I know you all want to see the official MV reaction so IM SORRY I want to explain myself… I’m aware this isn’t the official MV. I basically picked the wrong video (not knowing anything about this group) and chose the performance video by accident! After going to upload it I started seeing the official MV thumbnail everywhere and at the point it was too late to react to the official MV. Redoing a reaction is NOT what I do. So to avoid losing integrity of a genuine reaction I uploaded this anyways and will be doing a MV reaction soon!! TLDR; Watched the performance on accident, will be releasing a MV reaction very soon!
don't worry, it's an honest mistake since you're new here so the algorithm still doesn't know what to show you. Also its good to react to the performance or the lyric video first, so you get the song and/or the choreography better since Stray Kids MVs are another kind of visual experience. Happy to have you here!
You are not first. You might have added mv reaction straight away before uploading, i thought you would as thumbnail was right there, you were looking at it and we were just in half of video, but it is ok, dont worry, next time
I think watching the CCBoom music video for the first time is still a genuine VIDEO reaction. After all, if you were just interested in the music, then your channel would only have lyric or album stills. I say go for it and have a disclaimer at the start if you want - we will forgive you! We love watching/listening to Stray Kids, so why would we complain at a repeat?
You kow what as a STAY I actually really appreciate that you accidently reacted to the performance video ... don't get me wrong the MV is amazing ... but so many people react to it, so this is different, also you can focus on their perfomance and the song straight away without being captivated by Marvel characters, which means when you do see the MV you can appreciate that without having to worry about reading lyrics etc... either way I think most STAY like me appreciate all SKZ content .
Stray Kids are very experimental and popular, they produce themselves. In South Korea, their music is called construction, noisy because their music is not like typical k-pop. If you want rap from these guys, it could be "muddy water" (old school rap, performed by four members, there's that guy with a low voice, his name is Felix ,he's Australian like the band leader ), "topline" (feat with Tiger JK- the godfather of rap), "maze of memories" (rap by all participants)"easy", "megaverse", "slump" (lyrics), and from their production sub unit 3racha - "heyday", "zone", "3racaha", "we go" -all this is hip hop, they also have in the group the fastest rapper in the k-pop industry is Changbin .You can listen to his solo "doodle" or his feat with Milli and F.Hero (they are Thai rappers) "mirror mirror". well, if something is straight experimental from the guys, it's from the new album "Jjam" (electronics) from older works "Side effects" (this is the first k-pop work combining itself, Hip-hop, Electronics and Psychedelic trance), "The Tortoise and the Hare" (the song was written by one of the participants drunk, this song is underestimated, for me the song is one of the best), "cover me" (lyrics)"Lose My Breat" (the whole song is in English, as a feat with Charlie Puth), they also have a job with Lil Durk remix on "all my life".If something is dancing "Domino", "S class", "Lalalala ", " chk chk boom"-video clip(deadpool himself appears in the video, since the band leader Bangchan is friends with Ryan) they certainly have many other genre songs, well, I think it's worth stopping for now. They also have the sound track to deadpool "slash", which contained fire as well as rap.
4:50 it’s Felix (my fav lol)! Idk if stray kids has a “main guy” really because they all kinda do it all (and pretty well at that), but the “leader” is bang chan/chris (guy in the middle here 5:49), felix or hyunjin are usually the most recognizable for people/new stays, and han is considered the “ace” anyway, welcome to stayville! I’m pretty new to it too, but it’s a great community for sure
They performed this song for the AMA Awards a few weeks ago. They also did as a tribute to past Boy groups mixed it with N’sync’s Bye Bye Bye and even included the choreography. They also have done songs as OST for Anime(Tower of God), Kdrama and even the Deadpool Wolverine movie and recently released a song for Arcana ft young Miko and Tom Morello
omg stray kids!!!! i’m sure someone will appear with a paragraph explaining their entire lives, but… the guy you said was the main guy is felix! he’s australian and part of the dance line but he just has such main character energy!!! they’re actually an 8 member group under one of the three big korean labels, jype. what makes them unique is that they were actually self-formed. bang chan (who sang the 2nd “chaos we so catastrophic” right after felix’s chorus) chose every member and fought for their debut. (he’s also australian, everyone else is from korea). another selling point is they write and produce almost EVERYTHING they put out themselves. both these things are unheard of in kpop, chan was just such a prodigy he got to do it! they debuted in 2018 and they range from 27 to 23. they are my favorite group so i’m so happy you liked them!!!!!!!
oh also, this isn’t a music video, it’s a dance performance video. still really fun but the actual m/v is CRAZY. stray kids are known to have insane music videos, so id highly encourage you to check one out! that’s what originally got me into them.
LAST COMMENT! (lol not trying to spam!) but if you’re interested in checking out more, they have songs (and m/vs) in basically every genre. some may be hit or miss because they tend to have a very loud signature style, but i think there’s really something for everyone: s-class is a huge mix of different genres and highlights many of the members god’s menu put them on the map and honestly changed kpop in a lot of ways. it’s a crazy song and you will probably love felix by the end of it. la la la la is a bit more edm? VERY catchy top line is MY favorite stray kids song. a bit more rap-focused, super catchy and amazing from the get-go others you cannot go wrong with: maniac, thunderous, social path (featuring japanese singer LiSA!) if you want something CRAZY/out there: cheese, christmas evel, super bowl they have a hugeeeee discography considering how short they’ve been in the business, so this barely scratches the surface, but i hope you continue reacting to music, even if it’s not stray kids! i really like your vibe :)
Definitely check out their actual M/Vs- they are the Kings of Transitions! So glad you enjoyed them. I was lucky enough to see them Live twice last month at their Melbourne and Sydney concerts and OMG they are just as brilliant live!!
The god in the button up vest (the button is barely holding on) is the leader, Bang Chan (real name Chris) he's the main guy, the boss, the everything!
Not choosing to watch the music video is wild...the performance video is excellent and all, but the music video is ICONIC. I'd recommend checking that one out instead. Back story on the m/v....Bang Chan (leader) and Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool) have been internet friends since 2021. He is a HUGE fan of SKZ. He even gets his company, Maximum Effort, to do a video for Chan's birthday every year in October. The most recent one literally pulled up a commercial Chan did as a child to use in the edit. They are deep in the fandom. SKZ are known for insane transitions in their m/vs. I'd recommend Lalalala, Maniac, S-Class, God's Menu, Megaverse, Mountains, Venom, and Thunderous to get a sense of their core style and music videos. They produce their own music so they have a very vast discography. Also, since you are a fan of BlackPink, Bang Chan and Lisa have been friends since they were teens. Chan used to do regular lives where he would listen to music and talk about stuff. Whenever Lisa or BlackPink had new music, he was hyping them up on stream. Lol there is a huge crossover between InSomnias and Stays.
I am still thinking on how to tell you about last seven years with SKZ. We laughed with them, we cried with them, we grown up with them and had come from a very long journey with them and believe me the road was and is still very bumpy. First thing should be telling you on basics about them: They are a group of eight members. Each of them can sing, rap and dance very well. They produce their own music and this is their main power in the industry. Names are Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin and I.N. Fandom name is STAY. The group formed in 2017, debuted in 2018. Bang Chan is the leader and he handpicked each of the members himself and this is a first (and the only) in the industry. Each member has their unique specialties and all are very talented. For example the guy you thought as the main guy is Felix and he has the deepest voice in K-pop, but he can go high as well. Hyunjin is a genius dancer as well as a talented artist, his paintings are beautiful. Everyone accepted Han as the ACE of K-pop he can do everything flawlessly. Bang Chan is a genius producer and leader. He has all Stays' hearts. Changbin is one of the fastest rappers but you should listen him sing, its paradise, also he is a really good lyricist. Lee Know is a flawless dancer and a very good choreographer, he also has a giant heart but doesn't accept that fact. Seungmin has the voice of an angel and a very hardworking person. When you listen I.N. you cannot figure out if its live or playback he is perfect, also he was just 16 years old when we knew him so we see him as our baby. I won't suggest any tracks, just pick one and enjoy. Their discography is very rich. I would like to write more but am too old and a bit lazy. So younger Stays please take the flag and continue from where I left off.
Hi, new here, found your channel today. I’ve gone back to follow your whole K-pop journey, but so glad you found Stray Kids. They are my ults, just so talented and creative, and they’re self produced, which is not often the case in the industry. But I like that because it means they tell their own story. Looking forward to following your journey. Subscribed for more Stray Kids and K-pop in general.
Hi!! Thanks so much for your support and the sub! :) I’m so happy to share this journey for Stays like yourself and kpop fans in general!! You joined in on the journey at a great time! I just released my stray kids guide reaction video (a bit lengthy) but I’m going down the rabbit hole! Cheers! 🙌🏻 😊
@ Oh I stayed and watched all the K-pop before watching the guide, which is how I found your channel! RUclips knows I watch it every other day on a new channel so I get fed reactions to the guide regularly and that’s how I found you. But I like to see a reactors journey from the start, so I went back to your very first K-pop video, APT!
Stray Kids is one of the few boy groups I follow. I think they were the first group i found after Blackpink when I stumbled onto their song God's Menu (you should definitely check it out) which is still my favorite song of theirs. They're around the same age as the younger Dreamcatcher members, 23 - 27-ish.
@vhsVin just wanted to mention they debuted 6.5 years ago. Pre-debut was when they were 16 to 20 they have over 200 songs released and not a single miss.
10:19 also my favorite part, I knew it was gonna be this part. I'd give it 5.5/8 (I like the song, and listen to it, but I like other songs more) One of the few male groups I follow, I would like to recommend the song that got me into Stray Kids "God's Menu"
Thank you so much for checking out stray kids. Stay is the fandom name. Its a great motto and a play on words. Stray kids represent anyone who feels like they dont fit any anywhere. Like a family of misfits. The motto is calling all stray kids everywhere around the world, for we (the fans) are what keeps them going. They are a self producing group, meaning the write, and compose 99% of their own music. They lovto experiment with their music. 2 members are from Australia, (Felix, and Bang chan, the leader). The leader trained for 7 years, starting at the age 15 years old. He has a lot of friends in K-pop, including Lisa from Black Pink. I hope you watch the official mv for chk chk boom. Not only do they have amazing music, but their music videos are some of the best ever in K-pop. If you think they look young now, what till you see them from 2018 when they debuted. Lol hope to see more stray kids reactions. Welcome to Stayville.❤❤
Great reaction! All eight members of SKZ sing, rap, dance, write and produce with 3Racha doing most of the writing and producing. They are almost completely self produced and write their own songs and raps. While there are no set positions there are subgroups. 3Racha is Bang Chan, Changbin and Han. Danceracha is Lee Know, Hyunjin and Felix. Vocalracha is Seungman and I.N. In addition there is a rap line of Changbin, Hyunjin, Han and Felix and a vocal line of Bang Chan, Lee Know, Seungmin and I.N. Currently aged 23 to 27, they debuted in 2018. Felix and Bang Chan are Korean Australian so their first language is English but all members have some fluency in English and English will be mixed into a lot of their songs. They also have all English songs and Japanese songs and have thrown in some Spanish and the ocasional French. Their title tracks tend to be aggressive and high energy (Lalalala, Maniac, God's Menu are just a few) but their other songs can be most any genre. All their title tracks have impressive mvs but a lot of their b sides will too with some being almost a mini movie (Megaverse, Freeze, Venom to name a few). There are also dance practice videos and they sound amazing live. They recently headlined Lolla Chicago, IDays and BST Hyde Park and are currently on their world tour and just dropped a new Japanese album. They have songs for the Deadpool Wolverine, Revenge, Arcane and Tower of God soundtracks this year. Since you mentioned fashion a few fun fashion facts. SKZ are ambassadors for Tommy Hillfiger and attended the MetGala this year as the first kpop group to do so. W Korea May 2024 cover collab with eight different designers. Bang Chan/Fendi, Lee Know/Gucci, Changbin/Dolce & Gabbana, Hyunjin/Versace, Han/Balmain, Felix/LV, Seungmin/Loewe, I.N./Alexander McQueen. Lee Know, Hyunjin, Felix, Seungmin and I.N. have also attended fashion weeks. Felix @ 2:26 is the member you mentioned. Often recognized for his "cave bass" voice but has a wide vocal range all the way to a beautiful falsetto. 24 KOMCA writing credits. Global Ambassador for Louis Vuitton and walked the runway this year. Also Goodwill Ambassador for Unicef. Han @ 2:36 main rapper with crazy flow also provides a lot of the vocals.163 KOMCA writing credits. Changbin @ 2:45 main rapper with crazy flow and among the fastest rappers worldwide. 168 KOMCA writing credits. I.N. @ 2:56 beautiful vocals often in a higher range and the youngest member of the group, referred to as a maknae. 22 KOMCA. Attended fashion shows for Alexander McQueen and Bottega Venetta but no official announcement. Seungmin @ 2:59 beautiful vocals and solo OSTs along with the group OSTs. 22 KOMCA. Attended fashion show for Loewe but no official announcement. Bang Chan @ 3:05 oldest in the group and the leader. He selected each member of the group in the survival show of the same name. He has the most writing credits of the group with 200 writing credits. Hyunjin @ 3:12 versatile rapper and singer, always dancing, a talented artist and a Versace and Cartier global ambassador. 28 KOMCA. Lee Know @ 4:03 beautiful singer including great falsettos, was a backup dancer for BTS, leads a lot of the dance practices and helps with choreography. 18 KOMCA. Attended fashion show for Gucci but no official announcement.
Thanks for the reaction! I hope you go down the SKZ rabbit hole. Be forewarned, however, Stray Kids are *anything but* “typical”. Also, watching an MV of the same song counts as a new reaction because their MVs are an entirely different experience.
I keep seeing new Stray Kids reactors choosing the dance performance video first, which I find really interesting considering the cameos in the MV! But I love all of their performances and it's fun to see the whole choreo. Definitely dive deeper, these guys are incredible and not just in terms of their talent. I would venture to say that it would be difficult to find other MVs that rival theirs in terms of production skill and value, and their songs are so incredibly fun, unique, and thought-provoking. In terms of members, if you freeze the video at the first zoom out where you can see all of the members, starting from the right: -BANGCHAN (aka Chan, Christopher): As has already been stated, he is the leader and a member of 3RACHA, the production/rap aspect of the group. -SEUNGMIN (aka Puppy): VocalRACHA, known for his stable vocals and frequently requested on K-Drama soundtracks. -CHANGBIN (aka Binnie): A member of the 3RACHA and a main rapper. Frequently opens their songs with his hard-hitting bars. -FELIX (center, front)(aka Yongbok): The guy you keep calling "the main member" (there isn't a main member in Stray Kids, they are all 'all-rounders' with their own colors). Part of the visual line and the DanceRACHA. Known for his insanely low vocals that do not match his face and one of the two Aussies. Believe it or not, he almost didn't debut with them! -I.N (center, back)(aka Fox/Baby Bread): The Maknae of the group, member of the VocalRACHA. -(I know, you know, we know) LEE KNOW: Part of the DanceRACHA and primary choreographer. Also almost did not debut with them. -HYUNJIN (aka The Prince): Visual line, DanceRACHA. Famous for his dramatic dance and facial expressions. -HAN (aka Quokka): Member of the 3RACHA and a primary rapper. The Ace, known for his fast-spitting bars, as well as his ability to stuff a LOT of food in his face all at once! Hehehehe but he's really an all-rounder and amazing. The entire 3RACHA are my biases but Han is my ult bias. ❤
Thank you for the info! :) I chose this video to react to in all honesty because I genuinely know nothing about this group or song or MV. I also have never watched Wolverine Deadpool haha (not huge into it) so I didn’t know this wasn’t the MV haha!!
They debuted in 2018 They are ages 23 - 27 Fandom name is Stay #2 Best Selling Artist in U.S 2023 #3 Globally Best Selling 2023 They are unique for several reasons... First, the leader Bang Chan was allowed by JYP to hand pick all of the members himself. They were not placed together in a traditional way, by the company. Second all of them are all arounders. They can all sing, rap, dance, produce and write. Third, they have written and produced about 99% of their music. Numbers of songs each member has copyrighted according to Korean Music Association (KOMCA) so far... Bang Chan 193 Changbin 163 Han 161 Hyunjin 27 Felix 23 I.N 21 Seungmin 20 Lee Know 17 While they can all do everything they do have 3 different subunits... 3Racha... Bang Chan, Chang Bin and Han which are the main producers and lyricists. They are always credited as 3Racha. 3Racha Achievements - Producers of Consecutive Five Time Billboard 200 #1 album debuts - only group in history - Hot 100 Hitmakers - 3rd, 11th, 12th Most Credited Idols on KOMCA - Produced Albums Sold Over 20 Million Copies - Japan Hot 100 Hitmakers - 100+ Weeks on Hot 100 Lyricists - 100+ Weeks On Hot 100 Composers - 2023 Asia Artist Awards Best Creator - Makers of Time Magazines 2020 #8 Best Song (their song Backdoor) Danceracha... Lee Know (in charge of leading dance practices), Felix and Hyunjin. They also contribute to the choreography. Vocalracha... Seungmin and I.N While the songs are hype they always have significant meaning to them. Their lyricism is always insane. Since they are so experimental their sound has its own genre and they have a very diverse discography. Example... Gods Menu, Back Door and Case 143 all completely different sounds.
❤❤ Great Reaction. Glad you’re appreciating stray kids. They are a fully self produced, Multi talented, 8 member group. The more you go down the stray, kids rabbit hole, the more you will find to like. By the way. This was the performance video not the actual one. recommend you watch the video for this song. Additional songs are La La LaLa, Mega verse, God’s menu, Backdoor, Domino, Miroh.
Stary kids are my favorite along with Blackpink. Honestly very talented,they produce their music themselves and that's what I love the most about them Also they're close friends with Blackpink especially Lisa
I fell into Blackpink a few years ago and love them. Then discovered Stray Kids about 6 months ago and I fell HARD. They are my favorite group in so many aspects. Not just their sound (they can literally do any genre), style, performance, but they produce nearly everything and from what we see they seem so genuine. Giant just came out which is a Japanese title track for them and it change my brain chemistry. Soooooooo good. My 4 year old asks for me to play it all the time too 😂 I feel you with K-pop, it’s so different from western music. It scratches an itch you didn’t know you had in your brain for me. You will not be disappointed if you deep dive into Stray Kids… they never miss!
🇨🇵 merci pour cette réaction 😊. Ils sont 8 membres. BangChan (le leader, Australien) Lee Know Changbin Hyunjin Han Felix (australien) Seungmin I.N Mon top 5 de StrayKids: Red Lights Backdoor Topline Lonely St Thunderous Ce top évolue selon mon humeur 😅. Leur album Japonais vient de sortir et je vous suggère très fortement à regarder le M/V de "GIANT", il est 🤩
If you want an equally fabulous kpop group (who are also best friends with Straykidz) then you need to check out Ateez. They are my ultimate group. With a style uniquely their own they are also master story tellers. A great first song from them is Halazia which places them deep in the lore of their story. Anyway, other Straykidz masterpieces are Maniac, God’s Menu, Megaverse, S-class, Venom to name just a few.
Fortunately or unfortunately you have managed to check out the 'Performance Video' As you have seen in my previous post, a title track has different version. M/V is the music video. For 'Chk Chk Boom' It is highly recommended, especially since Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds have a cameo in it as Wolverine and Deadpool.... So again the different versions: M/V - Music Video ruclips.net/video/0P0aQreFs8w/видео.html Performance Video (choreography with moving camera, costumes and official audio) - ruclips.net/video/T17AR8cVmto/видео.html (This video) Dance Practice - Fixed camera version (Full choreography from a fixed camera angle, practice room sound, casual fit. ) ruclips.net/video/x_EbW6fpeEs/видео.html OPTIONAL - Dance Practice - Moving camera version (This is optional, setup varies) ruclips.net/video/FGmJ7kjH9JQ/видео.html OPTIONAL - Relay Dance: (Not available for Chk Chk Boom) Most fun dance version, NOT SERIOUS, fixed angle, members form a line, front member dances mostly. Example for 'Scream' ruclips.net/video/iLbZtM2EFf0/видео.html
Stray Kids are a self producing group who are known for their extremely hype beats and M/V transitions but also have a wide variety of genre's within their discography. Stray Kids aren't your traditional K-pop boy group. K-pop groups can range anywhere from 2 - 26 members (NCT). Loved your genuine reaction. Looking forward to more Stray Kids content! Highly recommend God's Menu- Stray Kids.
If you want to check out another kpop boy group, I'd suggest Ateez, their concept is pirates and they're very talented. Additionally, the members of Stray Kids and Ateez are actually friends!

"heyday", "zone", "3racaha", "we go" -all this
is hip hop, they also have in the group the fastest rapper in the k-pop industry is Changbin .You can listen to his solo "doodle" or his feat with Milli and F.Hero (they are Thai rappers) "mirror mirror". well, if something is straight experimental from the guys, it's from the new album "Jjam" (electronics) from older works "Side effects" (this is the first k-pop work combining itself, Hip-hop, Electronics and Psychedelic trance), "The Tortoise and the Hare" (the song was written by one of the participants drunk, this song is underestimated, for me the song is one of the best), "cover me" (lyrics)"Lose My Breat" (the whole song is in English, as a feat with Charlie Puth), they also have a job with Lil Durk remix on "all my life".If something is dancing "Domino", "S class",

LAST COMMENT! (lol not trying to spam!) but if you’re interested in checking out more, they have songs (and m/vs) in basically every genre. some may be hit or miss because they tend to have a very loud signature style, but i think there’s really something for everyone:
s-class is a huge mix of different genres and highlights many of the members
god’s menu put them on the map and honestly changed kpop in a lot of ways. it’s a crazy song and you will probably love felix by the end of it.
la la la la is a bit more edm? VERY catchy
top line is MY favorite stray kids song. a bit more rap-focused, super catchy and amazing from the get-go
others you cannot go wrong with: maniac, thunderous, social path (featuring japanese singer LiSA!)
if you want something CRAZY/out there: cheese, christmas evel, super bowl
they have a hugeeeee discography considering how short they’ve been in the business, so this barely scratches the surface, but i hope you continue reacting to music, even if it’s not stray kids! i really like your vibe :)
This information is what I want to read so it’s def not spam! I will save your comment for future reference!! Thank you 🙏🏻 😊
Definitely check out their actual M/Vs- they are the Kings of Transitions! So glad you enjoyed them. I was lucky enough to see them Live twice last month at their Melbourne and Sydney concerts and OMG they are just as brilliant live!!
They are all the main members. 😊 It depends on perspective 🤔.
FELIX DEEP VOICE KING OF KPOP FOREVER THE BEST♨✴💯💥🙋🐥😍
He’s great!!😊
The god in the button up vest (the button is barely holding on) is the leader, Bang Chan (real name Chris) he's the main guy, the boss, the everything!

New Subscriber for Stray Kids. They are 10 out of 10, you'll see if you watch more. God's menu, Venom, District 9, they have done it all.
Love to hear this, I’m adding these to my recommended list! :) thanks!!
GIANT mv dropped today.
I am still thinking on how to tell you about last seven years with SKZ. We laughed with them, we cried with them, we grown up with them and had come from a very long journey with them and believe me the road was and is still very bumpy.
First thing should be telling you on basics about them: They are a group of eight members. Each of them can sing, rap and dance very well. They produce their own music and this is their main power in the industry.
Names are Bang Chan, Lee Know, Changbin, Hyunjin, Han, Felix, Seungmin and I.N.
Fandom name is STAY.
The group formed in 2017, debuted in 2018.
Bang Chan is the leader and he handpicked each of the members himself and this is a first (and the only) in the industry.
Each member has their unique specialties and all are very talented.
For example the guy you thought as the main guy is Felix and he has the deepest voice in K-pop, but he can go high as well.
Hyunjin is a genius dancer as well as a talented artist, his paintings are beautiful.
Everyone accepted Han as the ACE of K-pop he can do everything flawlessly.
Bang Chan is a genius producer and leader. He has all Stays' hearts.
Changbin is one of the fastest rappers but you should listen him sing, its paradise, also he is a really good lyricist.
Lee Know is a flawless dancer and a very good choreographer, he also has a giant heart but doesn't accept that fact.
Seungmin has the voice of an angel and a very hardworking person.
When you listen I.N. you cannot figure out if its live or playback he is perfect, also he was just 16 years old when we knew him so we see him as our baby.
I won't suggest any tracks, just pick one and enjoy. Their discography is very rich.
I would like to write more but am too old and a bit lazy. So younger Stays please take the flag and continue from where I left off.
Hi, new here, found your channel today. I’ve gone back to follow your whole K-pop journey, but so glad you found Stray Kids. They are my ults, just so talented and creative, and they’re self produced, which is not often the case in the industry. But I like that because it means they tell their own story. Looking forward to following your journey. Subscribed for more Stray Kids and K-pop in general.
Hi!! Thanks so much for your support and the sub! :) I’m so happy to share this journey for Stays like yourself and kpop fans in general!! You joined in on the journey at a great time! I just released my stray kids guide reaction video (a bit lengthy) but I’m going down the rabbit hole! Cheers! 🙌🏻 😊
@ Oh I stayed and watched all the K-pop before watching the guide, which is how I found your channel! RUclips knows I watch it every other day on a new channel so I get fed reactions to the guide regularly and that’s how I found you. But I like to see a reactors journey from the start, so I went back to your very first K-pop video, APT!
Stray Kids is one of the few boy groups I follow. I think they were the first group i found after Blackpink when I stumbled onto their song God's Menu (you should definitely check it out) which is still my favorite song of theirs.
They're around the same age as the younger Dreamcatcher members, 23 - 27-ish.
They’re fantastic! :) I’ll be doing more in the near future from stray kids
@vhsVin just wanted to mention they debuted 6.5 years ago. Pre-debut was when they were 16 to 20 they have over 200 songs released and not a single miss.
10:19 also my favorite part, I knew it was gonna be this part. I'd give it 5.5/8 (I like the song, and listen to it, but I like other songs more)
One of the few male groups I follow, I would like to recommend the song that got me into Stray Kids "God's Menu"
Love how you shared your rating and explanation! Thank you for sharing :)
I will come out with more stray kids very soon! Perhaps even that song 😜
Thank you so much for checking out stray kids. Stay is the fandom name. Its a great motto and a play on words. Stray kids represent anyone who feels like they dont fit any anywhere. Like a family of misfits. The motto is calling all stray kids everywhere around the world, for we (the fans) are what keeps them going. They are a self producing group, meaning the write, and compose 99% of their own music. They lovto experiment with their music. 2 members are from Australia, (Felix, and Bang chan, the leader). The leader trained for 7 years, starting at the age 15 years old. He has a lot of friends in K-pop, including Lisa from Black Pink. I hope you watch the official mv for chk chk boom. Not only do they have amazing music, but their music videos are some of the best ever in K-pop. If you think they look young now, what till you see them from 2018 when they debuted. Lol hope to see more stray kids reactions. Welcome to Stayville.❤❤
Thanks, I loved it!! You shall see more very soon :)
More!!!
Thank you 🙏🏻 🤭
Great reaction! All eight members of SKZ sing, rap, dance, write and produce with 3Racha doing most of the writing and producing. They are almost completely self produced and write their own songs and raps. While there are no set positions there are subgroups. 3Racha is Bang Chan, Changbin and Han. Danceracha is Lee Know, Hyunjin and Felix. Vocalracha is Seungman and I.N. In addition there is a rap line of Changbin, Hyunjin, Han and Felix and a vocal line of Bang Chan, Lee Know, Seungmin and I.N. Currently aged 23 to 27, they debuted in 2018. Felix and Bang Chan are Korean Australian so their first language is English but all members have some fluency in English and English will be mixed into a lot of their songs. They also have all English songs and Japanese songs and have thrown in some Spanish and the ocasional French. Their title tracks tend to be aggressive and high energy (Lalalala, Maniac, God's Menu are just a few) but their other songs can be most any genre. All their title tracks have impressive mvs but a lot of their b sides will too with some being almost a mini movie (Megaverse, Freeze, Venom to name a few). There are also dance practice videos and they sound amazing live. They recently headlined Lolla Chicago, IDays and BST Hyde Park and are currently on their world tour and just dropped a new Japanese album. They have songs for the Deadpool Wolverine, Revenge, Arcane and Tower of God soundtracks this year. Since you mentioned fashion a few fun fashion facts. SKZ are ambassadors for Tommy Hillfiger and attended the MetGala this year as the first kpop group to do so. W Korea May 2024 cover collab with eight different designers. Bang Chan/Fendi, Lee Know/Gucci, Changbin/Dolce & Gabbana, Hyunjin/Versace, Han/Balmain, Felix/LV, Seungmin/Loewe, I.N./Alexander McQueen. Lee Know, Hyunjin, Felix, Seungmin and I.N. have also attended fashion weeks.
Felix @ 2:26 is the member you mentioned. Often recognized for his "cave bass" voice but has a wide vocal range all the way to a beautiful falsetto. 24 KOMCA writing credits. Global Ambassador for Louis Vuitton and walked the runway this year. Also Goodwill Ambassador for Unicef.
Han @ 2:36 main rapper with crazy flow also provides a lot of the vocals.163 KOMCA writing credits.
Changbin @ 2:45 main rapper with crazy flow and among the fastest rappers worldwide. 168 KOMCA writing credits.
I.N. @ 2:56 beautiful vocals often in a higher range and the youngest member of the group, referred to as a maknae. 22 KOMCA. Attended fashion shows for Alexander McQueen and Bottega Venetta but no official announcement.
Seungmin @ 2:59 beautiful vocals and solo OSTs along with the group OSTs. 22 KOMCA. Attended fashion show for Loewe but no official announcement.
Bang Chan @ 3:05 oldest in the group and the leader. He selected each member of the group in the survival show of the same name. He has the most writing credits of the group with 200 writing credits.
Hyunjin @ 3:12 versatile rapper and singer, always dancing, a talented artist and a Versace and Cartier global ambassador. 28 KOMCA.
Lee Know @ 4:03 beautiful singer including great falsettos, was a backup dancer for BTS, leads a lot of the dance practices and helps with choreography. 18 KOMCA. Attended fashion show for Gucci but no official announcement.
You should watch a guide for Straykids
They're 8 members
Currently the biggest kpop male group along with Bts
Thanks for the reaction! I hope you go down the SKZ rabbit hole. Be forewarned, however, Stray Kids are *anything but* “typical”. Also, watching an MV of the same song counts as a new reaction because their MVs are an entirely different experience.
great positive energy keep it up i subscribed
Thank you!! Always stay ⬆️ my friend! 😎 I appreciate the sub!
I keep seeing new Stray Kids reactors choosing the dance performance video first, which I find really interesting considering the cameos in the MV! But I love all of their performances and it's fun to see the whole choreo. Definitely dive deeper, these guys are incredible and not just in terms of their talent. I would venture to say that it would be difficult to find other MVs that rival theirs in terms of production skill and value, and their songs are so incredibly fun, unique, and thought-provoking.
In terms of members, if you freeze the video at the first zoom out where you can see all of the members, starting from the right:
-BANGCHAN (aka Chan, Christopher): As has already been stated, he is the leader and a member of 3RACHA, the production/rap aspect of the group.
-SEUNGMIN (aka Puppy): VocalRACHA, known for his stable vocals and frequently requested on K-Drama soundtracks.
-CHANGBIN (aka Binnie): A member of the 3RACHA and a main rapper. Frequently opens their songs with his hard-hitting bars.
-FELIX (center, front)(aka Yongbok): The guy you keep calling "the main member" (there isn't a main member in Stray Kids, they are all 'all-rounders' with their own colors). Part of the visual line and the DanceRACHA. Known for his insanely low vocals that do not match his face and one of the two Aussies. Believe it or not, he almost didn't debut with them!
-I.N (center, back)(aka Fox/Baby Bread): The Maknae of the group, member of the VocalRACHA.
-(I know, you know, we know) LEE KNOW: Part of the DanceRACHA and primary choreographer. Also almost did not debut with them.
-HYUNJIN (aka The Prince): Visual line, DanceRACHA. Famous for his dramatic dance and facial expressions.
-HAN (aka Quokka): Member of the 3RACHA and a primary rapper. The Ace, known for his fast-spitting bars, as well as his ability to stuff a LOT of food in his face all at once! Hehehehe but he's really an all-rounder and amazing.
The entire 3RACHA are my biases but Han is my ult bias. ❤
Thank you for the info! :) I chose this video to react to in all honesty because I genuinely know nothing about this group or song or MV. I also have never watched Wolverine Deadpool haha (not huge into it) so I didn’t know this wasn’t the MV haha!!
@vhsVin totally get it, and their dance videos are also fantastic. I can't wait to see them in person! ❤️❤️❤️
They debuted in 2018
They are ages 23 - 27
Fandom name is Stay
#2 Best Selling Artist in U.S 2023
#3 Globally Best Selling 2023
They are unique for several reasons...
First, the leader Bang Chan was allowed by JYP to hand pick all of the members himself. They were not placed together in a traditional way, by the company.
Second all of them are all arounders. They can all sing, rap, dance, produce and write.
Third, they have written and produced about 99% of their music.
Numbers of songs each member has copyrighted according to Korean Music Association (KOMCA) so far...
Bang Chan 193
Changbin 163
Han 161
Hyunjin 27
Felix 23
I.N 21
Seungmin 20
Lee Know 17
While they can all do everything they do have 3 different subunits...
3Racha... Bang Chan, Chang Bin and Han which are the main producers and lyricists. They are always credited as 3Racha.
3Racha Achievements
- Producers of Consecutive Five Time Billboard 200 #1 album debuts - only group in history

Danceracha... Lee Know (in charge of leading dance practices), Felix and Hyunjin. They also contribute to the choreography.

While the songs are hype they always have significant meaning to them. Their lyricism is always insane.
Since they are so experimental their sound has its own genre and they have a very diverse discography.
Example... Gods Menu, Back Door and Case 143 all completely different sounds.
This is amazing, I’m so glad i was recommended this group!! :)
Love this song, thank you for great reaction Vin 😊😊
The Silver haired guy - Felix belive it or not is not the main guy, he is the Face of The Group, but the leader is the guy after him at the chorus.
This group is absolutely fantastic!! Each member is so unique :). Def will be more reactions for stray kids.
4:45 There’s 8 members. There is no ”main” guy. There’s a leader, that’s not him.
if you want to know them more i recommend you to watch the 2hour complete guide 2024 of stray kids
Ateez. Songs Pirate King, Hala Hala, Bouncy and Work.
I really hope y react to actually MV😅😊 thx for reactins😊
Also _ 8 members=all are main memebers
❤❤ Great Reaction. Glad you’re appreciating stray kids. They are a fully self produced, Multi talented, 8 member group. The more you go down the stray, kids rabbit hole, the more you will find to like. By the way. This was the performance video not the actual one. recommend you watch the video for this song. Additional songs are La La LaLa, Mega verse, God’s menu, Backdoor, Domino, Miroh.
Stary kids are my favorite along with Blackpink.
Honestly very talented,they produce their music themselves and that's what I love the most about them
Also they're close friends with Blackpink especially Lisa
I fell into Blackpink a few years ago and love them. Then discovered Stray Kids about 6 months ago and I fell HARD. They are my favorite group in so many aspects. Not just their sound (they can literally do any genre), style, performance, but they produce nearly everything and from what we see they seem so genuine. Giant just came out which is a Japanese title track for them and it change my brain chemistry. Soooooooo good. My 4 year old asks for me to play it all the time too 😂
I feel you with K-pop, it’s so different from western music. It scratches an itch you didn’t know you had in your brain for me. You will not be disappointed if you deep dive into Stray Kids… they never miss!
STAYS is their Fandom name.
Thank you!
Need to see God's Menu, Maniac, Lalalala, and Topline
Check out the channel! I’ve got a reaction to God’s menu as well!:)

Leur album Japonais vient de sortir et je vous suggère très fortement à regarder le M/V de "GIANT", il est 🤩
Thank you for the pleasant words! :) I have already reacted to Giant! Check out my channel!:)
@vhsVin oh d'accord 😁 je vais regarder ça alors 🧐 merci
If you want an equally fabulous kpop group (who are also best friends with Straykidz) then you need to check out Ateez. They are my ultimate group. With a style uniquely their own they are also master story tellers. A great first song from them is Halazia which places them deep in the lore of their story.
Anyway, other Straykidz masterpieces are Maniac, God’s Menu, Megaverse, S-class, Venom to name just a few.
Fortunately or unfortunately you have managed to check out the 'Performance Video' As you have seen in my previous post, a title track has different version. M/V is the music video. For 'Chk Chk Boom' It is highly recommended, especially since Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds have a cameo in it as Wolverine and Deadpool....
So again the different versions:
M/V - Music Video ruclips.net/video/0P0aQreFs8w/видео.html
Performance Video (choreography with moving camera, costumes and official audio) - ruclips.net/video/T17AR8cVmto/видео.html (This video)
Dance Practice - Fixed camera version (Full choreography from a fixed camera angle, practice room sound, casual fit. ) ruclips.net/video/x_EbW6fpeEs/видео.html
OPTIONAL - Dance Practice - Moving camera version (This is optional, setup varies) ruclips.net/video/FGmJ7kjH9JQ/видео.html
OPTIONAL - Relay Dance: (Not available for Chk Chk Boom) Most fun dance version, NOT SERIOUS, fixed angle, members form a line, front member dances mostly. Example for 'Scream' ruclips.net/video/iLbZtM2EFf0/видео.html
Stray Kids are a self producing group who are known for their extremely hype beats and M/V transitions but also have a wide variety of genre's within their discography. Stray Kids aren't your traditional K-pop boy group. K-pop groups can range anywhere from 2 - 26 members (NCT). Loved your genuine reaction. Looking forward to more Stray Kids content! Highly recommend God's Menu- Stray Kids.
Thank you 🙏🏻. I thoroughly enjoyed this group beyond words, so you’ll definitely see more of them on the channel very soon! :)
Watch the real music video! It’s great!
Why did you not check out the MV. The MV is amazing.
I pinned my comment with further explanation but basically clicked the wrong video 😐, woops!
Listen to Work by Ateez. They are another really good male Kpop group. The vocals are insane.
They are next on my list!:)
Chece
This isn't the MV, that has Hugh Jackman in the thumbnail. There are 8 of them
If you want to check out another kpop boy group, I'd suggest Ateez, their concept is pirates and they're very talented. Additionally, the members of Stray Kids and Ateez are actually friends!
I’ve been hearing of them from others as well! Sooo many groups to explore, it’s so great! 😀
