Infinite is known for their unique sound and style and how most of their songs include rock and/or brass and classical string instruments as part of their signature orchestral sound. It's said that you can tell it's an Infinite song just by the sound and style of the song within the first few seconds because Infinite songs are different than all other Kpop songs. There is always an element of the sound of their songs that makes them stand out. However, "New Emotions," has a sound unlike anything they have done in the past. Although the members said they were nervous to try something new, that is unlike what they are most known for, I think it also helps to establish their fresh start as newly independent artists who are free to decide their own path from here on out. Although with their b-side songs on their 13egin album you will hear more of their signature style and sound, so they still stay true to what makes them uniquely Infinite. Infinite is also known for being one of the first groups to focus on making their choreography hyper synchronized and they have been coined with the phrase "knife-like synchronization." You noticed their sharp dance moves because that is what they are known for. You need to check out their dance practice videos for these songs to really see how impressive their choreography is. Yes, not only is Infinite known for their dancing, but they are also a vocal powerhouse group that, like SHINee, sings live while dancing these intense choreos. Infinite -- along with SHINee -- is one of the groups that is credited with changing the focus of dancing within the Kpop industry. If it wasn't for SHINee and Infinite upping the game and showing everyone that it was possible to have sharp synchronized dance moves while singing live and be able to pull it off flawlessly, the industry would probably be a lot different today. "Come Back Again" is one of those songs that all rookies in the Kpop industry learn the choreography to and often perform as part of their rookie showcase. (The computerized manipulation of their voices was just what was the new it thing to do in songs in 2010. You will see the same thing being used in most Kpop songs around this time.) The animal in the "Come Back Again" MV I think is a Fennec desert fox, just like the Fennec fox that Jennie is holding in BlackPink's "DDU-DU DDU-DU" MV. The song is called "Last Romeo" so the story is a version of Romeo and Juliet's story. That is why Romeo is always searching for and chasing after Juliet, but he can never catch her because as the story of Romeo and Juliet goes, their families always keep them apart and the only way they can be together is in death, etc. Fun fact: Everything you see happening in the "Last Romeo" MV really happened. For example, when all those books exploded in the library, Woohyun was actually standing in the middle of the room during the explosion and all those books and paper was shot in the air all around him. Check out the making of video for "Last Romeo" ruclips.net/video/kvYM8F-8IUw/видео.html to see how epic this MV really is. "The Eye" is a reference to the eye of a storm. One theory is that "The Eye" storyline is connected to their "Back" and "The Chaser" MV Storylines. Some think that in "The Eye" L is the only member who has survived the fight you will see happening in their "Back" MV. Therefore, the story in "The Eye" is about him battling the guilt and sorrow of being the only one alive. The other members are spirits or ghosts who are trying to prevent L from succumbing to his pain of being alone and they want to keep him alive. So you see them fighting with him to stop him from giving up and "going into the light," etc. The scene with L in the car where he falls into Hoya's lap, I think could be connected to the fact that we see L tumbling over and over again in a car in "The Chaser." One thing you will probably start to notice about Infinite's MVs, is they often are open ended and most of the time they end on a cliffhanger. Infinite originally was a Woollim Entertainment group that debuted in 2010 -- 2 years after SHINee -- so this year is their 14th anniversary. They were originally a 7-member group. However, as you can see, they now have 6 members. (Hoya, who was their main dancer and considered one of the top dancers in Kpop, as well as a lead vocalist and rapper, left Infinite in 2017, and now he's a solo artist/dancer, etc.) Infinite finally made a comeback last year after 5 years, after all the members completed their military duties, and they have now established their own company. "New Emotions" is their first comeback after becoming independent. Hence, their album is called 13egin. > Sungkyu who is a main vocalist, is the leader of the group. He was the first of the members to debut solo back in 2012 and he is also a musical stage actor. > Infinite's main rapper, main dancer and lead vocalist, is DongWoo. He is also a musical stage actor and a songwriter and solo artist. > L (Kim Myungsoo) is a lead vocalist. In the past he was most often the main character in Infinite's story-based MVs because he is one of the top Idol actors who has been in numerous K-dramas and movies. L is really good at showing emotion and immersing himself into every role he plays to make you believe his every emotion is exactly how he really feels and everything that happens to him is real. He is one of my favorite K-drama actors.
> Nam Woohyun is a main vocalist and the one that usually has the powerful vocals in Infinite's songs. He is also a solo artist and an actor in K-dramas, movies and musicals. As you may remember, Woohyun is good friends with SHINee's Key and together they formed the industry's very first project group that had members from different companies, called ToHeart in 2014. (ToHeart has a couple of MVs and a mini album.) > Sungyeol is a lead vocalist. He has also been an actor in dramas since before debuting with Infinite. > The member who often stands out with his pretty voice is SungJong, who is the maknae. He is known for his delicate features and his unique voice. (He is recognized for his high melodic vocal ability and dynamic range, similar to Jun from Seventeen.) He just debuted as a solo artist last year, as well. Infinite fans are called Inspirits.
YES! INFINITE! I would argue that INFINITE has one of the best discographies in Kpop! Hopefully, you have these title tracks queued up for more INFINITE reactions: She's Back, BTD, Be Mine, Nothing's Over, Paradise, The Chaser, Destiny, Man in Love, Back, and Bad. I also want to throw in these groups for future reactions since they're so underappreciated: B1A4, 9MUSES, BOYFRIEND, and ZE:A
is a fact atp i have every infinite release wether unit,solo, commercial request from samsung or monster from telemonster what ever they do its sound so amazing
The Korean title for The Eye is 태풍 which translates to a typhoon, so we can assume by saying THE Eye, they mean the eye of the storm. Also, thanks sm for checking out Infinite! They were definite gamechangers in 2nd gen, especially the way they influenced so many to focus more on their choreo synchronicity.
Actually before Infinite there’s Super Junior with their synchronize dancing (with 13 members). But, yeah.. that’s in the past. Bcoz now not synchronize anymore for SJ 😅 I love both Infinite & Super Junior btw 💛💙
So happy to see this Infinite one of the very best 2nd gen . They were from a very small company but managed to hold their own against the big 3 . The chaser has gone down as one of the best kpop songs and was one of the first to appear on the Billboard chart to this day it’s always in the top 100 . They have fantastic vocals and are known for for there dancing skills as well enjoy
random fun fact: JHope's nickname in high school was actually Smile Hoya! Because Hoya was so synonymous with being a good dancer. Hope was Smile Hoya because he smiled all the time and was an amazing dancer
seriouly Infinite is one of the most important groups in the kpop in many ways, sadly because o f his company and the big4 many of their archievements had been overshadowed or directly said that were other artists that made them... Like Nam Woohyun one of the main vocals of the group was the one who made the finger heart popular in the kpop scene, the most recognizable symbol of the industry and many forget who is the pioneer, and not only that: the first group in billboard Korea, the first gorup who wasn in top 10 popularity outside of the initial Big3, the group who had the most expensive MV in their time, the first group to be called kings of synchronisation and with SHINee the two base groups for choreos of the 3rd Gen. They were that group and nowadays one of the few groups who owns their name and discography and have their own company for the group promotions, still making tours and fanmeetings
New Emotional was missing the signature bridge and high note that they are known for in Infinite song but unfortunately one of the members Woohyun one of the main vocal was recovering from cancer at the time. Infinite is one of the best second generation group. They contribute so much to kpop and made what it is today. Lots of kpop boy group and girl group are their fans. They are a public friendly group. Infinite were the ones bringing synchronization and knife like dance into kpop. They are one of the best live singers that they literally sound like the CD. Woohyun one of the members populalised the finger heart. Infinite are a great group talented and funny.
Infinite’s The Chaser is a quintessential kpop classic. It’s interesting how much things have changed over the 11 years I’ve been into kpop. A lot of groups that were from medium sized companies that made a huge mark on the industry and pop culture have come and gone. So glad to see infinite back (as well as new things from BAP and Kara) There do not seem to be as many successful groups from medium sized companies as there were in 2nd and early 3rd gen which is unfortunate. However, there have been so many really great changes or upgrades from a creative direction standpoint over the years.
Like other comments states, I wholeheartedly recommend The Chaser aswell, Im not even an inspirit, but it's still one of the best songs that the Kpop industry has released to this day.
Yes, I love when reactors go back and give some love to older groups!! And Infinite are so deserving. They have an impeccable discography and if they had been under a bigger company I know they'd be even bigger in the industry than they were at their peak. The one thing about Infinite is how unique they are!! I don't think I've ever heard another kpop group that sounds exactly like them and their choreography is unique in this way too. New Emotions was a completely different sound for them but it still somehow sounds so Infinite. Infinite is known for having more dramatic and darker sounding songs/concepts with The Chaser being one of the greatest kpop songs ever created, so I definitely recommend that one (as many other people already have ofc). Some other songs I recommend are "Be Mine" "Destiny" "Back, and "Bad".
Such a great reaction!!! Thank you for reacting to INFINITE, never expected you to react to my favourite group, i was so happy when i saw the thumbnail and i enjoyed it so much. If you will decide to do other reactions, after checking out title tracks also check out their b-sides, they don't have MVs but there are many great stages with their b-side tracks. They are worth it. INFINITE's discography is amazing. Also they have the funniest contents ever, especially their reality shows. Every K-pop lover should know Infinite, they are game-changers. Again thank youu!!!😁🙃
speaking of infinite's reality shows/funny contents, one of my favorites is probably infinite's showtime!! i LOVED that one and i feel like it's where i truly fell in love with the group. :')
OMG! thanks for reacting to INFINITE, it's the first kpop group I've ever listened to and one of my favorites to date without a doubt. I hope you can react more to them, the choreographies are amazing because you can see the incredible synchronization they have, the choreography of Last Romeo is art; INFINITE will always leave you wanting to hear more of them, their music is amazing. greetings from Mexico, I like to see your video reactions
As others stated, it is literal fact that Infinite were the catalyst behind the idea of synchronization. Before them everyone danced in their own style and it was seen as just how it was. But then they debuted with Come Back Again and had perfect sync that companies kind of realized it IS possible to have x amount of people in perfect synchronization and it became a thing that everyone sought to make happen in their groups. So when you see a group that's synced up beautifully, that is genuinely thanks to Infinite.
Infinite….one of my very first favorite KPop groups! The Eye made cry so much, and Bad has been playing constantly in my mind for years now! They have a Killing Voice, so you know 😊And New Emotions is a masterpiece 💖
The first song I heard by Infinite was "Be Mine" and it's such a unique sounding song! They don't get enough credit for being one of the pioneers for synchronization and strong live vocals ☹️ I hope you check out "Be Mine," "The Chaser," "Back," "Destiny," and "Bad" next!
Wow!! unexpected reaction!! Hope you will react to The Chaser, Bad and Back!! they must be your taste!! The chaser is the no.1 best kpop song of billboard 2012! Intro is a must for Infinite's title songs just like the opening of Last Romeo. i really love the intro of The Eye which is called Eternity. It seems like a orchestra performance!!
So glad you checked out Infinite. They have one of the most solid discographies in Kpop. Not sure you can still find them but if you can check out their reality shows, they are one of the funniest Kpop groups. Really can’t help but love them. Suggest you check out their killing voice it’s super fun.
I haven’t been a kpop fan for very long but lemme tell you when I found out about this group they climbed the ult ladder so fast. I’m so happy you checked them out!!
I think infinite has the best discography among boy bands, all of their title songs are timeless classics and their albums are sooo good❤️🔥❤️🔥 “Paradise” is my fav song ever 😞😞 “The chaser” is critically acclaimed as the best kpop song in 2012 and best kpop song by a boy group in 2010s as well as one of best boy band songs of all time. I also would recommend: man in love, be mine, btd, bad, destiny, back, dna.. literally all of their title tracks. I don’t know how to explain it but their songs give a feeling that a song can’t be more perfect than that ?😭 i would highly recommend you to check their dance practices, it’s so satisfying watching them dance😭 they’re known for their synchronized dance and knife-like choreo along with their live vocals❤️🔥❤️🔥 they always have a live band in their concerts. Their performances are out of this world 🫡
For the record, the woman in the Last Romeo video is Mijoo from Lovelyz, a group belonging to the same company as Infinite. Lovelyz's Goodnight Like Yesterday and Ah-Choo music videos feature Sungkyu and Hoya respectively. And Baby Soul, member and leader of Lovelyz, participated in Infinite's sub-unit, "Infinite H".
Infiniteee Chaser is their absolute best song and they also have a killing voice!! I do recommend the choreo version of chaser. i also i hope that you can check out Beast/highlight next.
RJ!!!!!! I'm having fun. Idk if anybody already comment this but I remember reading some info on The Eye. The Korean title is Taepung (Typhoon) and through the choreography, you can see how they did a typhoon formation with a member in the middle as 'the eye' of the typhoon (whoever is in the middle is usually calm, doesn't move too much compared to the members surrounding him who act as the typhoon, requiring them to dance in an 'aggressive' type of way I must say). Regarding the lyrics, it might mean they're caught in the typhoon of the break up.
Geez, you reacting to Infinite was so unexpected but utterly pleasant. I've been watching your reactions to iKON and BigBang who are my fave YG OGs. But Infinite, my only digression from my YG boys have always had a special place in my heart. These very talented boys debuted with Come Back Again. Things you can start with; their Killing Voice, early works Be Mine, BTD, Paradise and The Chaser. Their discography is impeccable and so is their knife-like, synchro dance moves. Their sound is always linked to being sounding very 80s but we all know a good synth when we hear one. Sunggyu & Woohyun have solos you can check out. So does Dongwoo (after Hoya left). Dongwoo and Hoya also had their own hip hop outfit (under Infinite H). The rappers were trained by Woolim's pioneer act Epik High (who also later joined YG - I can't run away from my YG men). I hope to see more Infinite reactions!! They are definitely worth the rabbit hole fall!!
The animal in Infinite's "Come Back Again" MV is a white Fennec desert fox, just like the Fennec fox that Jennie is holding in BlackPink's "DDU-DU DDU-DU" MV.
oooo Infinite! I still listen to "The Eye" and "Bad" on my Kpop jams playlist on the regular! Also they have some of the best live vocals and harmonies of second gen. I remember there was this clip of when they were performing one time and there was a technical issue and the music cut out. They just kept singing and you tell how truly live they were and they sounded even better acapella!!
I always recommend watching their dance practice or dance version vids so you can see the choreo and get a sense of who sings what. Their voices are all very distinctive & they have a way of highlighting the singer of each line.
Their vocal hamonization and choregraphy sync made them a stand out back then. Then the whole SM-Woolim fiasco, I enjoyed their friendship with SM groups such as exo and Shinee. They're just did a fanmeet not a while ago and its bittersweet.
Thank you so much for reacting to Infinite! They have been my #1 group since 2011 when i first heard BTD. I believe one reason they came back after their unintentional 5 year hiaus with a shorter song is because Woohyun, one of the main vocals, was still recovering from having a rare form of stomach cancer.
OMG so glad that you checked them out, they are my first fav K-pop group before TXT 1:39 Yes you're right, it is "Small Talk", and yes he's one of the judges at Peak time 19:04 At this point you'll end up liking all of their voices haha but it's understandable bcs me too 21:02 The guy who's crying is L/Kim Myungsoo and yes he's an actor too I recommend Be Mine, The Chaser, Back, Bad ✨
I love Infinite they're the 1st kgroup that I watch a variety content. They were so funny and music is bomb. I still think The Chaser is one of the best kpop songs ❤
yassss the group known for their syncronized choreographies. u talked about the instruments and infinite actually release this big instrumental only album.
Omg infinteee thanks for reacting to themmmmm it brings me back 🥲🥲🥲 if you end up diing infinite again pleas do the chaser! Truly one of the best kpop song ever made!
Glad you finally checked them out! I definitely recommend checking out Be mine, Paradise, Back and Bad, which are my favourite songs by them and it's kinda funny you managed to skip all of them 🤣
I'm so glad you liked them! Infinite is my nr.2 favorite kpop group ever 💖 My synchronise dances kings 🥰 "The Chaser" is still my nr.1 favorite kpop dance, ever! Also love the song of course. I would also recommend "Be mine", "Back" and "Flower".
11:33 thats my frowning face as well when listening to Infinite’s. Need to analyse all instruments 😂 They have unique sound. You’ll hear more ochestrated sound for other songs. BACK is my top fav. PARADISE too. Anyway, infinite is about live performance, concert. Their specialty. Killing voice is a good start
you were right every time you pointed out sungjong (the maknae), and the member whose voice you kept pointing out in the eye was hoya!!! for which four songs to listen to next, i would recommend the chaser (universally known as one of the best kpop songs of all time), be mine, btd, and back, bc that’s a good mix of lots of different styles, but all of their songs are so good so you really can’t go wrong
Thank you very much for the reaction. This is my favorite group. Can you please do a reaction to Killing voice with infinite, I think it's a really cool opportunity to see all the members. Because everyone in this group is incredibly talented. About Kim Sumg Kyu, I think you listened to his song Small talk. If you like his voice, it would be cool if you did a reaction to Killing voice with him.
Oh legends! Come Back Again had us in a chokehold back when they debuted fr. Their choreo was so iconic, a lot of the dance version MVs have significantly more views than the originals. BTD dance was a sensation. The Eye is such a banger imo. They have a lot of instrumentals that just go insane. Man I need songs to stop shrinking!
THX U SO MUCH FOR REACTING to them i also became a fan recently (last year) and have never looked back again they have incrediable synergy, music friendship everything u need
yup it's me again. I'm sorry cuz I'm so excited to see 2nd gen. myb you can do one day for 2nd gen discover. there's a lot of group i want to recommend but it's your channel so it's up to you 🤙
Please check out more infinite. They have so much retro and catchy songs with synchronized choreography. Check out these songs: Paradise The chaser Be mine Before the dawn Destiny ver. b Back Bad
Infinite is known for their live performances, too. You should watch them sometime, recorded or not! I really love Come back again wowow japan live (will have a copyright strike) The vocals on the bridge part were heavenly
Infinite choreos are used as the elemental kpop dance even for 4th gen, that's how big is their impact. Also their live vocals were really unmatched back then, I remember golden child mentioned they were their standard for live vocals they needed to reach as they were their juniors. Their music had a signature sound that even until today is known as infinite sound which could be seen this year when onf released bye my monster and people said it sounded like infinite and inspirits could be seen in the mvs comment section because (of course) they liked the song haha
Also a little note about the MVs of Infinite because they have a cursed trilogy, in general the concept the group had been always extremely dramatic and cinematographic they were the first group creative directed by Jaden Jeong (the same of Loona and tripleS) but Destiny, Last Romeo and The Eye had to be severely changed because of bad timing: -Destiny I would not spoil it since you haven't seen it. -Last Romeo had the theme of a flood with some references to inception and titanic just a pair of weeks before the release occured the sinking of the ferry MV Sewol were many students died so now most of the scenes happens in a library but they still hace the dance scenes with the water. -The Eye was about sects and cults... But in that moment the president of Korea had protests against her (and she eventually had to left the presidency) because she was receiving orders from a cult about gouvernamental decisions. So yes if there's some weir things in those MVs this is the reason
ommmmmmg thank youuuu! i love ur reaction actually INFINITE has many amazing hidden masterpieces the more you dive into them the more you will fall in love they are my favorite boy group ever.
oh also in "the eye" the word that was translated to "break up" can mean more like "parting" in korean, so it could be a breakup, or just going separate ways, a death, a broken friendship, etc. im not really familiar with the story of the music video/song so i cant say much about what it means there but just putting that out there that the word can mean many things rather than just romantic relationship breakup like in english!
We got a Hoya (now Howon) voice appreciator!! You've only barely brushed the surface of their discography, but I think for a 3-song dip, you got a good taste for the group's flavors and musicality. Hope you Come Back Again!
Leader Sungkyu is the soloist and he has a song called Small Talk, he is good, but my favourite vocal in this group is Nam Woohyun. I love them so much I literally cried when they came back last year after such a long break. If you decide to do part 2, my recommendation is Be Mine, Before the Dawn, Paradise.
OMG CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S HAPPENING!!!! FINALLY INFINITE Ive been asking for them for so long 🥲❤️❤️❤️ I really recommend you some dance practice! Infinite isn't called princes/kings of synchronization for nothing 🤭
BOTH Come Back Again & Last Romeo got the video blocked worldwide, so I had to add copyright filters. Sorry yall.
Thank you for all the reactions. Please react to Roll Up by BlackSwan.
all good
Teen Top 💙💙💙
SS501 💚💚💚
TVXQ! 💜💜💜
100% recommend INFINITE Be Mine, Back, The Chaser & Bad!!! All of their songs are so amazing! So glad you have checked them out!!!!

@@dawnishotterthanday4335 That's another amazing song!

Nothing's Over also good. The song is soooo cute.

Thank you for all the info ❤
ngl infinite has a top tier discography, "Back, Destiny, BTD, She's back, Paradise, Be Mine" 👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻
YES! INFINITE! I would argue that INFINITE has one of the best discographies in Kpop! Hopefully, you have these title tracks queued up for more INFINITE reactions: She's Back, BTD, Be Mine, Nothing's Over, Paradise, The Chaser, Destiny, Man in Love, Back, and Bad.

is a fact atp i have every infinite release wether unit,solo, commercial request from samsung or monster from telemonster what ever they do its sound so amazing
they have a killing voice if you want to check that out!

OMG INFINITE, my first Kpop group. 14 years and still makes people want to know more about them. So proud as an INSPIRIT 🥰
So happy to see this Infinite one of the very best 2nd gen . They were from a very small company but managed to hold their own against the big 3 . The chaser has gone down as one of the best kpop songs and was one of the first to appear on the Billboard chart to this day it’s always in the top 100 .

Like Nam Woohyun one of the main vocals of the group was the one who made the finger heart popular in the kpop scene, the most recognizable symbol of the industry and many forget who is the pioneer, and not only that: the first group in billboard Korea, the first gorup who wasn in top 10 popularity outside of the initial Big3, the group who had the most expensive MV in their time, the first group to be called kings of synchronisation and with SHINee the two base groups for choreos of the 3rd Gen. They were that group and nowadays one of the few groups who owns their name and discography and have their own company for the group promotions, still making tours and fanmeetings
INFINITE... the og when it comes to synchronization 😍
definitely recommend The Chaser and Be Mine!
New Emotional was missing the signature bridge and high note that they are known for in Infinite song but unfortunately one of the members Woohyun one of the main vocal was recovering from cancer at the time. Infinite is one of the best second generation group. They contribute so much to kpop and made what it is today. Lots of kpop boy group and girl group are their fans. They are a public friendly group. Infinite were the ones bringing synchronization and knife like dance into kpop. They are one of the best live singers that they literally sound like the CD. Woohyun one of the members populalised the finger heart. Infinite are a great group talented and funny.
In term of choreography, Infinite is No. 1 in all of K-Pop group have ever existed. They are the definition of synchronization dance!!
Infinite’s The Chaser is a quintessential kpop classic.
It’s interesting how much things have changed over the 11 years I’ve been into kpop. A lot of groups that were from medium sized companies that made a huge mark on the industry and pop culture have come and gone. So glad to see infinite back (as well as new things from BAP and Kara)
There do not seem to be as many successful groups from medium sized companies as there were in 2nd and early 3rd gen which is unfortunate.
However, there have been so many really great changes or upgrades from a creative direction standpoint over the years.
Like other comments states, I wholeheartedly recommend The Chaser aswell, Im not even an inspirit, but it's still one of the best songs that the Kpop industry has released to this day.
Yes, I love when reactors go back and give some love to older groups!! And Infinite are so deserving. They have an impeccable discography and if they had been under a bigger company I know they'd be even bigger in the industry than they were at their peak. The one thing about Infinite is how unique they are!! I don't think I've ever heard another kpop group that sounds exactly like them and their choreography is unique in this way too. New Emotions was a completely different sound for them but it still somehow sounds so Infinite.
Infinite is known for having more dramatic and darker sounding songs/concepts with The Chaser being one of the greatest kpop songs ever created, so I definitely recommend that one (as many other people already have ofc). Some other songs I recommend are "Be Mine" "Destiny" "Back, and "Bad".
Such a great reaction!!! Thank you for reacting to INFINITE, never expected you to react to my favourite group, i was so happy when i saw the thumbnail and i enjoyed it so much. If you will decide to do other reactions, after checking out title tracks also check out their b-sides, they don't have MVs but there are many great stages with their b-side tracks. They are worth it. INFINITE's discography is amazing. Also they have the funniest contents ever, especially their reality shows. Every K-pop lover should know Infinite, they are game-changers. Again thank youu!!!😁🙃
speaking of infinite's reality shows/funny contents, one of my favorites is probably infinite's showtime!! i LOVED that one and i feel like it's where i truly fell in love with the group. :')
Infinite is literally the definition of 2nd gen!! hope you react to their other songs too😆
OMG!
thanks for reacting to INFINITE, it's the first kpop group I've ever listened to and one of my favorites to date without a doubt.
I hope you can react more to them, the choreographies are amazing because you can see the incredible synchronization they have, the choreography of Last Romeo is art; INFINITE will always leave you wanting to hear more of them, their music is amazing.
greetings from Mexico, I like to see your video reactions
I've watched the "Last Romeo" dance practice sooo many times...like to the point that I think Woollim should owe me money.
INFINITE, the only group I stan in Kpop 💓🥰✨💛
As others stated, it is literal fact that Infinite were the catalyst behind the idea of synchronization. Before them everyone danced in their own style and it was seen as just how it was. But then they debuted with Come Back Again and had perfect sync that companies kind of realized it IS possible to have x amount of people in perfect synchronization and it became a thing that everyone sought to make happen in their groups. So when you see a group that's synced up beautifully, that is genuinely thanks to Infinite.
Infinite Killing Voice!
Infinite….one of my very first favorite KPop groups! The Eye made cry so much, and Bad has been playing constantly in my mind for years now! They have a Killing Voice, so you know 😊And New Emotions is a masterpiece 💖
The first song I heard by Infinite was "Be Mine" and it's such a unique sounding song! They don't get enough credit for being one of the pioneers for synchronization and strong live vocals ☹️ I hope you check out "Be Mine," "The Chaser," "Back," "Destiny," and "Bad" next!
also yes, Sungkyu was judge on Peaktime!
love to see 2nd gen here on your channel..
i also want you to react to another 2nd gen group BEAST/HIGHLIGHT next 🤩
Wow!! unexpected reaction!! Hope you will react to The Chaser, Bad and Back!! they must be your taste!! The chaser is the no.1 best kpop song of billboard 2012!
Intro is a must for Infinite's title songs just like the opening of Last Romeo. i really love the intro of The Eye which is called Eternity. It seems like a orchestra performance!!
So glad you checked out Infinite. They have one of the most solid discographies in Kpop. Not sure you can still find them but if you can check out their reality shows, they are one of the funniest Kpop groups. Really can’t help but love them. Suggest you check out their killing voice it’s super fun.
INFINITE is that inconic 2nd gen group !!! I was so happy when they cameback last year
You def should react to their killing voice :)
YESSSSSS PLEASE REACT TO MORE INFINITE
I haven’t been a kpop fan for very long but lemme tell you when I found out about this group they climbed the ult ladder so fast. I’m so happy you checked them out!!
I think infinite has the best discography among boy bands, all of their title songs are timeless classics and their albums are sooo good❤️🔥❤️🔥 “Paradise” is my fav song ever 😞😞 “The chaser” is critically acclaimed as the best kpop song in 2012 and best kpop song by a boy group in 2010s as well as one of best boy band songs of all time. I also would recommend: man in love, be mine, btd, bad, destiny, back, dna.. literally all of their title tracks. I don’t know how to explain it but their songs give a feeling that a song can’t be more perfect than that ?😭
i would highly recommend you to check their dance practices, it’s so satisfying watching them dance😭 they’re known for their synchronized dance and knife-like choreo along with their live vocals❤️🔥❤️🔥 they always have a live band in their concerts. Their performances are out of this world 🫡
For the record, the woman in the Last Romeo video is Mijoo from Lovelyz, a group belonging to the same company as Infinite.
Lovelyz's Goodnight Like Yesterday and Ah-Choo music videos feature Sungkyu and Hoya respectively.
And Baby Soul, member and leader of Lovelyz, participated in Infinite's sub-unit, "Infinite H".
LOVED YOUR REACTION, NEW EMOTIONS WAS A SONG THAT CAME OUT WHEN THEY ALL RETURNED FROM THE MILITARY
Infiniteee Chaser is their absolute best song and they also have a killing voice!! I do recommend the choreo version of chaser. i also i hope that you can check out Beast/highlight next.
Infinite? Can't complain!! This brings back so many memories, used to binge watch their content in 360p hard subs 😭
RJ!!!!!! I'm having fun. Idk if anybody already comment this but I remember reading some info on The Eye. The Korean title is Taepung (Typhoon) and through the choreography, you can see how they did a typhoon formation with a member in the middle as 'the eye' of the typhoon (whoever is in the middle is usually calm, doesn't move too much compared to the members surrounding him who act as the typhoon, requiring them to dance in an 'aggressive' type of way I must say). Regarding the lyrics, it might mean they're caught in the typhoon of the break up.
Geez, you reacting to Infinite was so unexpected but utterly pleasant. I've been watching your reactions to iKON and BigBang who are my fave YG OGs. But Infinite, my only digression from my YG boys have always had a special place in my heart. These very talented boys debuted with Come Back Again.
Things you can start with; their Killing Voice, early works Be Mine, BTD, Paradise and The Chaser. Their discography is impeccable and so is their knife-like, synchro dance moves. Their sound is always linked to being sounding very 80s but we all know a good synth when we hear one.
Sunggyu & Woohyun have solos you can check out. So does Dongwoo (after Hoya left). Dongwoo and Hoya also had their own hip hop outfit (under Infinite H). The rappers were trained by Woolim's pioneer act Epik High (who also later joined YG - I can't run away from my YG men). I hope to see more Infinite reactions!! They are definitely worth the rabbit hole fall!!
The animal in Infinite's "Come Back Again" MV is a white Fennec desert fox, just like the Fennec fox that Jennie is holding in BlackPink's "DDU-DU DDU-DU" MV.
oooo Infinite! I still listen to "The Eye" and "Bad" on my Kpop jams playlist on the regular! Also they have some of the best live vocals and harmonies of second gen. I remember there was this clip of when they were performing one time and there was a technical issue and the music cut out. They just kept singing and you tell how truly live they were and they sounded even better acapella!!
YESSS THESE 2 SONGS. My faves along with Destiny
I always recommend watching their dance practice or dance version vids so you can see the choreo and get a sense of who sings what. Their voices are all very distinctive & they have a way of highlighting the singer of each line.
Their vocal hamonization and choregraphy sync made them a stand out back then. Then the whole SM-Woolim fiasco, I enjoyed their friendship with SM groups such as exo and Shinee. They're just did a fanmeet not a while ago and its bittersweet.
why fiasco?
you should definitely check INFINITE on the killing voice after you finish with their MV's!
Thank you so much for reacting to Infinite! They have been my #1 group since 2011 when i first heard BTD. I believe one reason they came back after their unintentional 5 year hiaus with a shorter song is because Woohyun, one of the main vocals, was still recovering from having a rare form of stomach cancer.
OMG so glad that you checked them out, they are my first fav K-pop group before TXT
1:39 Yes you're right, it is "Small Talk", and yes he's one of the judges at Peak time
19:04 At this point you'll end up liking all of their voices haha but it's understandable bcs me too
21:02 The guy who's crying is L/Kim Myungsoo and yes he's an actor too
I recommend Be Mine, The Chaser, Back, Bad ✨
FINALLY an INFINITE REACTION. Please react to their other songs like BE MINE, BACK, PARADISE, BAD, TELL ME, THE CHASER...
I love Infinite they're the 1st kgroup that I watch a variety content. They were so funny and music is bomb. I still think The Chaser is one of the best kpop songs ❤
OMG YESSSS, I LOVE INFINITE, MORE PLEASE ❤❤❤❤
I‘m an INSPIRIT 💛♾️ since 2014 and they’re my favorite group. I love them all so so much 🥹 my room is literally plastered with posters of them 😂
OMG I LOVED THIS REACTION!!! PLEASE MORE INFINITE REACTIONSS
yassss the group known for their syncronized choreographies. u talked about the instruments and infinite actually release this big instrumental only album.
Thank you thank you thank you for your reaction to Infinite ❤️🔥
Omg infinteee thanks for reacting to themmmmm it brings me back 🥲🥲🥲 if you end up diing infinite again pleas do the chaser! Truly one of the best kpop song ever made!
YES!!!! Thank you so much for reacting to infinite!!!
their live performances are amazing ❤
ahhh!! Infinite!! One of my favs! Their whole discography is so good!
Glad you finally checked them out! I definitely recommend checking out Be mine, Paradise, Back and Bad, which are my favourite songs by them and it's kinda funny you managed to skip all of them 🤣
New Emotions was one of my fav comebacks last year. Definitely different than their other stuff but they took the risk & made it work for them
this was so fun to see! defo recommend their killing voice, it's so fun
I am seated for Infinite 💛
THANKS LORD
Omg im so so happy you are finally reacting to Infinite! They are amazing and have a great discography.
yey infinite can't wait for tomorrow's reaction, INFINITE is one of my ults
I'm so glad you liked them! Infinite is my nr.2 favorite kpop group ever 💖
My synchronise dances kings 🥰 "The Chaser" is still my nr.1 favorite kpop dance, ever! Also love the song of course. I would also recommend "Be mine", "Back" and "Flower".
11:33 thats my frowning face as well when listening to Infinite’s. Need to analyse all instruments 😂
They have unique sound. You’ll hear more ochestrated sound for other songs.
BACK is my top fav. PARADISE too.
Anyway, infinite is about live performance, concert. Their specialty. Killing voice is a good start
you were right every time you pointed out sungjong (the maknae), and the member whose voice you kept pointing out in the eye was hoya!!! for which four songs to listen to next, i would recommend the chaser (universally known as one of the best kpop songs of all time), be mine, btd, and back, bc that’s a good mix of lots of different styles, but all of their songs are so good so you really can’t go wrong
Please check out Man In Love, Be Mine, The Chaser, and Before The Dawn. Infinite are one of my top groups and I’m just so glad you checked them out 😁😁
Thank you very much for the reaction. This is my favorite group. Can you please do a reaction to Killing voice with infinite, I think it's a really cool opportunity to see all the members. Because everyone in this group is incredibly talented. About Kim Sumg Kyu, I think you listened to his song Small talk. If you like his voice, it would be cool if you did a reaction to Killing voice with him.
Yes I agree with everyone was infinite the first group to star with the sincronization in the choreography!!
Bir Inspirit olarak çok teşekkür ederim. Şahsen beklemiyordum. Infinite'ye💛 reaksiyon çekmene çok sevindim.
LET’S GO!!!! one of my favorite groups and easily the best discography in all of kpop
Oh legends! Come Back Again had us in a chokehold back when they debuted fr. Their choreo was so iconic, a lot of the dance version MVs have significantly more views than the originals. BTD dance was a sensation.
The Eye is such a banger imo. They have a lot of instrumentals that just go insane.
Man I need songs to stop shrinking!
you HAVE to check INFINITE's The Chaser and Back!!
THX U SO MUCH FOR REACTING to them i also became a fan recently (last year) and have never looked back again they have incrediable synergy, music friendship everything u need
the eye’s korean title is storm/typhoon so the eye is basically the eye of the storm
yup it's me again. I'm sorry cuz I'm so excited to see 2nd gen. myb you can do one day for 2nd gen discover. there's a lot of group i want to recommend but it's your channel so it's up to you 🤙
I am so happy to see your reaction to Infinite! Thank you so much! I will watch your another reaction to Infinite later! ❤
Please check out more infinite. They have so much retro and catchy songs with synchronized choreography. Check out these songs:
Paradise
The chaser
Be mine
Before the dawn
Destiny ver. b
Back
Bad
OMG! Infinite
Oh and also Sungyeol is the older brother of Daeyeol, leader of golden child
Infinite is known for their live performances, too. You should watch them sometime, recorded or not! I really love Come back again wowow japan live (will have a copyright strike) The vocals on the bridge part were heavenly
Infinite choreos are used as the elemental kpop dance even for 4th gen, that's how big is their impact. Also their live vocals were really unmatched back then, I remember golden child mentioned they were their standard for live vocals they needed to reach as they were their juniors. Their music had a signature sound that even until today is known as infinite sound which could be seen this year when onf released bye my monster and people said it sounded like infinite and inspirits could be seen in the mvs comment section because (of course) they liked the song haha
def should check out the chaser, bad and paradise!
Also a little note about the MVs of Infinite because they have a cursed trilogy, in general the concept the group had been always extremely dramatic and cinematographic they were the first group creative directed by Jaden Jeong (the same of Loona and tripleS) but Destiny, Last Romeo and The Eye had to be severely changed because of bad timing:
-Destiny I would not spoil it since you haven't seen it.
-Last Romeo had the theme of a flood with some references to inception and titanic just a pair of weeks before the release occured the sinking of the ferry MV Sewol were many students died so now most of the scenes happens in a library but they still hace the dance scenes with the water.
-The Eye was about sects and cults... But in that moment the president of Korea had protests against her (and she eventually had to left the presidency) because she was receiving orders from a cult about gouvernamental decisions.
So yes if there's some weir things in those MVs this is the reason
ommmmmmg thank youuuu! i love ur reaction actually INFINITE has many amazing hidden masterpieces the more you dive into them the more you will fall in love they are my favorite boy group ever.
So happy you finally react to INFINITE!! Please react to Be Mine, Back, Destiny and The Chaser next
Wollim is small company infinite got a lot of award just can't compete with big company, thank you✌️🇺🇲🇵🇭
oh also in "the eye" the word that was translated to "break up" can mean more like "parting" in korean, so it could be a breakup, or just going separate ways, a death, a broken friendship, etc. im not really familiar with the story of the music video/song so i cant say much about what it means there but just putting that out there that the word can mean many things rather than just romantic relationship breakup like in english!
omg ily for this reactionnnnn
INFINITE✨😆
We got a Hoya (now Howon) voice appreciator!!
You've only barely brushed the surface of their discography, but I think for a 3-song dip, you got a good taste for the group's flavors and musicality. Hope you Come Back Again!
I can pick an Infinite song from anywhere! They definitely have their own sound and they are all incredibly talented!
Leader Sungkyu is the soloist and he has a song called Small Talk, he is good, but my favourite vocal in this group is Nam Woohyun.
I love them so much I literally cried when they came back last year after such a long break.
If you decide to do part 2, my recommendation is Be Mine, Before the Dawn, Paradise.
OMG CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S HAPPENING!!!! FINALLY INFINITE Ive been asking for them for so long 🥲❤️❤️❤️
I really recommend you some dance practice! Infinite isn't called princes/kings of synchronization for nothing 🤭
I recommend Infinite's killing voice video. It really shows off their vibe and some of their most memorable songs in their discography.
someone already said it but the little animal in Come Back Again is a Fennec Desert Fox. the same one that was in that TXT storyline video for Deja Vu
Tell me why i looked behind me at 21:45 lol
Anyway, i love that you're reacting to Infinite! You should definitely check out Back and The Chaser
You should watch their KILLING VOICE ❤❤
Thanks for your reaction to Infinite
Please check infinite dingo killing voice
Thank you
