They have this supreme confidence of a veteran group, especially in their live performances at award shows. They sing 100% live complete with the breathing on the mics, their voice peaking but that's what makes it so good!
They are the real queen of 5th gen with great music. These girls really need an appreciation for their talent, Song, music, dance, concept, creativity, storyline, comfortable at their own part of the song etc. They have their own style and vibes. And this is what I call talent. There’s no show up, just them from small company and doing their best. I know international fans are already their fans, I just hope kntz would recognise them asap.
They are such great live performers too. I think you mentioned it in the previous marathon, but they are a bit more mature than a lot of their peers, and they've definitely got more of an r&b/hip-hop sound than the current kpop groups do too.
Kiss of Life is considered one of the first group in the fifth generation. Also i am like you i started to listen to K-pop since first generation with BoA in 2003 and that was and still is a wild journey. I had the chance to follow Kiss of Life since their debut and i felt in love at first listen, their vibe and energy remind me so much of second generation group like 2NE1, some say some Mamamoo vide too and i agree with that too. They are that kind of group that is so talented and so unique that they are not following trend they ARE the new trend. Kiss of Life or KIOF for short is a group to really check it out, follow and suport. For me they are the leader and number one group of the fifth generation and i'm certain that they will make history in K-pop and become one of the GOAT. Oh, and if you officially decide to join the fandom, we are called 'Kissy', also little scoop we will have our lightstick soon this year.
KIOF and their team know what they want + what works for them. That, and the fact that the girls are so involved with their work, results in the most beautiful masterpieces ever. ❤🔥
I honestly think that Kiss of Life is the 5th Gen's answer to (G)I-DLE. There are a number of parallels I'm sure we all can draw from them, but I think the chief component that really is stressed in both groups is showcasing individuality and not being ashamed of who you are. I know (G)I-DLE is still around and going strong, but I feel if there ever was a spiritual little sister to them, it's Kiss of Life.
If you haven't already seen it you should watch their live performance of Bad News from last years MMA's they blew the roof off. Easily the best performance of the show.
KIOF is one of the unique kpop groups. A refresher from all these copy paste trends cycle that all good at first but became boring lately. dunno why KIOF is being slept on when they literally showed everyone that they got what stans want. i prefer KIOF's concept and sound than that ygngg
When I first saw KIOF they reminded me of G-IDLE which is unique and different from Kpop in general and they don't come from a big agency, hopefully KIOF can get bigger attention and be successful with their own hard work, If you like other unique girl groups, I recommend XG or Young Posse, they are also different from Kpop girl groups in general and their genre is based on RnB and Hip Hop.
Hi Thina, first of all it is so nice to have you back reacting and I’m so proud of you for coming back strong. Hope that all of your hardship has at least slowed down over the time you have taken some time off for yourself. KIOF (Kiss of Life) has been a group that I have been really invested in since their debut and I have fallen in love with the so hard, to the point where I consider them one of my ult groups that I stan. I really like Belle and if you keep on going she’ll be considered one of the best vocalists in kpop, atm she’s one of the best of the 5th gen if that the best. It is a group where I’m genuinely interested in each and every member, I find them all really talented, interesting and great fun. I really love KIOF and I really love you Thina, fellow Kissy’s hello, I’m so proud of our girls and Thina I’m so glad that you are reacting to them and enjoying their work. I always love and appreciate your reactions and I value your thoughts and opinions a lot. Sending lots of love, support and positivity from Sweden 🇸🇪♥️
We are actually already in 5th gen since around mid 2023 . (KIOF is already 5th gen along with for example BABYMONSTER , Unis , I’ll it , Zerobaseone )
I dont understand why still so many people sleeping on them. Literally it dosent get better than this. ( Especially in the RnB sound, like the only other groups out there doing RnB on THAT level are Red Velvet and XG and that's saying alot. ) If Belle isn't mentioned in your discussions about best vocalists, y'all are LYING.
You know what's sad is that today's fandom prefers groups that are full of visuals, they no longer care about vocal quality or other skills, especially if the girl group comes from a big agency, not to mention that big agencies can do sajaegi/payola to their idols. Kpop is getting more and more crap nowadays.
@@rachmatmulia5212 I agree but I think its more of hit songs versus popularity. Like fifty fifty blew up not because of their talent or popularity but because of their song. I think the same can be said about a lot of other groups. There are a lot of talented idols but their music can be a big factor for their popularity. KIOF is getting more popular and sugarcoat went viral cause its such a good song. KIOF is definitely only going to get better and more popular.
I have been waiting for FOREVER for your reaction to these girls! Thank you so much for posting even though life for you is pretty chaotic right now ❤ Really appreciate the time you take to take your time to really enjoy all these groups. Love you so much!
Kiss Of Life Midas Touch Nothing Are both very good releases After Bad News and Nobody Knows but I'm really looking at the choreography and outfits everyone wearing
The midas touch is a story of a king who was blessed by a greek god that every thing he touches turns into gold That peacock thing points goddes hera. Nattys spider thing reminds me of the story where athena turned a girl into spider Snakes and that guy turning into stone is obviously medusa Thats my knowledge in geeek mythology
I am pretty sure Julie's scenes with heart cutouts are referencing Aphrodite goddess of love and Hanuel is medusa, Belle is Hera and Natty is Arachne a woman turned into a spider (when she boasted her waving was more impressive than Athena's)
Hi Thina👋, so happy to see you're back! I really appreciate you taking the time to be present for the KIOF reactions especially when life is life-ing. I love watching your reactions, you always pickup on things I would never get. If you ever need more content and have some time on your hands, their dance practices and cover dances are worth checking out (they covered 'Freak Me', 'Freaky Deaky', and relay dance Exo 'The Eve')😊
You were not too wrong though. Most of Europe, including Ancient Greek where it originated, has the pronunciation of Midas similar to your first one (and Adidas being German, that tracks too). English warped it to the pronunciation you were corrected to, and then the Asian languages like Korean and Japanese took it from English. And it totes was a curse. Midas was a greedy man who wished everything he touched to turn to gold. Greek gods being the cruel pranksters granted him his wish. He was at first very happy, but that quickly changed when he found his food and wine turning to gold as they touched his lips, and his loved ones turning to golden statues when he sought comfort.
The only thing I don’t get about Midas Touch is the name lol. Because yes, Midas was “blessed” (cursed) by the gods to turn anything he touched into gold. But the girls aren’t turning the men into gold statues, they’re turning them into marble statues which is Medusa’s purview, not Midas’. I imagine there’s a reason for that? But the entire MV is such good early 2000s vibes.
I think they combine Midas and Medusa together since we saw a lot of snakes and Medusa scenes in this MV. Plus the man was turned into stone by touching, not by looking.
Hi Thina! I haven't seen so I guess you haven't filmed reaction to TripleS, that's a somewhat new group and they have quite nice music too. I think you might like them!! Love you reactions and sorry for my english lmao
Considering you had a smarty comment from an earlier reaction of mine telling me that you heard me asking if I can hear the vocals, I'm pretty damn sure that you have a speck of an answer in your mind that YOU'RE the one I'm talking to.😁
@@ogkpopstan I also praised you in one of your videos, because you did most of your talking (to me?, sweet) while the mv was paused. As a peace offering, I'd like to point you in the direction of BADVILLAIN, and their pre-debut songs, " +82" and "Hurricane". These girls dance and rap perfectly!! Please don't be mad at me. Sorry for being a smartass. I do enjoy your reactions 98% of the time.
Really, I imagine winning a lottery would be the Universe balancing things out, after all the cr*p life has thrown at you so far. (Sorry, just my opinionative/empathic/protective streak showing.)
Who "Kissy"here 👍🏻
MEEEE
Here I am ! 🖐
I'm here guys
❤
i am!
They have this supreme confidence of a veteran group, especially in their live performances at award shows. They sing 100% live complete with the breathing on the mics, their voice peaking but that's what makes it so good!
Kiof is group with no skip song because all the songs are insane
They are criminally underrated imo, they have a mature concept and are very talented, so I am just waiting for them to blow up in popularity
The person with the camera at the end of nobody knows was a witness to natty pushing the guy out the window. He had her recorded.
11:27 here

facts, the gorup is a powerhouse

Kiss of Life and XG are untouchable right now! I want to hear Belle, Chisa, and Juria collaborate!
👄 🐺
Both are my fav too
😮 ooh.. that sounds awesome.
now I want that collab too 😊
Literally my two favorite groups right now ❤
My 2 main groups as of now 👄🐺
Nayeon's got your back! Also the episode of KStarNextDoor they did with Nmixx is a lot of fun.
kiss of life's music is so refreshing! they're really fulfilling their concept of "letting you breathe/giving life to kpop"

16:58 Nothing
23:37 Midas Touch
thank u so much!
Thank you I was looking for a comment like that ❤❤❤
Sorry I'm late - love Kiss of Life. They are a breath of fresh air. And they still don't feel like rookies...
KIOF and their team know what they want + what works for them. That, and the fact that the girls are so involved with their work, results in the most beautiful masterpieces ever. ❤🔥

To put it shortly, I take a look at them and stay assured that the future of gg music is in good hands. LOOK AT THEM!
If you haven't already seen it you should watch their live performance of Bad News from last years MMA's they blew the roof off. Easily the best performance of the show.
The choreography for nobody knows is so good too
New jeans and kiss of life, babymonster was absolutely my favorites k pop girl groups ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Oh how long I have waited for thisss

@@rachmatmulia5212 Their CEO is the former CUBE CEO who debut IDLE.
@@syafiqaszamin6411 Oh I see, it's only fitting that I see the similarities between KIOF and G-IDLE, not musically what I mean here but their vibe.
@@syafiqaszamin6411 damn.. I didn't know that.
@@rachmatmulia5212 yup. i know xg and yp. i love them sooo much! wish these kind of groups keeps coming. badvillain is coming too.

They're so freaking good and their live vocals are incredible

Let's go KIOF!

Watch the dance practice of nobody knows, that choreography slayed everyone with how amazing it was.
🔥 🔥 fire

I love them
I get teary eyed on Thina's reaction on Julie's rap and vocals on Nothing. Coz SAME!!! (tho my reaction is more dramatic)
Next triples marathon...lets go..❤

Perfeitassss
Midas Touch is the vibe of early Britney Spears.I love it
is there gonna be a marathon for zb1 too?? anyways love ur vids
i miss youuuu
🔥🔥🔥
Tina you have to react to the dance practice videos for bad news, nobody knows, and midas touch! I want to know your thoughts.
The only thing I don’t get about Midas Touch is the name lol. Because yes, Midas was “blessed” (cursed) by the gods to turn anything he touched into gold. But the girls aren’t turning the men into gold statues, they’re turning them into marble statues which is Medusa’s purview, not Midas’. I imagine there’s a reason for that?

I think they combine Midas and Medusa together since we saw a lot of snakes and Medusa scenes in this MV.
Plus the man was turned into stone by touching, not by looking.
Maybe because Medusa's ability to turn people to stone is a curse/blessing by a god (athena)
You are brave doing a marathon of Kiss of Life... I couldnt handle myself they are way too seductive hahah
🔥 👑 🛐
Girl group underated kOF
