Late July CUOK

Hello there, how is everyone doing? 🫢

Technically, I know it's August already, but I decided to pretend this isn't really the case 😭
Here's the Catching Up On Kpop (3rd part?) with: DREAMCATCHER, DKB, BAD VILLAIN, Chaeyeon, Taeyon, TWICE.

And here are the timestamps:
INTRO: 00:00
Korner: 01:11
DREAMCATCH...

Coming soon-ish 🫢

Hey guys, just wanted to keep you in the loop regarding the upcoming CUOK!
I just finished filming it and created the thumbnail for it, so I thought I share it with you first ^^

I won't be home from Thursday to next Monday, and so I'll try to have it edited and ready for you before then, but as a little spoiler: there were almost tears, chills, bopping, stank face and some discussion I'd love to hear your thoughts on 🙂‍↕️ amongst other things, of course.
And not to for...

Stray Kids 'ATE' album reaction

Hey hey 😊 how are you doing?

Just wanted to share with you my reaction to Stray Kids' latest album! The video cuts out near the end because I ran out of battery but the audio thankfully was still recording 😮‍💨 So I rushed my ranking a bit but I still managed to share part of it snsnsn
You might hear me mention c...

First listen: Kiss Of Life and Enhypen 💛

Hey there, how are you guys doing?

I finally came about filming these two first listens :

(fixed) Kiss Of Life 'Te quiero' ! I was so happy because I realized they had performed the song on a program and so I'd get to see the dance et concept too, only to see that they released the official performance vid...

CUOK July poll 2

Hello there! I hope everyone is doing well 😊

Here is the 2nd poll for this month! There are new options as well as some MV that were already there last time (considering the last lineup and how it was mainly just my own picks, I think I owe it to you to hopefully make it right this time).

Like I mentioned over on Youtube, I will of course check out Dreamcatcher's latest comeback 'Justice' and also DKB's MV that came out today! I saw the teaser and have a feeling we might like...

CUOK July sneak peek

Hello hello !!! I hope everyone's week is going alright 💛

Just wanted to let you know: I finished filming two parts for this month's CUOK 🥳

Now as you can see from the thumbnails, there has been some slight last minute modifications nssnns
I ended up adding K.Will's MV to my personal picks because I wanted to see where the plot was going to take us and let me tell you, I do not regret watching it! Well... maybe I regret it, but only because it broke my heart 😂
...

July CUOK poll

Hey there! Is it too early for a CUOK poll?

I am kind of itching to check out some MV that I missed last month, and so I am sorry for rushing you, but I'm gonna need your help to complete the lineup for the upcoming videos nssnssn
Btw, my own additions to this CUOK are: LISA, B.D.U and ONE PACT! The rest will be up to you guys!

I will most likely close this really soon, since I'm hoping to film later this week. I know this isn't giving you much time to vote, I'm sorry �...

Red Velvet 'Cosmic' album reaction

Please pretend with me for a second that I did listen to all the tracks in the correct order and that I did not just almost forget to listen to 'Last drop' 😃 😃 😃
Which would have been a monumental mistake, since I ended up ranking it first tied with another track ...
Thank you nsnsnss

Like always, if you're feeling up to it, then feel free to share your own ranking below!

I hope you guys enjoy and will see you all next time 💛

June CUOK

It's here!!! 🥳 I took my sweet time with this one, so sorry for making you wait so long!
They are long videos btw, so just letting you in case you were planning on watching the whole thing 😅

Here's the first part (with the timestamps):
INTRO: 00:00-01:19
KORNER: 01:19-03:07
XG: 03:07-09:13
A.C.E: 09:13-14:58...

Nayeon 'Na' album reaction

Hello guys, how are you all doing?

I managed to film this video last Friday, right after I checked 'ABCD' actually. I'm saying managed because, as you might know, there are STILL contributions outside my building, and they've been drilling nonstop since a week or so 😭 Which means it's either, I film knowing that the mic will pick up the sound or I try to find a moment when they're no drilling nsnssn

Anyway, love this album A LOT! I tried coming up with a ranking at the end ...

YG Special with BaeMon and TREASURE

Hello there! I hope you're all doing well 💛

Like mentioned previously, the videos this month might come at different time and as this one was the easiest and fastest to edit, I can already share it with you ^^ Hope you enjoy!

Thank you for your patience and see you guys next time! Take care everyone 😊

Sneak Peek

Hello there 😊 Just finished filming these two videos and wanted to keep you in the loop! You might notice there isn't the CUOK solo special above, and indeed 🙂‍↕️ I haven't recorded it yet! I'm planning on filming it this Friday afternoon.

 I'm hoping to finish editing at least the YG special before the end of the week, but the other video will probably take me a lot more time (I said this before, but I talk waaaaay too much snnsnsn).
So what might happen this month...

ATEEZ 'Golden Hour: Part 1' album reaction

Here it is 🥳!!! Sorry for posting is so late, I actually filmed this last week, but I had to delay the editing a bit because of modules, classes etc.
You will start hearing at some point the constructions outside, and since it's literally happening in front of my window, the mic definitely picks up on the noise of drilling, hammering etc. Like ATEEZ said 'gotta work' nsnsnsns

Btw, I saw that the boys went on Killing Voice?! Would you be interested in checking the video out toget...

aespa 'Armageddon' album reaction

me dropping this like SM dropped Karina on that car at the start of 'Supernova' snsnsnsn

Hey there 😂 So quick update on how I feel about both Supernova and Armageddon: I'm literally not original at all, because, I probably have the exact same reaction as everyone else ... I love both songs now! I don't know what it is this comeback, but it made me love aespa even more? The videos I see of them, the performances, the articles written on them, their interactions etc. All of th...

I-LAND 2 reaction

Hello there, how's everyone doing 😊 ?

I'd be curious to know how many of you would be interested in watching I-LAND 2 with me. From my understanding, the show has reached its middle point already?
Please let me know by voting below and depending on how many of you are interested, I'll consider checking the show out ^^

Thank you all and see you soon 💛

CUOK May/June Poll

Hello there, like we discussed previously, here's another CUOK poll 😅

We've also already kind of agreed on adding XG's cover 'Losing you' in here, tripleS for sure and a last minute addition of mine is TREASURE!

I also wanted to make another solo special with somo artists but have also seen other being mentioned over on Youtube so I've added them down below as well!
B.I 'tasty', Soojin 'Mona lisa', DO 'mars' and RM I'm not sure which to check with you so please vote ...

YUQI 'YUQ1' album reaction

Double drop 🥳

Since I did film my reaction to IVE and Yuqi back to back, I also decided to drop them at the same time here for you guys!

Thank you recommending her album btw 😊 Please tell me you've also felt the Britney Spears vibes because I can't be the only one nsnsns I know I grew up listening to Britney and so I have quite a few references of her but I didn't think I would get to mention her so many times here nsnsnsn

Thank you guys for watching and for your ...

IVE 'IVE SWITCH' album reaction

Hello there, I hope you are all doing well 💛

As promised, here is my reaction to IVE latest album, before the end of the month!
Once again, my favorite song on this album shouldn't be too much of a surprise, at least for those who know me a bit 🫢 But I did see people' comments saying that my fav song was also theirs and that they wished it ha an MV as well! And I 100% agree, I have a vision and it is wonderful nssnsn

Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy the video and I...

Just some news

Hello there, how's everyone doing?

I'm just quickly dropping by to let you know that I just finished filming my 'album listening' to IVE and YUQI 🙂‍↕️ I'll try to edit them asap so that I can share both with you before the end of the month!

Also, I did mention that there could be another CUOK before the end of the month and I might have to modify that statement just slightly. There will be another poll for the next CUOK before the end of the month for sure, I'm just un...

ZEROBASEONE 'You had me at HELLO' first listen

Hey again,

I'm doing a double release since it made more sense to have both my first listens come out at the same time 😅
At the time I recorded this, the lyrics video were not out yet but I still decided to check the remaining tracks on the album and I tried understanding by reading the korean lyrics and well, as expected, I did not understand much 😂 That did make it more challenging but at least, it allowed my mind to wander nsnsnss
My fav song here shouldn't be a surpr...

ENHYPEN - DARK MOON [MEMORABILIA] first listen

Hello there, how's everyone doing? 😊

So to be completely honest with you, I had no idea they had put out a new album until some people started mentioning it under a video 😭 Is it just me or had it been really hard to keep up recently?
Anyway, I checked out the four new tracks on the album (at least they're new to me nsnsn) and well, not to spoil anything but 'Lucifer' is really a showstopper! I won't say more but damn, what a song!
If you're feeling like it then please do...

Catching Up On XG

I might have the worst timing ever ?! 😂😭 What do you mean they just released a new video? And to make it worst it's a cover of FLO ?! FLO the group that I kept on bringing up when listening to XG?! Are you kidding me snsnsn I'm actually bitter 😂
Would you be interested in having it in the next CUOK? It won't come out any time soon but just asking to see how many of you would be interested!

Anyway, in the meantime, here's 2024-05-13 16:00:15 +0000 UTC View Post

May CUOK

Hello there, I hope you've had a nice weekend 😊

As promised, before the end of the week, here are the two Catching Up On Kpop videos :
Part 1 with Zico ft Jennie, KEP1ER, RIIZE, ILLIT
2024-05-12 16:00:14 +0000 UTC View Post

XG Catch Up coming soon-ish

I'm not gonna give too much away but just know I'm obsessed with them! You probably already knew that but I'm just making sure you know 😂

Coming soon 🤞🏼 And more...

Just finished filming these two CUOK! I'll start editing them tomorrow and hopefully they'll be out by the end of the week for you guys ^^

More parts should come btw (if I'm feeling up to it nsnsns):
-I'm already thinking of doing a special XG one.
-And one special video with MV/songs that aren't kpop! A while back, I asked for song recommendations on Youtube and I received a hefty amount of groups (from East Asia mostly) to check out so I was hoping to make a dedicated video! <...

Quick question: new thumbnail?

Hey there, so I suddenly felt like changing my thumbnails and wanted to know your opinion 🤔 (also it really might just be a "this is how I feel at this very moment and I am not sure how I will be feeling tomorrow" situation but still nsnssnsn)

-First of, do you think I should keep the current format?
-Second if not, what do you think of the new one (see attachments) ?
-Out of the two options, which do you prefer?

If you have any input or suggestions, I'm all ears 🙂...

CUOK May Poll

Hello there! How's everyone doing? ☺️

This might be an "early" CUOK but I think this might be the best way to go about things since this month looks to be comeback heavy 😆

I'm planning on making a lot of all-in-one videos: IVE, SEVENTEEN, ZEROBASEONE, NEW JEANS and ARTMS, which is why you won't see them below.
If I'm not wrong:
-IVE came back yesterday but are set to drop another MV on the 15th.
-Seventeen made a comeback also yesterday and will also release...

April CUOK videos

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

This month, to prevent any unnecessary hardships on either sides, I went back to a more traditional format, at least for the first part (4in1) and the second part I made it a 6in1 type of video.
Part 1 with Purple Kiss, Bang Yedam X Winter, BOA, Chungha
2024-04-25 16:00:17 +0000 UTC View Post

Coming soon 🫢

I'm currently editing these two videos; well the first part, which is the 4in1 video, is done but I am adding some new comments to the 2nd part (the 5th gen special edition) about the ADOR and HYBE current situation. Super interesting case which is why I wanted to ask about you guys' opinion too!

Also, you might have noticed but ARTMS isn't here and it's because I thought that that MV was their title track, which, not at all, it's only one pre-release amongst so many other pre-releases...
