More reactions and analysis are here on my Patreon, including this one from ZB1's Zhanghao on Lee Mujin "So Bad" : www.patreon.com/posts/93525145 Also, let me know your fave mama 2023 moment!
I don't know if you'll read this or comment, but: For a while now, I've been thinking TXT are moving into a direction they could very well do a cover and even work with the guys from Linkin Park. I could see this work. The Hybrid Theory/Meteora sound/vibe would make so much sense IMHO.
Finally Kai got praised that he deserves, he is so underrated,he is not my bias but I always think that he ve the most beautiful voices of txt group n one of the best of 4th gen.🎤🎶🎶💫✨
A baby MOA here! (2weeks in the fandom so far) and without his voice, I won’t be here I swear. I can’t believe that his voice, literally the one who lured me to love this group is discredited 😢 all of them are wonderful singers but I found his style as something unique when it comes to Kpop. Discovered TXT through the song “Everlasting Shine” which is a Japanese song for the opening of Black Clover, it’s like love at first hear, lol but it was not until I was bored one day that I decided to explore TXT. I watched my first actual TXT content when I watched their live performance here in yt and I was planning to see who owns the voice that I’m literally obsessed with for a year now (cause there’s specific Kai parts that I like on that song) and god, I can’t believe what I’m even seeing, he is literally ethereal kind of visual! I was like “how can this be possible?!?”… I expected him to be good looking because he is an idol, but I did not expect THAT? (😭) as crazy as it is, I can see the reason why there’s people who discredit him, it’s because of his visuals like the reason why Margo Robbie was not truly being credited for her acting until her Harley Quinn and Barbie roles, apparently there’s still these people who thinks good looking people will solely rely on their looks and discredit their skills that they worked hard to get…it’s sad. But still I don’t care, I think I’ve fallen in love with TXT and will support them equally, tho yes, Kai is obviously my bias (Lil context: I am good with recognizing voices, musical tone and remembering how things sounds like I believe that is called perfect pitch, but I’m not sure since I can’t tell name of keys in piano and notes cause my family doesn’t see any value for me to learn music plus, my left ear isn’t functioning well because of a childhood incident) Hm… that’s long, thank for reading of you got this far… just a lil rant
Kai is the biggest takeaway for me in this Mama 2023..He understands music, instruments and vocal technique very well and serves it with his extraordinary talent 👏👏
@@on-gk I swear, it gotta be because he got that visual in him, as a boy he isn’t even developing that much but I guess Big Hit (at that time) clearly knows what they’re doing
Kai is very talented his her parents are musician allso with his two sister also Kai is song writer composer and producer also Kai thear a lot a big contribution to txt song lest
I've always said it, Taehyun's voice will always be my favorite, I love his high notes, I love how he always conveys the feeling of a song, I like everything about his voice... 😭❤️ So hearing Taehyunie's voice shining here makes me feel like it's a victory since I loveee Kang Taehyun with all my heart. 🥺💖
I’m absolutely loving the praise for Huening Kai. He’s been my favorite vocalist from the start. His voice is so comforting and unlike any other I’ve ever heard. I hate that people, even worse moas, love to downplay his talents and want to shove him in the back. He’s shown countless times how incredible of a performer & vocalist he is. He needs, DESERVES, more opportunities to showcase his beautiful voice. I’d kill for him to be on Lee Mujin’s service or something similar.
Thank you for appreciating Kai’s vocal, i loveeee his voice a lot, and Im so proud of him too, he’s been working hard and he made it. Taehyun was also amazing! TXT has best vocalist that is still underrated, BH needs to show them off more often.❤
Your breakdown of Kai's technique was so thorough and gave me a lot of insight in the micro decisions singers make overall ! Im also really happy he's going with a pop-rock sound for his voice. He loves that genre and so do I!
Your reaction to ZB1's Zhang Hao is so me! It's just insane how impressive he is when you get to know him. ICYDK, he plays piano, violin, viola, cello, flute, and erhu. His life story is also really inspiring. From taking the Gakao (NCEE) test at the age of 16 and getting accepted into the top university for Geosciences in China, to taking Yikao (Art Examination) to pursue music instead and becoming a top scorer in the Fujian province, to busking in the streets and taking up wedding gigs to pay for dance classes and teaching kids music, to flying to Korea and debuting as P01 out of 98 trainees in Boys Planet (thus, becoming the 1st foreign center from an Mnet idol survival show) to breaking several records as part of ZEROBASEONE (ZB1).
I love your reactions to Kai's singing,I love how you are so supportive of him!! I recommend you to also check out Taehyun's vocals too because he's also a priceless gem 💝💝 taehyun and Kai they are both insanely talented in their group
7:42 ZB1 Zhang Hao never stops impressing me as well, multi-talented king 🎻 He can teach, play the violin, the viola, the cello, the piano, sing beautifully and dance
I really think Taehyun and Hueningkai were the best options for singing Endless Rain as the song is originally a rock ballad that X Japan has been performing since a lot ago, they could add this pop rock vibe and their voices are on a similar tone as Toshi's (X Japan's vocalist), just to add as Yoshiki is now a film director beside of musician, composer and producer (and yes, he composed this song more than 30 years ago) I'm completely sure he was sure what to add and what the public would be seeing on stage 😊 As MOA I'm really proud of them and as Yoshiki's fan I can only be more and more happy🎉❤
Oh god, how much I love hearing people praise Huening Kai. It's going to be 5 years since they debuted in such a good company, but he is still so underappreciated. My heart cries. Literally, as you said, this is all I always wanted for him.
Thank you for your reaction! zhang hao is THAT amazing 😭 the fact that he only learned playing violin for his entrance exam to music education for 6 months and also he can play other music instruments like viola, cello and piano, hes so freaking talented
X Japan is always high on drama so I wouldn't be surprised if Yoshiki had a hand on deciding what we saw on screen. I love Endless Rain so watching the "babies" from TXT performing with him on the piano was very moving
Thank you for praising Zhang Hao ❤❤❤ He once performed violin on the street, worked part-time at wedding ceremonies, and used the money he earned to learn kpop dance and perform vocal training. As a fan, I'm really touched that he can perform in front of so many people.
Katriinka you sum up Kai so perfectly. Everything you said about him is what I think too. I desperately, so badly want to hear him cover One Ok Rock. Not everyone can sing like Taka or come close to hm but i want to see Kai's take on a One Ok Rock song.
Thank you very much for the analysis! I completely agree with what was said in the video! I've loved Kai's voice since the debut of TXT. I'm so proud of him now. His vocal abilities have been revealed very well in the last two albums. Indeed, his tone of voice is very suitable for the pop-rock genre! And this can be seen by everyone who has heard TXT's 'Growing Pain'! I believe that he and the whole group have a great future and many victories ahead of them.
Big Hit never lets Kai showcase what he can do and its so frustrating because he can do so much more than what they give him. He's so talented and capable and just needs to be able to show it more because he truly is so amazing. He has the most range and power so i just want to hear him hit everything.
No not really, he was not confident in the past and nowadays he's getting out of his shell and unlike before where he hesitated in front of opportunities, he started taking them on and not being that afraid to showcase himself....bighit actually was giving him a lot of solo acts and centers at yhe start (even their first award shows he was thr one given the solo dance part instead of yeonjun for example), it was so that he becomes more confident qnd get more experience....he's just the type who hides himself if he senses that what he shows might not be perfect (the opposite of Taehyun in this case for example who just faces every opportunity head on even if he might do mistakes or not be perfect, he just gakes it as a learning opportunity)....i'm glad that Kai is getting loose nowadays and not thinking too much about stuff and just displaying his abilities...
Sorry, but in my opinion, an agency giving opportunities for all the members to show off their abilities is a MUST. Who hurts you dear to blame his confidence?? You never know what he's been through
@@borapobangpo acting like you're his best friend lmao just shut up. 'he was the one given the solo dance instead of yj' is really crazy statement by your logic maybe yj wasn't confident at that time too lol. Kai deserved a solo dance at mama that time don't you ever dare to disrespect his hard work!.
Why blame his agency? That's not how it works 😂 he's grown in both ability and confidence, so we get to see more of what he can do now. I swear people like to pretend they have inside information just to spread hate for no reason, and I don't get it. BigHit is not trying to stifle any of their artists, I promise.
Actually, people need to know that Jaehyun is Main Rapper on his group BOYNEXTDOOR and he wrote his own rap on this collab as a present for Woonhak (His Teammates) because Woonhak lost one his family member on his birthday Nov 29, he was on his hardest time because of that, and Jaehyun wrote his own rap verse on endless rain just for Woonhak with hope that he will cheer up again😭💕 Ah, beside that even he is main rapper, at the same time he often to sing a highnote on their song❤
Endless Rain is my favourite piece rendered by my top tier boys. Riize + TVXQ is another segment I love and the Goddesses of Music is out of this world
Thank you for the video!! Loved your reaction to Zhanghao playing Violin, I already knew that he played, but when I saw the stage for the first time, I was still absolutely shocked!! And I remember you looking at ateez at some point but I 100% recommend the other kq artist as well, for one Maddox is an AMAZING vocalist, he's been on immortal song a few times already and has a few original songs out as well, no matter what you decide to watch I just know you're going to love him, if you want any specific recommendations for performances let me know!! And second xikers, they are a rookie boy group, they had their debut this year and you 100% would not realise they are rookies if you just listen to them and watch them perform, really, their mama stage was immaculate but if you're looking for something a little bit more vocal based I really recommend their rockstar and homeboy stages, but really both the vocalist and rappers shine in all their songs!!! I really hope you give them both a chance because they WILL blow you away, 100%!! Once again, I loved your video! 😊
YES! YES! and YES! I'm so absolutely floored at Kai's performance in this. He sounded so relaxed and powerful. As a listener, I am extremely satisfied hearing it.
wow i'm suprised that you've never listened to TREASURE's vocal line... they have one of if not the best vocal line amongst 4th gen kpop boy groups based on their completely LIVE solo and group performances...
so happy to see your reaction to zhang hao!! i only recently discovered him and zb1 and he a gift on this earth! if you haven’t watched the whole lee mujin service with him, i recommend watching the whole thing i’ve never seen someone make mujin laugh so much 😭
Endless Rain came out in 1989 and a classic jpop song. 1997 when X Japan disbanded and had the last concert (only 1) at Tokyo Dome the audience repeated the two lines for a full 10 minutes hoping they didn't have to disband. After getting the award, Yoshiki had to rush off for bandmates farewell ceremony (funeral service). So far X Japan has 3 members passed away, only 3 still living. Yoshiki is the leader, drummer, pianist, composer of X Japan. He did a classical tour in October and his new rock band The Last Rock Stars had a tour in November. Not bad for 58yrs. You can check out the original singer Toshl of X Japan sing this song as a comparison.
Thank youuu so much for this reaction and for appreciating Kai’s vocal so much I wish you could react to their latest album “the name chapter freefall” Kai really shines in the whole album ❤❤❤
kai is SO SO underappreciated for his vocals... he was not confident with his voice back then. this cb has shown kai's improvement... hes popping out of his shell and confident with it. many people let down kai for his vocals before but he showed us that my man is a MAIN VOCAL TOO...
This is why I never take it seriously if someone says Kai's vocals are below average, like you're not a vocal expert, how can you be so confident saying that nonsense? Lmao. Hueningkai is main vocal fr and your nonsense bout him can't take away from the fact that he is really that talented, so keep barking antis.
22:56 "Second singer"-he is literally the best vocalist of the 4th generation. His name is Kang Taehyun, and he is a member of TXT, just like Huening Kai.
@@goguma814 Oh yes, you can leave. Hyuka is my bias; I didn't put any shade on anyone. I mentioned him because I thought the creator didn't know that they were both from the same group.
Thank you for your explanation on Kai’s singing. I know nothing about singing but his voice has always connected with my heart. Just as you said, he’s a very comfortable singer. I find his voice very comfortable to listen to!
Only I and my neighbors know how hard I cried at Endless Rain. Before I knew "kpop" (rock actually), I knew jpop and rock. X Japan was my band. That last live at the Tokyo Dome. The audience chanting Endless Rain a capella is engraved in my heart. I was watching MAMA on and off, I saw Yoshiki take the stage and I realized it was the Tokyo Dome... Then he started playing and I lost it, then Taehyun and Hueningkai started singing and they did honor the song so beautifully. Toshi will be proud. I remember KR idols didn't show much, but JP ones know and they were equally emotional. It was a wonderful moment that night. If not THE moment to be honest.
Yoshiki is the leader and drummer of X Japan. Iconic and the standard of drumming. Endless Rain is X Japan song. I suggest a look into their discography. :)
TXT has one of the best vocalists in kpop. Not many praised their vocals just because they hardly do such high notes every damn time. N that they r were even regarded as some of the worse vocalists some months back.🙄
Jaehyun's rap verse in Endless Rain is self-written. Translation of his rap: "Wake up from dream now Sometimes you smile when you don't want to even though you're sad/painful You don't have to that It's like losing the last rose that bloomed in the desert A name that can never bloom even if it's watered belatedly I stand at the extreme point Spring will come soon Is it the winter that will never pass We/I have been waiting for You who have to grow up to be a child Let’s stay together until the rain stops. It’s okay" He revealed that these lyrics were written for Woonhak (maknae of BOYNEXTDOOR), as a birthday gift for him as a cheer up verse, since he lost his grandfather recently.
19:40 fact: this rap was written by Jaehyun himself (he's the leader of Boynextdoor) and he wrote it for the youngest one of his members, Woonhak, who recently lost his grandpa. The lyrics are very beautiful, you guys should check them out (just felt like leaving this comment because his participation in this collab has been criminally overlooked ever since the Mamas aired and he definitely deserves more recognition for it)
Do check out Riize(pronounced as Rise), they’re the first new boy group under SM entertainment after 7 years or so. Some of their members were active in NCT for a while but then redebuted under Riize. They’re a very solid group especially for rookies.
I mean this with kindness. The person singing with Kai is Taehyun, also from Tomorrow X Together. I could or sworn you called him a different name. I do love all of the Kai praise. And I'm not trying to be rude at all! ❤
Are you aware of the Tiny Desk Korea that TxT did? Also, V performed on Tiny Desk Korea as well. They were also posted on the NPR channel, but the captions for TxT were not available on that channel. I hope you’re able to check them out. Thank you as always.
Hi, Kat! Zhang Hao will have his 1st OST called I WANNA KNOW from Love Transit 3 on 19th January 2024. I hope you're going to react to his vocal completely on his own song. Looking forward to your reaction and thank you for considering! ❤
just quickly on zb1 I’m excited for you to watch their MMA show (it was so much more entertaining performance wise) but the way they are showing how talented singers they are live is insane to me.
Zhang hao is a music teacher btw he teaches violin 😭 (he has an official certificate to teach high school students). He's the center, main vocal, and one of the best dancers in zb1 too 🥺 one more: he's crazy smart, he ranked 1 in his province's college entrance exam. What can he not do 😭
I came here to watch your reaction to TXT and I'm so happy that a professional recognize their talent and celebrate their hard work :') I'm so proud of my tubatus 💖
I really need more people appreciating my boys from RIIZE. Anton performed so well and as well Wonbin in another performance. I hope you check their performance from MMA and MAMA out. I personally liked TVXQ alot. They are 2nd gen. They were a 5 member group and now a duo for already some time. Changmin is a legend for his vocals and Yunho is such a nice match to his voice. Yes I am a SM girlie. As well NCT DREAM they did SO WELL. But I understand if you can't react to all of these just watch it in your free time and have fun with it. I don't want to be too demanding T-T
I’m crying😭 Violinist Prince Zhang Hao 🎻🤴🏻🤍 A Chinese university student Zhang Hao who dreamed of becoming a KPOP idol and worked part-time as a violin player at wedding halls to earn money to attend a dance school and vocal classes to become an idol. He play the violin in front of more than 50,000 people at Tokyo Dome as a “KPOP idol.”🥺💗有梦想的人就是了不起啊！为你感到骄傲！！ Our ALL ROUNDER CENTER, Our MAIN VOCAL, Our ACE, Our MUSIC GENIUS Zhang Hao so adorable😍🎻❤Everything so perfect so talented literally shining so brightly ✨🔥We’re proud of you ,will always cheer up for you❤🌹Zhang Hao fighting！！Always with Zhang Hao❤ Always Love Zhang Hao
pls do check out riize !! (pronounced rise) they are soooo talented and have incredible vocalists ( i think you’ll love sohee’s voice) and insanely good dancers. they have three songs rn: memories (predebut), get a guitar (debut), talk saxy (first cb)
I posted this comment on the original video of Endless Rain and is similar to your appeal to support all these artists: *REMEMBER* The Kpop artists featured on this special stage are *YOUNG* and appear in age order (oldest to youngest): TXT Taehyun 21, TXT HueningKai 21, BND Jaehyun 19, RIIZE Anton, 18 and ZB1 Hanyujin 16 [International Age]. Their talent and performance skills defy their young ages. No matter which group(s) you may stan, please show them all some love for this brilliant performance. 💙 And love too to our not-quite-as-young leader Yoshiki !!!🎹

Also, let me know your fave mama 2023 moment!
I don't know if you'll read this or comment, but: For a while now, I've been thinking TXT are moving into a direction they could very well do a cover and even work with the guys from Linkin Park. I could see this work. The Hybrid Theory/Meteora sound/vibe would make so much sense IMHO.
You should react to treasure they are from yg and a group full of talented and their live stages are alway best
Please react to nct 127 recording fastcheck
Hi Katriinka, can you please react to last resort reimagined by falling in reverse? Thank you.
You should listen tvxq killing voice and 2a.m. killing voice. Their vocals and harmony are amazing!
kai is a rather underrated vocalist in my opinion ! his tone is my absolute favorite in txt :D
Same! I also feel like Kai and Taehyun sound similar yet different and compliment each others voices greatly. Not sure if that made sense 😅
He is always that great vocalist but fans don't want to accept that facts.
Same. I love Kai’s voice. It’s so comfortable to listen to
I was thinking you meant Exo Kai and got confused cause he is in the military and even Exo did not attend Mama.
@@vixxexo6855 oh whoops haha
KAI AND TAEHYUNS VOCALS WERE INSANE🔥🔥🔥🔥
TXTs vocals are no joke all the 5 members are excellent vocalists they're basically all rounders
Bruh
Fr😭
Frrr
is this a joke?
@@leamakhournope its true
Kai and taehyun killed it
Finally Kai got praised that he deserves, he is so underrated,he is not my bias but I always think that he ve the most beautiful voices of txt group n one of the best of 4th gen.🎤🎶🎶💫✨
Kai always gets praise from the experts themselves, cause they know which one is great or not.
@@Kibkamalit always gets me when kpop stans and moas try to discredit kai meanwhile the trained vocal coaches always praise his vocals 😭
@@solarplaysmc2365 ikr like they want him to be a dozen so bad but nah kai's talent said otherwise, this is why arguing with them is a waste of time.

Actually, people need to know that Jaehyun is Main Rapper on his group BOYNEXTDOOR and he wrote his own rap on this collab as a present for Woonhak (His Teammates) because Woonhak lost one his family member on his birthday Nov 29, he was on his hardest time because of that, and Jaehyun wrote his own rap verse on endless rain just for Woonhak with hope that he will cheer up again😭💕
Ah, beside that even he is main rapper, at the same time he often to sing a highnote on their song❤
I understand the feeling of losing family members on their birthday. It took some time or maybe a long time to recover the loss
Taehyun and kai vocals are insane!!
Endless Rain is my favourite piece rendered by my top tier boys.
Riize + TVXQ is another segment I love and the Goddesses of Music is out of this world
Thank you for the video!! Loved your reaction to Zhanghao playing Violin, I already knew that he played, but when I saw the stage for the first time, I was still absolutely shocked!!
And I remember you looking at ateez at some point but I 100% recommend the other kq artist as well, for one Maddox is an AMAZING vocalist, he's been on immortal song a few times already and has a few original songs out as well, no matter what you decide to watch I just know you're going to love him, if you want any specific recommendations for performances let me know!! And second xikers, they are a rookie boy group, they had their debut this year and you 100% would not realise they are rookies if you just listen to them and watch them perform, really, their mama stage was immaculate but if you're looking for something a little bit more vocal based I really recommend their rockstar and homeboy stages, but really both the vocalist and rappers shine in all their songs!!!
I really hope you give them both a chance because they WILL blow you away, 100%!! Once again, I loved your video! 😊
The "is it kai?, i love kai?!" Was so real
YES! YES! and YES! I'm so absolutely floored at Kai's performance in this. He sounded so relaxed and powerful. As a listener, I am extremely satisfied hearing it.
Kai and Taehyun have been exploring lots of different music genres and techniques, their vocals and abilities are absolutely beautiful
I'm so impressed by hueningkai's vocals . Like i would lovee a rock song by him. Taehyun 's high note is also incredible
wow i'm suprised that you've never listened to TREASURE's vocal line... they have one of if not the best vocal line amongst 4th gen kpop boy groups based on their completely LIVE solo and group performances...
Zhang hao performance was truly magical 💕
Huening Kai is perfection
I love Huening Kai’s vocals🔥❤️❤️❤️
so happy to see your reaction to zhang hao!! i only recently discovered him and zb1 and he a gift on this earth! if you haven’t watched the whole lee mujin service with him, i recommend watching the whole thing i’ve never seen someone make mujin laugh so much 😭
18:57 I super agree Kai sooooo fits pop rock!!!! same same I can't wait for him to explore more what he can do with that genre!
Treasure are known to be monsters when it comes to performing and hyping the stage!! turning an award show into their own concert I love it
Endless Rain came out in 1989 and a classic jpop song. 1997 when X Japan disbanded and had the last concert (only 1) at Tokyo Dome the audience repeated the two lines for a full 10 minutes hoping they didn't have to disband. After getting the award, Yoshiki had to rush off for bandmates farewell ceremony (funeral service). So far X Japan has 3 members passed away, only 3 still living. Yoshiki is the leader, drummer, pianist, composer of X Japan. He did a classical tour in October and his new rock band The Last Rock Stars had a tour in November. Not bad for 58yrs. You can check out the original singer Toshl of X Japan sing this song as a comparison.
Thank youuu so much for this reaction and for appreciating Kai’s vocal so much I wish you could react to their latest album “the name chapter freefall” Kai really shines in the whole album ❤❤❤
kai is SO SO underappreciated for his vocals... he was not confident with his voice back then. this cb has shown kai's improvement... hes popping out of his shell and confident with it. many people let down kai for his vocals before but he showed us that my man is a MAIN VOCAL TOO...
Man txt’s vocals are just so good!
btw the guy in the black pants and white flowy shirt who did the solo dance is yujin from zb1 and he's only 16!! insanely talented kid fr
This is why I never take it seriously if someone says Kai's vocals are below average, like you're not a vocal expert, how can you be so confident saying that nonsense? Lmao. Hueningkai is main vocal fr and your nonsense bout him can't take away from the fact that he is really that talented, so keep barking antis.
My fav moment from the MAMA was actually this Yoshiki collab performance.
I also loved the moment where Sooyung teared up after seeing the pink ocean.
22:56 "Second singer"-he is literally the best vocalist of the 4th generation. His name is Kang Taehyun, and he is a member of TXT, just like Huening Kai.
xD
the best??
I’m not here for that shitty little subtle shade you threw towards Kai in your comment.
@@goguma814 Oh yes, you can leave. Hyuka is my bias; I didn't put any shade on anyone. I mentioned him because I thought the creator didn't know that they were both from the same group.
@@emmyliaa literal joke lol, he COULD be ONE of the best but NOT the overall best vocalist of an entire generation of singers like pls be fr...
Thank you for your explanation on Kai’s singing. I know nothing about singing but his voice has always connected with my heart. Just as you said, he’s a very comfortable singer. I find his voice very comfortable to listen to!
Kai just pour out emotions!!! 😍
TYUNNING VOCALS!!!!!!!
23:25 a 16yrs old highschool student HAN YUJIN just made a history. He KILLED ittt
he was center at MMA dance break too, and today he is Inkigayo special MC. He is hard-working little genius
TXT members are honoring/imitating in a way Toshi's style and OG song.
Zang hao really deserves all this praise ❤...thanks for knowing him better❤
I highly recommend TXT's tiny desk korea performance, they have beautiful live vocals
The Giants of K-Pop. TXT are literally an “all tall” members idol group it’s great they got the pipes too.
Zhang Hao also knows how to play the cello, piano, viola, erhu and flute.
I hope you react to Treasure. They were actually one of the few groups who sang LIVE during MAMA 2023. Thank you.
Best vocal duo of 4th gen. Taehyun and Kai did it again❤
Huebingkai might be my favorite singer among kpop artists… he almost hits the right amount, he FEELS the music under his skin
Only I and my neighbors know how hard I cried at Endless Rain.
Before I knew "kpop" (rock actually), I knew jpop and rock. X Japan was my band. That last live at the Tokyo Dome. The audience chanting Endless Rain a capella is engraved in my heart.
I was watching MAMA on and off, I saw Yoshiki take the stage and I realized it was the Tokyo Dome... Then he started playing and I lost it, then Taehyun and Hueningkai started singing and they did honor the song so beautifully. Toshi will be proud. I remember KR idols didn't show much, but JP ones know and they were equally emotional. It was a wonderful moment that night. If not THE moment to be honest.
Yoshiki is the leader and drummer of X Japan. Iconic and the standard of drumming.
Endless Rain is X Japan song. I suggest a look into their discography. :)
TXT has one of the best vocalists in kpop.
Not many praised their vocals just because they hardly do such high notes every damn time. N that they r were even regarded as some of the worse vocalists some months back.🙄
Zhang hao's violin performance was truly epic ❤
Txt is the best and deserve the best 💜👑🔥
i would reccomend watching RIIZE recording their songs! They have some good vocals.
Great video as always ❤
Jaehyun's rap verse in Endless Rain is self-written. Translation of his rap:
"Wake up from dream now
Sometimes you smile when you don't want to even though you're sad/painful
You don't have to that
It's like losing the last rose that bloomed in the desert
A name that can never bloom even if it's watered belatedly
I stand at the extreme point
Spring will come soon
Is it the winter that will never pass We/I have been waiting for
You who have to grow up to be a child
Let’s stay together until the rain stops. It’s okay"
He revealed that these lyrics were written for Woonhak (maknae of BOYNEXTDOOR), as a birthday gift for him as a cheer up verse, since he lost his grandfather recently.
TREASURE HAVE STRONG VOCALIST TOO YOU SHOULD CHECK THEM out
Kai praising be making me the happiest istg
i love your reaction videos ! you always remain respectful, kind and informative, thank you ♡
Thanks for the reaction❤ TXT's vocal is another level🥰
19:40 fact: this rap was written by Jaehyun himself (he's the leader of Boynextdoor) and he wrote it for the youngest one of his members, Woonhak, who recently lost his grandpa. The lyrics are very beautiful, you guys should check them out (just felt like leaving this comment because his participation in this collab has been criminally overlooked ever since the Mamas aired and he definitely deserves more recognition for it)
Do check out Riize(pronounced as Rise), they’re the first new boy group under SM entertainment after 7 years or so. Some of their members were active in NCT for a while but then redebuted under Riize. They’re a very solid group especially for rookies.
I really really love your review of Kai and Tyun's stage
Huening kai and taehyun just perfect
I mean this with kindness. The person singing with Kai is Taehyun, also from Tomorrow X Together. I could or sworn you called him a different name. I do love all of the Kai praise. And I'm not trying to be rude at all! ❤
thank you so much! I apologize for the mix up. There are so many names in so many bands and sometimes I mix them up. :( Thank you for being so sweet!
@Katriinka I understand what you mean. I still mix up names. Nicknames are easier for me 😅
taehyun killed it here ❤️🩹😭
Are you aware of the Tiny Desk Korea that TxT did? Also, V performed on Tiny Desk Korea as well. They were also posted on the NPR channel, but the captions for TxT were not available on that channel. I hope you’re able to check them out. Thank you as always.
Taehyun and kai damn they made me cry when i watched it live
taehyun and kai are gems i must say
This is my first time seeing you and the second you said I love Kai I subscribed he is my ult bias and hearing ppl praise him makes me love them 😂😂❤
Im so proud of Anton he looked so cool in stage and did so well ❤
Hi, Kat! Zhang Hao will have his 1st OST called I WANNA KNOW from Love Transit 3 on 19th January 2024. I hope you're going to react to his vocal completely on his own song. Looking forward to your reaction and thank you for considering! ❤
Indeed, we need more Hueningkai praise
just quickly on zb1 I’m excited for you to watch their MMA show (it was so much more entertaining performance wise) but the way they are showing how talented singers they are live is insane to me.
Zhang hao is a music teacher btw he teaches violin 😭 (he has an official certificate to teach high school students). He's the center, main vocal, and one of the best dancers in zb1 too 🥺 one more: he's crazy smart, he ranked 1 in his province's college entrance exam. What can he not do 😭
You should react to todays ZEROBASEONE MMA stage bcs that was wonderful!
I came here to watch your reaction to TXT and I'm so happy that a professional recognize their talent and celebrate their hard work :') I'm so proud of my tubatus 💖
I really need more people appreciating my boys from RIIZE. Anton performed so well and as well Wonbin in another performance. I hope you check their performance from MMA and MAMA out. I personally liked TVXQ alot. They are 2nd gen. They were a 5 member group and now a duo for already some time. Changmin is a legend for his vocals and Yunho is such a nice match to his voice. Yes I am a SM girlie. As well NCT DREAM they did SO WELL. But I understand if you can't react to all of these just watch it in your free time and have fun with it. I don't want to be too demanding T-T
I’m crying😭 Violinist Prince Zhang Hao 🎻🤴🏻🤍 A Chinese university student Zhang Hao who dreamed of becoming a KPOP idol and worked part-time as a violin player at wedding halls to earn money to attend a dance school and vocal classes to become an idol. He play the violin in front of more than 50,000 people at Tokyo Dome as a “KPOP idol.”🥺💗有梦想的人就是了不起啊！为你感到骄傲！！
Our ALL ROUNDER CENTER, Our MAIN VOCAL, Our ACE, Our MUSIC GENIUS Zhang Hao so adorable😍🎻❤Everything so perfect so talented literally shining so brightly ✨🔥We’re proud of you ,will always cheer up for you❤🌹Zhang Hao fighting！！Always with Zhang Hao❤ Always Love Zhang Hao
19:38 well I love this performance stage because of Jaehyun and I love his part and his voice 😊
Thank you for praising our Zhang Hao and Han Yujin!! ZEROBASEONE's stage is also very cool, it would be great if you are willing to see it!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
pls do check out riize !! (pronounced rise)
they are soooo talented and have incredible vocalists ( i think you’ll love sohee’s voice) and insanely good dancers. they have three songs rn: memories (predebut), get a guitar (debut), talk saxy (first cb)
I posted this comment on the original video of Endless Rain and is similar to your appeal to support all these artists:
*REMEMBER* The Kpop artists featured on this special stage are *YOUNG* and appear in age order (oldest to youngest): TXT Taehyun 21, TXT HueningKai 21, BND Jaehyun 19, RIIZE Anton, 18 and ZB1 Hanyujin 16 [International Age]. Their talent and performance skills defy their young ages. No matter which group(s) you may stan, please show them all some love for this brilliant performance. 💙 And love too to our not-quite-as-young leader Yoshiki !!!🎹
im so happy to hear the comments about taehyun and kai
my hao im so proud of him 🥺🤍 thanks for your reaction
