REACTING to ATEEZ - A HELPFUL guide to stanning Ateez by ETINI | FULL VERSION WITH MUSIC

[@AmanoGinju]

At 29:33 it's San himself watching his own video message from the previous year. If I'm not wrong, in every debuting anniversary they will do a video message for themselves in the future and when it comes to the next anniversary they'll watch it. About the reality show that they were filming in Australia, it's called *"ATEEZ : Treasure film"* it's really fun i highly recommend it 😁 And for the song which in Wooyoung part is *"Mist"* one of my most favorite songs from them 💚

[@melaniereacts]

Hahahaha no wonder I thought they looked similar 😂😂 thanks for the info!! Ok I’ll check Treasure Film out!! Yay!! I’ll try not to listen to mist and also save that for a reaction this week 😍😍

[@lan1749]

The song used to introduce Wooyoung is called “Mist” it’s a B-side from their first full length album “Treasure EP: FIN: All To Action”

[@melaniereacts]

Thank you so much!! I’ll save it for a reaction this week 😍

[@brodyskipper2035]

One GG you definitely should check out is Dreamcatcher as they are one of the most unique and underrated groups in the kpop industry. Funnily enough Dreamcatcher and Ateez are both my ult groups and they also share the same producers

[@a_wooodyy]

When you start reacting to their other songs, you should do it in order! Ateez has an insane story line and their discography is amazing. It’ll help you so much if you start from the beginning!! So their main theme is pirates and they have alternate selves in a parallel universe. I’m not gonna spoil too much, but they’re called Halateez. When you see the all black outfits with hats, those are their other selves. In the beginning of the guide when you said it was creepy, and they’re asking “are you good” and “are you evil,” those are the other versions asking about each other.

[@melaniereacts]

This is a great idea! I should start from the beginning. Maybe I’ll react to their albums and I’ll do it in order. Thanks lovely 😍

[@insane_t1605]

KQ fellas is for the groups in training in KQ we have KQ fellas 2 now

[@melaniereacts]

Ahh ok makes sense!! Thank you 😍

[@MingkisWay]

@@melaniereacts and we just got a new trainee recently, so now we have 5 KQ fellas trainees.

[@melaniereacts]

@@MingkisWay how awesome!! Where do you find that info out?? I wouldn’t mind checking them out!

[@DanityKanelvr25]

the reality show in Australia is called 'Treasure Film'! they were given challenges based on their personality and had to go around Australia to complete it. it's soo entertaining, maybe their best reality show out of all the ones they've done so far. it's only 3 episodes on the M2 channel. also for Girl Groups, I like certain songs by groups but the only group that I LOVE is Mamamoo. (they are a little older and Vocal Queensss - you should check them out).

[@melaniereacts]

Thanks for the info!!! I actually forgot about mamamoo! I think I have heard them before and I didn’t mind them. I might look into them more 😍

[@ateezstan]

The very basis of the storyline is that ATEEZ live in a universe where the government banned humans from expressing emotion, creating art, dancing, singing, etc. as a form of control. Their alter egos are the Black Pirates 'Halateez' (named after their song Hala Hala) which are basically a resistance/anarchist group that rebel against the government by performing and encouraging people to gain their emotions back. This is where the central theme of ATEEZ being pirates comes from and this part of the storyline is explained in their Rhythm Ta performance that they did on the mnet show Kingdom! The very beginning of the storyline starts with the album Zero Fever Part 1 and the diary film they made explains how ATEEZ came to be (in relation to the fictional universe) so if you are interested in the storyline you should definitely watch it! There is alot more to the story but if you wanted to dive into it then you should definitely start there. Thank you for the reaction!

[@melaniereacts]

Wow thanks for the explanation! I absolutely LOVE the concept and am definitely interested to learn more 😍

[@dias2957]

You should watch their ep on jessi showterview!! It was really hilarious

[@MingkisWay]

when u asked who gets babied the most, it's DEFINITELY not Jongho 😂. they like to baby him but not as much as others lol. the "baby" position could be shared between Mingi, San, and Wooyoung (imo).

[@melaniereacts]

Mingi???? Omg I would never have guessed that! Only because he is so big and tall and has such a feel voice. Is he like a giant teddy?? 😂😂

[@MingkisWay]

@@melaniereacts hahaha yea alot of non atinys think that way. once u dive deeper into them, u will understand how much of a giant softie he is 😂. he's one of the few that is so tall but can give smol energy lol

[@melaniereacts]

@@MingkisWay I meant to say “deep” voice, not feel voice. But hey his voice does make you feel things 😂😂!! Maybe I can do a video where I react to each member individually, get to know them and their quirks. Do you know any channels that have good videos like this?

[@MingkisWay]

@@melaniereacts I love the channels Nctiny, Mingispingpong, 8makes1octopus, and taeteez. there are a few more but I can't think of them off hand right now. Mingispingpong has the best personality/crack videos while taeteez has more updated videos. 8makes1octopus is more drama than crack and nctiny has alot of KZbin shorts that are straight to the point but "painful/lethal"

[@melaniereacts]

@@MingkisWay ok amaaaazing!!! Thank you so much!

[@elvenmagick9039]

Girl group rec... You might like Dreamcatcher, And Pixy... Dreamcatcher has a rock sound and their composers are the same ones that work with Ateez. Pixy is a rookie gg but reminds me so much of a female version of Ateez. Like you I am not a huge fan of ggs. Another two I would rec is Mamamoo who's older stuff has a old school jazz feel... And Pink Fantasy, another rookie group that has a metal rock feel.

[@melaniereacts]

Ohhh I like the idea of a rock sound! Will definitely check them out. Thank you 😍

[@stanateez1]

Thank u for reacting to our pirates! The song that u love which Wooyoung song is “Mist”

[@melaniereacts]

Ahh it sounds so good! Will try not to listen to it so I can react to it this week 😍

[@misst1847]

So happy you reacted to this thank you so much. and thank you for showing so much love to and support for our boys. ❤

[@melaniereacts]

Aw thanks for this lovely comment 🥰😘

[@PHatiny20]

OMG😲😲 Just got finished watching your first post and this pop up🤗🤗 Thank you for reacting to ATEEZ,I really love your Reaction. I hope you can react to their old show like KQ FELLAZ, CODE NAME ATEEZ, ATEEZ WANTED, ATEEZ TREASURE FILM. As a guide to their Journey 🤗🤗 But just take your time,no need to rush🤗🤗 Thank you and take care🤗🤗 Sending hugs🤗

[@melaniereacts]

Yay I’m so excited that there is so much to react to! Will be sure to get to it all 😍😍

[@Dark0Nytemare]

Hi! This is the second video I've seen of you diving into ATEEZ. I don't want to repeat things that you've already seen, so I'm here to drop album deets instead! As you go through your album/mv journey you'll hit a portion where you'll see Jongho sitting due an ankle accident. You'll also get to a point where there's no Mingi in the stages or MV - he was out once for back injury in 2019, but made a shirt ripping re-appearance in MAMA 2019. Then he was out again due to mental health. KQ let him take his time to handle himself while the rest of the team carried on. He is present in the music! So here we go - Albums in Order [songs that were used for comeback and/or have mvs in brackets songs with * are extra MVs aside from title track[s]] I cannot stress this enough! When you hit the MVs for Treasure Ep2? Make sure you watch the mvs to the very end!] There are also Diary Videos that basically go into the lore for each album, so you could check those out at your leisure! Treasure Ep 1 - All to Zero [Pirate King, Treasure] Treasure Ep 2 - Zero to One[ Say My Name, HALA HALA, Promise* [extra song with MV]] ATEEZ gave ATINY the chance to vote on the song they wanted for comeback title Illusion won - but they still gave us a video for Wave. It's best to watch Illusion first and then Wave. Aurora was the one song that was mentioned for Hongjoong's writing/composing. They made a video for it as a gift! Treasure Ep 3 - One to All [Illusion, Wave, Aurora*, Utopia*, Dancing Like Butterfly Wings -they do have a live stage for dancing with butterfly wings that's beautiful] Treasure Ep. Fin: All to Action - [Wonderland, Mist (the song you were interested in with Wooyoung's section), Win - this performance stage is a must!] Treasure Epilogue: Action to Answer [Answer, Star 1117 (ATINY fan song), Horizon - there are stage performances for these] The Treasure Series Ended. The Fever Series Begins and again ATINY is asked to vote for the comeback title track for part 1 and part 3. Zero: Fever Part 1 [Inception, ThanXX] Zero: Fever Part 2. [Fireworks (I'm the One), Celebrate* -there's a..video?? sorta. just look it up you'll see lol] *ATEEZ was participating in Kingdom Legendary War while promoting for Fireworks + KDrama filming [Imitation] for 4 of the members. I mention this because they incorporated their theme into all of their Kingdom performance. There are elements of those performances that they will incorporate into Fever Epilogue and even in the current release Don't Stop. I'd love to see you check out their performances for Kingdom! Not to mention there are some fun StrayTeez moments along with other talented groups to see!* Zero: Fever Part 3. [Deja Vu, Eternal Sunshine] Zero: Fever Epilogue [Turbulence, The Real] Current extra MV release - Don't Stop I hope this helps! If I missed something I hope ATINY will fill in the blanks! Can't wait to see more!

[@melaniereacts]

You are an absolute angel!! Thank you!! This is SOOOO helpful you have no idea 😍😍😍😍😍😍 thank you thank you thank you 💜

[@Dark0Nytemare]

@@melaniereacts My pleasure! I hope this helps you get started! Oh! And there is one thing, I don't think I've seen anyone mention. Hongjoong's laugh. Just like Mingi tells you to focus when he says "Fix On"? Hongjoong's giggle normally proceeds doom! And it's something familiar throughout their discography. But woe unto Atiny when that laugh texture changes. Again, you'll see 😏

[@melaniereacts]

@@Dark0Nytemare oh really?? I didn’t know that! How fascinating!!! 😍

[@averymilania2953]

Wooyoung and San also have matching amicus ad aras tattoos for their friendship 🥺

[@melaniereacts]

Someone else told me that 🥺 how fricken cute!!!!!!!

[@imjustlucky3076]

Thankyou so much !!! I loved your reaction and this was a very good guide to start on Ateez too ❤︎❤︎

[@melaniereacts]

Thanks so much 🥰

[@fig9461]

I'd recommend Dreamcatcher! "Piri" and "Boca" are both amazing. They have a very different sound than most other girl groups, it's very...rock? "Boca" is part of a three-song connection, alongside "Scream" and "Odd-Eye", I believe. But their choreo is usually so good and meant for big stages. Secondly, Everglow has some fantastic songs. You might enjoy "First" which is a more recent song of theirs. The choreographer for ATEEZ did the choreo for that song, and you can see how similar some of the moves are. It's okay if you don't end up liking them, but if you want to give them a try, I recommend these to start! ❤️

[@melaniereacts]

I reacted to Boca on my first live and did scream on my second live 😍 the second live got taken down by KZbin 😔 but I put it on my patreon. I also did Everglow’s First on my first live stream as well 😍 you can see on my page. So keen to check out more from both groups 🥰

[@bianca-jade6520]

Their storyline is soo deep every if uve seen some videos of ur interested in storylines then I would go from the beginning to even try to understand it. There wasn’t any girl groups I was personally interested in when I first got into KPop but there are some I love now Dreamcatcher - more of a dark rock group (Check out Scream, Boca & odd eye) Itzy ( mafia in the morning, loco, not shy, wannabe ) G idle ( oh my god, lion) Everglow ( first, pirate, la di da)

[@melaniereacts]

A lot of people have mentioned dreamcatcher!! Ok maybe I’ll find a few vids from each group you recommended and do a reaction 🥰

[@lintuchiha]

The only kpop girl groups I love for being different than the rest are Brown Eyed Girls and Dreamcatcher, so I recommend them.

[@melaniereacts]

Thanks for the recommendation 😍

[@zandelion1809]

For me personally I don't gravitate towards girl groups but the one exception is Everglow. I would recommend watching their song "First". I think the choreography for that music video was choreographed by Ateez's Choreographer🧡

[@melaniereacts]

A lot of people have said everglow! I’ll check them out 😍

[@isabelacosta6644]

If you want to start girl groups I think it’s a good ideia to start with Mamamoo. They are really vocal queens and their sound is really versatile! You can check out “egotistic” “starry night” “dingga” and maybe a live performance of “I miss you” , that would be really good 😊

[@melaniereacts]

I just reacted to one of their songs on my live 😍😍 I neeeeed to see more!!

[@isabelacosta6644]

@@melaniereacts Nice! I’ll definitely check it out

[@Kira_K.]

Thank you for your Ateez guide reaction❤️ It would be great if you could react to more of their content and songs like Answer, Utopia (MV), Inception or Deja Vu. New subscriber here 😊

[@melaniereacts]

I definitely will! I’m thinking of reacting to their albums one by one (from beginning to now)! 😍

[@PHatiny20]

ATEEZ Storyline is so long🤗 So here's what Doris Manu in Quora said: Do Ateez have a storyline? If so, can you briefly explain it? "They do have a storyline. They’ve revealed that there is some kind of connection and story an interview i know they 100% said so was in DKDKTV’s interview. Anyways here is the short overall story: Ateez means A TEENager Z, they are the beginning and end of the most important period of a teenagers life. Their concept is of pirates that seek on a journey to find their treasure. But the story itself is not as simple as random pirates. There are 2 sides dark and light and everything in between. Here is a more in depth explanation and breakdown of their story: Mingi is the authority figure in the dark side and Wooyoung is his right-hand man. Hongjoong is not apart of the light side but he wants to take over the dark side and at the same time he asks the others to join him. His character represents danger as he wants his own crew and wants to do something else than find the “treasure”. The trumpet we always see represents authority which both mingi and hongjoong want. Hongjoong as the story continues pretends to obey mingi even though he still wants to take over. In Hala Hala it’s about them entering the dark side. Seonghwa is exited about joking the dark side. In Hala Hala San and Jongho are connected. Jongho talks about the light while San talks about joining the dark. In all title track they are conflicting between the two sides, but stay together to be successful. Basically Jongho and San believe in different sides but what is bigger to them is that Ateez need to stay together in order to find the treasure and keep harmony. However a betrayal happens in Say my Name which is represented with the shattered mirrors around San. In Say my Name, Yeosang is in a shining glass prison not wearing his dark side outfits. But outside the dark sing Wooyoung is looking at him like a prey. This means the Yeosang is the only one from the light side and he has a connection with the treasure as in Wonderland photos he has the key necklace. Yeosang then accepts the dark side saying maybe this is destiny. Yeosang is watchman and has binoculars which enables him to see the route to the treasure. Illusion and Wave are about how they fail to find the treasure and try again. Yeosang probably did this purposely since he still doesn’t accept the dark side. Yunho is now important as he is the most desperate and the one trying to get out of this light and dark situation, hence him being surrounded with research papers. After Yeosang becames apart of the dark he says “please don’t let me go” which means he was the last in the light. Later he joins the dark but doesn’t let it overtake him. In Say My name he throws away the papers he was using to find solutions which show his first surrender but it’s not over for him. After Wonderland it’s important to know wether they were inspired by the book or the movie as they have differences that matter. But it is sure that Yunho is the white rabbit. In treasure film ep.2 he wore that blue sweater with the rabbit. This means that he is trying really hard to achieve his goal before it’s too late and perhaps save everyone. The dark side is too strong and so Yunho surrenders (Wonderland teaser). Yeosang and Yunho know the most about the treasure which is why Yunho tries to persuade Yeosang to not leave him. Seonghwa is the most neutral and calm character. Seonghwa join the dark side without resistance and says how much he likes his new identity. Wooyoung lights a match in Illusion, while in Wonderland teaser Seonghwa blows a match, stopping a possible terrible destruction. I got this all from an Amino post, There is more after this but I can’t remember it all. I found the post and here is the link: Redirect Notice I hope after you read the rest and how it all ties together, that you can use this as the base and understand and interpret more of the story in Thanxx and Inception. If you don’t understand it by yourself their are a lot of youtube videos breaking it all down. I hope this was helpful if you read all the way down here."

[@melaniereacts]

Wow this was SO helpful! I am going to read into it more today 😍

[@phoebegracetorres2265]

San is their main performer and lead vocalist if ateez btw

[@chimchimbiasedwreckedbyjin4056]

I relate to the girl groups I feel while I may like one song or two there is no girl groups I Stan like boy groups. There are a couple that I can say I am a fan of ( meaning I at least like 1 whole album aside from a couple songs) like twice, mamamoo, and red velvet those are the only ones like I do have other gg song on my playlist but whenever I looked into their albums for the most part I only like the title track or 1-2 other tracks. With boy groups I Stan or a fan of I like most of the songs aside from 1 or 2. But those three I mentioned I feel are the best as well as gidle who I have been into recently.

[@Cyaniidest]

mamamoo is my favourite girl group, you might like them! 16:17

[@phoebegracetorres2265]

Yesss

[@Nieves.08]

ahora me veré todos tus videos JAJAJAJAJ

[@melaniereacts]

THANK YOU 💜

[@sanichigo7628]

The babiest of them is SAN if I am not mistaken he is the cutie fairy of the group not on stage actually bc you know the duality

[@melaniereacts]

YES!!!! On stage he is a TOTALLY different person but such a soft marshmallow off stage 😭

[@doram9542]

thank you for reacting to ateez🥺💚 have ever listen mamamoo? they are only girl group I stan I think you will like them💚

[@mikwons]

if you're looking for girl groups that you'd enjoy i think you'd possibly like pixy? i'm not generally a big fan of girl groups but their concept and music are incredible

[@melaniereacts]

I’m definitely interested in giving girl groups a chance! I’d love to find one I like so I’ll check pixy out 🥰

[@saharzndi3804]

About gg. Dreamcatcher are amazinggg. No super big. But amazing.

[@kellyswatt2514]

Melanie, have you seen this video where they give some hints to storyline starting near 46 minute mark (in between performances)? kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5e9fnt_bNSLhs0

[@kellyswatt2514]

Plus, San’s abs the whole 1.5 hours

[@averymilania2953]

The only girl group that I like is PIXY, they remind of a female ATEEZ with their energy and ambitions and personalities a lot, I get what you mean though I find them hard to get into

[@melaniereacts]

Ohhhh ok 😍😍

[@noisygemini]

Honestly I don't like girl groups neither. I've been listening to kpop for a decade and there's just 1 girl group that I liked but I was 15 back then. Their name is F(x). Other than them... Maybe Mamamoo. Their music is not my style but they have such an amazing talent. Like... Wow. I love their voices.

[@melaniereacts]

Yeah I just feel like the groups could give so much more but it’s just lacking something. I have seen Mamamoo, and yeah agree their voices are amazing 😍

[@wooyoung-ng1qe]

iam with u i do not like girls group too heheheh

[@melaniereacts]

I’m trying to find one I like 😩

[@shannonbarlow7205]

I was never really into ggs until recently but then dreamcatcher, everglow and mamamoo got me hooked, they're probably the only ones where I like more than 1 or 2 songs I find them unique

[@melaniereacts]

I feel like these three groups are who most people have been recommending! I’ll have to check them out!
