COUPLE REACTS TO aespa 에스파 'Forever (약속)' , 'Life's Too Short', 'Dreams Come True' MVs

[@KessandHanReacts]

We're having an aespa deep dive stream this Saturday 5/13 @ 11:30am EST on our Twitch! We'll be watching a ton of live stages, b-sides, and much more! Make sure to head over and drop a follow on our Twitch! : twitch.tv/kessandhan

[@natnat586]

The way I just sign up twitch for this deep dive stream 🎉🎉

[@天閃-n3p]

Let’s go

[@AB-cp5fn]

In fact for me this is not very aespa, it is more a first experimental stage while the producers decided better the concept and the sound. The girls actually didn't like his concept at first.

[@DadzBoat]

Oh, they don’t know Dreams Come True is a remake, nor just how legendary the history behind the song is (literally pioneered kpop GGs)

[@dizzymcdizz]

Aespa killing the 1st gen cover! "DREAMS COME TRUE" originally by S.E.S. came out in 1998. Its a classic and they did such a good job keeping the classic sound while mixing some modern vibes into it. The lil alien robot is a direct call back to the original song nd video.. its iconic! Yall should def check out the original at some point, maybe during the next deep dive!

[@sleepyjoe4529]

Song was originally by Nylon Beat, which is a Finnish girl group. SM licensed the song and S.E.S covered it in Korean.

[@jamescurfman3284]

Thank you! I could not remember who it was! I have a TERRIBLE memory these days, it sucks! Glad you remembered. :)

[@gakon113]

@@sleepyjoe4529it is not cover guys. It's remake

[@Omarsaadny]

​@@sleepyjoe4529 it's not a cover lol. SME originally bought the credits for the song means the lyrics belonged to SME

[@52ster]

@@sleepyjoe4529 Sooman Lee heard this song when he went to Cannes in Europe to attend MIDEM one of the music festivals at the time, and immediately flew to Finland and went to the original singer's house to sign a contract. He signed a provisional contract on the spot and bought the copyright. A few years later, SM held the SM Writer's Conference in France with global composers participating. At this time, the original author came with a gift and asked Lee Soo-man if he remembered S.E.S. Lee Soo-man said he remembered the memories. (translator)

[@matthewhocking3575]

There's a documentary about how the cover of Dreams Come True came about. BoA worked on rearranging the song, and she tried to figure out what the alien rap lyrics were. She wrote out what she thought the lyrics were and brought them to the original producer of the song who told her, "Nah, it was just nonsense." That whole series is very fun and wholesome.

[@big_mammas_house2]

btww "dreams come true" is a remake of a song by a 1st gen group called S.E.S

[@Superion74]

The song by S.E.S. is itself a remake song too.

[@sleepyjoe4529]

@@Superion74 Technically it's not a remake. A remake would be a totally different sound/vibe, which is what AESPA did. S.E.S's song is a Korean language cover of a song called "Rakastuin mä looseriin" ("Like a Fool") by Finnish girl group, Nylon Beat.

[@dercfts1]

​@@sleepyjoe4529 it wasn't a cover, sm bought the song

[@HPFan4Life81]

@@sleepyjoe4529 They bought the English version which came out in 1996

[@arisuxayanokoji4779]

Fun fact: Giselle is a choir in highschool even Karina said that Giselle has the best musicality in the group.

[@a.a677]

and winter and ningning says giselle can sing the highest

[@veronicapak3599]

Giselle actually had a lot of choir experiences before entering SM and starting rap, so she definitely got vocal skills. And, that's way she can sing and rap at the same time:)

[@rahjahknows]

Life's Too Short works so well, I'm impressed they came out with the English version first to make sure it flowed properly

[@TabAtkinsJr]

Life's Too Short is seriously one of my fave songs, it feels so good to sing.

[@SleepingLittleHedgehog]

agree! but i kind of surprised when some mys don’t really like the song and called it cringe 😢

[@TabAtkinsJr]

@@SleepingLittleHedgehog sometimes… teens are bad

[@TabAtkinsJr]

But also imagine calling Life's Too Short cringe, like what response do you think you'd get from that, GIVEN THE SONG ITSELF

[@davidk6269]

"Dreams Come True" is one of my all-time favorite Kpop songs. It was a big hit by the FIRST ever SM girl group: S.E.S. This cover is a loving homage to the O.G. SM girl group legends! As a further loving nod to S.E.S., Giselle sings "I'm in Twilight Zone (16:08), and that is a reference to another S.E.S. song entitled "Twilight Zone". : )

[@ArdenAdams2125]

And when I say that Karina's vocals at 12:02 and 17:18 altered my brain chemistry...

[@HeiwaTori]

right?? like my bias out here biaswrecking me 😅

[@quirkysmile]

teehee i love that

[@a.a677]

[@igorcarvalho3087]

I'm glad you guys reacted to dreams come true. It's one of my favorite things Aespa's ever done

[@aespa_karina_]

Dream come true is my favorite song

[@forthemusic2037]

Winter does a lot of the 'yeah yeah' adlibs in their songs. Ningning does the Ariana Grande type runs like 'ooh ooh' or 'whoa whoa'. I listen to so much aespa that I can pick it up in a second :)

[@mungethekpopstan]

I am stoked for dreams come true! This is a remake, BoA and Bada (of S.E.S) helped. And the song is originally by S.E.S!

[@yoseee]

Life’s too short is a song dedicated for their haters, our haters. Every idol has their song for their haters 😂❤

[@yamatoofredania9829]

Winter was the one who did all the adlibs at the end of "Dreams Come True" and Ningning was the one who did the "whoa whoa" part at the end

[@eulizjacinto4163]

No, it's clearly Winter, have you seen the live performances for Dreams Come True?

[@yamatoofredania9829]

@@eulizjacinto4163 yes I have lmao. Literally go watch all of their live performances of DCT. Winter doesn’t move her lips during that part, but Ningning does. There’s even a Ningning focused fancam that shows her singing the “whoa whoa” part at the end lol

[@yuurichb6076]

@@eulizjacinto4163 it literally sounds like ningning

That Dreams Come True reactiong was so fun and hilarious! You guys are so entertaining to watch! Plus aespa just really hits 🤌

[@rahjahknows]

LOL WINTER WAS SO POWERFUL SHE BROKE THE COMPUTER OMG

[@taengoonim]

The recording bts of dct is must watch, ningning and winter effortlessly hit all those notes

[@jenniferj1503]

Giselle is actually a singer, but she wanted to try rapping when she audition for SM. Which was got in 😂

[@chxerrylips]

just a few understand how much i love *forever...* it's a beautiful song and it evokes a nice feeling in me ⁠♡

[@puthyboi967]

It's such a good song. I'm happy people appreciate as much as I do 😭

[@WhiteShadow0708]

I just burst out laughing at "She has a knife again" 🤣🤣11:16

[@quinton3199]

Aespa amazing Vocalists and performer's who knows how to make a difference with their individual presence and confidence whenever they release music to their own stuff or previous SM groups and artists

[@Shakedownsss]

Finally. Dreams come true 🔥

[@GopherCakeStuff]

Dreams come true has a little alien in it, he's pretty much speaking gibberish. The song is about being in love so it feels like a dream and like things dont always make sense XD

[@aellusion]

Ur guys aespa content is what keeps me alive

[@cesare.7865]

I was/am so obsessed with dreams come true that my spotify wrapped last year said it's the song I listened to the most in a day with over 700 replays...

[@NJDMashups]

So two of the songs reacted here are actually remakes: AESPA's 'Forever' is actually a remake of another SM artist named Yoo Young-Jin, released in 2000. I believe he's also a producer at SM... or formerly. and then 'Dreams Come True' is a remake of first generation SM girl group, S.E.S., released in 1998. There's been many covers of the S.E.S version; one of which featured Red Velvet's Irene, Seulgi, and Joy, and TWICE's Momo, Tzuyu, and Chaeyoung

[@sleepyjoe4529]

Dreams come true by S.E.S (1998) is actually the Korean cover of the Finnish Song "Rakastuin mä looseriin" ("Like a Fool") by Finnish girl group, Nylon Beat which came out in 1996.

[@susantoarismunandar]

Some say that aespa is the most versatile group in K-pop.

[@sleepyjoe4529]

Yes some people do say that. I am one of them.

[@btsismyoxyjin2013]

And that's a fact

[@aztrazeneaca]

You need to listen to Aespa - Hold on Tight (Tetris OST)

[@chxerrylips]

they did on twitch stream last week ^^

[@hesanesa78]

The original song of Dreams Come True was released in 1998 by the SES group and was under the same SM label as Aespa. This is a new name for Aespa.

[@hesanesa78]

[@hellofuture5]

forever and dream come true actually a remake songs from their big senior in SM Ent, Forever is a song by ex-SM producer Yoo Youngjin, Dream Come True is a song by S.E.S (SM's first girlgroup) (i think they are the 1st in kpop too). Dream Come True is a remake project by SM ent and there's a documentary abt it. Producer Yoo Youngjin, the original owner of Forever also on the documentary

[@poluantiara772]

Vocal Queen AESPA

[@jemcarstairs259]

Karina's voice is amazing, she's really an all rounder

[@quirkysmile]

o i love her voice sm too

[@dinocrystal6590]

Cant wait for the deep dive stream on Saturday!!!!

[@yt4ae]

I absolutely love your reactions to the dreams come true alien rap. I wasn't familiar with the original song either when I first heard Aespa's verison and I felt the exact same way.

[@duster8up]

The fact that "Dreams Come True" which is at this point a quarter century old and still impresses modern audiences, is impressive.

[@wall-e58]

"Life's too short" is not just a song, is a lifestyle

[@52ster]

[@rachelchibi07]

So, you reacted to the cutesy, soft, dreamy mvs all at once! These are just fun to watch and easy to listen to. No connections to lore.

[@okgoose]

i love lifes too short so much! dreams come true is one of my favorite kpop songs of all time so when i got into aespa after you guys got me into spicy i was so thrown for a loop the first time i hear their version because i wasnt expecting it to be so different but they did such a great job of doing it justice and still making it their own. i hope you guys listened to the original after because i really feel like you would love it!

[@blessindisgse]

You can react to their recording behind of "Dreams come true" in RE:Masterpiece!

[@arthurmrl]

nothing crazy is happening in the Forever MV but I was obsessed with it when it dropped bc it looks like a throwback to early 00s Britney, like this could be a Lucky or Stronger set

[@chai8058]

ACEpa!! They slay all positions ❤❤❤

[@mairaleao]

That might be a controversial pick but "Life is too short" is my favorite bside from them (at least until the "my world" era).

[@fatmcgee509]

Forever is a remake of an older song if I’m not mistaken. But it’s gorgeous nonetheless!! Life’s Too Short is a great song that grew on me and is a never-skip now. Aespa is just so good!

[@kwangyagal]

Yeah forever is a remake!

[@Viini28]

Three songs is so hot. Loved aespa and you reactions, thank you for supporting aespa, she's is so necessary on kpop and industry.

Next aespa hold on tight 🔥

[@dellaeanasafira2194]

the fact that the first time they perf LTS was in coachella, this song was really slap into antis’ faces HARD

[@Eeeelllleee]

Aespa continuing the SM vocals tradition 😅😊😊😊

[@thecebuanaph]

Then you guys should watch the recording and making of dreams comes true. That was really incredible how Boa their senior “Queen of Kpop” directed the girls in the right track for this song.

You should watch 'og kpop stan - dreams come true' reaction. Her reaction to the song was so great since she knew the original.

[@treeleaf2089]

omg yall finaly did the song i wanted

[@rahjahknows]

I agree with the comments I've seen about reacting to Illusion before the deep dive this weekend! Would love to see yall's reaction to Illusion on YT if yall don't have it on the docket already. Maybe also consider also reacting to the dance practice version, as the only other official Illusion vid from Aespa is just a lyric video. Definitely deserved its own M/V.

[@nataliah3243]

The robot language is a callback to the alien language of the original SES song 😂

[@stefb95]

About Dreams Come True, BoA was one of the producers, she switched the rappers and the vocalists so you have ningning and winter doing some rap parts and karina and giselle singing more. The robot part was from the original mv and I don't think what it says means anything, also there is a youtube originals series of the making of the song and mv!

[@nanzzz57]

Omg, never have been this early before, but thank you for the reactions

[@takeberries]

not sure if you guys remember from the smcu vids but the rap in dreams come true is kwangyan! like ae for example is a word from their language

the english lyrics in dreams come true make no sense but it's because they were written by people not fluent in english. i rly wanna know what giselle was thinking when she read them for the first time lol and from what i've gathered, the alien rap was also written in broken english in the 90s but then they just went with gibberish instead. it's camp
