Fun fact about finding your seventeen bias: You don't choose your bias, your bias chooses you. But really I love seventeen and it makes me really happy to see you loving them as well. Shinee will always be my favorite group, but seventeen is a really close second. Enjoy the journey Sir Austin, you're gonna be here a while! ^^
Haven't heard truer words! For me it was always between Shua, Seungkwan and Mingyu until the HIT dance practice was released and JUN just metaphorically punched me in the face and said 'Nope, you're biasing me!' and I never looked back.
Your bias just comes to you and says, "Hi bitch!"😂😂 I agree that Seventeen is really special. They are my favorite group and SHINee is a close second❤️
The one with the beautiful smile is DK (Dokyeom) 😊 He's one of the two main vocals and honestly underrated when it comes to kpop vocalists. He's also sweet and extra and one of my three biases lol. I think most Carats end up with multiple biases because it's just too hard to narrow to one, so no rush on trying to pick! They were 16-19 when they debuted, so not like Taemin-young, but still young! You asked if SVT and BTS were close - Jungkook and Mingyu (the tall handsome puppy, and yes, he is one of the team visuals) are particularly good friends but JK's friendly with SVT's other 97 liners, as well (DK and The8/Minghao, who you'll meet in part 3). Oh, I also wanted to mention - they work with professional choreographers on their full group pieces, but members (usually Hoshi, sometimes Dino) are generally involved in the process, as well. And yes, dance practices are mandatory for SVT imo!
45:2151:26 He is DK!! He is the most adorable and humble person I've ever seen. Also he is the main vocalist and has great sense of humor. I just love him so much...😭😭
One minor correction (?) for the guide, it's a very commonly spread misinformation that still plagues the fandom nearly 7 years after their debut. The whole "Seventeen was supposed to debut with 17 members" or "They used to have 17 members but some left before debut" isn't entirely true. The thing is, during the entire pre-debut period of Seventeen, there never was a period of time where they had 17 members. The line up changed several times. They were called "Seventeen" from the start, they were first shown as a predebut group late 2012 when they had 11 members and they had a livestreamed shows called 17TV where they showed the members in their day to day life in the practice rooms. Throughout the years on 17TV, we saw more guys join and some leave, but again, the line up never had 17 guys at once. It was believed Pledis may have planned a 17 membered group with members from 3 nations at the very early stages of formation but it was likely scrapped early on since they never bothered to add more guys to the group when they did have other male trainees at the time. Anyways, coincidently in the end, a total of 17 guys were part of the line up at some point but they came and left at different times, but this is probably why this wrong piece of information has been going around for so long.
Seventeen is a group that genuinely feel like a family. They trained together since they were kids and they have such good chemistry. I highly recommend the variety series Going Seventeen! It’s by far my favourite kpop series, they do a variety of content like escape rooms, haunted houses, mafia, drinking etc. It’s so popular that even non-carats and families watch it regularly
Just a little heads up: the majority of carats don’t have just one bias, it’s usually a bias line consisting of 3 or 4 members, or even more ~ so basically, don’t be too stressed to choose just one fave member by the end of this, they’re a big group after all and a guide is just the beginning
I say "S Coops" or just "Coops" for Seungcheol's stage name! Hip hop unit is a dangerous one for me because my top two biases are in this unit (S Coups and Wonwoo) but I love every unit. I am so excited to be on this journey with you! Can't wait to see who your bias is though it's impossible to pick just one in SVT...
@@waewae I know he's quite popular, what I meant is that it seems people who bias Wonwoo tend to be more Low-key? I guess? Bc every other time I'll come across Carats in the comments sections and Wonwoo is very rarely mentioned. I do know that he's really popular though, and I'm really happy about it!
it’s standard procedure to have a crush on mingyu 😭 he’s everything, not just visually but his personality is just😍 to top it off, love themm can’t wait for you to get to know the rest of the members
oh my god you said so many interesting things about the members and you guessed some things correct! • s.coups is the general leader of seventeen as a whole and also for the hip hop unit- he’s the youngest in his family so him acting like a baby is from his family dynamics lmao, he has said that he had a hard time fitting into the “strong leader” stereotype because he’s never been the oldest before and was used to being treated like the maknae (which is what he would be if he debuted in N’uest!) also, fun side note; suho is my exo bias and coups is my ult bias and I can definitely see similarities! • yes, mingyu is indeed very clumsy- you called it! he’s also very close with coups (like you said, he’s a very caring and protective person and those tend to get along well with the leaders) and coups has even said that mingyu was the first person who noticed him going through a tough time at a concert and eventually ended up taking a mental health hiatus. they’re definitely close friends and complement each other well! mingyu is a “natural” leader and one of the oldest in the dongsaeng line (97-liner) and tends to take charge and other members naturally follow him. he’s a sweetie, you’ll probably love him lmao • vernon is definitely the most meme-able, I’ve never seen an idol less interested in the “idol life” or “idol personas” and he just does his own thing. he’s insanely intelligent and well-mannered and all in all just an amazing dude. • the other person you kept noticing is dk (real name: lee seokmin) and is one of the main vocals- you’ll learn more about him in the vocal team video! he’s the human definition of a ray of sunshine and is probably the sweetest guy to have ever graced this earth. • also fun side note: yes, they produce and choreograph everything themselves (with some help from the pledis team) and all members have songwriting or composing credits. seventeen is “famous” for their dancing and synchronization but honestly they have some of the best vocalists in kpop as well- chen has even said that seungkwan (the other main vocalist of seventeen) is probably his favorite vocal in kpop and talked about how insanely talented he is (which he is- seungkwan is self taught and their vocal coach at pledis has said that she basically had nothing to teach him). thank you for reacting to the boys- I promise that you’re gonna slip into the diamond life quicker than you think. enjoy this series!
Hi Austin, thank you for watching the guide about SVT. You are probably one of my favorite reactor to SVT because you have a sense of humor, which is why carats love SVT since they are so funny.
Woozi and chanyeol are like bffs because they have some stuff where they helped each other because they are both producers and woozi also has more than 100 songs that are registered under his name
The Ultimate Guide To Seventeen 2021 is also great lol I am shamelessly trying to get you to react to a lot of guides cuz they're iconic. Idk lollllll this journey is top tier iconic. I had watched Kelvii's live stream watching all the music videos, so I'm SO hyped right now. Let's goo
I ENJOYED THIS VIDEO SO MUCH! I told you they are THAT GROUP! Is impossible not to fall for them they are amazing! I'll follow this Journey forever and YES! One of those reaction videos should be reaction to their choreographies videos or making their albums to have crystal clear vocals
SO, S.Coups (pronounced es coops) is my ult bias along with Mingyu so when you said you had a crush I felt that LOL. S.Coups and Mingyu’s personalities you pretty much predicted. LOL. The guy on the red semi truck and the beautiful smile is DK/Seokmin who is one of the main vocalists. He’s an absolute ray of sunshine!! He’s precious!! He is a 97 liner and has one of the BEST VOCALS in KPOP along with Seungkwan in Seventeen. DK has also been in a musical. (: hope this helps a bit! Welcome new carat!!
oooh ok i think this guide is not that updated, bc iirc mingyu and wonwoo share an apt unit now, but everything else still applies oh and i'd say they take part in creating the choreo since they have choreographers that help them as well, they dont do everything themselves by themselves,,, but ye they do take part in their own songs' choreography, plus i think theres a handful of songs that are all choreographed by themselves, but im not so sure for mingyu, yes he is clumsy, but he dances really well, all in svt can dance pretty well i'd say,,, no one's a clumsy dancer and as for that man you're asking about, he's dk! but im sure you already know who he is by now
I'll try to answer some of your questions here: - If I'm not wrong, Seventeen Project is on TH-cam, I haven't seen any reactions but maybe is save to put it here. - When they debuted, the oldest was 19 years old and the youngest was 15/16 years old, they predebut content is when they were all underage. _ TMI: only 3 members have dance background (Hoshi, The8 and Dino) and all of them are part of the performance team, the rest learned/started to dance during their trainee period. Also, when they prepare for a comeback, they contact teachers of different dancing styles to teach them more to do a better performance. For example, for Don't wanna cry, they learned a little of ballet and contemporary dance 14:40 - Just to explain a little more about the 'self-produced': as you saw, they do a lot of things, not only music related. Since predebut they have been doing everything, Mingyu even designed some stickers to promote themselves on the streets, Seungkwan called broadcasting programs to get a chance for them, Woozi and Bumzu (their producer) made all of the tracks for their debut album and Woozi had to fight with the company for them to debut with 'ADORE U'. - Shining Diamond is the best example of they selfproducing process, that song was 'the final test' for them to debut, Hoshi made all the choreography (along with the performance tema) and Woozi produced the track, the lyrics were made by Woozi, Wonwoo and Vernon (If I'm not wrong) they choosed the concept and practiced alone. - 44:21 I'm not sure if there is Bongbong products :( - Yes, they love to expose and diss each other every chance they have, they're crazy lol - All the members are really close, they have been together for around 10 years. - Now they live in 3 different floors and each member have their room. - S. Coups is really competitive, but all of them are. - Wonwoo is pronounced as Wonu, with S. Coups I'm not sure, I call him Cheol or Seungcheol hehe. - Mingyu's video is from 'Hit the Road' (youtube) there's one episode per member and is really emotional. The music video is 'Snap Shot' it was a gift for Carats. - There is no many solo stans since any member have debuted (officially) as a soloist, but they have solo content and name for their 'solo fandom' (but is used to tell which member is our bias) I don't remember all of them now. And YESSSS, NU'EST ONLY HAVE BOPS 😩, I highly recommend them, they debuted in 2012 and the members are 93 and 95 liners (4/5 are born in 1995)
Bongbong merch were sold at early concerts when Mingyu first created it, they no longer officially sell them. Could probably find fan-made things tho! Also S.coups is pronounced "S - coops" although many fans will call him "coops" (along with the members) or "scoops."
The guy with the beautiful smile is DK our songbird vocal king.. he's very funny and also very lovable.. also him and Mingyu are the two most scaredy cat members..they are scared of just about everything its hillarious
17 project is actually really good to watch! It’s their pre- debut reality show, but it was NOT a survival show. The line-up was set, but they were given different missions and challenges to help prepare them for after debut. It was a basically just a televised show to help gather some attention before debut. The emotional scene they showed was when they brought their parents to surprise and encourage them before debut. They had all been working so hard and most hadn’t seen their parents in a while. It’s literally the most wholesome show and it’s really helps you learn the group. It’s all about them getting some experience on stage and in front of cameras and on a music video set and about building teamwork leading up to debut
Yes, I would love for you to check out Nu'est as well! Trigger warning though, the more you learn about them, the more you will cherish, but cry over them LOL. Unlike Seventeen, they *really* struggled in the industry before finding success post-Produce 101 season 1. They debuted alongside EXO, BTS, Vixx, etc. and suffered quite a bit... Anyway, here's a help w/ pronunciations: S-Coops, Won-Oo (second w is not voiced), Ming-Gyoo, and of course Vernon lol. All the members are super close, but some common friend[ship] pairings you'll begin to notice as you dive into the fandom are Seungcheol/Jeonghan/Joshua (the three eldest), Wonwoo/Mingyu, Mingyu/The8, Vernon/Seungkwan, and Hoshi/Woozi. Woozi and Bumzu (staff) are the main music duo, though many members over the years have contributed to lyrics and composition, and Hoshi and Dino-in collaboration with staff/outside choreographers-are the main choreography team. Again, many members contribute though. They sort of had to take all this on because in addition to wanting to, Pledis was struggling (they really failed towards the end with After School and struggled *hard* with Nu'est). Once Seventeen started gaining popularity, people started looking at Pledis again and that's why Nu'est's participation in Produce 101 was so shocking and important. Thankfully they're both technically under Hybe now so we don't need to worry as much... Hope this helps!
Welcome to the fandom. Trust me you'll enjoy every single moment being a carat. They feel like family. Also the one you said you want to know more about and the one with the beautiful smile is Dk ,he is the main vocalist and the sunshine of the group
Fallin Flower is my fav song of all time. MV is the most artful and creative thing ever and the song and their vocals... I cried when I first listened to it and the meaning behind it is so emotional. And ofc the choreo is perfect
This was mentioned in the video but not sure if you noticed but Scoups is not just the hip-hop unit leader, bu the leader of the group overall, which is why he was speaking to the company on group issues
That interesting man with the lovely smile is Dokyeom! He often goes by DK too. He has very recognizable features and is one out of 2 main vocals, the man's got some pipes! Listening to him is always a great time
I became a Carat basically during the long lockdown period in 2020. I literally fell so hard into love with Seventeen, through their songs and through Going Seventeen. And for over a year I've been locked onto them. They have a lot, A LOT, of content and all their content is top notch. You can't go wrong with Seventeen. They're always fun.
This Guide is awesome information-wise, but it does get the name pronunciation wrong (probably more the robot voice' fault than the creator, really), and *slightly* inaccurate positions. I think the creator just wants to say that everyone in their respective units are the "main" rappers/singers/dancers of the group in general due to their specialization in their respective units, even though their official stated position is not "main rapper/vocalist/dancer". So here's their name pronunciation and position corrections: *S. Coups/Choi Seungcheol* - S. Coops/Chwe Sung Chol (the 'eu' vocal is really hard to describe, so for simplification, just ignore the 'e' and pronounce the 'u' like you're wincing, like saying 'ugh') Main rapper, sub vocalist *Jeon Wonwoo* - John Won Oo (the 'w' in 'woo' is always silent in Korean. So the Korean pronunciation for Woozi is also 'Uji') Lead rapper, sub vocalist *Kim Mingyu* - Kim Min Gyoo Lead rapper, sub vocalist, visual, face of the group (member that gets recognized by general public) *Vernon* - (we usually just call him Vernon, but his Korean name is Choi Hansol -- Chwe Han Sol) Main rapper, sub vocalist (yeah, all the rappers are also sub vocalists ^^) Everyone in Hiphop unit also usually writes their own rap parts. Vernon is the only one mentioned with lyrics credentials in the guide because his credits are second highest after Woozi, the producer. (PS: Today (22 Nov Korean timezone) is Woozi's birthday!! What good timing!!)
Quick note 6:30 - they were not formed on survival show, the guide is wrong here. 17project was prepared just to promote them and give them more broadcast opportunities if they pass the missions. They would have debuted even without this show, they were already prepared.
Wow, I am halfway through your reaction video right now and, first of all, I am so excited to see you reacting to a guide finally! And second, I am sooo sooooooo amazed how you get everything right. Like with S.Coups "I bet he's the baby of the group", with Mingyu "I bet he's the clumsy one", and just so many things that you mentioned that are not even in this guide! Like you said you felt like S.Coups and Mingyu have the family dynamic, and you're super right. If you watch One Fine Day, which is a reality show you'll probably super enjoy and every single Carat has watched it, you would know that you are so right about that. You got a loooot of things spot on! I can't wait for you to post the next one. Really super excited!
When you said “Can I buy the plushie?” I laughed so HARD cause I was also thinking the same thing HAHAHAHAHA Also iconic line with the “also if you didn’t know im a homosexual”💀
Ong yassss I’m so excited 😝 also pls it’s aLWAYS Kim mingyu this man’s power ☠️ pretty smile boy is DK 🥰 he’s one of the main vocalists and my ult hehe! Also yes I think you’ll really really enjoy the vocal unit too they’re insane lol
Since exo being on hiatus, I also go back stanning Seventeen and omg I really love them. I think you will love many members from Seventeen since they’re genuinely cute and adorable. Their contents will definitely bring happiness to you. Seventeen group vibes similar like SM artist in my opinion. Mingyu feels like Chanyeol but clumsier. Hoshi feels like Baekhyun but with stronger performance. Dokyeom feels like Haechan (NCT) i think. And Seungkwan feels like Key (Shinee). Really love them a lot and love your reaction ❤️
omg!! Thank you so much for using my guide suggestion, what a surprise!! I love your videos so much,, I’m so happy and I can’t wait to follow you through your SVT journey! You won’t regret standing these 13 talented boys
it's amazing how he can tell Scoups is the baby even tho he's the oldest, how mingyu is clumsy even if he's the tallest, having guessed vernon as the most memeable member and telling that it's the group that roast each other. haha.. looking forward to the next react.
Im a new subscriber and ive been binge watching all your SVT reaction and yesss SIRR thats how quickly you fall into SVT once you get to know them and recognize their talent. Ps. When you said you bet S.coups is the biggest baby off stage, I WAS SCREAMING "YES YES YES HE ISSSS" he is the biggest baby everrr, he is so cute and whiny and pouty, and sulky and omggg protect him in all costs!!!
First of all Thankyou so much Austin to take out the precious time to react to this long guide and Im sure the boys will never disappoint you and also us carats will definitely help you through your journey! guess what I am more excites than you. The one you pointed out that caught your attention is DK aka Dokyeom aka Lee Seokmin, the main vocalist and my fav singing voice in seventeen.
- Nu'est is debut in the same year as EXO - Seventeen members and BTS members are quite close to each other but we have no idea now since both of them are extremely busy - we understands ur confusion over Hoshi and Woozi bcs they both kinda hv monolid, type of face but once, and nowadays even members that hv different features also becomes similar i dont know how maybe bcs they're living together for a looong time - for main, lead position, actually hip hop unit doesn't mind it that much bcs all of them hv different roles in their songs - wonwoo have quite loyal old fans since debut - wonwoo loved gaming until he realised it wasnt good for him, and decided to change his hobby, more reading books, and exercise - wonwoo's indeed the tiniest when they sit down, like his body sink down - Seventeen given title as self produced idol by korean, probably the first idol with that title and since they're known as that, other groups company started to more brave to push their group to produce their own music. But what makes seventeen different for other group is the fact that they contibuted a lot like A LOT on their producing process. They created their own logo, stickers and spreaded it on the street during predebut to promote themself, mingyu created fandom mascot named BONGBONG, they decided the concert setlist including the outfits that would suit the concept, the created their own choreos with the help of lots of dance crew according to each concept, woozi is one of the youngest idol composer with 100+ songs and all seventeen members have song copyrights, they also contributed a lot over their famous content, GOING SEVENTEEN, they actually have meetings for it and now it eventually become one of the most popular idol content that public compared it national variety show such as Runningman, bcs nonfans also watch it. They also have their own fandom name, CUBIC.
I think I'm one of those people who has left you messages about Nu'est several times XD Nu'est are the "Big Brothers" of Seventeen, Debut in 2012. I know you have a full schedule with so many groups, but Nu'est is worth it, I just hope you give them a chance someday. And "FACE" is one of the best group debuts I have ever seen, it's about bullying.
I was just scrolling through my YT and I saw this post and it got me screaming!! I was like omg, he finally reacted to the guide. Had so much fun watching your reactions to this. I’m so glad you want to share your reactions for free in other channels too as YT does blocked certain contents. That really sweet. Can’t wait for part 2 of this reaction. Stay safe and much love!
What’s refreshing about Seventeen’s pre debut show is that it literally is all or nothing with the group. It isn’t about which member is going to be included or not. But rather, whether the group itself will even be able to debut. All the members are in it together so it was really fun to see their teamwork and how they overcome challenges as a group and as individuals.
This guide is one of the best out there, good job picking it out. It holds a lot of facts and is not boring like other guides so it's fun watching even if it's 2 hr long lol
WELCOME!!! congrats for finally getting to know SM's secret artists 🤣 also, your so good hearted for not wanting us to pay for your content T.T bless your soul
So excited you’re starting to learn about the members. Mingyu is my bias and I have too many bias wreckers in this group. With SVT you will find yourself flip flopping a lot. I can’t wait for you to do vocal group bc DK is the one that kept catching your eye with his beautiful smile. He is one of my bias wreckers. Can’t wait for the next videos!
"I have a crush," Awww, aren't we all after looking at seventeen. And mingyu is a very attractive man too, even within idols standard - sooo TOTALLY UNDERSTANDABLE HAHAHA
In regards to uploading the reality show and avoiding getting it blocked, many reactors do the same thing and upload it to Patreon for free and not behind s pay wall. I don’t know the logistics of it but that’s just what I’ve seen many reactors do when a video gets blocked in certain countries or copyright striked.
"i don't have patreon because i don't want to charge people, that's weird" omg you're the best, considering poor peeps like me. The moment i heard you say that, i subscribed immediately. :)
Can't wait for part two, but don't rush it! Take this at your own pace. These reactions are ment to be fun so try not to put a lot pressure on yourself! Love your video as always!
Vernon seems extra on surface level but he's literally the chillest person on this earth. When I think of members being extra it's definitely Hoshi like he's probably one of the most extra people in Kpop and that's saying something 😭😭
Finally a guide 🤩 I can’t wait for the other parts and I don’t think you’ll be able to choose only one bias 😅 I’m glad you’re enjoying Seventeen, they’re really amazing artists and people ❤️ Thanks for the video!! Btw, 51:32 the one with the beautiful smile is DK (Vocal Team) 😁
That one man with the beautiful smile is the same man that was sitting on the red truck.. his stage name is DK and he's one of the main vocalists ( probably my bias but i don't actually have one idk i'm confused don't ask xD ) Can't wait for the 2 other units hu hu huuu
Hiii, I just found out your channel, this is the first video of yours that I'm watching but you already gained a new subscriber! I loved your reactions sooo much and you also pay attention to all the details. I was impressed because you have really good intuition (you guessed right that S.Coups was a baby, Mingyu was clumsy and Vernon was memeable lol). Also, I'm super excited for this series, I absolutely adore watching people fall in love with Seventeen! Choosing your bias will be hard lol but don't worry, it's pretty common for carats to have a "bias line" because only one is not enough. The cutie you pointed out on 51:28 is Dokyeom, one of our main vocals!! I am also a Carat and Exo-l so I'm pretty confident you will LOVE our vocalists because they are amazing too^^ Personally, my fav unit is Performance Unit (my ult Jun is there
NUEST is actually 3rd gen! (And they seem old to many but 4/5 are just literally the same age as the 95z. Only one is born in 93. If SVT is more known as performance powerhouse, Nuest won't disappoint you with their vocals. They can SING SING
That picture of yours as a kid is so cute! Don't worry, I think every kid experienced having that haircut😅 You pronounce S.Coups correctly, (es-coops)... And Vernon was born in New York City. Yes, you've been pointing out Mingyu a lot since last reaction vid, and I think he'll def be in your bias-line. He was the same 'muscle guy' on Left & Right. And in this specific guide reaction, you stopped on him thrice before his turn came up. The other guy you noticed a lot here is DK(Dokyeom). He was the one with the beautful, bright smile. He's our sunshine btw. He was also the one up in the big red car, who you said has caught your attention. I'm soooo excited that you're really getting to know them more now. Carats are generally OT13. Like one of the hardest questions you can give us is 'who's your bias?'. Majority of us settled on having a bias line with maybe half of the group then have the other half as bias wreckers. We're a mess lol.
Hi Sir Austin!! Such a fun video. I have watched this guide twice already in other reactions, but your commentary makes it so that it’s almost like I’m watching for the first time 😊. Thank you, I’ll be on the lookout for the next part.
from your previous videos and part 1 it looks a lot like your bias line will be composed of joshua, mingyu, dk, and hoshi 💓💕💞 really enjoyed this one 🥺 can’t wait for the next part!
im so excited for this svt is my ult group and your reactions are so fresh and funny! i discovered your channel through the boyz reactions and so happy u dived into my bias group now :)
Seventeen. Aside from all the talent, they're a very close knit group and it shows so much. Fun fact, the first album I bought was theirs despite being a major sm groups fan 👌
Also, while it's easier to get to know the members when they're broken down in to their units, they do promote and function as one full group. Unlike NCT's units (I'm only mentioning them because I've seen people who learn NCT first get confused when they hear Seventeen's "units"), they don't really promote in these units. They do release unit specific songs on their albums and each unit does have their own leaders but for the most part Seventeen should be seen and treated as a full 13 membered group. And Scoups is the leader of Seventeen as a whole. In a way, Seventeen's unit is more to recognize their assigned positions in the group. But even so, don't get too attached to their positions because the hiphop members will sing, the vocals will rap, the performance members are unpredictable, and they're all insane dancers. And while they did popularize the concept of a "Self Producing group" they do have outside help when it comes to their music and choreography. Woozi does have a hand in producing and/or composing pretty much all of Seventeen's songs but he does often work with other producers/writers and other members of the group. A common name you'll see alongside Woozi's is Bumzu, who is a singer/producer under Pledis. Hoshi does help choregraph Seventeen's dances and has had a hand in most of their dances (I believe he's also helped Nu'est choreograph one of thier songs before too), but he does work with other choreographers on them. Still, it's impressive how well this group works together dispite having so many members. They definitely have some of the best teamwork and communication in the industry. I'm always amazed at how well they understand and look out for each other to make sure they're all taken care of. Like, there's even a compilation floating around of how the members always look out for the quiet members, letting them talk to make sure their opinions get heard. Stuff like that.
Austin I am here for the ride. Thank you so much for deciding to dive deeper into Seventeen. Ok I am not a kids kinda person😅 but you were an adorable kid. And honestly you rocked the bowl cut hairstyle 👌
ok i knew you’d fall for mingyu haha he’s been my ult of ults for years and it’s really hard to not love him, i’ll never not brag about him, plus we have a history of having the same biases haha the thing i love the most about seventeen is their relationship with each other, there’s always rumors of members from all of these groups who don’t actually get along and stuff and i’m pretty skeptical about this industry in general but i’ve never for a second doubted their love for each other, once you get more into them you’ll see how beautiful it is, it even makes me emotional. cant wait for the other parts!
omg seventeen is my ult group along with exo so im so excited you've started your seventeen journey!! welcome to the carat life you wont be disappointed!
Austin at 34:33 : 'They drinking beer?"
Me: Yes. Drunkteen is a neverending saga on Going Seventeen.
I like the way you ask who Mingyu is all the time. All least you’re consistent with your taste. You’ll recognize him as being the tallest member.
Fun fact about finding your seventeen bias: You don't choose your bias, your bias chooses you. But really I love seventeen and it makes me really happy to see you loving them as well. Shinee will always be my favorite group, but seventeen is a really close second. Enjoy the journey Sir Austin, you're gonna be here a while! ^^
Haven't heard truer words! For me it was always between Shua, Seungkwan and Mingyu until the HIT dance practice was released and JUN just metaphorically punched me in the face and said 'Nope, you're biasing me!' and I never looked back.
I agree about your boas choosing you. I chose Woozi as my bias but then Wonwoo happened to me.
Your bias just comes to you and says, "Hi bitch!"😂😂 I agree that Seventeen is really special. They are my favorite group and SHINee is a close second❤️
@@Naamy19X9 Same thing happened to me. Jun was my first bias, but then Wonwoo happened and he is now my bias.
Not the guide calling Wonwoo tiny even though he's the second tallest member in Seventeen 😂😂
The one with the beautiful smile is DK (Dokyeom) 😊 He's one of the two main vocals and honestly underrated when it comes to kpop vocalists. He's also sweet and extra and one of my three biases lol. I think most Carats end up with multiple biases because it's just too hard to narrow to one, so no rush on trying to pick!
They were 16-19 when they debuted, so not like Taemin-young, but still young! You asked if SVT and BTS were close - Jungkook and Mingyu (the tall handsome puppy, and yes, he is one of the team visuals) are particularly good friends but JK's friendly with SVT's other 97 liners, as well (DK and The8/Minghao, who you'll meet in part 3). Oh, I also wanted to mention - they work with professional choreographers on their full group pieces, but members (usually Hoshi, sometimes Dino) are generally involved in the process, as well. And yes, dance practices are mandatory for SVT imo!
YASSS! You WON'T regret becoming a Carat! Welcome to the Fandom! Fall in to the diamond life 😉
45:21 51:26 He is DK!! He is the most adorable and humble person I've ever seen. Also he is the main vocalist and has great sense of humor. I just love him so much...😭😭
One minor correction (?) for the guide, it's a very commonly spread misinformation that still plagues the fandom nearly 7 years after their debut. The whole "Seventeen was supposed to debut with 17 members" or "They used to have 17 members but some left before debut" isn't entirely true. The thing is, during the entire pre-debut period of Seventeen, there never was a period of time where they had 17 members. The line up changed several times. They were called "Seventeen" from the start, they were first shown as a predebut group late 2012 when they had 11 members and they had a livestreamed shows called 17TV where they showed the members in their day to day life in the practice rooms. Throughout the years on 17TV, we saw more guys join and some leave, but again, the line up never had 17 guys at once. It was believed Pledis may have planned a 17 membered group with members from 3 nations at the very early stages of formation but it was likely scrapped early on since they never bothered to add more guys to the group when they did have other male trainees at the time. Anyways, coincidently in the end, a total of 17 guys were part of the line up at some point but they came and left at different times, but this is probably why this wrong piece of information has been going around for so long.
Omg yes thank you for this.
👍
Genuinely sooooo excited for this series! Seventeen are my alt group and they are impossible NOT to love
Seventeen is a group that genuinely feel like a family. They trained together since they were kids and they have such good chemistry. I highly recommend the variety series Going Seventeen! It’s by far my favourite kpop series, they do a variety of content like escape rooms, haunted houses, mafia, drinking etc. It’s so popular that even non-carats and families watch it regularly
Just a little heads up: the majority of carats don’t have just one bias, it’s usually a bias line consisting of 3 or 4 members, or even more ~ so basically, don’t be too stressed to choose just one fave member by the end of this, they’re a big group after all and a guide is just the beginning
I say "S Coops" or just "Coops" for Seungcheol's stage name! Hip hop unit is a dangerous one for me because my top two biases are in this unit (S Coups and Wonwoo) but I love every unit. I am so excited to be on this journey with you! Can't wait to see who your bias is though it's impossible to pick just one in SVT...
Wow we have the same biases! 💙 I always wonder why I don't see more Wonwoo biased ppl on the Internet...
@@laurainathunderstorm ahhh I love that we have the same biases! 💙 And same, I also wonder why because just look at the man…
@@laurainathunderstorm I actually saw in a video that Wonwoo is the most biased member!
@@waewae I know he's quite popular, what I meant is that it seems people who bias Wonwoo tend to be more Low-key? I guess? Bc every other time I'll come across Carats in the comments sections and Wonwoo is very rarely mentioned. I do know that he's really popular though, and I'm really happy about it!
it’s standard procedure to have a crush on mingyu 😭 he’s everything, not just visually but his personality is just😍 to top it off, love themm can’t wait for you to get to know the rest of the members
the guy with the beautiful smile and keeps catching your eye is DK!! he is from the vocal unit and is an absolute sweetheart
oh my god you said so many interesting things about the members and you guessed some things correct!
• s.coups is the general leader of seventeen as a whole and also for the hip hop unit- he’s the youngest in his family so him acting like a baby is from his family dynamics lmao, he has said that he had a hard time fitting into the “strong leader” stereotype because he’s never been the oldest before and was used to being treated like the maknae (which is what he would be if he debuted in N’uest!) also, fun side note; suho is my exo bias and coups is my ult bias and I can definitely see similarities!
• yes, mingyu is indeed very clumsy- you called it! he’s also very close with coups (like you said, he’s a very caring and protective person and those tend to get along well with the leaders) and coups has even said that mingyu was the first person who noticed him going through a tough time at a concert and eventually ended up taking a mental health hiatus. they’re definitely close friends and complement each other well! mingyu is a “natural” leader and one of the oldest in the dongsaeng line (97-liner) and tends to take charge and other members naturally follow him. he’s a sweetie, you’ll probably love him lmao
• vernon is definitely the most meme-able, I’ve never seen an idol less interested in the “idol life” or “idol personas” and he just does his own thing. he’s insanely intelligent and well-mannered and all in all just an amazing dude.
• the other person you kept noticing is dk (real name: lee seokmin) and is one of the main vocals- you’ll learn more about him in the vocal team video! he’s the human definition of a ray of sunshine and is probably the sweetest guy to have ever graced this earth.
• also fun side note: yes, they produce and choreograph everything themselves (with some help from the pledis team) and all members have songwriting or composing credits. seventeen is “famous” for their dancing and synchronization but honestly they have some of the best vocalists in kpop as well- chen has even said that seungkwan (the other main vocalist of seventeen) is probably his favorite vocal in kpop and talked about how insanely talented he is (which he is- seungkwan is self taught and their vocal coach at pledis has said that she basically had nothing to teach him).
thank you for reacting to the boys- I promise that you’re gonna slip into the diamond life quicker than you think. enjoy this series!
Caratbong 2 actually specially design that bright because scoups ask for it because usually after concert the fans going home after midnight
Hi Austin, thank you for watching the guide about SVT. You are probably one of my favorite reactor to SVT because you have a sense of humor, which is why carats love SVT since they are so funny.
Woozi and chanyeol are like bffs because they have some stuff where they helped each other because they are both producers and woozi also has more than 100 songs that are registered under his name
Oh my god you really picked the intense, long guides you're really going hard lol. Sir Austin finally slipping into the diamond life.
The Ultimate Guide To Seventeen 2021 is also great lol
I am shamelessly trying to get you to react to a lot of guides cuz they're iconic. Idk lollllll this journey is top tier iconic. I had watched Kelvii's live stream watching all the music videos, so I'm SO hyped right now. Let's goo
Omg I just watched kelvii’s live stream too
@@pommeeeee it was so immaculate
Elkie Nightingale does he end up liking Seventeen?
@@pinkblueberryyy oh yes. Totally check it out lol
You pointed out Mingyus visuals like 10 times in this video 🤣 can’t blame you
The beautiful smile boy is Dokyeom..aka DK…aka my bias. He is a phenomenal vocalist and the funniest person ever 🤣
I’ve never seen this guide series but it was really well done. Ready for part 3 & 4! Glad you’re loving SVT!
If that was not for you Austin i will be already asleep your lucky 😁
I have been a Carat since 2017, and let me tell you something, I haven't regret it since
I ENJOYED THIS VIDEO SO MUCH! I told you they are THAT GROUP! Is impossible not to fall for them they are amazing! I'll follow this Journey forever and YES! One of those reaction videos should be reaction to their choreographies videos or making their albums to have crystal clear vocals
SO, S.Coups (pronounced es coops) is my ult bias along with Mingyu so when you said you had a crush I felt that LOL. S.Coups and Mingyu’s personalities you pretty much predicted. LOL.
The guy on the red semi truck and the beautiful smile is DK/Seokmin who is one of the main vocalists. He’s an absolute ray of sunshine!! He’s precious!! He is a 97 liner and has one of the BEST VOCALS in KPOP along with Seungkwan in Seventeen. DK has also been in a musical. (: hope this helps a bit! Welcome new carat!!
oooh ok i think this guide is not that updated, bc iirc mingyu and wonwoo share an apt unit now, but everything else still applies
oh and i'd say they take part in creating the choreo since they have choreographers that help them as well, they dont do everything themselves by themselves,,, but ye they do take part in their own songs' choreography, plus i think theres a handful of songs that are all choreographed by themselves, but im not so sure
for mingyu, yes he is clumsy, but he dances really well, all in svt can dance pretty well i'd say,,, no one's a clumsy dancer
and as for that man you're asking about, he's dk! but im sure you already know who he is by now
I'll try to answer some of your questions here:
- If I'm not wrong, Seventeen Project is on TH-cam, I haven't seen any reactions but maybe is save to put it here.
- When they debuted, the oldest was 19 years old and the youngest was 15/16 years old, they predebut content is when they were all underage.
_ TMI: only 3 members have dance background (Hoshi, The8 and Dino) and all of them are part of the performance team, the rest learned/started to dance during their trainee period. Also, when they prepare for a comeback, they contact teachers of different dancing styles to teach them more to do a better performance. For example, for Don't wanna cry, they learned a little of ballet and contemporary dance 14:40
- Just to explain a little more about the 'self-produced': as you saw, they do a lot of things, not only music related. Since predebut they have been doing everything, Mingyu even designed some stickers to promote themselves on the streets, Seungkwan called broadcasting programs to get a chance for them, Woozi and Bumzu (their producer) made all of the tracks for their debut album and Woozi had to fight with the company for them to debut with 'ADORE U'.
- Shining Diamond is the best example of they selfproducing process, that song was 'the final test' for them to debut, Hoshi made all the choreography (along with the performance tema) and Woozi produced the track, the lyrics were made by Woozi, Wonwoo and Vernon (If I'm not wrong) they choosed the concept and practiced alone.
- 44:21 I'm not sure if there is Bongbong products :(
- Yes, they love to expose and diss each other every chance they have, they're crazy lol
- All the members are really close, they have been together for around 10 years.
- Now they live in 3 different floors and each member have their room.
- S. Coups is really competitive, but all of them are.
- Wonwoo is pronounced as Wonu, with S. Coups I'm not sure, I call him Cheol or Seungcheol hehe.
- Mingyu's video is from 'Hit the Road' (youtube) there's one episode per member and is really emotional. The music video is 'Snap Shot' it was a gift for Carats.
- There is no many solo stans since any member have debuted (officially) as a soloist, but they have solo content and name for their 'solo fandom' (but is used to tell which member is our bias) I don't remember all of them now.
And YESSSS, NU'EST ONLY HAVE BOPS 😩, I highly recommend them, they debuted in 2012 and the members are 93 and 95 liners (4/5 are born in 1995)
Bongbong merch were sold at early concerts when Mingyu first created it, they no longer officially sell them. Could probably find fan-made things tho! Also S.coups is pronounced "S - coops" although many fans will call him "coops" (along with the members) or "scoops."
You can't help but get stun and fall in love with them... All of SVT members are amazing and talented. :) Welcome to the Carat World!.
I love how everytime Mingyu appears on screen u immediately compliment his visuals
The guy with the beautiful smile is DK our songbird vocal king.. he's very funny and also very lovable.. also him and Mingyu are the two most scaredy cat members..they are scared of just about everything its hillarious
17 project is actually really good to watch! It’s their pre- debut reality show, but it was NOT a survival show. The line-up was set, but they were given different missions and challenges to help prepare them for after debut. It was a basically just a televised show to help gather some attention before debut. The emotional scene they showed was when they brought their parents to surprise and encourage them before debut. They had all been working so hard and most hadn’t seen their parents in a while. It’s literally the most wholesome show and it’s really helps you learn the group. It’s all about them getting some experience on stage and in front of cameras and on a music video set and about building teamwork leading up to debut
i'm sooo excited for this series
Yes, I would love for you to check out Nu'est as well! Trigger warning though, the more you learn about them, the more you will cherish, but cry over them LOL. Unlike Seventeen, they *really* struggled in the industry before finding success post-Produce 101 season 1. They debuted alongside EXO, BTS, Vixx, etc. and suffered quite a bit... Anyway, here's a help w/ pronunciations: S-Coops, Won-Oo (second w is not voiced), Ming-Gyoo, and of course Vernon lol. All the members are super close, but some common friend[ship] pairings you'll begin to notice as you dive into the fandom are Seungcheol/Jeonghan/Joshua (the three eldest), Wonwoo/Mingyu, Mingyu/The8, Vernon/Seungkwan, and Hoshi/Woozi. Woozi and Bumzu (staff) are the main music duo, though many members over the years have contributed to lyrics and composition, and Hoshi and Dino-in collaboration with staff/outside choreographers-are the main choreography team. Again, many members contribute though. They sort of had to take all this on because in addition to wanting to, Pledis was struggling (they really failed towards the end with After School and struggled *hard* with Nu'est). Once Seventeen started gaining popularity, people started looking at Pledis again and that's why Nu'est's participation in Produce 101 was so shocking and important. Thankfully they're both technically under Hybe now so we don't need to worry as much... Hope this helps!
Omg a sone and a carat. Thank you sir Austin for appreciating these very talented men.
Welcome to the fandom. Trust me you'll enjoy every single moment being a carat. They feel like family.
Also the one you said you want to know more about and the one with the beautiful smile is Dk ,he is the main vocalist and the sunshine of the group
Fallin Flower is my fav song of all time. MV is the most artful and creative thing ever and the song and their vocals... I cried when I first listened to it and the meaning behind it is so emotional. And ofc the choreo is perfect
This was mentioned in the video but not sure if you noticed but Scoups is not just the hip-hop unit leader, bu the leader of the group overall, which is why he was speaking to the company on group issues
That interesting man with the lovely smile is Dokyeom! He often goes by DK too. He has very recognizable features and is one out of 2 main vocals, the man's got some pipes! Listening to him is always a great time
I became a Carat basically during the long lockdown period in 2020. I literally fell so hard into love with Seventeen, through their songs and through Going Seventeen. And for over a year I've been locked onto them. They have a lot, A LOT, of content and all their content is top notch. You can't go wrong with Seventeen. They're always fun.
This Guide is awesome information-wise, but it does get the name pronunciation wrong (probably more the robot voice' fault than the creator, really), and *slightly* inaccurate positions. I think the creator just wants to say that everyone in their respective units are the "main" rappers/singers/dancers of the group in general due to their specialization in their respective units, even though their official stated position is not "main rapper/vocalist/dancer".
So here's their name pronunciation and position corrections:
*S. Coups/Choi Seungcheol* - S. Coops/Chwe Sung Chol (the 'eu' vocal is really hard to describe, so for simplification, just ignore the 'e' and pronounce the 'u' like you're wincing, like saying 'ugh')
Main rapper, sub vocalist
*Jeon Wonwoo* - John Won Oo (the 'w' in 'woo' is always silent in Korean. So the Korean pronunciation for Woozi is also 'Uji')
Lead rapper, sub vocalist
*Kim Mingyu* - Kim Min Gyoo
Lead rapper, sub vocalist, visual, face of the group (member that gets recognized by general public)
*Vernon* - (we usually just call him Vernon, but his Korean name is Choi Hansol -- Chwe Han Sol)
Main rapper, sub vocalist
(yeah, all the rappers are also sub vocalists ^^)
Everyone in Hiphop unit also usually writes their own rap parts. Vernon is the only one mentioned with lyrics credentials in the guide because his credits are second highest after Woozi, the producer.
(PS: Today (22 Nov Korean timezone) is Woozi's birthday!! What good timing!!)
They are a self-produced group, Sir Austin! The choreographies are insane! ❤️ The most synchronized group. 🥰
52:54 "What's good is good" (Korean=좋은 게 좋은 거) that Vernon said in the last clip is one of the lyrics Vernon wrote in the song
Quick note 6:30 - they were not formed on survival show, the guide is wrong here. 17project was prepared just to promote them and give them more broadcast opportunities if they pass the missions. They would have debuted even without this show, they were already prepared.
austin this group is amazing i hope you have fun!!!
Wow, I am halfway through your reaction video right now and, first of all, I am so excited to see you reacting to a guide finally! And second, I am sooo sooooooo amazed how you get everything right. Like with S.Coups "I bet he's the baby of the group", with Mingyu "I bet he's the clumsy one", and just so many things that you mentioned that are not even in this guide! Like you said you felt like S.Coups and Mingyu have the family dynamic, and you're super right. If you watch One Fine Day, which is a reality show you'll probably super enjoy and every single Carat has watched it, you would know that you are so right about that. You got a loooot of things spot on! I can't wait for you to post the next one. Really super excited!
Mingyu caught your eyes a lot but I’m sure DK will end up being your bias. I’m a Mingyu’s Stan forever though
When you said “Can I buy the plushie?” I laughed so HARD cause I was also thinking the same thing HAHAHAHAHA
Also iconic line with the “also if you didn’t know im a homosexual”💀
the guy sitting on the truck might turn out to be ur bias coz he is the main vocalist n cute n handsome as helll😭
I have war flashbacks with the fandom name voting back then, good thing fandom was sensible enough to pick Carat because Hoshi was advocating Mounteen
Ong yassss I’m so excited 😝 also pls it’s aLWAYS Kim mingyu this man’s power ☠️ pretty smile boy is DK 🥰 he’s one of the main vocalists and my ult hehe! Also yes I think you’ll really really enjoy the vocal unit too they’re insane lol
Since exo being on hiatus, I also go back stanning Seventeen and omg I really love them. I think you will love many members from Seventeen since they’re genuinely cute and adorable. Their contents will definitely bring happiness to you.
Seventeen group vibes similar like SM artist in my opinion. Mingyu feels like Chanyeol but clumsier. Hoshi feels like Baekhyun but with stronger performance. Dokyeom feels like Haechan (NCT) i think. And Seungkwan feels like Key (Shinee). Really love them a lot and love your reaction ❤️
Kim Mingyu
Sir Austin "He might be close with scoups".
Yup! Literally tom and Jerry. 😂
omg!! Thank you so much for using my guide suggestion, what a surprise!! I love your videos so much,, I’m so happy and I can’t wait to follow you through your SVT journey! You won’t regret standing these 13 talented boys
it's amazing how he can tell Scoups is the baby even tho he's the oldest, how mingyu is clumsy even if he's the tallest, having guessed vernon as the most memeable member and telling that it's the group that roast each other. haha.. looking forward to the next react.
Im a new subscriber and ive been binge watching all your SVT reaction and yesss SIRR thats how quickly you fall into SVT once you get to know them and recognize their talent.
Ps. When you said you bet S.coups is the biggest baby off stage, I WAS SCREAMING "YES YES YES HE ISSSS" he is the biggest baby everrr, he is so cute and whiny and pouty, and sulky and omggg protect him in all costs!!!
First of all Thankyou so much Austin to take out the precious time to react to this long guide and Im sure the boys will never disappoint you and also us carats will definitely help you through your journey! guess what I am more excites than you.
The one you pointed out that caught your attention is DK aka Dokyeom aka Lee Seokmin, the main vocalist and my fav singing voice in seventeen.
You hit the Mark on S. Coups 😂 he is a real cutie
- Nu'est is debut in the same year as EXO
- Seventeen members and BTS members are quite close to each other but we have no idea now since both of them are extremely busy
- we understands ur confusion over Hoshi and Woozi bcs they both kinda hv monolid, type of face but once, and nowadays even members that hv different features also becomes similar i dont know how maybe bcs they're living together for a looong time
- for main, lead position, actually hip hop unit doesn't mind it that much bcs all of them hv different roles in their songs
- wonwoo have quite loyal old fans since debut
- wonwoo loved gaming until he realised it wasnt good for him, and decided to change his hobby, more reading books, and exercise
- wonwoo's indeed the tiniest when they sit down, like his body sink down
- Seventeen given title as self produced idol by korean, probably the first idol with that title and since they're known as that, other groups company started to more brave to push their group to produce their own music. But what makes seventeen different for other group is the fact that they contibuted a lot like A LOT on their producing process. They created their own logo, stickers and spreaded it on the street during predebut to promote themself, mingyu created fandom mascot named BONGBONG, they decided the concert setlist including the outfits that would suit the concept, the created their own choreos with the help of lots of dance crew according to each concept, woozi is one of the youngest idol composer with 100+ songs and all seventeen members have song copyrights, they also contributed a lot over their famous content, GOING SEVENTEEN, they actually have meetings for it and now it eventually become one of the most popular idol content that public compared it national variety show such as Runningman, bcs nonfans also watch it. They also have their own fandom name, CUBIC.
Yeeeees it came fast!!! So excited to join you in your journey 💜
Btw 51:27 thats DK and he will be your bias. I said it. Mark my words
I think I'm one of those people who has left you messages about Nu'est several times XD
Nu'est are the "Big Brothers" of Seventeen, Debut in 2012.
I know you have a full schedule with so many groups, but Nu'est is worth it, I just hope you give them a chance someday.
And "FACE" is one of the best group debuts I have ever seen, it's about bullying.
I was just scrolling through my YT and I saw this post and it got me screaming!! I was like omg, he finally reacted to the guide. Had so much fun watching your reactions to this. I’m so glad you want to share your reactions for free in other channels too as YT does blocked certain contents. That really sweet. Can’t wait for part 2 of this reaction. Stay safe and much love!
also yes! holiday and snapshoot were special mvs by wonwoo and mingyu, respectively
What’s refreshing about Seventeen’s pre debut show is that it literally is all or nothing with the group. It isn’t about which member is going to be included or not. But rather, whether the group itself will even be able to debut. All the members are in it together so it was really fun to see their teamwork and how they overcome challenges as a group and as individuals.
This guide is one of the best out there, good job picking it out. It holds a lot of facts and is not boring like other guides so it's fun watching even if it's 2 hr long lol
WELCOME!!! congrats for finally getting to know SM's secret artists 🤣
also, your so good hearted for not wanting us to pay for your content T.T bless your soul
So excited you’re starting to learn about the members. Mingyu is my bias and I have too many bias wreckers in this group. With SVT you will find yourself flip flopping a lot. I can’t wait for you to do vocal group bc DK is the one that kept catching your eye with his beautiful smile. He is one of my bias wreckers. Can’t wait for the next videos!
"I have a crush," Awww, aren't we all after looking at seventeen. And mingyu is a very attractive man too, even within idols standard - sooo TOTALLY UNDERSTANDABLE HAHAHA
In regards to uploading the reality show and avoiding getting it blocked, many reactors do the same thing and upload it to Patreon for free and not behind s pay wall. I don’t know the logistics of it but that’s just what I’ve seen many reactors do when a video gets blocked in certain countries or copyright striked.
I’m so glad you became a carat, you’ll not regret ❤️
You picture as kid with a bowl cut is so cute ❤️❤️❤️
"i don't have patreon because i don't want to charge people, that's weird" omg you're the best, considering poor peeps like me. The moment i heard you say that, i subscribed immediately. :)
omg yess cant wait for the vocal unit most of my bias line is from there
Can't wait for part two, but don't rush it! Take this at your own pace. These reactions are ment to be fun so try not to put a lot pressure on yourself!
Love your video as always!
Vernon seems extra on surface level but he's literally the chillest person on this earth. When I think of members being extra it's definitely Hoshi like he's probably one of the most extra people in Kpop and that's saying something 😭😭
I like how he’s one member in from the intro and already in love like heart eyes for Seungcheol HAHAHA
Your childhood pic was so cuteee...it's crazy seeing the process of growing up...
Welcome to the fandom to Caratland, i'm happy that you start your journey with Seventeen ☺️💎❤️
Finally a guide 🤩
I can’t wait for the other parts and I don’t think you’ll be able to choose only one bias 😅
I’m glad you’re enjoying Seventeen, they’re really amazing artists and people ❤️
Thanks for the video!!
Btw, 51:32 the one with the beautiful smile is DK (Vocal Team) 😁
That one man with the beautiful smile is the same man that was sitting on the red truck.. his stage name is DK and he's one of the main vocalists ( probably my bias but i don't actually have one idk i'm confused don't ask xD )
Can't wait for the 2 other units hu hu huuu
When I saw you’re reacting to hiphop unit first HA BE SLAYED
once u slip into the diamond life, there's no such thing as "bias"😭✋
omg, you've been such a cute child 🥺 the bowl cut was adorable 😍
I can't believe I'm witnessing SEVENTEEN on your channel😭 this is heaven🙏
Hiii, I just found out your channel, this is the first video of yours that I'm watching but you already gained a new subscriber! I loved your reactions sooo much and you also pay attention to all the details. I was impressed because you have really good intuition (you guessed right that S.Coups was a baby, Mingyu was clumsy and Vernon was memeable lol). Also, I'm super excited for this series, I absolutely adore watching people fall in love with Seventeen! Choosing your bias will be hard lol but don't worry, it's pretty common for carats to have a "bias line" because only one is not enough. The cutie you pointed out on 51:28 is Dokyeom, one of our main vocals!! I am also a Carat and Exo-l so I'm pretty confident you will LOVE our vocalists because they are amazing too^^ Personally, my fav unit is Performance Unit (my ult Jun is there
NUEST is actually 3rd gen! (And they seem old to many but 4/5 are just literally the same age as the 95z. Only one is born in 93. If SVT is more known as performance powerhouse, Nuest won't disappoint you with their vocals. They can SING SING
That picture of yours as a kid is so cute! Don't worry, I think every kid experienced having that haircut😅
You pronounce S.Coups correctly, (es-coops)... And Vernon was born in New York City.
Yes, you've been pointing out Mingyu a lot since last reaction vid, and I think he'll def be in your bias-line. He was the same 'muscle guy' on Left & Right. And in this specific guide reaction, you stopped on him thrice before his turn came up.
The other guy you noticed a lot here is DK(Dokyeom). He was the one with the beautful, bright smile. He's our sunshine btw. He was also the one up in the big red car, who you said has caught your attention.
I'm soooo excited that you're really getting to know them more now. Carats are generally OT13. Like one of the hardest questions you can give us is 'who's your bias?'. Majority of us settled on having a bias line with maybe half of the group then have the other half as bias wreckers. We're a mess lol.
YESS I love that ur getting into seventeen :)
Edit: The8, Seungkwan, and Vernon were 17 and Dino was 16 when they debuted (international age)
Hi Sir Austin!! Such a fun video. I have watched this guide twice already in other reactions, but your commentary makes it so that it’s almost like I’m watching for the first time 😊. Thank you, I’ll be on the lookout for the next part.
from your previous videos and part 1 it looks a lot like your bias line will be composed of joshua, mingyu, dk, and hoshi 💓💕💞 really enjoyed this one 🥺 can’t wait for the next part!
im so excited for this svt is my ult group and your reactions are so fresh and funny! i discovered your channel through the boyz reactions and so happy u dived into my bias group now :)
Seventeen. Aside from all the talent, they're a very close knit group and it shows so much. Fun fact, the first album I bought was theirs despite being a major sm groups fan 👌
Also, while it's easier to get to know the members when they're broken down in to their units, they do promote and function as one full group. Unlike NCT's units (I'm only mentioning them because I've seen people who learn NCT first get confused when they hear Seventeen's "units"), they don't really promote in these units. They do release unit specific songs on their albums and each unit does have their own leaders but for the most part Seventeen should be seen and treated as a full 13 membered group. And Scoups is the leader of Seventeen as a whole. In a way, Seventeen's unit is more to recognize their assigned positions in the group. But even so, don't get too attached to their positions because the hiphop members will sing, the vocals will rap, the performance members are unpredictable, and they're all insane dancers.
And while they did popularize the concept of a "Self Producing group" they do have outside help when it comes to their music and choreography. Woozi does have a hand in producing and/or composing pretty much all of Seventeen's songs but he does often work with other producers/writers and other members of the group. A common name you'll see alongside Woozi's is Bumzu, who is a singer/producer under Pledis. Hoshi does help choregraph Seventeen's dances and has had a hand in most of their dances (I believe he's also helped Nu'est choreograph one of thier songs before too), but he does work with other choreographers on them. Still, it's impressive how well this group works together dispite having so many members. They definitely have some of the best teamwork and communication in the industry. I'm always amazed at how well they understand and look out for each other to make sure they're all taken care of. Like, there's even a compilation floating around of how the members always look out for the quiet members, letting them talk to make sure their opinions get heard. Stuff like that.
Austin I am here for the ride. Thank you so much for deciding to dive deeper into Seventeen. Ok I am not a kids kinda person😅 but you were an adorable kid. And honestly you rocked the bowl cut hairstyle 👌
The way I knew Mingyu would be your potential bias before even watching this video 😂😂
Thank you for reacting to a guide~ i feel like im introducing Seventeen to a new friend
ok i knew you’d fall for mingyu haha he’s been my ult of ults for years and it’s really hard to not love him, i’ll never not brag about him, plus we have a history of having the same biases haha the thing i love the most about seventeen is their relationship with each other, there’s always rumors of members from all of these groups who don’t actually get along and stuff and i’m pretty skeptical about this industry in general but i’ve never for a second doubted their love for each other, once you get more into them you’ll see how beautiful it is, it even makes me emotional. cant wait for the other parts!
omg seventeen is my ult group along with exo so im so excited you've started your seventeen journey!! welcome to the carat life you wont be disappointed!
Thank you for reacting and stanning seventeen..enjoy the journey..looking forward to your next reactions🤗🤗
