*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" 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.

[@annajones8941]

You have to read the lyrics while listening to the song because the song is actually sad, BUT she's leaving him behind in a happier note and telling him to forget her and live his life happily. Something beautiful but short, like fireworks

[@patchisidro9071]

personally, i think gain is one of the best soloist in kpop. her concepts are very intricately thought. i love my feminist icon. and the sexiness she extrudes is so natural i love her i hope she gets better and comes back as a soloist and with brown eyed girls.

[@ys3929]

definitely not the best, but gain and her concepts are great

[@miki2849]

wintermelon 96 "personally, I think [...]" she's the best in their opinion

[@patchisidro9071]

nomoredickpics i also said one of the best not The best 🤔

[@patchisidro9071]

Eliza Cosmos omg i totally see that i can see her releasing flower and him with bloom

[@ytgirl2590]

Bloom vs Paradise Lost. She has a different vibe. She's unique and cool.

[@andre-cmyk]

I love how they made the big happy sound to represent how Gain sees life as a happy movie that's ending, and I like to imagine the C minor at the end shows the little sting that's the mourning, like the end. It's nihilistic, but optimistic. she 👏 did 👏 that edit: [tw] I just got the news that my teacher died earlier today, I have no idea how this coincidence happened.

[@CarrotMissile]

Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry for what happened to your teacher! How are things going for you? :'(

[@andre-cmyk]

Don't be too sorry. Anyways, mostly I'm just shocked. It mostly just hasn't sink in completely that we won't see her anymore. Thatnks for asking.

[@user-uy5hn9ct9l]

Can you please react to gain’s paradise lost, too? :’)

[@PerlaGutierrezshinpg]

최지윤 Omg yes. Paradise lost vs. Fxxk u

[@chasingjess9379]

Yeaas!

[@MRxBlackxRave]

최지윤 I really hope they do, paradise lost is one of my favourite songs

[@ReyhanASL]

Maybe Fxxk u too?

[@Stabitty]

I had my hopes up when I got notification bout this video only from reading "Gain" then I saw a full title. And realised that its not paradise lost... :(

[@deehirota]

*UNDERRATED SONG, UNDERRATED ALBUM DX THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BRINGING IT TO ATTENTION*

[@deehirota]

I'm assuming 'Paradise Lost' will be coming soon then ? However, 'Fxxk U' is also amazing~ :'))

[@moomoo8909]

Its sad that so many KPop fans don't know about BEG(nohate;)) I hope they are going to have a comeback soon

[@andre-cmyk]

Right? They have been releasing great bops with so much loaded meaning in videos and music. Cleansing cream, Fxxk U, Sixth Sense, Abracadabra, all are g r e a t.

[@elijaharevalo7337]

Ikr

[@MaggiFre99]

So true!

[@EvelynAguilar235kaisoo]

Narsha is joining the second season of invincible youth so maybe they're planning to comeback soon and she's doing the show for publicity

[@moomoo8909]

Evelyn Aguilar really?!😍😍 is it a variety show or a drama?

[@ActuallyAnanya]

Bloom and Paradise Lost are must-watches, and I think they'd be very good songs to use to show Ga In's range both in terms of sound and concept. I hope you show them those at some point!

[@aleumi2040]

자신의 장례식을 카니발이라고 칭하고 자기가 사랑했던,사랑받던 사람들에게 이제 자신은 떠난다고 마지막으로 인사를 합니닷 노년와 청년을 겹치는건 지기가 사랑한 이가 그만큼 오래 살아주었다는 거죠~! >슬픈 일을 밝은 템포로 숨긴거예욧☆

[@sirozero1029]

누가 이거 자막좀 달아주라...

[@user-gl4df8sj7r]

자막달려쑴

[@junedeli9ht]

This song is related to another music video of her, where she died because of war after she gave everything she could. This song is depicting her coming back as a soul to his boyfriend and telling him to not be sad and celebrate her passing like a carnival.

[@dannielleangelic]

Gain has always presented a cohesive blend of musical and visual concepts, even when it was with Brown Eyed Girls. The best part about her is that while her concepts have changed over the years, she has always managed to be consistently HER. Even when the the music is different, it never sounds unnatural or disingenuous to the profile she has created. I’ve always found the reactions of trained musicians interesting, because of how their ears can pick apart the music. However, I love what you guys do even more, because you show how musicians that specialize in different fields focus on the music differently. Much like I can distinguish the color in my art, they see the multitude of hues and shades of color in music.

[@stardust-tt6mk]

Good reactions! Gain always bring divided opinions and it's great that an artists can do that because she make people think and dig in her music so they can build an opinion. It's awesome!!!! Also she is one of the soloist that don't stay in one concept or genre. I love her.

[@biancadelriver2467]

I suggest if you will react again to Gain - I request it to be Paradise Lost & Bloom :')

[@mistertadakichi]

bianca del river YES. So much this

[@lilacalosa]

mistertadakichi YESSSS

[@ferlizano]

Bloom is beautiful!!

[@pierrixxxful]

YASSSS, THOSE ONES ARE MY FAVS

[@SHINeekekeke]

Bloom omg xD

[@toni2004560]

I am always teary-eyed about this concept. GAIN portrays a woman who, at the end of her life, was just so happy to be in it. I want to think that she wishes to tell her now widower that in her death, his obligation to her has also ended and to go live his life now. To go on without her, forget her even. 😢😢😢

[@MiSSthemem0ries]

I only discovered this channel when they uploaded the SNSD video and since then I’ve been totally digging the videos. I binge watched a bunch of videos. I really enjoy the musical comments and their reactions. Now I watch MVs and think about how ReacttotheK would react and things they’d say. Thank you for introducing me to lovely artists and really promoting some underrated artists like Gain, Ailee and AKMU. You guys bring a different perspective and it makes me think deeper into the music and that’s what makes me appreciate you guys even more. Can’t wait for new videos everyday. Thank you guys and keep up the fantastic work!

[@starrybook4386]

*THANK YOU FOR REACTING TO GAIN* omg can't wait for the upcoming BEG vid!! I've been requesting BEG/Gain since last year (': and hopefully you guys will react to more of Gain's stuff in the future too, she has great concepts!

[@sherylyaseen6719]

a MeU and an EVERLASTING? You, my friend, are a true intellectual TT-TT

[@chuuberry5778]

I would love to see a reaction of Fxxk U vs Paradise Lost~

[@user-to5nv1fk9h]

자막이 달리면 또 올 영상....

[@user-gl4df8sj7r]

자막달려쑴

[@blackjack-cu9dx]

GaIn is so perfect to react to because every comeback of hers have a completely diffeent concept and style! She is definately one of my favorite artists!

[@markusl.4290]

2020 and still not over this song. If they watched it again with the translation, it matches so well with the music and it becomes so much sadder.

[@Dancing_inMoonlight]

aaaa. my favorite!!!!!!!!! I do hope that you guys will react to her other songs. Thank you ^^

[@moomoo8909]

dita _d oh yesssss Paradise Lost please🙈🙈

[@moonxhyuna]

Yes, I've been waiting for this! I'm really excited to see everyone's reactions to Brown Eyed Girls as well. Also I love Gain, she's amazing, and while she's not as technically skilled in vocals as some people in the business, she's got a very different vocal color and know how to use her voice really well. One of the reasons why I love her so much. ^^

[@user-ke6en7qu9d]

In the Six Sense music video, Gain died, and the music video created an overly bright atmosphere at the funeral hall, delivering the message to Gain's lover, "I lived a happy and beautiful life, so please don't be too sad." However, an old man and a young man intersect in the video, which means that Gain's lover heard too late about Gain's death.

[@_jinny9825]

GAIN?? It's really surprising to see her name in this channel. Always pleasing to you guys reactions lol. Plz react to GAIN's song such as 'Paradise lost','Bloom','Apple' or '돌이킬 수 없는'. These songs are really good and have interesting muscial sounds too :)

[@manimagica]

I LOVE this song too much. Love the fact that it's like an ending song in a movie that is freaking sad but beautiful :')

[@baoasamiya2002]

I LOVED ALL THE DIFFERENT OPINIONS!! that's why is my favourite reaction channel

[@gain_gangni]

죽음이라서 슬플줄알았나본데 나의죽음으로 슬퍼하지 말라고 밝게만든노래임

[@jamesrawlins735]

I'm so glad to see you include Carnival - Gain worked doing backing vocals for IU's Modern Times album and it definitely impacted her - I'm sure she wanted to do this style of music ever since 2013.

[@gracielaivonne7589]

Yes! Gain! I love her and BEG so much. Such great music and concepts. Can't wait for them to see more ♡♡♡

[@katiekawaii]

Another vote for Bloom + Paradise Lost! Gain is such an incredibly important artist pushing the ideals of feminism in a society that, despite its rapid development, remains significantly patriarchal, and those songs are two of her most important.

[@zoeyyu184]

i miss seeing them in their old best friend seating arrangement :-( is it because of their schedules or?

[@ReacttotheK]

Almost all the pairs requested for a change of pairs for this year :')

[@zoeyyu184]

ReacttotheK oh i see! it just seems like the new pairs aren't talking to each other as much as the old pairs but i can't wait to see them as the series progresses!

[@MrBabylonandon]

You guys really should do an anthology of all of GAIN's music. She is one of the finest adult jazz singers you will ever hear - with a specialty in Latin and European styles of solo work. She reminds me of European singers from earlier generations before rock and roll.

[@dumplinglady]

dude with the long hair's reaction was so amazingly well-spoken

[@yrblue1955]

I always love her conceptual music. And Carnival is one of my lifetime favorite song. It's just so wonderful and powerful.

[@geder.n.8100]

Oh My God! Right the time that I feel like to wait for a year for this reaction, then, BAM! this finally coming. You don't even know how happy I am right now :D. Thank you very much !!

[@user-fb5ev1io1z]

제발 가인-카니발 좀 들어보세요... 진짜 오랜만에 듣는 게 감사한 노래였는데 모르는 사람이 많아... 곡도 좋지만 가사의 뜻이랑 노래의 의미를 전해주는 뮤직비디오까지 진짜 미친 앨범이었는데ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

[@CrelynCreates]

OMG I WAS JUUUST CRAVING FOR MUSICIANS TO REACT TO THIS!!!! thx omg omg i cant express my gratitude pls let musicians react more~~~

[@InternetsNathan]

Love you guys! ❤

[@Psychotronicel]

I just thought about this channel and that I haven't watched your videos in a while. Now I'm here and there is even a new video from just an hour ago. I'm blessed today. :DD

[@isabellesweep]

I HAVE WAITED MY WHOLE NONEXISTENT LIFE FOR THIS Y E S

[@langitbiru7]

fun fact: 1. red shoes and carnival come from the same composer 2. it's ga like when you said god and in like in not gon(???)

[@MichaelAury]

Why not react to Gain's Fuck You or Bloom or Paradise Lost those were high art

[@user-fp4id6zy4u]

여기 한국어자막제발요.... 카니발노래진짜 좋아해서 꼭 전문가 감상평듣고싶어요ㅠㅡㅠ

[@juliy5667ew]

가인 솔로곡은 하나하나 명작ㅠㅠㅠ

[@kookieslisp2848]

You should have them react to Goblin's OST track. It's one of the most intricate tracks in my opinion

[@christ-op]

반응이 서로 극명하게 달라서 제 반응이랑 비교하면서 보는 재미가 있어서 좋아요 ㅎㅎㅎㅎ

[@annehoaglund7790]

IM HERE BRIGHT AND EARLY

[@ariannabianca5561]

Pls react to Bbolbalgan4 Galaxy and Tell me you love me!

[@sabina682]

Yes yes yes yes please

[@mikaverse.88]

yassss

[@asnra3843]

Omg plsss 😌

[@user-ez7yb3qm9w]

One of the reason i lve this channel is it's appeared when midbighthere. So this is one of my way to chopped with my insomnia :D I wish you guys will consider to react to the old kpop idol like Shinhwa - Perfect Man, Heaven, This Love, Sniper, Memory, On The Road, Aright and CSJH - My everything (1st gen SM artist) and probably DBSK when they were 5 members (Bolero, Rising Sun, Mirotic, accapela live) as they brought me to kpop for the first time. Anyway thank youuu and I love what you guys done.

[@ReyhanASL]

So sorry that newbies don't know about the old generation bands like BEG

[@MrBabylonandon]

With SNSD having just disbanded - BEG is now the last group left of their generation.

[@animehime69]

They did not disband fam. Please don't start spreading false information, for fuck's sake, and I'm not even a Sone. This bs happens with every group that loses members, or has member changes/hiatus, and not all of them have disbanded.

[@MrBabylonandon]

If that's true then why did BOTH Tiffany AND Sooyoung remove SNSD from their Instagram bios. This is a permanent split.

[@user-iw8vp8hz8w]

언어가 안 통해도 메시지가 전달돼서 기쁘다 The language is different, but feeling is same so I'm really glad about that🥰

[@PlaytimeWithChichai]

this is my first time listening to this artist..omg !

[@ystergkc]

I'm so thankful I subbed to this channel just found my new fave kpop song

[@youare-myday]

하.. 캐리에 카니발 리액션이라니 ... 가슴이 웅장해진다.... ㅜ ㅜ ... 자막 나오기까지 몇년 기다림 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 너무 좋다 내가 다 뿌듯해...

[@Kateuno]

Sorry... Does Oh My Girl “Closer” disappeared from the schedule? I thought it was there before...

[@johnlemon4647]

ekateuno thats what i thought too T.T i was so hyped when its on the list.. n then its gone

[@mehmehkitty6669]

The schedule is always changing.

[@toria7242]

It has been a horrible day for kpop but thank you for cheering me up with Gain :)

[@layannec.3833]

Gain queen 😍. Please react to B1A4 😊

[@PerlaGutierrezshinpg]

Layanne C. PLEASE♡

[@mehmehkitty6669]

You will have to wait until the 16th November

[@user-pr3ip5gv4m]

When it comes to analyzing storyline, Henry jjang! Thanks for another reaction video. I can only watch those Kpop MVs that I haven't checked if you upload more of 'em ^^

[@randomhuman850]

Need more Gain ❤❤❤ please list Bloom, Apple, and Paradise Lost ❤

[@Reborntion]

i like how kevin wore the same shirt when he reacted on two different recordings but i was honestly surprised when i saw yunyi instead hahaha

[@cramtenspace]

Yesss I've been waiting for this!!!!!

[@user-gx6fu5wx7m]

B.E.G- Sixth Sense legend

[@heyholetsg0]

strange that nobody saying anything about the similarities with IU, because i remember the very first thing pop up on my mind was "it must be the same loen composer"

[@nilly2656]

heyitsmOw it was mentioned

[@elijaharevalo7337]

I just came out to my Paradise Lost to see reacttotheK and listen how the gonna react to my one of my Queens

[@MiSSthemem0ries]

YAYYYYY YUNYIIIIII!!

[@orangytangerines]

Hey! I was wondering if you could have the vocalists (or maybe everyone) react to D.O. and Yoo Youngjin's Tell Me (What is Love)! It's a vocally powerful song that I think portrays both of their powerful singing voices.

[@Natasha_bazooca_mommy]

Im still waiting for paradise lost and bloom

[@lovelinuseu]

i like the reactions for this video! yash gain's songs are unique too. anw thanks for finally including lovelyz back to the list :B and it's WOW! awesome pick!

[@charnaeyoung9815]

IU and GaIn are musical geniuses. Glad you're reviewing her.

[@charnaeyoung9815]

Oh! React to Bloom.

[@charnaeyoung9815]

And Abracadabra.

[@musfirah1402]

Brent Fischer wrote the horn parts btw..

[@mingmangk_1636]

와 드디어 자막이 ㅠㅠㅠ 달렸어 ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

[@violetkim2098]

6:58 You are right! The same composer wrote the song of Red Shoes...

[@reni3466]

glad that lee hi still on the list of the react sched

[@user-uy7vg8tf4g]

왜...자막이없는가?!?!

[@SyndicateGila]

EYYYY YUNYIIIIII

[@nope4528]

I like the fact that you showed them this because kpop is not all hype music and mainstream and prime often make that mistake about it

[@janrupertalfeche8959]

Yunyi and Kevin, savage & accurate as always :D

[@Pincracker]

한글자막 없나요ㅠㅠ

[@stwbrchips]

I'd really like to see their reactions to Sunmi`s 24 Hours , especially the tango break haha

[@anakitasmiles3261]

SO HYANG SO HYANG SO HYANG "BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER," "ARIRANG," or "LEAN ON ME!"

[@katelynma6459]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[@enihholmes419]

Waits patiently for a So Hyang reaction (one day for sure)

[@whateven9972]

You HAVE to watch Paradise Lost if you're reactimg to herr :D

[@legendaryhyo]

Shout out to Henry for actually appreciating the song with how it is married to the video. That was the whole idea of Carnival. It was talking about a theme as dark as death but giving it a vibrant perspective to it. I read a review about it which was an interesting take on the song thepatbingsoo.com/2016/12/26/ga-in-becomes-more-beautiful-than-death-in-begin-again-ep/ But I do get how these guys get technical on the song, esp. that it's their lane. I hope you react to more Ga-In, Brown Eyed Girls, and Sunny Hill (Midnight Circus, Grasshopper Song, Prince and Princess Charming, Paradise Lost, Cleansing Cream, Bloom and a whole lot more) :D

[@jtsbbsps8000]

It's always so interesting how all the opinions differ from each other!

[@koshira1977]

Hi, love your videos! This reaction was really awesome, Just a quick note: Its not pronounced that way at 0:16, its pronounced Ga-een. Keep making great work!

[@elliemoon88]

PLEASE REACT TO GAIN'S SOLO DEBUT, IRREVERSIBLE. IT IS A FRICKING MASTERPIECE!!!!

[@infinitefantasy5277]

i wish it was "paradise lost" since its equally orchestral with a deep concept but i'll take anything B.E.G

[@POET22HERO]

i hope they will do her other songs like paradise lost and irreversible

[@KGS922]

APRIL 'Take My Hand' vs 'April Story' or 'Lovesick' juseyoooo

[@miva0612]

Please, Bloom and Paradise Lost. They are a must watch.

[@SaudiEXOL]

I was waiting for this for ages but why i saw it just now !!!

[@tomhannah3825]

After not liking Henry's reaction to Gfriend, I was very impressed here; this was the exact reaction i would LOVE to get at my funeral for my current musical choices! His appreciation for that larger-than-life character is what I want to inspire... (One is Girl's Day Nothing Lasts Forever; what do you think?) ...Good for him. :)

[@Lingxsterois3]

NEW VIDEO Thank you!!

[@sindigold4415]

한글 번역좀 해주시면 안될까요ㅜㅜㅜㅜ? 제가 가인 팬인데 저분들께서 어떻게 음악을 감상하셨는지 너무 궁금하네요ㅜㅜㅜ 영어를 못해서..ㅜㅜㅜ

[@ashleytieu6398]

Yasss this! Now it's time for Apple and Bloom!

[@4walkieW]

Omg thanks. Paradise Lost is omg good too, but thanks Umu for let the reactors to react Ga In sobs

[@FPrimeeGFX]

Should have made them react to GAIN - Paradise Lost and when are you gonna make them react to Dreamcatchers - fly high

[@bobansak2583]

They have reacted to Fly High. I think it was delayed be still due in November

[@kyleboytoy]

Please do more gain songs! Paradise Lost, Bloom and Apple! Those are my favorites!

[@mahooi]

YES GAIN! Thank you
