As an avid fan of EXO, I can say the only 4th gen boy group that can fill that gap of musicality in songs these days is CIX. I love them and I do hope they get more recognition cus their songs are really good, it feels like their discography prioritizes music for the ears before dance/performance visually.
Right?! EXO is my favorite kpop group and always have been and when CIX came out with Hello Stranger Chap 1, i fell in love, especially with "What you wanted" still one of my fave song from them
OMG YES CIX!! A group that deserves way more recognition. "Movie Star" was an insane debut, "Jungle" is a masterpiece (both the song and the video), "Cinema" is beautiful and "Wave" is incredible. CIX always has hits and their b-sides are top tier. Love that you were able to check them out! Been loving every video in this season of the First Look series and sad it's almost over. Thank you for all these amazing videos and take a nice long rest once this over, you more than deserve it!
Cix jungle is based on the rings of hell, each member is in a different hell according to the sin they committed. And Cix concept deals with school bullying and struggles, 38:13 yonghee committed suicide which then after it carried you to jungle where each of them are in hell. seen before numb Era they released video that are on their concept that shows what happened.The name of the film is 'hello, strange place story film each episode is based on each member experience.( also every b-side is a bop my favorite are move my body, here for you(fully English song), bad dream, Everything and change me. Literally they have no bad song not one every on you can listen to on repeat:)
Wow what another surprise!! Cinema is literally a breath of fresh air omg I feel so happy listening to cinema and I'm glad you finally listened to it! Movie star and jungle are iconic! And wave is so catchy! CIX needs more recognition, their vocals, rapping and dancing as well as visuals are out of this world!!
without lying cix has one of the best discographies in the industry, each album is aoty material as always, cix is that group that does not fail. y'all have to get them out of the nugudom NOW!! random fact: cix has the same producers as exo, it is not surprising that they are the bgs with the best discography btw
2:50 the guy who is constantly attacking you is Bae Jinyoung. He’s also the one at 5:33 , 7:23 and 20:35. 28:09 is also Jinyoung, you recognised him! He’s the center and a great dancer so that’s why he’s always in the middle 10:18 the one going off in the background is our main vocalist Seunghun! He’s fantastic 25:56 is Hyunsuk, the maknae, rapper and dancer 29:06 is also him, yes, he’s a rapper The other two members are 9:01 BX/Byounggon aka THE rapper and leader of CIX and 25:37 Younghee! He’s kinda under appreciated so please, C9, give him more linessss I was so pleasantly surprised to see you reacting to CIX! For other songs of theirs i would recommend revival and numb! Cinema is one if my comfort songs, movie star is an excellent debut song and jungle is simply a work of art. Thanks for reacting to them and welcome, new FIX :)
honestly, there’s a reason CIX are my ults. not only because of their musicality and absolutely beautiful discography, but because no matter what genre they do, they manage to grasp onto the concept and execute it perfectly. they know the concept they’re going for, understand it, and enforce it. even when CINEMA was somewhat in the retro trend, they still managed to create their own sound through a soft pop subtlety as well. i nearly got annoyed with the retro songs kpop groups released because they all sounded so similar and non-catching. but then CIX broke through with CINEMA. glad to say imma FIX since debut and will continue doing so.
I know very little about CIX and their music, but Jungle is still one of my favorite Kpop songs of all time. There’s not a single part of that song that I don’t like, and the MV is stunning!
Omg you should check out their discography, they seriously have one of the best imo, their b-sides are amazinggg I was sucked in by Jungle too and never looked back hehe If you need recs I would love to give some:)
@@meganelk8202 yay! okay hehe would be my pleasure! tbh u can’t go wrong just listening to at least Hello, Strange Time (Title track is Jungle) and Hello, Strange Dream (TT Cinema) bc those are my favorite albums from them! And they’re shorter and easier to digest:) I would also suggest the album Be OK (their first full album iinw) Will get back to you in a bit with some categories heh and my personal favs! But i’m not sure which genres are more your cup of tea!
@@melcchiato cool, thanks so much! I love discovering new music, I’ll report back here when I get around to listening to some of their albums ☺️ (Also I’m not sure what genres are my cup of tea either, lol…it seems to change a lot 😂)
The guy in movie star is Bae Jinyoung and girl you should have seen him in produce101, he was shy and lacked confidence but with Cix he really came out of his shell and as you can se he exudes all this confidence and you bet I was shooooketh when I saw him debuting with cix and dancing like that. He is amazing.
So there are a lot of comments about the concept, but I didn't see any mention of the pre-debut MV Win, which leads into the whole concept basis. One member was getting bullied and the other members, although they used to be friends have all gone their own ways and are ignoring their bullied friend...who then jumps off a building. Now they are all going through Hell (literally in Jungle) in order to get to out to Paradise, Wave is about their journey to Purgatory which is half way between Hell and Heaven. It's all very heavily based on Dante's Divine Comedy for details please check out Bookish Theories, she breaks things down really well. Anyway, if you come back around to CIX please check out WIN. Thank you so much for reacting to CIX, they are really awesome and need as much love and they can get and more. Thanks again! Edit: I meant Numb, not WIN. WIN is a fire song tho, but please check out Numb.
Pre debut mv? You mean My New World, that was their pre debut japan MV. WIN was their OST for ED God of highschool And if you ask abt bullying, it NUMB, their 1st comeback along with 5 short movie eps and epilogues
I only stan dreamcatcher but I'm interested in cix now (pronounced as six, right?) is there a video guide? Seems a long story. And while I'm here, I also recommend you dreamcatcher. They are like cix (underrated -_- and have no recognition)! If I stan cix, they will be the first boy group I stan! :)
@@fatimawaheeb2507 As a multi-stan I am very aware of Dreamcatcher, I do love their concepts, their songs are fire as well. As for a guide, here is a recent one that goes into the story line a bit: th-cam.com/video/njYTjXfIYFQ/w-d-xo.html However, for details on storyline, I strongly recommend the Channel 'Bookish Theories' her break downs are amazing. Thanks for getting into CIX, welcome to FIX!
CIX! YESSSSS! they have a beautiful discography and I’m so happy you’re giving them a listen! Jungle is still, to this day, the most stunning music video I’ve ever seen imo And also thank you so much Caitlin for reacting to so many artists despite all the angry comments about not reacting to blah and blah, You’re working so hard and taking so much time to do this and so it’s so appreciated We love you Caitlin!
OMG YEEESS!!! I was praying that you'd include CIX into this season of the first look series, and you actually did! Honestly every video you've released has made my day. This is HEAVEN. Thank you SO MUCH!!
I honestly believe Cix is a gem to kpop. I recently discovered them and i've been so overwhelmed by their diverse discography. They are so talented and you never get tired of their songs. Thanks for the reaction
omg yes cix!! they have one of the best discographies in the game. also, they have an interesting overarching concept where all of their MVs are based off of dante's divine comedy (which explains some of the events happening in each mv)
Watching you reacting to kpop reminds me of myself 10 years ago. No bias, no particular group, no fan wars.... Just vibing the song and music.Omg I really miss that time.
the credits scene in wave ties to the story of their comeback "numb" and its shorts films, which you didnt watch here but they talk about very serious (and important) issues so major trigger warning for bullying, self-harm, suicide, etc. cix gives us the range of rich and well-developed concepts that honestly only vixx had given us so far
CIX have an amazing discography. And I hope more people will discover this group cause they're amazing and they deserve more recognition. Thank you for doing this video 🥰
OMFG CIX is so underrated. It's unfair. I've been staning Bae Jinyoung since Produce 101 and WANNA ONE. This little-face man is so talented and his visual isn't a joke. P.S. He's the center and face of the group. You asked most of time about him haha
I almost screamed when you said they have SOUL in their voices because YES, THEY DO. It's what I love the most about them. Any group can have good producers working with them, but the way they put emotions in their voices, the way they adapt their singing to the concepts and everything it's what makes CIX different (at least for me). I would love it if you make another video reacting to their music 👉👈 their debut mini album is SO ICONIC, you have to listen to it. ♡ I hope you stay happy and healthy! ♡
Every time that I listen to jungle I am just amazed. It's a masterpiece and possibly one of my favorite songs in the entire industry of kpop. That's saying something since I listen to too many groups haha. But seriously like wow. From the production to the vocals. The chorus and the beat drop oh I will die Every time.
CIX is one of the most genuine groups out there. Their growth as a group was really fascinating to witness. Their discography is one of the stronger ones in the 4th gen, tbh.
Never heard of them before but all these songs are now in my playlist and im about to go down a CIX rabbit hole.. thank you for this 1st look series love you !!!
I'm so happy you've included CIX in your First Look series! JUNGLE was my introduction to CIX and their sound was unlike anything I had ever heard in K-pop. Not only is the MV absolutely stunning, their vocals had me keeping this song on a loop for days. The harmonization is so beautiful and they really deserve more attention than they've been getting. Thanks for the reaction!!
i agree with the slight r&b sound that movie star has comment! tbh cix really love that sound a LOT and u can hear it in a bunch of their bsides (which are also so freaking good like wth) and they really do it justice! they have such a neat and perfect discography it's insane 🤞 a lot of people often confuse cix with being a non 4th gen group cuz they really are that GOOD and i feel like they have a very solid foundation to their sound
The guy with the shoulders out in 'Movie Star' is actually Wanna One's Bae Jinyoung! And I also can't believe Movie Star is their debut song, it's actually iconic. CIX is such a gem of a group! I'm glad you reacted to them.
Oh yes CIX!! They have one of the best discographies EVER, I'm always so excited for their albums 😍😍 I honestly recommend everyone to check their b-sides out. Do yourself that favor 😉
no way no way no way no way, omg i can not believe you actually here doing a reaction to cix, like i am so so so so so happy, i love you girl, no one is like you, just you really are doing a lot and spoiling us with your videos, this is such a huge surprise for me because i really adore cix a lot and i was hoping that you will be able to check them and yes here you are, still i have not started the video i just want to express how happy and emotional i am right now all thanks to you girl, you really are making us so happy, thank you a lot i really appreciate every reaction of yours, it feels like i am watching my fav idols with such a funny, cute and great person like you and yes cix are one of the best ever, okay let me shut up and go watch the video, already super excited
Cix imo had one of the strongest debuts and the fact that they started out like that.. you would never be able to tell they were rookies and ever since then they’ve just been getting better and better 😍 they’re so deserving of more attention and support ALSO BAE JINYOUNG IS THE EPITOME OF DISRESPECTFUL IN BOTH VISUALS AND VOCALS
It feels surreal when people discover their songs and appreciate the varied genre of bangers they're putting out! And I'm saying this as a person who doesn't even listen to much music in day-to-day life! I really hope more and more people can find out about their top tier discography and then they'd realize they're really a group worth stanning💙 Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video❤️
OMGG?! I’m so happy you decided to give CIX a chance! They have one of the best and most underrated discographies in Kpop and deserve more recognition!
i stan cix since predebut and i can tell you that their ENTIRE discography is a no skip. They're all so talented and precious, hope you'll continue to support them !!!Thanks for your reaction!!
CIX is my ult group with NCT dream. Their songs are soooo good and the concepts, vocals, visuals, dancing EVERYTHING is so good. Glad you react to them and liked it that much
It's still mind-boggling how underrated CIX is!!! They are iconic and everything they put out is phenomenal! I love this reaction so much, thank youuuuuu!!!💖
oh my godddddd!!!!! YOU DONT KNOW HOW HAPPY I AM RIGHT NOW HUHUHUHUHU 😭 i love cix so much, they really have one of the BEST discographies among all the 4th gen bgs I SWEAR!!! they're so talented and so precious huhu i hope more ppl appreciate them because 🤧🤧 thank you for this reaction!!!
I'm so so so happy you love them!!! They are so good!!! The one that catch your eyes is Bae Jinyoung he was in produce 101 s1 end up in the temporary group Wanna One and now in CIX his evolution is just crazy !! He grew up really really well!! And don't worry you'll understand the last scene in Wave when you wtach all the video from the Num era ;) Their story line is so good one of my favorite ever even if it's angts++++ haha!! I hope to see you recat to them again soon. Oh and I think you will reallly enjoy their Japanese mv like Revival is by far my favorite song ever from them and that's say a lot as they have a no skip discography!!!!
cix really is such a fun group, so glad to see en episode for them in season 2. and yes the one that’s always in the middle dancing catching your eye is bae jinyoung!!
Yey! I am co happy you decided to react to them ❤️ they’re so awesome group and Jungle is definitely one of my favorite kpop songs, it so unique and captivating
another group i'm discovering with you! I've listened to Jungle A LOT but i hadn't watched the mv and i've never heard more songs from them and holy frick! they are truly amazing . I'll add all of these songs to my playlists for sure.
YESSSS! CIX let's goooo!!! Also, ma'am, if you want ICONIC, they did a live stage of Movie Star IN THE RAIN. Like they got on stage and the sky suddenly *opened up*. The results are...spectacular. Truly a must watch, even if you don't do a reaction to it just on your own time. (Although I would obviously LOVE to see your reaction to it lolol). But yeah, thank you so much for this whole series and for including these wonderful boys in the line-up!
I've never actively listened to Cix before, but even when I don't know the group at all I love your reactions so much. At the start when they asked if I wanted to play with them I spat all over my laptop. Also the "she knows it" bit... is it Bruno Mars Finesse? That's what I'm hearing, or am I crazy? 😅 Anyway that's such a good debut song! All these songs seem so mature musically, conceptually, and vocally. It's so impressive. I love Cinema! I'd added it to my playlist before you'd finished watching, and I will definitely be dipping my toes into Cix in future.
I love CIX so much and I'm so happy you're giving them a spotlight because they really deserve all the love. Every song is a bop and 'Cinema' is truly one of my biggest comfort songs, I watch the MV whenever I'm a little sad and it always makes me smile 😍 EDIT: Also I beg you to check out their Studio Choom performances, they're ✨iconic✨ (not a video request 💗)
YES IM SO HAPPY YOU DECIDED TO DO CIX!! I absolutely love cix and their discography. They got a lot of attention for cinema. But they deserve more cause their music is truly amazingg
AHHHH CIX MY BSIDE KINGS!! Caitlin: i haven't heard of that company before Me: idk where they get funds but they be rivaling SM with their production value
it's so funny because i knew you were doing cix and i asked myself which 4 videos would i like to see your reaction to and you picked all the 4 videos i wanted lol. i'm so glad you like them, they deserve any recognition they can get c:
Thank you for reacting to CIX, it very fun and i enjoy with it.💙 CIX have a good song and amazing discography. And all of MV (they have 5 title songs) are long series such as the end of WAVE, it's a story of NUMB (title song of ep2)🥰
I'm an NCTzen and I'm not even a fan of CIX but Movie Star is truly an absolute masterpiece, hands down one of the best debut song in K-Pop I would say. By the way I hope you'll react to CRAVITY soon when you have the time, Caitlin! They have such a good discography too and all the members are sooo talented, stan Youngtae and Jungmo anyways 😉
I love that you check out underrated groups because CIX is amazing and deserve the attention :) I also want to throw out another group that I think is amazing and underrated and that is Cravity. You are my favorite reactor and I would love to see your thoughts on them. Obviously whenever you can or have the time or even want to of course. I just wanted to bring them up :) thank you for all the smiles and laughter you bring to me and others with your videos
I am so glad you reacted to one of my ults!! CIX is really underrated and I always wished for more people to discover and appreciate them, so thank you for this! :’)
Bruh Caitlin also make sure to take a break!! You've put out so much content over the past week, you've prolly been doing nothing but filming and editing 😅, but anyways as always, thank you sm for the reaction to yet another great group!
OMG CIX! You truly have been blessing us with this season two. So many good artists. I didn't even think of the possibility of getting a CIX first look but it's a fab choice they have a dare I say flawless discography.
OMG! Oneus AND Cix?! I've been hoping you'd react to them (and ONF). I looove Movie Star and Jungle. I still listen to these songs. I'm glad you like them too. The guy in the middle is Bae Jinyoung. That part in the chorus that sounds familiar is similar to Finesse.
The "she knows it" part drove me crazy too because I knew I heard it before, but didn't know where. Thankfully some kind soul told me where it's from: Bruno Mars "Finesse." The "You know it, You know it" part in the chorus.
Lmao “oh look is that a receipt?…I’ve never heard of this company…” “I WANNA PLAY WITH YOU” 😱*insert scream 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏🏻👏🏻😈😈 Play with you is Bae Jinyoung. You will come to know him well. Lol as you will all of them. They were serving straight from the go on their debut. But most of the members had already been in eliminations for other groups or short term groups so they had worked out that new start feel and hit the ground running as CIX. Honestly jungle should have got a win, multiple wins. Much like ACE these guys are incredible and have a lore running through their albums and have superb title tracks, brilliant bsides and stunning mvs but still have yet to nail a win. 😔 I recommend: ‘the one’, ‘what you wanted’ as well. Then dance practice (live stage as well) for ‘black out’. ‘Numb’ and the mini movies, ‘my new world’, Japanese release ‘revival’ is beautiful, universe single ‘Tesseract’, Bae Jinyoung single ‘hard to say goodbye’ is tear jerker. They have done covers as well, bts spring day among them. Exos love me right, and it’s a lot by all members. They have so much range in their vocals, visuals and personalities and all show excellent dance skills. They have all the talents and are VERY dangerous. Jungle is based on Dante’s inferno which is the 9 circles of hell. They are showing some of the levels like the limbo all Smokey with the skull clouds, the river Styx with the boat and souls, the frozen hell etc. Each trying to escape out and seemingly each making some kind of progress. This is tied with their lore from the first two chapters and if you watch their mini films for each character it can be quite intense and warning deals with some triggering topics like teen suicide, peer pressure and depression so some sensitive viewing advised. Cinema is so cute and warm and uwu. the charm can cover the actual great music, amazing vocals and clever choreo. But it is like a hug in music form. Also yes it is bae Jinyoung that keeps attacking you. Lol a common issue, and he will do it - A LOT. He’s the center and visual of the group as well as vocalist and dancer. Other amazing vocals from hyunsuk and seunghun. But they all can vocal. Lol Wave is so uplifting and feels like actual waves in the design, vocals and producing. The shock ending is tied to the movies and what happens to them and possibly why they go through hell to change the outcome. But it’s quite jarring and every single reactor has been the same at the end all happy and high then silence, shock and why? What? Etc. BX - leader, rapper, vocalist. (Byounggon) he was in a group whos debut was cancelled then on treasure box with Seunghan and made it to finals. They both left YG after not making Treasure. Seughun - main vocalist, dancer. See above note for bx, he also was on survival show with stray kids. Had been training in both cube and YG for over 9yrs training. So it’s so good to see them finally able to shine and show their talents in CIX which I think is kind of a better fate for them and us. Yonghee - vocalist and visual. Loves cereal and happy bouncy boy. Bae Jinyoung - lead vocalist, dancer, face of group, centre. He has a LOT of nicknames lol a lot to do with black or chocolate. He was in produce 101, and was in the group WANNA ONE (they were only a short term group but they have a reunion stage coming for end of year). The cute vids of him sleeping in ball pit, getting scared after watching annabelle film and going to his older produce members is uwu. Hyunsuk - dancer, lead rapper, vocalist and maknae. Tall and big maknae lol all legs! Lol Generally you will come to know them but I’m so glad you enjoyed their music as more people totally should stan CIX and welcome to FIX (fan base name, faith in X - FIX).
not even joking when i was watching her oneus video yesterday i was literally thinking “hm, she should react to cix” & HERE WE ARE edit: spelt a word wrong.
Oh I'm glad you watched CIX. i'm not that knowledgeable about them but I follow every release. Love their music, especially Cinema! Thanks for reminding me to check up on that fandom again lol
Yesssss cix my babies. I'm so excited you did this!!! So underrated. Their sound tends to be more r&b which I love. They have a performance on stage where it started to rain and it was oooof lol

Also i believe hui from pentagon wrote their song tessaract. So check pentagon out too, they've got great music too.
they have the same produceer as EXO so that's why they feel familiar
you hit the nail right on the head

Cix jungle is based on the rings of hell, each member is in a different hell according to the sin they committed. And Cix concept deals with school bullying and struggles, 38:13 yonghee committed suicide which then after it carried you to jungle where each of them are in hell. seen before numb Era they released video that are on their concept that shows what happened.The name of the film is 'hello, strange place story film each episode is based on each member experience.( also every b-side is a bop my favorite are move my body, here for you(fully English song), bad dream, Everything and change me. Literally they have no bad song not one every on you can listen to on repeat:)
tbh I clicked just for your reaction to "I wanna play with you" LOL
SAME
Me too cause I know she was going to die
LOL
pls😭 her face was everything
Same tbh HAHAHA

rofl-ing real hard when caitlyn replayed baejin’s part for “research purposes” 🤣
honestly, there’s a reason CIX are my ults. not only because of their musicality and absolutely beautiful discography, but because no matter what genre they do, they manage to grasp onto the concept and execute it perfectly. they know the concept they’re going for, understand it, and enforce it.

omg yes cix!! they have one of the best discographies in the game. also, they have an interesting overarching concept where all of their MVs are based off of dante's divine comedy (which explains some of the events happening in each mv)
They literally doesn't have a single bad song , and they're talented and creative and underrated Af!
Watching you reacting to kpop reminds me of myself 10 years ago. No bias, no particular group, no fan wars.... Just vibing the song and music.Omg I really miss that time.
the credits scene in wave ties to the story of their comeback "numb" and its shorts films, which you didnt watch here but they talk about very serious (and important) issues so major trigger warning for bullying, self-harm, suicide, etc. cix gives us the range of rich and well-developed concepts that honestly only vixx had given us so far
CIX doesn't have a bad song. I listen to their full discography on a regular basis. I am SO glad you are falling into them. 💚💚💚 100% appreciation
movie star will always be my fave!! jinyoung wants to play, so we should play with him HAHAHAHA
CIX GETTING THE RECOGNITION THEY DESERVE. I'M SO SO HAPPY YOU REACTED TO THEM. I GENUINELY LOVE THEM SM OML
yay cix ! thank u sm for the reaction, their songs Tesseract and Jungle is so freaking good.
CIX have an amazing discography. And I hope more people will discover this group cause they're amazing and they deserve more recognition. Thank you for doing this video 🥰
OMFG CIX is so underrated. It's unfair. I've been staning Bae Jinyoung since Produce 101 and WANNA ONE. This little-face man is so talented and his visual isn't a joke.
P.S. He's the center and face of the group. You asked most of time about him haha
I almost screamed when you said they have SOUL in their voices because YES, THEY DO. It's what I love the most about them. Any group can have good producers working with them, but the way they put emotions in their voices, the way they adapt their singing to the concepts and everything it's what makes CIX different (at least for me).
I would love it if you make another video reacting to their music 👉👈 their debut mini album is SO ICONIC, you have to listen to it. ♡
I hope you stay happy and healthy! ♡
CIX has the same producer of EXO which is Marz.
Every time that I listen to jungle I am just amazed. It's a masterpiece and possibly one of my favorite songs in the entire industry of kpop. That's saying something since I listen to too many groups haha. But seriously like wow. From the production to the vocals. The chorus and the beat drop oh I will die Every time.
CIX is one of the most genuine groups out there. Their growth as a group was really fascinating to witness. Their discography is one of the stronger ones in the 4th gen, tbh.
Never heard of them before but all these songs are now in my playlist and im about to go down a CIX rabbit hole.. thank you for this 1st look series love you !!!
I don’t know what they put in Cinema, but that song is pure MAGIC!!!
cix is not my ult group but they are just unbelievable I can't even describe.. all of them also really kind and funny 🥺 I love them so much
I'm so happy you've included CIX in your First Look series! JUNGLE was my introduction to CIX and their sound was unlike anything I had ever heard in K-pop. Not only is the MV absolutely stunning, their vocals had me keeping this song on a loop for days. The harmonization is so beautiful and they really deserve more attention than they've been getting. Thanks for the reaction!!
i agree with the slight r&b sound that movie star has comment! tbh cix really love that sound a LOT and u can hear it in a bunch of their bsides (which are also so freaking good like wth) and they really do it justice! they have such a neat and perfect discography it's insane 🤞 a lot of people often confuse cix with being a non 4th gen group cuz they really are that GOOD and i feel like they have a very solid foundation to their sound
The guy with the shoulders out in 'Movie Star' is actually Wanna One's Bae Jinyoung! And I also can't believe Movie Star is their debut song, it's actually iconic. CIX is such a gem of a group! I'm glad you reacted to them.
Oh yes CIX!! They have one of the best discographies EVER, I'm always so excited for their albums 😍😍 I honestly recommend everyone to check their b-sides out. Do yourself that favor 😉
no way no way no way no way, omg i can not believe you actually here doing a reaction to cix, like i am so so so so so happy, i love you girl, no one is like you, just you really are doing a lot and spoiling us with your videos, this is such a huge surprise for me because i really adore cix a lot and i was hoping that you will be able to check them and yes here you are, still i have not started the video i just want to express how happy and emotional i am right now all thanks to you girl, you really are making us so happy, thank you a lot i really appreciate every reaction of yours, it feels like i am watching my fav idols with such a funny, cute and great person like you and yes cix are one of the best ever, okay let me shut up and go watch the video, already super excited
Cix imo had one of the strongest debuts and the fact that they started out like that.. you would never be able to tell they were rookies and ever since then they’ve just been getting better and better 😍 they’re so deserving of more attention and support ALSO BAE JINYOUNG IS THE EPITOME OF DISRESPECTFUL IN BOTH VISUALS AND VOCALS
It feels surreal when people discover their songs and appreciate the varied genre of bangers they're putting out! And I'm saying this as a person who doesn't even listen to much music in day-to-day life! I really hope more and more people can find out about their top tier discography and then they'd realize they're really a group worth stanning💙
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video❤️
OMGG?! I’m so happy you decided to give CIX a chance! They have one of the best and most underrated discographies in Kpop and deserve more recognition!
i stan cix since predebut and i can tell you that their ENTIRE discography is a no skip. They're all so talented and precious, hope you'll continue to support them !!!Thanks for your reaction!!
CIX is my ult group with NCT dream. Their songs are soooo good and the concepts, vocals, visuals, dancing EVERYTHING is so good.
Glad you react to them and liked it that much
caitlyn, i'm thoroughly convinced that if you saw them performing movie star live in the rain that you would just levitate to a new world
It's still mind-boggling how underrated CIX is!!! They are iconic and everything they put out is phenomenal! I love this reaction so much, thank youuuuuu!!!💖
Wave and Cinema make me cry every single time I see the MVs, CIX has such depth as a group, they only release bops!!!
Jungle is one of my most favorite releases from 2020. I almost passed out from both audio and visual stimulation the first time I experienced it.
literally everytime jinyoung popped on the screen caitlin just freezes even tho she was vibing along before he came LMAO that's so relatable
oh my godddddd!!!!! YOU DONT KNOW HOW HAPPY I AM RIGHT NOW HUHUHUHUHU 😭 i love cix so much, they really have one of the BEST discographies among all the 4th gen bgs I SWEAR!!! they're so talented and so precious huhu i hope more ppl appreciate them because 🤧🤧 thank you for this reaction!!!
10:21 the one doing that adlibs is the main vocal and lead dancer, Seunghun (my bias❤️)
OMG IM CRYING 😭😭
thanks a lot caitlin for reacting to CIX
i honestly am tearing up. They deserve it so much🥺❤️❤️❤️
CAITLIN LMAAAAAO YOUR FIRST SCREAM AT "I WANNA PLAY WITH YOU" WAS SO LOUD THAT MY MOM HEARD IT THROUGH MY HEADPHONES 😭😭 I FKN LOVE YOU
I'm so so so happy you love them!!! They are so good!!! The one that catch your eyes is Bae Jinyoung he was in produce 101 s1 end up in the temporary group Wanna One and now in CIX his evolution is just crazy !! He grew up really really well!! And don't worry you'll understand the last scene in Wave when you wtach all the video from the Num era ;) Their story line is so good one of my favorite ever even if it's angts++++ haha!! I hope to see you recat to them again soon. Oh and I think you will reallly enjoy their Japanese mv like Revival is by far my favorite song ever from them and that's say a lot as they have a no skip discography!!!!
cix really is such a fun group, so glad to see en episode for them in season 2. and yes the one that’s always in the middle dancing catching your eye is bae jinyoung!!
Yey! I am co happy you decided to react to them ❤️ they’re so awesome group and Jungle is definitely one of my favorite kpop songs, it so unique and captivating
another group i'm discovering with you! I've listened to Jungle A LOT but i hadn't watched the mv and i've never heard more songs from them and holy frick! they are truly amazing . I'll add all of these songs to my playlists for sure.
been in kpop for more than a decade and movie star is the most iconic debut i've ever witnessed. also the side tracks of the album... W O W
YESSSS! CIX let's goooo!!! Also, ma'am, if you want ICONIC, they did a live stage of Movie Star IN THE RAIN. Like they got on stage and the sky suddenly *opened up*. The results are...spectacular. Truly a must watch, even if you don't do a reaction to it just on your own time. (Although I would obviously LOVE to see your reaction to it lolol). But yeah, thank you so much for this whole series and for including these wonderful boys in the line-up!
I've never actively listened to Cix before, but even when I don't know the group at all I love your reactions so much. At the start when they asked if I wanted to play with them I spat all over my laptop.
Also the "she knows it" bit... is it Bruno Mars Finesse? That's what I'm hearing, or am I crazy? 😅
Anyway that's such a good debut song! All these songs seem so mature musically, conceptually, and vocally. It's so impressive. I love Cinema! I'd added it to my playlist before you'd finished watching, and I will definitely be dipping my toes into Cix in future.
they literally have never made a bad song in their entire career….. an immaculate discography
I love CIX so much and I'm so happy you're giving them a spotlight because they really deserve all the love.
Every song is a bop and 'Cinema' is truly one of my biggest comfort songs, I watch the MV whenever I'm a little sad and it always makes me smile 😍
EDIT: Also I beg you to check out their Studio Choom performances, they're ✨iconic✨ (not a video request 💗)
YES IM SO HAPPY YOU DECIDED TO DO CIX!! I absolutely love cix and their discography. They got a lot of attention for cinema. But they deserve more cause their music is truly amazingg
i never heard of them, but your reaction to movie star was the same as mine, i was attacked!! i will definetly check them out
AHHHH CIX MY BSIDE KINGS!!
Caitlin: i haven't heard of that company before
Me: idk where they get funds but they be rivaling SM with their production value
They are one of my ug. Because they have such a good discography and they are adorable
it's so funny because i knew you were doing cix and i asked myself which 4 videos would i like to see your reaction to and you picked all the 4 videos i wanted lol. i'm so glad you like them, they deserve any recognition they can get c:
Caitlin @16:23 : "The women was too stunned to speak" 🤣🤣 CIX built different
Thank you for reacting to CIX, it very fun and i enjoy with it.💙 CIX have a good song and amazing discography. And all of MV (they have 5 title songs) are long series such as the end of WAVE, it's a story of NUMB (title song of ep2)🥰
8:03 "she wants it she wants it" in movie star resembles bruno mars' finesse "you know it, you know it"
OMG!! (G)-IDLE, WOODZ AND NOW CIX. They're all my favourite. Thank you so much. It's the best gift in this month.
I'm an NCTzen and I'm not even a fan of CIX but Movie Star is truly an absolute masterpiece, hands down one of the best debut song in K-Pop I would say.
By the way I hope you'll react to CRAVITY soon when you have the time, Caitlin! They have such a good discography too and all the members are sooo talented, stan Youngtae and Jungmo anyways 😉
The way JUNGLE was slept on is a CRIME
Cix is amazing! Cinema is one my most played songs of the year….just makes me feel good 😊
i swear CIX doesn't even know what a bad song is, their discography is insanely good 😩
Their discography is flawless. If you ever react to their albums you are going to absolutely love it.
oh my god!!!! seventeen, woodz, monsta x, oneus and now cix!!! you’re hitting all of my ultimates! love this so much thank you!!
you being all smiley and giggly throughout the whole cinema mv is sooooooooo relatable 😆
Girl as a CIX ult… I felt that “I’m so tired of being disrespected”
I love that you check out underrated groups because CIX is amazing and deserve the attention :) I also want to throw out another group that I think is amazing and underrated and that is Cravity. You are my favorite reactor and I would love to see your thoughts on them. Obviously whenever you can or have the time or even want to of course. I just wanted to bring them up :) thank you for all the smiles and laughter you bring to me and others with your videos
OMG YASSSSSS CIX, this group is AMAZING
I am so glad you reacted to one of my ults!! CIX is really underrated and I always wished for more people to discover and appreciate them, so thank you for this! :’)
Caitlin: the water scares me!!
me: having flashbacks of movie star live in the rain.
gurlll, cix has the best discography in kpop industry, periodt.
I'm so glad you found CIX. Definitely deserve more attention and Bae Jinyoung is next level visual idol!
i've been watching your first look videos and i finally comment only because it's CIX
Thank you so much for taking a look at them
Bruh Caitlin also make sure to take a break!! You've put out so much content over the past week, you've prolly been doing nothing but filming and editing 😅, but anyways as always, thank you sm for the reaction to yet another great group!
OMG CIX! You truly have been blessing us with this season two. So many good artists. I didn't even think of the possibility of getting a CIX first look but it's a fab choice they have a dare I say flawless discography.
OMG! Oneus AND Cix?! I've been hoping you'd react to them (and ONF). I looove Movie Star and Jungle. I still listen to these songs. I'm glad you like them too. The guy in the middle is Bae Jinyoung. That part in the chorus that sounds familiar is similar to Finesse.
The "she knows it" part drove me crazy too because I knew I heard it before, but didn't know where. Thankfully some kind soul told me where it's from: Bruno Mars "Finesse." The "You know it, You know it" part in the chorus.
Lmao “oh look is that a receipt?…I’ve never heard of this company…”
“I WANNA PLAY WITH YOU” 😱*insert scream
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏🏻👏🏻😈😈
Play with you is Bae Jinyoung. You will come to know him well. Lol as you will all of them.
They were serving straight from the go on their debut. But most of the members had already been in eliminations for other groups or short term groups so they had worked out that new start feel and hit the ground running as CIX.
Honestly jungle should have got a win, multiple wins. Much like ACE these guys are incredible and have a lore running through their albums and have superb title tracks, brilliant bsides and stunning mvs but still have yet to nail a win. 😔
I recommend: ‘the one’, ‘what you wanted’ as well. Then dance practice (live stage as well) for ‘black out’. ‘Numb’ and the mini movies, ‘my new world’, Japanese release ‘revival’ is beautiful, universe single ‘Tesseract’, Bae Jinyoung single ‘hard to say goodbye’ is tear jerker. They have done covers as well, bts spring day among them. Exos love me right, and it’s a lot by all members.
They have so much range in their vocals, visuals and personalities and all show excellent dance skills. They have all the talents and are VERY dangerous.
Jungle is based on Dante’s inferno which is the 9 circles of hell. They are showing some of the levels like the limbo all Smokey with the skull clouds, the river Styx with the boat and souls, the frozen hell etc. Each trying to escape out and seemingly each making some kind of progress. This is tied with their lore from the first two chapters and if you watch their mini films for each character it can be quite intense and warning deals with some triggering topics like teen suicide, peer pressure and depression so some sensitive viewing advised.
Cinema is so cute and warm and uwu. the charm can cover the actual great music, amazing vocals and clever choreo. But it is like a hug in music form. Also yes it is bae Jinyoung that keeps attacking you. Lol a common issue, and he will do it - A LOT. He’s the center and visual of the group as well as vocalist and dancer.
Other amazing vocals from hyunsuk and seunghun. But they all can vocal. Lol
Wave is so uplifting and feels like actual waves in the design, vocals and producing. The shock ending is tied to the movies and what happens to them and possibly why they go through hell to change the outcome. But it’s quite jarring and every single reactor has been the same at the end all happy and high then silence, shock and why? What? Etc.
BX - leader, rapper, vocalist. (Byounggon) he was in a group whos debut was cancelled then on treasure box with Seunghan and made it to finals. They both left YG after not making Treasure.
Seughun - main vocalist, dancer. See above note for bx, he also was on survival show with stray kids. Had been training in both cube and YG for over 9yrs training. So it’s so good to see them finally able to shine and show their talents in CIX which I think is kind of a better fate for them and us.
Yonghee - vocalist and visual. Loves cereal and happy bouncy boy.
Bae Jinyoung - lead vocalist, dancer, face of group, centre. He has a LOT of nicknames lol a lot to do with black or chocolate. He was in produce 101, and was in the group WANNA ONE (they were only a short term group but they have a reunion stage coming for end of year). The cute vids of him sleeping in ball pit, getting scared after watching annabelle film and going to his older produce members is uwu.
Hyunsuk - dancer, lead rapper, vocalist and maknae. Tall and big maknae lol all legs! Lol
Generally you will come to know them but I’m so glad you enjoyed their music as more people totally should stan CIX and welcome to FIX (fan base name, faith in X - FIX).
I knew a #FIX would be out here giving all the tea on these Concepts and members thank you!
OMG Yasss CIX is an amazing group their songs are beautiful. I’m glad you reacted to them!!!
THANK YOU FOR REACTING TO THEM!!!! they are one of the most promising 4th gen kpop groups!!
jungle is an immaculate song it needs to be appreciated more its my favorite CIX song ever
aaaahhhhhh yesssss. My underated babies 🥺😭 thank you so much for reacting to them 🙏🏻❤️
CIX is such an amazing group, I hope that you can check them out more because their b-sides are so good 💖
not even joking when i was watching her oneus video yesterday i was literally thinking “hm, she should react to cix” & HERE WE ARE
edit: spelt a word wrong.
Oh I'm glad you watched CIX. i'm not that knowledgeable about them but I follow every release. Love their music, especially Cinema! Thanks for reminding me to check up on that fandom again lol
WHAT THE HELL. IT'S CIX NOW!!! I'LL WATCH THIS LATER. DAMN IT. HAHAHA. YOU GO GIRL!! AND THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR THIS REACTION
Yesssss cix my babies. I'm so excited you did this!!! So underrated. Their sound tends to be more r&b which I love. They have a performance on stage where it started to rain and it was oooof lol
