*DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of the songs or videos being reacted to in this video. All credits to the companies that own them.
Also, none of us are PROFESSIONAL musicians. So if you come here for a strict breakdown/analysis of the music, you won’t be getting that. This is strictly my conservatory musician friends taking time in their schedule to watch kpop for fun, and throw in any musical comments that come into their mind! Also please do not complain about any "boring" reactions...some of the musicians have blank faces since they are concentrating so deeply on analyzing the music. On top of that, if you think that they aren't commenting enough on the music, it's because /nothing/ is happening IN the music to comment on. It may be a great song/bop/huge hit that they're listening to, but that does not mean there are actual complicated musical things happening that they'd be able to talk about.

[@mulan7012]

Apink remember and five please 🤗

[@yssaqueen6102]

Please react to 2NE1's Ugly and Go Away. jebaaaal ~

[@yssaqueen6102]

And also to Bigbang's loser and Bang bang bang. Thanks!

[@arianathompson7989]

I agree with Kevin. Apink doesn’t have anything crazy going on in their music but they give such a warm and wholesome feeling that’s just nice. Like not only is NoNoNo a good song but the lyrics are just so nice. Apink is like skipping through an open field it’s refreshing.

[@spress15]

Yeah, I don't think of myself as a fan of Apink, but NoNoNo is a bop! That song and their delivery of it just work. 👏🏼

[@kym5115]

Yess i agree with every word came out from Kevin's mouth today 😂😂

[@anabiyaya]

It’s the reason why i like their song, it gives an innocent vibe....it’s refreshing

[@penghuiing]

Well now we have I’m So Sick and %%

[@daisyandsunflower6945]

APink was always makes me feels warm when I listen to them 😊

[@matchaluvr2]

Damn we Pink Pandas couldn't figure out what Mr. Chu meant for 2 years but Hugo figured it out right after 😪😪

[@getoutnow1858]

"This song is like a pony ride, I'm just havin' a good time" I let out the ugliest laugh because same And to add to this, APink is definitely a girl group you just fall in love with. They take the pure concept and mature it as they grow up and they do it so well.

[@idastaszczuk9523]

I agree! I have a special place in my heart for Apink and it's one of the very few k-pop bands that I'd waste my money to buy a ticket to their concert! :D Plus, there is not a single member that I don't like. Each of them is an interesting young woman :)

[@choiyewonsbangs]

i agree with ALL of this comment djsbhsjshd

[@moonbyulyi4543]

True

[@keikezia11]

Ida Staszczuk Agree!!! all of them 😍

[@jasminekim79]

Kevin, representing all Apink fanboys, “I’m telling ya, this girl group’s got my heart…” True though. Apink never try hard. They stick to what feels authentic and makes them comfortable, but their music and image evolve overtime anyway. They were the trendsetter and made the innocent concept widely popular in Kpop a few years back. True Pandas know that despite their fairly consistent image, all of the girls are capable of so much more. International Kpop fans like to downplay their success and popularity, but it’s undeniable that Apink hold a special place in the Kpop industry. No matter what the haters say, I’m proud of what Apink are doing, because the girls care more about their loyal fans and what they want, than about selling well and competing in the popularity game. Thank you all for reacting to and appreciating Apink!

[@sarah13pink]

Jasmine Kim i could not have said it better! What a beautiful way to sum up why Apink is Apink. Am such a happy panda right now 🐼🎀

[@amyalectolim1746]

Jasmine Kim, your right only us true and loyal panda Apink knows our queen's, we all knows from the beginning how many people look down apink and some Pandas followers leave them, but we loyal panda never gve up but continue supporting apink and love more, the big difference of Apink is they're one priority is there supporters and fans every anniversary they have a surprise song to all there fans, the reason since 2011 iam there loyal supporter and fans.

[@valentine3a]

"They're counting down the days until they execute her." "What the..?" LMAO

[@mehmehkitty6669]

They have been traumatised by other Kpop groups like BTS, BAP & Red Velvet.

[@samoliveralaize]

I think he watched Russian Roulette instead

[@skinnylegend9782]

Vixx got him bad

[@lchow95]

HUGO THAT MR CHU THEORY 😂😂😂

[@thompsonlin2622]

Dude was like "that's a great theory but I think it might be wrong..."

[@melvinhernandez485]

They were sacrificing her for Mr.chuthulhu

[@kristalgic1534]

This isn't Dreamcatcher or VIXX like wtf lol

[@roseroyaltyy]

I'm so glad the reactors like Apink, they deserve all the love!!!

[@sarah13pink]

Ginny i know! I mean i love Apink for Apink, am not a musician so i don't understand complex things even if i hear it...i didnt really expect it to turn out this positive :) am a happy panda now.

[@angel-ke9vs]

I love them their the first kpop group I really enjoyed

[@MiltonLeite10]

yes their songs is awesome its sad that there is a lot o people who refuse hear them just beacause they concept

[@MiltonLeite10]

me too, after SNSD that I met first, they was my second love and that makes me continue in kpop

[@roseroyaltyy]

Milton Leite yeah it’s sad!! Even though I’m now a shawol girl groups actually got me into kpop! Their music makes me so happy, I love my feel-good girly anthems 💕

[@SYEJ92]

i love their reaction of Eunji's high notes, haha

[@iamthecookiemonstr31]

I would love them to hear her singing trot , I love her voice .

[@lazydaisyfelines]

Or one of her performances in King of Masked Singer. Was thinking that would be a fun show for them to react to anyway.

[@sweetymoomoobuddy6753]

What reaction? 😅

[@claudebramwell99]

My reaction to the first time I heard Apink was that somebody in this group has seriously good pipes.

[@ngocthuy5099]

Ikr

[@jasminekim79]

Since Hugo was talking about how he liked their timbre, please have the classical vocalists react to Eunji's solo performances! If they like EXID's Solji, they will appreciate Eunji's unique timbre and vocal techniques too. I recommend her Duet Song Festival and King of Masked Singer stages.

[@clementinec8961]

Jasmine Kim yes her performance of yeon on duet song festival makes me cry everytime I hear it.

[@hanng1242]

1. Best video of "Mr. Chu" is the one featuring Lee Guk-Joo. 2. My favorite APink song is "LUV" Have them react to LUV!

[@alenaregi9085]

LUV and Remember!

[@CeuiHeartily]

LUV & NoNoNo!!!

[@nadiatulathirahrosle6424]

dont forget the wave and miracle too!

[@YoontotheBototheMi]

The wave and luv 😍

[@sharifahnabilah6844]

luv vs only one only one is me favourite song from apink actually✌✌

[@sarah13pink]

I legit waited for this Apink reaction for over a year! Thankyou so much for all the positive feedback...means alot as an Apink fan.

[@clementinec8961]

Eunji is such a good singer. I would like the vocalist to react more to her performances. For example, king of masked singer and duet song festival. Thoses are great performances. And if her solo songs worth listening, plz also react to that.

[@S_P_R_]

I love her performance very much in " King of Mask Singer" & Duet song really it's amazing & she can sing with honey & Husky voice 💕👌🥰

[@kent4302]

Apink has the kind of music that isn't as flashy and fancy as the other songs you reacted to, but somehow sneaks into your heart. Btw there is a second version of mr chu in their album. For a recommendation, "Remember" has some cool modulations.

[@amyalectolim1746]

Apink is #1 kpop girl group in 2nd generation, everytime APINK got a new album you can make sure it's a BOOMM to everybody even there not a fan they love there song, try to listen THE WAVE, MOMENT MY MY, super beautiful song.. WE APINK PANDAS so proud to our Queens...

[@namblossom]

Liked before even seeing the video bc Apink is my fave girlgroup ^^

[@shabrina4893]

Rebecka Same here, yes!

[@reemalmostafa2772]

Rebecka same

[@Setres09]

Lol finally. I've been waiting for this for a long time. I do wish you'd shown songs that actually show Eunji off (she's indisputably one of the best female vocalists in kpop) but I am glad you showed the Apink. Thanks for this!

[@paulafernandez5777]

So glad that they liked Apink, they're such an amazing group. I don't know if you're more familiar with their music but they relased an special album in 2016 called 'Dear' and it has dfferent versions of some of their songs like 'NoNoNo' ballad version and other songs in r&b versions. I highly recommend them, specially 'NoNoNo' their voices are absolutely beautiful, specially Bomi, she has a distinctive voice for singing. I think it could be interesting to hear other opinions on their singing. Since we all know Eunji is amazing too. Im curious about their opinion. Beyond that, thank you so much for your videos. I apreciate it a lot. They're always so informative and interesting to watch!

[@Joanna_]

it's really cute to see them excited as they dissect the song musically! and it's nice to see people react positively to a song/ group I love

[@강석일-q2q]

Amazingly all Apink songs are legendary

[@DarlingC]

Thank you so much for giving Apink so much love ❤ They deserve all the love in the world :'D

[@tenyaan]

I always though that LUV or one of their ballads like Petal or Secret Garden would be more musically interesting than Mr. Chu BUT they had a great reaction to both songs so I'm really really happy cuz I love Apink so much and they suffer with so much discrimination from international kpoppers. I hope they can react to more songs from my talented girls, maybe even Eunji Solo songs ❤

[@eunjioppa4803]

HOLY CRAP AM I DREAMING MY QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[@sarah13pink]

CNBLUE ISN'T A BED SO STOP SLEEPING ON THEM let's cry together pls.

[@TheXDayDreamerx]

I LOVE YOUR NAME SO MUCH

[@신정희-q5j]

It really warms my Panda heart that they liked Apink despite the lack of complexity in both these songs. ☺️ Not a lot appreciate Apink nowadays but they’re the only group where I appreciate and respect the cute concept because they execute it really well and even though they haven’t changed concept since debut, I never get bored of them. I wonder how they’ll react to Remember, Five and Only One. 😊

[@SunnyNadina]

Please have vocalists react to Eunji! Her solos are gold

[@clementinec8961]

SunnyNadina her solo performance stages. Sooo goood.

[@RickHotz]

OMG FINALLY APINK!

[@jmoon7803]

Finally Apink!!!

[@sarah13pink]

jj pnkpanda waited so long 😭 am so happy right now!

[@jmoon7803]

me too!!

[@leylacarbajal2879]

Apink's big hit is LUV!!!

[@apinkhayoungie1121]

Waiting for DumhDurum by Apink reaction, it's their current song after 10 YEARS

[@싸브레-p7v]

Can you guys react to more recent songs of Apink? Their concept has changed a lot and a lot more goes on in their music

[@fraulienmercader1829]

omg like srsly i have been waiting for you guys to actually react to apink cos well they're my favorite group. Thank you so much for actually giving them a chance to be part of your reaction vids. I love how Kevin said "This girl group's got my heart", that was satisfying to hear as a fan of apink. most especially, hugo's theory about the mr.chu mv, twas great. Thank you so much

[@Koolbeans101]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! Apink is life and gets a lot hate for sticking to the “same style” but I would love it if you showed some of their more recent work or Eunji’s solo stuff! But even if you don’t This made my tiny little panda heart happy enough!! Thanks a billion

[@noeliaverduga]

Other great Apink's songs that have a great instrumental are 'Eyes', 'So long', 'The wave' and 'Evergreen'..

[@neko2412neko]

OMG, I never noticed that similarity to SNSD's Kissing You... I feel so dumb now... xP

[@LovePeaceMagicHope]

My girls! It would be amazing if eventually for vocalist react, they could react to Eunji. She's known for being one of the best idol vocalists and she has tons of amazing performances. Personally love her mask king performances.

[@eunjioppa4803]

REACT TO THEIR "ONLY ONE" TOO PLEASEEEEEEEEE

[@valerieng1561]

他自己

[@aljanebacolod42]

I was waiting for this reaction for a long period of time and you guys didn't failed to amaze me about your reactions.. :)

[@michietube]

OMFG YOU DONT UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH I LOVE "I DONT KNOW" BY APINK BLESS UP THANK YOU UMU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK

[@mimikk1713]

Thank you for another great reaction video! I love how Kevin is smiling so happily throughout the video : D

[@hyunjoon.watterson]

Any Pink Pandas? 핑크 밴다? Let's thank Those hard working people for, Finally, posting Apink!! LOve you guys!

[@alwayswithapink3052]

George Ayoub Me ^-^ Thanks guys!!

[@jacqui1690]

IM SO HAPPY THEY FINALLY REACTED TO APINK!! Thank you so much for this^u^ Can you have them react LUV and Remember some time? I'd be great to see them react to those:3

[@60CC60]

I'm so thrilled to see you reacting to apink songs 😭 I rly hope there'll be more reactions in the future for the more recent releases

[@elisabethv8571]

Mannnnn, I totally forgot that 'I Don't Know' was Apink's debut song xD I'm getting old!

[@claudebramwell99]

Had to chuckle at the comments that it reminded them of a high school musical since all but Chorong were still in high school or in middle school (Hayoung) when they debuted. Almost seven years later, they are all still quite young, but the kids call them granny Apink and they are one of the most senior groups.

[@janiellelibrary]

Finally an apink reaction 😍😍 you should do apink vocals videos their vocal individually is amazing ❤️❤️

[@sarah13pink]

Omg pls react to Apink's The wave! It has a very beautiful instrumental with rock influence (i think? )

[@dudu8559]

Thank you for finally doing Apink!!! Please do more!

[@sunhi2175]

I'VE WAITED FOR THIS

[@thedottypotato]

Thank you, Umu!!! ♥

[@innocencesoul]

The best APink Songs are actually their "fan songs". Every year on their debut anniversary they release a song and those are much better than their title tracks. just my opinion though :) I love "good morning baby" and "the wave"

[@SunnyNadina]

Good morning baby is mah jaaamm

[@sarah13pink]

The wave is legendary.

[@afiantis7785]

the wave is really good, love it.. and i want to sneak in 'promise u' to that list :)

[@huhjanus]

they just released Miracle which is emotional and beautiful

[@jasmineandlavender5872]

April 19 and Promise U ❤

[@aileean19]

I’m still hoping for Subin Strawberry/Circle’s Dream Also maybe some Ladies Code Wonderful/Pretty/Galaxy :)

[@aileean19]

But of course I’m really thankful for all the reactions you do, and I’m glad you did a double reaction because recently you’ve done a lot of video where there was only one MV 😊

[@honesttostrangers7687]

Aimy Sunny I second this. Especially ladies code.

[@aileean19]

To be honest any songs on her mini album would be amazing but the only ones who have MV are Strawberry and Circle's Dream so I think they would only be able to react to these :/ Nothing and Flower are also soooo good !

[@rileyboo8615]

And bad girl too :D

[@nula8913]

my girl subin and ladies' code all in one comment? i'm pretty sure i love u

[@ngocthuy5099]

I'm so sick - %% - Dumhdurum. It's their new era and new peak! Btw really love your reaction here!

[@jeanralphio]

hugo's a panda now, woo! i know the schedule's full cus i'm always checking it lol but i think a luv/only one reaction would be sooooo good. these songs had more reactions to the music which is great, but i think they'd appreciate their prowess as a vocal group!

[@karlam7063]

[@pearlmcj]

Ok Kevin low-key blew my mind with that note about the chord progression in I Don’t Know being the same as Kissing You 😮 I always knew it sounded weirdly familiar, and he finally solved the case!!

[@ChocoAbs]

[@marielletrinidad1890]

[@roseph6969]

You should react to Apink's Boom Pow Love and My My. These songs are really good

Hope you have the crew react to Apink's "I'm so sick" cause they really spiced it up!

[@tepuntopunto]

You should check out Apink's little brother group Victon!!!!, they share the same vocal quality/wholesome style but sometimes edgier.

[@inspirit1772]

I haven’t listened to “I Don’t Know” in like forever. I remember when they first debuted and when I was just getting into kpop. ☺️ The nostalgia~

[@LuisitoStaJuana]

Love ypur reactions and professional perspectives on music! I hope you would react also to their new M/V, "I'm so sick" which is more mature and their newest concept. Thankies!
