Those fans are just salty and don’t even listen to their discography but it somehow became cool on twitter to hate on nctzens and NCT and that’s why they do it cause they’re sad little beings that need clout

[@alxstyy]

Im not gonna lie, I usually have a hard time with many kpop songs for what many would say “too much is going on”. NCT isn’t the only ones. The reason why for me is because I love when a song is just homogeneous throughout, HOWEVER, I think when “noise” is done right it works. For NCT it works. Like sometimes I have a hard time getting into their music, but when I keep listening I just discover more beauty in the song. I should be more specific NCT127. They do much more crazy energy music. I’m more of a NCTU girl, more chill and homogeneous for me. I hope that makes sense

[@sunglasshae]

i think the highlight of kick it is the many things happening in a span of three-plus minutes. to some it gets repetitive or overwhelming at times, but there's always a certain part that would keep you listening. and with all the changes, it keeps the same vibe and doesn't morphe into something else. the build-up from the bridge to the dance break was honestly the best part, the way they change the beat in a matter of seconds. i find kick it thoroughly enjoyable.

[@sosobann]

[@mantrar4116]

After hearing Kevin's commentary I realized for the first time how the "Bruce Lee" kinda repetitive and less original and his comments also gave me a new perspective so thank you for the video! I still really absolutely love the song but all the commentary was very insightful :)

[@Ariel_green]

I actually disagree. They only said Bruce Lee 6 times if am not mistaken and that isn’t near enough times to be annoying or repetitive especially given the amount of repetitiveness we get from pop songs nowadays with catch phrases “na” or “eh” or “la”, stuff like that.

[@mantrar4116]

@@Ariel_green I totally understand what you're saying! I never even thought of it as annoying whenever I listened to it but his commentary just made me think of how they could have referenced Bruce Lee more indirectly. Just wanted to clarity and I hope that makes sense

[@lisab301]

I have to admit that I didn't like this song at first, I find the "Bruce Lee" quite cringey. I totally agree with Kevins commentary, the R&B pulled me back in after I listened to it a few times but when I first heard it it just sounded messy and confusing. I find that with a lot of NCT 127's music it takes me a few listens before I can vibe with it. I almost always end up liking it but is take me a bit to get on board with it.

i like everything about this song except the chorus. shouted choruses are not my thing and the instrumental reminded of a blender turned on. the pre chorus and the bridge are perfect tho. nct is known for their rappers, but their vocalists are what made me stay. the mv, the styling and the choreo are really good and the song brought them a lot of recognition and new fans(myself included), so i'm happy with how successful this comeback was, even though this song wasn't my cup of tea(cuz of the chorus). it really made me interested in their(and the other subunits) music and i loved what i have found. their b-sides are amazing, specially the r&b driven ones and the ballads, which just proves how versatile and rich their sound and discography are.

That added vocals during the 2nd chorus (right around 03:05 in the video and is pointed out at 04:09) is my FAVORITE pet. It makes the song for me- that little nahanaha harmonies in the background elevated the song from fun to fantastic

Omg finally I love this song

NCT have come together and everything they did separately was multiplied. Make A Wish, 90s Love, From Home. NCT2020 is a pretty awesome album.

One thing i somehow haven't paid until now is how great the editing in these videos is. Props to the editor whoever they are

Never clicked so fast!!! Love these reactors and love this song so much! Thank you for another great reaction. Am I the only one that likes NCT 127 experimental songs on the first listen? I always see people say that it takes them a few listens to actually like one of their songs which I totally get, but for some reason I'm the opposite. I remember so many people not liking Simon Says when it came out, but first time I heard it and Kick It I knew within the 20 sec that they were going to be my fav title tracks so far, but when Touch and Highway To Heaven came out they weren't my favorite and took a few listens to grow on me overtime. Maybe I just have strange music tastes, but NCT became one of my top two groups because of how different/experimental and unique their sound is. I'm usually not a big fan of mainstream music so finding kpop a few years back was like hitting the jackpot because it was so different and I loved it. I have noticed more western mainstream influences or similarities in some of the newer kpop songs which I get because they are trying to draw that audience in, but I hope it doesn't all change (no offense to anyone's music tastes, just my personal preference). And I really hope NCT 127 never changes because their music is what sets them apart and makes them unique even if they aren't as popular for it. #BetterDaysWithTaeyong #GetWellSoonTaeyong

I became nctzen march 2020 and I'm glad coz I survived 2020 by listening to their songs and watching their videos they make the best songs out there

[@salankritagogoi7212]

The first time I listened to Kick It when it was just released, me and my classmates reacted the same as Kevin. Why are they saying Bruce Lee so many times!? Why is it like constantly changing? So much is going on ! And then the next week I had to return home becuz of corona and heard the song several times and now it grew so much on me that I forgot why I found it weird. Kevin's words reminded me lol

[@yundorphin]

Love the appreciation for Taeyong's rap flow~

[@mocha.toffee]

React to more NCT please😀 2020 is NCT's year actually

[@annanobody95]

THIS IS THE BEST NEW YEAR GIFT!! Thank you so much guys for this 🥺🥺🥺🥺

[@kiyaradunuwille6866]

Rafael's reaction to Jaehyun in 3:05 and 4:31is honestly such a big fat mood

[@lolaloli9362]

Kick It, despite not being a chart topper song but it is still one of the most memorable and popular KPOP song this year. The catchy choreography with an addicting chorus, Kick It/Neo Zone's era became a breakthrough for not only NCT127 but also for a whole NCT's brand

[@hwarang4ever365]

*3 seconds into the actual reaction *EXPEDIA ad pops up* WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU DOING TO ME KZbin?!?! Let me watch my quality entertainment in peace!
