➫ HI!
I am an actor and content creator with Hollywood credits including roles on Lucifer (Netflix), Starlight Christmas (Hallmark), JT Leroy (Universal Studios), etc. In this channel, I offer insight to Kpop performances using my 10+ years of training in dance, acting, singing and overall performance. In dance, my forte are contemporary and musicals and have done most of my performances in theatre.

Produce 101, Season 2 Full episode reactions now available on my Patreon! www.patreon.com/posts/reality-produce-47750396
I really want to watch already but I’m waiting until March 1st to move to all tier membership since I believe I got the one under that. Since Patreon restarts every first day of the month and paying now when in less 10 days it restarts for only 2 reactions (counting this one and next week) i can’t afford so I will start by next month. Looking forward to it definitely! Thank god this month is short lol
Oooh plss react to wanna one
please react to ong seong wu, he's in the same company with astro ❤️❤️❤️
Can you react to santa and rikimaru dance at Chuang2021? Both of them are chuang2021 contestants and both of them such a good dancer. You would not regret it when you watch them dance.Santa is world dance champion 3 time meanwhile Riki is a choreographer.

And Kang Daniel is the youngest Ceo in Korea, he has his own company called Konnect Entertainment
tbh i just found about this today and i was amazed. like wow i didn't know that he owned konnect entertainment
@@sedra4632 there was a whole story about it too, like it wasnt his initial plan to set up a company
@@luchia9313 oh interesting, thanks for the info. i will make sure to read more about it later
how old is he tho
@@azana1593 Kang Daniel is born in 1996 which means he is currently 24 years old
This song was written by himself and is about his personal experiences. He went through tough times, and he suffered a few health conditions. Thank you for reacting to Daniel! Hope you like his other songs, such as Wave or Who U Are!
I love the song who u are!! he's really talented and deserves more attention! :D
You're essentially right in the music video/lyrics being a metaphor: it's a very long story, but Daniel went on a break in late 2019-early 2020 due to depression and anxiety. He had a really hard time in 2019 due to a number of events and a lot of hate he received. I believe he wrote the lyrics to this song when he was on break. Luckily he's doing a lot better now! Glad to see your reaction, as always.
You should watch his MV
Wave - ft. Jamie and Simon Dominic
This song is a bop
It's one of my faves from 2020
And who you are as well
It's amazing
It's sooo good
it's my fav too!!
Respect to Daniel because in some of the dance scenes they were filmed after his water scene and while they were filming the water scene I think something happened while they were filming in the water, so he had a hard time breathing the next day while dancing his dance scenes and he said his chest hurt a lot
His manger is also the one that played that cyborg looking person in that room scene
@Abdul Azfar lol Na fam u good and ya I did comment over there
I'm so glad you're finally checking out Daniel's solo stuff!! He's quickly becoming one of my favorite solo artists.
I am obsessed with Paranoia, so he is already one of my faves along with Taemin and AleXa
Can you react Kang Daniel's "Who U Are" mv & dance practice please
yess omg that choreo is amazing
Yes please!!! It's fantastic
YEEEEES
That was the very first Kang Daniel song I heard and never looked back 😄
I love Kang Daniel's style of dancing...he looks so chill yet the choreo is still hard,,,, the dance just move naturally on his body
daniel learned both contemporary and b-boying before he joined produce 101, so he definitely carries aspects of both contemporary and more hip-hop styles as you said !
thank you for reacting to him, i hope you will react to more kang daniel in the future as well!
Kang Daniel definitely improved a lot in singing since produce 101. When I said a lot I mean A LOT. 😭
stan talent , stan kang daniel yes
pls react to 2u & who u are!!!
There is a haunting, zombie-like style to this choreo and by far he owns it! Since you're watching Produce 101 second season, please react to Wanna One at some point, you'll definitely get why they were so well known!
Thank you for reacting to Kang Daniel's PARANOIA MV and dance practice. Please keep supporting him in the future.

#다니티_마음_깊숙이_파고든_다니엘의_순간
#KONNECTEntertainment
i really think that this choreography really encompasses paranoia so well. the stiffened, tense quality they all dance with really shows how with anxiety we feel as if everything is tense, like a struggle to move. even the contemporary style was a great choice to incorporate because it's so useful to show abstract feelings with paranoia
Paranoia is just on another level
Honestly ALL his dance practice videos ARE AMAZING. Daniel is mainly a dancer so his dancing is impeccable! Please check his dance videos in his channel >
Before Paranoia I didn't know that he was such a good dancer. The contemporary style fits him and this song so well and the delivery is on point, even in the dance practice. Can't wait to see more of him.
I never really followed what he was doing but when Daniel is having a comeback you can't help but listen to it over and over.
Thank you for reacting!! Daniel himself wrote the lyrics from his experience, he wanted to show the feeling of breaking down as he made this while he was in hiatus to care for his mental health as he was suffering from depression and panic disorder. As you’re watching Produce series, you’ll see how much he’s grown and that is only the beginning of his journey. He went through hell after that and came back to us stronger. This is a trailer to his next album so hopefully you’ll check that out too.
He's a soloist with b-boying and modern dance roots who is also the CEO of his company after his former boy group disbanded in 2018. He went through hardships in 2019 after taking legal action against his company since it sold his contract rights without his consent. His former company ran smear campaigns to get him to cave, but he didn't relent since he was in the right. While this was going on, sometime in early 2019, he was diagnosed with depression and panic disorder. After the court sided with Daniel to suspend the contract, he started up his own company. Daniel was blacklisted from the Korean music industry for most of 2019 until his former company dropped their charges. Daniel was shaken by what he went through. Because of the smear campaigns, he had a lot of haters attacking him and spreading slander. He reached a breaking point in December 2019 and went on hiatus for his mental and physical health for a couple months. He wrote the lyrics to PARANOIA at that time when he lost his will to keep going. The song expressed his paranoia that he might hurt himself. After recording he said he thought, "Such dark topics and things can be just simply shared like this,” and was happy because he felt like he overcame his pain, like he surpassed his past self and his perspective became wider and could see things he wasn’t able to see before.
Really proud of how far he's come and how open he is about his struggles. From a Soompi article, he said, "I believe this is a feeling everyone can relate to, there’s only a difference in the extent and the depth. I’m thankful that I can display the feelings I’ve felt through music. The reason I put focus on such a dark aspect is because the majority of people are reluctant to bring this up. I wanted to confess my inner concerns and communicate them."
this song is so so great, but you were right in it being a metaphor! Daniel went on a long break sometime late 2019 because of his mental health; his anxiety and depression had worsened, and he was also getting hate for it. During that break, he wrote the lyrics to this song - but he’s doing so so much better!! thank you for your reaction
You need to react to "It's Dangerous Beyond the Blankets". It's about 14 episodes in total. They take Korean celebrity homebodies and make them live together for a few days and film it. Daniel is one of the main cast members. His picture was everywhere when I was in Seoul back in 2018 and when I got home I looked up who he was and that show endeared him to me. You'll be surprised at who shows up on the show. The interactions are great.
people forget that kang daniel was not only the center and fotg of wanna one, but he was also the main dancer and main rapper, and that don't sit right with me
Ikr!
and a great leader
About the choreo: We Dem Boyz choreographed this and they're the ones who choreographed Victon's What I Said too! Kim Ingyoo, one of We Dem Boys choreographers, is a close friend of Kang Daniel, so his team take part in choreographing all of his songs since his solo debut. As far as I know Daniel was the one that helped them to be known choreographers in the industry and now they've worked with Victon, Cravity and even Super M (Tiger Inside and One), among other groups
oh thanks for adding this info! I found WDBs' channel and social media recently but don't know too much about them yet.
Adding, they also choreographed CL's Hwa and also the back up dancers :)
Kang Daniel is also known as a “Stage Master” as he’s a strong performer. All of his choreo (even b-side tracks) has really great choreo, thanks to his skilled dance crew/friends along with talented choreographers (Ingyoo & Vata). Appreciate your inputs as a performer 🙏👏 perhaps you can react to Kang Daniel’s previous dance practices like #WhoUAre, #Touchin, #2U, #Jealous, etc... thank you!
Dance has always always been his forte like he's really cool when he dance then rap and then his vocals keeps on just getting better.
You have to watch Who You Are By Kang Daniel as well. I think you'll enjoy the dance practice for that song.
My Turn by Cravity is another choreography you might like.
You know who are u , paranoia, break all the rules, flame and my turn was made by the same choreographer vata
@montebesaurus ! those two are by the same choreographers - add in What I Said by Victon, that's also them.
Kang Daniel has really improved a lot since produce 101... My wannable heart 🥺🥺💙
Please(!) react to Kang Daniel’s “I Hope” dance practice (not the performance video). I’ve been a K-Pop fan for nearly a decade and it’s one of the most distinctive choreos I’ve seen. It draws on different influences and techniques than you usually see. And of course, Daniel just nails it perfectly. There hasn’t been a dancer react to this yet and it deserves your attention.
Their is one but idk he never updated since 2 yrs
Wow I watched your reaction without a skip, so much detailed, so good!
Daniel's major in high school was modern dance so he has learned many dances including ballet, no wonder he can express emotions through dancing so well!
Thank you so much for your reaction! Loved it! Your reaction is one of the first I’ve seen that picks up on Daniel’s contemporary dance background! I’m so happy! :)
Just leaving some info here about him if anyone is curious : Kang Daniel was the winner of Produce 101 Season 2 (a survival program to form a boy group of 11 members which the winner would get to become the center of the group). The group was contracted to promote together for 1.5 years (ending in Dec. 2018). Wanna One was highly successful in Korea & Asia. Once their contract ended, the members returned to their original groups or went solo.
He was planing on going solo early 2019 but before he had that chance, he found out that his rights were transferred to a 3rd party without his consent (aka a slave contract) & entered into legal dispute with his ex-company to suspend/terminate his contract. Long story short, they finally settled with him after extensive media play, media ban, attacks on his character & etc. While still under media ban mid 2019, he established his own company “Konnect Entertainment” + went solo (although he could not promote on national tv at that time) & after he entered into settlement with his ex-company (Nov. 2019 onwards), the ban was lifted & he was/is now able to promote his music/work freely under his own name/his own company.
Since 2019, apart from his debut album (Color On Me), Daniel has put out 2 more eps in his color series (CYAN & MAGENTA). PARANOIA is a digital single which is the start of/will lead into his 3rd & final album to the color series (which I think is coming soon...)
Daniel’s concept for the color series (the trilogy) is “finding his colors” in music, so he’s been experimenting with different genres & beats. His lastest ep “MAGENTA” was a summer album with fun summer/party beats & its very different from PARANOIA which has rock/dark vibe.
For a little info on the song, PARANOIA is a self-written track by Daniel. He co-wrote the lyrics from his own experience battling with anxiety in the past (he said he is much better now so pls don’t worry). He is now strong enough to open up, talk about & share his experience thru his music.
Again, thank you so much for your reaction & for checking out his music! :)
Kang Daniel is an amazing artist
I am so glad you reacted to Kangdaniel. I have listened too this song everyday multiple times since it came out. I love in the dance practice that STOMPING of the feet. He makes this look so effortless yet anyone who danced knows this is not an easy dance. It's hard on the body and feet. Hope you react to him more in the future. He deserves it for sure. He is truly talented and impressive. Not just that but for being a CEO he is so humble. I am really impressed by him.
I am obsessed with Paranoia! Easily one of my faves of Feb 2021!
Edit: Paranoia is a trailer for his next album!
React more to kang daniel's dance practices and mv pls! 😭
Watch this video: Kang Daniel - Who u are MV+ Dance Practice. I sure you will like it)))
Daniel learned contemporary dance when he's in high school for a while. Also B-boy!!
Thanks for your reactions. Since you're dancer and know the details of the choreography it's so satisfying to watch your reactions. If you don't mind, I would recommend Kang Daniel's another MV Who U Are and the dance practice. The dance practice is really cool.
their dances are distorted like or zombiefied moves since its paranoia like crazy like & the lalala is like a demon like . because its fighting the demon within himself . thats the essence
This is an amazing analysis of the dance and concepts - thanks!
Just wanted to add since you're checking out PD101 season 2, that after he won the show, he was basically the most popular Korean man, next to the President of Korea. And yet, with all that popularity (extra CF and promotions apart from with WannaOne) he remained soo grounded and appreciative of everything that was happening. He never took it for granted the amount of love he received, but after the disbandment of WannaOne, the company he belonged DID take advantage of him and sold agreements he never agreed to. That's where the lawsuits began and when that company and the industry and some antis turned on him causing him to feel lost, and ultimately paranoia (in a sense) as he was diagnosed with anxiety and depression in late 2019. As you can probably tell from the comments before mine, this song was based off of his personal experience and like you said this song must have been a representation of what he felt at that time.
Thanks for reading this comment haha, it's long. If you enjoyed his dance lines (which he is known for), do check out his past performances both in WannaOne, but especially from Konnect Entertainment, his own company. He has choreo for his B-side songs off his albums as well! Thanks!
p.s. He studied some modern dance in high school as well
Please react to Kang Daniel "Who are u" dance practice,, thats totally insane
You should seriously watch his Who U Are the MV but the dance practice is amazing. :)
Kang Daniel’s dance lines just fits right for me 💜 You should react to Who You Are dance practice video too!
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS

Check out his other songs too. Daniel has great discography with a lot of different genres. You won't be disappointed, I'm sure! 😊
I recommend you watch 2U coz like it's very different with Paranoia that only proves of Daniel's versatility in terms of genre. Dude this man has a lot of charms 💜
it's so cool to get some insight into dance moves from a performer's perspective. thanks for reacting to daniel! paranoia is a trailer for his next album so i think we'll be getting more interesting personal stories
First!!!
Edit: Omg this is my first time being first
Also, before i watch, have you seen I.M's solo debut,!?!?? I.M from Monsta X had a solo debut with "GOD DAMN" 😍
So now you have to check out 'Who U Are' MV and dance practice!

This truely is a great release - song and meaning wise as you would've seen in the other comments. The mv is fantastic because each time you watch it you pick something new that is just so fitting and clever! It was so well thought out! 💐👏
You're going to fall in love and have your heart broken watching PD 101 season 2 - but you will probably LOVE the final result! They had the biggest debut ever in kpop for a reason. Have fun with it and good luck! (ง •_•)ง
I'm into a watching spree of this MV because I'm- apparently addicted LET'S GOOO
I really love this song and the choreography is one of my faves too. It's so satisfying to watch
This song is pure GOLD
Kang Daniel has improved a lot since he was in Produce and his dance is immaculate! Thanks for reacting the videos... I love how you explain about the dance moves

What Are You Up To
2U
Who U Are
Touchin’
I was really looking forward for you to watch this, I knew you'd like it 😊
I'm discovering Kang Daniel myself, but I think this song is great indeed, both musically and dancing-wise.
Thanks for your reaction and analysis, as always! 💙
Thank you very much for this vdo. I've been waiting for you to react to Kang Daniel for quite a while because it would be great to hear your comment about his dance and his song. In my opinion, KDN is one of the best dancers in kpop and he is so talented. Most people think that he gained his fame easily since he attended produce 101 and won the first place. However, in the reality, he has been through so many hard time since he was young. He even wanted to give up becoming an idol. After finish Wanna One project, he again faced with so many tough situation and that why he wrote this song. Thanks to his strength and strong passion that lead him to the success today. I'm so glad that he can overcome those difficulties. I wish you could do more reaction to his work. For me, he is not just an idol, he is a real artist.
kang daniel used to break dance. as you watch produce 101, you'll see him dance, but there are also a lot of videos of kang daniel dancing when he was younger on youtube.
Thank you so much for your reaction ❤️ his dance practices are so cool really so cool, you shall check it!
It's theater..It's art..such a feast for the senses.
Kang Daniel now is much more better than during produce , I dont say he not good during produce but he just improve so much . Since jeff start react to produce S2 , i gonna be really sad , miss them so much 🥲
Love to see the recognitions from a performers and dancers. Loved your reaction. I think you will greatly appreciate #kangdaniel WhoYou Are dance practice.
thank you so much for this reaction Daniel worked so hard for this n seeing the result gives me so much joy
His other songs are amazing too
- wave
-how are you
-u2
-touchin'
-i hope
- what are you up to
Continue watching PD101 S2, you’ll see why he was known as a dark horse of that season. From the humble pink-haired boy from Busan to a successful soloist and CEO, you’ll love him! 😍 thank you for reacting to his MV and Dance performance, I really love how you react to MVs, you pay attention to even small details that some other missed. ❤️
Jeff you need to react his Who you are and Touching MV and Dance Practice. He was a rapper in 101 and Wanna one but as a solo artist he sings also. AMAZING dancer but also singer and rapper.
OOHHH JEEFFFF FINALLY, THANK YOU SO MUCH I've been requested you to check his song long time ago and finally you reacted to him xD He's an amazing dancer and soloist, you should know that. THANK YOU FOR REACTING
OMG thank you for checking him out! i’ve been waiting to see you react to his music and choreos. pls check out more 😊😊
I really like the greek phrase he has written above his eyebrow at the end of the video.
In Greek, it reads "Τα μάτια είναι σπαθί" which translates to "The eyes are like a sword".
He encapsulated his view of the public and their idea about him and his situation in that phrase, whatever he did, does, and will do in the future are up to the public to interpret as they want, despite how he feels about it, despite his struggles, the way people look at you will always be razor-sharp, just like a sword.
He is such a skillful artist, his talent is so vast and has such depth, it is actually commendable.
at 3:54 some text flashed across the screen that basically says they eyes are the swords
as an idol constantly in the spotlight he is alwaysbeing watched (you can see in the mv with tv and cameras) and at the end on his hand there's words like failure, ugly, loser etc, which can represent the antis hate. The eyes are the window to the soul but the eyes are also of those who are watching him and finding ways to hate on him.
Omagad yayyy! So glad you decided to react to himmmm! No regretssss 💯
Please react to his previous mv Who U Are. It is also amazing
PLEASE CHECK HIS OTHER MV AND DANCE PRACTICE!!!! HE IS AN ALLROUNDER 😭😭😭
This comeback was so good !!!
I love this song and it’s my new fight song
Thank you for reacting to kang daniel. I love how you analyze the choreo, please react to him more. Another suggestion, please also react to gfriend. They're known for choreo and how sync they are. you wouldn't regret it.. Thanks again
this man is so talented its amazing
omgg yess please check out his other songs too!! 🥺
who u are
waves
2U
OH MY GOD YES! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO REACT TO KANG DANIEL! Please check out his previous music videos too, thank you so much for this!
I am addicted to this song
Jeff, I bet you will also like some of his previous songs!
Check out for "TOUCHIN'" and "2U" (:
Daniel works closely with choreographers VATA and Ingyoo kim (aka wedemboyz) for most if not all of his title tracks, and the duo also choreographed superm’s tiger inside and one, victon’s what i said and many more!
Thank you for your reaction. I'm very happy you reacted to Kang Daniel. I really like this artist and his music. I hope you can check his others MVs. ☺️
Love your reaction
So happy you finally reacted to Daniel’s song and choreography. I have been waiting for so long but didn’t make request to u as I think some time you will notice him😊
Fun fact 1, he’s a good friend of Woozi.
Fun fact 2, choreographers of Paranoia were in the dance mentor team for Produce 101 S2 and they knew each other during their youth days in Busan and lost contact in Seoul.
ohhh! I didn't know the choreographers' background, that's really cool.
Enjoyed your review a lot! Please react to Kang Daniel’s another dance practice video which is ‘Who U Are’! This song is his previous song and THE DANCE PRACTICE CLIP of this song blew ma mind!!!! I guess definitely you will like it too.
Thank you for your comments. You explained very well about the dance movements of this song and Kang Daniel's which I am also very interested.
I never interested in Daniel before, but this song and performance made me fall in love. Both song and dance are so good!
Btw if you wanna see more of good performances, I'd recommend you to watch some of TVXQ MV like «Something», «The Chance Of Love», «Mirotic», «Spellbound» etc. They are king of stage! Maybe you heard about U-Know's resent comeback with «Thank U» as title track. He is the leader of TVXQ and is very talented. And so MAX (the socond member) does. You'll like them if you see them, so you can react to their songs too if you have a chance
check out to other mv's kang daniel. check out 'waves'
Hi Jeff! You should check out the practice video of Who U Are - Kang Daniel too! It's sooooo good!
Kangdaniel Paranoia 👍
Can you please check out more kang daniel I can't believe this is your first video lol. But u will see more of him if u r watching produce 2. But all of his songs are really good like he doesn't make bad music at all. Also he started out in a dance group so dance is his forte🤗.
Daniel 👍👍👍
