@@dawnsmith4473 SAAAAME! My bias is Changbin and my bias wrecker is Minho, but for this comeback Hyunjin and Jisung mostly Hyunjin bias wrecked me soo bad! I'm still mad at Hyunjin like this is not acceptable behavior! It's not a safe show for any of us, he has no consideration at all! xD we've been so wronged.
3racha made this with producers in LA, so it's definitely not much of a Korean sound. Also this is just a digital single. Clé: Levanter will be coming out in November
so i actually only found this out after it came out but Double Knot is actually a pre-release single for their full comeback which will be in November. that kinda explains why the song and video is not typical for a title track. I hope you feel better!
We don't know yet if it's another single, it's almost sure that they'll do the same as with Miroh, they uploaded the MV at 00:00 (korea time) and dropped the album at 18:00
PD'S "OH MY" PD'S SUCH A DEEP VOICE FELIX STAN IM- i love pd's reactions to stray kids so much, secretly i feel like pd has a soft spot for them, just like i do 😂💕💕👏
You're right, Hyunjin got more screen time then usual. I feel like this year has been the year of the dance line and especially Hyunjin with Miroh then Side Effects and now Double Knot. I feel like we have also gotten less vocal line, but I have a feeling that the next title track will be vocally driven.
This song is just a more upscale bside mv only difference is that they're performing it on music shows as a single. Most likely it will be a bside on Cle 3 Levanter in late November. The marketing for this reminds me of what Seventeen did with Hit. It's just a song that they likely felt strong enough about to promote as a single and maybe it was as equally considered for the title track so they released a MV.
"this is less about marketing ... this feels it's less about trying to market to korea and more so preparing their fans for something." wow your opinions are always sooooo on point!!
Double knot is actually a b-side they will release their title track “Astronaut” on November 9th (Edit) lol so apparently the title track is yet to be announced
I love the Kulture Study because I get to see someone else enjoy kpop songs and their music videos in a fangirlish way as well as bringing in analysis about the techniques of directing and story of the videos, the way the songs can be marketed, and about the talent these idols have. Kulture Study really is my form of therapy. Can’t wait for more short films and music video reactions and discussions! Thanks for doing what you do!
violet jade uh... where did you get that information? as far as i know PD goes by they/them pronouns but has never outright stated their gender, especially not any mention of a transition
@@apollo9057 it's in their channel's about section! they do refer to themself with they/them pronouns as you said and also state outright that they are transgender ftm!
I absolutely agree that this song is Hyunjin's. Felix's part is absolutely a killer, and of course Changbin and Han going off. I wish Chan and I.N had perhaps more parts, but I can see that in a hip hop style it would be more enlightening for the rap line. I think that the editing between the members switching could have been smoother, but the jumpy switches were kind of endearing. I enjoy the video and song a lot, the dance absolutely kills it. I'm glad they put in the rap line to the front in this one, especially for a title song. Great reaction as always :) Hope you feel better soon Edit: found out it's not a title track, makes sense, still love it.
I only know a few of them by name, but I don't know which one Hyunjin is. Could you please tell me a minute mark when he's on screen? I'd appreciate it. Thank you so much. In advance, lol.
@@rentheviking1729 thank you so much! Please don't apologize. I know that you have a life outside of TH-cam, lol. Thank you for the offer to break all the members down for me. I'm good now. I've been researching them since writing my comment. Soon I'll know them all by name. Thanks again!
In the second Cle album Yellow Wood, there is a song called Road Not Taken which is a masterpiece but it's kind of an intro and we Stay felt sad how short it is... this time they made Double Knot and it's FULL LENGTH thankfully..... But it's a pre-release so they will come Strongeerrrrrr YAASSSSSS okay im calm :| They just trying to do every genre and sound they can do because they actually can do every genre and sound like it's their own... Anyways, look for the official comeback song PD, thanks again for taking your time and watch this even though your condition is not in a good place, I appreciate it 🙏🏻
I think this was perfect time to give rap line even bigger spotlight. "Real" comeback is next month so i think this type of song was good at this point.
When they posted one of the promotion photos (the one with the credits and some lyrics), Double Knot was numbered as "02. Double Knot" so it's obviously a bside track or a subtitle, so the big shit comes in November
I didn't know much of Stray Kids' music before but this song got me hooked. I love how it catches you by the throat and never lets go. I love the ending as well: you'd expect a release but it keeps going with some more great visuals and choreography. I keep listening to it almost every day.
My guess is that they’re saving a bigger budget for the November comeback’s music video since it’s a full length album and possibly their final comeback for 2019 (It’s insane that they have 5 releases this year if we include the possibility of astronaut being a song) since they’ll likely be performing that for year end award shows.
They actually already had a whole world tour (the Unveil tour) and the USA shows back in May were just part of that! They also went to Australia, Southeast Asia, Europe
lol I love how PD thought this was a title track but in his explanation he was soo on point :D yes, this is not the end it's preparing us for their comeback, this is digital single :) PD always elaborates so good and really understands them :)
This is a side track pd .The title track will be realease on 25th november along with the whole album and we still got unknown release on 9th november tho idk what it is
I really like this song, though it had to grow on me a bit. Whereas I was lost for Side Effects after like .1 seconds haha Still probably my favorite title track tbh. As unpopular of an opinion as that is. I listen to Side Effects literally like 3 times a day haha (it is a great plank song XD)
I didn't really like this one at first, but it did started growing on me, plus I love love me some Hyunjin & felix rap. Hyunjin really grew on me since their debut & you can really see how much he improves each comeback :)
The "OH MY" at Felix's part. I always know that Felix is coming when I listen to a new Stray Kids song and I'm always lowkey on edge cause I never know how deep of a register he'll be in.
Lee Know (Minho) really served looks in this. ❤ Seungmin showed me another side and I never knew that I needed to see Woojin in a waist belt 😭💗 Hyunjin really used his chic power!! I.N in pink hair??? 💗 Changbin & Jisung were killing it. And Bang Chan came with his visuals 💕 Felix took me out with his part 😭😭💕💕 // I wish the fx parts were more clean because it's so cool how they switched between Jisung/Han, BC, WJ, & SM. I loved that part.
My first exposure to Double Knot was the English version and as a U.S. Stay I would say it's in my Top 5. Of course since I don't speak Korean I can't know how closely the lyrics are mirrored as far as the vibe and intent, but I find this song to be one that really gets me pumped up and feeling empowered. It's a really strong song and I just love it. I love the choreo of tying the shoes and pulling them tight! I have watched several of your videos jumping around all over the place (as I appreciate SF9 and others as well) and I really enjoy your analysis and perspective! I feel that it has helped me to understand the groups better.
AT first I wasn't that excited about this song when I thought it was a title track and yes I thought too that this isn't like their style that would do. But later I discovered that this is just like a connection between albums. And yes, Hyunjin really killed it this song.
I absolutely NEED to see YOUR reaction to so so by winner. I feel your take would be amazing. And your reaction to this art of a video is something that need in my life.
This is the first of two comeback they will have in a month period. They will be releasing "Astronaut" in a month and then the actual Cle album with that. I had thought the same thing about the video production on this music video made it seem like it wasn't a title track. Maybe "Astronaut" is the real title track. However, they are actively promoting "Double Knot" on music shows, but they used to always promote two tracks per album prior to with their "I am" albums, so that wouldn't be out of the ordinary.
So my biggest thing about this song and video is the fact I think a large amount of us were expecting an ot9 version of 3racha’s double knot like how the mixtapes were originally 3racha songs turned into ot9 songs so when I heard they were doing double knot I got super excited but when double knot was released it was completely different from the 3racha version so for me I was let down from my expectations but when I look at it objectively and as if I never knew of the 3racha version this song is so good and I definitely love it I think for me while I love the song and video I get a lot of mixed feelings because I so badly wanted an ot9 version of the 3racha one and the structure, lyrics, beats, and pretty much the entire song is just a completely different song
PD-dude, Double Knot is a promotional b-side. Their comeback will be on November 25. I feel like Double Knot & Astronaut will help fans & people hype up for their full album comeback. I hope Levanter will top MIROH in terms of Album Sales.
*note: I’m well aware now that this isn’t a title track.
Now I know too lmao
Form of Therapy well i did not actually know that
I have question, for you Who do you think in the world of kpop, who is the group that dances best?
This isn't a title track *sorry I had to PD*
I wanted to say something but you know already... also love this reaction PD 😋
PD reacting to Hyunjin is such a mood, literally everyone got attacked by him here
So true. First time I saw 2:19 - 2:32 (time in this video) my first thought was "Boy.....stay in your damn lane" lol
@@dawnsmith4473 SAAAAME! My bias is Changbin and my bias wrecker is Minho, but for this comeback Hyunjin and Jisung mostly Hyunjin bias wrecked me soo bad!

what's the best place for American fans to get info? I had no idea they're planning a world tour and there's another track coming out o__o
Jessica Amzoll i always keep up with their official twitter personally!!
@@CardinalDrake there are also places like reddit r/kpop which has info on all kpop
@@CardinalDrake i get all of my info from their official twitter account. They post there regularly
Jessica Amzoll they announce new stuff on their Twitter and Facebook accounts!
hyunjin slayed
that’s all. that’s the tea
kang seulgi is seulgi bear what else would he do
GASP!!! 😱You can't say that!!! You have to praise all the members equally each time! Those are the rules of Kpop TH-cam!
“This is Hyunjin’s song” I couldn’t agree more!!
"I feel like Hyunjin really killed it this time"
HELL YEAH I MEAN I'M CHANGBIN BIASED BUT HOLY FUXK THE INHUMAN SOUND I MADE AT HYUNJIN'S PARTS XD
same
Yeah i agree. Chans my bias but its really hard for me these days to stay on that lane HYUNJINS power 🔥
THIS IS SO ME !!!
only intellectuals appreciate stray kids' music
kthsana nice
Exactly
Nice! I love your content so much!
Omg I love your channel, also I agree with you
Yes
so i actually only found this out after it came out but Double Knot is actually a pre-release single for their full comeback which will be in November. that kinda explains why the song and video is not typical for a title track. I hope you feel better!
Also, they will release one more digital single before realising album callled "Astronaut"
We don't know yet if it's another single, it's almost sure that they'll do the same as with Miroh, they uploaded the MV at 00:00 (korea time) and dropped the album at 18:00
BUT there are the "Take Off" words everywhere so maybe that's the Title track and not Astronaut, who know
@@enzitoparacatito It is Astronaut look at the video on jyp channel they've put out before this song
Enzito Paracatito but whatever astronaut is, it comes out like 2 weeks before the album, so it’s unlikely that it’s gonna be the actual title track
PD'S "OH MY"

4:15 "I feel like I'm suffocating to this song"
Would you say it's a side effect?
And your head hurts?
And can't keep up with the pace?
And the sound of Double Knot just keep playing over and over again inside your head???
Actually K-pop was a mistake, my b
As if you’re on a hellevator?
It is a b side. They are releasing it similarly to how svt released Hit and then Fear
I love that he described the song as a b-side without knowing it's actually a b-side. :)
"this is less about marketing ... this feels it's less about trying to market to korea and more so preparing their fans for something."
wow your opinions are always sooooo on point!!
Double knot is actually a b-side they will release their title track “Astronaut” on November 9th
(Edit) lol so apparently the title track is yet to be announced
Astronaut is still an unknown release the title track will be release on 25th november
but the comeback is on the 25th so is astronaut really the title track? it feels weird that that they release it so far apart
Huỳnh Thái Nguyên yeah maybe Astronaut is not gonna be the title track but for sure Double Knot is not the title track
@@sensanda yeah thats what i thought
I think it's take off? I just saw the word Take Off many times in the music video

PD: So I want to run this a second time to talk about the song structure
* ends up fanboying about Hyunjin the entire second part *
I can relate XD
The reactions to Felix's parts are a whole mood
I totally agree with the video being editing-heavy. It's like a really intense version of Voices.
I didn't know much of Stray Kids' music before but this song got me hooked. I love how it catches you by the throat and never lets go. I love the ending as well: you'd expect a release but it keeps going with some more great visuals and choreography. I keep listening to it almost every day.
« this HyunJin's song » I'm so agree with this !
so many quality comebacks are happening at once and i'm living
My guess is that they’re saving a bigger budget for the November comeback’s music video since it’s a full length album and possibly their final comeback for 2019 (It’s insane that they have 5 releases this year if we include the possibility of astronaut being a song) since they’ll likely be performing that for year end award shows.
I just realized stray kids keep highlighting different members in every comeback. Their teamwork is really amazing 🥺
"A warehouse? Interesting!!"
*tries to figure out if you're being sarcastic or not
He has mentioned lots of times he dont like these unless its great. So no clearification haha!
*Me, a hyunjin ult since predebut* : finally intellectuals are stanning my man 😤
Yes 🙌🏻 🙌🏻 🙌🏻 ♥️
They actually already had a whole world tour (the Unveil tour) and the USA shows back in May were just part of that! They also went to Australia, Southeast Asia, Europe
My bias Hyunjin getting the recognition he deserves
😂😭 The way you react to Hyunjin is literally every STAY at this point. Lmaooo and the way your *“OH MY”* intensified at Felix’s part ㅋㅋㅋ WHAT A MOOD
The production and beat drop though. 😮😍

What I like about reactions like this one is that after watching it I go to the comments sessions and I learn so much from the fans! Thank you guys!!!

I was waiting for you to react to double knot since such long time. Take care of your health pd!! ♡
I really like this song, though it had to grow on me a bit. Whereas I was lost for Side Effects after like .1 seconds haha Still probably my favorite title track tbh. As unpopular of an opinion as that is. I listen to Side Effects literally like 3 times a day haha (it is a great plank song XD)
I didn't really like this one at first, but it did started growing on me, plus I love love me some Hyunjin & felix rap. Hyunjin really grew on me since their debut & you can really see how much he improves each comeback :)

big mood bruh!
Thank u for the reaction. I'm waiting for you reaction & comment of Stray Kids forward.👍
The "OH MY" at Felix's part. I always know that Felix is coming when I listen to a new Stray Kids song and I'm always lowkey on edge cause I never know how deep of a register he'll be in.

also, one of my top favorite practice videos to watch
Double Knot is not a title track but is my favorite title track from Stray Kids (? Hahaha is just so gooood, I'm in love with the song.
If you see the dance practice, that is an absolute masterpiece! It's gotta win a choreo award!

They’re probably doing what svt has done rn with their comebacks, they for sure will do a comeback when they drop the album on November
I was waiting for this review!!! I’m so happy it’s finally here 😊
Been waiting for this reaction. Really loved your reaction to Felix's lines :D It's my favorite part of the song.
The song did not sound good at my first listen, but after streaming it for a whole day, it grew on me. :))

Double Knot and Easy are my 2 favourites of them 🤩🤩
This is the first of two comeback they will have in a month period. They will be releasing "Astronaut" in a month and then the actual Cle album with that.

You need to watch their dance practice. Double Knock choreography is crazy 🔥🔥🔥best dance performance of 2019.
I srsly love hyunjin’s rapping style/sound and his dancing style, not my bias but gotta acknowledge that talent he has
