*PLEASE READ* PUT DOWN your pitchforks! We did a PART 2 of EXO and it went much better so before you get in your feelings, appreciate everyone's tastes are different and you'll be much happier with the second reaction! JOIN my Patreon for more exclusive content here: patreon.com/koko3op

[@pencharles2696]

How is it that people don't respect each other as individuals? We all have different tastes and preferences. It's frustrating to see disclaimers like this.

[@artistblue18]

Based on your disclaimer and Jake’s other reactions, I was expecting worse . Lol almost didn’t watch the reaction. He is just anti-dark songs. Although his snap judgement about “ dancing not being their strong point” after only One song that wasn’t choreo-heavy. 😅😅😅

[@JoenilMinguez]

Why there's disclaimer? As an exol im not really offended if some people don't like them, u can't push people to like certain group.

[@gwyn_8562]

“Put down your pitchforks” hahahaha i cant-

[@rkdo9554]

His reactions to these songs are the same as my cousins' who live in the UK. They did not like these songs at first coz they were expecting teeny bopper songs with rap about positivity and empowerment as these are what they got used to from the Kpop groups that are heavily promoted in the west. So they were surprised that EXO is different. Perhaps, the lack of western promotion of EXO is somehow a blessing in disguise as they weren't stuffed into a bubble of limited musical freedom by western agencies.

[@yspekpop]

Monster is THAT song. It brings me into kpop 6 years ago and it still slaps so hard 😢

[@hannahsmith8717]

did he really just look at Kai and then go: “I get the impression that dancing is not their strong point” I get that he doesn’t have much context at this point but wow.

[@magra453]

Exactly. lol

[@shaycorry9070]

I’m a year late but he had me like “get him out of here”! 🤣🤣🤣 All love and jokes, but dang… !!!

[@maychecksout]

"it feels like im in the garden and it's getting dark and im by myself" lmaooo monster really does have that feel. surprised none of these really did it for them but enjoyed this reaction for sure!

[@magra453]

I think that’s why I love those first two songs. The darkness. Lol

[@maychecksout]

@@magra453 me too! I love darker songs and concepts

[@darklotus_7]

That took me out 😂

[@remixedv]

The analogies, hilarious... EXO at times can be a dark place... hardly any unicorns. 'Call Me Baby' has the New Jack Swing sound and that's what his ears are picking up. It's Teddy Riley's signature. The chords in 'Obsession' is a gem, sweet. Great reaction guys.

[@mochaangel1967]

I love his reviews but please educate him on the fact that EXO is the blueprint for most of the KPop groups that we see today.

[@Lifebubble167]

Exo are vocal kings 👑 but their dances are complex too.

[@liza_pet]

Do Kyungsoo is just incredible in every sense. He is one of the few vocalists who can make your heart flutter and cause a storm of emotions. He manages his deep voice and sweet timbre with such ease that the same part can sound completely different "starting very roughly and ending unrealistically gently". Kyungsoo's unique voice gives each song a unique charm. I'm ready to listen to his voice as much as I want.! Even when Kyungsoo just speaks, he wants to listen and listen to endlessly, such a pleasant voice. PLEASE REACTION TO: D.O SOLO ALBUM "EMPATHY". D.O OST "CRYING OUT". D.O OST "DON'T WORRY". D.O MV "ROSE". D.O MV "THAT'S OKAY". D.O MV "TELL ME WHAT IS LOVE". D.O AND CHEN "WERE THE TIME". D.O AND RYEWOOK "MISSING YOU". D.O, SUHO, BAEKHYUN PERFORMANCE "MY ANSWER". D.O AND CHANYEOL "FOR LIFE". D.O AND CHANYEOL COVER "YOURSELF". D.O AND CHANYEOL COVER "BOYFRIEND". D.O AND CHANYEOL COVER "BILLIONAIRE".

[@tunamyDo]

Not mentioning he always channeled energy 'i.wish.i.wasnt.here' energy, but kill it for every task handled to him.

[@wesxvin]

not "this is not the happy place, where is the unicorn???" lmaoooo he's too funny!!! but FR, they will deliver the "sh*ts about to go DOWN" atmosphere in the best way in these dark concepts, i live

[@sseulayingsince1994]

but the unicorn is there tho when he watched monster

[@bbbbbbbbbb0]

Jake is a tough cookie to please but I like it because his reactions are honest 😂

[@HiHello2you]

I think they would like obsession stage version better that really showcased the dancing and performance in general or some of their other dance practices. Cant wait for more Exo content. sending lots of luv🤗

[@annyeongjuliegreen1415]

I was not a fan of obsession at first but as the time went by...it became so DOPE!

[@abeing6817]

I love that exo takes us to a dark and mysterious place after a major note. It’s so unexpected. But I can’t see how it throws some off.

[@aydenmedany2621]

Tbh I was shocked by this reaction😒. ANYWAY WE AS EXO-LS KNOW...THEY SLAYED EVERY CONCEPT. THANKS

[@azurehickman7524]

His reaction to EXO was horrible. They seem like they don’t concentrate on dance..wtf! He needs to open his eyes and ears

[@shakiraYouTube]

Jake is TOO funny. I love his engery and honesty🤣. "What If" is a really good slow r&b song he'll probably like

[@Koko3op]

This is in part 2!

[@shakiraYouTube]

@@Koko3op 🔥🔥I can't wait

[@gaearin1662]

Exo will always be my babies. I went through thick and thin with them. From predut until now. 2014 and 2015 were painful years and Promise haunts my soul. They are my second Ult group❣ forever EXO-L

[@liza_pet]

EXO KINGS AND LEGENDS OF K-POP FOREVER ETERNA-A FACT THAT HAS NO LONGER NEEDS ANYONE'S APPROVAL. POPULARITY AND LEGNDARITY ARE DIFFERENT CONCEPTS. Popularity is there today, tomorrow it is gone, and LEGENDARITY IS WITH YOU FOREVER. EXO songs released in 2012 in their debut album are relevant to this day. EVERY EXO ALBUM IS A VISION OF ART THAT YOU CAN LISTEN TO ENDLESSLY. EXO MUSIC IS TIMELESS. EXO ARE RELEVANT EVEN AFTER 10 YEARS OF CAREER.

[@dowdydiva]

His views were really well thought out. He knows his own taste. Nobody has to vibe with everything, you know. I think he might like Gravity, Lucky One or Power.

[@su6869]

i think Jake would like kokobop the most! or maybe lucky one? love me right? idk, make him watch those tho ^^ ps. if i can suggest some more reactions, not necessarily for jake, but gravity, damage, white noise, sign, jekyl, those are all great songs with great live choreos too!

[@kaaisari8868]

Maybe Jake would like lucky or 24/7 ??? Ahahaaha

[@maferhurtado7026]

oh i love when reactors are honest! I

[@liza_pet]

EXO is my very first and only favorite band in the entire industry. It doesn't matter how many more years pass, EXO were, are and will be Kings of K-POP, Kings of Vocals, Legends and Discoverers of the 3rd generation. EXO, even after 10 years of career, are the most popular, sought-after and highly paid SM group. Yes, because they are their best band in the history of the company. EXO is the only band with such a variety of high-quality music, choreography and visual effects. PLEASE REACTION TO EXO PLANET #4: GROWL. THE EVE. KO KO BOP. FOREVER. PLEASE REACTION TO EXO PLANET #5: 24/7. TEMPO. DAMAGE. GRAVITY.

[@gravityVL1485]

PERIODT.

[@rebeckaroy6790]

You did pick some dark ones for him to start out with ahahahaha Especially if he doesn't like the creepy/omninous vibes. Story line is huge and the concept for Monster and Obsession is very specific. As usual though, it's not like you can represent their discography and style with a few title tracks. No one could. There is just too much and so much variety. (Would love to see his reaction to EXO-CBX Blooming Day etc. that one came to mind immediately, don't know why. :)

[@Koko3op]

Ha yeah I didn’t know he was anti dark but the next selection was his vibe.

[@kaaisari8868]

I can't wait for next part . Thanks for this reaction. I believed that Jake Will be EXOL with another songs

[@lamilagrosa3412]

Call me baby is a Teddy Riley production!

[@ERIK13312]

Lool 'I guess dancing is not their strong point' on their dance break- the shade

[@ericacella1180]

I have to say I'm quite disappointed he didn't really like them...but i mean to each their own right? If dark was not his style i guess the first impression couldn't be much positive hahaha

[@tretren1468]

I like that he’s honest and doesn’t just say what fans want hear. He says his opinion that’s fine. It’s refreshing

[@lenellscheeler9355]

He might like Koko Bop.

[@doodlemunchkin2222]

Nah I get how to first half is super satisfying, but for me I love the entire piano bit-whole thing is heavenly imo. Best part of the song for me. Been obsessed with this song since it dropped lol

[@nyasha7721]

I got his number - EXO - Love Me Right, El dorado (the epic live version), and The Eve or Lucky One Side note but: why tf is heart attack playing in my head lemme go relisten to exo's xoxo album cause whole thing is filled with Bawps

[@ruslan_kasimov]

That part that Jake was singing reminded me of the beginning of tamed-dashed fsr

[@eleonorestuart4089]

What is wrong with this reactor..these are insanely great songs by EXO..they have storylines which are not necessarily rainbows and kitties. Everyone has the right to what they like but we all know EXO are vocal kings and great dancers.

[@DanceDelightOfficial]

Exo we will forever be each other's baby

[@stellp2956]

'I get the impression that dancing is not their strong point' 🤦‍♀🤣😂🤣

[@Koko3op]

Loool this comment was definitely in context of what they showcased in obsession since it’s not a dance heavy choreo song.

[@Lifebubble167]

I cracked so hard on that lol 🤣 They have some of the complicated choreos ever.

[@WendyInMD]

@@Koko3op For some songs I really really wish the reactor could see the video AND the dance practice or a performance video.

[@stellp2956]

@@WendyInMD exactly, they don't know about Kpop and how it works with MV, stage version and dance practice etc so they should be shown

[@tanishanyree7762]

The beginning of Call Me Baby what Jake was talking about reminds me of “These Words” by Natasha Bedingfield.

[@l.c.6282]

Maybe try the live versions of Artificial Love and Playboy.

[@dawkins988]

' No sex before marriage catholic church major ' lmao I love this man.....

[@thezircadia]

"I'm sitting in the garden and I'm by myself and it's getting dark..." hahahahaha XD That one chord really does sound like that startup chime haha :D See it's funny because I for one LOVE a little hey were going major JUST KIDDING moment, but of course that's not for everyone. It's a good commentary, full of clear opinions and why the opinions are being stated :D "You haven't earned that" hahahhaa I'm excited to see the part 2 you mentioned! Call Me Baby definitely is more suited - more major vibes and clearer choreo visuals but too peppy so you were going in the right direction I feel like :D hahaha that surprise when we go from subunit to full group ahhaha OMG yesss Everything is Everythiiiing - yeahhhhhhh

[@lajuliet5164]

SO GLAD you discovered my ultimate boy group ❤️🔥

[@beatrizanguloperez9538]

Este tipo si quiere ver arcoiris que vea los teletubis... Que desperdicio enseñarle algo de calidad a una persona que no lo aprecia

[@licellajoyceapawan4169]

maybe Moonlight, Angel, Cosmic Railway and some tracks in XOXO and EXODUS album

[@licellajoyceapawan4169]

You should try EXO's winter songs for him

[@ashmirrahnashihinzahlan8786]

"It sounds when starting a laptop screen" Lol now I can't unseen that 😭😂🤣 "And why there are many of them?" Had me laughing since Call me Baby is the only song that you showed him with the OT12 😭🤣

[@krungkrung5781]

[@quanzy121]

If he wants unicorns and happy places .. let him react to Blue Hour (TXT) or Touch (NCT) if he hasn't already of course lol

[@kalogfam440]

Exo winter song should be flex too

[@ayouspace4780]

I think Exo and usually most SM groups, are not easy for non kpop fans. They're confusing musically and the videos don't help either xD. I myself find it very hard to like SM groups music, their solo stuff on the other hands is usually much better and easier to grasp

[@ayouspace4780]

@UCF-oSxpGGvw4AmzNjo9yI0w 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you are just trying to pick a fight. I said it's hard to like the SM groups' music. 1. That doesn't mean i hate all their songs, actually i do like these 3 songs, and it might be because they grew on me, or maybe from the start, i don't remember tbh because they're old 😂 so i just know i vibe with these songs. 2. I don't need to like a group or a song to watch a reaction, am not a kpop blin fan who's only looking for people who like what he likes to validate his taste in music. Maybe am a fan of the channel, or a fan of the reactor. There are many reasons to watch a reaction other than being a blind fan of the song. Anyways CHILL

[@marmar8604]

I don’t really agree esp when talking about EXO, they are a good group for someone to get into kpop and I see many non kpop fans instantly like them actually they one of the groups that I would show easily to my non kpop friends

[@Raeray440]

I am way late for this reaction. I hope you got him to react to their solo's like D.O and Baekhyun and Suho and Kai and even Layshawn I mean Lay. Did he really ask how many was in EXO? They started out with 12 now its 9 I believe. Sadly some members left due issues in their contract and personal health issues. The OG EXO-L know what I mean. I miss the full group but I'm happy that the one's who left are doing so well.

[@lolaBee9]

He should react to Tempo next:)

[@ayenayen3806]

I didn't like Obsession when it was first released and thought it was their weakest title song at that time. I only came to like it this year LOL so taste can really vary

[@poki_teehee6382]

I think Jake should react to seventeen

[@gravityVL1485]

I understand that everyone has their own taste but you can't tell straight to kai's face that they're not really good at dancing, he's literally one of the few KINGS! btw, i have the impression that he should dive into exo's discography a lil more, they have literally almost every genre down! Maybe if you knew what he was looking for, it would have been different. Some love me right, growl, lucky one, ko ko bop (since he wants rainbows and unicorns) there is so much stuff even from b-sides!

[@mochimochi82]

Not a fan. The only way for a Part 2 to redeem the snide comments and general disrespect in Part 1 is to make Part 1 disappear retroactively. Not a pitchfork, just my opinion.

[@wfh6453]

Jake react to overdose by exo please

[@totheworld2731]
