[@shineinstars]

​@@SScxrseheavyyy on the bratz vibes

[@youwonyonly]

this is what happens when a kpop gg is alr at the right age to serve the sexiest hiphop concept ever. their visuals, vocals, dance, and rap are sooo well-put together in this mv. these girls deserve the greatest recognition i swear!!! i love how they are giving us so much effort in every song they do! 🙌

[@madesense3]

But thank god, haneul isnt really push to for sexy vibe withher presence. They slayed

[@heliotikis]

@@shuyi_555that’s still crazy young for everyone to claim she’s the perfect age for sexy concept. when someone says sexy i think mamamoo or sistar aged idols, these girls are still young

[@aloneinwinter_]

KISS OF LIFE saving kpop with this kind of concept, their concept different from any other 5th gen groups, and their concept kinda give mamamoo vibes imo

[@cascas2061]

Dont diss them like that

[@d4ze_22]

I remember when someone was saying “ I don’t see the hype around kiss of life, they just seem like any girl crush group” and I was fine with that until they said that they had a girl crush concept😳their concept is about freedom tho

[@dinahblakely1888]

​@@cascas2061How is this dissing?

[@MangoJush]

they're like if EXID and Mamamoo had a baby!!

[@ibrahimabarry4937]

I think we should stop praising them by comparing them to other groups, it will make other fanbases start to hate the group 😭

[@JIHANNIEKO]

anyone notice that during the bridge, the girls reference the titles of their solo songs when they sang one by one

I didn’t notice that until watching her react to it

AGREE

[@Lyarsia_Crescent]

And vocals. Vocals nowadays are something...

[@akalaSHO]

A lot of people keep pointing out how them being adults allows then to make this kinda music, but even more than that, I think it also has to do with Lee Hae-In, their director, being a member of their target audience. She’s a younger millennial and a former idol trainee. This isn’t some 40 yo man making music he thinks young women wanna listen to. She’s absolutely pushing music and imagery SHE and HER PEERS would want.

[@chuuu4610]

Gosh I totally see Haein working on this now that you mention it. She served so hard performing Irony on PD101. She has amazing sense in sultry cvnt concepts.

[@nikoaugustine5415]

She slays and they slay ❤

[@arcaivz]

KISS OF LIFE really hit the 00s music nail on the head 💥 I've been a KISSY since debut and I've known they were gonna be good from the get-go, but their artistic growth is so insane that I'm still surprised every time. Truly the group to look out for. 😭❤

[@alessaxreacts9935]

Same been literally following them since predebut. It reminded me so much of Bratz dolls

[@GoLol1]

Me too since predebut tho

[@ChantelleCalyssaMoore]

*KPOP an era for sexualisation of women. Everything needs to sexy and a disgrace to the worth of women in general. Where is the worth of women*

[@chikenman334]

can we also share some appreciation with their producers and in general the entire team working on Kiss of Life? 😄 they killing it

[@yolocomics5468]

Especially Lee Hae in

[@iloveyoutwice09]

All of the members own this era!

[@lia701]

It's rare to see a group like that, where everyone shines and has their own charms

[@Like_everything-p3l]

Haneul era!!

[@migu8328]

​@lia701 truee, even though screentime wise they vary and lines too, but looking at it fully, THEY ALL SHINE INDIVIDUALLY

[@mkd4465]

They give 2000’s vibe and I love it .. and Backstreet Boys vibe Britney vibe so nostalgic 😍😍😍

[@purificationjewelry743]

Listening to this song from Kiss of Life brings back memories of listening to Britney Spears back in the day. I think it's a good song to listen to.

[@nurainamani4226]

i'm so happy that the company truly invests in these talented girls like from the visuals, mv production, song production, quality really impress me a lot. and the best part is, they did the nostalgia - 2000s, britney spears, gwen stefani, RIGHT. they did it good and we re here for it!

[@sadserenity]

none of those music videos were actually released 14 years ago😭 that’s just when a lot of old music videos were officially put on youtube! lady marmalade was actually 2001 and rich girl was 2004😭 but YES the kiof mv definitely gives both of those songs, plus britney vibes

[@ldns59]

up

[@bruh9952]

Ngl I was the most hyped for this comeback out of every group release and they did not leave a single crumb.

[@Casper745]

Kiss Of Life made me think about old school Music with their voices and range as a performer and vocalist always surpass you're expectations with their style and sound engineering and instrumentals

[@mewmewmew2000]

you’re right about it being early 2000s, those MVs were only posted 14 years ago bc that’s when youtube became popular, they’re actually 20+ years old!

[@MuhammadHafidz-n7i]

did you notice before the last part, they mentiones each of their solos like thats sooo cleverr 😭❤️❤️

[@michelledawn7446]

When I searched this I didn’t expect there to be any reactions yet so I am happy to see this.

[@iamadreamer3149]

The styling, the beat, the melody and the singing are slaying SO HARD. I can't believe they can top every comeback and serve the unimaginable.

[@joyboy6472]

I can't express enough how much i love this group 😭 thanks for reacting coco

[@Knockoutt126]

I love the art direction in this mv, it’s very Greek/Roman aesthetically which goes well w the Midas and Medusa references! Some of my favorite parts that visually represent these: For Midas, there’s the overall expensive vibes throughout the video but I ESPECIALLY love the scene that looks like they’re literally eating precious stones and jewelry. King Midas was fueled by *greed* (which led to his golden touch backfiring when he accidentally turned his daughter into gold) Natty’s spiderweb scene is very black widow/maneater like you said, and I think the Medusa references really add to that as well. You can spot Medusa’s head in a couple places in the mv (car hood ornament and gold coin) but there’s also the snakes and statues; I especially love the billboard scene because all the stone statues look like the audience to the performance (not so subtle implication of the fandom falling into their trap- which NONE of us are upset about lol) I truly love this song and KIOF’s throwback concepts bc 90s-2010s pop and rnb was what I grew up listening to! Definitely the ones to watch in 5th gen

Finally the first reactor that truly see and appreciate their talent and concept. I'm still getting to know them but I've been amazed by the few songs that I've heard so far. So different and fresh and what a better way by doing a well-done mashup of 00's throwbacks! Loving this group!

[@YourLukie]

They are really separating themselves with their artistry ! They keep on serving ! 😍🤩

[@maelt4347]

the song is so good, it's really y2k, cheetah girls vibe, i'm in love. The M/V is perfect, they're so pretty. They sound so good, the throwback to their solo songs in the break down is amazinggggggggg, 10/10

[@Mooyaho90]

It’s giving so many kinds of early 2000s vibes. I get Gwen Stefani rich girl, the pussycat dolls, Brittany, and Cheetah girls vibes. It’s like everything y2k in one mv seriously. The outfits are so gaudy and I love it. I need to see those sparkly outfits in a performance. Like just look at those silver sparkly pants! So pretty😭

[@majuseyo]

they even used the title track of their debut solo song in this comeback song if you guys notice it. they are geniuses!

[@KgTheOctopus]

they definitely hit that early 2000's vibe on the mark! gwen stefani had a song called "spiderwebs" so that scene reminded me of that

[@marklee1270]

thank you for reacting to Kiof 's song

[@kenny4064]

It’s so cheetah girls, Britney, Christina, Gwen, pussycat dolls and BRATZ!! I’m so in love with this comeback KOFL just keep going up from here!!😍😍 this is exactly how you do Y2K I’d take this over cute concepts any day

shoutout to their solo songs mentioned on the bridge, really love this comeback

[@neozone6356]

A lot of comebacks/debuts happened this March-April and I was excited for each of them; waited for teasers and listened to the songs the minute they dropped. Somehow, even tho KIOF may not be the group I looked forward to the most out of all of them, they are the group that have given the best release imo. 👌

[@psyche_26]

this is what happened when you let WOMAN debut, Natty is so Britney Spears here and the whole vibe of song gives late 90's or early 2000's

[@cardcaptortwink]

you were right to say it was giving early 2000s. lady marmalade was released in 2001, it was only uploaded on youtube in 2010.

[@attilakanalas7407]

First of all, it’s like 2007-2010’s for me. The teaser gave me the CHEETAH GIRLS, which is my childhood yk. And when I first watched the M/V teaser I had the same feeling reaction like with IVE-Love Dive. THE BUDGET and the whole mythological think in both of them. FYI, I don’t compare them just I have the same SOTY feeling.

[@rikipaisal9910]

idk but love when kpop bring some fresh melody and flow... like when we heard that we reminisce like we heard this rhytme but back 2000 or at least differen from many song that came up this year or 3 years back

[@Marie45610]

Lady Marmalade came out in 2001. So early 2000s for sure with that. (youtube was created in 2005)

[@TheCutestChris18]

The chorus reminds me of an early 2000's Women's shaving product commercial, Cheetah Girls and or a Bratz theme song! Even the billboard gave me Britney Pepsi commercial. I loved the nostalgic sound and they looked incredible! This will be on repeat!

[@deeppc]

Wow!

[@amnedits4898]

us 2nd Gen fans are so thankful to Kiss of Life for taking us back 🔥🔥

[@Giakovo]

Something about it is also giving me early 2000s JPop like Koda Kumi's Taboo and Juicy. And that guitar automatically takes me to BoA's My Name

[@butterflysdaydream2944]

Btw about all the videos you mentioned that were uploaded 14 years ago. They are actually all early to mid 00s songs, but mvs didnt rly start getting uploaded to yt until 2009

[@theyogurtaisle]

ive been WAITING for a song like this. there are two different vibes when someone says 2000s sound, newjeans has one of them nailed, but ive been BEGGING for a britney spears/cheetah girls/christina aguilera feeling song

[@theyogurtaisle]

THIS is my 2000s sound, diva diva diva

Lady Marmelade mv was remastered 14 years ago, it actually came out in 2001, same as the Moulin Rouge movie...

[@larasatisatyaningrum]

YES I WAS THE SAME! It's been a long time since i was excited for a comeback! I WAS SO HAPPY WHEN I SAW THE MV!! THE ONLY DISAPPOINTING THING IS THE SONG ENDED. I lowkey think if they inserted a small dance break after belle's highnote, It'll be a perfect and longer song

just my opinion, XG and kiss of life are the best gg recently

[@bootsandcats5514]

I want a Chisa-Juria-Belle collaboration! 👑👑👑

[@HenningGu]

Yeah, I was like 😮 throughout the whole song. The people say it's reminding them of early Kpop, which seems to be true from the cursory knowledge I have of that era, but I am more reminded of general pop of that time, and that is something I have nostalgia for. And then came the bridge 🫠

[@mariaaluzdinafustamante4055]

I think they are already defining their style for powerful and pop mini album and singles album styles 2000 or nostalgia and less powerful but just as good

[@peteartieda58]

The instrumental also reminds me of some early 3rd gen kpop.

[@bunhanp]

Don't forget to vote for them in Star-Planet, they have change getting 1st win!!

6:07 14 years ago was when the videos were published on KZbin, not when they were made. 😅 Definitely giving the 2000 vibe.

[@severineseafore]

This song is extremely good, entered my top3 spotify on repeat

[@wednesdayschild9141]

The sound (to ME) is very Darkchild inspired so late 90s to mid 00s. ETA - Also has a New Jack Swing vibe mixed in. - but the look/aesthetic for me feels like the Lady Marmalade collab x Pussycat Dolls with a heavy sprinkling of Bratz. With their own flavour of course. I love this TT and look forward to this era - hopefully it isn't too brief.
