Here’s the breakdown: Bang Chan is obsessed with Felix and Seungmin, Felix is obsessed with Changbin, Changbin is obsessed with Hyunjin, Hyunjin is obsessed with I.N, Han is obsessed with Lee Know, Lee Know is obsessed with Han, I.N wants to be left alone but that will never happen because he’s the baby. 🥲
You mentioned anime at Han's part. Actually they made the opening and ending of the anime Tower of God. The 2 songs are TOP and SLUMP. You mentioned that Seungmin's voice is perfect for kdrama. He has a song called Here always that is in a kdrama called Hometown Cha Cha Cha.
30:47 han is actually the most introverted member of stray kids and has really bad social anxiety, but when he is around the members he is much more loud and comfortable
They were actually talking about Korean age and also got it wrong for Chan. Felix went to Korea when he was 16 (trained for 1 year before debut) and Chan went when he was 13. Chan moved there on his own and spent 7 years training and lived with other trainees, because his whole family were in Australia. But the other trainees kept debuting without him, left the company or were kicked out (so he knows half the industry because he trained with so many people), and at one point he was the only trainee in the company, which made him cold to new people and he was hesitant to make friends again. Luckily Han joined and he is adorable and so in your face that Chan had to be his friend, so we call Han the first Stray Kid. Chan was actually really hard on the others before they debuted to make sure they would be able to stay and debut with him. He has also said many times that Stray Kids saved him. Thinking about all this always makes me sad. He has spent half his life in Korea now without family. Before debut he visited maybe once a year (I hope). After debut they had a tour in Australia in early 2019 but then because of Covid both Chan and Felix weren't able to go there again until last August (almost 4 years later) and then recently for another tour. At least they were there for each other.
Fun fact about Changbin that wasn't mentioned when u go deeper and get to know Stray Kids well u will know that Changbin is very obsessed with Hyunjin he never misses any opportunity to flirt with Hyunjin, even at the airport and in front of reporters he has impressive courag 😂😂🤣
@@roses_are_rosee6676 yeah they are all brothers, but what Changbin does is more than bromance even Bang Chan said that before any stay can notice that.
There is a show called 2 kids room, where they have 2 members talking about their relationship, while everyone else also talks about them. You can see the different dynamics everyone has with different members if you watch all the episodes, since they did all the combinations.😉
@@darkyeosang I mentioned the "2 kids room" specifically to distinguish it from the different or older versions like "two kids room" "two kids room+1" "one kid room" "❤️ kids room" or "two kids song".
Bang Chan and Lee know indeed have unique relationship, Chan treat him as the youngest most of the time 😂 and they trust each other a lot, like very much a lot. During “thank you segments” they often choose each other to thank
Most Stray Kids songs are not so vocal heavy, but "Neverending Story/The Story That Won't End" is a very good vocal heavy song from a couple of years ago. Also, you are right, Lee Know is the second oldest. Anyway, love your reaction!
i think ur thinking of just ballads here :) a few other vocal heavy songs would be: -hero’s soup -secret secret -sorry i love you -waiting for us -taste -winter falls -voices -phobia -levanter -another day -slump -ex -my universe -gone away -scars -mixtape OH -school life -lost me -DLMLU -novel -piece of a puzzle
56:29 Felix and Bangchan actually don't have family in Korea, at least not any distant relatives that we know of, their family is in Australia, they actually did go to a whole different country basically by themselves and chan did it so young as well. This actually happens a lot with foreign idols most of them don't bring their family along. Not only do the aussie line hardly get chances to visit their family but because of Covid they couldn't see their family for 2 years. Felix predebut, actaully even when he first debuted, could hardly speak the korean language and this was a big hurdle for him to get over, as the years go on his korean got better and better and now he is fluent.
also, wasn’t felix born in australia? so he literally moved from his hometown to a place he had never been to before. unlike chan who was born in korea and moved to australia.
@@mariah.lynnxx chan still moved to australia when he was _very_ young, so he wasn't familiar with korea either. he also had to practice the language, but thankfully at least not at the same level as felix
Chan may not have close relatives in South Korea but he does have distant relatives and several of them are in the music industry. I can't find the video right now but I watched one about that showed Stray Kids success and potential to keep sky rocketing. The host of the show said he works with the MAMA's every year and so he gathers all of his distant relatives (including Chan) who are at the award show for a family picture. He said he an Chan talked about how 3 years in Chan was voicing his concerns and looking for more success for Stray Kids because that's about the time period for a K-pop group to shoot to success of fade away. The host showed out how Stray Kids when viral with God Menu and their sound solidified but he pointed to them winning Kingdom as the major change to their next album being a million seller and so on. He went on to say he was very happy for his relative Bang Chan and expected even more success for Stray Kids in 2023. This was not the same video that some people have seen which is called The Rise of Stray Kids but the two videos came out near about the same time.
@@shinhonwy very true. honestly props to both of them for being able to move to an unfamiliar place to fulfill their dreams. don’t know if i could’ve done the same.
@@mariah.lynnxx i'm gonna do kind of the same thing and move to a complete new country in a year or so, and now i kinda get what they might've felt that time.. but then again, i know the language of the country i'm gonna move to, so it's probably much easier for me :(
@@yougivemebutterfliesuk I've seen it, but it's still interesting how easily he picked up on their personality and vibes since he hasn't watched anything else yet
actually jeongin is the middle child of his siblings and seungmin only has an older sister so that might be the cause of the younger/mature vibes. seungmin is a lot more playful with the members and has a resemblance of a playful puppy whereas i.n., despite being the youngest of the group, can sometimes seem and be more mature than the rest of stray kids. as chan says, age runs backwards in stray kids and its an inside joke that i.n. is actually the leader of the group (he said once in an interview!) and even in korea, where it is tradition that the oldest of a group eats first at a meal, in stray kids, it is tradition that jeongin takes the first bite and is often seen to toast to the other members, encouraged by the rest of skz. thank you so much for taking the time to react to guides like these about stray kids. it makes stays truly happy that people not only looks at their music and their professional careers, but also take time to learn more about their personalities and traits off stage. thank you once again! (note: these info might be wrong but i think most of them are correct if you spot any errors, please dont hesitate to correct me!)
Seungmins english is very good because he spent some time in LA while he was in 4th grade. Thats because his english sound very american, Hans english has a british accent because his english teacher in malaysia spoke british too. The other members especially Hyunjin have some kind of aussie accent because they learn english from chan and felix
Han has such an interesting accent. He definitely does sound British sometimes, but I also hear American English too. Kind of just depends on the word.
When I had seen that Han was an all-rounded I was also a bit confused because they all did everything, but I think I figured it out. The members each have something they do more of in the discography, but Han is about equal in both rapping and singing.
I actually just watched all your reactions and then you dropped this today!! So fun to see you get into them, skz are absolutely rabbit hole worthy!! Your chan thing absolutely cracked me up. You're right he really likes wearing all black all the time it's a known fact of his 17:55 changbin actually started out as a vocalist! His instructor recommended him rapping bcs his loudness (? I'm forgetting the word afshk) was so intense and louder than his teacher. He is a talented dancer too, he originally started as a dancer, then singer and then took to rapping bcs he's so talented. His rap+presence is just so strong that people sort of don't get to see his other talented skills!! Han is just. Phenomenally talented. They all are, and as you said han and changbin are different type of rappers. Where changbin dominates the stage, han is witty and plays with it's audience. His charisma is basically the face of his talent, and having so much of swag (his words not mine lol) I'm sure that's why he's the ace of aces
Han is VERY introverted. He’s struggled with anxiety for a while and one time even had to take a break from fansigns and leave for some songs during concerts bc of it. He’s definitely gotten better tho and he’s very outgoing around the members , just not the best with strangers, which is one of the reasons he had such a hard time getting along with the members predebut
Yes they naturally got influenced by Aussie accent... Specially Hyunjin got some Aussie accent from Felix n in their recent Australian concerts he even introduced himself " Hello it's ur Aussie boy Hyunjin" 😂😂
36:00 Then there is good news for you, they did opening and ending for Tower of God. Han is also a big fan of the webtoon. On opening it was 3Racha working together and for ending it's made by Han. Opening song is called TOP, ending is SLUMP 1:04:00 Seungmin actually did 2 solo-project K-drama songs. Drama names: Hometown Cha Cha Cha and Love In Contract. Chan - total daddy of the group and of Stays. Loves to take care of others, gets terribly frustrated when things aren't perfect. Is the scary one when angry. Goes live every Sunday. Lee Know - 4D personality, most anti-idol persona ever. Sassy, loves to mess around and make fun of fans. Is also really savage to fans. Loves slapping others on butts (nickname Butt-Hunter). Their mom and cook. Changbin - The core of the group. He is like their inner balance. Surprisingly a total softie, loves acting cute, writes best love songs. Is terribly loud and crazily buff. Tries to make other exercise. Hyunjin - introvert who loves his peaceful time but drama llama when in mood. Loves dancing and drawing. Visits museums in his free time, often composing songs outside of 3racha members. Official leader of baboracha (idiot-racha) Han - the loud and overly-hyped one. But surprisingly biggest introvert in the group with social anxiety which he is open about. Main rapper and main vocal material. Loves to write about taboo topics in his lyrics, is the most logical and pragmatical in the group. Has most solo songs by far. Felix - the biggest softie and sunshine in the group. Loves hugs and skinship. Likes to bake. Is openly addicted to gaming and it's his way of de-stressing, but is notoriously bad at games. Did taekwondo for 12 years Seungmin - the seemingly cute and quiet time but actually the biggest menace in the group. Everyone says he is the most funny member. Does most random things ever and is savage. Most organised member who plans everything. His vocal range goes from Felix to Han (meaning super low to super high) I.N - the one that tries to survive all the affection from the others. And another savage member, using his age as weapon. Loves trot music and is expert on all love korean love songs ever released. Often called most mature in the group. Maknae on Top.
Yes, Han is an introvert. On top of that, he has crowd/social anxiety and struggles when it comes to airports (a lot of fans, cameras, etc.) and meeting new people. But when he is with his members, he is one of the loudest and funniest people in the room. He loves making his members laugh and smile. They talked about it in their show Two Kids Room (def check it out in the future, you will get better inside of their one on one dynamics). The members often say he is the life of the party. Other introverts are Hyunjin and I.N but when it comes to places with big crowds or meeting new people, he is the most introverted one.
They had a predebut mixtape in 2017 but officially debuted in 2018, there’s a lot of confusion surrounding that. Hellavator is a part of their mixtape album but they debuted with district 9 in 2018
loved your reaction, thank you for checking out this more detailed guide!! korean vowels arent really flexible like ours, seungmin is pronounced more like "soong-min", there are audio clips on youtube if you need help pronouncing their names but you're doing great so far and its okay if you make mistakes! 👍 oh and yeah sometimes the other members do sound aussie when they speak english! you might hear it in some recent english interviews. seungmin used to sound very american (like more american than me and im american lmao. he lived in the US for a few months as a kid) but now you can hear the aussie influence in a lot of his words, same with the other members to some extent. han sounds british sometimes, probably from learning english in malaysia (i think they learn UK english there) i keep editing my comment lol but to answer your question in the desc., i prefer this format, ive already seen the videos youre reacting to so i prefer being able to see your reaction better!
About your commentary on their English: Han has a British and slight American accent, Seungmin lived in LA for a bit and has an American Accent, Hyunjin is quite fluent and has a slight American/Aussie Accent. Changbin has an Aussie accent as well. If you want to see more, there’s a few vids on Stray kids speaking English and honestly it’s such a comedic relief and it’s hilarious. Should def check it out
1:12:38 ya. So IN gives off grandma vibes half the time and the others call him grandma sometimes. In Korea it’s custom for the eldest to be treated with extra respect (for example no one starts to eat till the oldest takes a bit) but in SKZ it’s reverse (no one eats until IN has the first bite). They essentially (according to Chan himself) switch the Maknea and Hyung positions, hence, Maknea on Top.
A lot of the guys who seem to have "younger brother vibes", while not the youngest in the group, are actually younger brothers in their families. Changbin, Han and Seungmin are all the youngest sibling in their families. Chan is the oldest, Felix and Innie both have one older and one younger sibling, and Lee Know and Hyunjin are only children. Normally that's not something I would really consider relevant to someone's personality, but I think the Korean emphasis on respecting elders and nurturing younger people really does translate over into how people interact with others, even as teenagers and adults. Thanks for your reactions! 💜
I forgot to mention or didn't know if anyone has mentioned to you but there was a 9th member at one point named Woojin but he left the group back in 2019. I don't want to get into specific details about his departure from the group but you can research yourself and form your own opinion. Stray Kids promote as an 8-member group and they don't acknowledge him anymore. It is a sensitive topic among Stay's. I just wanted to inform you in case you get confused down the line watching their content.
it’s so satisfying to me how much you remember from what little you’ve already watched haha no shade to other reactors or anyone, but i also have a really good memory and i just appreciate that you can recall all this stuff about each member 😂👏🏼
I dont know why i get supeer excited when people react or get to know straykids and start loving and appreciating them! It’s like living those initial days when i got into skz. I can relive the moments when i see reaction videos specially the guide ones. And out of all the reactions i feel your genuine urge to know about them and not just for the sake of reaction! Welcome to the fandom.🤍🤍
I became a STAY in November 2021 as soon as I discovered StrayKids bcuz they're just on another level of self produced creativity and geniusness. I quickly learned the names, faces and personalities of Felix, Chan, Changbin, Han and Hyunjin but it took me a little while to tell Lee Know, Seungmin and I.N apart (it's surprisingly quite common to mix those 3 up at 1st lol). I have to say your ability learn their faces, voices and names in a week is quite admirable. Chan (Leader) was 20 (after training 7 yrs) when he chose this bunch of misfit teens younger than him to be in his group. Chan is literally a genius at selecting and nurturing talent...just saying. I truly appreciate you delving deeply into my favorite group on the planet and not just doing it for views but bcuz you actually seem interested. It's really cool. As I watched your reaction I kept saying "Yes! Exactly! Me too! That's how I felt!" You didn't seem like you were reacting for the sake of reacting and you learned their names and deciphered their personalities faster then I did at first. That's a flex for you bro. I appreciate you for truly trying to get to know StrayKids. Although they are considered "kpop" bcuz they're from Korea, they've created their own genre that is completely different from traditional kpop. StrayKids changed the game. I'm truly looking forward to more StrayKids reactions from you bcuz you seem so genuine and I appreciate that ❤.
So Stray Kids are known for making A LOT of content. You're not going to be short on stuff to check out for a long time. One of the things that is not performance or music that you might truly find interesting is a series on their youtube channel called 2 Kids Room - they have each pair combination talk about their relationship, and the others are also separately talking about the relationship of the duo in a different room. You get a really good in depth look at all the dynamics in the group that from your reaction to this guide i think you would find truly interesting.
Never Clicked on a video so fast! Thank you for recording this video and again love your vibes and energy.! Chan is my bias and he does have the chocolate board abs I have seen them live in person. If you haven't noticed Chan's favourite colour is black. Red Lights is a fan favourite that features Hyunjin and Hate to Admit or Connected are great songs to check out by Bang Chan. Lee Know is the second oldest but the guide was showing each member in the units, not by age. When I first got into SKZ I was super intimidated by him but then I realized he is a super softie and teddy bear. I loved how you made connections to each member and how you were able to predict members' personalities ect. Hopefully you can react to more Stray Kids content!
SKZ are known for amazing performances, I highly recommend their KINGDOM stages, they were some of the best performances I have ever seen. 4 group performances 3 sub-unit performances all complete with amazing singing, rapping and dancing its insane, it's totally worth watching and reacting to. It was also during Kingdom in which they gained massive popularity.
When you say seungmin gives of a more younger sibling vibe then I.N, it's honestly understandable. Stray kids aside seungmin is the youngest in his family he only has an older sister meanwhile for I.N he's the middle child. He has an older brother and younger brother. So I guess even tho skz(stray kids) does baby I.N a lot, u can still feel the older brother vibe from I.N and younger brother vibe from seungmin. Extra info about their families, if anyone wants to read it: Chan is the eldest in his family. He has an younger sister and brother. Lee know and hyunjin are only childs Changbin and seungmin are both the youngest in their family and both have an older sister. Felix and I.N are both the middle childs. Felix has an older and younger sister meanwhile I.N has an older and younger brother. This is just intresting to add cuz not only adds it to their dynamics and relationship between each other, it also shows certain parts of their personality and its reasons behind it.
Honestly, Chan wearing black is the number one giveaway over whether the group was styled or not. If Chan is wearing something other than black, then I for sure know the stylist dressed them, haha. He tried to show us his closet once and it just looked like an empty void it was so full of black, lmao.
1:00:51 I am a brunette with freckles and the interesting thing I found is in England, freckles are more common in brunettes or redheads, but when I lived in Germany and on holidays etc, it’s mostly blondes and redheads with freckles. Maybe the Australian blondes with freckles are linked with the German/ Dutch background of a lot of Aussies?
Hyunjin looks different with short hair than with long hair he turns from handsome to beautiful. Mostly his hair is long he rarely cuts it in the last three years he looks very beautiful with long hair, as if he was born to have long hair but in this video he is not shown with long hair much in order to focus on His talents are more than his looks
Yay!! You looked up Quokkas 👍 Their habitat is 35km from me! They're super cute little guys but when you wake up with a Quokka in your tent going through your food bags, they're much less adorable 😅
It’s really funny that you mention that you look at the members older than Seungmin as good looking guys and Seungmin as a kid because Seungmin is actually only 7days younger than Han and 6 days younger than Felix lol
When you go deeper to know them better you will see they are such nice, loud,crazy, talented, weired crackhead's... thats exactly why we love them do much. There is not one interview or show that isn't loud and chaotic. They ate so freaking funny 😂 Maybe you will see this side in separate member compilations
I agree that Seungmin can seem the youngest. I’ve often wondered if that’s because he is the younger sibling in his family whereas I.N. is the middle of three so is and older brother to at least one. Also he is a pretty good dresser whereas Seungmin tends to wear baggy and unrevealing clothes and that extra style ingredient carries some weight.
As you said about the difference between HAN & CHANGBIN rap style is so accurate and that's one of many reasons why they're my top 2 biases... But still HAN is my number 1 ult bias, and i love his rap style the most... Not to mention his attitude, charisma, and facial expression when he rap is 👌there's just something about his presence... All members are all rounder, but HAN is more well known as the ace... Not just good at rap, sing, dance, but he EXCEL all categories on high level... Even HAN is few rappers that invited to live singing show called LEE MUJIN SERVICE which basically all idols are invited to the show are all main vocalist / the best vocalist in each group... The lee mujin show that i'm talking about is 28:23
Hope you plan on reacting to more Stray Kids because there is sooo much more, from their great music (as you know they have a huge discography), to projects such as the intro and outro songs for the anime Tower of God, or individual projects like Seungmin cover for the K-drama Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha, to Stray Kids legendary performances in the television series Kingdom or in the Japanese series The First Take. Looking forward to more Stray Kids reactions!!
Members favs Chan: Lix, Han, seungmin Leeknow: Felix, I.N and Han. Changbin: hyunjin Hyunjin: Felix and I.N Han: Leeknow, Felix Felix: Honestly he just loves everything and everyone(He likes muscles tho…..) Seungmin: He’s the only one I think who loves equally but he loves baby bread a tad more. I.N: Felix Basically everyone loves Felix and I.N
30:48 he also has anxiety wich comes to a suprise to others because he is the mood maker of the group, he preformes well infrot of others and kind to new people he meets
i feel like the reason seungmin feels younger than I.N. is because seungmin is the youngest in his family whereas I.N. is the middle child with an older brother and a younger brother. so he’s probably more used to taking on an older sibling role with his little brother.
1:11:30 …. Yes… that’s exactly how I feel with them. Even tho IN is the Maknae from the whole aura and everything especially since IN is a full grown up now and has such a mature presence (especially on stage) I feel more and more like Seungmin would be a good real Maknae. Cause I can’t think nothing else but „cute“ of Seungmin
chan and felix actually have no family in south korea, they went to the country all alone when they began to train. felix didn't even speak korean when he moved to korea to fulfil his dreams. he had to learn it as he was training.
Lee Know honestly has one of the most interesting personalities 😂I think he and Han are the funniest. You mentioned anime vibe from Han's song - Han and Lee Know love anime and OSTs from anime so both of them have solo songs with anime vibes. plus, SKZ had songs Top and Slump (one of my favorites) that were the opening and ending of anime "Tower". You will get all their dynamics pretty quickly if you watch their bts and variety but the best show for that is the latest 2 kids room from the last year
Malaysia is very dominant English speaking country spending about 8 years there he talks British English because that’s what they use over there but he picks hinges up speaking with chan and Felix
You are finding them at a perfect time. It’s a month before their next comeback album on 2 June. Their dropped trailer for 5 Star looks amazing. Go check it out.
Felix came to Korea because of his dream. But Bang chan got audition in the early age because his mom recommended him to join & he was like 'ok'. And boom after audition the JYP's staff still want to look at his music potential, so they continue at his house😂😅 that why he said in Eric interview he play piano, gitar & so on..
Lee Know tbh is a more private person than the rest of them. Actually Han too. Not much is known about them but Han’s whole works and personality covers the fact that not much is know about him.
something else is that i dont think was mentioned is that there used to be 9 members, member woojin left the group for the better and he is now a soloist!
36:05 they have 2 songs for anime Tower of God. The names TOP and Slump 👍🏻 I love the First Take version of Slump. I advise you to watch the Survival Show called Stray Kids. And I also advise you to start your journey from the beginning: pre debute song Hellevator, debute song District 9, Grrr, Mirror, My pace, Miroh, Double knot, Grow up, Chronosaurus, Victory song, Side effect, I’m you…. Ohhh so much songs😅 A separate category of my favorites m/v is Street version of songs Boxer, n/s, Question, Insomnia. It’s very fun 👍🏻 I hope you enjoy ❤
i never got into kpop but i'm starting to pick favorite stray kids members bc of these videos 😂 btw i like the circle format but it did get in the way of the text in the last video, so maybe this format for videos with text on them and the circle format for other videos?
1:04:00 he actually did record an ost for a kdrama! It's called Here Always and it was an OST for the kdrama Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha. 1:06:10 you can definitely hear an aussie accent in some of there words. Especially some of them who have improved their english a lot since debut.
This guide literally missed Felix's taekwondo skill.. My man got 63 medals for taekwondo in his 12 years of taekwondo journey.... His taekwondo kicks in choreography is phenomenal 💙
Actually Chan and Felix’s family is still in australia so they moved to korea all alone. During breaks all the other members visit their family in Korea while the two aussies spend their time together during those periods which is pretty sad because they don’t get to see their family a lot.
For anyone who was wondering: a quokka is an Australian animal. Quokkas are only found in Western Australia so it’s no surprise that he didn’t really know what they are as he is from NSW.
Changbin is actually pretty extroverted and often has a lot of energy which you will probably see more of when you get to know them more. He’s also very very very BUFF now, more than you see in this video.
We need to get you to react to Hyunjin being an aussie boy🤭😂. Although Han's English accent sounds more British than Australian but they all have that austrailan pronunciation of words😂.
Love your reactions & your explanations of Aussie things! Am low key jealous that you’re just beginning your SKZ journey… you’re in for a lot of fun! 🎉❤
Omg I didn't expect you to be from the middle east because me too!! Now I like you even more. Thanks for the great videos I always enjoy them you're such a wonderful person!❤
1:06:14 you would think that all the koran members have aussie accents but they don't, seungmin has an american accent and he and felix tease each other for their accents, han has an extremely british accent but occasionally, but in his early debut years, sounded a bit american, hyunjin, changbin and i.n sound more australian and lee know very rarely speaks english (but understands it very well)
Yes to the aussie accent thing. Some words the say definitely have an Aussie lilt to it. Prime example, changbins “don’t touch me” in the show up all night skz.
So here's some interesting factoids about each member that haven't been mentioned in any guide you've watched so far... 1)Chan has 2 younger siblings that are over 5yrs younger than he is, and he lives to troll his lil sis Hannah (who has quite the following on her socials), and because she is an awesome vicious mix of Lee Know/Seungmin in personality and gives it right back to him tenfold! He also has no concept of how handsome he is, to the point that it's sad, and is an infamous insomniac which along with stress has been causing him health issues 2) Lee Know, while being an odd sarcastic menace (literally my soul-twin), donates to various charities, sponsors numerous kids through UNICEF and keeps all their letters/drawings (started BEFORE Stray Kids), typically only buys stuff for himself that gives proceeds to good causes dear to his heart (like saving tigers). He has an extreme fear of heights, loves camping and fishing alone, has black belts (or their equivalents) in various martial arts, and prefers boxing as his main source of exercise 3) Changbin is allergic to cats and is from a wealthy family, and is a beefy 5'6" (shortest member) and has to wear lifts in his shoes sometimes to appear taller 4) Hyunjin almost got lured into a cult during his trainee days, and is the tallest member at 5'10, and has received the most amount of online hate/death threats (along with Felix) 5)Han almost got eaten by a crocodile when he was with his dad while he made a living as a jungle river tour guide in Malaysia, and has anxiety (it got so bad he had to take a short hiatus from Stray Kids at one point), and has two default settings (lazy & Energiser Bunny on speed), and loves anime (along with Lee Know and Felix) and horror movies (that he watches with Lee Know) 6)Felix is also from a wealthy family, hates being scared along with all things horror, is an avid gamer, and takes computers apart and puts them back together for fun...he also had almost zero proficiency in Korean (written AND spoken) when he moved to Korea, but now he speaks not only English and Korean, he is partially proficient in French and Japanese 7) Seungmin is the last to come from a wealthy family, and has an unconfirmed rumor going around that he survived a helicopter crashing into his home as a kid 8)I.N almost got lured into the same cult Hyunjin did during his trainee days, and had to step back from his extreme workouts trying to bulk up because it was affecting his singing voice, but as one of the tallest members (2nd only to Hyunjin) is still one of the strongest, and is super sensitive to touch especially around his neck (which is why he always tries to turn himself into a turtle when being torture-loved by the other members)
They actually have done anime opening and close with TOP and Slump for Tower of God. They also did Story without End (Neverending Story) for a Kdrama and Seungmin has also sung for a different kdrama Hometown Cha Cha Cha.
DanceRacha (Felix, Hyunjin, Lino) are the visual line of SKZ (we often call them VisualRacha). They're all super handsome tho! And yes, Lix didn't know any korean basides the basics when he came to korea. I think both him and Chris/Chan don't really have family in korea.

1:06:18 yes and no. Han switches between American, British, and Aussie accents while Seungmin and Hyunjin’s accents are very American. They joke about it a lot and they (Hyunjin mostly) often make fun of the Aussies’ accents.
Chan actually showed us his closet once on live and u couldn’t see anything in it bc it was entirely black clothes💀💀
I was about to comment the same thing😂
My answer to if he wears any other colors, my immediate answer was "if he's styled, yes".
Here’s the breakdown: Bang Chan is obsessed with Felix and Seungmin, Felix is obsessed with Changbin, Changbin is obsessed with Hyunjin, Hyunjin is obsessed with I.N, Han is obsessed with Lee Know, Lee Know is obsessed with Han, I.N wants to be left alone but that will never happen because he’s the baby. 🥲
I would add Chan is obsessed more of Lee know 😂 it’s very much seen
Hyunjin is obsessed with Felix
let's just say that everyone is obsessed with each other with innie being slightly more annoyed by skinship lol
Basically they are all are obsessed with each other to the point where they HAVE to go to the restroom together 💀
@@Linos.leebit skz missing on gda just for us to find out (from a whole another idol lmfao) that they're chilling in the bathroom >>>
Your question about the other members developing an Aussie accent is so funny because Hyunjin is lowkey starting to develop one and it’s amazing 🤣
meanwhile han is going british 😂
@@k1mmy487 seriously though 🤣
59:03 actually I would say that Felix is more like the baking guy in Stray kids, I think that the cooking guy has to be Lee know
You mentioned anime at Han's part. Actually they made the opening and ending of the anime Tower of God. The 2 songs are TOP and SLUMP. You mentioned that Seungmin's voice is perfect for kdrama. He has a song called Here always that is in a kdrama called Hometown Cha Cha Cha.
30:47 han is actually the most introverted member of stray kids and has really bad social anxiety, but when he is around the members he is much more loud and comfortable
They were actually talking about Korean age and also got it wrong for Chan. Felix went to Korea when he was 16 (trained for 1 year before debut) and Chan went when he was 13. Chan moved there on his own and spent 7 years training and lived with other trainees, because his whole family were in Australia. But the other trainees kept debuting without him, left the company or were kicked out (so he knows half the industry because he trained with so many people), and at one point he was the only trainee in the company, which made him cold to new people and he was hesitant to make friends again. Luckily Han joined and he is adorable and so in your face that Chan had to be his friend, so we call Han the first Stray Kid. Chan was actually really hard on the others before they debuted to make sure they would be able to stay and debut with him. He has also said many times that Stray Kids saved him.
Thinking about all this always makes me sad. He has spent half his life in Korea now without family. Before debut he visited maybe once a year (I hope). After debut they had a tour in Australia in early 2019 but then because of Covid both Chan and Felix weren't able to go there again until last August (almost 4 years later) and then recently for another tour. At least they were there for each other.
Fun fact about Changbin that wasn't mentioned when u go deeper and get to know Stray Kids well u will know that Changbin is very obsessed with Hyunjin he never misses any opportunity to flirt with Hyunjin, even at the airport and in front of reporters he has impressive courag 😂😂🤣
lol for real, that man has been trying to get a kiss from hyunjin since 2018 😂
@@miroh8 Yeah, you will discover that Stray Kids REALLY love one another. Like.... a lot. Lol
They all are brothers tho
there’s nothing something like that
this is called bromance
@@roses_are_rosee6676 Yeah, no one said otherwise
@@roses_are_rosee6676 yeah they are all brothers, but what Changbin does is more than bromance even Bang Chan said that before any stay can notice that.
There is a show called 2 kids room, where they have 2 members talking about their relationship, while everyone else also talks about them. You can see the different dynamics everyone has with different members if you watch all the episodes, since they did all the combinations.😉
sometimes its 3 kids
@@darkyeosang I mentioned the "2 kids room" specifically to distinguish it from the different or older versions like "two kids room" "two kids room+1" "one kid room" "❤️ kids room" or "two kids song".
Bang Chan and Lee know indeed have unique relationship, Chan treat him as the youngest most of the time 😂 and they trust each other a lot, like very much a lot. During “thank you segments” they often choose each other to thank
Most Stray Kids songs are not so vocal heavy, but "Neverending Story/The Story That Won't End" is a very good vocal heavy song from a couple of years ago. Also, you are right, Lee Know is the second oldest. Anyway, love your reaction!
i think ur thinking of just ballads here :) a few other vocal heavy songs would be:
-hero’s soup
-secret secret
-sorry i love you
-waiting for us
-taste
-winter falls
-voices
-phobia
-levanter
-another day
-slump
-ex
-my universe
-gone away
-scars
-mixtape OH
-school life
-lost me
-DLMLU
-novel
-piece of a puzzle
though I’d argue the best way to look at each of their vocal abilities would be to look at their solo projects
They actually have a lot of vocal songs, they aren't just as popular.
56:29 Felix and Bangchan actually don't have family in Korea, at least not any distant relatives that we know of, their family is in Australia, they actually did go to a whole different country basically by themselves and chan did it so young as well. This actually happens a lot with foreign idols most of them don't bring their family along. Not only do the aussie line hardly get chances to visit their family but because of Covid they couldn't see their family for 2 years.
Felix predebut, actaully even when he first debuted, could hardly speak the korean language and this was a big hurdle for him to get over, as the years go on his korean got better and better and now he is fluent.
also, wasn’t felix born in australia? so he literally moved from his hometown to a place he had never been to before. unlike chan who was born in korea and moved to australia.
@@mariah.lynnxx chan still moved to australia when he was _very_ young, so he wasn't familiar with korea either. he also had to practice the language, but thankfully at least not at the same level as felix
Chan may not have close relatives in South Korea but he does have distant relatives and several of them are in the music industry. I can't find the video right now but I watched one about that showed Stray Kids success and potential to keep sky rocketing. The host of the show said he works with the MAMA's every year and so he gathers all of his distant relatives (including Chan) who are at the award show for a family picture. He said he an Chan talked about how 3 years in Chan was voicing his concerns and looking for more success for Stray Kids because that's about the time period for a K-pop group to shoot to success of fade away. The host showed out how Stray Kids when viral with God Menu and their sound solidified but he pointed to them winning Kingdom as the major change to their next album being a million seller and so on. He went on to say he was very happy for his relative Bang Chan and expected even more success for Stray Kids in 2023. This was not the same video that some people have seen which is called The Rise of Stray Kids but the two videos came out near about the same time.
@@shinhonwy very true. honestly props to both of them for being able to move to an unfamiliar place to fulfill their dreams. don’t know if i could’ve done the same.
@@mariah.lynnxx i'm gonna do kind of the same thing and move to a complete new country in a year or so, and now i kinda get what they might've felt that time.. but then again, i know the language of the country i'm gonna move to, so it's probably much easier for me :(
26:39 if you want to see chan and hyunjin i recommend watching red lights :)
For your first introduction to skz, I'm so surprised at how accurately you picked up on the members' vibes and their relationships
@@yougivemebutterfliesuk I've seen it, but it's still interesting how easily he picked up on their personality and vibes since he hasn't watched anything else yet
@@reyduaXOyeah.i thought so too
actually jeongin is the middle child of his siblings and seungmin only has an older sister so that might be the cause of the younger/mature vibes. seungmin is a lot more playful with the members and has a resemblance of a playful puppy whereas i.n., despite being the youngest of the group, can sometimes seem and be more mature than the rest of stray kids. as chan says, age runs backwards in stray kids and its an inside joke that i.n. is actually the leader of the group (he said once in an interview!) and even in korea, where it is tradition that the oldest of a group eats first at a meal, in stray kids, it is tradition that jeongin takes the first bite and is often seen to toast to the other members, encouraged by the rest of skz. thank you so much for taking the time to react to guides like these about stray kids. it makes stays truly happy that people not only looks at their music and their professional careers, but also take time to learn more about their personalities and traits off stage. thank you once again! (note: these info might be wrong but i think most of them are correct if you spot any errors, please dont hesitate to correct me!)
Seungmins english is very good because he spent some time in LA while he was in 4th grade. Thats because his english sound very american, Hans english has a british accent because his english teacher in malaysia spoke british too. The other members especially Hyunjin have some kind of aussie accent because they learn english from chan and felix
Han has such an interesting accent. He definitely does sound British sometimes, but I also hear American English too. Kind of just depends on the word.
When I had seen that Han was an all-rounded I was also a bit confused because they all did everything, but I think I figured it out. The members each have something they do more of in the discography, but Han is about equal in both rapping and singing.
I actually just watched all your reactions and then you dropped this today!! So fun to see you get into them, skz are absolutely rabbit hole worthy!!
Your chan thing absolutely cracked me up. You're right he really likes wearing all black all the time it's a known fact of his
17:55 changbin actually started out as a vocalist! His instructor recommended him rapping bcs his loudness (? I'm forgetting the word afshk) was so intense and louder than his teacher. He is a talented dancer too, he originally started as a dancer, then singer and then took to rapping bcs he's so talented. His rap+presence is just so strong that people sort of don't get to see his other talented skills!!
Han is just. Phenomenally talented. They all are, and as you said han and changbin are different type of rappers. Where changbin dominates the stage, han is witty and plays with it's audience. His charisma is basically the face of his talent, and having so much of swag (his words not mine lol) I'm sure that's why he's the ace of aces
Han is VERY introverted. He’s struggled with anxiety for a while and one time even had to take a break from fansigns and leave for some songs during concerts bc of it. He’s definitely gotten better tho and he’s very outgoing around the members , just not the best with strangers, which is one of the reasons he had such a hard time getting along with the members predebut
yes you can also rlly see it in his vlogs
Yes they naturally got influenced by Aussie accent... Specially Hyunjin got some Aussie accent from Felix n in their recent Australian concerts he even introduced himself " Hello it's ur Aussie boy Hyunjin" 😂😂
36:00 Then there is good news for you, they did opening and ending for Tower of God. Han is also a big fan of the webtoon. On opening it was 3Racha working together and for ending it's made by Han. Opening song is called TOP, ending is SLUMP
1:04:00 Seungmin actually did 2 solo-project K-drama songs. Drama names: Hometown Cha Cha Cha and Love In Contract.
Chan - total daddy of the group and of Stays. Loves to take care of others, gets terribly frustrated when things aren't perfect. Is the scary one when angry. Goes live every Sunday.
Lee Know - 4D personality, most anti-idol persona ever. Sassy, loves to mess around and make fun of fans. Is also really savage to fans. Loves slapping others on butts (nickname Butt-Hunter). Their mom and cook.
Changbin - The core of the group. He is like their inner balance. Surprisingly a total softie, loves acting cute, writes best love songs. Is terribly loud and crazily buff. Tries to make other exercise.
Hyunjin - introvert who loves his peaceful time but drama llama when in mood. Loves dancing and drawing. Visits museums in his free time, often composing songs outside of 3racha members. Official leader of baboracha (idiot-racha)
Han - the loud and overly-hyped one. But surprisingly biggest introvert in the group with social anxiety which he is open about. Main rapper and main vocal material. Loves to write about taboo topics in his lyrics, is the most logical and pragmatical in the group. Has most solo songs by far.
Felix - the biggest softie and sunshine in the group. Loves hugs and skinship. Likes to bake. Is openly addicted to gaming and it's his way of de-stressing, but is notoriously bad at games. Did taekwondo for 12 years
Seungmin - the seemingly cute and quiet time but actually the biggest menace in the group. Everyone says he is the most funny member. Does most random things ever and is savage. Most organised member who plans everything. His vocal range goes from Felix to Han (meaning super low to super high)
I.N - the one that tries to survive all the affection from the others. And another savage member, using his age as weapon. Loves trot music and is expert on all love korean love songs ever released. Often called most mature in the group. Maknae on Top.
Yes, Han is an introvert. On top of that, he has crowd/social anxiety and struggles when it comes to airports (a lot of fans, cameras, etc.) and meeting new people.
But when he is with his members, he is one of the loudest and funniest people in the room. He loves making his members laugh and smile. They talked about it in their show Two Kids Room (def check it out in the future, you will get better inside of their one on one dynamics). The members often say he is the life of the party.
Other introverts are Hyunjin and I.N but when it comes to places with big crowds or meeting new people, he is the most introverted one.
They definitely didn’t start with a “boom” it was a long way until where they are now. It’s why we are so proud of them
They had a predebut mixtape in 2017 but officially debuted in 2018, there’s a lot of confusion surrounding that. Hellavator is a part of their mixtape album but they debuted with district 9 in 2018
loved your reaction, thank you for checking out this more detailed guide!!
korean vowels arent really flexible like ours, seungmin is pronounced more like "soong-min", there are audio clips on youtube if you need help pronouncing their names but you're doing great so far and its okay if you make mistakes! 👍
oh and yeah sometimes the other members do sound aussie when they speak english! you might hear it in some recent english interviews. seungmin used to sound very american (like more american than me and im american lmao. he lived in the US for a few months as a kid) but now you can hear the aussie influence in a lot of his words, same with the other members to some extent. han sounds british sometimes, probably from learning english in malaysia (i think they learn UK english there)
i keep editing my comment lol but to answer your question in the desc., i prefer this format, ive already seen the videos youre reacting to so i prefer being able to see your reaction better!
About your commentary on their English: Han has a British and slight American accent, Seungmin lived in LA for a bit and has an American Accent, Hyunjin is quite fluent and has a slight American/Aussie Accent. Changbin has an Aussie accent as well.
If you want to see more, there’s a few vids on Stray kids speaking English and honestly it’s such a comedic relief and it’s hilarious. Should def check it out
1:12:38 ya. So IN gives off grandma vibes half the time and the others call him grandma sometimes. In Korea it’s custom for the eldest to be treated with extra respect (for example no one starts to eat till the oldest takes a bit) but in SKZ it’s reverse (no one eats until IN has the first bite). They essentially (according to Chan himself) switch the Maknea and Hyung positions, hence, Maknea on Top.
1:06:16 the funniest thing is that han has a british accent, seugmin’s is american and only hyunjin sometimes slips in the aussie accent lol
A lot of the guys who seem to have "younger brother vibes", while not the youngest in the group, are actually younger brothers in their families. Changbin, Han and Seungmin are all the youngest sibling in their families. Chan is the oldest, Felix and Innie both have one older and one younger sibling, and Lee Know and Hyunjin are only children. Normally that's not something I would really consider relevant to someone's personality, but I think the Korean emphasis on respecting elders and nurturing younger people really does translate over into how people interact with others, even as teenagers and adults.
Thanks for your reactions! 💜
I forgot to mention or didn't know if anyone has mentioned to you but there was a 9th member at one point named Woojin but he left the group back in 2019. I don't want to get into specific details about his departure from the group but you can research yourself and form your own opinion. Stray Kids promote as an 8-member group and they don't acknowledge him anymore. It is a sensitive topic among Stay's. I just wanted to inform you in case you get confused down the line watching their content.
it’s so satisfying to me how much you remember from what little you’ve already watched haha no shade to other reactors or anyone, but i also have a really good memory and i just appreciate that you can recall all this stuff about each member 😂👏🏼
I dont know why i get supeer excited when people react or get to know straykids and start loving and appreciating them! It’s like living those initial days when i got into skz. I can relive the moments when i see reaction videos specially the guide ones.
And out of all the reactions i feel your genuine urge to know about them and not just for the sake of reaction!
Welcome to the fandom.🤍🤍
I became a STAY in November 2021 as soon as I discovered StrayKids bcuz they're just on another level of self produced creativity and geniusness. I quickly learned the names, faces and personalities of Felix, Chan, Changbin, Han and Hyunjin but it took me a little while to tell Lee Know, Seungmin and I.N apart (it's surprisingly quite common to mix those 3 up at 1st lol). I have to say your ability learn their faces, voices and names in a week is quite admirable. Chan (Leader) was 20 (after training 7 yrs) when he chose this bunch of misfit teens younger than him to be in his group. Chan is literally a genius at selecting and nurturing talent...just saying. I truly appreciate you delving deeply into my favorite group on the planet and not just doing it for views but bcuz you actually seem interested. It's really cool. As I watched your reaction I kept saying "Yes! Exactly! Me too! That's how I felt!" You didn't seem like you were reacting for the sake of reacting and you learned their names and deciphered their personalities faster then I did at first. That's a flex for you bro. I appreciate you for truly trying to get to know StrayKids. Although they are considered "kpop" bcuz they're from Korea, they've created their own genre that is completely different from traditional kpop. StrayKids changed the game. I'm truly looking forward to more StrayKids reactions from you bcuz you seem so genuine and I appreciate that ❤.
So Stray Kids are known for making A LOT of content. You're not going to be short on stuff to check out for a long time. One of the things that is not performance or music that you might truly find interesting is a series on their youtube channel called 2 Kids Room - they have each pair combination talk about their relationship, and the others are also separately talking about the relationship of the duo in a different room. You get a really good in depth look at all the dynamics in the group that from your reaction to this guide i think you would find truly interesting.
Never Clicked on a video so fast! Thank you for recording this video and again love your vibes and energy.! Chan is my bias and he does have the chocolate board abs I have seen them live in person. If you haven't noticed Chan's favourite colour is black. Red Lights is a fan favourite that features Hyunjin and Hate to Admit or Connected are great songs to check out by Bang Chan. Lee Know is the second oldest but the guide was showing each member in the units, not by age. When I first got into SKZ I was super intimidated by him but then I realized he is a super softie and teddy bear. I loved how you made connections to each member and how you were able to predict members' personalities ect. Hopefully you can react to more Stray Kids content!
SKZ are known for amazing performances, I highly recommend their KINGDOM stages, they were some of the best performances I have ever seen.
4 group performances
3 sub-unit performances
all complete with amazing singing, rapping and dancing its insane, it's totally worth watching and reacting to. It was also during Kingdom in which they gained massive popularity.
When you say seungmin gives of a more younger sibling vibe then I.N, it's honestly understandable. Stray kids aside seungmin is the youngest in his family he only has an older sister meanwhile for I.N he's the middle child. He has an older brother and younger brother. So I guess even tho skz(stray kids) does baby I.N a lot, u can still feel the older brother vibe from I.N and younger brother vibe from seungmin.
Extra info about their families, if anyone wants to read it:
Chan is the eldest in his family. He has an younger sister and brother.
Lee know and hyunjin are only childs
Changbin and seungmin are both the youngest in their family and both have an older sister.
Felix and I.N are both the middle childs. Felix has an older and younger sister meanwhile I.N has an older and younger brother.
This is just intresting to add cuz not only adds it to their dynamics and relationship between each other, it also shows certain parts of their personality and its reasons behind it.
Honestly, Chan wearing black is the number one giveaway over whether the group was styled or not. If Chan is wearing something other than black, then I for sure know the stylist dressed them, haha. He tried to show us his closet once and it just looked like an empty void it was so full of black, lmao.
Chan likes black and mostly wears black if he is not styled
that's why felix called him a reaper in chanlix 2kr!
1:00:51 I am a brunette with freckles and the interesting thing I found is in England, freckles are more common in brunettes or redheads, but when I lived in Germany and on holidays etc, it’s mostly blondes and redheads with freckles. Maybe the Australian blondes with freckles are linked with the German/ Dutch background of a lot of Aussies?
I love how you immediately noticed that Chan wears black clothes 99% of the time😂
I think the recuriters heard felix speak and did not bother to ask him to sing. 57:13
Hyunjin looks different with short hair than with long hair he turns from handsome to beautiful.
Mostly his hair is long he rarely cuts it in the last three years he looks very beautiful with long hair, as if he was born to have long hair but in this video he is not shown with long hair much in order to focus on His talents are more than his looks
Han, changbin and seungmin has that younger/youngest brother vibes coz they are the youngest in their family. I.n. tho is the middle child.
1:06:11 YES 😭 Hyunjin definitely has an aussie accent where as Han sounds more british. I'd say Seungmin has more of an american accent
43:16 - oh you are so right, those two actually very close and Chan calling Lee know his youngest and maknae XД
Yay!! You looked up Quokkas 👍 Their habitat is 35km from me! They're super cute little guys but when you wake up with a Quokka in your tent going through your food bags, they're much less adorable 😅
It’s really funny that you mention that you look at the members older than Seungmin as good looking guys and Seungmin as a kid because Seungmin is actually only 7days younger than Han and 6 days younger than Felix lol
When you go deeper to know them better you will see they are such nice, loud,crazy, talented, weired crackhead's... thats exactly why we love them do much. There is not one interview or show that isn't loud and chaotic. They ate so freaking funny 😂
Maybe you will see this side in separate member compilations
43:16 if Bang Chan is the dad, Lee Know is definitely the mom. ❤
I agree that Seungmin can seem the youngest. I’ve often wondered if that’s because he is the younger sibling in his family whereas I.N. is the middle of three so is and older brother to at least one. Also he is a pretty good dresser whereas Seungmin tends to wear baggy and unrevealing clothes and that extra style ingredient carries some weight.
can’t wait for you to get to know the members better and change the way you view some of them😁
As you said about the difference between HAN & CHANGBIN rap style is so accurate and that's one of many reasons why they're my top 2 biases...
But still HAN is my number 1 ult bias, and i love his rap style the most... Not to mention his attitude, charisma, and facial expression when he rap is 👌there's just something about his presence...
All members are all rounder, but HAN is more well known as the ace... Not just good at rap, sing, dance, but he EXCEL all categories on high level... Even HAN is few rappers that invited to live singing show called LEE MUJIN SERVICE which basically all idols are invited to the show are all main vocalist / the best vocalist in each group... The lee mujin show that i'm talking about is 28:23
Hope you plan on reacting to more Stray Kids because there is sooo much more, from their great music (as you know they have a huge discography), to projects such as the intro and outro songs for the anime Tower of God, or individual projects like Seungmin cover for the K-drama Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha, to Stray Kids legendary performances in the television series Kingdom or in the Japanese series The First Take. Looking forward to more Stray Kids reactions!!
Changbin actually started out singing until he was recommended to start rap
10:11 he really likes black 🤣🤣he once showed stays his wardrobe and we thought it was empty because everything was black. It was hilarious 😂
Members favs
Chan: Lix, Han, seungmin
Leeknow: Felix, I.N and Han.
Changbin: hyunjin
Hyunjin: Felix and I.N
Han: Leeknow, Felix
Felix: Honestly he just loves everything and everyone(He likes muscles tho…..)
Seungmin: He’s the only one I think who loves equally but he loves baby bread a tad more.
I.N: Felix
Basically everyone loves Felix and I.N
30:48 he also has anxiety wich comes to a suprise to others because he is the mood maker of the group, he preformes well infrot of others and kind to new people he meets
1:05:54 so basically hyunjin has a Aussie accent and han has a British accent😭
i feel like the reason seungmin feels younger than I.N. is because seungmin is the youngest in his family whereas I.N. is the middle child with an older brother and a younger brother. so he’s probably more used to taking on an older sibling role with his little brother.
1:11:30 …. Yes… that’s exactly how I feel with them. Even tho IN is the Maknae from the whole aura and everything especially since IN is a full grown up now and has such a mature presence (especially on stage) I feel more and more like Seungmin would be a good real Maknae. Cause I can’t think nothing else but „cute“ of Seungmin
chan and felix actually have no family in south korea, they went to the country all alone when they began to train. felix didn't even speak korean when he moved to korea to fulfil his dreams. he had to learn it as he was training.
Lee Know honestly has one of the most interesting personalities 😂I think he and Han are the funniest.
You mentioned anime vibe from Han's song - Han and Lee Know love anime and OSTs from anime so both of them have solo songs with anime vibes. plus, SKZ had songs Top and Slump (one of my favorites) that were the opening and ending of anime "Tower".
You will get all their dynamics pretty quickly if you watch their bts and variety but the best show for that is the latest 2 kids room from the last year
10:29 So basically he joined JYP when he was 14
1:06:21 yeah actually they do have a little aussie accent! I definetly think that Hyunjin has been aussified. 😆
1:11:30 it’s because he’s originally a middle child in his family lol he doesn’t know how to act like the youngest
Malaysia is very dominant English speaking country spending about 8 years there he talks British English because that’s what they use over there but he picks hinges up speaking with chan and Felix
1:04:07 Seungmin does sing the ots of the kdrama Home Town Cha-Cha-Cha. Highly recommend watching and the song (Here Always) is amazing
I loved the way you connected the facts about the members because everything you said is completely true
You are finding them at a perfect time. It’s a month before their next comeback album on 2 June. Their dropped trailer for 5 Star looks amazing. Go check it out.
24:03 funny you say this (I LOVE YOU FOR SAYING THIS) because he was always called fat and ugly
Felix came to Korea because of his dream. But Bang chan got audition in the early age because his mom recommended him to join & he was like 'ok'. And boom after audition the JYP's staff still want to look at his music potential, so they continue at his house😂😅 that why he said in Eric interview he play piano, gitar & so on..
24:27 yes and no, chan in blonde hair is like an angel and nowadays changbin is also a literally an angel, like look at him in fnf
Lee Know tbh is a more private person than the rest of them. Actually Han too. Not much is known about them but Han’s whole works and personality covers the fact that not much is know about him.
something else is that i dont think was mentioned is that there used to be 9 members, member woojin left the group for the better and he is now a soloist!
Chan's wardrobe is a void because there is no other color. He's shown us 😆
36:05 they have 2 songs for anime Tower of God. The names TOP and Slump 👍🏻 I love the First Take version of Slump.
I advise you to watch the Survival Show called Stray Kids. And I also advise you to start your journey from the beginning: pre debute song Hellevator, debute song District 9, Grrr, Mirror, My pace, Miroh, Double knot, Grow up, Chronosaurus, Victory song, Side effect, I’m you…. Ohhh so much songs😅
A separate category of my favorites m/v is Street version of songs Boxer, n/s, Question, Insomnia. It’s very fun 👍🏻
I hope you enjoy ❤
i never got into kpop but i'm starting to pick favorite stray kids members bc of these videos 😂
btw i like the circle format but it did get in the way of the text in the last video, so maybe this format for videos with text on them and the circle format for other videos?
1:04:00 he actually did record an ost for a kdrama! It's called Here Always and it was an OST for the kdrama Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha.
1:06:10 you can definitely hear an aussie accent in some of there words. Especially some of them who have improved their english a lot since debut.
This guide literally missed Felix's taekwondo skill.. My man got 63 medals for taekwondo in his 12 years of taekwondo journey....
His taekwondo kicks in choreography is phenomenal 💙
Actually Chan and Felix’s family is still in australia so they moved to korea all alone. During breaks all the other members visit their family in Korea while the two aussies spend their time together during those periods which is pretty sad because they don’t get to see their family a lot.
For anyone who was wondering: a quokka is an Australian animal. Quokkas are only found in Western Australia so it’s no surprise that he didn’t really know what they are as he is from NSW.
Changbin is actually pretty extroverted and often has a lot of energy which you will probably see more of when you get to know them more. He’s also very very very BUFF now, more than you see in this video.
We need to get you to react to Hyunjin being an aussie boy🤭😂. Although Han's English accent sounds more British than Australian but they all have that austrailan pronunciation of words😂.
Love your reactions & your explanations of Aussie things! Am low key jealous that you’re just beginning your SKZ journey… you’re in for a lot of fun! 🎉❤
15:48 you’ve discovered one of the biggest Bang Chan memes very early on. Yes. We believe his closet just looks like a black hole.
This guide reaction is so cool, I really enjoyed watching 👍👍👍
Stray Kids everywhere all around the world ✨️ You make Stray Kids stay ✨️
Omg I didn't expect you to be from the middle east because me too!!
Now I like you even more.
Thanks for the great videos I always enjoy them you're such a wonderful person!❤
1:06:14 you would think that all the koran members have aussie accents but they don't, seungmin has an american accent and he and felix tease each other for their accents, han has an extremely british accent but occasionally, but in his early debut years, sounded a bit american, hyunjin, changbin and i.n sound more australian and lee know very rarely speaks english (but understands it very well)
Yes to the aussie accent thing. Some words the say definitely have an Aussie lilt to it. Prime example, changbins “don’t touch me” in the show up all night skz.
So here's some interesting factoids about each member that haven't been mentioned in any guide you've watched so far...
1)Chan has 2 younger siblings that are over 5yrs younger than he is, and he lives to troll his lil sis Hannah (who has quite the following on her socials), and because she is an awesome vicious mix of Lee Know/Seungmin in personality and gives it right back to him tenfold! He also has no concept of how handsome he is, to the point that it's sad, and is an infamous insomniac which along with stress has been causing him health issues
2) Lee Know, while being an odd sarcastic menace (literally my soul-twin), donates to various charities, sponsors numerous kids through UNICEF and keeps all their letters/drawings (started BEFORE Stray Kids), typically only buys stuff for himself that gives proceeds to good causes dear to his heart (like saving tigers). He has an extreme fear of heights, loves camping and fishing alone, has black belts (or their equivalents) in various martial arts, and prefers boxing as his main source of exercise
3) Changbin is allergic to cats and is from a wealthy family, and is a beefy 5'6" (shortest member) and has to wear lifts in his shoes sometimes to appear taller
4) Hyunjin almost got lured into a cult during his trainee days, and is the tallest member at 5'10, and has received the most amount of online hate/death threats (along with Felix)
5)Han almost got eaten by a crocodile when he was with his dad while he made a living as a jungle river tour guide in Malaysia, and has anxiety (it got so bad he had to take a short hiatus from Stray Kids at one point), and has two default settings (lazy & Energiser Bunny on speed), and loves anime (along with Lee Know and Felix) and horror movies (that he watches with Lee Know)
6)Felix is also from a wealthy family, hates being scared along with all things horror, is an avid gamer, and takes computers apart and puts them back together for fun...he also had almost zero proficiency in Korean (written AND spoken) when he moved to Korea, but now he speaks not only English and Korean, he is partially proficient in French and Japanese
7) Seungmin is the last to come from a wealthy family, and has an unconfirmed rumor going around that he survived a helicopter crashing into his home as a kid
8)I.N almost got lured into the same cult Hyunjin did during his trainee days, and had to step back from his extreme workouts trying to bulk up because it was affecting his singing voice, but as one of the tallest members (2nd only to Hyunjin) is still one of the strongest, and is super sensitive to touch especially around his neck (which is why he always tries to turn himself into a turtle when being torture-loved by the other members)
They actually have done anime opening and close with TOP and Slump for Tower of God. They also did Story without End (Neverending Story) for a Kdrama and Seungmin has also sung for a different kdrama Hometown Cha Cha Cha.
Basically hellevator was the pre debut which was in 2017 and 2018 was their official debut with district 9.
Thank you for this reaction. ❤️ I love stray kids so much.
DanceRacha (Felix, Hyunjin, Lino) are the visual line of SKZ (we often call them VisualRacha). They're all super handsome tho!
And yes, Lix didn't know any korean basides the basics when he came to korea. I think both him and Chris/Chan don't really have family in korea.
For Skz reactions, the longer the better 😎
yess stays will watch the longer content

1:06:18 yes and no. Han switches between American, British, and Aussie accents while Seungmin and Hyunjin’s accents are very American. They joke about it a lot and they (Hyunjin mostly) often make fun of the Aussies’ accents.
Thank you to react to this stray kids guide! Love Stray kids. They are so talented
