K-Pop Journey: BEAST - reaction by german k-pop fan

[@Neige700]

I'm loving these deep dive into older groups videos. Thank you for reminding me the good memories of 2nd generation kpop. It was such a great time in kpop ! ❤

[@RReacts_]

❤️ to hear that

[@hexl.9105]

@@RReacts_ Please react to TEEN TOP and INFINITE

[@RReacts_]

Will come at some point for sure ! I have plenty on my list

[@asip2274]

Beast is the BEAST at that era.. every song is GOOD

[@qoennmgdkfk6101]

I like this old kpop contents !!!! so nostalgic

[@RReacts_]

Nice to hear! yeah it's fun for me to check out aswell!

[@zammich3649]

So nostalgic. Their early era is such a representative sound for kpop around 2010 and it brings me back! And of course "Fiction" being one of the biggest kpop releases ever as far as impact and renown -- what's more, coming from a non-Big 3 company!! Groups like Beast, Infinite, and the sadly somewhat forgotten Teen Top were really making history in the industry in this era.

[@healingsmile2833]

They are currently working under the name Highlight, and they performed live at a place called Killing Voice. Killing Voice It will be fun to watch this video! 30:19 This actress's name is Park Bo-young, and she is a really famous actress in Korea!

[@RReacts_]

Yeah a Highlight video will come as well

[@julia-ul3br7uv2v]

​@@RReacts_please react to EXO Osession, Monster. They are call the vocal king of k-pop

[@exekyute]

Not sure if someone has already explained this (or if this comment will even be seen this late), but their name is often stylized as B2ST because the way the number two is said in Korean sounds like the ‘ea’ in the word beast. Additionally, ‘B2ST’ made videos/info for the group much more searchable than ‘beast’ would have.

[@b2stjunkwang]

one of the best 2nd gen group

[@flaviabarros3978]

The songs I love the most are Black Paradise and Sorry The songs I love the most are Black Paradise and I'm sorry they don't have a music video

[@turtledvs]

Yoseob truly has a cute face! I remember Suzy said he is her ideal type lol

[@mdm6920]

I'm loving this 2nd gen throwback binge! I used to be a huge K-pop fan during those years, though I don't have the time to keep up with the new gen anymore, I still enjoy watching 2nd gen MVs every now and then, so what you're doing is perfect for me! Can you do Infinite, Teen Top, and 4Minute next? 😍😍🥰

[@addictedtoyou8506]

Ribbon was a really good song that the lyrics keeps on reminding me of their old member Hyunseung. i still support them all 🥺🥺❤❤

[@aseeyuuuh]

they performed at a few university festivals in korea recently and although they’re 2nd gen, people still know their songs and sang along with them. please check it out 🙏

[@RReacts_]

How cool!

[@kww10]

One of the ex-member of beast, Hyunseung, was almost a Bigbang member. After both debuted, they still keep in touch and close friends. The most recent public interaction is his interview w Daesung in Zip daesung. Please do a deep dive of VIXX next please!

[@LanaVasel]

Yes VIXX please )

[@RReacts_]

Oh how cool! And Vixx is on my list also

[@anishakalita335]

Beast ( Now Highlight) was the first kpop group I knew or listened to..There music is so nostalgic to me..specially fiction(❤ that song) and Ribbon being so emotional.. I miss the time I listened to them..😊

[@amb-ooli447]

No one mentioned this The acress in the breath and beautiful video was Naeyon of Apink The whe of Apink are in the beautiful video Back then when Apink were trainees they were under Acube a subsidiary of Cube ent so they have lost of videos a colabs with Beast and later Acube became its own thing and has now expanded and is known as IST entertainment

[@TheHitokirigenki]

Fun Fact: Most of the members here are ex-/rejected contestants from other idol group reality shows. Hyunseung was supposed to be in Bigbang, Dojoon was supposed to be in 2PM, Junyoung (which we all hate now), was an ex-idol rapper from another group that disbanded, Yoseob and Kikwang were backup dancers for other idols and were in JYP and SM before being cut from other groups, Kikwang was also a failed solo idol debut idol AJ, and Dowoon was just a few months trainee when they debuted Beast/B2st. They were known as the "recycled" idols back then because of their status as unknown, rejected trainees, but now we know how these groups kinda did themselves dirty without passing them. They rose to popularity with Shock, but they were known for their intense rivalry with MBLAQ, Rain's group.

[@aseeyuuuh]

the song BEAUTIFUL has a continuation in another mv called I LIKE YOU THE BEST which will explain everything. it’s not on their channel, idk why, but fans have re-uploaded it so you’ll easily find it if you wanna check it out

私はbeastがデビューした時から大ファンでした❤彼らの現在はそれぞれ違う道を歩んでるメンバーもいますが、本当に曲、MVが素晴らしかったです🎉リアクションしてくださってありがとうございます😊

[@Mary-i5c1m]

Mmmmm..fiction is so catchy - my fav from them. "THE choreo" fascinates me. Will watch your Highlight reaction. One of their members was nearly the 6th member of bigbang (More from them too please.) He trained with them. He is of course talented - which is why he was chosen by another agency and debuted. Also, could you maybe react to Rain's killing voice video? I love his tone. First mv I saw of his was How to Run from the Sun (various translations of the title.) I loved it so much - still do. Also for 2nd gen maybe check out FTisland. Their lead singer has an amazing voice. I like most of their discography. So many requests - sorry :) Got too into it.

[@sugarbabyx.-2871]

My first kpop love. 💓

[@RReacts_]

How sweet

[@balladmusicrules]

omg a beast reaction

[@user-ydj]

Thank you for the reaction! Additionally, what she wrote in the fiction video is some of the fiction lyrics! 지금 난 너무나도 행복한 생각에 이야기를 쓰지만, 모든 게 바램일 뿐이라고... 여전히... And just to tell you a little bit about "No more," this is the first song to kick a girl for BEAST. LOL. Before this song, they were all dumped, and all ex-boyfriend songs they regretted. But fans and KPOP fans liked it, saying that BEAST finally kicked a girlfriend! At that time, some of the second generation idols had the nickname of ex-boyfriends such as BEAST and INFINITE. LOL! And I don't know if it's possible, but there are some songs that Beast released in Japan! I remember that "Adrenaline" was probably the debut song in the comments in this video! I love Japanese songs because they are so great! So I hope you will react to them someday! And since all the members released solo albums, solo albums too! Sorry for being greedy lol

[@alien_fairy1973]

35:20 these words are from beginning of fiction (song) lyrics

[@chasdore]

Edit: sorry in advance for the block of info dumping 😅 They were known as the perfect "ex boyfriends" group as Beast lol because they have so many songs about breaking up but still being in love Their choruses being such earworms and the lyrics being from the pov of the man which was a rarity at the time are big reasons as to why they were one of the few male groups to be well loved in the Korean general public and had/have a lot of fanboys. Their fandom as Beast was called Beauty but they created "Beastly" for their male fans. They were often cited together with BigBang and TVXQ when it comes to widely popular groups! The girl is Breath and Beautiful is Naeun of Apink (the girl group in the dance off at the start of Beautiful MV is pre-debut Apink) 14 years later the "This song is not over" at the end of Shock still males me laugh Say No was Shock's coupling song (fun trivia, HYBE's Bang PD is in the songwriting credits), having a title track and coupling song(s) with very different or even opposite vibes is something they still do every time, for instance Body's coupling song is Switch On which is a very hip-hop and cool vibe No More was a creative way to introduce their Instagram handles 😊 Shadow was MV of the year 2013, and Good Luck was Billboard's kpop song of the year in 2014 Fiction charted in Europe at the time (I think it went up to third in Germany) and was played on the radio so that might be why you feel nostalgic listening to it Gikwang is indeed both very good looking and a very talented singer, he is the main dancer but was in the vocal department of his high school together with his best friend Yoseob (cute looking main singer) He actually debuted as a solo artist and Cube's first idol under the name AJ (Ace Junior) half a year before Beast and two weeks before 4MINUTE, with 3 of the Beast members as backup dancers/rappers! His song Dancing Shoes is still kind of a meme 😂 During that time he opened for Lady Gaga at her 2009 Korean Showcase, started acting in a well loved (to this day) drama called High Kick Through The Roof and debuted in Japan where he announced he'd continue activities as a 6 members group and introduced the members on the stage Btw just a correction, they didn't change labels when they became Highlight they created their own company 😊
