INFINITE was suggested by a ton of you guys so here it is! INFINITE's story was definitely worth telling. Imagine saving not only yourselves but a whole company! Who should I cover in the next video?
Fun facts - sungyeol actually ended up buying back the ceo's house - the ceo did a cameo appearance in one of infinite h's mv as a cleaner - infinite was weekly idol's first guests and continued to return every comeback since as it became tradition - when sunggyu came back from the military, all the tv stations released a commemorative post celebrating his return! Everyone from the audience to station workers loves him both on tv and off ☺
WOW!!!!! This Was Really a FUNNN fact For me!!! I mean the CEO Doing the Cameo!!!😮 The rest R Normal!😅 INSpirits know them!😂 But even after being an INSpirit!💕 I didn't abt the Cameo thing!,😅
You forgot to say that Infinite practicality invented synchronization. They set the bar and raised the standard for perfect dance synchronization in kpop.
I remember before I got into them I knew that was their Thing And I didnt get it a ton because by that time other groups were catching on But when looking back at stuff for that time.. they were way ahead and definitely deserved that title
i used to be an inspirit and this is what ive heard about the group that time and one of the things they are being praised for what a bummer though theyre being left out when talking about ‘synchronization’
I am actually glad that shinee is back, that somehow gives me hope that Infinite will be back too! maybe we all could unite for a massive comebackk! that would be epic
I became a kpop fan in 2017 and find out about Infinite in 2019. They became together with exo my favorite groups ever. I'm only sad that I couldn't know them earlier, but I love listening to their albums and seeing their programs. Honestly, after I met them, the other groups kinda looked less interesting for me. They raised the bars
@@helo9885 I became kpops fan in 2015 .. I was only in grade 2 Infinite was my second group that i stained Love you infinite We miss you... ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
They’re obviously the OGs of kpop, its sad how alot of kpop fans don’t acknowledge them as king of synchronization. They’re even the first kpop group to perform in BILLBOARD. They succesfully dominated the whole world! They’re also the main creators of the finger heart and synchronised dances and Scorpion dance. Woollim does everything for their groups, they pay them well.
I feel that they watched and were a big fan of Quest Crew in ABDC. I bet that "scorpion dance" was heavily inspired from Quest's decathlon challenge back in '09. That's what I think and if it's true I like them even more.
actually, woohyun spiked the trend for the finger heart, the actual originator for the finger heart was jang suwon from sechskies during a couple live stage back in 1998,,, it took two legends to imprint the finger heart as kpop's most iconic trademark
Fun fact, Infinite's The Chaser was #3 on Billboard's top 100 of the 2010's, beating iconic songs like "I am the best" by 2ne1, "I got a boy" by SNSD, "Sherlock" by Shinee and "Blood, Sweat and tears" by BTS.
@@jhazminjoyguerrero4537 there is check Google billboard top 100 kpop songs of the decade.. iu's good day is 1, red velvet's red flavour is 2, INFINITE's chaser is 3, 2ne1's I'm the best is 4, girl's generation's I got a boy is 5..
@@shinyeee1709 yes, but on the other hand Woollim had 2 established bands while TOP Media had none. So neither of them really had the edge over the other
Infinite is everyone's first love and the key to their kpop hearts. The boys are so innocent and the only guys who probably loved their fans with those heart throws. Ooh nostalgia. I hope they have a comeback with L and Hoya
Beyoncé also does this, it’s a very beneficial practicing technique to build singing stamina and strength. So many singers may also use this technique.
essennagerry Uhm not so sure but since infinite had to do that and epic high helped them out a lot, they probably did. Maybe not at the beginning but it had become a thing for Woollim artists to be expected to do before golcha debuted
They were called kings of synchronization back in the day. Now most group have perfect sync and hord choreographies, back then INFINITE was on the throne for this category!
"Well, when it comes to this group the odds are infinite." I am ugly crying right now. Infinite was the group that got me into kpop. I remember watching like 140p bad reuploads of sesame player and weekly idol and it just brought me so much joy to see these boys work hard and achieve their dreams over the years. In 2016 I saw them live on their second world tour and it was a magical moment. Sadly, the translator was really bad (it was the concert in Berlin) and you just knew that so much of what they said got lost in translation. That actually motivted me to learn korean and now I don't need to scavange the internet for bad 140p subs anymore... So, I guess thanks Infinite for motivating me to learn Korean and being the great catalyst that showed me the world of kpop.
The feels! Seeing them struggle and succeed with pure talent gives me immense joy. When I saw their America tour, I devised to learn Korean. Their voices were able to reach us and for that us inspirits will forever be grateful. I couldn't contribute much to their financial fame so I studied Korean so that I could thank them and express myself and not have to be confused by terrible mistranslations.
true.. i could say that im a hater of kpop back before i met infinite.. infinite make me fall into kpop and discover new things and yea now im currently stanning golcha too ! >
They didn't just "appear on a ton of variety shows," they were the very first idol guests on Weekly Idol! I'm a fan so I'm biased, but I credit their great chemistry on the show with helping Weekly Idol become such an iconic show.
YES, it is fact they made Weekly Idol big and great. W.I. was originally meant to last for a couple weeks, and be a short one-off show. However, Infinite practically invited themselves over, the show blew up, and the rest is history.
INFINITE always were the underdogs of K-Pop. I don't even regret getting into them 1-2 months before The Chaser was released. Do you know how glad I was and still am forever thankful when I found out that the CEO sold his house in order to push for Be Mine? It will always mean a lot to us fans that he didn't just give up on INFINITE while other companies might've already let them rot in their basements or disband them.
true,just like jellyfish to gugudan, I'm so glad that infinite ceo didn't give up on them even if he doesn't have enough money to promote them well,that's why he sold his house and everything to make them debut,.maybe it's bcoz he knows that infinite would make it right??
@@beom8839 I know right? Now all ppl know is BTS, how they went from bottom to top, but Infinite was one of the groups that was known for that first...
Is it true that SM was the one which sabotaged Infinite? Like I'm not new to kpop but I came around in late 2012 & after few years I got to know SM took in infinite and purposefully dragged them down to clear exo's competition. I'm still not sure if this is a truth, just asking. Please don't get me wrong, I'm an exol myself so my question has nothing to do with exo
@@ella5276 i might be wrong but there was a time when SM acquired a few entertainment companies. thats how woohyun x key collab happened. after awhile SM wasn’t doing that well and probably stopped investing in the other companies or ended their contracts. but wollim still stayed on supporting the guys.
It's honestly heart breaking when some fans of new groups say things like " K-pop was nothing before our favs debuted " . Dudes , you know nothing about what was K-pop before . #Infiniteislegend
True A lot of new fans argue with people like us who at least know all groups. We can be international fans, may be we don't know all back stories of idols. But still we read listen research a lot. But some 3rd and 4th gen fans are too much toxic too
@@sakura3553 Man… some 3rd/4th gen fans can quite bug headed too. Bragging about view counts and their idols performing on international tv or getting awards outside of Korea. 🗿 Before your favorite idols became idols, our idols were also your fav’s idols. They helped paved the way.
@@parkchimmin7913 first of all i am not a man. Secondly, there is no our or your idols. They r not private properties. I am not a teenager. I hv been following kpop for long years. I know and listen all kpop groups and idols, age group 15 to 50.
@@sakura3553 ??? I was agreeing with you? Also, it’s a figure of speech? Idk if English is your first language, but sometimes words like “man”, “dude”, “bro”, and “guy” can be used a gender neutral terms that signifies camaraderie or friendliness. “What’s up, dude?” “How’s it goin’, my guy?” Anyways, I probably should have it more clear in my previous comment that when I said “your idols” I meant the 3rd/4th gen fans, not you. “You” as in me referring or directly speaking to a hypothetical third party (the 3rd/4th gen fans). It’s just a big misunderstanding. Also, when I said “your idols/my idols”, I meant to distinguish 2nd gen idols (“my” idols; the idols I grew up listening to. And “your” idols; the idols the 3rd/4th gen fans grew up listening to). I didn’t mean for it to imply ownership of the idols.
Bro seriously i know that their fav are popular globally but i think even if their favs were not there someone else would have besn popular and its true .
Infinite is one of THOSE groups for me, where the music is nostalgic but feels current at the same time, where the members stole my heart and won’t give it back even if they go their separate ways, where standards are being set so high that it’s hard for me to just stan anybody after them. This video brought back those feels for me :) thanks dude Edit: hello from 2023!! New Emotions and the rest of the album are amazing 💛 so fun to have them back!!
Same dudeeee.. they raised the bar soo high to a point that everytime I listen to any other groups I will always be back to INFINITE's songs to calm down my soul..
I stopped listening to kpop but infinite will always have a special place in my heart bc they were the only good thing I had in middle school, I was going through some difficult stuff but they kept me going. I always get nostalgic warm vibes when I put my Spotify on shuffle
After watching this video, I'm feeling proud of these three: 1. INFINITE 2. WOOLLIM AND 3. WOOLLIM CEO And guys let me say something. Leadergyu said, " L loves infinite more than any other member." So, he can't leave his love. Trust him, trust INFINITE.
woollim isn´t a good company, it stopped worrying about Infinite and its members once they got other groups and new ways to get money. The company was the principal reason why Infinite couldn't "survive"
yes that's true. Now woollim stop caring Infinite. Even they didn't treat members equally and stop most of the activites. i feel so sad for that and now i am worrying because only woo hyun oppa in woollim. All 5 members are already left the company because they didn't make activities like old days. I hope for comeback when L oppa discharges. I believe in woo hyun oppa too. He tries so hard for us to see them together. TT TT
INFINITE was THAT group that got me into kpop. They were the first group I fell in love with and still love so much. I saw all their shows of when they fist debuted and the struggles they went through. They have such a special place in my heart. I always feel a pang in my chest whenever I think of how under-appreciated they are now. They are incredibly talented, like amazingly talented. They're also amazing human beings. ALL of them, including Hoya who will always be in Inspirits' hearts. ❤️ I got into kpop a little after they debuted, and it pains me to admit this, but I'm a little hurt of how groups like TEEN TOP, INFINITE, B1A4, FT ISLAND, BTOB, B2ST, VIXX, CN BLUE, 2PM, HISTORY, LED APPLE, SPEED, among many others are not known internationally. I love so many kpop groups and wish them all the best, I'm glad kpop is spreading because it's awesome, but I can't help feeling a pang of jealousy when rookie groups get more recognition than these I mentioned above. I get kpop wasn't that famous back then, but still it hurts that so many people don't acknowledge their efforts😭 I wish more people get to know about 2nd and 3rd generation groups cause they're missing out on some of the most talented groups!!!
Don't worry I'm an Army girl💜..And recently i found infinite group... Infinite is such an amazing k-pop idol❣️ it's not about disbanding they disbanded but still I found them so don't worry...
@@infiniteforever9411 I'm A messss now!!!!! Out 6 ~ 4 are Already Serving in the military!😭 Got me!!!! We Still have to Wait for a final group Comeback!!! It hit me So SO HARD now!!!!!😭😭😭😭
Infinite is my one and only kpop group ult group, so when i confessed to my moot that i kinda ‘dislike’ the titles songs and LOVE the b-sides, she looked at me with that weird look. 😂 it’s not like i hate the title songs when i think it again, but it’s more likely i prefer the b sides song, because most of them are gems. It’s like title songs are golds, but the b sides songs are diamonds. Am i weird?
as an inspirit for more than 7 years, i'm very very grateful that you had created this video...i was able to reminisce those moments while infinite is actively promoting...thank you so much! in a few more months, we'll be able to see more of the members since some of them will be discharge this year...
"The only legendary group that has survive past" They are all over even without being active so that's what Infinite is! One of the most successful group,if you stan talent and know the real meaning of kpop SHOULD STAN INFINITE
@@aiya2551 Yea but Seventeen said themselves they made Infinite as their sunbae that they look up. And Golden Child made Infinite (same company) also SVT as their sunbae that they look up.
@@aiya2551 don't do this lol ^^ we can all agree infinite are the original synchronization kings but you can't deny the fact that other groups these days are talented too... also seventeen's role model is literally infinite so idk why you feel the need to bring them down
I'm going to add "Before Seventeen and Astro" because I feel like Astro's synchronization deserves a shoutout too >.< Plus, Seungkwan and Moon Bin are really good friends so lkjsalfkjsaklfalskfj
@@golchaxtrash4908 and he got a few things wrong, like he called ott inspirit and said destiny was their second studio album when it was their second SINGLE album, but in fairness not everyone has our encyclopedic knowledge of infinite's history😂
I still remember the day when Infinite made their debut in 2010. It was the first time that I really experienced a real debut day that’s why they have been special for me. Sunggyu‘s voice is the best voice in Kpop. No joke. It’s the best ever! I can’t express how much I love his voice. In their later years you could see that Hoya wasn’t interested in them anymore. He more likely wanted to do solo acts like acting and solo singing. They also didn’t get enough support from their company anymore like in the past.
Their chemistry was never a problem and they are still very close. Just because Hoya left doesn’t mean the other members drifted apart. They are very much still interested being part of the group. Have you seen their recent interactions Myungsoo included even when half of the members are enlisted. The main problem was the company. Even Hoya said the company didn’t provide his needs. He wanted to do his own music and Myungsoo said something similar. Just shows you haven’t been following them much especially the last few months.
Morning Star I‘ll stay with my opinion about Hoya. I watched many of their newer videos when Hoya was still there and he didn’t even talk with the members. Please don’t lie to yourself. If you really watched them you would see it right away. He wasn’t even interested in them anymore. Like Hyunseung from Beast. They always gave the same vibes to me. But Yeah. Sorry for saying they drifted apart. I didn’t mean it like they don’t get along anymore or anything like that. I mean more like they’re not really supported by their agency like in the past so they can be strong again. I‘m gonna edit my comment for this part
Hoya is still friends with INFINITE members.. the real reason was the company.. they never really give Hoya any freedom for music.. Hoya initially love hip hop.. If woollim agreed to give a little bit of freedom to do things he like,I'm sure Hoya would still be a part of infinite
More & More I didn’t say anything about they are still close to Hoya at present. He only talks to Sunggyu & Dongwoo. All the members had great chemistry even with Hoya but since he was getting acting opportunities so he wanted to go to the acting route or when he said their music taste different so he probably always wanted to go solo. What I meant the other members are still very close to each other even Myungsoo who left the company but not Infinite. They even joked about Myungsoo leaving the company and it was very heartwarming to see because they were being themselves trolling and not taking things serious. By you saying drifted apart you made it seem the whole group when that far from the truth. The company fucked up with them big time. With the ongoing hiatus and not giving members opportunities. Woohyun even said if the company tried they can get them schedules and Sungjong said something similar. Myungsoo + Sungjong even said the company reject lot of their opportunities like variety or acting. Even people who worked inside the company complained about Woollim work ethic.
Theres a year where hoya got injured and couldn't perform with his members. You know how much he loves dancing so how could he left infinite then. If u say u watch their programme show, so u must have watched radio star guested by hoya after he left. He stated that woollim is the one who didn't support his career in acting and singing. Also in his interview during his first solo debut, he also stated the same.
Infinite is really underestimated because they don’t seem to have a large audience but they actually do! They really helped define kpop. I really think that if they decide to continue with the group after military they’re gonna have a really successful return.
@@ssj-rose4572 not like her old performances but since she had three babies she not the same as before... dont down play her like that... beyonce can dance her ass off PERIOD
Woollim have come so far since 2010. INFINITE truly was their last shot and they didn’t fail them, and now they have 3 more successful groups !! I cannot wait to see how woollim keep coming, especially with the hopefully future debut of their woollimz boys 🥺
INFINITE might not sound big to others. People doesnt make much noise of them. Well..it is how EXCLUSIVE thing works. INFINITE is EXCLUSIVE Exclusively for INSPIRITS
I remembered Sunggyu said that the hardest thing for him as a singer is lipsync. I’ve been a fan of them since debute. King of live singing. I hate it when people see them as a nobody.
No need to be rude guys, yg isn't that bad Yg was hated by all k media, so they always look bad with those news But the fact yang hyunsuk and b.i didn't wrong and just get hated because those false news No need to drag other company Both woolim and yg have talented artist
I miss infinite so much. The first boy group to ever make it into my heart which was crowded by girl groups. I miss them so much thank you for covering this :,(
Man, what a story 😍😍. Infinite truly are legends in this industry, and I know when they comeback they’re going to keep rising and slaying the charts. They may have lost a member and L isn’t under Woolim anymore, but I know that despite that they’ll overcome the odds ❤️💕❤️
@@shiningjewel4034 Not only L now, Sunggyu, Dongwoo and Sungyeol They are no longer part of Woollim, but as in other groups it has already happened, although they are not part of the same agency, they still continue to promote the group without any problem.
To me, Infinite was the embodiment of kpop. The choreography, looks, songs are all pure when it comes to the art of kpop. They never tried to do anything trendy with their music to get more views. They stayed tried and true to the formula and were always one of my favorite groups because of that. I always loved knowing they were successful in Korea, even if they weren't on the same level with some of their peers internationally.
Infinite is one of the legendary groups of kpop in my opinion. They set the stage for so many groups like BTS to rise to the world stage. The Chaser will be on my forever playlist!!
This is why BTS fans are seen as immature and disrespectful. BTS themselves acknowledged the seniors tears and sweat for paving the way, very respectful and acknowledging, not angering other group fans at all, but the fans always insisted "BTS did it themselves" lol i pity BTS for having such fans that dig holes for their idols (like blink). Without no kpop awareness from the likes of wonder girls, big bang, psy, SNSD, tvxq, suju even rain can they even dare to venture to murican market lol. Smh. Without kpop awareness can they even be invited? You just have to accept that once upon a time your group was still a baby while other group already sat in throne. Just because now BTS sat in throne doesn't mean other before them are irrelevant lol.
@@lavcndcr2309 yah I totally agree with you... We all must respect senior singers.. they help their juniors to aim high & even they help them without showing off, that's why most fans misunderstood the situations....
@@LiquidDiamondFlute also the fans who welcomed Sunggyu on the day of his discharge. And Woohyun's solo concerts and the last minute fan meet which are all sold-out. That's so crazy!
INFINITE have literally always had bangers, The Chaser being my favourite. For me, if you wanna listen to some true second gen kpop, Nothings Over is where it’s at. Love them with all my heart ❤️
I just wanna share something, through a kdrama called HI-School Love On I got to know Infinite and the kpop world. Infinite was my first ever kpop group and I'm very happy to have know them. It's sad that new kpop stans don't know them that well but I'm just hoping that someday Infinite will be back with a new song and let the world know that they're legendary and should never be fergotten. My experience with kpop is just unbelievable and amazing. My life would have been different without kpop. As time goes by, I meet new kpop groups but Infinite will always be my number 1 group. For now, thousands of Inspirits including myself will be waiting for them to come back again and dominate the kpop industry. Infinite is never ending~ See you soon Infinite, we all will be waiting...
i got into kpop the same way and i agree with every single word you said, i absolutely love the way you worded it 🥺 they will forever have a special place in my heart and no matter how long it takes until they come back, they are the number one 💛
I remember when The Chaser came out I became obsessed with Infinite and till this day I have all my favorite tracks on Spotify. They are truly amazing and new kpop fans need to know them
Infinite was one of the first groups that got me into Kpop. I was a casual listener but Infinite was the first group that I actually stanned hardcore and everything. I will never forget them! Thanks for the video! Infinite is the best!
INFINITE really deserves all the recognition.. infinite is the only boy group who introduced me to kpop and their whole journey and story is worth telling...
I remembered renting on computer shops just to watch 'Nothing's Over' by Infinite and I've been a fan since then. Also their show, Infinite Ranking King. I was able to watch it every week, thanks to TVN lol I miss those days! This video made me miss the boys sm and my gradeschool days lol I was jamming to 'The Chaser' at the back of the classroom with my friends and we got scolded. The Chaser was iconic, without a doubt. I just didn't realize it back then cause I was in grade school hahahaha just wanna share huhu
"The odds are infinite" woollim stans know that they really went through a lot. Watching their first company song now after this, have a different feels so much impact.
I fell in love with INFINITE after watching them on the first episode of Weekly Idol. Also, I had the opportunity to go to their concert in Mexico and OMG their voices and stage presence is no joke. Perfect synchronisation, energy, looks, voices. They will always be my favourite
Thank you for making me cry for straight 12 and half minutes.. Today, there are very less ppl who know Infinite anymore, with other 3rd and 4th gen grps growing over, barely grps like Infinite come out. I am glad that you took your time to talk about them! Forever an inspirit
INFINITE made history.. and believe me no one will ever forget them cuz they mark ur life.. thank you INFINITE for everything. I'll forever be part of the Pearl Metal Gold Ocean INSPIRIT
Ah yes, my favourite boy band of all-time. I feel like Infinite become impossible to ignore as you learn about kpop, since although they're not among the first bands you'll learn about, as soon as you hear their songs they stay with you. Add to that their amazing dancing, exceptional vocals, perfect live performances and hilarious variety appearances, and they're a truly unforgettable group. I really hope we can see some more out of the guys when they finish their time in the army, as long as that's what they want to do.
I started getting into Infinite after Before The Dawn came out (shortly after I started getting into Kpop near the end of 2010) and it was awesome to sort of witness their rise and be along for the ride when they came out with banger after banger. Oof!! 😍 One of my all-time favorite groups. I remember feeling emotional when I heard the intro of The Chaser for the first time. Spring/Summer of 2012 was a really weird but nostalgic period for me.
As a new fan in the kpop industry, I am glad that I even found and stanned these kings! I have just been a fan since 2017 and stanned 3 groups since then. They are one of the few groups that I stan. I hope many more kpop fans know and appreciate them. I'm not even asking them to stan, but just show their appreciation for them which they deserve. Thank you for the creator who made this video. I learned so much more about them. I hope many fans see this and know Infinite. They're stan worthy. I promise. Thank you to the creator again! Much appreciated!
I came from your treasure video and I didn't know you did a video on INFINITE! My boys 😭 I've always said this- INFINITE is really the best example of what an idol group should be. Knife dance- perfect vocals- non-lipsync live- crazy variety show skills and more. Trully- kpop's biggest underdogs.
Watching this makes me so so proud of INFINITE. And to be INSPIRIT too since their early days. 11 years with INFINITE, and to many more years together!
I've been an Inspirit since 2011 and this video really made me tear up. INFINITE really helped me through a lot growing up, and it was so nice to relive those moments. I still remember being late to school back in 8th grade on the day The Chaser dropped because I needed to see the MV LOL. I saw them live in LA at their One Great Step tour, it being my first ever concert. I'm still really thankful to these boys. I don't think I could ever love another group more than them.
thank you ! you will be addicted to their b side tracks even more! you can check my playlist i put some and i will continue later , if you like them you should see also " back " and " the eye" they are hit
Update: Just Woohyun and Sungjong remain at Woollim. Sungkyu, Dongwoo, Sungyeol, and Myungsoo did not renew their Contracts and signed with other Companies. Even though they are with other Companies they still remain together as INFINITE. They are faithful to each other and to their fans. We all are never ending.
The Chaser is for me still one of the best songs in history. The verses, rap, melody; everything is just right about that song. You rarely get any song that is so well produced. Gosh the love I have for it!!! I can hear it non-stop and for me that says a lot while I get tired of a song very easy.
Infinite is really THAT group where people start to recognize the groups that are not from the 3 big companies. They are the start where ppl start to look up the groups that are from small company.

I'm only sad that I couldn't know them earlier, but I love listening to their albums and seeing their programs. Honestly, after I met them, the other groups kinda looked less interesting for me. They raised the bars
don't worry it's different in korea, they're well known, they're legendary.
there are a ton of newer inspirits that are appearing because of myungsoo's dramas recently, though, so that's good ^^
@@helo9885 I became kpops fan in 2015 ..
I was only in grade 2
Infinite was my second group that i stained
Love you infinite
We miss you...

exactly
They’re obviously the OGs of kpop, its sad how alot of kpop fans don’t acknowledge them as king of synchronization. They’re even the first kpop group to perform in BILLBOARD. They succesfully dominated the whole world! They’re also the main creators of the finger heart and synchronised dances and Scorpion dance. Woollim does everything for their groups, they pay them well.
THIS!
I feel that they watched and were a big fan of Quest Crew in ABDC. I bet that "scorpion dance" was heavily inspired from Quest's decathlon challenge back in '09. That's what I think and if it's true I like them even more.
Agree
actually, woohyun spiked the trend for the finger heart, the actual originator for the finger heart was jang suwon from sechskies during a couple live stage back in 1998,,, it took two legends to imprint the finger heart as kpop's most iconic trademark
Yess their songs were so good I loved them sm back in like 2016
Fun fact, Infinite's The Chaser was #3 on Billboard's top 100 of the 2010's, beating iconic songs like "I am the best" by 2ne1, "I got a boy" by SNSD, "Sherlock" by Shinee and "Blood, Sweat and tears" by BTS.
Yess.. people tend to overlook INFINITE..
Fun fact, there's no such thing as Billboard's top 100
@@jhazminjoyguerrero4537 there is check Google billboard top 100 kpop songs of the decade.. iu's good day is 1, red velvet's red flavour is 2, INFINITE's chaser is 3, 2ne1's I'm the best is 4, girl's generation's I got a boy is 5..
INFINITE forever yeah don’t listen to that other dude. He wanted to be an asshole without knowing anything
@@jhazminjoyguerrero4537 do some research before u stating ur opinion here.
Infinite and Teen Top are two underdogs who came from nothing and made it to the top. Both groups paid for their entire company building
YEEES
The difference was that teen top ceo was wealthy and well established in the industry whereas infinite wasnt
@@shinyeee1709 yes, but on the other hand Woollim had 2 established bands while TOP Media had none. So neither of them really had the edge over the other
@@akiheavenly6 Yooo that's right, Woolim had Nell, a fairly well-known band, before Infinite debut
Teenfinite best bois
Are we all just going to forget “Back”? That song along helped me get hooked on K-pop. “Back” is the definition of a bop. 😩
Back is my favorite song of Infinite, I´m not kidding
it's their best song period!
Aye sis, Back literally got me interested in them, too.
It's a gem😌💛✨
Yes that whole album was legendary!
I was waiting for him to talk about it
Infinite is everyone's first love and the key to their kpop hearts. The boys are so innocent and the only guys who probably loved their fans with those heart throws. Ooh nostalgia. I hope they have a comeback with L and Hoya
unfortunatelly, hoya left infinite
With L yes, but not Hoya because he left the group.
Love L
The singing while running around the Han river is a woollim thing. Everyone in Woollim does this
I would love to see juri do this 😻
... did Epik High do this? Lmao I wanna hear the stories of _that_
Beyoncé also does this, it’s a very beneficial practicing technique to build singing stamina and strength. So many singers may also use this technique.
essennagerry
Uhm not so sure but since infinite had to do that and epic high helped them out a lot, they probably did. Maybe not at the beginning but it had become a thing for Woollim artists to be expected to do before golcha debuted
Gol-Cha too. I've seen one video of them talking about this thing. Hahahha
THE ORIGINAL KINGS OF SYNCHRONIZATION GOSH I MISSED THIS GROUP, ONE OF THE FIRST GROUP THAT I STANNED REAL HARD
Yaaaaaaaaas!!💯👏✨
ME TOO 💕💕💕
literally same
Me too
same and I was like 11 years old.. now im 21 🥲
Sunggyu said he still talks with Hoya. All Inspirits' hearts were beating again
Really?? I really hope they are still in contact..
Can I know when? In which show did he say that?
@@diyarasheed7912 he said it in his vlive the one he did on his birthday. You can watch it in vlive app

Y not? infinite will always have Hoya.. Hoya will always be part of Infinite..😊
They were called kings of synchronization back in the day. Now most group have perfect sync and hord choreographies, back then INFINITE was on the throne for this category!
so sad that when kings of synchronization was the topic, Seventeen is the only group people know.
"Well, when it comes to this group the odds are infinite." I am ugly crying right now. Infinite was the group that got me into kpop. I remember watching like 140p bad reuploads of sesame player and weekly idol and it just brought me so much joy to see these boys work hard and achieve their dreams over the years. In 2016 I saw them live on their second world tour and it was a magical moment. Sadly, the translator was really bad (it was the concert in Berlin) and you just knew that so much of what they said got lost in translation. That actually motivted me to learn korean and now I don't need to scavange the internet for bad 140p subs anymore... So, I guess thanks Infinite for motivating me to learn Korean and being the great catalyst that showed me the world of kpop.
The feels! Seeing them struggle and succeed with pure talent gives me immense joy. When I saw their America tour, I devised to learn Korean. Their voices were able to reach us and for that us inspirits will forever be grateful. I couldn't contribute much to their financial fame so I studied Korean so that I could thank them and express myself and not have to be confused by terrible mistranslations.
Sameeeeee 🤧🤧🤧💙
YES the shitty ass quality sesame player i would rewatch it all over again
true.. i could say that im a hater of kpop back before i met infinite.. infinite make me fall into kpop and discover new things and yea now im currently stanning golcha too ! >
I was there too.. 140p shitty quality 😢😢😢
They didn't just "appear on a ton of variety shows," they were the very first idol guests on Weekly Idol! I'm a fan so I'm biased, but I credit their great chemistry on the show with helping Weekly Idol become such an iconic show.
YES, it is fact they made Weekly Idol big and great. W.I. was originally meant to last for a couple weeks, and be a short one-off show. However, Infinite practically invited themselves over, the show blew up, and the rest is history.
violetgirl1996 Doni and Coni said it as well
I still watch their 2x dances
Infinite has some og bops
Yep
True
The Chaser was one of a kind type of vibe when I first heard it..
Before the dawn still my favorite
@@kylelin4408 It's still one of a kind till this day
INFINITE always were the underdogs of K-Pop. I don't even regret getting into them 1-2 months before The Chaser was released. Do you know how glad I was and still am forever thankful when I found out that the CEO sold his house in order to push for Be Mine? It will always mean a lot to us fans that he didn't just give up on INFINITE while other companies might've already let them rot in their basements or disband them.
true,just like jellyfish to gugudan,
I'm so glad that infinite ceo didn't give up on them even if he doesn't have enough money to promote them well,that's why he sold his house and everything to make them debut,.maybe it's bcoz he knows that infinite would make it right??
Now THIS is “from the bottom to the top”. They are truly an inspiration.
If only the internet was big during their time 😌
@@beom8839 I know right? Now all ppl know is BTS, how they went from bottom to top, but Infinite was one of the groups that was known for that first...
Is it true that SM was the one which sabotaged Infinite? Like I'm not new to kpop but I came around in late 2012 & after few years I got to know SM took in infinite and purposefully dragged them down to clear exo's competition. I'm still not sure if this is a truth, just asking. Please don't get me wrong, I'm an exol myself so my question has nothing to do with exo
@@ella5276 i might be wrong but there was a time when SM acquired a few entertainment companies. thats how woohyun x key collab happened. after awhile SM wasn’t doing that well and probably stopped investing in the other companies or ended their contracts. but wollim still stayed on supporting the guys.
It's honestly heart breaking when some fans of new groups say things like " K-pop was nothing before our favs debuted " .
Dudes , you know nothing about what was K-pop before .
#Infiniteislegend
True
A lot of new fans argue with people like us who at least know all groups.
We can be international fans, may be we don't know all back stories of idols.
But still we read listen research a lot.
But some 3rd and 4th gen fans are too much toxic too
@@sakura3553 Man… some 3rd/4th gen fans can quite bug headed too. Bragging about view counts and their idols performing on international tv or getting awards outside of Korea. 🗿 Before your favorite idols became idols, our idols were also your fav’s idols. They helped paved the way.
@@parkchimmin7913 first of all i am not a man.
Secondly, there is no our or your idols. They r not private properties.
I am not a teenager.
I hv been following kpop for long years.
I know and listen all kpop groups and idols, age group 15 to 50.
@@sakura3553 ??? I was agreeing with you? Also, it’s a figure of speech? Idk if English is your first language, but sometimes words like “man”, “dude”, “bro”, and “guy” can be used a gender neutral terms that signifies camaraderie or friendliness. “What’s up, dude?” “How’s it goin’, my guy?” Anyways, I probably should have it more clear in my previous comment that when I said “your idols” I meant the 3rd/4th gen fans, not you. “You” as in me referring or directly speaking to a hypothetical third party (the 3rd/4th gen fans). It’s just a big misunderstanding. Also, when I said “your idols/my idols”, I meant to distinguish 2nd gen idols (“my” idols; the idols I grew up listening to. And “your” idols; the idols the 3rd/4th gen fans grew up listening to). I didn’t mean for it to imply ownership of the idols.
Bro seriously i know that their fav are popular globally but i think even if their favs were not there someone else would have besn popular and its true .
Infinite is one of THOSE groups for me, where the music is nostalgic but feels current at the same time, where the members stole my heart and won’t give it back even if they go their separate ways, where standards are being set so high that it’s hard for me to just stan anybody after them. This video brought back those feels for me :) thanks dude
Edit: hello from 2023!! New Emotions and the rest of the album are amazing 💛 so fun to have them back!!
Same dudeeee.. they raised the bar soo high to a point that everytime I listen to any other groups I will always be back to INFINITE's songs to calm down my soul..
Same!!!! 💯
I stopped listening to kpop but infinite will always have a special place in my heart bc they were the only good thing I had in middle school, I was going through some difficult stuff but they kept me going. I always get nostalgic warm vibes when I put my Spotify on shuffle
Infinite hits me in the feels EVERY time
I totally agree!!!!
their whole discography is so iconic and flawless
no one is really doing it like them 😩
Infinite has plenty of the greatest songs in kpop history. They are truly legendary.
After watching this video, I'm feeling proud of these three:
1. INFINITE
2. WOOLLIM AND
3. WOOLLIM CEO
And guys let me say something. Leadergyu said, " L loves infinite more than any other member." So, he can't leave his love. Trust him, trust INFINITE.
Yes that is true but it seems that some Inspirits forgot and simply believed the ridicule that L had left the group.
woollim isn´t a good company, it stopped worrying about Infinite and its members once they got other groups and new ways to get money. The company was the principal reason why Infinite couldn't "survive"
yes that's true. Now woollim stop caring Infinite. Even they didn't treat members equally and stop most of the activites. i feel so sad for that and now i am worrying because only woo hyun oppa in woollim. All 5 members are already left the company because they didn't make activities like old days. I hope for comeback when L oppa discharges. I believe in woo hyun oppa too. He tries so hard for us to see them together. TT TT
They are backkkkkkkkk on 31st July
INFINITE was THAT group that got me into kpop. They were the first group I fell in love with and still love so much. I saw all their shows of when they fist debuted and the struggles they went through. They have such a special place in my heart. I always feel a pang in my chest whenever I think of how under-appreciated they are now. They are incredibly talented, like amazingly talented. They're also amazing human beings. ALL of them, including Hoya who will always be in Inspirits' hearts. ❤️
I got into kpop a little after they debuted, and it pains me to admit this, but I'm a little hurt of how groups like TEEN TOP, INFINITE, B1A4, FT ISLAND, BTOB, B2ST, VIXX, CN BLUE, 2PM, HISTORY, LED APPLE, SPEED, among many others are not known internationally. I love so many kpop groups and wish them all the best, I'm glad kpop is spreading because it's awesome, but I can't help feeling a pang of jealousy when rookie groups get more recognition than these I mentioned above. I get kpop wasn't that famous back then, but still it hurts that so many people don't acknowledge their efforts😭
I wish more people get to know about 2nd and 3rd generation groups cause they're missing out on some of the most talented groups!!!
Don't worry I'm an Army girl💜..And recently i found infinite group... Infinite is such an amazing k-pop idol❣️ it's not about disbanding they disbanded but still I found them so don't worry...

@@golchaxtrash4908 and he got a few things wrong, like he called ott inspirit and said destiny was their second studio album when it was their second SINGLE album, but in fairness not everyone has our encyclopedic knowledge of infinite's history😂
@@IxiaClover yeah.. I admit at least he tried 😂
I still remember the day when Infinite made their debut in 2010. It was the first time that I really experienced a real debut day that’s why they have been special for me. Sunggyu‘s voice is the best voice in Kpop. No joke. It’s the best ever! I can’t express how much I love his voice.
In their later years you could see that Hoya wasn’t interested in them anymore. He more likely wanted to do solo acts like acting and solo singing. They also didn’t get enough support from their company anymore like in the past.
Their chemistry was never a problem and they are still very close. Just because Hoya left doesn’t mean the other members drifted apart. They are very much still interested being part of the group. Have you seen their recent interactions Myungsoo included even when half of the members are enlisted. The main problem was the company. Even Hoya said the company didn’t provide his needs. He wanted to do his own music and Myungsoo said something similar. Just shows you haven’t been following them much especially the last few months.
Morning Star
I‘ll stay with my opinion about Hoya. I watched many of their newer videos when Hoya was still there and he didn’t even talk with the members. Please don’t lie to yourself. If you really watched them you would see it right away. He wasn’t even interested in them anymore. Like Hyunseung from Beast. They always gave the same vibes to me.
But Yeah. Sorry for saying they drifted apart. I didn’t mean it like they don’t get along anymore or anything like that. I mean more like they’re not really supported by their agency like in the past so they can be strong again. I‘m gonna edit my comment for this part
Hoya is still friends with INFINITE members.. the real reason was the company.. they never really give Hoya any freedom for music.. Hoya initially love hip hop.. If woollim agreed to give a little bit of freedom to do things he like,I'm sure Hoya would still be a part of infinite
More & More I didn’t say anything about they are still close to Hoya at present. He only talks to Sunggyu & Dongwoo. All the members had great chemistry even with Hoya but since he was getting acting opportunities so he wanted to go to the acting route or when he said their music taste different so he probably always wanted to go solo. What I meant the other members are still very close to each other even Myungsoo who left the company but not Infinite. They even joked about Myungsoo leaving the company and it was very heartwarming to see because they were being themselves trolling and not taking things serious. By you saying drifted apart you made it seem the whole group when that far from the truth. The company fucked up with them big time. With the ongoing hiatus and not giving members opportunities. Woohyun even said if the company tried they can get them schedules and Sungjong said something similar. Myungsoo + Sungjong even said the company reject lot of their opportunities like variety or acting. Even people who worked inside the company complained about Woollim work ethic.
Theres a year where hoya got injured and couldn't perform with his members. You know how much he loves dancing so how could he left infinite then. If u say u watch their programme show, so u must have watched radio star guested by hoya after he left. He stated that woollim is the one who didn't support his career in acting and singing. Also in his interview during his first solo debut, he also stated the same.
Woolim Artists is on a different level and many people can't accept that and didn't give the rightful credit to them specially in INFINITE.
Hi infinite its me your young avid fan and your young friend its me angel infinite fighting fight to covid 19
Infinite is really underestimated because they don’t seem to have a large audience but they actually do! They really helped define kpop. I really think that if they decide to continue with the group after military they’re gonna have a really successful return.
Beyonce's dad had her run on a treadmill while she wore heels to help improve her stamina. It's extreme but it worked

Woollim have come so far since 2010. INFINITE truly was their last shot and they didn’t fail them, and now they have 3 more successful groups !! I cannot wait to see how woollim keep coming, especially with the hopefully future debut of their woollimz boys 🥺
INFINITE might not sound big to others.
People doesnt make much noise of them.
Well..it is how EXCLUSIVE thing works.
INFINITE is EXCLUSIVE
Exclusively for INSPIRITS
I remembered Sunggyu said that the hardest thing for him as a singer is lipsync. I’ve been a fan of them since debute. King of live singing. I hate it when people see them as a nobody.
Infinite was the reason why I started listening to kpop💛 They were the first group that I’ve ever stanned so they will forever be close to my heart
“Woohyun was accepted by YG entertainment “
Thank god he didn’t join

"But for this group the odds are INFINITE". That was POWERFUL
Dude said, "aht aht i'm selling my house for these boys success" and boy did it pay off.
I still cant describe how much inspirits miss their boys T T
To me, Infinite was the embodiment of kpop. The choreography, looks, songs are all pure when it comes to the art of kpop. They never tried to do anything trendy with their music to get more views. They stayed tried and true to the formula and were always one of my favorite groups because of that. I always loved knowing they were successful in Korea, even if they weren't on the same level with some of their peers internationally.
Infinite is one of the legendary groups of kpop in my opinion. They set the stage for so many groups like BTS to rise to the world stage. The Chaser will be on my forever playlist!!
False, they didn't set the stage for BTS. BTS paved their own way.
Yeah they did set the stage for other groups to go international. Even BTS
Jhaz G with the help of bands like infinite and shinee making the industry recognized overseas
This is why BTS fans are seen as immature and disrespectful. BTS themselves acknowledged the seniors tears and sweat for paving the way, very respectful and acknowledging, not angering other group fans at all, but the fans always insisted "BTS did it themselves" lol i pity BTS for having such fans that dig holes for their idols (like blink).
Without no kpop awareness from the likes of wonder girls, big bang, psy, SNSD, tvxq, suju even rain can they even dare to venture to murican market lol. Smh. Without kpop awareness can they even be invited? You just have to accept that once upon a time your group was still a baby while other group already sat in throne. Just because now BTS sat in throne doesn't mean other before them are irrelevant lol.
@@lavcndcr2309 yah I totally agree with you... We all must respect senior singers.. they help their juniors to aim high & even they help them without showing off, that's why most fans misunderstood the situations....

I just wanna share something, through a kdrama called HI-School Love On I got to know Infinite and the kpop world. Infinite was my first ever kpop group and I'm very happy to have know them. It's sad that new kpop stans don't know them that well but I'm just hoping that someday Infinite will be back with a new song and let the world know that they're legendary and should never be fergotten. My experience with kpop is just unbelievable and amazing. My life would have been different without kpop. As time goes by, I meet new kpop groups but Infinite will always be my number 1 group. For now, thousands of Inspirits including myself will be waiting for them to come back again and dominate the kpop industry. Infinite is never ending~ See you soon Infinite, we all will be waiting...
i got into kpop the same way and i agree with every single word you said, i absolutely love the way you worded it 🥺 they will forever have a special place in my heart and no matter how long it takes until they come back, they are the number one 💛

i hate it when people act like they are already disband, if ure really a fan u can follow them on their social media or some active fan account
This makes me so happy to stan infinite. They overcame everything to get where they were/are.
You forgot to mention how L was literally an it boy back in the day not just in korea but also overseas that lead new fans on infinite
and he even set 'THE STANDARD' so high for visuals. how powerful.
I love how you have put weekly idol when talking about shows. They were the very first guest 😎
Infinite is the most inspiring group that I've been a fan of. They really showed that hardwork does wonders. Gosh I love them so much!
I remember when The Chaser came out I became obsessed with Infinite and till this day I have all my favorite tracks on Spotify. They are truly amazing and new kpop fans need to know them
Infinite was one of the first groups that got me into Kpop. I was a casual listener but Infinite was the first group that I actually stanned hardcore and everything. I will never forget them! Thanks for the video! Infinite is the best!
For Your Information.
The Chaser is arguably the best K-Pop song of all time. and "Bad" is arguably the K-Pop Song Of The Year of 2015.
INFINITE PAVED THE WAY,AND THATS ON PERIODT-
True Facts
I have no idea why this made me emotional but it did. Inspirit for life.
INFINITE really deserves all the recognition.. infinite is the only boy group who introduced me to kpop and their whole journey and story is worth telling...
I remember watching L drama first, that's how I knew that there was a whole Legendary group, INFINITE IS NO JOKE
Me too. I enjoyed infinite songs but never got into them until L’s drama Angel.
Please do a "What happened to TVXQ"
Lola Cole ooh
Yess
yes please!

Yesssss, but that will be one of his most difficult challenges...
I remembered renting on computer shops just to watch 'Nothing's Over' by Infinite and I've been a fan since then. Also their show, Infinite Ranking King. I was able to watch it every week, thanks to TVN lol I miss those days! This video made me miss the boys sm and my gradeschool days lol I was jamming to 'The Chaser' at the back of the classroom with my friends and we got scolded. The Chaser was iconic, without a doubt. I just didn't realize it back then cause I was in grade school hahahaha just wanna share huhu
I will always love Infinite. They have a special place in the corner of my heart. 😌
"The odds are infinite"
woollim stans know that they really went through a lot. Watching their first company song now after this, have a different feels so much impact.
I stan them for so long and even made an Instagram Fan account which had 14k followers. Sad that these happened to the group after Hoya left.
Infinite was one of the first groups I ever got into. I was/am absolutely in love with them and their teamwork and personalities.
I fell in love with INFINITE after watching them on the first episode of Weekly Idol. Also, I had the opportunity to go to their concert in Mexico and OMG their voices and stage presence is no joke. Perfect synchronisation, energy, looks, voices. They will always be my favourite
Thank you for making me cry for straight 12 and half minutes..
Today, there are very less ppl who know Infinite anymore, with other 3rd and 4th gen grps growing over, barely grps like Infinite come out. I am glad that you took your time to talk about them! Forever an inspirit
INFINITE made history.. and believe me no one will ever forget them cuz they mark ur life.. thank you INFINITE for everything.
I'll forever be part of the Pearl Metal Gold Ocean INSPIRIT
INSPIRITSS
for me their song "The Chaser" is the song of the decade. no one comes me. periodt.
Ah yes, my favourite boy band of all-time. I feel like Infinite become impossible to ignore as you learn about kpop, since although they're not among the first bands you'll learn about, as soon as you hear their songs they stay with you. Add to that their amazing dancing, exceptional vocals, perfect live performances and hilarious variety appearances, and they're a truly unforgettable group. I really hope we can see some more out of the guys when they finish their time in the army, as long as that's what they want to do.
I started getting into Infinite after Before The Dawn came out (shortly after I started getting into Kpop near the end of 2010) and it was awesome to sort of witness their rise and be along for the ride when they came out with banger after banger. Oof!! 😍 One of my all-time favorite groups.
I remember feeling emotional when I heard the intro of The Chaser for the first time. Spring/Summer of 2012 was a really weird but nostalgic period for me.
As a new fan in the kpop industry, I am glad that I even found and stanned these kings! I have just been a fan since 2017 and stanned 3 groups since then. They are one of the few groups that I stan. I hope many more kpop fans know and appreciate them. I'm not even asking them to stan, but just show their appreciation for them which they deserve. Thank you for the creator who made this video. I learned so much more about them. I hope many fans see this and know Infinite. They're stan worthy. I promise. Thank you to the creator again! Much appreciated!
I came from your treasure video and I didn't know you did a video on INFINITE! My boys 😭 I've always said this- INFINITE is really the best example of what an idol group should be. Knife dance- perfect vocals- non-lipsync live- crazy variety show skills and more.
Trully- kpop's biggest underdogs.
Watching this makes me so so proud of INFINITE. And to be INSPIRIT too since their early days. 11 years with INFINITE, and to many more years together!
I've been an Inspirit since 2011 and this video really made me tear up. INFINITE really helped me through a lot growing up, and it was so nice to relive those moments. I still remember being late to school back in 8th grade on the day The Chaser dropped because I needed to see the MV LOL. I saw them live in LA at their One Great Step tour, it being my first ever concert. I'm still really thankful to these boys. I don't think I could ever love another group more than them.
i don’t stan infinite but all of the songs played here just rang a bell in my head. infinite legends 😔✊
thank you ! you will be addicted to their b side tracks even more! you can check my playlist i put some and i will continue later , if you like them you should see also " back " and " the eye" they are hit
the chaser is one of the best kpop songs of all time. it gives me chills every time i listen to it. its genuinely so beautiful
Update: Just Woohyun and Sungjong remain at Woollim. Sungkyu, Dongwoo, Sungyeol, and Myungsoo did not renew their Contracts and signed with other Companies. Even though they are with other Companies they still remain together as INFINITE. They are faithful to each other and to their fans. We all are never ending.
Infinite is one of my ult bias groups and I’m still praying for the day they reunite 😭😭😭
Let's wait a little bit more.. we will see them together
I want them to break every record on earth with their new album. They deserve so much more. 😭❤️
The Chaser is for me still one of the best songs in history. The verses, rap, melody; everything is just right about that song. You rarely get any song that is so well produced. Gosh the love I have for it!!! I can hear it non-stop and for me that says a lot while I get tired of a song very easy.
Can't thank you enough to make this video. Being an INSPIRIT for 8 years, I've seen how they grow up. People need to know what happened. Thanks again.
Infinite is really THAT group where people start to recognize the groups that are not from the 3 big companies. They are the start where ppl start to look up the groups that are from small company.
What happen to
-teen top
-Speed/coed school
-brave girls
Emily Robles and History (might just die)
I miss Teen Top 😭
@@augiebellebacolod4981 teen top performed yesterday on kbs. And celebrated their 10th anniversary. You should have your notification on if you miss them
Teeeeeeeeen Tooooooooooop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah agreed.
I miss all these groups add mad clown to this and boyfriend 😭
I became a fan of Infinite in 2012, when i was 12, and that's the start of my life as a fanboy for the last 8 years~
Wah. "The odds are Infinite" is so true. Im looking forward to their eventual comeback, ive been an Inspirit since debut and despite that I am a Carat and Blink and whatnot as well, I will drop EVERYTHING when Infinite comes back. Thanks for making this video!
I ended up here after finding out Oneus’s Be Mine kingdom performance was a cover from Infinite. I was definitely not expecting to shed tears for these boys I’ve never heard of until now. Thanks for sharing this video!!
Infinite is the one who introduce me into this wonderful kpop world. I'm and I always will be an inspirit.
I'm soo thankful to you for making this video.
Thank You
Yow it's 2024 and guess what? They still slayeedddddd with their new song "New Emotions" 🔥🔥🔥
When you say infinite is one of those kpop groups where you have heard of their name but never bother to check out.. yessss you are 100% rightt
Infinite really worked for and rightfully deserved their success. It's crazy how much was on the line during their Be Mine period & I'm glad everything worked out or we wouldn't have the many bops from them.
Honorable mention: The chaser is still one of the best song in kpop. Literally the definition of kpop.
Ive been a casual fan of infinite. Thank you for this video I learned so much about their struggles and triumphs I appreciate them much more now
I have no doubt my boys will come back with power when they return from the military. I'm ready to have all my boys back. They are all Infinite to me no matter if they are still there or not.
