I'd love you to explore f(x) as well, they're very iconic and refreshing, Shinee's sister group. First picks would be LA chA TA, Electric Shock, Rum Pum Pum Pum, Red Light and 4 Walls. And I also strongly vote for Brown Eyed Girls ❤︎Abracadabra, Sixth Sense, Cleansing Cream, Kill Bill and Brave New World are must-listen
@ActuallyAnanya Oh, yeah I mean, how could I not? Cleansing Cream is such a beautiful song! i think it's underrated because it’s not a dance track and the MV is plot-based without the members or choreography in it... Also BEG were my first K-pop group EVER, and f(x) was the second group I got to know - and my favorite girl group for a very long time! I wish they were still active
@@Asya062 yeah it's really sad that newer kpop fans just aren't aware of them much because of their inactivity :( I was lucky enough to see f(x) briefly perform at a Korean culture festival in London in 2015, oh what I'd do for them to reunite and have a tour
I always thought Crazy and Hate, especially Hate, were ahead of its time, because it's kind of the same song formula Blackpink blew up with later (Boombayah etc.) and then it became a whole thing
@Guanggui I didn't just mean the beat drop though. Come Back Home is on another level, it's like three genres in one and it all blends perfectly. I could say the same about I Got A Boy. They're just next level. The 4Minute/Blackpink formula is much simpler than that. But yeah, I get what you mean, 2NE1 and Blackpink are both produced by Teddy after all, so maybe he's the one that deserves credit for that trend
remember Crazy came out late 2015 and Hate came out in 2016 and Blackpink debuted in Aug 2016. so really it was back to back. i remember being blown away with 4minute comeback for Crazy and Hate. they had always been those girlies to me but Hyuna was pushed hard by Cube. not to hate on Hyuna bc she was a force to be reckon with. but i felt like Cube had stepped it with 4minute. only for them to dump 4minute and just resign Hyuna. i agree that Blackpink came in and took the cute bad girl spot. real quick too. Cube did it to their selves.
He gagged with Hate. It's not my favorite 4minute song, but when it came out... I was replaying it all the time. And I actually used to go to college wearing kinda the same outfit, the red sweater, jeans and the construction shoes... oh, I was FEELING myself. Obviously no one in college knew that I was copying them lol
I also hope you explore Hyuna’s solo career, especially during the 10 years she spent with Cube Entertainment. Hyuna is one of the biggest and most influential solo artists of the second generation, known for being one of the most groundbreaking performers of her time. She faced a lot of malicious and sexist criticism for adopting a sexy and empowering concept but always stood her ground. Notably, she was one of the first idols to publicly confirm a relationship with another idol, which led to her being “kicked out” of Cube Entertainment. Additionally, Hyuna appeared in PSY’s “Gangnam Style” music video, which became a global hit. In 2011, she delivered one of the most memorable performances at the Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) to promote the announcement of the sub-unit Trouble Maker (another hit duo of the 2nd generation). During the performance, she shared a provocative kiss with member Hyunseung on stage in front of everyone.  Unfortunately, recently, she has shown some controversial behavior regarding her current boyfriend (not E’Dawn, but another man who was a member of the boy group Beast, also from Cube). Despite what many fake news articles online suggest, he was not directly involved in the Burning Sun scandal. But he received and commented on a illegally shared consensual video send by one of the involved man of burning sun and chose not to report it. This is still disappointing for us Hyuna fans. That said, her artistic career is full of iconic songs, especially her solo debut Change, which was rated +19 in Korea at the time and banned from several shows due to its suggestive choreography. Some recommendations: Change, Bubble Pop! (the first K-pop solo artist MV to reach 100 million views on TH-cam), Red, and Ice Cream. to more 4minute MVs Some suggestions: I My Me Mine, Ready Go (Japanese song), Love Tension (Japanese song), and Heart to Heart.
Knowing about it and not reporting it IS being directly involved, actually. It's sick. He is awful and she is awful for being involved with him after all that.
@ Yes, it’s awful-there’s no doubt about that-especially considering Hyuna’s attitude of ignoring the fans’ warnings. What I mean by “not directly involved” is the fact that he wasn’t convicted (once again, it’s still a HORRIBLE thing to do). However, many articles at the time falsely claimed that he was, and that Hyuna was getting involved with someone who had faced criminal charges for it. I have my opinions about how the Korean legal system handled these cases and everyone involved, but what I want to point out here is that there was a lot of misinformation surrounding this situation. If we’re going to have a negative opinion about Hyuna’s behavior in this situation (as I do), it should be based on what actually happened.
Love it or hate it, ppl always react strongly to Hate. lol. 4minute were my faves bc while they could do chic, cute, sexy, fierce, etc, they always had like a tough edge to them. a vibe they had regardless of concept. 4minute came before the term "girl crush" which is what many would describe them as today, but back then they were described as "korea's female warriors" in media. they were also described as being chameleons, as they could adapt to any concept and make it believable and their own. It's a pipe dream, but i'd really love for them to do a killing voice. i'll tune in even if it's a decade from now, lol.
By the way, 4minute has a sub-unit called 2YOON, featuring members Gayoon (the main vocalist) and Jiyoon (the short-haired girl and the one with glasses in “Hot Issue”). They explored a musical genre unlike anything ever done in K-pop before (I won’t spoil what genre it is), and it’s incredibly fun!
@@kevandmal Unfortunately, they only released one mini-album, called Harvest Moon. I highly recommend the single “24/7”, but the entire mini-album is AMAZING! Highlight B-sides: “Why Not” and “Nightmare”. Fun fact: one of the members of this sub-unit, Jenyer (formerly Jiyoon, as she now uses this stage name), has an independent solo career. In 2021, nearly 10 years after the sub-unit’s debut, she invited Gayoon (the other sub-unit member-they are VERY close friends) to collaborate on the song “SOOP” as a gift for the fans. 💚
You NEED to check hyuna's solos, I know her reputation is bad now, but her songs still a BOP. Her debut is called CHANGE, and for a debut is just amazing.
Yesssss 🙌🏽👏🏽🙌🏽👏🏽 loved it! If you choose to do a 3rd 4Minute video, in my opinion the next 4 videos to check out should be: Muzik, I My Me Mine, Is It Poppin?, and Love Tension !
I remember when HATE came out, some people were not convinced by the drastic change in the chorus, since it started with a slow melodic piano to reach an explosive chorus. And now look at the BP formula, an example would be HYLT. How hypocritical. That's why I will always say that 2NE1 and 4MINUTE are one of the best groups of that generation. (I really like all the 2nd generation ones)
I love 4Minute! They where one of the first Kpop-groups that I fell in love with. Please check out: Cold Rain Musik Is it Popping? Heart to Heart For Hyuna: Change (Debut) Bubble Pop Red Roll Deep Lip & Hip
i second all the suggestions for groups like CLC, f(x) and Brown Eyed Girls but would also like to suggest: TINY G ('Tiny G', 'Minimanimo', 'Miss You' and 'Ice Baby') FIESTAR ('We Dont Stop', 'I Dont Know', 'One More' and 'Youre Pitiful') LADIES CODE ('Kiss Kiss', '예뻐 예뻐', '나쁜여자' and 'So Wonderful')
as a silent watcher and listener, It is my first time commenting on your post PLEASE PLEASE REACT TO CLC. The K-pop girl group CLC debuted in March 2015 under Cube Entertainment. The group's genres included dance-pop, trap, synth-pop, and R&B. I know you will love them, Thank youuuu, Love lots!
Since someone above suggested reacting to girl group "SECRET" I wanted to recommend what i think will be a great 4 video introduction to their music. First song "shy boy" second song "Madonna" third song "I'm in love" and lastly "poison"
Can you believe that Mirror Mirror choreo was considered very provocative back then 😂 i believe they had to change some parts of it for live performances.
Nice to see you're enjoying your 4minute journey. Makes me happy! Hopefully, you can check out some of these for part three! 1. Muzik 2. I My Me Mine 3. WHY 4. Heart to Heart 5. Ready Go 6. Love Tension 7. Is it poppin'? 8. Thank You :) 9. Cold rain 10. Canvas
Please do CLC next, for me, they continued 4 minute's legacy, but they were not given the chance to blow up because the poor management and inconsistency in sound that Cube gave them at the start of their career
What's wild and sad about Hate is that it's their final song. They disbanded after it's release. Even before it released, they publicly said that whether they would renew their contracts as 4Minute would depend on the track's performance. Weird since their previous comeback, Crazy, did fantastic (#2 in Korea and #2 in US World) but they were thinking of disbanding anyway. Anyway, Hate ended up one of their less popular releases in Korea (#13) but fantastic internationally (#2 in US World). Then they disbanded. I wonder what the _real_ reason is then. Struggling to work as a group, after all these years? Everyone wanted to focus on solo careers? Frustrations that Hyuna become a superstar while the rest didn't? All the above? Who knows. RIP 4Minute, you are missed and your influence on music and MVs is still felt to this day. o7
from what the members said in interviews (mainly jiyoon and jihyun), they did not know they were disbanding. they said that cube planted info that they were disbanding to the press, gave a fake statement of "we're looking into this", to make it look like the members besides hyuna decided not to renew, when really they had canceled the members' contracts as a group, and was pretending they didn't know about it. they found out through the press like everyone else. very believable with how cube handled the hyuna/dawn situation years later. They then offered individual contracts to some of the members, but not all. Cube had recently gotten a new CEO, as well as formed a partnership with a new company IHQ, so there was some sort of internal fighting going on that we don't really know the details of and 4minute got caught in the crossfire. Jihyun heavily implied that the other members wanted to leave the company and stay as a group under either their own company, or find new management, but since Hyuna was going to stay they didn't go through with that. Info to take with a grain of salt, but their fansites at the time were saying that hyuna was staying bc she was in a relationship with someone at cube and didn't want to leave bc of them, so she stayed, and the other members were upset bc it was a relatively new relationship that they felt they were being ditched for. This was said way before her and dawn had went public, and ppl didn't really believe it at the time. However looking back, the timeline checks out. Jihyun later said that as a group that they prbly would have only lasted a few more years anyway, so she's let go of that hurt as of now, although it took her a while.
not an understatement to say i've been waiting ALL WEEK to see your reaction to the beat drop in Hate! 🤣 people were so conflicted in 2016 lol. it kind of had the same effect as SNSD's I Got a Boy that way. but i'm glad you enjoyed it! it's definitely worthy of being the last ever 4min song (tragically). personally i like to think they were singing to Cube (:
I'm not a big fan of 4minute, but HATE had been one of my fave k-pop songs for a while. And I'm Here patiently enjoying your video reactions to 2PM, GOT7, KARA, and some others, in the meanwhile of patiently waiting for your video reactions to, hopefully, MBLAQ and CLC 🙏
You should check out their dance practice as well! The music videos don't showcase enough how good their choreo is. Hard agree on diving into HyunA's solos!!
Please May I recommend more from them: -Is it poppin? - I my me mine -femme fatale -Ready to Also pleaseeeee can you react to Hyuna solos and the group SECRET !!
YES PLEASE!! My favorite gg until they... stopped being active as group? I can't even say they disbanded, because it was never an official statement... But they have such a great discography, even ahead of their time
I don’t usually try to request reactions, but would you consider doing a deep dive into Chanmina, she is a popular soloist who is Japanese and Korean, her songs range from all styles, I’d recommend voice memo no.5, b list, and ng, I promise you’ll enjoy it
DO NOT LET ANYONE DISSAUDE YOU FROM CHECKING OUT HYUNA'S SOLO CAREER please. She has always been amazing and the lies being told about her new husband are just that lies. People refuse to do basic research on that situation and it's part of why people have written her off. It is unfair.
Please react to Fx songs💜... Lachata Chu NuABO Pinnochio/Danger Hot summer Electric Shock Rum Pum Pum Pum Red Light 4 Walls... I just listed the MVs in order.. please do react to them 🥺 ....Their b-sides are also amazing
You need to check I my me mine and check their japanese songs I think out of kpop groups 4minute had one of the best japanese discography like Why, ready go, first, love tension.
I hope to see you react to 'SECRET'! One of the best girl groups to ever happen!
yeah
am not the only one who need it
SECRET TIMEEEEEE!!!!!
Magic
Madonna
Love Is Move
Poison
I'm In Love
Talk That
Talk that and Poison could you imagine his reaction lol
I'm In Love!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I remember when Hate came out everyone went crazy because Skrillex was one of the composers/writers
I'd love you to explore f(x) as well, they're very iconic and refreshing, Shinee's sister group. First picks would be LA chA TA, Electric Shock, Rum Pum Pum Pum, Red Light and 4 Walls. And I also strongly vote for Brown Eyed Girls ❤︎Abracadabra, Sixth Sense, Cleansing Cream, Kill Bill and Brave New World are must-listen
Your taste is immaculate
@@ActuallyAnanya omg thank you 😭💗
@@Asya062 I mean you didn't just mention my 2 favourite girl groups, you even mentioned Cleansing Cream which is so underrated as a BEG title track!

I always thought Crazy and Hate, especially Hate, were ahead of its time, because it's kind of the same song formula Blackpink blew up with later (Boombayah etc.) and then it became a whole thing
Not really, that kind of electronic songs started with 2ne1 Come back home

Jiyoon owned Hate. I lost my shit when I saw her in the leather outfit and with the curly hair.
You should watch "I My Me Mine".
yes..and Heart to Heart..love that song❤

Hyuna's solo songs are iconic, my recommendation for the first time would be Bubble Pop, Roll Deep, Lip & Hip, Red and BABE
You NEED to check hyuna's solos, I know her reputation is bad now, but her songs still a BOP. Her debut is called CHANGE, and for a debut is just amazing.
And isn't she like 19 as well at that point? Her charisma is off the charts
@@josephosullivan9891 she was freshly 18
Fun fact: Hate was composed and arranged by Skrillex.
i really love "Whatcha Doin' Today" (I love songs that Brave Brothers makes for 4minute and other artist🤣)
i love how fresh the mv for hate still feels
"HATE" & "CRAZY" THEY BEST SONG
I was looking forward to your reaction to the drop in Hate and you did not disappoint.
I me my mine is such an underrated 4minute track
Yesssss 🙌🏽👏🏽🙌🏽👏🏽 loved it! If you choose to do a 3rd 4Minute video, in my opinion the next 4 videos to check out should be: Muzik, I My Me Mine, Is It Poppin?, and Love Tension !
Oooooo Love Tension is sooooo good!!
YESS PLSSS I love this line up!!
19:10 that is Jiyoon, she has some solo songs under the name JENYER
Jiyoon also is the vocalist for the group PRSNT. Debuted in 2019 and have a dozen or more singles released. Most have performance videos here on YT
@@Syboutszen Oh thanks, I totally missed that. Just listened to their catalog. Totally my style - love it.❤
I remember when HATE came out, some people were not convinced by the drastic change in the chorus, since it started with a slow melodic piano to reach an explosive chorus.
And now look at the BP formula, an example would be HYLT. How hypocritical.
That's why I will always say that 2NE1 and 4MINUTE are one of the best groups of that generation. (I really like all the 2nd generation ones)
Waiting for the reaction of hyuna's solo🎉
Yes HYUNA solos!!!
REAL BAD !!! 🤭😆
Please next do secret or brown eyed girls

Hate is my favorite 4Minute song, the vocals, the soft rap and then the Skrillex Drop.... he produced the song

FIESTAR ('We Dont Stop', 'I Dont Know', 'One More' and 'Youre Pitiful')
LADIES CODE ('Kiss Kiss', '예뻐 예뻐', '나쁜여자' and 'So Wonderful')
TINY G!!!!!!
My personal favs from 4 minute, Is it poppin & Canvas
'Hate' was produced by Skrillex.
as a silent watcher and listener, It is my first time commenting on your post
PLEASE PLEASE REACT TO CLC.
The K-pop girl group CLC debuted in March 2015 under Cube Entertainment. The group's genres included dance-pop, trap, synth-pop, and R&B. I know you will love them, Thank youuuu, Love lots!
i'm loving these older gg reactions..
next secret, brown eyed girls, wonder girls, f(x), after school..
Since someone above suggested reacting to girl group "SECRET" I wanted to recommend what i think will be a great 4 video introduction to their music. First song "shy boy" second song "Madonna" third song "I'm in love" and lastly "poison"
Can you believe that Mirror Mirror choreo was considered very provocative back then 😂 i believe they had to change some parts of it for live performances.
I love their iconic upbeat songs BUT my favorite song will always be "Cold Rain" 🤌
Nice to see you're enjoying your 4minute journey. Makes me happy!
Hopefully, you can check out some of these for part three!

You should check HyunA solo releases they are bop too ( Change, Babe, Red, Lip & hip)
4Minute was great, I love Jiyoon's style and vibe 😎
Next ~ Heart to heart
4MINUTE WAS AND WILL BE MY VERY FIRST GROUP I FELL IN LOVE WITH, MISS EM SO MUCH..... PLS REACTO TO CANVAS, LOVE TENSION, I MY ME MINE, WHATEVER
Plz f(x) 😭 ❤❤❤❤❤💕
Up
YES PLEASE!! My favorite gg until they... stopped being active as group? I can't even say they disbanded, because it was never an official statement... But they have such a great discography, even ahead of their time
My bias Jiyoon getting the recognition
The next group should be SECRET and Wonder Girls
Time to react for hyuna
it's still crazy to me that skrillex has a hand producing 'hate'
Please, react to ‘STELLAR’. They are the queens of sexy concept.

Supernova 👈 Men

I don’t usually try to request reactions, but would you consider doing a deep dive into Chanmina, she is a popular soloist who is Japanese and Korean, her songs range from all styles,
I’d recommend voice memo no.5, b list, and ng, I promise you’ll enjoy it
DO NOT LET ANYONE DISSAUDE YOU FROM CHECKING OUT HYUNA'S SOLO CAREER please. She has always been amazing and the lies being told about her new husband are just that lies. People refuse to do basic research on that situation and it's part of why people have written her off. It is unfair.
Personally, I enjoy Hyuna's solos so I can't wait for you to check it out
Now react to hyuna's solos
Brave Sound is THEE producer for the 2nd gen cos why all their songs slaps for all the groupsssss

Really enjoyed this. I hope you'll react to CLC too! They're from the same label. ❤

Fun fact about Hate is that it was produced by Skrillex!
Lastly I really hope Dal Shabet, Rainbow, and Fiestar are on your list to check out too

Hmmm, i am not sure you Can handle Hyuna’s Solo songs/mv’s 🤣😉
If you want to hear something slower from them I'd suggest Cold Rain. It has an MV.
