HONEST REACTION to K/DA - POP/STARS (ft. Madison Beer, (G)I-DLE, Jaira Burns) | Music Video

[@coolandtrending]

Yes, that was Miyeon singing. K/DA = Kills/Deaths + Assists. Soyeon's character is Akali (the masked character) and Miyeon's character is Ahri (the nine-tailed fox). They are very popular characters in League Of Legends. There is a live version of POP/STARS where they use augmented reality to integrate the characters into the stage of the live version, it is definitely worth the watch.

[@NCore_._]

Madison Beer voiced the character Evelynn the one with the scorpion tails and Jaira Burns voiced Kai'sa the one with two jet pack kinda thingy floating behind her. (Thought I would add this 'coz ya 'know Akali and Ahri aren't the only two members here)

[@leannajohnson4494]

"Akali" is soyeon, "Evelynn" is Madison Beer, "ahri" is Miyeon, and "Kai'sa" is Jaira Burns. Hope that helps :)

[@victorianichkhun8568]

The way he doesn’t know💀

[@1toosaucay]

So k/da is ae?

[@n4ev156]

K/DA members are game characters that became idols (to promote their skins in the game).The members are: Akali: Soyeon Ahri: Miyeon Evelynn: Madison beer Kai'Sa: Jaira burns The game characters are a constant because they are the idols but they can change the singers whenever. I recommend reacting to More or the baddest, Soyeon snapped there!

[@inyour_wetdreams]

When you said that the subway part reminded you of aespa, i think it's very clear now that SM took inspiration from K/DA, And i think the whole idea of K/DA as a whole i think inspired SM for aespa.

[@yyy6781]

lmao ur comments rlly make me laugh

[@Itsjudd_]

Idk if you are new in the world of kpop and the companies but it shows. A person who knows SM knows that the whole smcu is planned before aespa, nct and probably red velvet. So there's a difference between the similarities of the mv and the WHOLE CONCEPT. The sm universe is a revolutionary movement in kpop which takes the technology and the music to the next generation, they are changing the game meanwhile Kda is a bunch of promotions of their characters animated....THERE'S A DIFFERENCE AND DEFINITELY SM DIDN'T TAKE INSPIRATION IN KDA SINCE LOL DIDN'T CREATED ANIMATED THINGS NOR OWN A CONCEPT.

[@inyour_wetdreams]

@@Itsjudd_ You guys cannot give SM the excuse of "SM already did these type of concept before..." or "SM already planned the SMCU way before K/DA..." the fact is that there's A LOT of scenes from the MV that inspired SM for aespa to make the Black Mamba MV, whilst the concept itself is different, you cant tell me that SM didnt take inspiration from them... i still dont get how people are still so pressed about this statement lmao.

[@yyy6781]

@@inyour_wetdreams lmao, that scene ln the train or whatsoever is being inspired from a designer called bryan huynh. now they hired him to collaborate for aespa next level photoshoot. so stfu if u didnt know anything saying that SM got inspired from kda is making u look more stupid, go away toxic fans. also stop liking ur own comment its so cringe wtf☠️

[@inyour_wetdreams]

@@yyy6781 Bryan Huyn has no involvement on the train scene... if you wanna sound smart at least check your sources lmao, SM copied he's Artwork style for "Forever" and then they hired him to make "Next Level" also how am i toxic?? if anything you guys are the one who are toxic, me saying "SM is inspired..." isn't toxic, it's just my statement

[@rftg1793]

wow someone with culture I see

[@icybird9999]

5:20 thats actually why *Black Mamba* got a lot of controversy in the first place. Aspects of the MV were pretty similar if not a copy of *Pop Stars* , and the whole idea of AI counterparts were similar to what K/DA did (in the sense that each vocalists of K/DA had an animated counterpart that also performed with them). P.S. : this is not a statement directed to the Aespa members, but more of a retelling of the situation and the public reaction.

[@heytetsu9800]

I'm sure LSM was planning it for years and K/DA being released b4 his group might of been an unexpected encounter. After all the KWANGYA is interconnected with EXO's concept and that's been being planned since like the 80s/90s I think. But I get where the public came from, I too was reminded of K/DA

[@AmadanMath]

If it was just concept, there would be no controversy. Virtual idols might be new to Kpop but it's a pretty broad idea, there's a space for everyone. But specifics: a train car with a huge snake in it? I call shenanigans. No hate to Karina, Winter, Ningning and Giselle, but whoever storyboarded Black Mamba _must have_ seen POP/STARS and got a liberal dose of inspiration from it.

The clothes Ahri has inside the basket in the second 02:40, it's actually a Girls' Generation reference, this is from the song "Genie". They made her this skin in 2013 including their dance moves on it. Also, Ahri's base dance is from another Girls' Generation song, "Run Devil Run". It seems like there are a bunch on SNSD fans in Riot Games staff. 💫

Yeah, the idea is that the fictional characters are the members of the group, not the people who supply the vocals. They’ve swapped performers in and out of the roles, I believe. I’m pretty sure there’s a different K/DA song done entirely by Twice members.

[@sidiquerodney4982]

The only role they've never switched is Akali, she's always been voiced by Soyeon. "I'll Show You" is the song you're referring to, but it's not entirely done by twice. There's also Bekuh Boom and Annika Wells, with only four members of Twice (Jihyo, Nayeon, Chaeyoung and Sana)
