this song is just so catchy and the whole album is a masterpiece that really plays with my emotions

[@rimmeinda]

They're blessed

[@rimmeinda]

So are you

[@justinehercthehuman]

Nakka might be the most addicting song in kpop that isn't structured with the commonly done formula.

[@ot7biasedmashups]

I actually can't get over NAKKA! It's super addictive but I can also just listen to it all the time

[@lukekarts]

Seems like most Koreans still can't, too. It's still top 10 (#9) in the charts as we enter December, 5 months since its release.

[@ot7biasedmashups]

@@lukekarts good taste

[@angelrestor419]

Sameee

[@nhiyendang6607]

NAKKA wasn’t something that people were expecting from an AKMUxIU collab but the song really grows on me. I just love their voices together

[@kpopsloth]

another interesting detail to note in the Nakka mv is in the beginning, Chanhyuk falls from a height and lands in the room where people are partying. but when the lyrics and music take a postive turn, with the falling down becoming flying high, Chanhyuk flies up through the floors and sits in that very same party room, meaning what was thought of as rock bottom was actually a new height achieved! and it always amazes me. love AKMU💯❤

[@thaigei3538]

My 2 yr old son absolutely loves this song. He’s a musician already lol

[@pasteldreamss]

i especially love chanhyuk's backing vocals on this!! his singing in next episode was heart wrenching, and tasteful in bench; i just love how he uses his voice to achieve whatever he has in mind as a producer

Yas one of my fave songs from this album! I was stunned too when I saw they're collaborating with IU. They have come so far! If you think about it this can have a double meaning because the siblings were reunited recently after the brother served his military service. So means their bond is unbreakable even if they're physically apart. Man, they're such a beautiful pair of siblings inside out! Thank you guys for reacting to this. Would have been nice to see you all react to Tic Tic Toc too or other songs on this album cause damn fam, it deserves a grammy or 5.

[@duckiechen1321]

i love hey kid close your eyes too. collabing with IU is amazing too but lee sunhee is like whitney houston mariah carrie level of seniority and fame in korea. what a sign of success. not too mwntion lee sunheees clear vocals mix well with akmus

Just when I thought the retro sound has been done toooo much in the kpop industry and then they release this masterpiece.

[@rayrayworldpeace6389]

love seeing that they are so excited about IU is in this song.

[@김기윤-f3h]

곡의 구성이나 화음등에 대해서 이야기를 많이 하시는 것을 보니, 새삼 또 느끼게 됩니다. 찬혁이는 정말 천재야.!!! 슈퍼 지니어스 찬혁.

[@wiggd1125]

이찬혁님이 통기타로 보통 작곡하시던데 통기타로 치는거 보면 코드는 생각보다 단순하더라구요. 물론 그 위에 얹은 멜로디가 말도안되게 미쳤지만.. 편곡자의 힘이 대단한것도 있는것 같아요

[@dovep7384]

​​​@@wiggd1125이찬혁이 편곡에 이름만 안 올렸다뿐이지 깊게 관여한다 함 1집 만들 때 편곡자가 썰풀이 한 것도 있음 애초에 프로듀싱을 본인이 하는데 편곡자한테 곡 맡겨두고 알아서 완성되게 할리가

[@NinaPB]

I’ve been obsessed with this song since it dropped. So glad you guys covered it.

[@ELmayberry]

yesss.. same 🥰

[@voninctrl]

기존에 다른 리뷰 보면 대부분 기술적인 부분만 언급 하던데 이번건 뭔가 음악의 내용이나 의미에 대해서도 이해하려고 하는것 같아 좋네여.

[@beedlethebard1857]

Another great reaction video!! I just love seeing people love AKMU and IU’s music! Hope you guys get to listen to IU’s ‘Ah puh’ and make a video too!

[@purpurr707]

The whole collaboration album from AKMU was so good. Everest was it for me lol. I wonder if they heard B.I's newest albums. They were so good.

i love how they all hyped up and excited when they are told iu's also there ...yes we stan our talented queen

[@小米-o2s]

Thank you. My father left about a week ago, so a reminder of this song is somehow very comforting. “I told you I’d never leave you”

[@nazlcan8174]

Ahhhh I knew you guys would love Nakka a lot, this made me so happy, thank youuu

[@claudettemaria3061]

I was waiting for this!!! Thank you!!! This album is just so well written!

[@einaphetsk]

Akmu is really that genius that everyone loves

[@fotomagrol]

This album of AkMU is phenomenal...love it, I really love the music journey they have given us for all these years. They are a very creative duo...

[@stellasketch2962]

this was literally the best song of the year imo. I guarantee it’s gonna be number 1 on my Spotify wrapped, that’s how addicted I am to it

[@노원-f3k]

I’m crying thank you for reacting this I’ve been waiting for this so long When AKMU auditioned KpopStar and got a huge success, I read an expert’s interview. He said that AKMU’s specific ‘pausing between words or syllables’ style(in lyrics) is very unique and creative and as a Korean speaker, I totally agree with that.

[@dreampinkreel]

I’m so glad you chose to react to NAKKA!! AKMU and IU are very talented artists - dare I say geniuses ? - and it’s great to see you dive into the construction of the song

[@bledsian77]

I want you guys to introduce live version of this song!! Their live version is SOOOOO awesome!!

[@astronautsamuel_xxv2295]

I WAS WAITING FOR THIS!!! THIS IS LITERALLY THE ONLY Kpop REACTION CHANNEL I WATCH, AND I'M SO HAPPY BECAUSE NAKKA IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE RELEASES OF 2021 :DD Thank you ReacttotheK!

[@giginesh]

it makes me so happy seeing them all complimenting the song and them. 'next episode' is one of my favourite albums of the year and nakka is such a great song!

[@jannderru]

Been waiting for this!!! Thank you for your lovely reactions!!!

[@sasasadarkheart]

I was waiting for this since they released the song!! Its so sad that the brother and sister those usually hype about akmu (sory I forgot their names) arent here, but thank you! I’m so glad AKMU still doesnt dissappoint us!

[@Emz1738.]

I literally have been waiting for your guys reaction eversince they dropped their album. Thanks so much.

[@keirancockerill1349]

Omg yes more AKMU!!! this song with IU too is just absolutely incredible!!! Have you guys done eight by iu yet? Should do that if not

[@kea8349]

What we need is a whole album reaction by the whole crew. Us plebs know there’s an absolute genius behind their music but we can’t explain or identify the aspects. I love that the crew can analyse and evaluate the specific aspects with terms and explanations. It’s both validating and educational.

[@sumiwashio1293]

AKMU is my favorite group. To see an underrated group getting so much love makes me very happy.

At this point, I feel like they're so underrated in terms of the strata in KPop. Their musicality and sound are always top notch.

YES I LOVE THIS SONG! IU told Chanhyuk on her KZbin channel that this is a pretty difficult song for her. Their live performance together is so amazing, but also cute because of their casual choreography that makes them laugh.

Akmu are so underrated! 👌🎶

[@vidthreenorth4007]

I just ran across this video again, and I realized that it has been around nine years since IU and Akmu got to know each other. Musically, it was one of the most significant things to occur for Kpop.

[@shane2471]

u know what couldve been another sick representation of the message?,, just chanhyuk n sunhyun facing each other but chanhyuk is tense and sitting on a bed sitting straight up and suhyun is facing him on a chair. and in the end, suhyun just lightly taps his shoulders and he relaxes on the bed and rests. n she approvingly/affectionately nods. coz yeah...yeahh...
