Classical Musicians React: Big Bang 'Lies' vs 'Haru Haru'

[@billybaekcyrusismyexobias9331]

Haru haru video makes me emo every time

[@thevipblink8571]

Same sis

[@kunchann8844]

I watched this again and literally crying 😭 13 years of love with Big Bang

[@kirtisawant9288]

Every single time...I hope even today that he meets the girl before she dies!! 🤐

[@jennylyn453]

Me too ✊😭😆

[@dohamoujib9675]

Everytime i watch the mv i start cry

[@mehmehkitty6669]

'I really wish I knew Korean'. Yunyi always has the best comments!!

[@sam693691]

Alice Kim :3 : I like her and guy with her. Good comments from them.

[@JodiWong]

when katie was like "i thought the music video was over dramatic" and i'm just like if you think lies is over dramatic idk what you'll think of haru haru's mv 😂

[@smq1468]

Jodi Wong lmaoo

[@Naruto-bp6hm]

lol tbh when I first got into K-pop, I thought the MV to haru haru was overdramatic. many years later I love it lmao

[@StrmgrXL]

It’s prolly cuz she doesn’t realize how much Koreans love melodrama. Well according to My Sassy Girl haha

[@shzzznttt21]

*HARU HARU, ITS BEEN 10 YEARS AND THE FEELS IS STILL THERE.*

[@CatarinaRock]

"Like I wanna dance to this but i'm also really sad"- Most of BIGBANG songs XD

[@hades8831]

"Is because of GD's relationships" - Seungri

[@red_spect3r833]

Haru Haru was a kinda funny era, because of the lyrics and how it looked like G Dragon and TOP sang to each other, a portion of the fandom thought this was supposed to be them coming out lol.

[@minimantaray]

not to project but i feel like neither of them are straight ... even i don't give off half the chaotic gay energy that they do lmao

[@jamesclode5776]

gd has had multiple girlfriends

[@HiHi-pw3gk]

James Clode that doesn't mean he's straight

[@HiHi-pw3gk]

Gd would be the kind to do both so

[@jamesclode5776]

bim bo true but still

[@LexiePersonForever]

i've known haru haru since 2009 and i still cry at the end.

[@Omegalord92]

same its just so good and iconic, what made it super unique still to me was figuring out the story when i first started out in kpop

[@fun-san2520]

JellyfishGroupStan I always have a goosebump listening to Haru Haru :')

[@katakfreak]

The song that introduced me to big bang. Best big bang song for me.

[@SocialistSadako]

same

[@KT-qp7wx]

Hands down, the KINGS OF KPOP. Others may beg to disagree but as a KPOP fan for so long and one who has seen so many groups from the first generation until today... BIGBANG is the group that changed the game for KPOP in my opinion. And there's no one like them. They're not afraid to push the envelope, to challenge the norm and be different. They are trendsetters and icons wherein each member is so distinct. This list about these Kings can go on and on especially with their numerous massive achievements not only in South Korea but all over the world. They are loved by people of all ages - from kids to senior citizens. And even if they are currently on a long hiatus... they're definitely going to come back BIGGER and BETTER. These five men have changed how typical KPOP is and for that, they have gone down in history. And YAAAAAAS Yunyi, you represent all of us VIPs!!!! LOL.

[@starrynightfall00]

100% Agree!!! VIP forever

[@muhamadali1509]

BIGBANG4EVER

[@ChrisK-gl8fq]

True

[@padhiltazali]

Not Kings but shit. Should call the group Big Criminals

[@sengjvipforever.744]

Padhil Tazali u are criminal yourself dude

[@lolapennyburg2966]

BigBang are legends! They started so many things like light sticks, self producing idols, mini albums, etc.! God, they’re so amazing!

[@meriemyassamineziani6610]

trendsetters indeed

[@Ozzlord666]

The lightstick and mini álbum stared with them?

[@elydarahmayanti2965]

Soy Batman yes

[@tergelss]

Soy Batman Mini album thing is controversial but lightstick definitely yes and their group formation is what a lot of Kpop groups copied after them.

[@_fallen1004]

don’t forget the dyeing of their hair

[@bibidibabidiboo]

Honestly, people think BB's old songs are the best, but it's their ALIVE album that has their best songs.

[@ivoryrose2074]

SexyPornStar Totally agree 👍

[@Dessylyly]

Are we really gun fight here? MADE is superior 😩😂

[@pa-pa-zan3739]

MADE for me, bae bae was the most unique out of all

[@senku4949]

Personally, both the ALIVE and the MADE album are their best albums.

[@missKchannel]

SexyPornStar I love the GD work since BB debut but I agree.. thats the album I got from BB.(and Tonight is exceptional too)

[@beinzbrinaz]

Yunyi's reactions are so on point and a perfect blend of a typical kpop reactor and a classical musician perspective; she has a deeper understanding of the genre and asian/ korean culture, which is why her commentary is refreshing. her take on Lies is exactly how I feel about the song especially in regards of its melody/ nostalgic feel and how different it is to kpop now; she totally gets it... everyone else kind of lack substance in their reaction, no matter how much music theory they throw at me that 5:00-6:00 of yunyi's explanation was perfect; season 2 lacks yunyi's voice

[@pmalagon]

Vincent Brinas thissss exactly. That’s why she’s my favourite

[@chinlee0711]

I agree. About Yunyi and about the lack of substance in other reactors. My fav from Yunyi here is what she said about BB's popularity is their member's individuality. I personally think that the blend of so many timbres of voice and letting them all shine in a song is difficult, but GD somehow made it happen. Yunyi's explanations are also very simple and straight to the point as well. Even if someone isn't all knowledgeable about music theory.

[@beinzbrinaz]

Cathy Lee yeah she doesn’t approach the music as an outsider; she actively listens to kpop so it’s more developed (Kevin too). It also sounds like everyone has reactor fatigue, like initially they were foreign to kpop so everything was surprising which made their reactions viral and candid but now they pretty much understand the general style and nuances of kpop, so it’s hard to find songs to react to without sounding repetitive; everytime yunyi comes up I’m excited to hear what she has to say. She’s that inviting

[@ultskimkim6526]

Vincent Brinas that’s why she’s my favorite ❤️

[@K_H_P_]

I kinda feel that since Yunyi left Kevin carried many of the videos on his own. After Yunyi and Kevin, my favorite reactor is Umu, so it kinda sucks that she doesn't appear in these videos. At least she has her own reviews though.

[@blackpinkeslarevolucion4526]

I think the arrangement of these songs that BIGBANG plays on concerts deserves a review to see how much BIGBANG has grown and improved through the years.

[@KT-qp7wx]

YG Silver Kings True!

[@lchow95]

Loving how you edited in Yunyi 😂❤

[@cnthlpbtwtch]

This was almost 12 years ago Girl!!!! It's a classic! Don't expect songs to have those crazy drops..

[@elizbeth8918]

omg I had started to get used to videos without Yunyi. I forgot how much I missed Yunyi ;-; happy to see her in a reaction video again!

[@elizbeth8918]

jimin's ass is hella thicc I'm not 100% sure about the details. But I believe Yunyi graduated from uni so she can no longer come in to react like she used to.

[@mrcrs1238]

SAMEEEEEE

[@putrisavitri9159]

Is anybody relize in here yunyi looks like seunghoon from winner😁😁

[@hazirahizzati1989]

+Putri Savitri HAHAHHAHAHA omg i just realize

[@needmeachillplaylistforstu3495]

ya he graduated already

[@sahikun]

LET'S NOT FALL IN LOVE NEXT HE HE HE

[@TatianitaPacheco]

LISA OWNS MY WIG YAS VS. SOBER!!

[@ahlam9822]

YES

[@DedexxxArthur]

LISA OWNS MY WIG and zutter

[@adp1486]

yeaaahhh!!! please! also If you & GD's That XX

[@kellynguyen353]

Big Bang still going strong 💪

[@billybaekcyrusismyexobias9331]

I have been waiting for this for so long

[@dt4350]

10:48 YUNYI IS SO RELATABLE LMAO

[@marlencinu11]

man that is the reason i'm trying to learn to sing along but is so hard hahahah i laugh when she said that because that is how i feel

[@MuzmuzM]

OMG yunyi is soooooooooo cute XD

[@conservativeminds175]

can you guys react to sohyang??^^

[@HanieJ]

She's our current spirit animal! hahaha

[@LieTown1996]

it's actually easier to sing than most of their songs lol

[@mehmehkitty6669]

What a throwback!!! Big Bang - Haru Haru was one of the first Kpop songs my father introduced me to.

[@caelanca]

Your father is the man!

[@shejemon]

Your father is cool.

[@Alinmaz]

woww your Father must be daebak

[@pamp.5590]

I think a lot of us consider it our "anthem" bc it's what got a lot of international fans into Big Bang and Kpop in general. Between DBSK, Big Bang, SS501, Super Junior, etc, those years were integral to the Korean wave. p.s. I feel like in order to really understand why Big Bang is as big as they are today, you'll need to watch their live performances. In my opinion, their stage presence is unrivaled.

[@michaeltang9393]

Completely understandable the stuff everyone was saying about both the songs, just disappointing cause I loved those songs and are probably some of the most important songs from my middle school/childhood days. I still sing along cause I know every word without even knowing any Korean. Literally 2 of the most important songs in Kpop history.

[@user17284]

I like the old bigbang songs😭😭

[@minhlei]

Sapphire Mango I still really love their current music too

[@mrsstyles1324]

Sapphire Mango if you think it twice now sadly all their songs are old 😢 but VIPs are forever and even if you sing Lies or haru haru it feels like the first time. Happily married to GD

[@rainedrops29]

"Everyone has a distinct voice. Like you know who's singing." Yup that's BIGBANG indeed 👌

[@곰쓸]

I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO EXCITED #LEGENDSOFKPOP

[@valentinakpop]

곰쓸 I never clicked so fast on a video before - 😍😍😍👑

[@ks_youtube]

12:27 yunyi: that was the first moment i fell in love with taeyang for the rest of my life so relatable TT

[@anisalusyanadewi8639]

you must react Haru haru concert version. that was so lit

[@KSS352]

I agree! Also, they could see how the song has progressed along with Big Bang!

[@rosies2248]

Especially when VIPs sing along with BB... Hearing it live, how it resonates throughout the concert venue. Truly amazing wow

[@oppastrash9998]

the one with x concert 💕

[@ilovekpop39]

Every time they --- we sing this at the concerts I'd choked up

[@musicaddict158]

I think sketchbook performance is good too but yes! I agree with you.

[@elynneevangelista4]

You'd say Lies is repetitive and kinda boring musically... But if you watch a BigBang concert and they sing this, BISH YOU'D SING TO EVERY SINGLE WORD OF IT! With matching choreo 😂

[@SilenMonser]

It's okay. Gotta remember that it's being judged by today's standards which are completely different from then. Nostalgic, but not trendy today, especially due to gd's influence in kpop styles

[@HotCrossJuns]

One thing to keep in mind is that these are classically trained musicians. In classical music, everything from rhythm to key signature, to tempo, changes constantly. Therefore, pop music that does none of those things would be considered musically boring. However, that does not make them bad or boring. Songs can be hype af and still "musically boring" (examples include Crazy by 4Minute, Growl by EXO, most BTS songs, etc.)

[@stepxrv9656]

With matching choreo😂

[@KrisJavier]

Yunyi is such a VIP. Yassss

[@KnockinOnHeavensGate]

I just really miss the old Big Bang songs, not that the newer ones are bad or anything, they are all great, but the older songs had a simplicity to them that is hardly possible in today's Kpop. They might not be as "musically interesting" as recent releases, but I actually think that having a clear piano sound is so refreshing when nowadays the songs are all heavily produced and electronic sounding. And I love Yunyi's insight into Kpop, as a long time Kpop fan I'm always a bit hurt when older songs are just put off as "the typical sound from the 2000s". I know that the reactors have a completely different approach as they actually study music theory and know what's musically complex and stuff, but just as a common listener, I'm totally fine with just having a simple tune and melody and letting the singer's voices do the rest.

[@melafeli]

MORE YG ARTIST PLEASEEE

[@truclinh2572]

Ardito Mulyono Your avatar 😂😂😂

[@rimmeinda]

Ardito Mulyono yaaaz. Winner and iKON, epik high, a looot.

[@xpprss7589]

iKON please 🙏🙏🙏

[@waimariemclean2759]

To the girl (sorry I forgot her name) that wanted to ride in a shopping cart but thinks she'll be judged, I work in a supermarket and although it's not encouraged coz of safety reasons, I say GO FOR IT! The other day a teenage girl was riding in the cart while her dad pushed it around and when he saw me spot them, he says to her, "Oh look, now the lady's gonna yell at you and tell you to get out" and I just laughed, like, "Nah, girl you're fine. I do the same after the store closes" 😂👏

[@keygurumi]

Yunyi is me

[@keygurumi]

except for haru haru.. ksjdks i like lies so much more

[@FLORENCIAMCR]

me is Yunyi

[@Rj-fv8uc]

BigBang started the self-producing in Kpop industry. Really a trendsetter!!!! TRUE LEGENDS!!!

[@chiirox]

I also love how u can always tell who's who. With other groups, sometimes like one stands out and the rest sound super similar. But with big bang, they all have their own distinct sounds TwT

[@naa647]

chiirox I agree

[@ms.3537]

They need some BANG BANG BANG in their lives

[@ms.3537]

And GDs songs

[@pawsies.]

Agree!

[@gayman6032]

YES I LOVE BIGBANG THEY'RE MY ULTIMATE BIAS GROUP

[@noeivip5536]

Gay Man me too❤

[@tarinaiqlima8106]

next, please react to this big bang hits: 1. bae bae vs lets not fall in love 2. loser vs blue thank u n love u umuuu...

[@valentine3a]

yasss educate them in some 2nd gen kpop lol xD

[@YasMean]

As a long time VIP this just brought all kinds of joy to my morning omg 💖💖💖 the moment Bigbang broke out and became big, everything in the industry changed including the sound. And every time we see a huge shift in style, Bigbang is at the forefront of that change. I really appreciate you doing the classics it totally made my day.

[@LarissaSantos-gn4jr]

"boom boom boom so sad boom boom boom" LMAOOOO

[@SilenMonser]

For those that didn't get the first mv, she's being haunted by her guilt because she let him take the fall for her actions, thus she sees them everywhere she goes.

[@milagrosmalpartida2127]

* takes a lot air... and scream * yunyi is baaacccckkkkkkkkk!!!!!! omg! I miss her!!! I mean: "I really wish I knew Korean so I could sing along the lyrics instead all this bullshit"? xD I died!!!

[@cnthlpbtwtch]

Compare the original songs to how they arrange these songs in their 2014-2017 live concerts. Haru-haru Japan concert live version 2014 was epic.

[@redlady4]

Oh wow, OG BigBang fan. I was literally listening to Bad Boy when I got the notification. Haru Haru is that kpop song for me. They were my first kpop group. But Haru Haru hit me where it hurt and I cry every time.

[@appleraika]

Im not a VIP but BIG BANG IS THE BEST AND STILL THE BEST KPOP GROUP EVER. I have mad respect for their music.

[@purpurr707]

Ermagad we need more YG. Winner and iKon ¬ ~¬ both groups have creative input into their songs and i wonder how they fare musically /o/.

[@maddiemiran2990]

BigBang is so iconic and their career is so long that it really is amazing to see their style change through the years, but still come out with amazing music every time.

[@crizzyville114]

My favorite faces! Yunyi + Gwen + Hugo! What a surprise! And what a throwback indeed for choosing all-time fave BB songs! That entire cut of Yunyi fangirling over Haru Haru is my favorite so relatable... Hahaha I missed you rambling over Kpop dear! Thanks Umu for the awesome idea! Despite the tragicness of this day's choice of songs, have a happy valentine everyone!

[@MidnightEkaki]

Im triggered I really like repetative songs sometimes if they're done well, it gives it energy. Sometimes changing it up too much can be disjointing

[@youknowwho3351]

KING OF KPOP

[@aftr1994]

I really hope they react to WINNER

[@yazminfahmi4108]

I think it would be interesting if you can react to bigbang"s musical progression from their early days to what they sound like today. I always feel that bigbang is very experimental in their music and try to bring something new everytime.

[@DisneyBar]

In this kind of reactions to old classic kpop I wish you had shown them the newest live ver of this song to see howbit aged over the years... I really want to show them Big Bang live right now

[@singerrock1213]

I love when you're so early that it says "No views"

[@Lo-me2hd]

Soooo, next is Loser vs Let's not fall in love?

[@jk_im4782]

OMG YAAASSSS these were the first kpop songs that I ever listened too 😘

[@jell1595]

BIGBANG=LEGENDS

[@jellybaebi]

maaaaad throwback feels, bless you guys for reacting to this also i realised we'd have a very different yunyi if she discovered kpop back in 2007/2008

[@ReyhanASL]

For all who didn't know : the girl who whispered hello on the phone on the first of lies is gummy. She said it herself .

[@kdavelino93]

I'm begging for you to react on DEAN!!! Please!!!

[@kitsunes]

Keren Danielle Avelino next episode is reacting to him 🙊

[@kdavelino93]

Kialle Really!!! Finally!!! I am so happy!!! 😍😍😍

[@ginmi9993]

Dean and Suran

[@MiyusRibbons]

Its Heize and Dean actually

[@kdavelino93]

Thank you for the response, i didn't watch the last part. Coz I've been requesting this for ages. Xoxo

[@thecarlitz3920]

I love this channel. It gives me satisfaction when it comes to Musical Technicalities and terminologies. They're giving their honest opinions and understanding about the MV that they are watching. Newly subscribed. Thanks for this!

[@renan3252]

react to winner pls!!! really really vs fool

[@khangphan3671]

i think they will not react to any winner songs

[@livemellifluously]

why?

[@khangphan3671]

all winner title tracks are on the "will not react list" sadly

[@renan3252]

Kevin Phan ogm i didn't know about this list, i am seeing this now and the only thing i can say is WHY

[@agungdiah8000]

Up

[@amys6987]

At some point you guys should react to haru haru live. It is really powerful with the live band

[@3k0wahyu42]

Please react to ikon songs,, Love scenario Apology Bling Bling Airplane

[@ramtinghassemi95]

Been waiting for this reaction for so long! thank you for making this!

[@marz22]

Feel so happy whenever legends are featured. Now I cannot wait for TVXQ5 reactions.

[@starrybook4386]

woahh this gave me flashbacks! thank you for the reaction and thank you Yunyi for being the instigator lol VAV's mv for Gorgeous has finally been released!! I hope you can check it out and give the song a listen ^^

[@fruibs]

10:06 "BOOM BOOM BOOM so sad BOOM BOOM BOOM so sad" HAAHHAA

[@jusamaerodrin6385]

Waiting for this for years!!! I really appreciate your reactions. It's so genuine.

[@elizbeth8918]

ahhh i've been waiting for this!~

[@o-o1193]

omg.... nostalgic.... guys damnn... Its been a long time since I stopped following Bigbang but this.... guys it is gold.... I remember crying everytime I watch haru2 and I would make theories in my head about how they could be together ( I was 8 grade back then) ..... It really was the anthem back then..... and when them perform lies in live shows the song is amazing. Sooo thankyou sooo much guys for this reaction becuz I had totally forgotten about it.. it brings back soo many memories.... I dont blame you for not liking it because its 8-9 years ago but it was the thing which made me fall into the" kpop hole".... so thankyou (p.s seeing taeyang here I cant believe he got married already... time sure flies)

[@_marimopeace]

AHHHHHHH first of all I'm happy bc I've waited for this reaction to happen forever but also YUNYI HAS RETURNED (albeit momentarily and through video but pshaw) 😊😊

[@simplepurple22032001]

BIGBANG will forever be in the god tier in the KPOP industry, I love them with all my heart

[@HMHMHMHMHM24]

it would be super cool to see them react to the live performances!

[@Ravenstar2296]

nooooOOoooooo I see the perks of summarizing a video beforehand but I think it takes away from any element of surprise or intrigue from the music video itself (which i know isn't vital to a musical analysis but serves as interesting reaction material if regardless). i think a summary after the mv is shown would be beneficial for understanding rather than before

[@ladydotele]

YUNYIIIIIII

[@may.k_me]

Sometimes i wish the Reactors would actually LISTEN to the songs. There are so many moments when u guys just talk over the best parts. And you're always complaining abt how songs aren't dynamic enough~ Music to me nowadays, esp American music, doesn't sound dynamic enough to me

[@mery6960]

You right.

[@pmalagon]

Yessss Bigbang finally!!! I feel like I’ve been waiting for this forever. Thank you for reacting to the kings. More BIGBANG songs, or GD solo stuff, TOP’s Doom dada 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@tetrulz]

BigBang are the trail blazers of kpop. They are legends.. Give them respect whether you like kpop or not.

[@johnkhylefuentes1120]

Yunyiii 😭

[@emjaysais]

You guys just made my vip heart so happy! I really love it when people appreciate bigbang's music and how they started creating wonderful music

[@wanderer3570]

Bigbang Kings 😍😭👑👑👑👑

[@King_Jonghyun]

YUNYI REPRESENTING EVERY SINGLE KPOP FAN IN THIS VIDEO. I'M DEAD. LOVE BIG BANG 😩😩😩

[@roxieyzquierdo2688]

You should react to old school TVXQ like Bolero, Love in the Ice, or doshite. Their singing was the best that ever existed

[@TheNaveOfCharlemagne]

Roxie Correa YES! TVXQ's epic vocal performances. I'd love to see that reaction.

[@samimarce]

Yeah love in the ice, bolero and tonight. They are the kings of vocals

[@yamanakabish]

BIGBANG? Not experimental? That's a first. YG artists always start the trends.

[@zsantiago3643]

MindWalker They are comparing songs made 10 years ago with those produced today.

[@lexc4680]

I mean these 2 legendary songs are from 2007-2008 then they will compare it to songs nowadays :3 they've always been experimental

[@chandman89]

Bigbang is like first, watch second

[@Dessylyly]

OMG thank you for this! I hope you’d do songs from MADE like Loser and Bae Bae together? (Also, you setting the background first before playing the MVs is very nice!)

[@solarianess]

Hugo with the phone omg haha Also I would literally die if you reacted to MASC. I would be eternally grateful.

[@kx4678]

I recommend that you make them react to BIGBANG's live performance of Haru Haru and Tell Me Goodbye during their BB Japan X Dome Tour (2014-2015). The x dome tour performance of haru haru and tell me goodbye were so perfect and never fails to leave me at awe. It would totally blow the reactors' minds cos BIGBANG never fails at being great ya know 👑👑💖💖💖

[@3k0wahyu42]

Pleasee react to IKON,,,

[@kalyn319]

Omg, Rockstar would be awesome

[@cuteandcrazyme]

[@Lemonadeez_]

I'M WAITING SIX MONTHS FOR THIS. THEY NEED TO REACT MORE TO BIGBANG

[@daeroseqween2631]

God i remembered 12 year old me crying to haru haru. The live versions are the best

[@__Zry__]

It was released when i was in high school and all the feels came back. It feels nostalgic to listen to those songs.

[@KariinSama]

No way!! Just yesterday I was thinking "I hope the'll react to BB "Lies" "... I guess I'm a real deal prophet :D TNX :*

[@lucasdutra67]

In the description you can see the reaction schedule

[@KariinSama]

Thank you. I'm aware of this. :) I just like to be surprised and I don't check them. I don't like waiting for the rects that i want to watch in the future so I'd rather to not know and just see what the channel will bring me :)

[@ashleyjuarez8259]

I LOVE BIGBANG SO MUCH AND WAS SINGING ALONG ALL THE WAY!!!! Thank you sooo much for reacting to this!!!! I love ya!!!!!

[@woodsy9018]
