Stray Kids 'HOP' album reaction

You already know which track is my favorite 🙂‍↕️
Do you guys happen to know if they will preform these solos during their world tour? Because I might just lose my mind nsnsnns

January CUOK ｜Poll

Hello there, how's everyone doing? 😊

I was looking for a list of the recent releases and from what I can see, there are a few pre-releases like : Minnie, IVE, KickFlip. These, I will probably just do a 2in1 when the title track drop which is why they won't be listed below.

And there aren't that many MV out yet this year, so the list might look a bit short compared to the previous months but still snnsns Please let me know which MV you'd like to see most in this new CUOK! 2025-01-16 17:00:11 +0000 UTC View Post

SBS Gayo Daejeon Performance Reaction: BABYMONSTER, GD, 2NE1

Seeing how you guys voted for BABYMONSTER and I personally chose to react to GD and 2NE1, I thought this would be best to make it somewhat of a YG moment 🙂‍↕️
One thing I forget to mention also in my video is that YG artists (whether they're under the label now or not), always give a performance you would want to watch again and again! Or maybe it's just me nsnsnsn I swear, once they step foot on a stage, they're commending it and I think it's pretty noticeable here!

SBS Gayo Daejeon Performance Reaction: LE SSERAFIM, aespa, Yujin X Karina

Hello there, I hope you're all doing alright 😊

I don't know if you would agree but, the Gayos really do bring some of the best stages/collabs ever?! I mean, then again, it might be the only time when groups and idols are actually "allowed" to collab 😭 Still, grateful for these moments because that Yujin X Karina stage? Yeah, this is one for the history books!

Hope you guys enjoy watching or re-watching some of these with me (I'm not judging 👀) and see you all in the ne...

2024 Recap : SAVE ONE DROP ONE

Hello there and Happy New Year 🥳 hope everyone's doing alright!

Now this video was clearly supposed to come out on the 31st but things got in the way and so I'm only able to share it with you guys today. You can go about it however you like, either as just a simple recap video or as a game. In any case, it is a loooonnnng video so prepare yourself nsnsnssn
I tried including as many releases as possible however it got to a point where matching MV together did not make much sense ...

SBS Gayo Daejeon Poll

Hello there, how's everyone doing? I'm sure you've seen but SBS Gayo Daejeon this year ... its lineup... the performances?! Yeah, I need to check some of them out with you guys!
And allow me to be the old kpop fan that I am today because I have already decided to watch GD's stage and, OF COURSE, 2NE1's performance!
You guys let me know which stage you'd like to see and I'll try to sit down soon to check them out!

Thank you all in advance and see you soon 💛

2024 AWARDS

Merry Christmas guys 🎄 For the occasion, here's the 2024 award video that you guys helped me create!!! Thank you all for your help, this literally wouldn't have been possible without you after all 🙂‍↕️

You might notice that a few categories (the sub-unit one for ex.) are missing from the video, and it is because the results were inconclusive.

It was super interesting to go through your answers. For some categories it felt like a no brainer for many of you and so th...

TWICE ' Strategy' album reaction

something magical, that part is literally stuck in my brain, I can't get it out 😭
I'll give you a SAVE ONE DROP ONE: Christmas edition : 'Magical' VS 'Doughnut' !

More seriously though, this was a very lowkey/subtle album, cute and enjoyable without being necessarily groundbreaking or too in your face. It almost felt like listening to a more 'adult' version of some of their past tracks, if you know what I mean.

Rosé 'Rosie' album reaction

This is a long one, so you might want to get comfy or just skip some moments honestly nsnsnsn Though I'd love to hear some of your thoughts regarding some of the things I mentioned in the video.
My favorite song on the album is logically ... 👀 But it might not be THE best on there, if that makes sense. You let me know!

December CUOK poll

Hey guys, how are you all doing? 😊

I hope you're in a Christmas-y mood because this is probably where this CUOK is headed snsnnss

ONEUS 'Rupert's drop' is already in the lineup, btw. As for THE 8, I just wanted to check with you which of his MV/visualizer you'd be more interested in seeing in this next CUOK and depending on the results here, I might check out more than one of his MV ^^

You might notice I didn't include any of the Stray Kids' solo MV here, and it's beca...

Late November and early December CUOK

Hello there, how's everyone doing? 😊

I feel like it's the same thing every year but, I lose track of time and can't seem to keep up with anything anymore  So many things came out recently and yeah, it's just hard to follow snsnsn Thank God you guys are helping with the lineups of these videos honestly!

Speaking of, he...

MAMA performances reaction

ATEEZ 'Golden Hour: Part 2' album reaction

Hello there, this one's coming super late, sorry about that!

So, I was the clown for thinking this was ATEEZ in their more fun and unserious era because this album was anything but 🤧 Each of the songs felt so adult, for different reasons but adult for sure.

One way I could potentially describe these 4 songs is by using the 4 seasons? For example, 'Man on fire' is 100% summer, 'Deep dive' is autumn because it was depressing, 'Selfish waltz' is spring because it's the season ...

GD and BIGBANG @ MAMA 2024 performance reaction

Need I say more? ssnsnnssns Please don't judge me for being this dramatic and sentimental because I would like to believe that I wasn't the only one balling their eyes out watching this! Never thought I'd cry to 'Fantastic baby' but never say never I guess. YG forever making history at MAMA is so ironic to me, but I love it still!

Hope you guys enjoy and see you in the next one, take care 💛

MAMA 2024 performance reaction (poll)

Hello there, I hope you guys are doing well 😊

Finally back home, and I'll get to finally check out some of the stages from this year MAMA.
Now, of course, I can't miss out on GD/BIG BANG's perf 🤧 I've been spoiled a bit of GIDLE's but you guys let me know if you'd like to watch it or re-watch it with me 🤭

Feel free to pick multiple stages if you'd like to, I've made sure to enable it this time! Btw, I'm only putting the group's name below, but I am obviously talking...

XG 'AWE' album reaction

When I tell you I've been listening to this whole album, back to back, not skipping one track?! Their discography truly is spectacular and so impressive already. There's not much that can be said apart from, this was freaking amazing, and I love this so much! 'In the rain' has quickly taken its spot in 'my most favorite songs of this year' list, actually.
I've been checking the set list for their Europe dates and haven't seen them adding these new songs to it yet so it looks like it won't...

ENHYPEN 'Daydream' reaction

Why are they whispering and why is it sending shivers down my neck?! It felt like they were brushing the surface of my brain with their voices right here and I don't know how to feel about that, it's not a feeling I get often nsnsnns
That said, this track only reinforces this album as being one of my favorite this year.

KEP1ER 'Tipi-tap' album reaction

This was actually the last album I checked on that day, and you might be able to tell, but my brain had logged out a while ago already so I am not sure how reliable my first impressions were here BUT, that said! 'Heart surf' still remains my favorite track on this album! I know many people already had their eyes on that track since the medley dropped, but I didn't think I would like it so much, honestly. But I do understand why 'Tipi-tap' is the title track, it's got this replay factor due to...

BABYMONSTER 'DRIP' album reaction

So, I'm still very much in my 'CLIC CLAK' era because I must listen to that song at least once a day for it to go well snnssn But, the rest of them album, 'DRIP' included is pretty great honestly. They really did such a good job, in my opinion, at making this nostalgic almost. Nostalgic because I got such a strong throwback vibes from a lot of these songs!
If I were to pick my favorite though ... apart from the two title tracks ... Should I spoil it already? Let's just say, I loved love o...

TXT 'The star chapter: SANCTUARY' reaction

This is your official disclaimer: I am complaining about the songs being so criminally short , almost to an annoying point snnsnssn Don't tell me I didn't warn you!
But that aside, I've got an update on this album and how I feel about it: it's actually a no skip album (like many of their album)! Like I mentioned in my reaction to 'Over the moon', I'm very much in my TXT era this year and I have really opened up to their discography; this is honestly such a nice album. Nothing too daunting...

ROSÉ - number one girl (official music video) REACTION

Hello there, you might wonder: why the hell is she posting this reaction here and not on Youtube? Well, it is because it's been blocked by WMG in almost every country out there, affecting 91% of my audience 😃😃😃😃😃

And because I don't know when or even if it will ever be lifted well, I figured I would still share this video with you guys here and also because of a very selfish reason ... I need to know you cried too snnssn
Me crying is a very common occurrence on my c...

Road To Kingdom: Ace of Ace (EP 8)

Hello there, I hope you're all doing great 😊

Looks like we've reached the end already; did it feel shorter to you as well or is it just me?
Regardless, it was actually a really pleasant watch, nothing too dramatic, quite wholesome even (the participants made it wholesome), the missions were alright too I'd say (would have loved to see more collab stages but oh well) and having MC Taemin perform during the final was a welcome addition!
I wonder why there was no audience this ...

sneak peek

Hey there, just wanted to keep you in the loop as to what's coming up 🫢

We've got a few first listening as you can see here, and I've already started working on the CUOK videos.

I'll also be sitting down to check out the final episode of Road To Kingdom asap, but just so you know, I've already been spoiled the winner 😅 still excited to see the performances though!

Thank you guys for your patience and see you soon 💛 Take care everyone!

Road To Kingdom: Ace of Ace (EP 7)

Hey guys, I hope you've all had a nice weekend 😊

This whole elimination thing man ... sigh Again, I don't want to spoil anyone in case you're not caught up, but I think many of us saw that coming, unfortunately.
I kind of get why they're doing elimination rounds to get people engaged, active etc. , but it really doesn't get any easier.
Plus, with the amount of points this mission will bring the winner, we're low-key back to square one nsnsnsn But oh well 🥲 2024-11-04 17:00:15 +0000 UTC View Post
