their b-side, goldilocks water is actually title track worthy as well but jaejoong want something more age appropriate for the younger girls and waveway is the right choice tbh, you should give the entire mini a listen!!
@@aliceinbooklander isn’t the whole album age appropriate anyway 🧐 i just thought goldilocks water stands out more as a song and still has the cute youthful vibe of the title
You're absolutely correct that they did not make it into a Hitomi and friends music video, even though she is the main reason why I am watching the mv and listening to the music as a Wizone. The official music video is targeting a very young market. It's dreamy, sparkly that even my nieces loved the cat. It's something that I can make them watch, too. The next vid that I can recommend is the Studio Choom version where the rest of the members' charms are showcased. Actually, I only learned about Hitomi's redebut when YTs algorithm came up with SAYMYNAME debut showcase video and it has her thumbnail. Hitomi is an icon of diligence and hard work since PD48 and IZONE, a fast learner of choreographies, and Kpop dances suits her more than Jpop.✨ I'm just glad that she's returned to do what she loves the most.
I knew you would check out SMN because of Hitomi like many other IZ*ONE fans (same for myself). For a little background on the group its actually Kim Jaejoong's first group under his company iNKODE Entertainment, he has been hyping up the girls a lot and even has expressed a lot of respect for Hitomi which is super sweet. As for all the cat themes the girls actually have their own mascots which is super cute!! its very ingrained into their concept. I honestly have felt a lot of lacking in the cuter concepts in kpop for many years now so this honestly feels like a extremely refreshing debut. For people who want to get into the group: Honda Hitomi - Ex IZ*ONE member now Leader of SMN! Mei - Ex Dream Academy contestant, Main Dancer and Vocalist Kanny - Main Rapper and is from Thailand Soha - Main Vocalist, not much information about her currently but she seems very talented Dohee - Lead Vocalist and Center of the group! Junhwi - Lead Vocalist and seems very talented in dancing, she also has a really cute friendship with Hitomi. From current interactions they seem very close!! Seungjoo - Maknae and very talented All-rounder! she was on My Teenage Girl and is only 13 years old
i was a hitomi and chaeyeon bias when izone debuted and ive been patiently waiting for hitomi’s redebut ever since they disbanded. i had lost some hope and was content when i saw hitomi was acting, but then she left akb and everyone was curious as to why. im so incredibly happy to see hitomi being an idol again, and i can only hope she grows more in this group and her talent wont be overlooked.
she’s been an idol in akb tho😭 not trying to be mean i also struggled to follow her a bit during her time in akb but she was the center of two singles which is a huge deal!! doushiteme kimiga sukida is my favorite, i hope you check it out ♥️
not sure if you missed it, but hitomi was never just an actress, she did her acting WHILE being an active idol as well. in akb48, it was actually easier to interact with her because akb48's fansigns are so much more straightforward (i talked to her about 12 times compared to the 0x i won a fan call during her iz*one days 😅). when she graduated from akb48, she also stopped acting again, there were like 2 or 3 cms that were still released but between akb48 graduation and smn debut, it was pretty silent!
Yes, I listened to the album a few days ago and enjoyed it. From a magazine interview that I read yesterday, Hitomi contributed lyrics to Be A Star. It would be awesome if she can write more lyrics for SAYMYNAME future albums. 🌟
I was Hitomi biased in IZ*ONE, and I was never really into the big groups like AKB48 so I was disappointed not being able to see her as much, so I was so excited when she was announced to be debuting in SAY MY NAME. And you’re right, they don’t focus all the attention on her which I was a little nervous about. I think we’re able to see the other members talents as well.
When I first heard it, I thought similar to you, but after listening(wathing) to the performance video and b-side songs, I was glad that this song was a title song. you may need watch the performace video from "Studio CHOOM" for sure. thank you.
each girl has a cat and a color associated with them! so those cat ear hoods are their colors. it was really cute seeing the teasers because each cat found a girl then led her to the others. hitomi was the last one to be found. her mascot has little angel wings on it!!!! i'm so happy about this debut especially since it means more ex-iz*one member interactions. like yena and hitomi have done some challenge videos together!!!!
I know this song is nothing insane but i'm literally obsessed with it, it finds a nice middle ground between being age appropriate/cutesy and fitting the current trend of more 'easy listening' songs. Their debut EP is also really my style, I particularly love their song '8llowme' which slightly gives me early Kara vibes. I love their cat theme too, the choreography is really addictive and they're already charming performers live. Definitely a group I'll keep an eye on! I feel like they'll need to be a little more explosive moving forward since the debut doesn't seem to be having much impact at the moment, the song sounds a bit like a b-side but there are eyes on them for being Jaejoong's first group and they were able to sell 30k copies of their debut album which isn't bad at all. I think they'd pull off something like love bomb by Fromis_9 well, or ASAP by stayC
for those who are looking for eng subs for the mv. they have put Eng subs already. for some reason ( for me atleast ) eng subs was hiding at " automatically translate " option then choose English. I understand Korean so the subs are accurate ( plus the subs are synced up properly with the song unlike the usual auto translate that is delayed. )
When I'm watching the MV, I can relate to all of the moodboard they did. It's like a super cute things that you have when you're still a kid. Binder notebook, makeup toys, nail gemstone things, phone chain, cats, and many girls thing! Especially for Asian kids. They bring back the nostalgic. And for the vibe, I think SMN tries to bringing back the Japanese 90's girls aesthetic. A lil bit dreamy, vivid, and so many colours. Just like the magical shoujo anime vibe (Tokyo Mew Mew, Princess Comet, and Minky Momo). That's what I catch from the MV.
5:25 I get what you mean. It's a bit too basic (a natural thing with cute songs) but still good, especially live. Their voices are really good and stable. The MV makes it way better. The girls are really cute, idk where they always find these girls in like every group. I look forward to what we can hear from them in the future. And please don't put your mouse cursor on Dohee's face. I thought I have a fly on my monitor xD
SAY MY NAME is a girl group under iNKODE. The group is composed of seven members. SAY MY NAME members : Soha (She is Korean. She was born on July 26, 2006.

I’d love for you to check out their love stages especially for their b-side since the tracks show off the girls’ vocal skills much more than the title track. Love the reaction!
Please check the live stage i think the choreography is really good, and their album is really good to my fav is be a star the one hitomi wrote the lyric
omg, you have single sided deafness too. its such a hard to explain disability, because people are always telling me that at least im not deaf. like in video games it’d be hard for me to determine where footsteps are coming from. and id always wonder if im experiencing music the way the artist intended 🥹 i was born withit, so ive never known what its like to be able hear “fully”. im considering getting the implants but im scared at just the idea of someone opening up my head lol
I'm asking some of my favourite reactors to watch (react to) F5VE's "UFO", because the group needs more people to hear and see them. You have alot of subscribers who will learn about F5VE if you show them.
I think they put forward enough Hitomi. However, Hitomi has been away from the K-pop scene for four years, and that time has become a huge void. Hitomi seems to have to start all over again. If more time passes and the group becomes known, I think WIZ*ONE will get back together one by one.
their b-side, goldilocks water is actually title track worthy as well but jaejoong want something more age appropriate for the younger girls and waveway is the right choice tbh, you should give the entire mini a listen!!
the whole album is good!
@@aliceinbooklander isn’t the whole album age appropriate anyway 🧐 i just thought goldilocks water stands out more as a song and still has the cute youthful vibe of the title
@@thegivingtree887 yes but waveway is v cheerful and vibrant, in a way it serves to introduce to their concept

she was a super active idol in akb, literally part of 5 singles straight and centred 2 of them while she was always next to the center in the other 3
Same bias, love Chaeyeon and Hitomi 🫶

crazy bc same. Tomi and Chaeyeon biased. sooo happy to see Tomi in kpop again
Their b-sides are also INCREDIBLE, especially Goldilocks Water ❤
they are so insane on live stage, the mics are on 🎤
thank you so much for reacting to them 🫶 not many people have been and this comeback needs more attention!!
I thought this was a debut
@@Raisuu oops ur right 😭
why did u wording it as a comeback 😂🤣 when it's their debut 😭
@@hanavictoryia im just too excited about them 😭💖 i don’t know how to speak properly
Hello PD, i think you should also react to their B-side. That is when their show their vocal/ talent more than the title track. It's so good!
i'm happy that hitomi is back! this concept fits her so much.
I watched Dream Academy and i'm happy for Mei's debut.
I'm obsessed with this group
their bside its so good!!
Be A Star is actually a secret gem!! But all the songs are great too and all seven of them have their own individual charms 🐾
Yes, I listened to the album a few days ago and enjoyed it. From a magazine interview that I read yesterday, Hitomi contributed lyrics to Be A Star. It would be awesome if she can write more lyrics for SAYMYNAME future albums. 🌟

Im loving these girls
reactionありがとう😊私はIZ*ONEの時にhitomiが大好きでした。解散して、日本のアイドルグループで活躍してる姿を見るのもすきできたが、できたらk-popに復活してほしいと、おもってたので本当に再デビューして嬉しいです❤このグループは皆んな可愛くて、歌もダンスも上手です😊これからも応援よろしくお願いします😊🎉
They are very synchronised and stable during there stages!!
I really like SAY MY NAME.
I'm excited for them and how they gain their identity
SAY MY NAME's 1st EP 'SAY MY NAME' is really good.

Ole Akb48 🖤
oh wow oh wow
아 이형님 표정 한껏 흐뭇해진거봐 ㅋㅋ
Waiting for another the rose reaction❤
omg, you have single sided deafness too. its such a hard to explain disability, because people are always telling me that at least im not deaf. like in video games it’d be hard for me to determine where footsteps are coming from. and id always wonder if im experiencing music the way the artist intended 🥹 i was born withit, so ive never known what its like to be able hear “fully”. im considering getting the implants but im scared at just the idea of someone opening up my head lol
For subs on the MV go to automatic translation and choose your language!
There's a lot of girl groups today that are cat theme katseye, say my name and meovv
I'm asking some of my favourite reactors to watch (react to) F5VE's "UFO", because the group needs more people to hear and see them. You have alot of subscribers who will learn about F5VE if you show them.
ROSE BLOSSOM BY HI-KEY PLEASE..🙃🙃
Hello PD, can you react to a new song from BEWAVE? Pleaseee...🙏 It's such a hidden gem of kpop song right now, I hope you like it 💯
I'm totally in love with this group that I'm mad there are not more contents.
Can you react to blackswan roll up ❤
illit is coming back tonight i hope you react to them
whoa that's TONIGHT? sweet
The song and probably their concept will be closest to Weeekly.
If you didn't know that this is SayMyName, some will probably think it was Weeekly
The styling and overall edit remind me of another GG...
i kinda hate how they didn't use hitomi's fame enough or give lines/center momentum
I think they put forward enough Hitomi. However, Hitomi has been away from the K-pop scene for four years, and that time has become a huge void. Hitomi seems to have to start all over again. If more time passes and the group becomes known, I think WIZ*ONE will get back together one by one.
that wont be fair and sincere and that's smth jaejoong would never do
