Chan actually was still 13 (Australia age, not Korean age). He joined JYP April 2011, so he didn't turn 14 until October 3, 2011 ... almost 6 month later.
And Lee Know learned all 40 of JYP's mandatory dance moves in just 2 weeks .... the fastest person to that before him took 2 months to learn them. Lee Know is Our beautiful Dancing Gem!!!
Lee Know has the shortest trainee period of all K-Pop idols ever since the trainee program was implemented in the industry. That is, except those who literally debuted straight after signing the contract - which is with no trainee period to up to a few days. The question is, does the participation in the show count as trainee period, afterall their official debut was in spring 2018, while the show was in 2017. In that case, Lee Know would have had a trainee period of a year, give or take.
10:50 that was actually evil editing on mnets part. Chan gets harsh on Han and what they dont show is Chan storming off afterwards and coming back since it was around midnight and Hans birthday. It was a prank and Chan came back with a cake for Han. They revealed that years later in a 2 kids room.
Came here to say this - glad you'd already explained it so well. This was evil editing on Mnet's side, just like exploiting I.N's live mic backstage during Kingdom.
@@EFX5452 I’ve haven’t seen the whole Kingdom show yet, wdym they exploited his live mic? Are you talking about when he’s crying after his voice crack?
@@josi0.062 yep - it was a private moment outside of the filming areas. I.N still had his mic pack on after the performance, so they used his obviously accidental live mic feed for the show. When fans complained, they stopped using it for previews and promos, but they'd already aired it. They also didn't invite Stray Kids to the MAMA Awards - until they decided to include them in the Kingdom lineup. Stray Kids only got something like 72 hours to plan, choreograph, and produce a performance. They didn't sleep, but pulled off one of my favorite performances ever with Victory Song. Mnet's antics exploiting Stray Kids, and idols in general, are numerous.
"Where's LeeKnow?!" It seems that LeeKnow went back into "trainee" status, because evidently he was back in the training rooms the day after elimination...
Bang Chan is the meaning of perseverance. You never know what you were this close to winning if you give up. Imagine watching all leaving you behind and this might be your last chance
What wasn't mentioned in this video is how Han mentioned that Chan stays at the company untill like 4/5 am every day doing arrangements AFTER doing all the practices and everything with his team and than is back at the company by 10, daily. He literally says "I would have collapsed already, he really is amazing". Chan literally functioned on like 4 hours of sleep for monthes. Its insane.
It is crazy but some people just function like that ... I'm one of them it started around 13-14 years old ... I'm 42 now and still only get 4-5 hrs a night. If I go to bed at 10pm I'm up at 3am... Wide awake ... I tend to do puzzles and read till 1am then get up at 5 am to get the kids off to school .. yeah I can't sleep more then 4-5 hrs... My body wakes up and bang I take off for the day. Sadly the few times I have achieved a full 8-10 hrs sleep I feel like shit the next few days .... 🤷
Just wanted to say that Chan at 11:05 when Chan supposedly told off Han for saying he’s exhausted, it was a prank and they edited it out while airing the show. Soon after that, Chan went out and brought Han a cake for celebrating his birthday 😭
I can never forget the scene where Changbin cried and hugged tightly after Felix was eliminated, this was definitely the SKZ Survival Show scene that affected me the most. While he was apologizing blaming himself, Felix didn't want his to apologize, it was so sweet and sad.
CLEARLY, JYP has no idea what charisma actually is. Bang Chan's middle name is charisma. I’m editing to add that I am a grown adult and for whatever reason there are kids on here who think it’s their job to come for someone with a different opinion. For those messaging me and defending JYP, why? Children, learn to take a joke.
Dude pls stop, this was all the past, CLEARLY ALSO, they're still trainees and needs improvement, they wouldn't be right where they are right now if they didn't improve
@@BrennAstotle she means "stop criticizing JYP's comments with the image of the current group in mind", at that time they had many defects, which they improved over time but they were not as talented and charismatic at the time of the survival show and that's normal.
@@BrennAstotle If JYP didn't pointed out the fact he needs more charisma, then it would've felt more plain as JYP is just giving them things they need to fix.
the time when felix was eliminated chan and him cried the whole day at their dorm.. bang chan even blamed and questioned himself for losing minlix .. and leeknow at that time work extra hard to improve ... this really makes me cry everytime i watch the survival...
The young boys that were in the Showcase with them at the beginning, eventually became Boy Story. There are a lot of clips of Stray Kids taking care of them. One of them was a Felix mini-me. They are all now taller than the SKZ members 😆 JYP said a couple of times that Chan needed more charisma. His complaint was mainly that Chan would stay in the background and let the others shine. Which I think is one of the things that make him such a great leader. He doesn't need to 'hog the spotlight' Han and Hyunjin sharing a room at the beginning was hilarious, since they could not stand each other at that point. In the episode you can see them quickly hug and separate as fast as they can 🙃 While everyone despises JYP for his decisions. He knows the business, and could make unbiased decisions. Much as we don't like to admit it, at the time Felix and Lee Know were not ready. They did work hard and ended up back in the group. IN was also arguably not really ready, but JYP said the group worked better as nine, flaws and all. Him sidelining Bang Chan was also the correct decision. Chan was spreading himself very thin and JYP knew it. He had also badly injured himself in the dance practice, and they had to change the choreography (He injured his neck and almost paralyzed himself. He still struggles with it now and has to be careful) A lot of us are looking at all this with hind-sight and forget how much they have all improved over the years. Seungmin still maintains his diary. He used to get stressed when they are too busy and he couldn't follow his routines. Though I think he has improved. The audience voted for nine members by 96%
I agree with everything you say but still think JYP was doing too much knowing what I know now. How did he expect Leeknow to magically excel at rapping when he only had 2 weeks to learn dances before joining the survival show😭 Also yes, constructive criticism is important and I get why he had to be tough on them before they were presented to the public but man some of it just rubbed me the wrong way🫤 The editors and producers definitely had fun as well while filming and editing that's for sure😶
@@ugoclaire1198 There was definitely an element of creating tension and drawing an audience. But I guess that is business. MNET did some questionable editing. They are called MSnake for a reason.
@seniorkittystay lol I've never heard that particular nickname but I do know they've been very shady in the past. Yeah logically I understand what they were trying to achieve, marketing at its finest but still...
@@ugoclaire1198 Definitely. But we are also looking back with hindsight. All I can say is that they have done themselves proud. They have grown slowly and surely, and earned their place the hard way.
As Army that's explored STRAYKIDZ, I cry every time I see the history 😭 BTS and STRAYKIDZ worked hard 😭 they taught me a lot About hardworking, and strong friendship ❤️🔥❤️🔥RM &CHAN ARE LEGENDARY LEADERS🤌🙌✨
This is a pretty good guide through the show but nothing beats watching it. Especially the members explaining just how grueling their training really was. Bang Chan on getting a few hours sleep, Felix always practicing to try and get better also staying up super late, Hyunjin doing everything he could and worrying about his pronunciations.
I love your videos and I like your energy and how you don’t try to keep shit family friendly like other people you don’t hide under a mask and I like that keep doing what you! Love the video!
Things I learnt from this... 1. JYP doesn't know jack. Just get out of Bang Chans way, HE saw the potential, HE knew the members strengths. HE saw Stray Kids. 2. Bang Chan is THE GOAT of K Pop leaders. 3. They are so super supportive and caring for each other 🥹❤ it's beautiful.
(not so) fun fact: chan hurt himself trying to do a backflip before the dance battle with yg. He had to have injections into his neck so he would be able to preform (he was still in pain during the performance). They took the flip out of the performance.
No, no, of course, Bang Chan always had charisma! But he was always closed off. And JY Park knew how to get out of Bang Chan what he was hiding. In the same way, he pushed Minho to open up. By actually showing what Minho could lose if he continued to close off. And Felix. My favorite and most wonderful Lixie! JY Park pushed him to master the Korean language as quickly as possible. JY Park is an excellent psychologist. He knows that people often delay developing their skills. And he simply put the members in situations that helped them open up faster. This is my opinion. And yes ... I cried a lot when Minho and Felix were eliminated. I, just like Seungmin, just sobbed and I could not stop crying, although I already knew that the guys had become very successful. I still cry every time I see those times. My beloved, most beloved SKZ!!! Bang Chan is the best leader! And thanks to him for gathering the members so precisely and amazingly! Isn't it a miracle what heights the SKZ have reached?! !!! I love them with all my heart, with all my soul!
No lol 😄 Chan knew the members that he picked - some better than others but he still knew them all on a more personal level. What was being said at 3:45 (and what you misunderstood) was that *JYP DIDN'T KNOW THE MEMBERS VERY WELL* both personally and also not as a group because Chan was the one who picked them and not JYP himself or the company. Hope that makes sense!
10:48 NAUUUURRRR Chan was just pranking Han here because it was supposedly his birthday that day 😭 they even had a cake for him but ofc you know mnet's evil editing
Wow this was special. Jinyoung from GOT7 is maybe my favourite Korean person for quite a few years! SKZ are becoming a big wonderful surprise as they keep impressing me, constantly (Han = An Ace yeah!!). 🙏👍
Stray kids every member gave lot effort,hard work,pain & happiness in those years together ❤ 8 members with their all effort we seeing stay+skz= family now.... Love you our ot8 & stays
I especially want to mention bang chan here like litral perfect keeping everyone toghether ...his maturity level wow hats off...also the way no one could find hyunjin's charm but now look at him the most viewed fancams wow really grt growth all i can say
Lee know and Felix's elimination got me crying, even though I know the final result, I couldn't help but feel very very heart broken when Lee know and Felix were eliminated 😭😭
I am an Army. But because I watched that show and just about died when Lee Know & Felix were eliminated...Stay runs through my veins too. It broke & still breaks my heart to watch that happen to them. Plus, they make some damn good music! Thank you Stray Kids & thank you Stay. I love you all. I will always stand with both BTS and Stray Kids 💜
Just a note, the reason Han took Lee Knows hand was to help him keep the beat. He used his finger to tap out the beat for Lee Know, which helped Lee Know. So sweet. ❤😊
Channie is such a hard working and talented guy since day 1. All of them are but Chan with all of his composing, writing, producing and even staying up all night, he is a true artist. He's such a genius!
I hesitated to watch the survival show but after watching it, it made me feel more proud of how they've become and seeing Ben's reaction made me remember how dramatic I was watching the survival show hahaha
Bang Chan left his country and came to Korea for an internship in 2010 and did an internship for 7 years.(I was born in 2010😅) The thing that made me cry the most here was when Lee Know lost and then when it was raining he didn't think he was worthy of a bus and walked in the rain😭 Stray Kids suffered a lot to get to this point😢They still have high goals and will reach them. Because it has STAY behind it🩵
After lee know being eliminated he said that he walked home alone in the rain thinking he doesn't deserve to take a cab after what happened and the day after? He went back to training again.
This video is really good! Honestly, understanding where they come from, how they were formed and what Channie had envisioned for them from the beginning, it all makes it so much clearer who Stray Kids are and how they formed their mentality and bonds
To this day, Whenever I hear Hellevator it triggers me. I’m either in tears or so so emotional 😭 I’m happy to see the boys doing so well today! StrayKids is my safe place. My Home 🫂
It missed the part Hyunjin wasn't a dancer but worked really hard when he stepped in jype and han told everyone that hyunjin used to work really hard until 5 am which made him motivated too he also helped jeongin and seungmin with choreos, also he got famous among survival show fans he was himself surprised to see it 🥺
I would recommend watching the full survival show because they missed a lot of important facts and details about the members such as the fact that hyunjin said that someone told him that he could just pass and debut because of how handsome he was but hyunjin didn't just want to be seen only because of his looks but for his talent so that's why he worked even harder to get better and whenever they ask who is the main visual changbin always says it's him because they know hyunjin doesn't like being called the visual, and the fact that bangchan would stay up very late composing until he would fall asleep, another fact is that they didn't mention the fact that 3racha had been composing before the survival show and you can find their old RUclips channel where they would upload songs that I would recommend listening to they are all good .
I just love the way , A light bulb shines on you when you realize the magic that is BangChan!! the moment you discovered Han's level of hard work and as each member helped each other. Stray Kids didn't demand our love and respect. They ERNED it. How can we not love the miracle that is Stray Kids. I am an ole fossil yet a forever STAY from the hills of central Kentucky. Stray Kids all around the world indeed!!
At 3:46 it looks like you are actually sitting at the table in the meeting with Skz and JYP as your head and shoulders align perfectly with one of the Kids' sweater. Welcome to Stray Kids Ben!😂
Here goes the water works again 😭😭 I always cry everytime I watch the debut show everytime I watch the survival show. I know they all debuted but how can you not cry?
I NEED to watch the survival show!! I'm a walking talking Stay. I've seen clips and know about the eliminations. But it's a must see for my Stayhood foundation!
Thanks for this video, I have seen few clips but never watched a detailed video of how skz became a group Don't worry ben it wasn't only you, I was also wondering where leeknow was and felix and then when jyp gave the final decision I was so happy that I felt like crying even though I know that they made it, i wonder how those that have been a stay right from the beginning felt if I who is a stay for a year felt like this while watching this video 🥺
Bang Chan was 14 when he became a trainee. There's a reason why the first line of Social Path is 'Gave up my youth for my future'...
Ohhh:((( now i get it
@@Mikasawskz yep, social path is pretty much Chans trainee life
In the recent concert, Chan started crying during social path to the point he had to go backstage 😭 and choked up during singing 😭😭
He moved to SK in 2011
Chan actually was still 13 (Australia age, not Korean age). He joined JYP April 2011, so he didn't turn 14 until October 3, 2011 ... almost 6 month later.
the way I cry whenever the eliminations appear even tho I perfectly know they are all together
same
S-same😢
common stay experience
Me too
Me tooo😢
Minho and Felix getting eliminated is something that will always make me cry 😢
Lee Know trained only 1 month before participating in this show. He has the most shortest training period among skz members. He is amazing!
And Lee Know learned all 40 of JYP's mandatory dance moves in just 2 weeks .... the fastest person to that before him took 2 months to learn them. Lee Know is Our beautiful Dancing Gem!!!
@@becki3101 LeeMinho revealed, not that long ago , that he has the record of 2 weeks because that was how long he was given to do it.

The way I need to decide if I’m currently emotionally stable enough to watch anything to do with their survival program 🙈
I'm at the airport right now and I just decided that I gotta have to wait but had to sneak in the comments!
it took me 8mos to finally watch it (through reactor vids bcs i don't wanna suffer alone) 😭
Bang Chan is the meaning of perseverance. You never know what you were this close to winning if you give up. Imagine watching all leaving you behind and this might be your last chance
Bang Chan is an ace and with all due respect there wil never be another Bang Chan again. It’s very rare to find an artist like him.
If you're a Stay and you didn't cry after watching this..... Your unbelievable
I never cry lol. Even when I watch the survival show. I know they are fine now so I'm not sad just mad tbh.

Just a note, the reason Han took Lee Knows hand was to help him keep the beat. He used his finger to tap out the beat for Lee Know, which helped Lee Know. So sweet. ❤😊
thank you for this! I just discovered Stray Kids, and have been searching for back stories. This sums it up in one shot - thank you!
Channie is such a hard working and talented guy since day 1. All of them are but Chan with all of his composing, writing, producing and even staying up all night, he is a true artist. He's such a genius!
Unpopular fact ; they choose their own group name
I hesitated to watch the survival show but after watching it, it made me feel more proud of how they've become and seeing Ben's reaction made me remember how dramatic I was watching the survival show hahaha
Ben be like "where's Lee Know? Where's Felix?" Gimme back my boys
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEOOOO
Bang Chan left his country and came to Korea for an internship in 2010 and did an internship for 7 years.(I was born in 2010😅)
The thing that made me cry the most here was when Lee Know lost and then when it was raining he didn't think he was worthy of a bus and walked in the rain😭

After lee know being eliminated he said that he walked home alone in the rain thinking he doesn't deserve to take a cab after what happened and the day after? He went back to training again.
This video is really good! Honestly, understanding where they come from, how they were formed and what Channie had envisioned for them from the beginning, it all makes it so much clearer who Stray Kids are and how they formed their mentality and bonds
I just love Bang Chan and his singular focus and intensity. Truly a warrior 🪖 for Stray Kids...🐺🐾
To this day, Whenever I hear Hellevator it triggers me. I’m either in tears or so so emotional 😭 I’m happy to see the boys doing so well today! StrayKids is my safe place. My Home 🫂
Thank you for sharing this. I love your reactions.
It missed the part Hyunjin wasn't a dancer but worked really hard when he stepped in jype and han told everyone that hyunjin used to work really hard until 5 am which made him motivated too he also helped jeongin and seungmin with choreos, also he got famous among survival show fans he was himself surprised to see it 🥺
He was training for 7 years because they made him do a lots like singing danceing playing the piano and some other things
I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO😭
I would recommend watching the full survival show because they missed a lot of important facts and details about the members such as the fact that hyunjin said that someone told him that he could just pass and debut because of how handsome he was but hyunjin didn't just want to be seen only because of his looks but for his talent so that's why he worked even harder to get better and whenever they ask who is the main visual changbin always says it's him because they know hyunjin doesn't like being called the visual, and the fact that bangchan would stay up very late composing until he would fall asleep, another fact is that they didn't mention the fact that 3racha had been composing before the survival show and you can find their old RUclips channel where they would upload songs that I would recommend listening to they are all good .
@3.47 it looks like Ben Kim is sitting at the table with the boys and JYP 😂
Where's Lee Know ??😢😢 He back to training him self so hard for his vocal and rap ... ❤😊😊
that was amazing and so heart wrenching!!!!
Stray kids survival was really hard to watch.
Ben, love your new outtro music!🎶🎶
it's so heart touching i can't help but cry😭🥺
I just love the way , A light bulb shines on you when you realize the magic that is BangChan!! the moment you discovered Han's level of hard work and as each member helped each other. Stray Kids didn't demand our love and respect. They ERNED it. How can we not love the miracle that is Stray Kids. I am an ole fossil yet a forever STAY from the hills of central Kentucky. Stray Kids all around the world indeed!!
So proud of them and so happy for their current success! 🎉🎉🎉
The elimination would make every stay cries even though they ended up together anyways 😭😭
I felt the same way Ben. They are a great group. I hope that they will be on the MTV Video Music Awards.
Survival show most brutal series any stay will ever watch and every stay needs to see
Watching Ben become stressed even knowing that Lee Know and Felix are in the group 😂
At 3:46 it looks like you are actually sitting at the table in the meeting with Skz and JYP as your head and shoulders align perfectly with one of the Kids' sweater. Welcome to Stray Kids Ben!😂
I cried during this 😭
Ok, I didn't cry because they didn't include Lee Know's spoken message to the others. Hearing that audio KILLS ME every time!
3:46 im cryinggg Ben's face fit perfectly to one member body
That was great Ben
Video: Lee know was eliminated
Ben: where’s Lee know
4:02 no they was saying JYP wasn't familiar with the boys not chan😭
Here goes the water works again 😭😭 I always cry everytime I watch the debut show everytime I watch the survival show. I know they all debuted but how can you not cry?
19:34 Ace of kpop! ✨🤣
Seeing thier individual fears, 🤯 thier devotion it's so inspiring 🐺🐾
I still crying whenever I watch this
Love this Got7 were the reason I became a stray kids fan I need Ben to react to some Got7 videos

ME TOO!
I learned so much from this too about skz
I NEED to watch the survival show!! I'm a walking talking Stay. I've seen clips and know about the eliminations. But it's a must see for my Stayhood foundation!
FIRST! RUclips kept it from me for 8s :(
« Han was praised…
- ACE OF K-POP »
Hahaha I love those reactions
What was the hardest part, was seeing seungmin breaking down at Lee know's elimination. I cry every time 😢
Bangchan and his babys deserve their fame now😊❤
FINALLY YOU'RE WATCHING THEM PRE-DEBUT!!!!
I feel like you can't fully appreciate what they've gone through with this summary. But I understand not everyone has time to watch the whole show.
Thanks for this video, I have seen few clips but never watched a detailed video of how skz became a group
Don't worry ben it wasn't only you, I was also wondering where leeknow was and felix and then when jyp gave the final decision I was so happy that I felt like crying even though I know that they made it, i wonder how those that have been a stay right from the beginning felt if I who is a stay for a year felt like this while watching this video 🥺
