Just to let you know, 'Shhh' and 'Bad News' both have stories to them. The members solos (Sugarcoat, Countdown, Kitty Cat, and Play Love Games in that order), and Bye My Neverland are prequels to the title track Shhh. The beginning shot of Shhh is even taken from the ending shot of Bye My Neverland. Nobody Knows is a follow-up to Bad News and basically explains why the group is being rebellious in the MV.
Their storylines are not stupid complex - they start and end in their eras. So debut era (solo mvs + bye my neverland + shhh) is one storyline, bad news + nobody knows is another. on midas touch they def decided to put more money on the aesthetics of the mv so the story isn't as deep but damn did they deliver .....
Oh no! You should watch them in ORDER Specially the debut so you will gets everything 😭 this is like their journey the SHHH is the final story you should start to NATTY - SUGAR COAT MV BELLE - COUNTDOWN MV JULIE - KITTY CAT MV HANEUL - PLAY LOVE GAMES MV KISS OF LIFE - BYE MY NEVER LAND MV AND THEN LAST IS SHHH MV and also bad news have continuation which is the NOBODY KNOWS MV AND ALSO THE LYRICS IN MIDAS TOUCH USE THEIR OWN SOLO SONGS AS REFERENCE IN BRIDGE
Not that you have to react to them like this but just in case you did want to see the full storyline here’s the order: All of the members solo songs go first (doesn’t really matter what order imo but you could go by release date) and then after that there’s a group song called “Goodbye My Neverland”, and lastly there’s “Shhh”. For the Bad News storyline it was “Bad News” first and then “Nobody Knows” would be next!! Hope this helps:)))
Midas Touch making you think just all 2000s pop was the entire goal. All the girls are 2000s pop & rnb fans and drew inspiration, referenced, and even lyrically added stuff relating to it for this song
Midas Touch is giving Christina Aguilera singing the Wizards of Waverly Place theme song. I love Kiss Of Life, they are super talented no doubt! Belle basically follows Ariana Grande as her vocal role model. She said she wanted to sing like Ariana so i bet she has been mimicking her for years, plus she truly loves singing lmao there's no interview or show where she doesn't start singing or humming out of nowhere or remembering songs out of random words haha These girls are the first group i stan after Dreamcatcher, that says a lot lmaooo
Thank you for reacting to them. They are so underrated! They are my favorite rookie girl group for last year & this year. In the Shh video, you got the first two girls correct, Belle in pink & Natty with the short fluffy blue skirt. However, the last two you mixed up. The one in the hat was Julie & Haneul was the one in blue.
the moment you mentioned they're like mamamoo, i was like YEEESS. they're like mothers and daughters to me as well. if you're going to check out their other MVs, i suggest you to check in order bcz the storyline are connected. their b-sides are also superior anyway. i personally loving Nobody Knows and Nothing out of all.
For their debut mini, the four solo MVs + Bye My Neverland + Shhh combined to tell a story, so the performance clip at the end of Shhh were used while rolling credits like a movie. It was brilliant because the combination of videos helped with learning each of their names/faces, showed a bit of their skill sets/personalities, left a distinct impression and set their foundation well.
Kiof girls are extremely talented please check out more from them !! They are currently striving to become fully self produced & have participated in writing, composing & choreography. Some info about them, Belle, 20yo is the main vocal she is korean from Seattle, she used to be a composer/songwriter who’s written for Miyeon, Le sserafim, Kid milli & some others. She also worked with SM providing the vocals on marks song child. Shes known as belliana grande by knetz. Natty,22yo is the main dancer she is Thai she has been in the industry for 10-11 years starting with sm training with red velvet shortly then on sixteen then idol school then she went solo & finally debuted with kiof. Julie 24yo is the main rapper, leader, lead dancer she is korean from Hawaii she was a former TBL & swing trainee. Haneul 19yo is korean she is the all rounder maknae she trained for a year & was chosen as the last member by the other girls. Also their creative director is Lee Haein a former idol who was friends with Natty & trained on idol school with her she has youtube where she talks about some of the behind stuff.
shhh is about self expression hence why they all have their own solos before they release shhh to showcase their difference in artistry. bad news takes a jab on people talking negatively about someone on the internet without knowing the real context which is followed by nobody knows (b-side) where it gives a perspective of why the girls did what they did in the bad news video because nobody knows the truth except themselves.
I am so obsessed with KIOF! One of the best vocal (and overall tbh) groups of 5th gen for me. They just kill it, every time, and give us something new and different from the rest of KPOP with flawless vocals and excellent conceptual execution every comeback. Legit never ulted a group so fast before! I also don't even know who my bias is, they're all too good ❤
The voice whose flow you liked in the beginning is Julie (the brown haired rapper/leader) while the blonde girl you pointed out for being gorgeous and having "something" in Shhh is indeed Belle (famous main vocal)
natty was a former jyp trainee and almost debuted with both twice and fromis9!! she was on both survival shows sixteen and idol school that formed them. julie is a former yg trainee and trained with babymonster. belle is an experienced songwriter having written for groups like lesserafim and purplekiss. haneul was just an overall talented trainee lol
Yes, Kiss Of Life! Nobody Knows goes with Bad News so I hope you will check that out too when you can. All their music is amazing, there isn't much yet but what is there is great!
Also, natty in the black hair (no hat) and white badysuit shirt in shhh at the dance part at the end is thai and she was in sixteen which created twice
they sampled a few 2000/2010s tracks for "shhh" and paid homage with a few borrowed melodies during the song as well. It was a very well-done tribute to that era without being overly pastiche or obvious. now with the release of Midas Touch, we can tell that whatever producer(s) they're using have a very big reverence for that era of music (and not just the trendy Y2K wave from last year). Also, outside of this group's great music and videos and basic personalities, i don't follow this group's variety content too closely- not because I don't love them, i just don't have time for all of the content kpop offers these days. That being said, its quite clear that Belle (the blond you noticed a bunch of times) must count Ariana as her main vocal influence. She uses Ariana licks, runs and inflections ALL the time (but not overdone in an annoying way, just a noticeable way).
Natty (black hair with bangs) is the lead vocalist, rapper and main dancer. Natty was supposed to be on Twice, but she didn't make it 'cause she was too young (she's thai) Julie (black or brown curly hair) as the oldest, she's the leader of the group and also main rapper. she can sing too, and her dancing skills are also really good, she's the second best dancer. she was a trainee on the black label (YG sub company). Julie's swag and charisma are captivating. if I had to choose a center member, I would definitely choose her (and she's american) Belle (blonde hair/red hair on bad news MV) is the main vocalist and also a song writer, she writed some songs by famous artists and groups. she's knowing as "korean Ariana Grande" and her voice is amazing (she's korean) Haneul (blonde hair with cat eyes) is the maknae and lead vocalist of the group. Haneul can also write songs and she's a good dancer as well (she's korean)
Yay!!! Honestly I've been wanting to ask you to react to them so bad bc I just knew you'd like them so I'm so glad you finally did! I hope you'll also watch the rest of their MVs like other people have already said and also check out some of their live performances
Midas's indeed touch everything to gold, but they're also a medusa. That's why all the representation in the music is full of snakes and stones, it's reflected in their lyrics like "toxic" or "dangerous". So all their looks are just stunning (stone-ing) that literally stun all the men who looked at them, but their touch got them going (if you know what I meant) just like the end scene when they touch the boy and turn him back from getting petrified
I recently got into Kiss of Life right after Midas Touch dropped and I'm so glad I went through their discography cause they're one of my top favs now!
Wait until you discover Babymonster! It’s crazy that there are 5 outstanding vocalists in one group 😭 The singing , rapping and dancing skills are out of the chart 🔥🔥🔥
You have to watch nobody know before bad news, and check out their solo to know why ssst mv turn out like that, snd they new song midas touch have reveral to their solo mv
I was NOT expecting an email my heart reference of all things clicking into this video 😂 personally they remind me of the Cheetah Girls and Wizards of Waverley place sounds.
love these girls fr, the songs are all bops LMFAOOOOOOOOO the Britney comment YES, my icon as a little girl but yes. this reminded of of Britney sure, but also Christina, a bit of Gwen Stefani ( in terms of visuals also), even the Pussycat dolls (especially with that banner behind them)
25:15 opening Mida’s Touch albums while watching this was a bad idea, I got a 360 degrees attack from the video, the looks, the voices and the certified genius that Kiss Of Life albums are and I’m getting emotional. This is awesome. The damn albums has messages from the members hidden under a dark heart that gets revealed if it warms up. 😭 BTW: I got a whole bunch of Haneul ❤🔥
Although their videos should ideally be watched in order of release, you did watch oldest to newest title tracks here so that's good😅 You have great observations so I think it would be fun to see what you catch when you watch the other MVs in order🙂 Thank you for reacting to Kiss of Life!
Off topic but have you heard Britney's vocals before her becoming famous? So much potential and talent!! Def check out some compilation of her childhood and younger days' singing
I always watch your reaction videos and it's so good. I just want to suggest to go check out the other P-Pop group called ALAMAT and do reacto to their performance in Wish 107.5 with their song SAY U LOVE ME. and also their MAHARANI music video.. PLEASSSSE. It was so beautiful

Nobody Knows is a follow-up to Bad News and basically explains why the group is being rebellious in the MV.
7:54 your right that sound so like ariana grande.It's Belle who do the runs and riff and people call her "korean ariana grande".
Kiss of Life said that they were inspired by Britney Spears, BoA and Lee Hyori for the Midas Touch concept and sound, that's why it sounds so good ♥️
They Do So Good
I was LITERALLY waiting for your reaction to this group. Thank you. They`re so talented!
The vocals in this group is ridiculous
I feel like you're gonna fall in love with Nobody Knows and Nothing
Their storylines are not stupid complex - they start and end in their eras. So debut era (solo mvs + bye my neverland + shhh) is one storyline, bad news + nobody knows is another. on midas touch they def decided to put more money on the aesthetics of the mv so the story isn't as deep but damn did they deliver .....
Stand talented Stand mamamoo , Red velvet and Kiss of life !!! 🤍
If you're talking about vocals Dreamcatcher needs to be part of the conversation as well.
@@SirAustin ok wait austin i need to check out their music now. 🤩
Oh no! You should watch them in ORDER Specially the debut so you will gets everything 😭 this is like their journey the SHHH is the final story you should start to
NATTY - SUGAR COAT MV
BELLE - COUNTDOWN MV
JULIE - KITTY CAT MV
HANEUL - PLAY LOVE GAMES MV
KISS OF LIFE - BYE MY NEVER LAND MV
AND THEN LAST IS SHHH MV
and also bad news have continuation which is the NOBODY KNOWS MV
AND ALSO THE LYRICS IN MIDAS TOUCH USE THEIR OWN SOLO SONGS AS REFERENCE IN BRIDGE
omg i literally never payed attention to them referencing their solo songs!!😭
interesting

You must hear they b-side "nothing" It's full English

Kiss of Life really wowed me this year, so impressed with their vocals and performances, they r crazy talented.
I love Kiss of Life!!!
They are ICONIC ❤
I have a feeling you’re really going to love Belle, her vocals are so good 😭
Oooh I’ve been listening to KIOF nonstop lately! I’m obsessed with their bside Nothing. Such a talented group 💯❤️
they sampled a few 2000/2010s tracks for "shhh" and paid homage with a few borrowed melodies during the song as well.

Definitely recommend their recording behinds 💯
very talented girls, i cant wait for you to react to the rest of their songs!! ❤❤ i love your input on vocal prowess as usual
Natty (black hair with bangs) is the lead vocalist, rapper and main dancer. Natty was supposed to be on Twice, but she didn't make it 'cause she was too young (she's thai)
Julie (black or brown curly hair) as the oldest, she's the leader of the group and also main rapper. she can sing too, and her dancing skills are also really good, she's the second best dancer. she was a trainee on the black label (YG sub company). Julie's swag and charisma are captivating. if I had to choose a center member, I would definitely choose her (and she's american)
Belle (blonde hair/red hair on bad news MV) is the main vocalist and also a song writer, she writed some songs by famous artists and groups. she's knowing as "korean Ariana Grande" and her voice is amazing (she's korean)
Haneul (blonde hair with cat eyes) is the maknae and lead vocalist of the group. Haneul can also write songs and she's a good dancer as well (she's korean)
Yay!!! Honestly I've been wanting to ask you to react to them so bad bc I just knew you'd like them so I'm so glad you finally did! I hope you'll also watch the rest of their MVs like other people have already said and also check out some of their live performances

Natty was in "Sixteen" - survival show where twice was formed. Momo and natty quite had a beef as they both are amazing dancers
KISS OF LIFE is top-tier. I love their music. I love their singing, dancing and rapping. Their B-SIDES are amazing.
Hi! I’m so excited for this! They are so good☺️☺️
