Yoon wrote this song back in 2015-2016 era..which was a very uncertain and dark time in WINNER’s music journey. After such a successful debut and everybody anticipating their comeback and new music in 2015. YGE decided to send WINNER..at the height of their popularity to Japan for a good chunk of 2015. They also participated in the YG family concert tour, but they never had another comeback, album, or was seen in any variety shows. Their popularity did fizzle out a little bit in SKOREA and people moved on supporting other groups. That was one of the huge reason Yoon had anxiety and even dipped into depression at some point. He was always anxious and worried about WINNER’s relevancy and when they will get to have another comeback. The life expectancy for a kpop idol group is not that long and Yoon didn’t want to be one of those groups that fizzles out. He had to deal with those thoughts while trying to reassure and cheer up his members too since he is the leader. In fact, WINNER members all admitted that they all fell into some kind of depression and anxiety during that time. They were scared that their passion and music as WINNER would be taken away from them. Plus the building pressure to have a successful comeback after a successful debut. Remember most WINNER members composes songs and at that time Yoon, Mino, and their former member Taehyun were the main 3 composers. Then in 2016, they finally had a comeback and it will be the kind where they would release a single and mini album throughout the year. It was called WINNER’s EXIT SERIES, they prepared a lot for it and had plans of many releases. They even shot their teasers and had their album photo shoot in London/Europe. They were excited and they got on variety shows and had their own reality show called, HALF-MOON FRIENDS where they opened up a daycare for 15 days. But after the comeback it was apparent that their original maknae/main vocalist/1/3 of composer line Taehyun wasn’t feeling good mentally. YGE announced that Taehyun would be a little hiatus to take care of his mental health. Ultimately, Taehyun decided it would be best for not only himself..but for WINNER that he will leave the group and YGE. He was not in a good mental state and he felt he’s holding back the other members from continuing their plans/promises for their comebacks for that year. He also felt that his musical style was going in a different direction than of WINNER and he wanted to go on a different path. Taehyun and WINNER even Yang Hyunsuk are still in good terms. WINNER members wanted Taehyun to get better and find treatment, they also didn’t want to hold him back if he was felt uncomfortable or couldn’t deal with idol life. After that there was A LOT of questions and neitzens and kpop fans “haters” were saying WINNER should just disband..their music wouldn’t be the same without Taehyun. Which is funny cuz WINNER still has a whole Kang Seung Yoon, Mino, and Hoony that all can compose great songs. Yoon’s vocals are insane and Jinwoo has such a pretty and versatile voice too. Yeah WOT5 was amazing and magical.. they were special, but it’s not right to bring down the remaining members just cuz one talented member left. There’s still 4 talented and capable members who can deliver amazing music too. But yes there was uncertainty and just like that.. WINNER’s 2016 fizzled out again..they couldn’t continue doing their EXIT series without Taehyun..so everything was scrapped. Again WINNER went on a small hiatus trying to figure out what their next step is as a 4 member group. At moments like this, you’d think Yoon would completely break down.. BUT HE DIDN’T... he stayed optimistic and tried to find a new and improved version of WINNER aka WOT4. That’s why QUEEN REALLY REALLY and QUEEN FOOL... 2 songs that Yoon composed that was totally unexpected, but are songs that are well loved WOT4 comeback in 2017 was EPIC and REALLY REALLY was THAT SONG!! Such a shame it was robbed for SOTY. But yes... I love how in this MV you see Yoon’s remember his younger self and I believe we all want to go back to the time when we’re kids and had no worries. The REAL WORLD and being adult can be so tiring and heartbreaking at the same time. But I also believe this is KANG SEUNG YOON reconnecting with his inner child or his younger self. You see how in the end the PRESENT DAY YOON and CHILD YOON became one on that stage. Yoon regained the passion he had back when he was younger. He let go of all the expectations and pressure of the world... even his anxieties and expectations of himself.. he finally let it go and is now just embracing life as it is.. and going about his life and career/music with the same passion and joy as he did when he was a kid. He remembers why he’s there in the first place.. he loves music.. he loves performing...he wants to write songs that impact and inspire his fans or listeners. THIS MV was the transformation and re-introduction of KANG SEUNG YOON... who still is that little kid with big dreams that he still wants to fulfill. He will always be learning, growing, and improving to become a better person with the same passion/love as he did when he was younger.
What a beautiful reflection of Seungyoon’s struggles and WINNERS value as a group. I only discovered them early 2021 and Seungyoon is now on my playlist. He is by far such a talented young man and I am so impressed with him more because of your story. Thank you
The message of this song is so beautiful. I cried. Multiple times. It felt comforting and heartbreaking at the same time. After listening to it I feel like when I’ve just cried my eyes out: I’m tired, relieved, comforted.., but still sad. I love the _richness_ Seung Yoon’s voice has. On the MV. It’s genius. I love how it goes backwards, all the way to when he was a child. It really conveys the message of the song super well. Just wanted to add. This is Seung Yoon’s first full album and it is lovely 🥰. There are 13 songs and he wrote all of them. Definitely recommend giving it a listen some time. ^^ People were honestly expecting a solo a lot earlier. But I’m glad he took his time and did what _he wanted_ and made his choices with not only himself but his team in mind. Props to our Amazing Vocal Legend Genius Maknae Composer Leader Seung Yoon for creating such an awesome freaking album and MV 👏🏼
I don’t care if you were late. You have the best reaction to this song thus far. Thank you for taking this song and the lyrics to another level with connecting it to what goes around it the world and what people experienced. This song is so real and has so much emotions in it and your reaction from someone who only knows Kang Seungyoon from the masked singer really explained the song well. I really wish that more people pick this song up to listen to, because it’s a rare gem in KPop. No one does this style because only Yoon does this. That’s why he and WINNER does fit in KPop. Their music is beyond trendy KPop trends. You can always go back to their music years after and still love them. Their music may not be the current trend, but they last and they heal people who listens to them for the better to move on in life.
Just some stuff about seungyoon to understand the song better He’s been in the industry for 11 years now, he started very young and the burnout and burden this song talks about is actually not something he’s feeling just now but how he’s felt his whole career, specially since he was in winner (2014). He’s the youngest member but he’s also the leader and the main composer since 2017. Winner went through so much shit in their career, being mistreated by their company they had to find contacts and friends in the industry to be able to promote themselves and compensate for all the setbacks the company provoked. They had more hiatus time than promotion time during their first 3 years (with only two releases) and one member left. As the leader Seungyoon was the one that felt all of this the most and he actually first started writing this song in 2015 (a year when they didn’t release anything despite the huge success of their debut), and the scene where he’s forcing himself to smile shows 2014 in the calendar and he’s wearing the clothes of his debut. Apart from the hardships of the group he was also an actor and he was known for his singing as a soloist too, he could’ve focused on that and become really successful but he decided to focus on winner, he gave up so much for them because they love each other like family but there’s been many times where the pressure and expectations felt like too much. But now he’s talked about how he’s actually getting better at coping, and he’s doing music for himself and his fans, for all of us to enjoy, not for numbers and awards, he just wants to make something meaningful that he’s satisfied with and that we can love.
Seungyoon wrote this song in 2015. That was the hardest time for Winner. The scene where he shows us his smile face in front of the mirror, and the clothes he wear, that was Winner debut era.
This song is so beautiful that it took me to Yoon's journey in more than 3mins. You are so right when you said that it is difficult to make your passion into a career. I believe the MV depicted that feeling when he was so passionate about music and all of a sudden felt the pressure when he became the youngest and the leader at the same time and then the group had a hiatus. The song and the mv are sad and painful but yet uplifting and inspirational with the message that it tries to convey. That the world is already tough. We don't need to be hard on ourselves because we are only human, we make mistakes and we are not expected to do things perfectly. Sometimes we wish to be a child who has fewer worries. We are all once a child and we can still be like a child who continues to grow, learn and dream.
When he forced that smile on his face, I cried. He's been through a lot, and I'm happy he finally got to release his album. Thank you for reacting to this beautiful MV.
WOW! Your interpretation and understanding of the MV is just amazing. And the take on turning passion into work, wow again, I never thought about it like that, you gave me a totally new take on that. And WINNER debuted in August 2014, that's one of the outfits of their debut album S/S 2014. The last clip was of him auditioning for Superstar K, a survival competition, that's how he came into spotlight.
Fun Fact:when YOON was hitting those high notes towads the last chorus.. TREASURE HYUNSUK, JIHOON, YEDAM & JEONGWOO was doing the backup vocals.. 😀 Yoon said it in his interview.. :)
the line with: "the alcohol is still bitter to me" you can see it different with your knowledge from Itaewon Class. It's the taste of life. does it taste bitter or sweet.. he's still in the bitter times :( and yes. 아이 is child. my brain was exploding while reading the lyrics T.T

I am finally your subscriber!!! Most of Inner Circle (fandom name) were literally crying after we watched and listen to this song. It's full of emotions where all young adult or adults in general can relate too. Also, Yoon and the fans has been patiently waiting for 8 years for him to release his first SOLO album and then here we are. It may be too much to ask, but we would suggest you to listen to the whole album whenever you wanted too. All tracks are so good in all aspects. NO SKIP SONGS. That's a promise. Looking forward reacting to Yoon's solo and WINNER songs and how good they are
I'm binge watching your reactions for days now 😁 thank you for reacting to our baby seungyoon and understanding this masterpiece. I really recommend you to watch his song "365", there is a band version of it so that you could listen to his amazing live vocal. "365" is a song dedicated to his late father who left him and his mother when he was still a child, and as I know, they didn't have any interaction since then. Till his father passed away without him knowing. It is a very personal song for seungyoon 😭💙
Hey, I'm new here (I was seeing Yoon's solo and this video was suggested) and I just wanted to say that really liked your vibe and everything. Your words were interesting to hear, I also loved the way you expressed about Yoon's work, and the audiovisual identity of your channel and the details here and there in your videos are something really pleasant as well. I can see your work and effort, so thanks for sharing that. Ps. And I agree with u about work and dreams. I studied audiovisual comunication as a major, and then I went to another country to study cinematography. I thought that would make me happy and would give me a sense of acomplishment, but it turned out that it wasn't the case. I just felt momentary excitement and my ego and anxiety was at the highest ever, lol (not because of my work, but because two thousand things that get in the way with my work). Anyway, I'm still trying to figure it out what's going on with my life but I'm in a turmoil, so Yoon's song kinda opened a window to me. As an IC I'm glad that others connected with the song too. Tnks for your reaction (again, lol). Yoon and WINNER deserve more attention. 💙
I’m honestly grateful to hear that my words helped you understand what it was you were feeling within yourself. Forever humbled for you to have shared that with me, thank you for that as well as your kind words! ❤️
thank you so much for your reaction Wilson, I always love when you reacts to Winner / their members. Hope you can always support them and me here is still waiting for your other reactions to Winner songs....
I’ve been wanting for thiiisss 😭😭😭 thank you for going deep with lyrics as usual. the reaction of the ending chorus is precious ✨✨✨ will share it to twitter so many will watch this too! Thank you!
Yo! I didn't expect you to react to this right away, I just requested this yesterday lol. I am finally your subscriber!!! Thank you so much and I'm am glad that you liked it and even added them on your faves too. Fun fact: - Yoon composed, produced and wrote 12 tracks on this album then manages to arrange it too. That's how talented and insanely great he is. - The Mino cameo was a surprise as well (the passing of microphone). During Mino's Runaway promotion, he asked Yoon to be part of it and had a short cameo and now, you see that he's in it on Yoon's MV too. How adorable they are. - There were speculations about Mino passing the microphone. First, i's like turning him over to shine on his own as a solo artist and second, on WIN Era, Mino was supposed to be the leader of WINNER but because he got inured, it was passed to Yoon who was very young at that time. - The part when Yoon tried to smile at the mirror and calendar was shown was the time they debuted as a boy group. Plus, he wore the same outfit too. Feels nostalgic. - He wrote the song since 2015 (this was the toughest and hardest time they had as a group - one member left and other stuff as well). - Also, an interesting fact: the shot when he was in an empty auditorium was very sentimental since it was the stage where they were named WINNER as a group (2014). The director didn't know about it - just pure coincidence. - The last part is where you see him on his 15-16 teenage years where he auditioned in a Singing Competition Super Star K2. - Overall it's a Masterpiece. Period. **cries in InnerCircle* TTATT
I agree with you 100%!! A lot of people told me that I’m lucky to be able to study what I’m passionate about (designing clothes). But now, a lot of the time, all i’m feeling is just pressure and it’s just not fun to design anymore
'How can I be perfect at everything?' He constantly deals with negative comments since his teenage years, before he even debuted as a singer under YGE. And even worse now, haters like to say mean things to him especially about his music just because he likes to experiment with his music instead of constantly putting out heavy addictive EDM music 😅 But he keeps on going and do things that he love and I respect him for that. It's not easy to stand your ground when people constantly telling you otherwise.
I really appreciate the way you focus on the lyrics as well as music. Even though you are not well aware of Korean words or the background of Yoon/Winner, you seem to understand very well the concept he tried to express and convey. It's impressive to me that you recognize the uniqe situation in which K pop idols struggle, sadly to say. Yoon and his team Winner are very versatile and excellent musicians, so please don't let their other beautiful songs pass by without being listened to by you~Thank you so much for your reaction!!
His song so Good, the lyrics is relatable.. he speak through my heart. He wrote this song when he was 21, he is great composer👍. I love the melody, the chorus so addicted. Love his Amazing Voice too. I feel comforted. Thank you for reacting and review Kang Seung Yoon "IYAH"..💙
Hi, guys! Please help us stream IYAH! we really wanted to give Yoon his 1st WIN for this. Uri leader has always been working hard for WINNER, so hopefully we can also give him the appreciation and praises as a solo artists! Thank you!!!!
i don't request for another reaction video but if you have some spare time, please take a listen to his whole album PAGE too, the album that he put all his heart and soul for 8 years to create it and surely it wont make u disappoint, thank you ^^
Hope you get to listen to his whole album coz all the songs are amazing! It’s a no skip album! Well...he has a song entitled SKIP...but you know what I mean 😆
iyahiyahi in korean means a child and towards the end of the mv where you hear a group of people singing...that is TREASURE members Hyunsuk, Jihoon, Yedam and Jeongwoo
Thank you for this reaction and this is my first time watching your reaction vid but I already love the way you react, you explained your opinion right on the spot of every lyrics that caught your attention. In that way i feel that you want to understand the meaning of the song rather than focusing on mv.
when I see Winner now is very advanced, but if you look at their career path in a song that is very sad, it gives me the answer that they started their career hard first.
Thank you! Love this song not a typical kpop song just sounds like a artist. YOON wrote and composed the whole album. Please check out his album it’s heaps good especially better with MINO
And so you know who did the voice in the last chorus? They are Seung Yoon's younger siblings, Treasure and the female YG trainees who are rumored to be debuting as well
nooooo never turn your passion into your career!! once your passion turns into your career, you will start to hate it! and it is tougher to deal with when you start hating your passion, it’s more depressing when your passion lets you down or you let it down
hi thank u so much for ur reaction, always love ur reaction, can u please react to 365 live from seung yoon in mdromeda, i promise u wont regret it. again, thank u so much for ur reaction
Iyah has a double meaning, it can mean baby but it also means "ouchie"...it's what Koreans say instead of "ouch". Also, if you want to see how this song affected people, read the comments under neath.
Idols right now are pressured to release content/songs/mv because of the fans. Often they forget that this idols are exhausted to the point that they lost their self in the process.
Wait what no. I think Aiya means child. 아이 Means child and Korean tend to add 야 (ya) (like: Jinwoo-ya or Mino-ya) in the end of name or when they call someone. So yeah, Aisyah means child.
I know you mostly focus on kpop but could you do a reaction to 'Montero (call me by your name)' by Lil Nas X? Not only is the song amazing but the mv has a lot of breathtaking visuals I think you would like and a lot of meaning in general and I would love to hear you analysing it I hope you don't mind me asking 🙇

But yes... I love how in this MV you see Yoon’s
remember his younger self and I believe we all want to go back to the time when we’re kids and had no worries. The REAL WORLD and being adult can be so tiring and heartbreaking at the same time. But I also believe this is KANG SEUNG YOON reconnecting with his inner child or his younger self. You see how in the end the PRESENT DAY YOON and CHILD YOON became one on that stage.

He will always be learning, growing, and improving to become a better person with the same passion/love as he did when he was younger.
I'm late but even Yoon should see your comment haha
What a beautiful reflection of Seungyoon’s struggles and WINNERS value as a group. I only discovered them early 2021 and Seungyoon is now on my playlist. He is by far such a talented young man and I am so impressed with him more because of your story. Thank you
MINO handing the mic to him was so IMPORTANT
Yo i just realised this.
The message of this song is so beautiful. I cried. Multiple times. It felt comforting and heartbreaking at the same time. After listening to it I feel like when I’ve just cried my eyes out: I’m tired, relieved, comforted.., but still sad.
I love the _richness_ Seung Yoon’s voice has.
On the MV. It’s genius. I love how it goes backwards, all the way to when he was a child. It really conveys the message of the song super well.
Just wanted to add. This is Seung Yoon’s first full album and it is lovely 🥰. There are 13 songs and he wrote all of them. Definitely recommend giving it a listen some time. ^^ People were honestly expecting a solo a lot earlier. But I’m glad he took his time and did what _he wanted_ and made his choices with not only himself but his team in mind.
Props to our Amazing Vocal Legend Genius Maknae Composer Leader Seung Yoon for creating such an awesome freaking album and MV 👏🏼
Please listen to the whole album on Patreon - NO SKIPS!!!! - I swear
his and wendys solos have been my favourite in 2021
I don’t care if you were late. You have the best reaction to this song thus far. Thank you for taking this song and the lyrics to another level with connecting it to what goes around it the world and what people experienced. This song is so real and has so much emotions in it and your reaction from someone who only knows Kang Seungyoon from the masked singer really explained the song well. I really wish that more people pick this song up to listen to, because it’s a rare gem in KPop. No one does this style because only Yoon does this. That’s why he and WINNER does fit in KPop. Their music is beyond trendy KPop trends. You can always go back to their music years after and still love them. Their music may not be the current trend, but they last and they heal people who listens to them for the better to move on in life.
Just some stuff about seungyoon to understand the song better
He’s been in the industry for 11 years now, he started very young and the burnout and burden this song talks about is actually not something he’s feeling just now but how he’s felt his whole career, specially since he was in winner (2014). He’s the youngest member but he’s also the leader and the main composer since 2017. Winner went through so much shit in their career, being mistreated by their company they had to find contacts and friends in the industry to be able to promote themselves and compensate for all the setbacks the company provoked. They had more hiatus time than promotion time during their first 3 years (with only two releases) and one member left. As the leader Seungyoon was the one that felt all of this the most and he actually first started writing this song in 2015 (a year when they didn’t release anything despite the huge success of their debut), and the scene where he’s forcing himself to smile shows 2014 in the calendar and he’s wearing the clothes of his debut. Apart from the hardships of the group he was also an actor and he was known for his singing as a soloist too, he could’ve focused on that and become really successful but he decided to focus on winner, he gave up so much for them because they love each other like family but there’s been many times where the pressure and expectations felt like too much.
But now he’s talked about how he’s actually getting better at coping, and he’s doing music for himself and his fans, for all of us to enjoy, not for numbers and awards, he just wants to make something meaningful that he’s satisfied with and that we can love.
I didn't think you were going to drop this one this early!!!!!!
the moment Mino hands over the microphone to Seungyun is so important 💙 from tomangаgagagaga to aiyaia
fun fact: the background vocals in the outro of the song were a few of the Treasure members!
Fun fact: he was involved in the directing of this m/v
Seungyoon wrote this song in 2015. That was the hardest time for Winner. The scene where he shows us his smile face in front of the mirror, and the clothes he wear, that was Winner debut era.
This song is so beautiful that it took me to Yoon's journey in more than 3mins. You are so right when you said that it is difficult to make your passion into a career. I believe the MV depicted that feeling when he was so passionate about music and all of a sudden felt the pressure when he became the youngest and the leader at the same time and then the group had a hiatus. The song and the mv are sad and painful but yet uplifting and inspirational with the message that it tries to convey. That the world is already tough. We don't need to be hard on ourselves because we are only human, we make mistakes and we are not expected to do things perfectly. Sometimes we wish to be a child who has fewer worries. We are all once a child and we can still be like a child who continues to grow, learn and dream.
Thank you for reacting. I really liked your opinions on this. The message of the song is very powerful.
When he forced that smile on his face, I cried. He's been through a lot, and I'm happy he finally got to release his album. Thank you for reacting to this beautiful MV.
Is so beautiful ❤
Yoon is a pure gem 💎💙
KANG SEUNGYOON COMEBACK ON MARCH 14 👌👑💙🔥
Yaass the great voice Kang Seung Yoon
WOW! Your interpretation and understanding of the MV is just amazing. And the take on turning passion into work, wow again, I never thought about it like that, you gave me a totally new take on that.
And WINNER debuted in August 2014, that's one of the outfits of their debut album S/S 2014. The last clip was of him auditioning for Superstar K, a survival competition, that's how he came into spotlight.
Thanks for reacting Kang Seungyoon - IYAH 🙏
thank u for reacting to yoon’s solo! 🤍
This song is reallyyyyyy beautiful
Fun Fact:when YOON was hitting those high notes towads the last chorus.. TREASURE HYUNSUK, JIHOON, YEDAM & JEONGWOO was doing the backup vocals.. 😀 Yoon said it in his interview.. :)
the line with: "the alcohol is still bitter to me"
you can see it different with your knowledge from Itaewon Class.
It's the taste of life. does it taste bitter or sweet.. he's still in the bitter times :(
and yes. 아이 is child. my brain was exploding while reading the lyrics T.T
Loved your reaction. Very intelligent commentary.
i really like this interpretation. im glad you liked it!

Ps. And I agree with u about work and dreams. I studied audiovisual comunication as a major, and then I went to another country to study cinematography. I thought that would make me happy and would give me a sense of acomplishment, but it turned out that it wasn't the case. I just felt momentary excitement and my ego and anxiety was at the highest ever, lol (not because of my work, but because two thousand things that get in the way with my work).
Anyway, I'm still trying to figure it out what's going on with my life but I'm in a turmoil, so Yoon's song kinda opened a window to me. As an IC I'm glad that others connected with the song too.
Tnks for your reaction (again, lol). Yoon and WINNER deserve more attention. 💙
I’m honestly grateful to hear that my words helped you understand what it was you were feeling within yourself. Forever humbled for you to have shared that with me, thank you for that as well as your kind words! ❤️
thank you for the mv reaction of kang seungyoon of winner big love for you from indonesia stay healthy be happy and have a good day🙂
WOW, right?!! Thank you for reacting.
Thank you
This is what Reaction is I love it well said
I really liked the song 😭😭
I love your discussions on Seungyoon's IYAH MV. Kindl check out his album, PAGE. You'll definitely like it! ^^
Thank you!
I really like your side notes. Totally agree with you.
The whole album is really good
Lol this was an AWESOME review! Yes, turning a passion into a career...🤷🏻♀️
I listened to this song right after my therapy 🙃 going through it right now 🚶🏽♀️
Yes iyah means child..thank u for this
Now i fully understand the meaning of it. Thank you for reacting and to all the comments that gives summaries and love for Yoon💙
thank you so much for your reaction Wilson, I always love when you reacts to Winner / their members. Hope you can always support them and me here is still waiting for your other reactions to Winner songs....
Thank you for reacting to Seungyoon's new song/mv! Loved your insights. If you have the time, I hope you listen to the whole album. :)
yes '아이'(ai) it means child, he said 'i'm still 아이야(aiya/iyah)' it means 'im still a child'.
He's an amazing singer, composer and writer. It's good to know how much transmitted his feelings in this song.
This is my favourite reaction so far! You have a wealth of vocabulary & maturity that's able to take this song in a beautiful way. Thank you for this.
I’ve been wanting for thiiisss 😭😭😭 thank you for going deep with lyrics as usual. the reaction of the ending chorus is precious ✨✨✨ will share it to twitter so many will watch this too! Thank you!
After 10 years from his first solo, he finally had his full solo album with amazing songs 🙂🤗
THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN FOR REACTING TO OUR MAKNAE LEADER
8:13 I LAUGHED SO HARD HAHAHAA THANK YOU SO MUCH, I LOVE YOUR REACTION
i listemed to his album 3-4 times, and its soooo good!!
Yo! I didn't expect you to react to this right away, I just requested this yesterday lol. I am finally your subscriber!!! Thank you so much and I'm am glad that you liked it and even added them on your faves too.
Fun fact:
- Yoon composed, produced and wrote 12 tracks on this album then manages to arrange it too. That's how talented and insanely great he is.
- The Mino cameo was a surprise as well (the passing of microphone). During Mino's Runaway promotion, he asked Yoon to be part of it and had a short cameo and now, you see that he's in it on Yoon's MV too. How adorable they are.
- There were speculations about Mino passing the microphone. First, i's like turning him over to shine on his own as a solo artist and second, on WIN Era, Mino was supposed to be the leader of WINNER but because he got inured, it was passed to Yoon who was very young at that time.
- The part when Yoon tried to smile at the mirror and calendar was shown was the time they debuted as a boy group. Plus, he wore the same outfit too. Feels nostalgic.
- He wrote the song since 2015 (this was the toughest and hardest time they had as a group - one member left and other stuff as well).
- Also, an interesting fact: the shot when he was in an empty auditorium was very sentimental since it was the stage where they were named WINNER as a group (2014). The director didn't know about it - just pure coincidence.
- The last part is where you see him on his 15-16 teenage years where he auditioned in a Singing Competition Super Star K2.
- Overall it's a Masterpiece. Period. **cries in InnerCircle* TTATT
🧡🧡🧡🧡
BAST REACTION IN THE WORLD 😭💙
💖💖💖💖💖
VOCALS :) Thank you for this! :) Watch his KOMS performance :)
I felt like u could be a great motivation speaker. Yes, u.
I agree with you 100%!! A lot of people told me that I’m lucky to be able to study what I’m passionate about (designing clothes). But now, a lot of the time, all i’m feeling is just pressure and it’s just not fun to design anymore
"Very beatiful" yes yes yes
'How can I be perfect at everything?'
He constantly deals with negative comments since his teenage years, before he even debuted as a singer under YGE. And even worse now, haters like to say mean things to him especially about his music just because he likes to experiment with his music instead of constantly putting out heavy addictive EDM music 😅
But he keeps on going and do things that he love and I respect him for that. It's not easy to stand your ground when people constantly telling you otherwise.
Rewind story of his life ❤️
thank you so much for reactine to our iyah kang seung yoon, we are a lil small fandom so this really means too much to us, thank you ♥
I really appreciate the way you focus on the lyrics as well as music. Even though you are not well aware of Korean words or the background of Yoon/Winner, you seem to understand very well the concept he tried to express and convey. It's impressive to me that you recognize the uniqe situation in which K pop idols struggle, sadly to say. Yoon and his team Winner are very versatile and excellent musicians, so please don't let their other beautiful songs pass by without being listened to by you~Thank you so much for your reaction!!
His song so Good, the lyrics is relatable.. he speak through my heart. He wrote this song when he was 21, he is great composer👍.
I love the melody, the chorus so addicted.
Love his Amazing Voice too.
I feel comforted.
Thank you for reacting and review Kang Seung Yoon "IYAH"..💙
Hi, guys! Please help us stream IYAH! we really wanted to give Yoon his 1st WIN for this. Uri leader has always been working hard for WINNER, so hopefully we can also give him the appreciation and praises as a solo artists! Thank you!!!!
i don't request for another reaction video but if you have some spare time, please take a listen to his whole album PAGE too, the album that he put all his heart and soul for 8 years to create it and surely it wont make u disappoint, thank you ^^
Love this reaction . Chevk out the whole album
🖤
Hope you get to listen to his whole album coz all the songs are amazing! It’s a no skip album! Well...he has a song entitled SKIP...but you know what I mean 😆
Been waiting for this reaction!! Thank you!!!
man i love your opinion about life
iyahiyahi in korean means a child and towards the end of the mv where you hear a group of people singing...that is TREASURE members Hyunsuk, Jihoon, Yedam and Jeongwoo
Thank you for this reaction and this is my first time watching your reaction vid but I already love the way you react, you explained your opinion right on the spot of every lyrics that caught your attention. In that way i feel that you want to understand the meaning of the song rather than focusing on mv.
And the dance practice is so lit 🤟
Thank you. I’m waiting for this.
when I see Winner now is very advanced, but if you look at their career path in a song that is very sad, it gives me the answer that they started their career hard first.
please react to seungyoon moreeee
Thank you! Love this song not a typical kpop song just sounds like a artist. YOON wrote and composed the whole album. Please check out his album it’s heaps good especially better with MINO
WINNER ARE MASTERPIECE
And so you know who did the voice in the last chorus? They are Seung Yoon's younger siblings, Treasure and the female YG trainees who are rumored to be debuting as well
Thank you for your reaction
I just discovered your reactions to WINNER. Subscribing. Thanks!
nooooo never turn your passion into your career!! once your passion turns into your career, you will start to hate it! and it is tougher to deal with when you start hating your passion, it’s more depressing when your passion lets you down or you let it down
That 1% note..
hi thank u so much for ur reaction, always love ur reaction, can u please react to 365 live from seung yoon in mdromeda, i promise u wont regret it. again, thank u so much for ur reaction
Finally !
Iyah has a double meaning, it can mean baby but it also means "ouchie"...it's what Koreans say instead of "ouch".
Also, if you want to see how this song affected people, read the comments under neath.
Idols right now are pressured to release content/songs/mv because of the fans. Often they forget that this idols are exhausted to the point that they lost their self in the process.
see the live performances kang vs minor BETTER 👍👍👍❤
in the same genre for the lyrics I recommend Epik high bleed or lost one
The first thing you had to know is IYAH means kid.
Is it just me or listening to his reactions is like listening to life lessons?? Lol
Pls react to Kang Seungyoon album PAGE too
IYAH means Ouch in korean
like when ur hurt korean says "Iyah".
Wait what no. I think Aiya means child. 아이 Means child and Korean tend to add 야 (ya) (like: Jinwoo-ya or Mino-ya) in the end of name or when they call someone. So yeah, Aisyah means child.
@@reyzavama1488 it's IYAH not Aiyah
or maybe I'm wrong. 🤔🤔
@@reyzavama1488
ohh i found this reaction video 👇
ruclips.net/video/2Fm_ZAZwedg/видео.html
u can check this 🤔🤔 maybe it can help tho
@@reactionpaper2288 the Korean title with the hangeul is written 아이야 ( AIYA) so the tittle is basically aiya
please react to yoon "born to love you". am expecting ur reaction hehe
React to the recent comeback of the DKB - ALL IN please!
Please reaction Yoon’s better with Mino😎
Thank yoooooou
I think you forget to react Mochi
I know you mostly focus on kpop but could you do a reaction to 'Montero (call me by your name)' by Lil Nas X?
Not only is the song amazing but the mv has a lot of breathtaking visuals I think you would like and a lot of meaning in general and I would love to hear you analysing it
I hope you don't mind me asking 🙇
Pls react btob - beautiful pain or missing you
