A RETIRED DANCER'S POV- Purple Kiss "memeM" M/V+Dance Practice

WTF DOES “OG KPOP STAN" EVEN MEAN?!⬇️
Supposedly "original gangster”, can be seen as “old generation", personally viewed as “old-school”.🤓 I’ve been into Korean music since 1998 when I was 15, and using “kpop stan” is more catchy (super cringe or not) than “person who’s listened to Korean music since 1998”, amirite or AMIRITE.😂 For a bit of dance background details, feel free to check out my "About" section!

The person you pointed the vocals on is Purple Kiss's maknae Swan. I dare say she has probably one of the more unique voices in kpop rn. She has done some covers which showcases her vocals well, including NCT U's Make a Wish, Tone and I's Dance Monkey. She also did the vocal guide for Chungha's Snapping and Mamamoo's Wind Flower

[@ELmayberry]

love Swan 😍

[@hui373]

They're promoting "Pretty Psycho", a b-side that SLAPS. They already did a performance in their debut showcase that I TRULY RECOMMEND. Also, the intro for this album (Illusion) has a performance video if you're interested 💗 Thank you for reacting to them!!!!

[@mischerub]

Musicality musicality musicality. Musicality, musicality, musi-cality. MUSICALITY!

[@NathyIsabella]

at first I thought "this choreography is okay, nothing toooo special or toooo crazy..." but after watching the dance practice... WOW!!! I'm tired just by watching they go hard, change formation in 0.5s, go up and down, lay on the floor, etc... hahaha it is so good, the music show versions aren't doing justice to it hahaha

[@AvatarStormBringer]

Yes! Jieun's biceps need a patent! She's not the main dancer but my attention was on her most of the time.

[@jinsoul7805]

Me too ! She so good tho actually 🧍🏻‍♀️

[@user-cy4bf6if8x]

Purple Kiss is really one of the groups who everyone respect. It might not be popular as others, but they impress with their vocals, dance moves, stage presence, visual, etc. I mean they have everything.

[@yukihira333]

Most Underrated GG in 4th Gen Don't sleep on Purplekiss Y'all they are coming istg... Yuki one of the best 4th Gen Rapper... 💯

@@dino.nuggies2382 yes and she only debuted a year ago with just 3 comebacks atm... crazy

[@wesxvin]

10:41 Im just out here exclaiming MUSICALITY to every single moment it needs to be exclaimed lol there's no going back, it's a solidified term already

[@p3030134]

Purple Kiss choreos are next level.

[@wesxvin]

💜 PURPLE IS BACK 💜 they came to put us on a ride with this one, everything is soooo interesting!!! the vocals, rap, choreo and the beat changes are chief kiss 👌 it was no joke when they said they'd be in ppls heads

[@aiyahaichan]

If you love darkness, I feel like you would love their 2 story films for this comeback along with their intro: illusion. Thanks for the reaction!

[@Mike-James]

I remember what you said when you saw their debut, they were ready, seems you were right. each time they display something different, stronger, can't wait for their first concert.

[@mattevans6752]

When Thina finishes her first watch through of the dance practice and there's still thirteen minutes left in the video 😍 That breakdown of their dance practice is what I've been waiting for. Thank you! Also, I have to admit that at first Thina's use of the word musicality threw me off, but once I understood what she meant by it (which took like one video) I really started to like how she uses it and I think that it's a really helpful way for her to describe things.

[@ELmayberry]

yeah, I agree 😌

[@algoribbon9992]

Musicality, musicality, MUSICALITY!! I wish you would talk more about musicality in dance. I'm not a trained dancer, but I am a trained musician and when I wave my body around in what I call "dance" I do it with feeling and hopefully musicality. Purple Kiss are such good dancers and when you start to talk about vocals - Swan and Na Go Eun just give me chills. I love this group. And I always love and look forward to your take. Keep doing what you do!! Thank you Thina!!

[@emanuellesouza4227]

thina I don't know if you know but purple kiss are the queens of intros!!! I highly recommend you make a video reacting to the 3 intros they already have, all intros have dance practice too pleaaaase

[@2CuteClever]

love how you acknowledged how good they are for a newer good. their killing it more than groups who have been in the game much longer bc their comebacks NEVER miss!!

[@smittyfiggpaints]

Say musicality as much as you f'n want!! This is full of it! You're giving us great content who cares what words you use!

[@WWEKing330]

Their album is really worth checking out as well

[@tana-db4he]

btw purple kiss has great short story films to this memem era they feature cya from onewe (bass guitarist and rapper there, also produces their songs alongside with other members, onewe are amazing, u should check them out, tho they don't have choreos etc since they are a band) also cya was in pk zombie MV, the guy who fainted in the end and also the guy on swan's phone's screen wallpaper, he participated in creating this song I love how rbw artists always interact and help each other

[@StephanieMichelle64]

Love your use of musicality! Never change!

[@RudeMekanicals]

YES TO MUSICALITY!! Seriously though, the power they put in their moves, and how much they're synchronised, very impressive

[@TheMetalPigeon]

Appreciate your indepth reactions to the dance practice for PK... that part when the "I'm in your head" chorus kicks in, the way the rest of the members behind Goeun just sink a bit and look straight up, its like those old scenes in the X-Files when people would get locked under the control of some alien spaceship flying directly overhead beaming that bright light down on them (that tractor beam thing I guess). That's such a cool effect for a dance choreo, for 6/7 of the group to be entirely still during the launching of the chorus, its unexpected and kinda creepy. I should expect nothing less from Purple Kiss.

[@hyunnamoroll_]

Purple Kiss is super talented and they deserve more attention!!!

[@FloraNB]

Yess, was waiting for this, as soon as the dance practice was up I figured your reaction would be out soon 😊 I love Purple Kiss so much, they're an amazing group all across the board. And yeah I definitely recommend checking out "My Heart Skip a Beat"; I'm looking forward to it.

[@SidratJ]

First time in this channel. Loved the commentary, loved the accent / diction and fluency, loved the cute hair do and hair color. The discussion/monologue helped me understand nuances of the choreography better, as well as pick up on certain individual flair that I had not noticed before. Good job! Keep up the awesomeness!

[@itaandi]

I was waiting for this!! You should react to pretty Psycho stage, is their promoted bside, an it also has a choreo (probably selfchoreographed).

[@martinschafer7404]

I had been looking forward to your reaction to this. I love their dancing and I love hearing you talk about it. Everything impresses me but I find I especially love when some of them freeze and others continue. The stop and the perfect stillness. Also all the intricate hand and finger positions while they are going so hard is amazing. I hope you'll consider reacting to Illusion and it's dance practice and the showcase stage for Pretty Psycho. I'm so in love with the choreo for Pretty Psycho as well as loving the song.

[@ccccccchhhhdghvbb]

omg yesss you HAVE to check out billlie's ring x ring i think you'd love it

[@kthwmr]

i always wait for your reactions to purple kiss because not only you give good reactions and points but also, i am able to notice the details as well, as you talk about it and it gives so much sense to me. i recommend that you should watch/react to their Intro: Illusion performance and dance practice, it's so good too and i'd like to hear your thoughts about it. anyway, thank you for reacting to purple kiss. lovelots! ❤️

[@JulieSalvatori]

First thing I noticed is that you have Han quokka and Leebit a.k.a Minsung as SKZOO plushies AND a Seonghwa pic right behind them. Three seconds into the video and I already love your taste.

[@altrock17]

Their vocals are insane

[@5AIKY]

Wait! People have a problem with you saying “musicality”? Seriously? Lol how silly. Musicality is the correct word and it is being used in the right way. Keep being you bestie!

[@altheatoribio4680]

*THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!*

[@WellDressedGypsy]

I love mashup style songs like the iconic I Got A Boy and Max Step. Like O.O by nmixx surprised me but I quite like it a lot. Laughing at the people who thought bang bang was complicated even though I got a boy was released before bang bang

Love purple Kiss

[@finnrogue9435]

musicality ! yesss, they slayed

[@slsalkin]

Love this, you always show me things in the dances that I would never have seen. About the word "ponzoña", Spanish for "poison", the "ñ" letter there sounds different than "n". You know the words señor/señorita/jalapeño, how they have that nnn/yah sound? That's the same sound in ponzoña, pon-zon-ya. Thanks again :)
