Suju is the 1st kpop group to advance into the latin market, 1st kpop group to have a full tour there, and to release music targeted to the specific market, 1st to chart in Latin music charts with a Latin song. They have a huge fandom in Latin America. Thus the many releases with Latin flair and with latin artists. Lo siento with Leslie Grace, one more time with REIK, Ahoras te puedes marchar(a remake of Luis Miguel song ), Animals...
@@mywish3589 I think that "I Think I" has a rhumba rhythm, which is older than the recent raggaeton vogue and is inspired by Cuba, which is Carribean and not Latin.
@@aligensa Reggaeton also has an African influence, but the spanish arrived in Cuba before the Africans, so their language makes it a latino country as well as their music.
Super Junior's "One More Time (Otra Vez)" came out in October 2018. This song has a Reggaeton beat, with a Korean and Spanish collaboration mix. Fun fact: Although it looks like they filmed this MV in Las Vegas, they were actually in Macao China, which is kind of like the Las Vegas of China, and it was filmed at the MGM Resort there. There were 8 SuJu members + 3 Reik members in this MV. You might have noticed you didn't see Heechul sing or dance. He was recovering from some health issues at this time that prevented him from singing or rapping in this song, so that is why you saw him sitting in the chair and only killing us with his looks this time. LOL At this point the oldest members Leeteuk and Heechul were 34 and Ryeowook, one of the maknaes of the group, was 31. This MV was actually the first MV that Ryeowook was in after being released from his military service .And I believe it was Ryeowook that did the ad lib in the song. Reik is a pop-rock band from Mexico, which is a trio that is made up of the singer you heard with the Spanish lines, and the two guitar players you saw in the beginning as they walked down the hall together. (Super Junior entered from one direction and Reik entered from the other direction.) Yeah, Super Junior is once again paving the way for Kpop in a new market. They decided to take their sound and flavor to Latin America in an attempt to reach their Hispanic fans all over the world, as well as all their other fans. Latin America is pretty much an untapped market for Kpop, and, true to form, Super Junior is never afraid to experiment with their sound and style and to find a way to make amazing music that's new and different.This was a new direction for Kpop and it's benefiting everyone. Not only does collaborating with artists like Reik and Leslie Grace, who are famous in Latin America, help Super Junior break into that market, but Super Junior is helping the people they colab with reach a wider worldwide audience. Super Junior is actually one of the most popular Kpop artists in Latin America and they have a really big Hispanic fandom. If you pay attention to the comments on most of Super Junior's content these days you will see that there are actually more comments in Spanish then in almost any other language, even Korean. If you like their Latin vibe, check out "I Think I" and "Animals", or "Ahora Te Puedes Marchar", which is a remake/parody of a famous Spanish song by Luis Miguel.
There are two versions of One More Time, the Korean one which is the one you've read the lyrics to, and the Latin one where I think Reik sings like he's the other person Super Junior is falling in love with, again. Could you react to The Melody next time please? They don't dance in the MV but the lyrics for this song were written by two of the members to celebrate the group's 15th anniversary.
Falling in love with the guys from Reik? Thanks for pointing that out, hadn't noticed it, but that's hilarious ... and very SuJu. Always found the visual contrast amusing between the macho and almost scruffy looking guys of Reik next to our polished, porcelain "flower boy" idols. :)
@@aligensa I could be wrong but it's the conclusion I came to after reading the lyrics of both versions 2 years ago. I would not say that it is a relationship between men, or that one of the two groups plays the role of the woman, or which of the two is the woman, because that can be left to the interpretation of the listener. But as you say, it's very SuJu, so maybe I'm not wrong after all 😁
@@mywish3589 There's a video of Kyuhyun solo, I forget which, which uses an actor for the male partner in the love story instead of himself, but he's also shown singing, so you can read it as a relationship between the men or a love triangle. In the early days they actually did even more explicitly gay stuff than they do now, so they definitely know what they are doing, they just always keep it open enough to interpretation not to offend anyone who doesn't like it.
@@aligensa yes. I remember that TH-cam recommended Super Junior videos with clips related to that topic. That was almost three years ago, around the time I started getting to know the group. Could you tell me what song Kyuhyun sang with the other man, if you ever remember which one? Please Edit: I just realized that the actor doesn't sing 😆
For suju I recommend Devil for EXO Universe ( a meaningful ballad with powerful vocals) and Lucky One ( funky and fun but with heavy Worldbuilding of the exo Universe in the video)
With "dance vibe beats" you probably mean reggaeton, which became a global craze after "Despacito". "Mamacita" was a kind of fun nod to their Latin fans, but SuJu really made Latin cross-over K-Pop a serious sub-genre with "Lo Siento" and "One More Time".
It'd be great if you could also check out their live performances esp from their concerts (called super shows) and any variety theyre in. They sound even better live and theyre always funny :)
They have quite a few songs with a Latin flavor. I Think I and Animals are some. Ahora Te Puedes Marchar is a Spanish cover they did fully in Spanish. Sorry Sorry Answer is still the ultimate vocal flex of a song though. Not Latin vibes but would be my go to recommendation. And of course, thank you for your reaction to Super Junior!
I have to say it's a mystery to me how you can keep reading bad translations of sexual innuendo out loud with a straight face. Especially SuJu can get pretty smutty for K-Pop standards. Your stoicism is almost heroic. :)
Well, I do work as an novel editor in "real life", and most of what I edit is erotic fiction these days, so trust me when I say that sexual innuendo stopped fazing me years ago. It's just another day at the office.
@@kpopauntie Sounds fascinating. :) Im not easily shocked either, Im just extremely intrigued by the ingenuity of SuJu's innuendos, both verbally and visually, which manages to both entertain people who have naughty thoughts while keeping it implicit enough not to offend the mainstream. Classical Hollywood did that. Most people in more open minded societies nowadays have lost their antenna for that, because almost everything is explicit.
OMG OMG OMG YES! Now you need to check out "ahora te puedes marchar" it is a cover of a very popular song from Luis Miguel you are going to have so much fun with the video
Actually I didn't recommend this song to you because i thought it wasn't your type. Maybe you should listen to super junior d&e zero I personally really really like this song. I really enjoy your reaction ❤
Never heard this before...liked it a lot. Glad you reacted to it. Still hoping you will do more kpop covers soon! Always appreciate the time you take to do these reactions!

Also "I Think I" wich I love and contrary to most I prefer the MV for the Korean version

@@aligensa you are right that rumba is older than reggaeton but it is still latino music created in the past and in Cuba they speak Spanish ☺️
@@mywish3589 But the Caribbean has more African influence than Latin America, it's different, even though both were later influenced by Spain.

Thank you for the great comment and for the recommendations!
I would recommend 2 MVs in one go as they are connected... start with "This is Love" then "evanesce" ... you will love both the vocals and the MVs
Thank you for the recommendations!

Thank you! I'm hoping to watch Universe tomorrow.

I'll be happy to start checking out some of SuJu's live performances.

@@aligensa Subtle innuendo really is a lost art. You're right, the explicit nature takes half the fun out of it.

Thank you for the recommendation! I look forward to ahora te puedes marchar.
