I like the longer format, there's so much to take in that it makes sense to go thru once to enjoy the video, the choreo and effects, transitions and imagery then separately to make sense of the lyrics and message. Learning the lore and following the storyline is a good idea too and a lot of Stay enjoy that kind of journey, plus ask for some recs for which guide is best right now, then there's so much content that isn't music videos, you have a lot of options😂
The thing I find with reactors who pick Stray Kids as their first boy group to react to, it's really hard to react to other boy groups because Stray Kids are so damn addictive 😍😍 They are their own genre 😍
Thank you for reacting! THUNDEROUS is such a fun clap back song to everyone who complained they only make noise music, and they said oh you thought that was loud .... HA we'll be absolutely thunderous. I've always taken the whole woodcutter thing to mean like "hey you hater, who's just hating to hate, get outta here, there's nothing to hate on"
I never had much interest in K-Pop until I somehow stumbled across Stray Kids. I thought (hoped) it would only be a phase, but nah. I got addicted to their "hard" style, the beat drops, the different genres in one song. Everything you mentioned already as well. I hope you STAY tuned. From what I heard of you, you'll definitely enjoy Freeze, Megaverse and S-Class.
Thunderous is definitely for the haters who have a problem with their “noise” music. They named this album Noeasy as a play on Noisy. They also have the behind the scenes making of their videos which are fun to watch. You should check out Backdoor. It is more funky but definitely a bop. I love the longer format!!!! ❤ THUNDEROUS 😊
Let's go Stray Kids! They are truly a powerhouse of a group with a lot of different music genres all wrapped in to one. The guys themselves have listed so many different artists that they personally enjoy and it comes across in how they make music. They definitely pull a lot from EDM and hip-hop. Thunderous specifically is steeped in traditional Korean motifs. The Korean title of the song, Sorrikun, means "singer" but more literally translates to "master of noise". As mentioned, the album this song comes off of, NoEasy (Noisy), is a response to the haters calling their music "noise music". They said, not only are we noisy, we are masters of noise and will ring out like thunder itself. In addition to the immense amount of wordplay within their music, this song in particular also references a traditional musical storytelling style called Pansori. It is a style of performance that has almost a rapping cadence in its narrative, which is the rap rhythm Changbin uses within his verse when he is waving the fan. Performers of Pansori are called Sorrikuns. The imagery is also reference to a traditional Korean story of the goblins, or Dokkaebi. They are often seen wearing traditional Korean clothing (hanbok) and having otherworldy powers. They often come to Earth to either cause mischief or help humans, depending on the situation and the whims of their own desires. SKZ are dokkaebi within the story of the M/V, with the animation starting with them being called from the heavens to come to Earth to help fight against the "villains" (aka the haters). KPOP M/Vs in general, but SKZ specifically, are usually full of wild and explosive imagery, so I often watch the M/V without subs a few times first. Then turn on subs if they have them. I also look up lyrics on Genius as they have a good community of people who will add notes on cultural references, metaphors, wordplay, etc. While I am music vibe first, having this further understanding of the lyrics, language, and culture has allowed me to further enjoy the music and really appreciate just how savvy these guys are when it comes to writing their music. Welcome to Stayville! I hope you enjoy your journey into their discography. And I hope, if seeing live music is something you enjoy, that you will get to see them live. Hands down the best concerts I have ever been to.
You will be given a LOT of mv's to react to, and they are ALL worth it! I'm just here to say, please don't shy away from songs without mv's! Some of my favorite songs are b-sides without mv's. You can still do a lyric video and in most cases a live performance reaction to the ones without mv's. -Cover Me -Hall of Fame -Item -Charmer -Taste These are some that are well worth the listen! I'm excited about your journey! Welcome to Stayville ❤
A lot of their lyrics are metaphors, and also very deep. Chris/Bang Chan (orange haired hot shirtless man) and Felix (deep voice) are Australian thus English is their native language. Chris is the leader and main songwriter, so he understands the language barrier well and uses a lot of word play, he is a lyrical genius 😊
Yes if you like songs that pack a punch I suggest: VENOM, FREEZE, SIDE EFFECTS, Double Knot, Megaverse, Topline & Maniac. You picked a good time to get into their music as there is a comeback in a couple of weeks 😊🎉❤
im so happy that i'm getting new stray kids reaction video everytime i open my youtube, you're one of my favorite reactor tbh, and i also love every single reactor who pay attention to SKZ lyrics bcs they wrote it all by themselves. thank you for starting this SKZ reaction!
Great reaction, baby STAY. :-) It's hard to say watch this or that .... they are all so good. But, if I have to: Hellevator, District 9, Back Door, S-Class, Venom, Topline, Lonely Street. No order there and there are way too many others. Also, check out their dance practices. AMAZING!
Hiiiiiii🎉🎉 só glad to see you reacting to them again ☺️☺️☺️ skz really is from a different bread, We are STAYS (explained by the boys) that since they are Stray Kids, if you remove the "r" from Stray =Stay , with "r" being the meaning for Stray Kids, we get all that together and conclude with the ending frase of the MVs "Stray Kids all around the world, you make stray kids stay" I think it's a giver that "megaverse" is something that we think you will like a lot, but for further full English songs, they also have "super bowl" (originally an full English song, but has an japanese version with music video, I would recommend the full English) Tip: #skz os also an interesting tag to include in the videos
In 2022 this song represented the culture of Korea at the world EXPO in Dubai in front of the heads of many countries of the world. The song has many elements of traditional Korean music. The basis is the use of traditional drums and its sound. And SKZ doesn't write music based on who and what can sing. They sing as they should for the song at this particular moment.
Tyty for another reaction!!! LOVED the long format...we STAYS will watch any amount of time you will give us😂. To answer your question, Stray Kids are lost/wandering, but their fans make them STAY. They say that the "R" you take out of stray (to form STAY) stands for the "reason" they do everything (meaning us). If you watch each mv until the very end, you will notice that they leave the same message to fans every time 🥰. I saw someone in the comments recommended that you react to LoveSTAY, which is a beautiful ballad type song that felix (the voice you like), hyunjin (the chef's kiss guy), and I.N wrote for us. I hope you do watch it, as it gives a really sweet glimpse into their personalities. Stray kids' music is absolute fire, and their production is genius (as you noticed by the way they subvert expectations and change things up), but their wholesomeness, caring, and humility are off the charts. On a side note, if you like dubstep, you would probably really like Freeze, and they released an OST called Why (lyrical video only) that is the epitome of "sonically pleasing."😂. Also, treat yourself to the unveil track of Mountains (a teaser for their upcoming album). It's so freaking cool😂. Tyty again for your time and interest in SKZ❤.
The "I'm not sorry we're dirty" is just saying they don't care if they do their oen thing. Though you gotta love how the Australians (Bang Chan and Felix) pronounce 'I'm dirty'. 😅
If you like their choreo, I would suggest checking out some of their dance practices too. Stray kids are on another level all around! The "chefs kiss" guy is Hyunjin (and I agree! 😂). His dances to when the parties over, play with fire, and motley crew are mind-blowing! My favorites from them that you haven't reacted to yet are easy, circus, top line, and venom. Although you can't go wrong with any of their songs. Ooooooo, also red lights! That one is a collab with just Hyunjin and Chan.
Fandom name comes from dropping the R from Stray and , also, because they are saying that the fans are what gives them a career.. a reason to be. The end of every mv is posted their catch phrase… “Stray kids everywhere all around the world you make Stray Kids stay”
SKZ are the founders of the third type of K-Pop called Mala-Tang (Mala-Taste) after the release of the hit "God's menu". Before SKZ, there were two main directions in K-Pop: Sweet and Salty. "Mala" means something like "pleasant spice", "Tang" literally means "soup". In some SKZ songs, you can count up to 8 different musical genres. That's why they often talk about their music as delicious meal. (Good meal is a kind of cult in Korea)
STAY on deck. Enjoyed your reaction. Stray kids give clues throughout or toward end of their Music Videos. Thunderous clues. The Thunderous one in on Thunderous Book page in Hyunjin hands. Thunderous have 3 hairstyles. Thunderous control Thunder. Actually there's Merch with the Thunderous One on Merch Felix. Thunderous T-shirts, hats, mugs, books, photos, dolls, animals, etc.
Stray Kids, the one and only. When they released God's Menu it was a big hit, and SKZ unique sound was recognized as its own genre, Mala Taste, named after a popular Chinese spicy soup, Malatang. But some people tried to downplay it by saying that it was just "noise" music. So, Thunderous was their response; if you think that was loud, let me show you how good really loud sounds. They even incorporated traditional Korean musical instruments just to make a point. The name of the album was NoEasy (noisy), and they also added another song, Cheese, that addresses some of the negative comments they received. Because they write their own music, a lot of their lyrics reflect what is on their minds and their experiences. They have songs about the mixed feelings of becoming adults and have tackled subjects like depression. A lot of their songs are very inspirational, about being yourself, not giving up, and not letting others influence you. But though a lot of SKZ's music is their inimitable energetic signature sound, their discography is very extensive, and it also includes beautiful ballads. They don't limit themselves to any particular style of music. They are always saying how much they haven't done, and how much more they want to try. During a recent interview (with kittens) I.N (the youngest) very specifically said he wants to try something sexy. LOL I can't wait!
Given your intro and comments, I would suggest "Freeze" and "Megaverse", though you'd probably be really surprised by just how amazing they were from the start. "Hellevator" was their pre-debut song, and "District 9" their debut song.
I loved the reaction to Thunderous. I love watching people discovering these awesome guys. Stray Kids have a huge discography of music that I’m sure you are going to enjoy. Keep reacting to Stray Kids and I’ll definitely keep watching. Their new mini album is going to be released 19 July 2024. So excited for “ATE”. ❤️🔥Thanks again for the reactions 🫶🏻
I like when reactors watch through twice for lyrics and visuals. For me, I think it works better to watch through first just focusing on the music and video, and then go back for the lyrics to understand better. There will be a lot of idioms, metaphors, and turns of phrase that just don't translate well if you don't have a background in Korean, either the language or culture. It's just something we must out on, sadly. There are people who go through their lyrics and give the cultural and linguistic context we don't have. Stray Kids use a LOT of wordplay, they're very clever. Often that wordplay involves both English and Korean in tandem. I look forward to watching you discover Stray Kids and other kpop.
15:10 Lee Felix (👹💀voice- 🐥☀️personality, Aussie) in free time louis vuitton ambassador - even was on the catwalk. 15:30 Hyunjin - (🔥on stage- Drama Queen in live 😅) in free time Versace global ambassador (Versace Prince - Donatella ptesented him with 👑😅) Actually they both like brothers/ soulmates/best friends 16:03 - Bang Chan - Lider! Best Lider! He was the one who chose all the members (that’s nearly impossible in k-pop industry) and he is behind 99.9 % of their beats 🤭
Edit: yes they are the thunderous ones. Stray Kids is often called loud or noisy. They named one of their albums Noisy as a clap-back and this song is 1000% a diss track to their haters lol. Welcome to STAY! We are called STAY because it's a place where people who STRAY can STAY
Loved both of your reqctions so far! Welcome to the Stay fandom, trust me you’re in for a ride with these kids. There’s nothing they can’t do. And considering they produce and write all of their own music, they are more than amazing. I’ve been a Stay for almost 2 years and I still can’t get enough. My suggestions are Megaverse, Freeze, Venom and Topline. Enjoy 😊
"Hoooolyyy skidoodle" lol! Thank you for the reaction to SKZ - they are the best. Also Felix (deep voice) has at least five hairstyles in this video, so they are not easy to keep up with sometimes. Watch a good guide - all the good ones are really long, but you will learn a lot and it'll really help you with their faces.
So glad you came back to them! Prior to God's Menu they were somewhat more traditional pop sounding (not totally but that song really started to change their sound and embrace the "noise" aspect. They have been called noise music by anti fans who prefer traditional kpop sounds. This song was a response to that hate. They basically said you thought we were loud before? Prepare for the arrival of the Thunderous ones. They also have a song called Cheese which takes various references people have made about them individually and pushes back against it. To answer your question on why we are called Stay. The guys said if you take the R out of Stray it becomes the reason. So Stay is the reason for Stray Kids meaning we boost them and they do everything for us. These guys are incredible. I think you would like Freeze, Megaverse and Venom though there are so many others. They also have some beautiful ballads and even a couple with like summer rock vibes. They really do span genres of music which is part of what God's Menu was about. They were basically saying they had something on their menu (list of music) that would satify everyone.
You should think about doing the long updated guide for 2024, it is long but worth watching gives an insight into the group and there members it’s so good and can be done in a couple of parts if needed. love the reaction thank you also if you like the dancing have a look at some dance practices they are another level.
Love your reactions - I would give anything to go back in time and rediscover their music all over again, so seeing you get excited is the next best thing. Having a breakdown of your thoughts on the lyrics is great, but maybe would work a little better if you switch that to the 2nd watch, so you’re not as distracted first time around? Either way, you have a new subscriber, can’t wait for more skz content!
Thank you for the reaction! And welcome to Stayville! Get ready for a wild ride. Stray Kids is my favorite group because they are a group of very talented young men. They write and produce about 99% of their own music. If you have not checked out the Maniac MV I would definitely recommend that.
If you like dubstep you should react to Freeze ;) and Miroh, it's more EDM but it has great drop 😁 enjoy this rabbit hole you can find here every genre you want ;)
I’m pretty sure other Stay have likely helped you out with many of the M/V’s meanings but in case they didn’t cover the early animation (and the overall meaning of the flames above their heads) here goes 😉: The characters in the animation are- “Taken from Wikipedia- Dokkaebi (Korean: 도깨비) are legendary creatures from Korean mythology and folklore. “ The Korean goblins they are representing usually remain in the heavens but once in a while they come down to earth ( these individuals are able to interact with humans) after a human gains their attention. Now it is said their actions can be good or bad (playful or not) for the person involved depending on the situation. In this case it’s a bad thing for their targeted human(s) who have angered them by their (aka the haters) actions against Stray Kids. It’s fun watching your reactions to them so far, looking forward to more.
I’m here for these reactions!! They are the kings of transitions with their mvs among many other things. I would recommend Lalalala, megaverse, Miroh, Venom, Maniac, S-Class, Social Path, lose my breath-completely different vibe with this one (they have a video ft. Charlie Puth which is beautiful but I love their performance when they are seated and singing themselves), Mixtape: Time out is a different vibe too but amazing, Victory Song, Domino (Dance Performance), SuperBowl (English version) but they have a Japenese video. After you have watched a bunch, you may be ready for taste and red lights but I tell you I was NOT prepared. They are incredible and I started off with them as well… and no other K-pop compares for me in my opinion. Can’t wait to see more!! They have soooooo many great songs!! Enjoy!!
Their discography is huge and varied. Megaverse is a great M/V. I suggest that you watch some of their earlier works - Any, All In, Miroh, Hellevator, Side Effects, Circus, The Sound....the list goes on and on.
I see reaction on thunderous - I subscribe 😅 this song have several versions of live performance: HERO, Christmas, 2021 KBS song festival, vampire dance practice - a lot of fun) all with changes in choreography and music. There is even a "modest" version - they perform for the government (2020 EXPO)
Thunderous NoEasy Trailer is a lot of fun Also a double reaction suggestion... Oddinary Main Trailer (3 min 30 sec) Maniac (title track of Oddinary album) Their album trailers are legit
Thuderous ❤ At the end of Gods Menu, they go out the backdoor. That's a clue. The next video Stray Kids wants you to watch is Backdoor. Which happens to be my fav song atm.🥰
They have a lot of haters because they write and produce what the haters call 'noisy music', Koreans are more used to K-pop being actual 'pop music', therefore they delight is dissing the haters in their songs and saying how they don't care, they know they're brilliant, that they're the best at what they do. 😍
This song is directed towards their haters (Korean entertainment companies). They are the rebels of Kpop, the more that haters hate the more Stray Kids keep winning.
Yess omg thank you for keep reacting to them 💜 love ur resctions btw, i would love if you can react to the stray kids 2024 long guide by chandora's world yes is long but believe me stay would love to see u reacting to the guide so you can learn even more about them and the producing team which is 3RACHA, you can do parts if that's more easy for you🖤 just wanted to let you know bang chan and felix the guy with the deep voice both of them are australians and all of them aundersatand and speak english pretty well but the most fluent ones are bang chan, felix, han and seungmin
Dirty in "Australian" means angry/annoyed. But it just occurred to me after watching Thunderous for the millionth time that poor Felix is always getting hit. First in the Bangchan in the Jyp vs yg Dance off, then by Changbin in the MV and then getting slapped by a chicken (his spirit animal...how rude) in Case 143😂😅
Funny you should mention choreography....They have dance practice videos. You would love to see them. They are very creative with a lot of it. I think you would like a few of them. And I would suggest watching a guide to Stray Kids. The good ones are LONG, but worth the watch. You get to know a lot about the individual members & the group as a whole. There are two really good ones that I can recommend. One is by TeaNoSugaReacts, and the other is by ChandorasWorld. I can give you a selection of songs that cover a wider range of sounds from SKZ. Blueprint Lonely St #LoveStay Mixtape: Time Out Cover Me (this one doesn't have a video, so you would have to watch a color coded lyric video) Item (just like Cover Me, do a color coded lyric video) The First Take: Scars (This is a live, one take recording of a Japanese song of theirs that has subtitles available) The First Take: Slump (again, like Scars, live & one take) Youtiful Freeze Easy The Tortoise and the Hare (color coded lyric video for this one as well) Chronosaurus (this one is older for the video, so the ex member is in it) Any Boxer (do the special clip for the OT8 version, and the Street version for the one with the ex member. The street videos are so fun though. They just took cameras & wandered around having fun) ....I think I'll stop there. They have so much music available to listen to. Take your time perusing it all. On a side note....If you want another few groups to listen to I'll list a song & group from a few of my fave ones. Have fun! Wonderland by Ateez Red Moon by KARD Scream by Dreamcatcher (they are a 7 member group, but one was stuck in China during the onset of Covid so there are only 6 in this song) Killin' It by P1Harmoney Egotistic by Mamamoo Sorry....Had to edit my comment for spelling mistakes I saw after posting.
Hello welcome to stayville,if you like change in a song react to maze of memories,ot8 version,it’s only a lyric video but it’s so worth it and it’s a full rap song . Love to see you again ❤
Well, here I am!! You have another subscriber 🤗 If you want to go deep into the meaning of the video I recommend you to look for Andy and Jaz's reactions. They are Koreans but live in the US, they explained it so well that the MV got a lot more interesting after hearing them 😉 Stray Kids have the most amazing drops, again, please react to Megaverse, Venom, Victory Song, Double Knot, Easy, Side Effects, Maniac, and Boxer (this one is not that popular but it´s one of my favorites, but try the performance video bc there´s a street version, and although it´s fun, you have to watch their choreo in that one). I´m very excited to watch your journey on Stray Kids ☺ See you around and keep it coming!! 😜
Hola bienvenido al famdom STAY 🫶 reaccióna a Lalalala S Class Megaverse Maniac Case 143 Venom Frezze Easy Victory song Top line Back door Double knot District 9 Ítem Charmer Hall of fame 3 RACHA Mudy water es una larga lista anotalas y poco a poco please 🙏🙏🙏
Pls can you react to a virtual kpop group called Plave, as they are made up of 5 in rral life friends who wear motion capture suits when they do theur dance practices and they also go live on youtube once a week for Pllis (fans which I'm oneboff since they debuted) an have amazing voices and personalities. Also they beat the likes of BiBi and Le Sserefim to win their first ever award at music in the bank (a korean kusic award show)
The woodcutter saying means a wood cutter cuts dead wood (useless stuff) and there is nothing useless about their music. Telling the haters to go home there is nothing for them here.

Trying out a new style of reaction based on your request! Comment with the most likes will be reacted to next!!
Oh you need Red Lights... and Taste
Maniac, case 143
FREEZE, easy
I like the longer format, there's so much to take in that it makes sense to go thru once to enjoy the video, the choreo and effects, transitions and imagery then separately to make sense of the lyrics and message. Learning the lore and following the storyline is a good idea too and a lot of Stay enjoy that kind of journey, plus ask for some recs for which guide is best right now, then there's so much content that isn't music videos, you have a lot of options😂
@@TemisCin He's not ready for Red Lights and Taste 😁
Freeze, Megaverse, Venom and Topline...absolutely! Prepare to expand your playlist!
The thing I find with reactors who pick Stray Kids as their first boy group to react to, it's really hard to react to other boy groups because Stray Kids are so damn addictive 😍😍 They are their own genre 😍
😂😭oof lmao
It's not only reactors ... SKZ basically ruined me for any other k-pop boy group ^^
Thank you for reacting! THUNDEROUS is such a fun clap back song to everyone who complained they only make noise music, and they said oh you thought that was loud .... HA we'll be absolutely thunderous. I've always taken the whole woodcutter thing to mean like "hey you hater, who's just hating to hate, get outta here, there's nothing to hate on"
I figured as much, awesome song and I like the message behind it aha

There is NO other group out that can match Stray Kids energy, PERIOD.
Sheeeesh

im ready for your journey, I think we are gone to like it .thank u
You’re every welcome
I recommend some of their mvs for ya : LALALALA, S-Class, Megaverse , topline, case 143, freeze, back door, ... There is a lot man 😂
Great reaction, baby STAY. :-) It's hard to say watch this or that .... they are all so good. But, if I have to: Hellevator, District 9, Back Door, S-Class, Venom, Topline, Lonely Street. No order there and there are way too many others. Also, check out their dance practices. AMAZING!
Hiiiiiii🎉🎉 só glad to see you reacting to them again ☺️☺️☺️ skz really is from a different bread,
We are STAYS (explained by the boys) that since they are Stray Kids, if you remove the "r" from Stray =Stay , with "r" being the meaning for Stray Kids, we get all that together and conclude with the ending frase of the MVs
"Stray Kids all around the world, you make stray kids stay"
I think it's a giver that "megaverse" is something that we think you will like a lot, but for further full English songs, they also have "super bowl" (originally an full English song, but has an japanese version with music video, I would recommend the full English)
Tip: #skz os also an interesting tag to include in the videos
In 2022 this song represented the culture of Korea at the world EXPO in Dubai in front of the heads of many countries of the world. The song has many elements of traditional Korean music.

The "I'm not sorry we're dirty" is just saying they don't care if they do their oen thing. Though you gotta love how the Australians (Bang Chan and Felix) pronounce 'I'm dirty'. 😅
Ikr!
In Australia "I'm dirty" mostly means I'm ticked off, mad, annoyed etc 🇦🇺🦘🐨
@suefraser3611 ohhh!
Also, I'm dirty refers to how the idol industry has such a clean image and Stray Kids don't care.
@@suefraser3611 I did not know that! That just adds to it. Knowing them, the multiple meanings were intentional.
If you like their choreo, I would suggest checking out some of their dance practices too. Stray kids are on another level all around! The "chefs kiss" guy is Hyunjin (and I agree! 😂). His dances to when the parties over, play with fire, and motley crew are mind-blowing! My favorites from them that you haven't reacted to yet are easy, circus, top line, and venom. Although you can't go wrong with any of their songs. Ooooooo, also red lights! That one is a collab with just Hyunjin and Chan.
Fandom name comes from dropping the R from Stray and , also, because they are saying that the fans are what gives them a career.. a reason to be. The end of every mv is posted their catch phrase… “Stray kids everywhere all around the world you make Stray Kids stay”
SKZ are the founders of the third type of K-Pop called Mala-Tang (Mala-Taste) after the release of the hit "God's menu". Before SKZ, there were two main directions in K-Pop: Sweet and Salty. "Mala" means something like "pleasant spice", "Tang" literally means "soup". In some SKZ songs, you can count up to 8 different musical genres. That's why they often talk about their music as delicious meal. (Good meal is a kind of cult in Korea)
STAY on deck.
Enjoyed your reaction.
Stray kids give clues throughout or toward end of their Music Videos. Thunderous clues. The Thunderous one in on Thunderous Book page in Hyunjin hands. Thunderous have 3 hairstyles. Thunderous control Thunder. Actually there's Merch with the Thunderous One on Merch Felix. Thunderous T-shirts, hats, mugs, books, photos, dolls, animals, etc.
Stray Kids, the one and only. When they released God's Menu it was a big hit, and SKZ unique sound was recognized as its own genre, Mala Taste, named after a popular Chinese spicy soup, Malatang. But some people tried to downplay it by saying that it was just "noise" music. So, Thunderous was their response; if you think that was loud, let me show you how good really loud sounds. They even incorporated traditional Korean musical instruments just to make a point. The name of the album was NoEasy (noisy), and they also added another song, Cheese, that addresses some of the negative comments they received.
Because they write their own music, a lot of their lyrics reflect what is on their minds and their experiences. They have songs about the mixed feelings of becoming adults and have tackled subjects like depression. A lot of their songs are very inspirational, about being yourself, not giving up, and not letting others influence you.
But though a lot of SKZ's music is their inimitable energetic signature sound, their discography is very extensive, and it also includes beautiful ballads. They don't limit themselves to any particular style of music. They are always saying how much they haven't done, and how much more they want to try. During a recent interview (with kittens) I.N (the youngest) very specifically said he wants to try something sexy. LOL I can't wait!
Given your intro and comments, I would suggest "Freeze" and "Megaverse", though you'd probably be really surprised by just how amazing they were from the start. "Hellevator" was their pre-debut song, and "District 9" their debut song.
I loved the reaction to Thunderous. I love watching people discovering these awesome guys. Stray Kids have a huge discography of music that I’m sure you are going to enjoy. Keep reacting to Stray Kids and I’ll definitely keep watching. Their new mini album is going to be released 19 July 2024. So excited for “ATE”. ❤️🔥Thanks again for the reactions 🫶🏻
I like when reactors watch through twice for lyrics and visuals. For me, I think it works better to watch through first just focusing on the music and video, and then go back for the lyrics to understand better.
There will be a lot of idioms, metaphors, and turns of phrase that just don't translate well if you don't have a background in Korean, either the language or culture. It's just something we must out on, sadly. There are people who go through their lyrics and give the cultural and linguistic context we don't have. Stray Kids use a LOT of wordplay, they're very clever. Often that wordplay involves both English and Korean in tandem.
I look forward to watching you discover Stray Kids and other kpop.
ah, you like a good beat drop?!?! Welcome to your new home!
SKZ are chefs kiss
S-class megaverse lalalala please ❤
15:10 Lee Felix (👹💀voice- 🐥☀️personality, Aussie) in free time louis vuitton ambassador - even was on the catwalk.
15:30 Hyunjin - (🔥on stage- Drama Queen in live 😅) in free time Versace global ambassador (Versace Prince - Donatella ptesented him with 👑😅)
Actually they both like brothers/ soulmates/best friends
16:03 - Bang Chan - Lider! Best Lider! He was the one who chose all the members (that’s nearly impossible in k-pop industry) and he is behind 99.9 % of their beats 🤭
Edit: yes they are the thunderous ones. Stray Kids is often called loud or noisy. They named one of their albums Noisy as a clap-back and this song is 1000% a diss track to their haters lol.
Welcome to STAY! We are called STAY because it's a place where people who STRAY can STAY
up
Thunderous has become one of my favorite videos. It's good that you liked it.
Loved both of your reqctions so far! Welcome to the Stay fandom, trust me you’re in for a ride with these kids. There’s nothing they can’t do. And considering they produce and write all of their own music, they are more than amazing.
I’ve been a Stay for almost 2 years and I still can’t get enough.
My suggestions are Megaverse, Freeze, Venom and Topline.
Enjoy 😊
Heard!
"Hoooolyyy skidoodle" lol! Thank you for the reaction to SKZ - they are the best. Also Felix (deep voice) has at least five hairstyles in this video, so they are not easy to keep up with sometimes. Watch a good guide - all the good ones are really long, but you will learn a lot and it'll really help you with their faces.
Heard!
So glad you came back to them! Prior to God's Menu they were somewhat more traditional pop sounding (not totally but that song really started to change their sound and embrace the "noise" aspect. They have been called noise music by anti fans who prefer traditional kpop sounds. This song was a response to that hate. They basically said you thought we were loud before? Prepare for the arrival of the Thunderous ones. They also have a song called Cheese which takes various references people have made about them individually and pushes back against it.
To answer your question on why we are called Stay. The guys said if you take the R out of Stray it becomes the reason. So Stay is the reason for Stray Kids meaning we boost them and they do everything for us. These guys are incredible.
I think you would like Freeze, Megaverse and Venom though there are so many others. They also have some beautiful ballads and even a couple with like summer rock vibes. They really do span genres of music which is part of what God's Menu was about. They were basically saying they had something on their menu (list of music) that would satify everyone.
You should think about doing the long updated guide for 2024, it is long but worth watching gives an insight into the group and there members it’s so good and can be done in a couple of parts if needed. love the reaction thank you also if you like the dancing have a look at some dance practices they are another level.
They are portraying the Dokkaebi which are Korean Goblins that mess with evil people.
Love your reactions - I would give anything to go back in time and rediscover their music all over again, so seeing you get excited is the next best thing.
Having a breakdown of your thoughts on the lyrics is great, but maybe would work a little better if you switch that to the 2nd watch, so you’re not as distracted first time around? Either way, you have a new subscriber, can’t wait for more skz content!
Thank you for the reaction! And welcome to Stayville! Get ready for a wild ride. Stray Kids is my favorite group because they are a group of very talented young men. They write and produce about 99% of their own music. If you have not checked out the Maniac MV I would definitely recommend that.
You should react to 'Back Door', that song came after 'God's Menu' and was hinted at at the end of the MV 😉
please react to megaverse ❤
😶👀
@@xKuRupTx
MEGAVERS, Clue left toward end of Music Video.
If you like dubstep you should react to Freeze ;) and Miroh, it's more EDM but it has great drop 😁 enjoy this rabbit hole you can find here every genre you want ;)
Ouu word
I their use of traditional instruments, buildings and clothing in this MV as if to say “You think our “noise” isn’t part of our culture and tradition”
I’m pretty sure other Stay have likely helped you out with many of the M/V’s meanings but in case they didn’t cover the early animation (and the overall meaning of the flames above their heads) here goes 😉:
The characters in the animation are-
“Taken from Wikipedia-
Dokkaebi (Korean: 도깨비) are legendary creatures from Korean mythology and folklore. “
The Korean goblins they are representing usually remain in the heavens but once in a while they come down to earth ( these individuals are able to interact with humans) after a human gains their attention. Now it is said their actions can be good or bad (playful or not) for the person involved depending on the situation.
In this case it’s a bad thing for their targeted human(s) who have angered them by their (aka the haters) actions against Stray Kids.
It’s fun watching your reactions to them so far, looking forward to more.
Tyty
Thunderous🌩️
Onggg
I’m here for these reactions!! They are the kings of transitions with their mvs among many other things. I would recommend Lalalala, megaverse, Miroh, Venom, Maniac, S-Class, Social Path, lose my breath-completely different vibe with this one (they have a video ft. Charlie Puth which is beautiful but I love their performance when they are seated and singing themselves), Mixtape: Time out is a different vibe too but amazing, Victory Song, Domino (Dance Performance), SuperBowl (English version) but they have a Japenese video. After you have watched a bunch, you may be ready for taste and red lights but I tell you I was NOT prepared. They are incredible and I started off with them as well… and no other K-pop compares for me in my opinion. Can’t wait to see more!! They have soooooo many great songs!! Enjoy!!
Their discography is huge and varied. Megaverse is a great M/V. I suggest that you watch some of their earlier works - Any, All In, Miroh, Hellevator, Side Effects, Circus, The Sound....the list goes on and on.
Yup I'm here for that we got a baby stay 😂, get ur ass ready for their upcoming album "Ate"
I see reaction on thunderous - I subscribe 😅 this song have several versions of live performance: HERO, Christmas, 2021 KBS song festival, vampire dance practice - a lot of fun) all with changes in choreography and music. There is even a "modest" version - they perform for the government (2020 EXPO)
Thunderous NoEasy Trailer is a lot of fun
Also a double reaction suggestion...
Oddinary Main Trailer (3 min 30 sec)
Maniac (title track of Oddinary album)
Their album trailers are legit
Thunderous ❤
Thuderous ❤ At the end of Gods Menu, they go out the backdoor. That's a clue. The next video Stray Kids wants you to watch is Backdoor. Which happens to be my fav song atm.🥰
React to Maniac, Easy, S-Class, Back Door, Levanter, Freeze, The View, Time Out, Superboard
Freeze up next!
They have a lot of haters because they write and produce what the haters call 'noisy music', Koreans are more used to K-pop being actual 'pop music', therefore they delight is dissing the haters in their songs and saying how they don't care, they know they're brilliant, that they're the best at what they do. 😍
Thanks for the Stray Kids reaction! You said you like a good beat drop. I suggest Megaverse and an older song Miroh.
This song is directed towards their haters (Korean entertainment companies). They are the rebels of Kpop, the more that haters hate the more Stray Kids keep winning.
7:55 Hyunjin (Rapper-Main dancer-Visual)
15:02 Felix(Yongbok) (Rapper-Main dancer-Visual)
Yess omg thank you for keep reacting to them 💜 love ur resctions btw, i would love if you can react to the stray kids 2024 long guide by chandora's world yes is long but believe me stay would love to see u reacting to the guide so you can learn even more about them and the producing team which is 3RACHA, you can do parts if that's more easy for you🖤 just wanted to let you know bang chan and felix the guy with the deep voice both of them are australians and all of them aundersatand and speak english pretty well but the most fluent ones are bang chan, felix, han and seungmin
Felix & Bang chan are Australian, and there saying "I'm dirty" means I'm pissed or angry.
Dirty in "Australian" means angry/annoyed.
But it just occurred to me after watching Thunderous for the millionth time that poor Felix is always getting hit.
First in the Bangchan in the Jyp vs yg Dance off, then by Changbin in the MV and then getting slapped by a chicken (his spirit animal...how rude) in Case 143😂😅
😭😂
Funny you should mention choreography....They have dance practice videos. You would love to see them. They are very creative with a lot of it. I think you would like a few of them.
And I would suggest watching a guide to Stray Kids. The good ones are LONG, but worth the watch. You get to know a lot about the individual members & the group as a whole. There are two really good ones that I can recommend. One is by TeaNoSugaReacts, and the other is by ChandorasWorld.
I can give you a selection of songs that cover a wider range of sounds from SKZ.
Blueprint
Lonely St
#LoveStay
Mixtape: Time Out
Cover Me (this one doesn't have a video, so you would have to watch a color coded lyric video)
Item (just like Cover Me, do a color coded lyric video)
The First Take: Scars (This is a live, one take recording of a Japanese song of theirs that has subtitles available)
The First Take: Slump (again, like Scars, live & one take)
Youtiful
Freeze
Easy
The Tortoise and the Hare (color coded lyric video for this one as well)
Chronosaurus (this one is older for the video, so the ex member is in it)
Any
Boxer (do the special clip for the OT8 version, and the Street version for the one with the ex member. The street videos are so fun though. They just took cameras & wandered around having fun)
....I think I'll stop there. They have so much music available to listen to. Take your time perusing it all.
On a side note....If you want another few groups to listen to I'll list a song & group from a few of my fave ones. Have fun!
Wonderland by Ateez
Red Moon by KARD
Scream by Dreamcatcher (they are a 7 member group, but one was stuck in China during the onset of Covid so there are only 6 in this song)
Killin' It by P1Harmoney
Egotistic by Mamamoo
Sorry....Had to edit my comment for spelling mistakes I saw after posting.
Hello welcome to stayville,if you like change in a song react to maze of memories,ot8 version,it’s only a lyric video but it’s so worth it and it’s a full rap song . Love to see you again ❤
Check out #lovestay by stray kids
might have to
@@xKuRupTx its for the fans
Well, here I am!! You have another subscriber 🤗 If you want to go deep into the meaning of the video I recommend you to look for Andy and Jaz's reactions. They are Koreans but live in the US, they explained it so well that the MV got a lot more interesting after hearing them 😉 Stray Kids have the most amazing drops, again, please react to Megaverse, Venom, Victory Song, Double Knot, Easy, Side Effects, Maniac, and Boxer (this one is not that popular but it´s one of my favorites, but try the performance video bc there´s a street version, and although it´s fun, you have to watch their choreo in that one). I´m very excited to watch your journey on Stray Kids ☺ See you around and keep it coming!! 😜
Ty!
If you pause on the manga, its them 😁

If you like dubstep react to FREEZE 😌😏
The woodcutter saying means a wood cutter cuts dead wood (useless stuff) and there is nothing useless about their music. Telling the haters to go home there is nothing for them here.
15:40 That human is Hyunjin 😅
Chefs kiss 🤌🏻
Can you do Back Door?
