@@effie1568 To let you know more about the situation. Hyunjin and his family gotten Kkomi without knowing he was already sick. The time Hyunjin spent with Kkomi was actually really short, but he always visit kkomi in the pet hospital daily. But unfortunaly the puppy still succumb to his illness. Hyunjin was an only child, so imagine getting a playmate, a friend, and a new family member just to lose them sooo early... He told STAYS that sometimes when he looks at Kkami(current dog)'s picture he taken, he would feel upset and cry realizing he never really had much pictures of Kkomi. The reason why he named his current dog Kkami because he had wanted Kkomi be Kkami's big brother. There was a vlive of him telling his story.

SKZ2021 is a special digital release with re-recordings of their older songs but without the former member, they remade their 9 member songs as 8, these songs were the ones that weren't re-recorded for SKZ2020 which is the same concept but included their title tracks and stuff, SKZ2021 were the songs left out from that project to remake their whole discography as 8
The costumes for the Skzoo Thunderous performance are kind of their representative animals (used on social media, for merch ect.): Bang Chan: Wolfchan, wolf LeeKnow: leebit, rabbit Changbin: Dwaekki, pig-rabbit Hyunjin: jiniret, ferret Han: HanQuokka, quokka Felix: BbokAri, chick Seungmin: PuppyM, puppy I.N.: FoxI.Ny, desert fox
Alternative title: Caitlin losing her mind over Stray Kids for 41 minutes 😂😂😂 Also, as soon as you said you'd never seen a SKZ dance practice before reacting to the one for Domino, I already knew you were done for, RIP💀 The choreo for Domino is one of my faves and SKZ have some great choreo imo.
SKZOO is a project by Stray Kids, where each member has a cartoon avatar representing them. Lee Know as a rabbit - "Leebit" Changbin as a dwaekki (pig/rabbit hybrid) - "Dwaekki" Hyunjin as a ferret - "Jiniret" Han as a quokka - "Han Quokka" Felix as a chick - "BbokAri" Seungmin as a puppy - "PuppyM" I.N. as a desert fox - "FoxI.Ny" Bang Chan as wolf - "Wolfchan"
The way you kept saying in the beginning how Hyunjin's singing makes you want to cry and seeing #LoveStay at the end of your list, I just know your fate is sealed. 😂 You went from laughing so hard to sobbing at the end. Really enjoyed your reaction. Thank you and happy new year!
The live performance of Secret Secret was literally life changing lol. I'd highly suggest watching it in your freetime! I'd also like to suggest Streetlight (Changbin's solo tack) and Little Star (Hyunjin's solo track). OH and the Inkigayo performance of Domino. You should have seen their first performance in those SKZOO outfits for God's Menu. It was an ABSOLUTE train wreck. And Hyunjin did actually learn to play the piano during hiatus just for LoveStay. I sob every time i watch it.
skz 2021 is an album full of remade songs without their ex member. they released one in 2020 as well and both of them together cover almost all of their discography pre-levanter :))
The hashtag "lovestay" is created by hyunjin for normal insta post at first but then skz use it alot. Hyunjin said he was learning piano and he created the song in 4 months carefully while reading STAYs letter 😭😭.
Hyunjin has a lot of unreleased song and he play it in skz camp but not all part of it. His unreleased tracks are Spring and Beautiful I forgot the others but it's a collab with BangChan and he also made a song for I.N it was cute but it's still unreleased too. Most of it are R&B he loves that. Just today in their vc fansign he told a stay that he is working on lovesong these days. Hyunjin had one released song called "little stars" It is about his first dog that passed away, it was very sad and heart warming as a fur parent
Thanks for the reaction! I really enjoy it. It looks like you will cry too if you react to the song "you can STAY". Honestly, having the fan club named STAY was like a real genius move when it comes to songwriting cause you can use that in so many context. It's great!
I love how every time you watched Lee knows little dance at the end you were laughing so hard. I replied that part so many times just to watch your laugh. You bring me so much joy and I love watching all your videos
could you tell me the part where Felix saw that their music was up? I saw that Han and Hyunjin saw and showed it to the camera and hugged but I didn’t see Felix. I think I missed it
Loved your reaction Caitlin!! If you are going to watch the Live version of Domino, you should check out the stage from Inkigayo. The camera work suits really well with their performance! Also about SKZOO, they each have their own characters as an animal. If you are watching SKZcode you might hear a lot of this , especially dwaekki😆 Chris_Wolf Lee know_Rabbit Changbin_Pig+Rabiit(Dwaekki) Han_Quokka Hyunjin_Ferret Felix_Chick Seungmin_Puppy IN_Foxy They were wearing the SKZOO Character costumes in the performance! Hope this would be informative! :) If you have a chance hope you will check on ‘Step out 2022’ (do not need to be a reaction video😉)which is basically the plan for 2022. Felix is the host of the presentation!
"Put your tongue back in your mouth!" LMAO. Loved your reactions! And yes, that was Felix singing in LoveStay. I've never heard him sing in that tone. I loved it!
Harmonies in Secret Secret get me every time- then the lyrics! Domino- one of their best choreography EVER. Which is saying something when it’s Stray Kids.
Every idol has a representative emoji in kpop, but Stray Kids made it special. They released SKZOO as merch for every member and his animal emoji, and they even have their own names! Bang Chan - Wolfchan (🐺) Lee Know - Leebit (🐰) Changbin - Dwaekki (🐰+🐷) Hyunjin - Jiniret (his emoji is 🦙 but his skzoo animal is a ferret) Han - Han Quokka (his emoji is 🐿 but his skzoo is, well.. a quokka ofc) Felix - BbokAri (🐥) Seungmin - PuppyM (🐶) I.N - FoxI.Ny (his emoji is 🦊 but his skzoo is actually a fennec fox)
Thank you for having a real moment with #LoveSTAY. I get why TH-cam influencers don’t want to be seen on camera crying. But, as long as the tears are real, and I know yours are real, I appreciate it. We feel the same way and it’s good to have a shared experience.
For the skzoo video, I'm not 100% sure when or how it started, but each member is dressed as an animal that stay says the kinda look like. (The animal is the same as the emojis used to represent the members like for Chan's room he also puts a wolf emoji.)
Yeh every animal is what the fans say members look like minus Changbin who his dwaekki (pigrabbit) started as an inside joke because he tried to make a rabbit out of plasticine and the members said they couldn’t tell if it was a pig or a rabbit and this stuck on so much it started to become changbin’s thing
Placebo is actually a mixtape track they released with their first album !! (Its an ot8 version of a 3racha song and they did that for 5 other songs) I know youre not exactly learning about them anymore but itd be so cool if you reacted to their older albums, theres so many good songs you havent heard yet. Since its all mini albums (7 songs each except for Yellow wood which is only 3) but its compiled into two trilogies, I suggest you do a I am: series reaction (I am not, I am who and I am you) and a Clé: series reaction (Miroh, yellow wood and levanter) !! (But ofc you do whatevers the best for you no pressure). Also you could just react to skz 2021 ( or 2020) which is a bunch of older songs they rereleased without woojins voice in it !! Placebo was in it thats why this mv was released for the holidays
omGEE over 40 minutes of SKZ content from you, my heart is so happy!! Thank you so much for reacting to these and for loving and appreciating all their hard work. I cry every time I hear #LoveSTAY but feel so warm and loved at the same time. All the captions/lyrics in the actual video are written in their own handwritings too 😭 2022 is gonna be a SKZ year....a full 12 months with all 8 members and they're gonna dominate! They've come so far, I'm so happy for them and PROUD to be a Stay.
not sure if anyone already explained but basically skzoo (zoo being like animals) is their merchandise that fans can buy, and each member has their representative animal. And even before this merchandise they were already sort of represented with these animals because. Chan is a wolf, Lee Know is a bunny, Changbin is a pig + bunny (so it's a pink bunny with a pig's nose hehe and known as dwaekki which is a combination of pig and rabbit in korean), Hyunjin is a ferret, Han is a quokka, Felix is a chick, Seungmin is a puppy, I.N is a desert fox
'This is my first time watching their dance practice' you just started hard LMAO its my fave choreo as of now haha love ur reactions, esp noticing I.N thanxx
I LOVE the SKZOOs so so much! They're the freaking cutest!! And the Thunderous performance is one of my favourites just from how unhinged everyone is!! Hyunjin is ALWAYS giving a hundred and 20 percent in every performance. Man does not know how to chill!! Even in their Relays, boy just pops off!! Also, the fact that all of them almost lose their heads at least once because they're so heavy is so funny!! Poor Innie haha Channie really just went for him in that last second haha and Felix losing his foot is somehow so cuuute!! i can not with Felix in this!! Hearing his deep-ass voice coming out of sweet Bbokari is sureal haha Ithink they all had their movements - I mean, Innie covering Quokka's eyes instead of Han's is both adorable and hilarious - but the one who takes the cake for me is Minho. He is such a menece in this and for LITERLY NO REASON!! He's very much inhabiting the evil bunny persona here!! I mean, him shoulder-checking I.N out of the way was unessecary haha and they way he just casually starts a slap-war with Chan and Hyunjin during Felix's and Jisung's back-and-forth just for shits and giggles... like he legit tries to slap the shit out of them, he doesnt hold back AT ALL!! And for what?? Boy is unhinged. A menace for real haha.... my god, I love these boys so so so so much. I know others have commented similar things, but i figured there's no harm saying it again lol.. The SKZOO's are their animal representation, and they all have names: - Chan's wolf is Wolf Chan (such a creative name, Chris haha) - Minho's rabbit is LeeBit (Lee from Lee Know, Bit from rabbit) - Changbin's pig-bunny combo is Dwaekki (the combination of the Korean words for pig (dwaeji) and bunny (tokki)) - Hyunjin's ferret is Jinniret (Jinni from HyunJIN (Jin = Jinnie) and Ret from ferret) - Han's quokka is Han Quokka (again, super creative lol) - Felix's chick is BbokAri (pronounced bok-ar-rii) (Bbok from Felix's Korean name, Yongbok, and Ari from the Korean word for chick (byeongari)) - Seungmin's puppy is PuppyM (the M comes from SeungMin, and the members (and stay) often call him Minnie) - Jeongin's fox is FoxI.Ny (pronounced fox-in-nee) (pretty self-explanatory, fox because he's a fox, I.N from his stage name) Their SKZOO's are a reflection of their personalities/appearance; - Chan is fiercely protective like a wolf and the kids are like his cubs - he is very Dad-coded, - Minho is kinda hectic and wild like a rabbit and when he smiles or smirks you can often see his two front teeth poking out, - Changbin is cute and sweet like a bunny and loves food and is quite stocky, so the combination of a pig and bunny fits him best, - Hyunjin is referred to as a weasel or ferret because he is tall and slim and wiry and moves around all slinky-like a ferret, plus he's dramatic as hell and ferrets are quite hyper little things, - Jisung is often referred to as a squirrel or hamster or quokka because of his cute adorable cheeks and his habit of storing food in them while he eats, plus his happiness is contagious and if you see photos of him and a quokka next to each other the resemblance is striking (and just to add, a Quokka is an adorable animal native to Austraila, they're marsupials and are known for being the "happiest" animal on earth because they are literally always smiling. Please, if you need a boost of serotonin, look them up, they are the cutest!), - Felix is bright and cute and sweet like a chick, he's always smiling and chirping and following his members around and is just so full of love and happiness and light, - Seungmin is loyal and cute like a puppy, and he kind of looks like one with his puppy-like eyes and the way his hair flops around when he's dancing or jumping about looks like puppy ears - he's very sweet like a puppy but also just sort of crazy and a menace like a hyper-energetic puppy and he just loves to bounce around and randomly bark... so yes. a puppy, - Jeongin is very cute like a fox and his eyes being long and narrow make him look like a fox, especially when he smiles - plus, you wouldn't know it just by looking at him because he has a very sweet almost innocent exterior, but he can be quite sly when he wants to and often says out-of-pocket things that leave his members (and stay) shocked because they're not expecting that from their sweet precious maknae lol Anyway... that was a very long comment, especially on a year old video, but I just love these boys so so so much and I absolutely adore your reactions!!
the Hashtag #LoveSTAY is created by hyunjin , its like his # that he always uses and is his bio in bubble since forever, when hyunjin had the long break, chan tried to comfort us in saying that "whoever created the #LoveSTAY is a beautiful person" because they werent allowed to say his name . Every member has his own Plushie that resembles them for example Felix is the chicken or Seungmin is a puppy, its like their trademark. (sry if there are any mistakes, english is not my first language) :)
I hope that in the future you can react to their solo tracks, like Bang Chan's 'I hate to admit', Changbin's 'Streetlight', Hyunjin's 'Little Star', etc.
I'm crying with you.... lovestay it's a very moving song, I love it.. I cried a lot.. I will STAY forever... cuz for details like these I love stray kids.
Woooo this set up is great! Loved getting to see these reactions with you! Good on you mentioning SKZ Code on your patreon, that's my favorites series so I will head over to check it out!
skz2021 is a compilation of 3-4 old songs rerecorded as 8 member, they also slightly changed the lyrics and some melodies, it's something they did in 2020 as well and as of rn they have rerecorded almost their whole discography
Placebo is the ot8 remake of Mixtape 1, renamed Placebo to reflect the 3RACHA rap it was based on (all the numbered mixtapes [1-5] were based on 3RACHA raps, and the new ot8 remakes now all bear versions of the original rap titles). The members wrote their own parts in the numbered mixtapes, so the lyrics are particularly personal. And the remakes have had lyrical changes both to update references that originally referred to nine members and to replace the lines Woojin wrote for himself with lines written by the remaining members so the credits can be updated. I was gonna write up a definition of placebo (pluh-SEE-boh) since you weren't sure on the word, but then I remembered dictionaries exist, so I just grabbed this instead: "a substance or procedure that resembles a treatment but does not actually act on a disease or condition; in effect, a fake treatment, offered for experimental or other reasons." There's something called the placebo effect that's based on this, which is referenced in the song and is largely what they're talking about in regards to placebos, but I'll leave it to you to google it if you're interested.
Since you mentioned live performances, I highly recommend watching their end of the year performances: AAA 2021 (Domino, 3racha special performance and thunderous): th-cam.com/video/lAKKiOI5kbU/w-d-xo.html Mama 2021 (cheese, 3racha performance, thunderous hero ver.): 1. th-cam.com/video/P0dRKB3n16E/w-d-xo.html 2. th-cam.com/video/T8ReNXU5-kE/w-d-xo.html KBS gayo 2021 (a super cool version of thunderous): th-cam.com/video/0lSbFkEiWg0/w-d-xo.html SBS gayo 2021 (winter falls and thunderous Christmas ver.

the thing with Domino is that the choreo is and looks sooooo tiring but its so fun to perform and u can tell the members enjoy performing it which just makes the dance 10x as good
you won't necessarily have to start from the beginning if you are planning to do a listening party for SKZ 2021 and SKZ 2020. These two albums are re-recorded versions of the songs from their debut as 9, with slight changes like ofc the lines and mastering. Apart from about 5 songs everything is re-recorded so far probably for their own personal reasons with the past. Once you're done with those you can start with the LEVANTER album and go from there :) Thanks for the reaction! Excited for SKZ CODE on patreon!!!
SKZ2021 is a rerecording of all their older songs! Most of the songs lyrics contain their struggles, finding their voice and hope, because it's made around their debut until pre-Levanter era. It's really good. They were such amazing rookies. They also said that they finally found their sound when they released God's Menu as title track (Zach Sang interview). Thank you for the amazing reaction!
I'd been on the fence for joining your Patreon for a while but SKZ CODE YOU GOT IT BABY. Thank you for showing these boys love, they're so captivating once you get to know them!
YESSSSS i got so excited seeing Placebo on the lineup today. it's an old mixtape track of theirs that they rerecorded recently (the old original version has woojin in it, they've rerecorded a lot of their old tracks and redistributed his lines and whatnot). i'm so happy they released an official version of placebo because it's such an amazing track. one of my top favorite stray kids songs.
I really love there dance practices and there relay dances. They are mind-blowing and the relay dances are hilariously funny too Btw. I love how you feeling the songs. It makes me so happy seeing your reactions
Placebo act from their debut album.. originally its a mixtape, which means its a 3racha song then they made it into ot8, all mixtapes the lyrics are written by all skz member ❤
Omg girl...I'm so happy I stumbled upon this reaction! I love them so much. And it was so much fun watching you lose your mind over them. Because...same! Lol. Hope to see more from you. ❤
OMG I have been so excited for you to finally see the insanity that is the Domino choreo lol I cannot. also YES SKZ CODE IM STOKED YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE IT AND THEM EVEN MORE
You’d never seen one of their dance practices before this? Oh wow. My personal favorite dance practice is Miroh, so whenever you get a chance to watch that, please do. Even if you don’t react to it (though I would love to see it), you just need to watch it. An honorable mention goes to Easy, because I’m Chan biased, and he’s ridiculously hot in that video
The suits are the SKZOO and they are the plushie version of the members. It's SKZ merch. Also, placebo is one of their earlier songs. They are remaking their older songs into OT8 version, last year they released the album SKZ 2020 and the most recent was SKZ 2021, where they release the songs version of 8 members. So they released the video as a gift for stays along with the remake of the song, there are some performance videos from the 2020 version, recommend you check it out, it's pretty awesome.
15:10 I'm so glad you enjoyed their domino dance practice! Yep they dance that way everytime.. So If you have time you'll never be disappointed on watching their other dance practices. 😊
I've been watching your channel since near the start of the kpop journey(on my main youtube account lol) but I am just now realizing how many of the same biases we share. Binnie is one of my ults, and he even shares my birthday!
incase no one commented it, stray kids have animal characters lmaooo its called skzoo. seungmin is puppym, changbin is dwaekki (pigrabbit), lee know is lee bit (bunny), Felix is Bbokari (chick), chan is Wolf Chan, Hyunjin is jinret (ferret), Han is quokka, I.N is Foxl.Ny (desert fox). you'll see these characters a lot in the skzcode episodes
the fact that hyunjin wrote #lovestay while he was on hiatus because he read stays letters and got inspired & missed us makes it 10x worse 😭 like he said one night he went star gazing and he said he would have wished that the stars were stays instead and it fits the lyrics so well :(
Placebo is originally a 3RACHA track turned into a Stray Kids song entitled Mixtape #1 in their Clé 2: Yellow Wood mini-album (Mixtapes #1-4 are here, too! and all the members took part in writing their verses in the mixtapes). Since 2020, they’ve been releasing re-recorded versions of their entire discography (SKZ2020 and SKZ2021, so far) without the ex-member. The Placebo video is a special video project by the kids in their recent SKZ-Code episode as a christmas gift to STAYs. You should listen to their SKZ2021!! the re-recorded versions sounds sooo amazing
Gorl I cried together with you in the #lovestay vid. The fact it was made by hyunjin I am alr feeling something bc he did this during hiatus and now as new yr gift. Skz is full of love indeed and I'm happy they felt stay support throughout the yrs. Love your channel, ty sm for your time!
I was a blubbering mess with Lovestay. That is essentially my husband and I's love story. I have some serious health issues, and he's been by my side for 11 years.
It’s quite amusing that u said u would bawl if hyunjin releases a song and u also had to react to #lovestay, a hyunjin made song. U went through so many emotions in this reaction omg hahahaaa
I love your reactions bc you truly genuinely enjoy their music and the kids will be so happy to see that 🥺 Thank you for this wonderful video! Happy New Year! 🎊
This is Skzoo basically animal counter parts kinda like Tinytan They're usually little animations of the animals doing dances Bangchan-wolf Hyunjin-cat Felix-chic Changbin-pig Han-chimpuck(i think ) I.N-fox Lee know-bunny/rabit Seungmin -dog
Hyunjin actually has a solo song called Little Star and it's such a beautiful and emotional song dedicated to his dog who passed away 🥺
Was it Kkami?? 🥺
@@effie1568 no, Kkami is fine, it was about another dog called Kkomi he had first when he was younger
@@lululuc aaaaw, I didn’t know. Thank you for informing me 💖

Hyunjin was an only child, so imagine getting a playmate, a friend, and a new family member just to lose them sooo early...
He told STAYS that sometimes when he looks at Kkami(current dog)'s picture he taken, he would feel upset and cry realizing he never really had much pictures of Kkomi.

Omg Secret Secret is so amazing, i love this song, that's so beautiful

I cannot read this not in Han's voice xD

The costumes for the Skzoo Thunderous performance are kind of their representative animals (used on social media, for merch ect.):
Bang Chan: Wolfchan, wolf
LeeKnow: leebit, rabbit
Changbin: Dwaekki, pig-rabbit
Hyunjin: jiniret, ferret
Han: HanQuokka, quokka
Felix: BbokAri, chick
Seungmin: PuppyM, puppy
I.N.: FoxI.Ny, desert fox
trust me on interviews and their reality shows they're like totally different human beings😭 their sense of humor never fails to make stays laugh

YES FELIX IS SINGING!! I love his voice so much, I need more Felix vocals!!!! Love your Stray Kids reactions!!!

in placebo, each of the members wrote their own parts (as well as in the rest of the mixtapes) so the lyrics are super special

Maybe his songs will be in their SKZ player/record album with other new songs too... That would be so great 🥺☺️🤡
@@isidnsl6651 I hope so
Please Caitlin, consider to watch their FIRST TAKE PERFORMANCES! That is so amazing! Scars, Slump and Oh are they entry in that videos! 💓🙏🔥💯✨
Thanks for the reaction! I really enjoy it. It looks like you will cry too if you react to the song "you can STAY". Honestly, having the fan club named STAY was like a real genius move when it comes to songwriting cause you can use that in so many context. It's great!
and on the lyrics, if there's a stay on it, they always put in capital letter like STAY and thats beautiful
I love how every time you watched Lee knows little dance at the end you were laughing so hard. I replied that part so many times just to watch your laugh. You bring me so much joy and I love watching all your videos
LoveStay hit me so hard, the scene where Felix saw that their music was up on the chart just broke me, THEY DESERVE THE WORLD!
could you tell me the part where Felix saw that their music was up? I saw that Han and Hyunjin saw and showed it to the camera and hugged but I didn’t see Felix. I think I missed it
That was hyunjin and han
Loved your reaction Caitlin!!
If you are going to watch the Live version of Domino, you should check out the stage from Inkigayo. The camera work suits really well with their performance!
Also about SKZOO, they each have their own characters as an animal. If you are watching SKZcode you might hear a lot of this , especially dwaekki😆
Chris_Wolf
Lee know_Rabbit
Changbin_Pig+Rabiit(Dwaekki)
Han_Quokka
Hyunjin_Ferret
Felix_Chick
Seungmin_Puppy
IN_Foxy
They were wearing the SKZOO Character costumes in the performance!
Hope this would be informative! :)
If you have a chance hope you will check on ‘Step out 2022’ (do not need to be a reaction video😉)which is basically the plan for 2022. Felix is the host of the presentation!
SKZOO characters are so cute. I'm crying.
I could not resist and bought Leebit (leeknow+rabbit) :)
"Put your tongue back in your mouth!" LMAO. Loved your reactions! And yes, that was Felix singing in LoveStay. I've never heard him sing in that tone. I loved it!
STAY ASSEMBLE! WE HAVE BEEN SUMMONED ✨
Harmonies in Secret Secret get me every time- then the lyrics!
Domino- one of their best choreography EVER. Which is saying something when it’s Stray Kids.
Every idol has a representative emoji in kpop, but Stray Kids made it special.
They released SKZOO as merch for every member and his animal emoji, and they even have their own names!
Bang Chan - Wolfchan (🐺)
Lee Know - Leebit (🐰)
Changbin - Dwaekki (🐰+🐷)
Hyunjin - Jiniret (his emoji is 🦙 but his skzoo animal is a ferret)
Han - Han Quokka (his emoji is 🐿 but his skzoo is, well.. a quokka ofc)
Felix - BbokAri (🐥)
Seungmin - PuppyM (🐶)
I.N - FoxI.Ny (his emoji is 🦊 but his skzoo is actually a fennec fox)
Thank you for having a real moment with #LoveSTAY. I get why TH-cam influencers don’t want to be seen on camera crying. But, as long as the tears are real, and I know yours are real, I appreciate it. We feel the same way and it’s good to have a shared experience.
For the skzoo video, I'm not 100% sure when or how it started, but each member is dressed as an animal that stay says the kinda look like. (The animal is the same as the emojis used to represent the members like for Chan's room he also puts a wolf emoji.)
Yeh every animal is what the fans say members look like minus Changbin who his dwaekki (pigrabbit) started as an inside joke because he tried to make a rabbit out of plasticine and the members said they couldn’t tell if it was a pig or a rabbit and this stuck on so much it started to become changbin’s thing
Placebo is actually a mixtape track they released with their first album !! (Its an ot8 version of a 3racha song and they did that for 5 other songs) I know youre not exactly learning about them anymore but itd be so cool if you reacted to their older albums, theres so many good songs you havent heard yet. Since its all mini albums (7 songs each except for Yellow wood which is only 3) but its compiled into two trilogies, I suggest you do a I am: series reaction (I am not, I am who and I am you) and a Clé: series reaction (Miroh, yellow wood and levanter) !! (But ofc you do whatevers the best for you no pressure). Also you could just react to skz 2021 ( or 2020) which is a bunch of older songs they rereleased without woojins voice in it !! Placebo was in it thats why this mv was released for the holidays
omGEE over 40 minutes of SKZ content from you, my heart is so happy!! Thank you so much for reacting to these and for loving and appreciating all their hard work. I cry every time I hear #LoveSTAY but feel so warm and loved at the same time. All the captions/lyrics in the actual video are written in their own handwritings too 😭 2022 is gonna be a SKZ year....a full 12 months with all 8 members and they're gonna dominate! They've come so far, I'm so happy for them and PROUD to be a Stay.
I've been itching for new skz reactions, I'm so happy you uploaded this! Cheers Caitlin xx
not sure if anyone already explained but basically skzoo (zoo being like animals) is their merchandise that fans can buy, and each member has their representative animal. And even before this merchandise they were already sort of represented with these animals because. Chan is a wolf, Lee Know is a bunny, Changbin is a pig + bunny (so it's a pink bunny with a pig's nose hehe and known as dwaekki which is a combination of pig and rabbit in korean), Hyunjin is a ferret, Han is a quokka, Felix is a chick, Seungmin is a puppy, I.N is a desert fox
'This is my first time watching their dance practice' you just started hard LMAO its my fave choreo as of now haha love ur reactions, esp noticing I.N thanxx
I LOVE the SKZOOs so so much! They're the freaking cutest!! And the Thunderous performance is one of my favourites just from how unhinged everyone is!! Hyunjin is ALWAYS giving a hundred and 20 percent in every performance. Man does not know how to chill!! Even in their Relays, boy just pops off!! Also, the fact that all of them almost lose their heads at least once because they're so heavy is so funny!! Poor Innie haha Channie really just went for him in that last second haha and Felix losing his foot is somehow so cuuute!! i can not with Felix in this!! Hearing his deep-ass voice coming out of sweet Bbokari is sureal haha Ithink they all had their movements - I mean, Innie covering Quokka's eyes instead of Han's is both adorable and hilarious - but the one who takes the cake for me is Minho. He is such a menece in this and for LITERLY NO REASON!! He's very much inhabiting the evil bunny persona here!! I mean, him shoulder-checking I.N out of the way was unessecary haha and they way he just casually starts a slap-war with Chan and Hyunjin during Felix's and Jisung's back-and-forth just for shits and giggles... like he legit tries to slap the shit out of them, he doesnt hold back AT ALL!! And for what?? Boy is unhinged. A menace for real haha.... my god, I love these boys so so so so much.
I know others have commented similar things, but i figured there's no harm saying it again lol.. The SKZOO's are their animal representation, and they all have names:
- Chan's wolf is Wolf Chan (such a creative name, Chris haha)
- Minho's rabbit is LeeBit (Lee from Lee Know, Bit from rabbit)
- Changbin's pig-bunny combo is Dwaekki (the combination of the Korean words for pig (dwaeji) and bunny (tokki))
- Hyunjin's ferret is Jinniret (Jinni from HyunJIN (Jin = Jinnie) and Ret from ferret)
- Han's quokka is Han Quokka (again, super creative lol)
- Felix's chick is BbokAri (pronounced bok-ar-rii) (Bbok from Felix's Korean name, Yongbok, and Ari from the Korean word for chick (byeongari))
- Seungmin's puppy is PuppyM (the M comes from SeungMin, and the members (and stay) often call him Minnie)
- Jeongin's fox is FoxI.Ny (pronounced fox-in-nee) (pretty self-explanatory, fox because he's a fox, I.N from his stage name)
Their SKZOO's are a reflection of their personalities/appearance;
- Chan is fiercely protective like a wolf and the kids are like his cubs - he is very Dad-coded,
- Minho is kinda hectic and wild like a rabbit and when he smiles or smirks you can often see his two front teeth poking out,
- Changbin is cute and sweet like a bunny and loves food and is quite stocky, so the combination of a pig and bunny fits him best,
- Hyunjin is referred to as a weasel or ferret because he is tall and slim and wiry and moves around all slinky-like a ferret, plus he's dramatic as hell and ferrets are quite hyper little things,
- Jisung is often referred to as a squirrel or hamster or quokka because of his cute adorable cheeks and his habit of storing food in them while he eats, plus his happiness is contagious and if you see photos of him and a quokka next to each other the resemblance is striking (and just to add, a Quokka is an adorable animal native to Austraila, they're marsupials and are known for being the "happiest" animal on earth because they are literally always smiling. Please, if you need a boost of serotonin, look them up, they are the cutest!),
- Felix is bright and cute and sweet like a chick, he's always smiling and chirping and following his members around and is just so full of love and happiness and light,
- Seungmin is loyal and cute like a puppy, and he kind of looks like one with his puppy-like eyes and the way his hair flops around when he's dancing or jumping about looks like puppy ears - he's very sweet like a puppy but also just sort of crazy and a menace like a hyper-energetic puppy and he just loves to bounce around and randomly bark... so yes. a puppy,
- Jeongin is very cute like a fox and his eyes being long and narrow make him look like a fox, especially when he smiles - plus, you wouldn't know it just by looking at him because he has a very sweet almost innocent exterior, but he can be quite sly when he wants to and often says out-of-pocket things that leave his members (and stay) shocked because they're not expecting that from their sweet precious maknae lol
Anyway... that was a very long comment, especially on a year old video, but I just love these boys so so so much and I absolutely adore your reactions!!
the Hashtag #LoveSTAY is created by hyunjin , its like his # that he always uses and is his bio in bubble since forever, when hyunjin had the long break, chan tried to comfort us in saying that "whoever created the #LoveSTAY is a beautiful person" because they werent allowed to say his name .
Every member has his own Plushie that resembles them for example Felix is the chicken or Seungmin is a puppy, its like their trademark.
(sry if there are any mistakes, english is not my first language) :)
Just started the intro and you have already made my day just by saying hey bubbles ... yay thank you lets do this ! 💓
I hope that in the future you can react to their solo tracks, like Bang Chan's 'I hate to admit', Changbin's 'Streetlight', Hyunjin's 'Little Star', etc.
I'm crying with you.... lovestay it's a very moving song, I love it.. I cried a lot.. I will STAY forever... cuz for details like these I love stray kids.
I literally cried with you😅 Lovestay always makes me cry. Thank you so much for this reaction! I appreciate it!🤍🤍
Woooo this set up is great! Loved getting to see these reactions with you! Good on you mentioning SKZ Code on your patreon, that's my favorites series so I will head over to check it out!
skz2021 is a compilation of 3-4 old songs rerecorded as 8 member, they also slightly changed the lyrics and some melodies, it's something they did in 2020 as well and as of rn they have rerecorded almost their whole discography
Placebo is the ot8 remake of Mixtape 1, renamed Placebo to reflect the 3RACHA rap it was based on (all the numbered mixtapes [1-5] were based on 3RACHA raps, and the new ot8 remakes now all bear versions of the original rap titles). The members wrote their own parts in the numbered mixtapes, so the lyrics are particularly personal. And the remakes have had lyrical changes both to update references that originally referred to nine members and to replace the lines Woojin wrote for himself with lines written by the remaining members so the credits can be updated.
I was gonna write up a definition of placebo (pluh-SEE-boh) since you weren't sure on the word, but then I remembered dictionaries exist, so I just grabbed this instead: "a substance or procedure that resembles a treatment but does not actually act on a disease or condition; in effect, a fake treatment, offered for experimental or other reasons." There's something called the placebo effect that's based on this, which is referenced in the song and is largely what they're talking about in regards to placebos, but I'll leave it to you to google it if you're interested.
Since you mentioned live performances, I highly recommend watching their end of the year performances:

the SBS Gayo one is amazing, its a full on musical
They were supposed to have a music video for domino, there’s even a short clip for it but they just didn’t put it out for some reason 🤷♀️
Love the content! Some other stray kid recommendations! M.I.A, awkward silence, get cool, insomnia, my pace!
I REALLY ENJOY THIS #SKZ REACTION VIDEO😭👏
thank you!! love thissss
the thing with Domino is that the choreo is and looks sooooo tiring but its so fun to perform and u can tell the members enjoy performing it which just makes the dance 10x as good
Always look forward to your reactions
skz2021 is an album (together with skz2020) where they re-recorded their old songs as 8 members, so without woojin
It's always fun watching your video. Thank you caitlin
you won't necessarily have to start from the beginning if you are planning to do a listening party for SKZ 2021 and SKZ 2020. These two albums are re-recorded versions of the songs from their debut as 9, with slight changes like ofc the lines and mastering. Apart from about 5 songs everything is re-recorded so far probably for their own personal reasons with the past. Once you're done with those you can start with the LEVANTER album and go from there :) Thanks for the reaction! Excited for SKZ CODE on patreon!!!
SKZ2021 is a rerecording of all their older songs! Most of the songs lyrics contain their struggles, finding their voice and hope, because it's made around their debut until pre-Levanter era. It's really good. They were such amazing rookies. They also said that they finally found their sound when they released God's Menu as title track (Zach Sang interview). Thank you for the amazing reaction!
I'd been on the fence for joining your Patreon for a while but SKZ CODE YOU GOT IT BABY. Thank you for showing these boys love, they're so captivating once you get to know them!
YESSSSS i got so excited seeing Placebo on the lineup today. it's an old mixtape track of theirs that they rerecorded recently (the old original version has woojin in it, they've rerecorded a lot of their old tracks and redistributed his lines and whatnot). i'm so happy they released an official version of placebo because it's such an amazing track. one of my top favorite stray kids songs.
I NEED to see more dance practice reactions from you!!! All their dances are FIIIREE and you gonna be living!!!
I really love there dance practices and there relay dances. They are mind-blowing and the relay dances are hilariously funny too
Btw. I love how you feeling the songs. It makes me so happy seeing your reactions
Placebo act from their debut album.. originally its a mixtape, which means its a 3racha song then they made it into ot8, all mixtapes the lyrics are written by all skz member ❤
Omg girl...I'm so happy I stumbled upon this reaction! I love them so much. And it was so much fun watching you lose your mind over them. Because...same! Lol. Hope to see more from you. ❤
OMG THIS UPLOAD JUST MADE MY DAY!! THANK YOU SO MUCH
OMG I have been so excited for you to finally see the insanity that is the Domino choreo lol I cannot. also YES SKZ CODE IM STOKED YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE IT AND THEM EVEN MORE
You’d never seen one of their dance practices before this? Oh wow. My personal favorite dance practice is Miroh, so whenever you get a chance to watch that, please do. Even if you don’t react to it (though I would love to see it), you just need to watch it. An honorable mention goes to Easy, because I’m Chan biased, and he’s ridiculously hot in that video
The suits are the SKZOO and they are the plushie version of the members. It's SKZ merch.
Also, placebo is one of their earlier songs. They are remaking their older songs into OT8 version, last year they released the album SKZ 2020 and the most recent was SKZ 2021, where they release the songs version of 8 members. So they released the video as a gift for stays along with the remake of the song, there are some performance videos from the 2020 version, recommend you check it out, it's pretty awesome.
Yay SKZ! 😁
Also, absolutely love it every time you praise Jeongin's vocals ❤
I missed your skz reactions sm, i'm gonna cry😭
Omggg her reaction and appreciation to each and every member of skz 😘😘
thank u so much for reacting to this! i love ur reactions so much omg
as soon as you started crying i was crying with you :( #LoveStay is just beautiful
Your reaction always make me laugh 😂 thanks caitlin! ♡
15:10 I'm so glad you enjoyed their domino dance practice! Yep they dance that way everytime.. So If you have time you'll never be disappointed on watching their other dance practices. 😊
The skzoo thunderous video is one of my all time fav Stray Kids videos 💖
Secret secret is definitely my favorite song of 2021😭😭😍😍
Not me crying with you in #lovestay video when I already cried 100 time before
I love your reaction
I've been watching your channel since near the start of the kpop journey(on my main youtube account lol) but I am just now realizing how many of the same biases we share. Binnie is one of my ults, and he even shares my birthday!
My favorite vocals from Seungmin is in Secret Secret.🥰
I think if u also watch their “music video makings” u can see their personalities too!
I absolutely enjoyed this so much. I love them so much and you too.
Your reaction to the skzoo dance practice was hilarious hahaha i laughed more at you loving it so much than the video itself
incase no one commented it, stray kids have animal characters lmaooo its called skzoo. seungmin is puppym, changbin is dwaekki (pigrabbit), lee know is lee bit (bunny), Felix is Bbokari (chick), chan is Wolf Chan, Hyunjin is jinret (ferret), Han is quokka, I.N is Foxl.Ny (desert fox). you'll see these characters a lot in the skzcode episodes
Aaaaaaaa I just refreshed your page and voilà 🥺❤️
These were so goooood!!! I hope you check out their other dance practices at some point! (Even just in your own time) they are so well done!
the fact that hyunjin wrote #lovestay while he was on hiatus because he read stays letters and got inspired & missed us makes it 10x worse 😭 like he said one night he went star gazing and he said he would have wished that the stars were stays instead and it fits the lyrics so well :(
Being a good musicians, don't forget they are ALL good dancers 😏❤️
your reaction are the best,,, they feel so genuine
u have no idea how happy and excited ur reactions makes me feel hahah i love u so much
OMG YESSSS ANOTHER SKZ CONTENT FROM MY FAVORITE REACTORRR ACKK I'M LIVING IN MY BEST LIFE RN
even their outfit are black and white like Domino
I missed you Caitlin !! stay safe and I love you ❤️
Placebo is originally a 3RACHA track turned into a Stray Kids song entitled Mixtape #1 in their Clé 2: Yellow Wood mini-album (Mixtapes #1-4 are here, too! and all the members took part in writing their verses in the mixtapes). Since 2020, they’ve been releasing re-recorded versions of their entire discography (SKZ2020 and SKZ2021, so far) without the ex-member. The Placebo video is a special video project by the kids in their recent SKZ-Code episode as a christmas gift to STAYs. You should listen to their SKZ2021!! the re-recorded versions sounds sooo amazing
Gorl I cried together with you in the #lovestay vid. The fact it was made by hyunjin I am alr feeling something bc he did this during hiatus and now as new yr gift. Skz is full of love indeed and I'm happy they felt stay support throughout the yrs. Love your channel, ty sm for your time!
I was a blubbering mess with Lovestay. That is essentially my husband and I's love story. I have some serious health issues, and he's been by my side for 11 years.
It's funny that when they said I don't play she said I better stop playing 😂😂😂. And damn her expressions are on point👌😂😂
girl i just love you and your reactions, keep up 🌸
The older songs are so pretty I am glad they re-recorded them into skz2021
I am just so obsessed with Secret Secret i cannot T---T its so beautiful and sad at the same time
It’s quite amusing that u said u would bawl if hyunjin releases a song and u also had to react to #lovestay, a hyunjin made song. U went through so many emotions in this reaction omg hahahaaa
I think you’ll enjoy watching Mixtape OH and Scars first take performances. They’re amazing ☘️
I love your reactions bc you truly genuinely enjoy their music and the kids will be so happy to see that 🥺 Thank you for this wonderful video! Happy New Year! 🎊
Your energy MADE MY DAY!
This is Skzoo basically animal counter parts kinda like Tinytan
They're usually little animations of the animals doing dances
Bangchan-wolf
Hyunjin-cat
Felix-chic
Changbin-pig
Han-chimpuck(i think )
I.N-fox
Lee know-bunny/rabit
Seungmin -dog
Hyunjin’s is a weasel not a cat
Han’s is a quokka
Changbin’s is a pig-rabbit not just a pig
