RETIRED DANCER'S REACTION+REVIEW: GFRIEND "Sunrise" M/V+Dance Practice!

- WTF DOES “OG KPOP STAN" EVEN MEAN?! Supposedly "original gangster”, can be seen as “old generation", personally viewed as “old-school”.🤓
I became an avid Korean music aka Kpop listener/lover since 1998. Korean and rap music were my coping mechanisms from the bullying I experienced in middle school through high school and my love for the genre has stuck by me ever since.
Unfortunately, I took a huge break from Korean music around 2015 when I was officially diagnosed with lupus nephritis and seizures; I was receiving and battling years of chemotherapy and dialysis along with taking 32 pills a day, so I had no mental/emotional/spiritual room to keep myself updated with the genre. Luckily, I'm in remission now! Doesn't mean that lupus and seizures are gone because I am still very capable of frequent flare-ups of I don't take care of myself, but I make sure to do so enough to manage and live as "normally" as possible.
When I made this TH-cam name, I was thinking from my graphic-design-major perspective of a brand that will not only describe what my content will be about but will also align with the times, and y’all know that “Kpop stans” have been a thang for awhile now so hence the cringe-worthy title, OG KPOP STAN. (My love for Eminem is also relevant.😂) ALSO! Just to be SUPER clear- me calling myself an "OG kpop stan" does NOT mean that anyone who's listened to kpop after me is inferior or less-than. A kpop lifestyle is a kpop lifestyle regardless of time. Please don’t get that sh*t twisted.😛 Sooo I am currently and actively keeping a weather eye on the KPOP horizon!

Gfriend was a big loss to the industry. no other groups doing the same thing as what gfriend is doing
True
They don't need an industry to be successful , they can be successful all by their selves! And we will support them one way or another!
I agree.
Let’s keep on supporting them, bestie.
No one will🙂
Yeah and that's why i don't understand when people shits on them for having the same "concept" everytime. Nope. It's just that they have their own sound and that's really impressive to have as a kpop group.
truly, and if they go off with their corny 'trend' then there will nothing else like gfriend's concept
kpop genre sound bland without orchestra-pop and animeFriend group like them ToT
GFRIEND =
Rough : School
Mago : Graduation, do the party and disband :(
Jk
Even NK love their sound... Their song ie fingertip and Rough, a very different song was plagiarized by North Korean girl groups.
This song and "Time For the Moon Night" are my two most favorite GFriend songs. Eunha's high notes at the end still give me chills two years later.
Samw
Same
Sunrise is a masterpiece, is a really beautiful song and choreography is a 10/10.
More Gfriend reactions please.
Don't forget the MV and vocals
@@summer5144
Yes, all in Sunrise is perfect.
Bruh, it's true. The choreography looks simple and easy, but when you try doing it. It's hard to control your body to be like how graceful their movements are.
Random fun fact: Lil Uzi Vert is also a Buddy and has a tattoo of their logo on his arm.
The tattoo is cap. Its just buddy edit it, and we believe it lmfao
do not summon that woman-beater into the gfriend discourse 💀
The queens of synchronization continue to amaze me. Sad that my ULT group is gone
RECOMMENDATION IS NOT ENOUGH BUT YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY WATCH LOVE WHISPER AND FINGERTIP, THERE'S A LOT OF VARIETY, IN THE DANCE, LOVE WHISPER HAS A LOT OF FOOTWORKS, WHILE FINGERTIP HAS A LOT OF TUTTING, PEACE
Up✨

YES
This is the Gfriend sound, orchestral pop! Gfriend's signature sound!!! From 2015-2020 (Crossroads) they released orchestral songs mostly on season of Gfriend aka winter!
Don't wanna take other groups up, but in my country, people who know only BLACKPINK and TWICE say GFRIEND has no upbeat music and boring concept and sleepy music. I just realize they have no aesthetic, no musician eye. Just have a joy with upbeat heartbreak and lollipop songs.
I really appreciate that we also get a dance practice react cuz, in GFRIEND's case, their older mvs always tell a story, it's v cinematic/drama-like (which they deliver with such greatness) but they also have really amazing choreos that aren't shown to the fullest. they do it all, it's so pleasing to watch both sides
GFRIEND
6 MAIN VOCALS
6 MAIN DANCERS
6 VISUALS
6 BEAGLE GIRLS
6 ANGELS
6 GODDESSES
6 LEGENDS
GFRIEND WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBER AS ONE OF THE BEST GIRLS GROUP IN K-POP AND WILL ALWAYS BE LOVED BY BUDDIES. BUDDY WILL LOVE AND SUPPORT OUR GIRLS FOREVER AND PRAYING FOR A REUNION ONE DAY.
Again, GFRIEND's choreographies are very lyrical. Like in 10:07 & 10:47 "getting closer (gakkaweojyeo, 가까워져)" and they get closer. In 10:51 after "the farther it gets (meoreojigo isseo, 멀어지고 있어) and they get farther (full lyrics "the more I get closer, the farther it gets"). 10:55 "I'm in fear" (geobi naseo naseo, 겁이 나서 나서) and their hands on their head like in fear. Just few examples...of course there are more if I try to point the whole song. The more I understand Korean, the more I feel amazed seeing Gfriend's song and choreography.
Gfriend's dance is quite lyrical.
I miss them so much jdjdjxbs idk if u know but Sunrise is a sequel of Time For The Moon Night as a part of their storyline (correct me if I'm wrong)
Gfriend will never disappoint you with their Music. (Only if you really know who Gfriend is) They're the group that get a lot of hate for who they really are. But... They'll never change the fact that The G for Gfriend means God.
Sunrise is one of the most vocally active tt of all. Every member has a high note.
Except Sowon
@@summer5144 she too! + she shows more vocals in album.
Yess it's so good I saw it on Labyrinth for the first time and I was like WTF EVERY MEMBER HAS HIGH NOTES 😱
Gfriend is something else
You should check out some of their variety show- as a muti-stan, ive watched alot of group and gfriend are probably one of the chaotic group. the member are super funny, loud, they care for each other, not your typical shy girl group. they really dont care for their image, i think thats why people call them "beagle friend". I know you only check out dance and mv, but i think you should start checking their personality..(if you have the time)
True TwT
I miss gfriendbuddy,i will remember forever,oh so sad,thank reack
Sunrise is my most favorite era. You can se their Sun Choreos in the beginning. The Sun Ray and the Sun Blaze is so powerful.. i very like it. Those arms that sways upward and sidewards? when the camera is on their top, you will see it literally. GFRIEND the best
This is the reason why GFriend has such a hard time doing random dances. They have too many formations and it's confusing
Since we're reminiscing Gfriend's bop songs and dance prowess...
Please react to their 2x speed dance. They are known for hitting all the stops with 2x speed. Stamina Queens.
The end of Sunrise is one of my goosebump songs. Every time.
Love whisper and glass bead, Navillera and fingertip,time for moon night . these all so good song
I miss gfriend so much ☹️
This actually continuation of time for the moon night
One thing I enjoy your reaction video on Gfriend is your focus both on the music and the choreography. "Sunrise", along with "Crossroads", and as well as "Time For the Moon Night" (don't think you have reacted to this yet), formed Gfriend's "Passionate Melancholy" era. They share the same composer and producer and are probably the most representative songs of Gfriend's signature sound of orchestral pop. You will find string dominated melodies that exhibits the sense of drama and sentimentality. While many of Gfriend's songs showcase their vocal, particularly Yuju's. "Sunrise" is often remembered as their vocal feast as other members pitched with high notes as the song progresses towards its epic ending.
Btw, the starting formation shows a "Sun" from the aerial view. It can be seen on a number of their music show performances. Also Gfriend danced in a circle on several occasions very much portraying the radiating sun, reflecting the theme of sunrise. As noted, I too enjoy watching Gfriend's back-slide and spin in their dance. This is something very particular to Gfriend.
Beware that "Sunrise" is a sequel to "Time For the Moon Night". Thanks for continuing the exploration of Gfriend's discography.
There is a lot of symbolism in this video, which tells the story of GFriend, that runs through almost all their MVs. In particular, the song 'Sunrise' is a continuation of song 'TFTMN' (Time for the Moon Night). To retell all the moments and history is too long, just one example. 2:25 - 5.30 on the clock - time for rising Sun (in the original the song is called 해야 - 'Sun') and at the same time Eunha's birthday (May 30), which the girls celebrate. But after the sunrise she disappears according to the general storyline.
By the way, on your wall you have GFriend logo from "Time for Us" album, where the title track is 'Sunrise'. (GFriend logo changed with the release of each album.)
Sunrise is one of gfriend's masterpiece, thank you so much ❤️
She said "Gfriend music the ones I heard so far give lots of varieties" .. She speaks the truth and needs to be louder coz antis keep saying "Gfriend music sounds the same" or maybe they're deaf (??) hshshshsh
Gfriend is my 1st ever GG for 3rd generation & it'll forever will be. I missed them so much that I couldn't not express it with words. Seeing your reaction towards them makes me reminisce them in a good way (not hurtful because sometimes it is) as I'm proud to be a Buddy. Thank you. Will be always looking forward for your reaction on them. ❤
GFRIEND’s discography always had some song that fit your daily live mood/routine. That’s why i’m a Buddy until now and forever:)
Sunrise is Masterpiece
Gfriend's music: "variety".
Finally gfriend again 😍
I just love how Sunrise is such an unpredictable song. I am not a musician but I enjoyed it very much especially how it intensifies as it's nearing the end
Love whisper and fingertip by gfriend. Thankyou.
I love Gfriend ❤️
the song the choreo the mv and the girls, the most stunning entertainment ever
Miss them:(
THIS. EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS REACTION. Buddies appreciate you so much, thank you for reacting to our girls beyond their d-word T_T I’ve watched their Sunrise mv and dp countless times but from watching your reaction that excitement from my first time ever watching it came back to me. You also picked up on so many of the details, which is awesome! You’re an amazing reactor ♡
U shoulddd watchh time for the moon night! underrated bop
Underrated? 'Time for the Moon Night' has 10 wins on Music Shows.
It's not underrated lol almost all south koreans know that song
omg. I miss sunrise era. they are so more beautiful like a princess.... thank you for reaction my favourite song!!!
Thank you for still reacting to Gfriend ^^
Other kpop stans keep on saying that Gfriend's songs all sound the same (as a drag) but i believe that they just haven't heard all. You're right that their songs have a lot of variety, you can choose depending on your mood. I appreciate that you appreciate Gfriend just like Buddys. You are one of the two reactors I always look forward to for reacting to Gfriend despite them not being an active group anymore. I hope you still continue to react to them. 💕
By the way, their Japanese discography is also top tier 👌
Vocal explosion! Love Sunrise so mucchh
OMG OMG OMG YES
Tftm and sunrise my favorit gfriend song 🥰
PLEASE REACT MORE GFRIEND PLS😭😭😭😭
Gfriend always deserved more recognition. 😔
Been waiting for this yesterday coz it's friday here yesterday lol
GFRIEND songs fit your moods that's why I love their songs
Yey, Gfriend 🤩
GODFRIEND always in my heart. Best Kpop Girl Group EVER !
Thank you so much for reviewing this one. It brings us back to those happy memories.
This makes me miss them a lot :”
In addition to the every title song, I think dance of "flower garden" and "only 1" are worth to check too.
Thank you for reacting 🥰
Yes! Thank you for your continuing your GFRIEND journey hoping for your next MV reaction of Gfriend.I really miss them!
i still get chills while watching the mv despite the amount of times i watched it :')
Can't wait for more Gfriend content Thina . Love ya 💜 and hopefully you feel a lot better
The ending pose does match the beginning, and along with the music and lyrics, adds a sense of doomed struggle. It brings to mind a comment by Spider Robinson (probably quoting someone else) that dance is a fight against gravity, and for most of us, gravity is fated to win.
My mornings are much like this, albeit with far less drama.😴🥱😴
Love Whisper also ends as it begins, but I don't think it has any particular significance; it's just a cute place to stop.
I was waiting for this moment a long time ago, #GFRIEND #QUEENS son las mejoressss
i love gfriend
THANK YOU!! AND I HOPE YOU ARE DOING GREAT! 😍
I've been waiting for this. Thanks 😁
Epic song
They perfected this choreo in just 2 days. Queen things.
I'd recommend the m countdown 190117 performance for an overhead shot and decent fanchant.
I love the highnote of yuju 、eunha 、sinb 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😍
I really love your gfriend reaction.
Thank you for keeping remembering them.
This one is one of my favourite. Miss them
I WATCH THINA TOO MUCH TO THE POINT THAT I ALREADY MEMORIZED HER INTRO
this song is so magical and amazing and beautiful and whimsical and haunted and gorgeous and i love it so so so so so so so so so so much
I hope you check Love Whisper and Mago dance practice (eye mask ver.)too. The dancing is crazy. The formation is unique. Hope you will see this
No one does it like Gfriend
Hi! Hope your fine now.
Edit: Japanese ver is released in the same month
It looks even more beautiful and cooler in aerial view, you should check it out in the future
Gfriend love whisper
10:14 GFRIEND CAN DO THIS IN EVERY PERFORMANCE THEY HAVE,, QUEENS

Gfriend❤❤ miss them.
my fave song next to rough. I miss them so much :(
same :(
I think the lift ends too quickly and should be held for a beat or two.
The way she lands, heel-first, is also hazardous in high heels.
Gfriend!!!!! So happy you’re still reacting to them
HYBE: We disbanded Gfriend cuz they were too much groups, and we need to make space for our new girl group
Us: YOU LITERALLY HAVE 1 GIRL GROUP
Hybes being selfish
Be careful with the label stans 🤫
@@summer5144 HAHAHA right
