For an artist who has dancing as his main skill, in my opinion Kai's first solo album is impeccable, not only the first but all 3 but the first is absurdly good. Thank you for another video Pierre 💛
💯❤️
Kai has a distinct tone. You can easily recognise his voice..
Kai is my favorite solo artist in kpop
he's so hotttt and his vocal... Wow i love it
❤
he has different styles in each album. he is the best dancer in kpop

Yes!!! He is a dancing machine in kpop❤
Maybe I’m biased but I agree

About the dancers, Kai actually held an audition and handpicked them, they're called "Team Kai" and are there for his solo works.
Kai b-sides is so interesting especially amnesia, raison, vanilla, Hello stranger, Bomba slidin, black mirror...
Kai's velvety voice❤❤❤
❤
Love Kai's vocals, he can take the listener on emotional journeys. Thank you for this.
Kai's 3 albums are no-skip for me. B- sids are so good. I recommend react to Kai:Film (for both first and third album)

OMG,I really really miss my baby bear boy....Thank u for your reaction...❤❤
Wow kai is the best ❤

Miss Kai! Kai’s Mmmmh was my first EXO Solo experience and I was blown away! The way he can move his body! I was envious at first because I had started learning dance in my childhood and had to stop due to a hip fracture and never went back to it.
Then I just started enjoying him!
Peaches just made me realize how versatile he actually is and his voice is one of my favorites! To me it’s just so velvety smooth!
Mmmmh being his first solo he relied more on others for concept and costume design and everything but he had more input or sole input in most of the Peaches MV and album. Vanilla MV also is a must watch. It has other worldly vibes.
Both the KAI:Films are also a no skip. He put in a little bit of choreography and video for all his songs for each of his albums-Mmmh and Rover.
God i miss him so bad 😭😭
Kai is so hardworking and he respects his fans so much so he made different solos everytime and all masterpiece
Kai debuted with Mmmh and peaches was his second album but actually he had both songs at first but saved peaches for his next comeback, he thought on his every step , also he paid himself for making mmmh MV so we have a amazing movie not a random MV that company gives us
Kai may has not a large vocal range but his voice has various tones ( idk how to explain it right sorry i'm not professional, just saying my opinion 😅) and if he can control them it would be so perfect also he is still working on his vocal and he can sing higher notes now ( hehe I'm proud of our nini )
Thank you for reacting to our baby bear 🐻 and sorry to be annoying i'm just show offing 😅
The whole peaches mv feels like a dream to me, with the smoothness in the song and the visuals
To understand what is happening in Kai's "Mmmh" MV, you have to keep in mind EXO's storyline and concept.
Yet again, Kai's EXO superpower is teleportation, so what you see throughout his "Mmmh" MV is him teleporting.
For example, why you see Kai move a fraction of a frame in the scene when his backup dancers "disappeared," is because they didn't disappear. Kai was the one that moved when he teleported from another time or place at that moment. In other words, he was a fraction of a second off on purpose to show that he was the one moving as he teleported, not the dancers. With what I know about EXO's storyline, nothing is ever random, and even the most minute of details have been designed to give clues and hints within EXO's story. So, even the subtle little details that you might overlook -- such as placing Kai in that shot a fraction of a second off -- could actually be done intentionally.
In the scene at the very end of the MV, what I think we are seeing is SM connecting Kai's solo storyline to EXO's storyline. We see D.O.'s power of earth (dirt) which gives him super strength/force and Xiumin's power to control snow/ice/frost being used. We also see what I think is the emergence of a pyramid, which represents Kai and his superpower -- if you remember, as part of EXOs storyline, all the members have a symbol that represents them. A pyramid is Kai's symbol and when we see a pyramid within EXO's storyline it represents something to do with Kai.
I also find it interesting that Xiumin returned from the military about a month before this MV was released, and D.O. just returned from the military shortly after its release, so the end scene in "Mmmh" may be SM's way of connecting the events of this MV to D.O.'s and Xiumin's future solo work as well.
If you analyse all the scenes within Kai's MV you would find connections can be made to EXO's storyline and things to do with past EXO MVs and probably even future MVs, as well as SuperM's storyline.
As you know, Kai is also a member of SuperM, the Kpop industry's first Supergroup that is made up of members from EXO, SHINee and NCT/WayV. SuperM's concept is that they are "The Avengers of Kpop," and the members are supposed to be superhero-like characters who are coming together to form an Avengers-like group to help EXO defeat the evil Red Force. And, like the majority of SM's groups, all of their storylines and concepts intertwin and connect. For example, in SuperM's "One (Monster & Infinity)" MV, we see Kai being chased by or being aided by drones as he tries to scale a building, in his attempt to stop the Red Force. So, I think the scene in "Mmmh," where you see him looking at the drones hovering around him, has something to do with connections between Kai's solo storyline and SuperM/EXO's MVs.
Also, Kai means opening, as in a door or gateway, so as a member of EXO, Kim JongIn (Kai) was given the stage name Kai because, as the center of the group, he is supposed to be the member who connects everyone together and that is why he was given the ability to teleport. Plus, as part of EXO's storyline, it is thought that the members are traveling between dimensions and time periods throughout history in their quest to find the Tree of Life and to fix all the evil and corruption that is thought to be caused by the Red Force. So, it is thought that what you see in Kai's MV is him traveling between dimensions and across time periods in his search. That is why you see him in so many different locations and scenes in this MV.
There is also a fan theory that the reason why we see Kai with so many different looks and styles in these scenes is because it's not always Kai that we are seeing. Another part of EXO's storyline is that some of the members have evil alter ego clones that have been created by the Red Force. (As we see introduced in EXO's "Obsession" MV.) So, some theories think that sometimes we are seeing Kai's evil X-EXO clone and other times we are seeing superhero, good EXO Kai.
And that eye we see in this MV, although I am not sure what it means yet, I think it's connected to the eye we see in other SM MVs, such as EXO Lay's solo "Namanana" MV and aespa's "Savage" MV, and maybe even the eye symbol and closeup of the dragon's eye in Lay's solo "Lit" MV. And it even looks like it could be connected to the eye we see in SHINee Key's solo "Gasoline" and "Killer" MVs. The eyes all look slightly different, but I think they are supposed to be a symbol that connects something within the larger storyline of SM's SM Culture Universe. The eye might be what the evil forces -- such as the Red Force in EXO's storyline, or the Black Mamba or whomever the new villain is in aespa's storyline -- are using to spy on everyone within SM's SM Culture Universe, which could be a metaphor for how big brother government is always watching and is in control. It also could be why we see the EXO members smashing mirrors, surveillance cameras and TVs, etc. in EXO's "Coming Over" MV.
All of the EXO members' first solo songs have something to do with the fact that they are members of EXO, and their MVs and songs show them using their powers. As you have seen, Xiumin's solo debut "Brand New" MV, shows him using his power of frost, D.O.'s MV for his solo debut song "Rose" shows him using his power of force, Baekhyun's debut album City Lights and MV "UN Village" talks about his power to control light, Suho's "Let's Love" MV shows him with his power to control water, and Kai teleports all over in his "Mmmh" MV. As the first EXO member to have a solo career, the majority of Lay's solo MVs tie into EXO's storyline as well.
"Mmmh" is the lead track on Kai's solo debut self-titled mini album, Kai, which came out in 2020. There are 6 songs on this album. To hear the rest of the songs, check out his epic "Film: Kai" video, which was created to give viewers a sample of all of the tracks on his album.
If you like Kai's dancing you have to check out his dance practice video for "Mmmh." You are going to be even more blown away when you see the full choreography.
Kai solo I was waiting pls react Kai film first is little bit sniper his album and second film rover also ❤ thanks for the reaction, how much I mis Kai I can't wait his discharge next year
Up
world class performance
Miss KAI so much 🤗🤗🤗
EXO we are one, saranghaja ❤❤❤
🎉🎉🎉yeayyyy.....youtube must be reaction full album by peaches and hmmm...
Vanilla and amnesia is so great song..wait for it..❤❤❤❤
Kai first album is the first Kpop album I bought…love it!❤ ive commented on this before, but you make me recognize sounds that I normally skip over..thank you!
He also has done two videos that are previews of his albums that are visual works of art. Kai Film, I think is how you find them.
Kai's albums are perfect. Thank you for your reactions
In Peaches, Kai was wearing a modern variation of traditional Korean wear, called a Hanbok.
Fun fact: Peaches, and peach trees in particular, symbolize immortality in Korean culture and the modern take on traditional Korean clothing that Kai wears in his "Peaches" MV seems to symbolize that he is an immortal being that plans to continue his journey for many more years with no plans of stopping. I have also heard that images with everything to do with this MV and comeback content reference things to do with traditional Korean folktales, so Koreans, and those that know Korean culture, would understand some of the references and stories he is referring to.
I'm also fairly certain that there are also things in this video that can be connected to EXO's storyline, however, I haven't made any solid connections yet.
The title of this song and album is stylized as "Peaches^2" because this is Kai's second solo album. I guess it's SM's new style, they put the album number in the title of the album. Peaches is a mini album with 6 tracks. If you want a sample of the other songs on this album, check out his "Peaches Prologue Film." The prologue film is similar to Kai's "Film: Kai," which is a sample of all his songs on his album.
If you are impressed with his dancing, you should check out Kai's dance practice video for "Peaches."
thank you :) :)
I like so much KAI's voice, and he is the best dancer, also Is so visual, model..well so proud of Kai.
Thank you for your reaction..
Kai❤❤❤
Thanks for your reaction Pierre! Mmmh it's also one of my favorites! This song is from his first mini album as a solo artist, he invested a lot financially for his first album, because he wanted his first solo work to be flawless, you have to see his first Film (it's a concept that he started In Korea to show a little bit of his album, as a highlight of each song), Film Kai and Film Rover (for his third mini album), I hope you can react to both because they can only be defined with two words "talent and art". 🙌✨
Extra facts: 1. For the music video of Mmmh he did the casting to choose the best dancers to perform that choreography and for his film.
2. Maybe you didn't notice that the video shows the concept of his "teleportation" power.
Deff pierre read these coments they spit facts
thank you... yes after some comments telling me about the teleportation I saw it... before that it was just a "cool effect" for me. But that is ok. I don't always feel like getting into too much lore on the first listen because it distracts from just enjoying the song. And I have to admit I did not dive that deeply into Exo's lore as I did with Stray Kids.
But yes Mmmh is definitely an awesome song.
@@NeonReactionsPierre I hope that little by little you can take into account the concept of the group as well, but if we are not here to point out the details you miss, don't worry. I look forward to your reactions to Film: Kai (first mini album) and Film Kai #Rover (third mini album) pleaseeee 🙌🙌✨
coming soon :)
KAI ❤
You'll love his first album. It doesn't feel like a kpop album
King Kai 😎
For me 'Peaches' is a relaxing song🙈🙈🙈💖💖💖💖💖🤭🤭🤭
ЕХО великолепны! Кай просто обаяние ЕХО!
Yeah, his vocals are so warm, cozy , honey like. 🤗And you gotta react to his 1 and 2 film kai's where they have small snippets of his albums. Pure art❤
Like Vanilla 😅
What I love about Kai´s work, is that you can see that his MVs are very artistic and related to the EXO storyline (as many of their solo videos). Thank you for another EXO reaction. (I´m not quoting anything this time 😅)
Kai is 🔥
Kai 😍
Kai’s vocals with the first album was a revelation to everyone since he was always singled out for his dance skills and visuals with EXO. I have heard D.O. say a few times in the past that the voice he likes best in the group is Kai’s coz it is like honey, but i could not perceive it properly until his solo album. He indeed has a honey sound that is impossible to get bored at. You must react to all his three albums because they are gold. Every song is amazing.
Next exo Gravity pleaseeeee
Up
Thank you for your reactions! I love it ❤ just like what you said he found his music color, it's his music. He know what things will compliment his voice then go into that direction, and i think that's why he's very enjoyable. Seeing ppl who fully know what they want to and then make it work is so satisfying. i'd like to mention the unique timeline of 3 mvs :
Mmmh - futuristic
Peaches - traditional element
Rover - modern (present time)
Oh and overall kai is very passionated and participated with his solo project. He choose his own dancers for mmmh, peaches going throught 19 revision, he participating in ideas of style clothing in his mvs, making sure the mv set is good, even for FILM : KAI he inserted his own money to fund it so there's no budgeting issue that limit overall project. As a group member who goes solo, he can simply focus just on the music and overall theme but nope (guess it's bcs he's also more lean into performance aspect). Like there's film : kai prologue for peaches with snippet of 1 song (cause he didn't have time to include all song) and he shoot for 17 hours. So how long it take for OG film kai (with 6 songs) to shoot?
thank you for that!
Thanks for the reaction please checkout also his dance practice for this two and olease more EXO reaction..Thanks!
I’ve been waiting for this, Pierre!!! Peaches was such a wonderful title track. The mv is so beautiful and decorated with historical references. Super cool sets, beautiful historically inspired outfits, and of course Kai’s smooth, velvety voice.
Mmmh was a cultural RESET!!! It was the hero we didn’t know we needed in 2020 at the peak of lockdown. The visuals in the music video are so awesome and invoke a future-dystopia feeling.
Both songs are at the opposite ends of the smooth rnb spectrum!! Once again, loving your analysis of how the songs are constructed and what makes them special/interesting. Keep up the awesome reactions!!
thank you once again.... happy to have you here. stay safe
#KAI ❤❤❤
Actually his peaches album is my favorite of his solo jobs🩷
Thanks for the review. You may like the film Kai for his 1st and most recent album. They are snippets of the songs on each album.
I will have to check them out
Thanks for reacting to Kai! My favorite soloist in EXO is D.O., but my favorite discography of a soloist is Kai's, I really enjoy his songs, I hope you can listen to his song Vanilla or Ride or Die, they are incredible songs 💖
Nice to have you here. Thank you
Mmmh é uma obra prima
Kim Kai ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
i listen kai songs, a lot.
Pierre, thank you very much for your reactions. You officially made my dreams come true lol. You must have noticed what a unique and quality idol Kai is. The song Mmmh is different from all his songs for me. Also, all the comments saying you should watch Film Kai's are going crazy. I think you should watch it to see and hear something delicious. By the way, from the first moment, Kai was presented with a cream soda concept in terms of his physical appearance. But if you remember the guide video you watched about him, you will also remember that he is almost a baby. Thanks again for the reactions.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it
Mmm❤
All KAI's solo albums are amazing, unskippable. His concept for every album is cool, too. I recommend FILM: KAI, Peaches Prologue Film, FILM: KAI Rover next. Your reactions are so fun, as always😆 Thank you so much, Pierre😊
thank you so much!!!
As a main dancer Kai already has 3 solo album is mind blowing. And my fav is still the first album, idk its hmmm..

First, thanks for doing both songs, Pierre. Kai has really honed beautifully distinctive and smooth vocal skills. And, like you said, both songs showcase them well. ... Second, regarding that "I've never been the bad guy ... maybe I should change my ways" bit. Uh huh. What was that you said about "not always about the smoothness, etc.?" And the other thing: "in the end, both songs are all about the Cream Soda right?" I'm shaking my head and wagging a finger at you, Pierre! 🤣🤣🤣 ... But at the same time I'm thanking you for another fun reaction! 🙂
hahaha ... oh Pamela.... I might have lied a tiny bit about being innocent. But really only a little bit. Promise :)
