You won't believe Joohoney the rapper has a duality personality it is scary how different he is he can be so cute and then rap like there is no tomorrow. And I can't wait to see them in concert this summer
i feel like just as Mamamoo is called a "woman group" instead of a "girl group" , Monsta X is called a "man group" instead of a "boy group" , they have this classy, overflowing confidence in them that makes them seem very mature in their songs that separates them from the rest of groups
you calling kyun the main vocalist makes me a proud monbebe because he didn't used to be so comfortable with his singing voice and now he's singing in title tracks
Not me hearing Caitlin's screams in my mind whenever Austin pointed Minhyuk out... I'm pretty sure Minhyuk is her bias sir... so please watch out... You are going straight to dangerous ground. LMAO! I LOVE YOU BOTH SO PLEASE DON'T FIGHT LOL🤣❤
oh and btw seventeen and monsta x are best friends! they debuted just a couple months (or weeks?) apart and have been so supportive of each other since, there’s MonTeen compilations which are super cute to check out if you ever feel like it, they’re the bestest and funniest boys
Ah yes, Jim main vocalist, Kihyun main visual mmhmm... No, but they can all sing. Jim, as you called him..IM is one of the rappers, and Kihyun, who released voyager, is the main vocalist
They are actually my mother's favorite group lol I get to take her to see them finally in June after waiting for so long. We have an ongoing joke that she loves them more than her kids lol
I never noticed the Jim name tag in “you problem”😂 But no, that’s not actually his name. His stage name is I.M., his real name is Im Changkyun and his English name is Daniel. You were correct with Kihyun, the aggressive/cute rapper is Jooheon, the really handsome one in gambler is Shownu (he’s enlisted in the army rn), the the pretty one who you thought might be goofy is called Minhyuk and the one who you said had your favorite voice is Hyungwon. Since you’re not into aggressive sounding music,you probably won’t love most of their other titletracks (though I think you might like “jealousy” or “all in”). But I think you’d enjoy their English music, it has a totally different identity than their Korean music. Some of their b-sides that you might like have MVs, like “play it cool”, “find you” or “someone’s someone”. I’m glad you’re going into this group so open minded and not letting that first impression deter you, because while Monsta X are generally known for their noisy and aggressive sound, they actually have a good variety of genres in their discography and I’m sure you’ll find a few more songs you’ll like^^ [edit: fixed a bunch of typos]
23:20 yes!! Their “All About Luv” album is all english and they are ALLLLLLL bops!!! It’s worth giving a listen and I think Monsta X has some of the best all english songs in kpop
Monsta X isn't always aggressive, but they are always powerful. Jooheon wrote Gambler and Rush Hour. He has some solo stuff too which is quite different, you might like that! Jooheon DOES play drums. and Hyungwon is a DJ Some suggestions you might like: Rollercoaster, Newton, Shine Forever. My favorite is Follow, and that whole album is my fav.
I really hesitated to listen to listen Monsta X, but their last two Korean albums are outstanding-English ones too. To me, they are unique in that ALL of them are beautiful vocalists. Kihyun is the power vocalist and many reactors have described him as one of the most versatile vocalists in K-pop. They all certainly have unique timbres. The sheer amount of talent oozing out of Joohoney is astounding. Hope you continue to enjoy them! Warning: if you listen to the song The Dreaming, bring tissues. It’s beautiful.
The way all your assumptions were wrong made me laugh so much😂Okay imma fill you in. Our leader, Shownu 4:35 is currently in the military. He's the oldest, lead vocalist and main dancer. Second is Minhyuk 24:20, he's a sub vocalist and lead visual. Kihyun 27:48 main vocalist and god of kpop. He just came out with his solo album Voyager. That was the hyung line. Hyungwon 27:26 sub vocalist, main visual and lead dancer. Joohoney 28:06 main rapper and last I.M 27:11 lead rapper and both sub vocalist honestly. That was our producer/composer/lyricist maknae line. From oldest to youngest. Jooheon produced both Gambler and Rush Hour. I hope you'll check out their english album The Dreaming. It's one of the best. Thank you for reacting to them❤
glad you checked them out! it took them a while to blow up domestically, but they’re really popular in korea now. they’re great performers, kihyun and jooheon are standout vocalists in the industry. also changkyun is so 😍
Monsta x members (oldest to youngest) Shownu - currently enlisted (the member you pointed out in gambler the one with the bodyguards he is the Leader, and Main Dancer) Minhyuk (the one you pointed out in the beginning of Rush hour he is Sub vocalist, visual) Kihyun (wearing the suit with a mesh type shirt in one day, he is the Main vocalist) Hyungwon (your favorite voice so far in One day, he’s the lead dancer, sub vocalist, visual) Jooheon or Joohoney (he has the mullet and space buns in rush hour, main rapper and sub vocalist) I.M (he is the one that says “eat this” in rush hour, maknae and lead rapper) Monsta X has released 2 full English albums “all about luv” and “the dreaming” All about luv was released on 2/14/20 and the dreaming was released on 12/10/21
I recommend you "Middle of the night", "You can't hold my heart" and "Who do you love" songs, they are amazing. I'm multifandom, but if I have to choose only one grup to hear the rest of my life, it will be Monsta X, beacuase I also love the songs in their albums, especially All about luv, Fatal Love and The dreaming albums. I usually don't like other song that are not title tracks to be honest in other kpop groups. But Monsta X is one of my few exceptions along with Shinee and Seventeen.
Also, since you liked "One day" i believe you will like this songs: Nobody else (sexy, but yet amazing vocals), UR (also slow song, and on YT you can find live version and its stunning), The Dreaming (one of the song from their last english album, emotional one), Mercy (dark, desperate song with also amazing vocals). Monsta X is a group full of all arounders and their live vocal sounds even better than recording versions.
If you like the less aggressive songs more you might want to check out “Find You” and their other English releases, since I feel like they usually tend to be less aggressive. Monsta X has actually released multiple English albums and all the songs on there are bops (like always), so if you have time for that, you definitely might want to check those out!
Seventeen and Monsta X have a great friendship so it made me happy to see you react to them!! there's fun compilation videos of the two groups interacting you could react to
their english albums are my absolute favorites! literally topped my most listened albums every year they’re released, the songs are a lot more chill and vocal centered compared to most of their korean title tracks which are more rap focused (cause theyre like top 3 best raplines in the industry) so you might enjoy them a bit more
I feel SOOOO happy that you've noticed Hyungwon and Minhyuk's voices - more than once! 😍 I think these two are the most overlooked by other reactors, when they are not familiar with Monsta X, so it's amazingly satisfying that you've pointed them out ❤️ It was funny when you've said I.M (rapper and maknae) looks like the seductive one and then that he is probably their main vocalist - I think you thought they were two different people, but it was still I.M 😉 It just shows how talented all of them are, when their rappers are such great singers that new reactors question if they are the same people haha Also yes, that was the "aggressive rapper" singing. I laughed when you thought he shouldn't be cute, because he's the cutest of them all (and retired aegyo master! - "retired" because he's not doing it that much anymore, but he used to be the top aegyo idol 😂). And when you were sure that Kihyun (main vocalist and my bias) is probably the main visual I was like YESSSSS, THANK YOU 😁 I also think he should be in their visual line 😍 Probably someone already answered that, but you were right about them starting their military service and that's why only 5 members were in the last MVs.
So nice to see you check MONSTA X again. MONSTA X is indeed the aggressive group, it's their trademark since debut and it's making them stand out but...they have their soft songs. If you want to see their vocals, probably you should check out : Ride With U, Broken Heart, Mercy, Lost in the Dream and their english song The Dreaming.
Yes they released 2 already. I suggest you check them out for yourself because honestly, not being biased, their English albums are top tier. They're very versatile. I don't think i've seen a more versatile group than them. I don't know what they can't do. I think they can do anything. 🤧
I too love the vocal moments. Both of their English albums are filled with incredible vocals. If you like One Day, you should check out the Middle of the Night and Someone's Someone mvs.
I am so glad you decided to react to them, they are truly a legendary 3rd gen kpop group. Even though during the years they have experimented a lot with different sounds, they are best known as the pioneres of the ‘noise music’ in kpop, pushing a sound during a time when not a lot of people were being receptive to it which is very funny because now it’s the sound that best describes the 4th generation of male kpop groups. Truly ahead of their time and probably the most influential 3rd gen group when it comes to music itself. The ‘agressive’ rap line was also one of the first ones to exist in kpop while now it’s very common as well. Even though the kpop industry itself recognizes their talent and influence, it seems like the kpop fans community doesn’t give them the credit that they truly deserve and that makes me sad because this group is a true gem in kpop that has done a lot for the genre. I hope you find the time to react to their last mini album ‘No Limit’ which also holds Rush Hour, it is an amazing body of work, I feel like you will like it a lot. Their english album ‘The Dreaming’ is also INCREDIBLE ( idk what you meant about the divisive opinions on it, I feel like everybody loved it from what I saw... ). Thank you for your reaction to them and I hope you find the time to react to their new sister group, IVE who is making waves in the kpop community just 4 months after their debut. They only have 4 songs ( perfect for a video reaction ) and they are all amazing, breaking records left and right. 🖤🥺
Ahhh! Monsta X!!! They’re one of those groups that can pull off just about anything. And their English albums are flawless. And yes, Shownu is in the military. Just like 400 days left until he’s free 😭
Literally just the other day I searched up if you’ve reacted to monsta x then you post this reaction 👏👏 Also I know you usually prefer the vocalists (their vocalists are amazing) but this group easily has one of the best rap lines in kpop
it’s almost unanimously agreed upon that Monsta X makes the best english songs out of all kpop groups and as someone who is usually really ambivalent or aversive to english kpop…… i have to agree
They released a full english album and many people love it. Actually most people love it cause you can actually understand the lyrics and all are different. Some people just release rumor about them releasing an english album to have fame (but mx themselves say that the album is for monbebe, to connect more to their fans)
MONSTA X with 6 members (5 active members now) Shownu - Leader (in military service) Minhyuk - visual the goovy one Kihyun - Main vocalist Hyungwon - visual as well JooHoney - main rapper / vocalist I.M - rapper (you called him jim) as vocalist too
Both their English albums, All About Luv & The Dreaming are excellent. Monsta X makes, hands down the best English songs, helped by the fact that they are all pretty good at the language so their pronunciation is on point.
Sir Austin you are probably the most genuine kpop reactor please don't change like those overacting clowns these days lol. Just keep doing you and don't be afraid to say your honest opinions
omg!! ur reacting to seventeen's greatest besties, Monsta X!! They are one of my ult groups along with Seventeen and they are just superrr talented, their songs are so good! thank you so much for checking them out
They're one of my main groups , MonTeen (monsta x & seventeen) they're close friends btw including the fandoms , and one day is one of my fav. songs ever I remember being obsessed with it and listening to it on a loop nonstop for weeks literally😭😭 , and I'm most definitely obsessed with 'Hero' old but gold
Monsta X started as a very aggressive sound with a lot of hiphop influences, but as the years go on they wanted to try different genres because THEY CAN. They have the talent, the vocal range, the performance, the rappers and the charisma to pull off any genre they want. They are famous in SK for their "manly" image and the sound is often referred to as their own "monsta x sound" because despite their fluxuation in genre, they are STILL recognisable as Them. They are also king of b-sides so if you dont like the aggressive sound from their TT's then they have some absolutely beautiful slow/fun b-sides that would surprise you. thank you for reacting to them in such an honest way and giving actually valid commentary, i really enjoyed that :)
I'm glad you got back to their videos! ANNND yes everyone that literally listen to their title tracks they think all of their songs are like this hahahahahah but most of their bsides are funky, sweet and even ballads!!! I would recommend you to listen to their eng album, they have two btw, All About Luv and The Dreaming, the songs are AMAZING!!!! and for B-sides I rec "I got Love", "Ride With U", "White Love", "Sorry I'm not Sorry", "Night View", we have cute videos and live videos by them for these. I think you gonna love it ps: you already know them now since you watched the guide hahahahaha, so its funny to see that you thought their rapper was actually their main vocal :3 their voices are amazing, you can see that on their eng album since there their rappers sing and I think only 1 song has a rap part.
My boys. The only boy group I Stan. They are aggressive- Hero, All In, Stuck, Fighter, Dramarama, Jealousy, Shoot Out, Alligator. Fallow and Fantasia are not as aggressive. I still miss Wonho as I will always be OT7, but even with 6 and right now 5 members, for Shownu being in military service, will always be my boys. I know EXO or VIXXcan be kind of aggressive with some tracks, but Monsta X is another level. Though their English tracks are not as aggressive and Find You is not aggressive either. Their newer Korean stuff is still rather aggressive, but not like the early stuff- Rush Hour is probably the one that reminds me most of Classic Monsta X. They now have 2 full English Albums- All About Lov(Who do you Love, Middle of the Night )and The Dreaming. One Day is on The Dreaming. They also did a song with Steve Aoki called Play it cool that has an English version and Korean version. Shoot out was the first I listened to. Then Alligator, Hero, Fighter, Dramarama, Jealousy, All in, Stuck, Rush. I had watched some stuff that had a story out of order when I was first getting into them. Although it only took to Hero and Fighter, so 4 or 5 songs to be hooked and be a Monbebe. I can’t wait to finally be able to see them in May. Their comeback is scheduled for the 11th- the day before my Dreamcatcher girls Apocalypse: Save Us- Maison Comeback. Shoot out, Hero and Fighter are my top 3 and I am never sure which is actually my favorite as those 3 always seem to be switching places. For Gambler, The member that walked into the hotel room at the beginning is Joohoney- one of the rap line. Minhyuk starts off then Hyungwon. Kihyun is the third and main vocalist- vocal king who recently made his solo debut with Voyager. Kihyun has done covers of Beliver and Natural.. he kills anything he sings with his voice. The member that got your attention for how fine he looks is Shownu. IM is the other rapper- My Suit is black, my suit is fresh. Hot as F. Both of my rappers can sing and Joohoney has the singing voice is a freaking Angel.One Day is a beautiful song. Hyungwon was the member with the voice you commented on. Rush Hour- Joohoney has the red mullet. Minhyuk is who you noticed. IM’s rap is totally a diss or that’s how I take it with calling competition a dwarf.. Shownu is my bias, but Kihyun and Minhyuk (and Wonho for older stuff) are my bias wreckers. They are aggressive in style, but the members are adorable, especially Joohoney our honey bee. You Problem let’s them show how quirky they are. You Problem and Rush Hour did not have Shownu. They have been around since May 15, 2015. product of the competition show No Mercy. Wonho was apart of the 93 line, lead vocalist and a visual. Shownu- leader, main dancer, vocalist, 1992 Minhyuk- sub vocalist, visual, 1993 Kihyun- main vocalist 1993 Hyungwon- sub vocalist, visual, lead dancer, 1994 Joohoney- rapper, vocalist, 1994 IM- makane, rapper, vocalist, 1996
Hero and Jealousy are my favorite Korean tracks from them closely followed by Fantasia. I also recommend their English stuff, specifically Who Do You Love and Play It Cool
monsta x is a really busy group!! they're constantly releasing mvs and promoting. this is because they have korean, japanese and english songs. when covid wasn't a thing they would go on world tours during the times they weren't promoting an album as well
Thank you for reacting to MX! They have released 2 English albums (both received extremely well) and it's pretty much agreed by everyone that they hands down surpass everyone (in KPop) in regards to English songs 👍🏽 What's most impressive about this group is their eclectic discography. They have pulled off such a variety of music and concepts, the only other group I can think of who's managed to produce such a varied discography is Shinee. So its not surprising that these 2 groups are in my top 3 groups lol. I really do hope that you'll react to more of their music, perhaps their English stuff as it seems like you're drawn more towards that? Also a guide may be really helpful to react to 🙂👍🏽
Austin you gotta watch more monsta x MVs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Check their older stuff like "beautiful", "shout out", "jealousy" "fighter" and more more there are so many more I live this group so much
Honestly the only Kpop group i’m checking lately is them (their music is so my vibe) to me they are soooo unique and extremely talented and the fact that they do their own title songs 🥵 Their title songs are aggressive but this is the part when people should give Monsta X a chance cuz they are known for having the best b sides in Kpop they are like a 💎 that people need to find. And they’re sooo diverse like hello have you ever heard of a kpop group that can do so well in so many genres i dont think so
Ohhh you should listen to Mercy, is a b-side from their latest Korean album No limit. I think you'll like it, Mercy it's a masterpiece produced by one of the members (Hyungwon) 🕴🏽🕴🏽🕴🏽💜
their korean title tracks are mostly really powerful and energetic, but their bsides are more on the vocal heavy side and soooo good!!! they also released two english albums already and you should definitely check out their last one 'the dreaming', because i think you would LOVE it! btw no one from the rap line was missing in the last video, they’re just also pretty amazing vocalists, especially jooheon the main rapper. the one who is missing is their leader shownu and yes he’s doing his military service right now. btw mx will have their next comeback in two weeks on april 26th!!!! ❤️
Appreciate you dipping a toe in the MX waters again and glad you found something you vibe with in One Day. I do think you'd also like Voyager. It leans retro in a good and not gimmicky way plus Kihyun's vocals suit it well.
I cant believe you said I.M is the main vocalist ,😂 omg that makes me feel so proud of him, but you should know he is one of the main rappers , anyways his and jooheons (the other main rapper) vocals are amazing too !!.
Thank you for checking out Monsta X again! Ok, so the thing you need to know about them is - Monsta X are known as intimidating, sexy, beast idols in the industry, but they are honestly so much more than that. They are the absolute kindest, sweetest, funniest, and incredibly hard working men out there. They are well known for their diverse sound and style, whilst always maintaining that Monsta X flavor throughout... if you're a Monbebe, otherwise everyone has a stereotype that their sound is always loud and hype, because a lot of their Korean title tracks are selected for high impact performance purposes, as that is one of Monsta X's many strengths. The X in their name is the mathematical X - an unknown variable, there to tell us from the get go that they will always experiment with sound and style and not limit themselves sonically or linguistically. They are extremely versatile artists when you dive in past the surface, as their music is incredibly eclectic in style, genre blending and language (Korean, Japanese and English, plus a little splash of Spanish here and there) They can do hard Hip Hop, smooth R&B, soft emotional ballads, cute pop, raging EDM, and EVERYTHING in between. They released their second Full English album The Dreaming on the 10th of December, only a few weeks after releasing their Korean mini album No Limit, which Rush Hour is the title track to (most recent Korean comeback), both albums are incredible and showcase their range. Their English songs have a different vibe to their Korean and Japanese work, and that allows them to never remain stagnant and complacent, they are a 7 year old group that continually improve and expands on their skillset, and broaden their discography (keeping it fresh and exciting for Monbebe) This thirst for freshness and range has shaped them into the incredible all rounders in the industry that they are. At the end of the day THEY are the key factor to their music, the thing that links it all is THEM, THEY are the magical ingredient tying it all together. Monsta X have something for everyone, but so many people sleep on them. I hope that changes one day. I really look forward to seeing how your journey with them evolves!
My bias for this group is Joohoney, his duality is insane! Along with Kihyun, which you pointed out, him and IM both have solo work out. My favorite for my bias is still his 그댄 행복에 살텐데 cover (guarantee you will love it), just barely over Smoky that makes me cry every time. Your assumptions of the members had me rollin' 🤣 and the one missing was Shownu and you were right about him being in the military. Their All About Luv album is still my favorite one and is in full english. Thank you as always for your honest reactions!
Hi Austin, I'm so glad you decided to give Monsta X another chance. There's a lot to be discovered about this group of talented (and sexy) men (not boys). I too was initially a little perplexed about their harder hitting stuff, but I was at the very beginning of my kpop journey then. Now I LOVE everything they do. From what I know about you from your past reactions, I'm sure you'll enjoy their English releases the best. I have still to listen to the first album, but The Dreaming is amazing (it debuted on Billboard around the 20th place, which isn't bad at all). I listened to it while cooking my Christmas dinner last year and they both were fabulous (album and dinner). Had I listened to Rush Hour, I'd probably have burned it (Eat this! LOL) Gambler is a sophisticated dance track. I love that its sound slow and hard at the same time and it does give them an opportunity to show vocals. Plus, the outfits are insane and they're clearly gorgeous. One Day is too short for me too! I love it. They all speak pretty good English and their enunciation on English tracks is impeccable. Rush Hour shows their stronger side, but vocals are hard hitting there too. The rapline is on a different planet in this group, with Joohoney (author of this and Gambler) and I.M. (Jim 😂, one of my biases) You Problem is really cute. It gave me Bee Gees and Earth, Wind and Fire vibes. Hope you check out more from them, including live performances, because I'm sure you'll appreciate their vocal talent.
Finally! Monsta x is one of my favourite groups. I recommend you to also watch Ride with you, their b sides are the best! If you can, also check kihyun album Voyager, there are only three songs but they sound amazing! In my opinion he is one of the best vocalists in kpop
Yay! I am so happy you are checking out Monsta X again! They are one of my top 3 groups alongside BTS and EXO. They have a WIDE range of songs and some of my favourite albums, they are also amazing live performers and the sweetest and goofiest guys! Jooheon the intense rapper is actually more like the You Problem mv, he is super sweet and is known for is Aegyo haha The One missing from the last two MV's was their Leader Shownu and he indeed started his military service. I really hope you check out more of their stuff! They really have an AMAZING discography!
i feel like you neeeed to react to Hyunwon DJing as H.One, he had been to ultra korea and there are concert vids of their encore of him. The two rappers jooheon / joohoney and changkyun / IM have a rap Sambakja, where i think youll get a kick cause Jooheon playus the drums, he even broke his drumsticks on tour lol edit: i see you know seventeen so i think you should look at monsta x and seventeen moments it makes my MonCarat heart happy first vid ive seen of yours though and im livinggggggggggggg for it
please do react to them one by one. they're really really talented istg, plus they have different personalities, they're very loving and entertaining. btw, the one you've been pointing out a lot for being aggressive... that's jooheon, THE real definition of "duality" he can be cute and pretty, and can be aggressive and a rock n' roll vibe dude at the same time. they also have solid songs. from title tracks to b-sides. and btw... KIHYUN IS A POWERFULL VOCAL!! and I'm not being overdramatic. if we're gonna top the best 3rd gen. main BG vocalist. he'll always and forever will be on the top 5. next to SM artists.
Monsta X isn't one of my top 5 groups (I stan like...everyone) but their English songs are THE BEST. Literally no kpop english tracks are even CLOSE to as good as Monsta X has made. They sound so natural and their enunciation is INCREDIBLE considering only one member is fluent in English. SO good. Best in the industry. I'm kind of bitter how good they are and how overlooked they are.
Kind of like these videos Monsta X really do have extreme duality. They're known for there masculine and somewhat aggressive sound, but are the biggest fluffballs off stage. Like I want to protect them lol. Their two rappers form one of the most killer rap lines in Kpop, but those two are also the maknaes. They also are a bit unique in Kpop because they have members with bigger physiques (one of whom left bet is successful and loved solo artist). Ironicly those two most intimidating looking are possibly the biggest fluffballs of them all. Both main rappers and incredible vocalists and most of their vocalists can rap if they need to. Some classic songs I hope you get to check out are "Jealousy" "Fighter" and "Beautiful" Ithink you'd really like "Jealousy!"
monsta x korean and japanese tracks are "aggressive" but their english tracks are more on the softer side. you can check out their english albums "All About Luv" and "The Dreaming"
Monsta X has the best English albums for a Kpop group! Their first one was All About Luv, and more recently they released The Dreaming. Caitlin B loved them, and I think you will too! ❤️
the guy in the first video that you said is handsome/pretty is shownu [main dancer,lead vocalist,leader] he wasn't in the other videos because he's in the military 4:31 the guy you liked in rush hour is minhyuk [vocalist,visual] 15:32 he's also at 27:30 the one with the red mullet is joohoney [main rapper,sub-vocalist] 15:28 the guy at 24:52 is indeed the aggressive rapper the one at 26:56 is I.M [lead rapper,sub-vocalist,maknae] he is the seductive one he's also the one at 27:19 at 27:50 is kihyun [main vocalist]
Normally here for the SVT reactions but Monsta is also one of my fave groups (w/ SHINee who also happens to be kinda friends with svt, more specifically, Key) I love Monsta X, and the members, I’m very fond and ult those 3 groups But my comment is to tell that actually Monbebes and Carats are besties!! lmao since both groups debuted in May 2015 (like one or two weeks apart form each other) they promoted their debuts and rookie songs together and became friends, even Scoups said to Monbebes to be friends with Carats since they are friends little did he know we are already besties And this is additional bc I loveeee them being besties/interactions but the latest one we knew about was Changkyun and Wonwoo going to a musical like 2 months ago supporting Nu’est Baekho and Kihyun calling Woozi on their bday bc the share day, back in November, and SVT being supportive towards Wonho in the AAAwards las December So yes Carats and Monbebes stay winning 💕
Oh it would be great if you could react "dreaming" album, this is a piece of art and maybe one of you favorite tastiest album from Monsta, they already have their full second English album, and maybe the main song of this album could be your favorite song from them... And about your questions, kihyun was the person who song Voyager, he is the main vocalist, the other one Joohoney and I.M are the rappers and they also can sing very well, Minhyuk and hyungwon probably are one of the best visuals however I consider all of them are visuals. Finally, you're right Shownu, the leader, is in the military service :3 Wonho keeps being sexy and awesome in all the senses, thanks for your reaction
Austiiiiin, Monsta X and Seventeen are actually best friends! They are my ult groups and their relationship is the cutest, you should check it out in the future!
Monsta X and A.C.E are my favourite groups (Taemin my favourite soloist) so it's great having these reactions. Monsta X are such a talented group and Kihyun is one of the best vocalist (should check out his album - Rain is my favourite and also his covers which show his vocals off). Joohoney and I.M are one of the best rap duos too. Enjoy becoming a Monbebe you won't be disappointed. 😊
They NEED to be in Kingdom! They have the discography and multiple members who can switch from rap to singing. Plus, they would be able to do their own flair to other’s songs.
You Problem shows their real personalities the most of these MVs. They are adorable goofballs irl. Agressive rapper Jooheon is the one with the biggest duality, both in personality and vocals(because the man has the voice of an angel). The one missing in the last to MVs is our gorgeous leader Shownu, main dancer and lead vocal, who's in the military. Song suggestions: Follow, Beastmode, Hero, Shine Forever, Newton, Breathe For You, Find You, Sorry I'm Not Sorry
They released TWO full English albums and everybody loved it
You won't believe Joohoney the rapper has a duality personality it is scary how different he is he can be so cute and then rap like there is no tomorrow. And I can't wait to see them in concert this summer
Honey is my fav 😍
Yes, you're right! That's Kihyun who recently released his debut single album, "Voyager". I hope you check it out because the album's so good!
i feel like just as Mamamoo is called a "woman group" instead of a "girl group" , Monsta X is called a "man group" instead of a "boy group" , they have this classy, overflowing confidence in them that makes them seem very mature in their songs that separates them from the rest of groups
you calling kyun the main vocalist makes me a proud monbebe because he didn't used to be so comfortable with his singing voice and now he's singing in title tracks
27:29 you're right about Minhyuk being a goofy one! It's funny that he got your attention the most because he's very close with Seungkwan too!
OF COURSE HE IS.
I think they are all goofy in their own way and also weird that's why I love them. But Minhyuk is like the sunshine of the group lol
Yeah Monsta X has one of the best rap lines in kpop and Kihyun the one with orange hair in Rush Hour is hands down one of the best 3rd gen vocalists.
Accurate description of MX! The best rapper and one of the best vocalists in kpop are in one group named Monsta X.
Not me hearing Caitlin's screams in my mind whenever Austin pointed Minhyuk out... I'm pretty sure Minhyuk is her bias sir... so please watch out... You are going straight to dangerous ground. LMAO! I LOVE YOU BOTH SO PLEASE DON'T FIGHT LOL🤣❤
oh and btw seventeen and monsta x are best friends! they debuted just a couple months (or weeks?) apart and have been so supportive of each other since, there’s MonTeen compilations which are super cute to check out if you ever feel like it, they’re the bestest and funniest boys
Ah yes, Jim main vocalist, Kihyun main visual mmhmm...
No, but they can all sing. Jim, as you called him..IM is one of the rappers, and Kihyun, who released voyager, is the main vocalist
They are actually my mother's favorite group lol I get to take her to see them finally in June after waiting for so long. We have an ongoing joke that she loves them more than her kids lol
I never noticed the Jim name tag in “you problem”😂 But no, that’s not actually his name. His stage name is I.M., his real name is Im Changkyun and his English name is Daniel. You were correct with Kihyun, the aggressive/cute rapper is Jooheon, the really handsome one in gambler is Shownu (he’s enlisted in the army rn), the the pretty one who you thought might be goofy is called Minhyuk and the one who you said had your favorite voice is Hyungwon.
Since you’re not into aggressive sounding music,you probably won’t love most of their other titletracks (though I think you might like “jealousy” or “all in”). But I think you’d enjoy their English music, it has a totally different identity than their Korean music. Some of their b-sides that you might like have MVs, like “play it cool”, “find you” or “someone’s someone”.
I’m glad you’re going into this group so open minded and not letting that first impression deter you, because while Monsta X are generally known for their noisy and aggressive sound, they actually have a good variety of genres in their discography and I’m sure you’ll find a few more songs you’ll like^^
[edit: fixed a bunch of typos]
I’ve also never noticed the Jim name tag
I mean I guess Jim is close to I.M just minus the j 😂😂
28:59 no sir the other rapper is actually the one where you said "he's gotta be the main vocalist" 😂
24:50 THIS IS LITERALLY THE BEST DEFINITION OF JOOHONEY!!!! The duality is strong in him haahahahhahah
23:20 yes!! Their “All About Luv” album is all english and they are ALLLLLLL bops!!! It’s worth giving a listen and I think Monsta X has some of the best all english songs in kpop
Monsta X isn't always aggressive, but they are always powerful. Jooheon wrote Gambler and Rush Hour.
He has some solo stuff too which is quite different, you might like that!
Jooheon DOES play drums.
and Hyungwon is a DJ
Some suggestions you might like: Rollercoaster, Newton, Shine Forever.
My favorite is Follow, and that whole album is my fav.
I really hesitated to listen to listen Monsta X, but their last two Korean albums are outstanding-English ones too. To me, they are unique in that ALL of them are beautiful vocalists. Kihyun is the power vocalist and many reactors have described him as one of the most versatile vocalists in K-pop. They all certainly have unique timbres. The sheer amount of talent oozing out of Joohoney is astounding. Hope you continue to enjoy them! Warning: if you listen to the song The Dreaming, bring tissues. It’s beautiful.
23:20 you are correct, Austin! And, honestly, the ENTIRE album is incredible! Definitely worth checking all the songs out hahahah (:
The way all your assumptions were wrong made me laugh so much😂Okay imma fill you in. Our leader, Shownu 4:35 is currently in the military. He's the oldest, lead vocalist and main dancer. Second is Minhyuk 24:20, he's a sub vocalist and lead visual. Kihyun 27:48 main vocalist and god of kpop. He just came out with his solo album Voyager. That was the hyung line. Hyungwon 27:26 sub vocalist, main visual and lead dancer. Joohoney 28:06 main rapper and last I.M 27:11 lead rapper and both sub vocalist honestly. That was our producer/composer/lyricist maknae line. From oldest to youngest. Jooheon produced both Gambler and Rush Hour. I hope you'll check out their english album The Dreaming. It's one of the best. Thank you for reacting to them❤
glad you checked them out! it took them a while to blow up domestically, but they’re really popular in korea now. they’re great performers, kihyun and jooheon are standout vocalists in the industry. also changkyun is so 😍
Monsta x members (oldest to youngest)
Shownu - currently enlisted (the member you pointed out in gambler the one with the bodyguards he is the Leader, and Main Dancer)
Minhyuk (the one you pointed out in the beginning of Rush hour he is Sub vocalist, visual)
Kihyun (wearing the suit with a mesh type shirt in one day, he is the Main vocalist)
Hyungwon (your favorite voice so far in One day, he’s the lead dancer, sub vocalist, visual)
Jooheon or Joohoney (he has the mullet and space buns in rush hour, main rapper and sub vocalist)
I.M (he is the one that says “eat this” in rush hour, maknae and lead rapper)
Monsta X has released 2 full English albums “all about luv” and “the dreaming”
All about luv was released on 2/14/20 and the dreaming was released on 12/10/21
I recommend you "Middle of the night", "You can't hold my heart" and "Who do you love" songs, they are amazing. I'm multifandom, but if I have to choose only one grup to hear the rest of my life, it will be Monsta X, beacuase I also love the songs in their albums, especially All about luv, Fatal Love and The dreaming albums. I usually don't like other song that are not title tracks to be honest in other kpop groups. But Monsta X is one of my few exceptions along with Shinee and Seventeen.
Also, since you liked "One day" i believe you will like this songs: Nobody else (sexy, but yet amazing vocals), UR (also slow song, and on YT you can find live version and its stunning), The Dreaming (one of the song from their last english album, emotional one), Mercy (dark, desperate song with also amazing vocals). Monsta X is a group full of all arounders and their live vocal sounds even better than recording versions.
Their English albums top every other groups English releases for me !!
Side note exctied too as we know my svt ults release is going to be English!!
NO YOU’RE SO RIGHT!! LIKE- IM SORRY-
other groups take notes 🙊
If you like the less aggressive songs more you might want to check out “Find You” and their other English releases, since I feel like they usually tend to be less aggressive. Monsta X has actually released multiple English albums and all the songs on there are bops (like always), so if you have time for that, you definitely might want to check those out!
Seventeen and Monsta X have a great friendship so it made me happy to see you react to them!! there's fun compilation videos of the two groups interacting you could react to
one of my most listened groups ever, they’re so amazing and deserve everything 💕 thanks for reacting!
their english albums are my absolute favorites! literally topped my most listened albums every year they’re released, the songs are a lot more chill and vocal centered compared to most of their korean title tracks which are more rap focused (cause theyre like top 3 best raplines in the industry) so you might enjoy them a bit more
Our talented Joohoney wrote/composed/produced Gambler, Rush Hour, and their next title track Love from their album that’s coming April 26th 💜
I feel SOOOO happy that you've noticed Hyungwon and Minhyuk's voices - more than once! 😍 I think these two are the most overlooked by other reactors, when they are not familiar with Monsta X, so it's amazingly satisfying that you've pointed them out ❤️
It was funny when you've said I.M (rapper and maknae) looks like the seductive one and then that he is probably their main vocalist - I think you thought they were two different people, but it was still I.M 😉
It just shows how talented all of them are, when their rappers are such great singers that new reactors question if they are the same people haha
Also yes, that was the "aggressive rapper" singing. I laughed when you thought he shouldn't be cute, because he's the cutest of them all (and retired aegyo master! - "retired" because he's not doing it that much anymore, but he used to be the top aegyo idol 😂).
And when you were sure that Kihyun (main vocalist and my bias) is probably the main visual I was like YESSSSS, THANK YOU 😁 I also think he should be in their visual line 😍
Probably someone already answered that, but you were right about them starting their military service and that's why only 5 members were in the last MVs.
So nice to see you check MONSTA X again. MONSTA X is indeed the aggressive group, it's their trademark since debut and it's making them stand out but...they have their soft songs. If you want to see their vocals, probably you should check out : Ride With U, Broken Heart, Mercy, Lost in the Dream and their english song The Dreaming.
Yes Monsta X!!! My favorite Monsta X song is hands down Fantasia. Damn I love these boys!
Yes another Fantasia stan! 👏👏
@@kaipo_0603 Yes I listened to that song basically everyday!
Kihyun is the main vocalist and he just released a solo album. You should check out his song Voyager which just came out last month.
I can unfortunately only watch you react to Rush Hour since it's the only one I know but I'm excited!
I'm still confused...LOL! But "One Day & You Problem" were my favs! You should check them out!
Yes they released 2 already. I suggest you check them out for yourself because honestly, not being biased, their English albums are top tier. They're very versatile. I don't think i've seen a more versatile group than them. I don't know what they can't do. I think they can do anything. 🤧
I too love the vocal moments. Both of their English albums are filled with incredible vocals. If you like One Day, you should check out the Middle of the Night and Someone's Someone mvs.
I am so glad you decided to react to them, they are truly a legendary 3rd gen kpop group. Even though during the years they have experimented a lot with different sounds, they are best known as the pioneres of the ‘noise music’ in kpop, pushing a sound during a time when not a lot of people were being receptive to it which is very funny because now it’s the sound that best describes the 4th generation of male kpop groups. Truly ahead of their time and probably the most influential 3rd gen group when it comes to music itself. The ‘agressive’ rap line was also one of the first ones to exist in kpop while now it’s very common as well. Even though the kpop industry itself recognizes their talent and influence, it seems like the kpop fans community doesn’t give them the credit that they truly deserve and that makes me sad because this group is a true gem in kpop that has done a lot for the genre. I hope you find the time to react to their last mini album ‘No Limit’ which also holds Rush Hour, it is an amazing body of work, I feel like you will like it a lot. Their english album ‘The Dreaming’ is also INCREDIBLE ( idk what you meant about the divisive opinions on it, I feel like everybody loved it from what I saw... ). Thank you for your reaction to them and I hope you find the time to react to their new sister group, IVE who is making waves in the kpop community just 4 months after their debut. They only have 4 songs ( perfect for a video reaction ) and they are all amazing, breaking records left and right. 🖤🥺
Ahhh! Monsta X!!! They’re one of those groups that can pull off just about anything. And their English albums are flawless.
And yes, Shownu is in the military. Just like 400 days left until he’s free 😭
26:11 that’s changkyun also known as I.M. And the one who said “eat this” the first time in rush hour
12:43 his name is hyungwon and he's the main visual, lead dancer and sub-vocalist
Literally just the other day I searched up if you’ve reacted to monsta x then you post this reaction 👏👏
Also I know you usually prefer the vocalists (their vocalists are amazing) but this group easily has one of the best rap lines in kpop
it’s almost unanimously agreed upon that Monsta X makes the best english songs out of all kpop groups and as someone who is usually really ambivalent or aversive to english kpop…… i have to agree
They released a full english album and many people love it. Actually most people love it cause you can actually understand the lyrics and all are different. Some people just release rumor about them releasing an english album to have fame (but mx themselves say that the album is for monbebe, to connect more to their fans)
MONSTA X with 6 members (5 active members now)
Shownu - Leader (in military service)
Minhyuk - visual the goovy one
Kihyun - Main vocalist
Hyungwon - visual as well
JooHoney - main rapper / vocalist
I.M - rapper (you called him jim) as vocalist too
Both their English albums, All About Luv & The Dreaming are excellent. Monsta X makes, hands down the best English songs, helped by the fact that they are all pretty good at the language so their pronunciation is on point.
Sir Austin you are probably the most genuine kpop reactor please don't change like those overacting clowns these days lol. Just keep doing you and don't be afraid to say your honest opinions
omg!! ur reacting to seventeen's greatest besties, Monsta X!! They are one of my ult groups along with Seventeen and they are just superrr talented, their songs are so good! thank you so much for checking them out
They're one of my main groups , MonTeen (monsta x & seventeen) they're close friends btw including the fandoms , and one day is one of my fav. songs ever I remember being obsessed with it and listening to it on a loop nonstop for weeks literally😭😭 , and I'm most definitely obsessed with 'Hero' old but gold
I'm so glad you reacted to MX!! They are my ultimate favorite with Seventeen!
I am going to their Seoul Concerts!!
The kings are in the building!!! Thank you so much for your reaction!!! You'll love them.
Greetings from Mexico.
Monsta X started as a very aggressive sound with a lot of hiphop influences, but as the years go on they wanted to try different genres because THEY CAN. They have the talent, the vocal range, the performance, the rappers and the charisma to pull off any genre they want. They are famous in SK for their "manly" image and the sound is often referred to as their own "monsta x sound" because despite their fluxuation in genre, they are STILL recognisable as Them. They are also king of b-sides so if you dont like the aggressive sound from their TT's then they have some absolutely beautiful slow/fun b-sides that would surprise you.
thank you for reacting to them in such an honest way and giving actually valid commentary, i really enjoyed that :)
I'm glad you got back to their videos! ANNND yes everyone that literally listen to their title tracks they think all of their songs are like this hahahahahah but most of their bsides are funky, sweet and even ballads!!! I would recommend you to listen to their eng album, they have two btw, All About Luv and The Dreaming, the songs are AMAZING!!!! and for B-sides I rec "I got Love", "Ride With U", "White Love", "Sorry I'm not Sorry", "Night View", we have cute videos and live videos by them for these. I think you gonna love it
ps: you already know them now since you watched the guide hahahahaha, so its funny to see that you thought their rapper was actually their main vocal :3 their voices are amazing, you can see that on their eng album since there their rappers sing and I think only 1 song has a rap part.
I'm mombebe! I'm so glad you got to take a look at them again!! They are so talented!!! Thanks!!!
My boys. The only boy group I Stan. They are aggressive- Hero, All In, Stuck, Fighter, Dramarama, Jealousy, Shoot Out, Alligator. Fallow and Fantasia are not as aggressive. I still miss Wonho as I will always be OT7, but even with 6 and right now 5 members, for Shownu being in military service, will always be my boys. I know EXO or VIXXcan be kind of aggressive with some tracks, but Monsta X is another level. Though their English tracks are not as aggressive and Find You is not aggressive either. Their newer Korean stuff is still rather aggressive, but not like the early stuff- Rush Hour is probably the one that reminds me most of Classic Monsta X. They now have 2 full English Albums- All About Lov(Who do you Love, Middle of the Night )and The Dreaming. One Day is on The Dreaming. They also did a song with Steve Aoki called Play it cool that has an English version and Korean version.
Shoot out was the first I listened to. Then Alligator, Hero, Fighter, Dramarama, Jealousy, All in, Stuck, Rush. I had watched some stuff that had a story out of order when I was first getting into them. Although it only took to Hero and Fighter, so 4 or 5 songs to be hooked and be a Monbebe. I can’t wait to finally be able to see them in May. Their comeback is scheduled for the 11th- the day before my Dreamcatcher girls Apocalypse: Save Us- Maison Comeback. Shoot out, Hero and Fighter are my top 3 and I am never sure which is actually my favorite as those 3 always seem to be switching places.
For Gambler, The member that walked into the hotel room at the beginning is Joohoney- one of the rap line. Minhyuk starts off then Hyungwon. Kihyun is the third and main vocalist- vocal king who recently made his solo debut with Voyager. Kihyun has done covers of Beliver and Natural.. he kills anything he sings with his voice. The member that got your attention for how fine he looks is Shownu. IM is the other rapper- My Suit is black, my suit is fresh. Hot as F. Both of my rappers can sing and Joohoney has the singing voice is a freaking Angel.One Day is a beautiful song. Hyungwon was the member with the voice you commented on. Rush Hour- Joohoney has the red mullet. Minhyuk is who you noticed. IM’s rap is totally a diss or that’s how I take it with calling competition a dwarf.. Shownu is my bias, but Kihyun and Minhyuk (and Wonho for older stuff) are my bias wreckers. They are aggressive in style, but the members are adorable, especially Joohoney our honey bee. You Problem let’s them show how quirky they are. You Problem and Rush Hour did not have Shownu.
They have been around since May 15, 2015. product of the competition show No Mercy. Wonho was apart of the 93 line, lead vocalist and a visual.
Shownu- leader, main dancer, vocalist, 1992
Minhyuk- sub vocalist, visual, 1993
Kihyun- main vocalist 1993
Hyungwon- sub vocalist, visual, lead dancer, 1994
Joohoney- rapper, vocalist, 1994
IM- makane, rapper, vocalist, 1996
I LOVEE UUU!!!! YOU JUST SAID KIHYUN MAIN VISUAL!!!!!! YASSSSSS SOMEONE AGREES WITH ME IM LITERALLY CRYING!
I have a crazy amount of monsta x songs on my phone as they release so much music and I have never seen you problem before for some reason 🤣
Hero and Jealousy are my favorite Korean tracks from them closely followed by Fantasia. I also recommend their English stuff, specifically Who Do You Love and Play It Cool
So excited to see you react to monsta x
monsta x is a really busy group!! they're constantly releasing mvs and promoting. this is because they have korean, japanese and english songs. when covid wasn't a thing they would go on world tours during the times they weren't promoting an album as well
Thank you for reacting to MX! They have released 2 English albums (both received extremely well) and it's pretty much agreed by everyone that they hands down surpass everyone (in KPop) in regards to English songs 👍🏽
What's most impressive about this group is their eclectic discography. They have pulled off such a variety of music and concepts, the only other group I can think of who's managed to produce such a varied discography is Shinee. So its not surprising that these 2 groups are in my top 3 groups lol.
I really do hope that you'll react to more of their music, perhaps their English stuff as it seems like you're drawn more towards that? Also a guide may be really helpful to react to 🙂👍🏽
Austin you gotta watch more monsta x MVs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Check their older stuff like "beautiful", "shout out", "jealousy" "fighter" and more more there are so many more I live this group so much
Honestly the only Kpop group i’m checking lately is them (their music is so my vibe) to me they are soooo unique and extremely talented and the fact that they do their own title songs 🥵
Their title songs are aggressive but this is the part when people should give Monsta X a chance cuz they are known for having the best b sides in Kpop they are like a 💎 that people need to find. And they’re sooo diverse like hello have you ever heard of a kpop group that can do so well in so many genres i dont think so
Ohhh you should listen to Mercy, is a b-side from their latest Korean album No limit. I think you'll like it, Mercy it's a masterpiece produced by one of the members (Hyungwon) 🕴🏽🕴🏽🕴🏽💜
You won't find anything similar to Monsta X in kpop cuz they're One Of a Kind! 🤭😉
Your reaction to Trespass+Love Killa is what got me into Monsta X and now they are my ult group 😍😍
Oooo can't wait for this!
kihyun would be so happy at you calling him the main visual ehe, they all are visual gods though not wrong :>
their korean title tracks are mostly really powerful and energetic, but their bsides are more on the vocal heavy side and soooo good!!!
they also released two english albums already and you should definitely check out their last one 'the dreaming', because i think you would LOVE it!
btw no one from the rap line was missing in the last video, they’re just also pretty amazing vocalists, especially jooheon the main rapper. the one who is missing is their leader shownu and yes he’s doing his military service right now.
btw mx will have their next comeback in two weeks on april 26th!!!! ❤️
Appreciate you dipping a toe in the MX waters again and glad you found something you vibe with in One Day. I do think you'd also like Voyager. It leans retro in a good and not gimmicky way plus Kihyun's vocals suit it well.
Shownu was the handsome one in the middle in Gambler he is currently enlisted right now.
I cant believe you said I.M is the main vocalist ,😂 omg that makes me feel so proud of him, but you should know he is one of the main rappers , anyways his and jooheons (the other main rapper) vocals are amazing too !!.
yasssssss can't wait!!! They are too sexy... I'm praying for ya sir LOL
Thank you for checking out Monsta X again! Ok, so the thing you need to know about them is - Monsta X are known as intimidating, sexy, beast idols in the industry, but they are honestly so much more than that. They are the absolute kindest, sweetest, funniest, and incredibly hard working men out there. They are well known for their diverse sound and style, whilst always maintaining that Monsta X flavor throughout... if you're a Monbebe, otherwise everyone has a stereotype that their sound is always loud and hype, because a lot of their Korean title tracks are selected for high impact performance purposes, as that is one of Monsta X's many strengths. The X in their name is the mathematical X - an unknown variable, there to tell us from the get go that they will always experiment with sound and style and not limit themselves sonically or linguistically. They are extremely versatile artists when you dive in past the surface, as their music is incredibly eclectic in style, genre blending and language (Korean, Japanese and English, plus a little splash of Spanish here and there) They can do hard Hip Hop, smooth R&B, soft emotional ballads, cute pop, raging EDM, and EVERYTHING in between. They released their second Full English album The Dreaming on the 10th of December, only a few weeks after releasing their Korean mini album No Limit, which Rush Hour is the title track to (most recent Korean comeback), both albums are incredible and showcase their range. Their English songs have a different vibe to their Korean and Japanese work, and that allows them to never remain stagnant and complacent, they are a 7 year old group that continually improve and expands on their skillset, and broaden their discography (keeping it fresh and exciting for Monbebe) This thirst for freshness and range has shaped them into the incredible all rounders in the industry that they are. At the end of the day THEY are the key factor to their music, the thing that links it all is THEM, THEY are the magical ingredient tying it all together. Monsta X have something for everyone, but so many people sleep on them. I hope that changes one day. I really look forward to seeing how your journey with them evolves!
oohh I'm excited ! I saw your post on twitter and I tried to imagine what group it could be and monsta x was in my ideas so yeah, really happy 😊
My bias for this group is Joohoney, his duality is insane! Along with Kihyun, which you pointed out, him and IM both have solo work out. My favorite for my bias is still his 그댄 행복에 살텐데 cover (guarantee you will love it), just barely over Smoky that makes me cry every time. Your assumptions of the members had me rollin' 🤣 and the one missing was Shownu and you were right about him being in the military. Their All About Luv album is still my favorite one and is in full english. Thank you as always for your honest reactions!
Hi Austin, I'm so glad you decided to give Monsta X another chance. There's a lot to be discovered about this group of talented (and sexy) men (not boys). I too was initially a little perplexed about their harder hitting stuff, but I was at the very beginning of my kpop journey then. Now I LOVE everything they do.
From what I know about you from your past reactions, I'm sure you'll enjoy their English releases the best. I have still to listen to the first album, but The Dreaming is amazing (it debuted on Billboard around the 20th place, which isn't bad at all). I listened to it while cooking my Christmas dinner last year and they both were fabulous (album and dinner). Had I listened to Rush Hour, I'd probably have burned it (Eat this! LOL)
Gambler is a sophisticated dance track. I love that its sound slow and hard at the same time and it does give them an opportunity to show vocals. Plus, the outfits are insane and they're clearly gorgeous.
One Day is too short for me too! I love it. They all speak pretty good English and their enunciation on English tracks is impeccable.
Rush Hour shows their stronger side, but vocals are hard hitting there too. The rapline is on a different planet in this group, with Joohoney (author of this and Gambler) and I.M. (Jim 😂, one of my biases)
You Problem is really cute. It gave me Bee Gees and Earth, Wind and Fire vibes.
Hope you check out more from them, including live performances, because I'm sure you'll appreciate their vocal talent.
As you can see Monsta X are not a one trick pony! You're correct about Kihyun/Voyager.
You gonna love monsta x and seventeen friendship!!! And i will love see your reaction
Finally! Monsta x is one of my favourite groups. I recommend you to also watch Ride with you, their b sides are the best!
If you can, also check kihyun album Voyager, there are only three songs but they sound amazing! In my opinion he is one of the best vocalists in kpop
Yay! I am so happy you are checking out Monsta X again! They are one of my top 3 groups alongside BTS and EXO. They have a WIDE range of songs and some of my favourite albums, they are also amazing live performers and the sweetest and goofiest guys! Jooheon the intense rapper is actually more like the You Problem mv, he is super sweet and is known for is Aegyo haha
The One missing from the last two MV's was their Leader Shownu and he indeed started his military service. I really hope you check out more of their stuff! They really have an AMAZING discography!
i feel like you neeeed to react to Hyunwon DJing as H.One, he had been to ultra korea and there are concert vids of their encore of him. The two rappers jooheon / joohoney and changkyun / IM have a rap Sambakja, where i think youll get a kick cause Jooheon playus the drums, he even broke his drumsticks on tour lol
edit: i see you know seventeen so i think you should look at monsta x and seventeen moments it makes my MonCarat heart happy
first vid ive seen of yours though and im livinggggggggggggg for it
please do react to them one by one. they're really really talented istg, plus they have different personalities, they're very loving and entertaining. btw, the one you've been pointing out a lot for being aggressive... that's jooheon, THE real definition of "duality" he can be cute and pretty, and can be aggressive and a rock n' roll vibe dude at the same time. they also have solid songs. from title tracks to b-sides. and btw... KIHYUN IS A POWERFULL VOCAL!! and I'm not being overdramatic. if we're gonna top the best 3rd gen. main BG vocalist. he'll always and forever will be on the top 5. next to SM artists.
Monsta X isn't one of my top 5 groups (I stan like...everyone) but their English songs are THE BEST. Literally no kpop english tracks are even CLOSE to as good as Monsta X has made. They sound so natural and their enunciation is INCREDIBLE considering only one member is fluent in English. SO good. Best in the industry. I'm kind of bitter how good they are and how overlooked they are.
4:39 he’s Shownu the leader and main dancer. You just need to give an opportunity to these bad guys 😈🤠
Kind of like these videos Monsta X really do have extreme duality. They're known for there masculine and somewhat aggressive sound, but are the biggest fluffballs off stage. Like I want to protect them lol.
Their two rappers form one of the most killer rap lines in Kpop, but those two are also the maknaes. They also are a bit unique in Kpop because they have members with bigger physiques (one of whom left bet is successful and loved solo artist). Ironicly those two most intimidating looking are possibly the biggest fluffballs of them all.
Both main rappers and incredible vocalists and most of their vocalists can rap if they need to.
Some classic songs I hope you get to check out are "Jealousy" "Fighter" and "Beautiful"
Ithink you'd really like "Jealousy!"
monsta x korean and japanese tracks are "aggressive" but their english tracks are more on the softer side. you can check out their english albums "All About Luv" and "The Dreaming"
Monsta X has the best English albums for a Kpop group! Their first one was All About Luv, and more recently they released The Dreaming. Caitlin B loved them, and I think you will too! ❤️
the guy in the first video that you said is handsome/pretty is shownu [main dancer,lead vocalist,leader] he wasn't in the other videos because he's in the military 4:31
the guy you liked in rush hour is minhyuk [vocalist,visual] 15:32 he's also at 27:30
the one with the red mullet is joohoney [main rapper,sub-vocalist] 15:28
the guy at 24:52 is indeed the aggressive rapper
the one at 26:56 is I.M [lead rapper,sub-vocalist,maknae] he is the seductive one he's also the one at 27:19
at 27:50 is kihyun [main vocalist]
Normally here for the SVT reactions but Monsta is also one of my fave groups (w/ SHINee who also happens to be kinda friends with svt, more specifically, Key)
I love Monsta X, and the members, I’m very fond and ult those 3 groups
But my comment is to tell that actually Monbebes and Carats are besties!! lmao since both groups debuted in May 2015 (like one or two weeks apart form each other) they promoted their debuts and rookie songs together and became friends, even Scoups said to Monbebes to be friends with Carats since they are friends little did he know we are already besties
And this is additional bc I loveeee them being besties/interactions but the latest one we knew about was Changkyun and Wonwoo going to a musical like 2 months ago supporting Nu’est Baekho and Kihyun calling Woozi on their bday bc the share day, back in November, and SVT being supportive towards Wonho in the AAAwards las December
So yes Carats and Monbebes stay winning 💕
24:49 LMFAO that’s jooheon and um… he is very very cute irl. He is an Aegeyo king so watch out 😟
17:50 25:00 that’s joohoney 🤪 HES a big softie but when he’s on stage he’s a monsta 😂
Oh it would be great if you could react "dreaming" album, this is a piece of art and maybe one of you favorite tastiest album from Monsta, they already have their full second English album, and maybe the main song of this album could be your favorite song from them... And about your questions, kihyun was the person who song Voyager, he is the main vocalist, the other one Joohoney and I.M are the rappers and they also can sing very well, Minhyuk and hyungwon probably are one of the best visuals however I consider all of them are visuals. Finally, you're right Shownu, the leader, is in the military service :3 Wonho keeps being sexy and awesome in all the senses, thanks for your reaction
Austiiiiin, Monsta X and Seventeen are actually best friends! They are my ult groups and their relationship is the cutest, you should check it out in the future!
Monsta X and A.C.E are my favourite groups (Taemin my favourite soloist) so it's great having these reactions. Monsta X are such a talented group and Kihyun is one of the best vocalist (should check out his album - Rain is my favourite and also his covers which show his vocals off). Joohoney and I.M are one of the best rap duos too. Enjoy becoming a Monbebe you won't be disappointed. 😊
YEEEEEEES!!! I'm so happy you're checking more of their work!
They NEED to be in Kingdom! They have the discography and multiple members who can switch from rap to singing. Plus, they would be able to do their own flair to other’s songs.
No. They said no last time they were asked. They never want to experience another survival show.
You Problem shows their real personalities the most of these MVs. They are adorable goofballs irl. Agressive rapper Jooheon is the one with the biggest duality, both in personality and vocals(because the man has the voice of an angel).
The one missing in the last to MVs is our gorgeous leader Shownu, main dancer and lead vocal, who's in the military.
Song suggestions: Follow, Beastmode, Hero, Shine Forever, Newton, Breathe For You, Find You, Sorry I'm Not Sorry
I'm so glad you gave Monsta X another chance. I love these talented men.
Excited for this. Monsta X & Seventeen are besties!
Thank you for reaction ☺️
Monsta X is a great 🥰
