Kyungsoo does not only make consumption-oriented songs suitable for popular culture. He wants to tell stories with his voice and songs, he wants to touch the soul of those who wish and make them feel. He says this all the time. His songs are not one of those songs that fit into popular culture and are forgotten after a while. For example, That's Okay, released in 2019, is still one of the most recommended and most listened to songs on melon. So I think he achieved what he wanted to do with his songs. And although some constantly criticize his choices, at the end of the day he creates a solo identity that defies the years and is much loved. I love his voice and the way he reflects what he wants to say in his songs.
Agree 100 %. Kyungsoo is unique and his choices are smart. His album are not what as ordinaries exo fans are used to hear cause kyungsoo always sings rnb as D.O but little by little we learn kyungsoo's tastes and what he really want to share to us. Im very happy today. His 3rd album is a diamond. I dont know if it's because he is free from sm but news songs highlight his whole vocal spectre. Songs are so different from each other but both, we can appreciate kyungsoo's voice colors and singing techniques. Kyungsoo is more mature here. Voice, emotions, lyrics, vibes, all. I dont know how to explain but that's what i feel and i'm absolutely absolutely happy. I was not expected for less. Kyungsoo in solo is no more D.O. in EXO. We have 2 singers there and it's really precious. And with a great actor in mv !!!! Love it ❤
When I first listened to Simple Joys, i didnt even read the translation but it made me cry 😭 For some reason my heart understood the song... i'm in the stage of my life where I cherish the simplest things in life i took advantage when I was a kid. I became more emotional listening to the whole album knowing I am blessed with good music which helps me go on with life 🥺🥹 Thank you for this, Sir Austin. 🫶🏻
It’s the same director for both MVs (also for Somebody), so def get similar whimsical/sweet/nerdy protagonist vibes. I always appreciate your Kyungsoo and Exo reactions, you express yourself so well and Ialways find myself agreeing with you but I am not able to express myself as well, hahaha. After listening to the album the first time, My Dear and About Time were my immediate top 2 faves, I already forgot about Popcorn and Mars, hahaha. But after listening several times, every single song is just. It’s just too pretty. The emotions in each one. He really can make you feel all the feels. He truly is my favorite singer of all time. Thank you sir Austin, it’s really fun listening with you!!!
As a korean, the lyrics in the video appear to be auto-translated... maybe through Google Translate. It seems to translate Word for Word or phrase to phrase vs capturing the meaning of each sentence in the lyrics.
For me, I feel like the chronological order (D.O's songs with MV, is that That's Okay is the first one, then Somebody, Mars, Rose and last is Popcorn. The fact that it's hard to choose which song I lile the most because all pf his songs are so good. Argghhh I can't choose 😅😂
18:37 I thought that background vocal was Chanyeol too (but it’s not)! I love “Popcorn” the most, and the MV is super adorable! “About time” is so beautiful but i probably won’t listen to it all day. Whatever Kyungsoo deliver is great, and I am happy for him that he makes his own decision now
My Current Ranking.... 1. My Dear 2. Popcorn 3. About Time 4. Good Night 5. Mars 6. Simple Joys Hehehehhehe. But, THE WHOLE ALBUM SO AMAZING. I LOVE THIS ALBUM SO MUCH.
Yeah i was thinking to get better translation of songs too. The lyrics have contents to connect to the listeners, but translations failed to convey the meaning, especially translating 'i' and ' you' in many places
hey sir austin I'm a Filipino and i would like to request to you, you should react to Bini’s more music and also Alamat they're so iconic group this time.

And sorry if there is any mistake, english is not my first language.
Beautifully articulated! Agreed 100%!

About Time is my favorite song! The emotion in his voice hits my heart like an arrow! The whole album is wonderful. 😊😊
About Time has me snatched 😭😭
Kyungsoo vocals are so beautiful and he is telling stories with it. I’m in love! Thanks for your awesome reaction.
About time and goodnight are my favourites on the album too
Was listening casually to the album until About Time. Had to stop what i was doing and focus on the song. It's so good. But the lyricsss 😭
When I first listened to Simple Joys, i didnt even read the translation but it made me cry 😭 For some reason my heart understood the song... i'm in the stage of my life where I cherish the simplest things in life i took advantage when I was a kid.
