POET REACTS to STRAY KIDS WANT SO BAD Lyrics

[@Nathalie_Loves_HanJisung_03]

There is something to be said about Han only writing sad love songs up until now, but suddenly when the song has Lee Know on it it’s the cutest love song ever and it warms my heart

[@_kei__la_]

15:57 cosmos flowers are actually LeeKnow’s birth flower)

[@kayepopreactions43]

🥰 Awww! I knew it had to be something! That's extra sweet!

[@damselflyable]

Also, apparently giving someone cosmos means you want to give them the universe, which also ties back to the lyrics "it goes high above the sky into the universe" ❤

[@SakkaraKirax]

I don't know if their relationship is romantic or not, and I don't want to speculate, but I believe them when they call each other soul mates. I remember Hyunjin saying that when he spends time with Lee Know he likes it to be just the two of them, so he has to set Han aside and take his place for a moment. It shows how much Lee Know and Han are always together. They're like chopsticks, as Seungmin said. I think it was Changbin who said that he didn't think Lee Know could live without Han. Whatever the type of relationship they have, it's clear that they rely on each other and care for each other very much, and I'm so glad they have that special person in their lives.

[@candiaki214]

If anyone else said "we are soulmates" called each other pet names and insisted they were getting married backed up by the people around them and some said "don't treat them like a couple" it would be ridiculous.

[@candiaki214]

Stray Kids as a whole tend to be pretty intentional with what they say and portray. Even if I am wrong, accepting them will only further lgbtqia+ rights in korea.

[@kayepopreactions43]

Exactly!!!

[@arti_0325]

when they go on dates, they always say on bubble something along the lines of 'the weather is so nice today' and those photos (except the lipstick one from skz code) are from those dates- it's another small detail that i just love so much

[@damselflyable]

I believe they are a couple and this is their way of telling us without telling us. Like hiding in plain sight! They've actually been telling us for some time now. Han's said multiple times they just need to stamp the papers, he keeps seeking out and answering fan questions about them during concerts when he could just ignore them. Then there's Volcaknow, no one will ever convince me that he didn't write that for Lee Know. And Lee Know saying Han was also his boyfriend during that Racha log when he was talking about his friend, I think was his clever, round about way of saying out loud that Han is his boyfriend. Also I've seen comments about that by KStays who said the translation was a bit off and that what he said about the other guy wasn't that HE IS my boyfriend now but that he is ALMOST LIKE my boyfriend. Also, the word he used can sound a bit like Han Jisung when said quickly (we know our devil bunny likes to use word play and Korean puns) so Han actually replied with "Me?" not "What about me?" (and is why he seemed a bit confused, like he wasn't sure if he was saying the other guy was like his boyfriend or that Han is). Also during that live when a fan asked Lee Know if he liked Han or if Han liked him and he asked them what made them think it was just one sided. And, of course, we have 6+ years of them staring at each other, touching each other and just being chopsticks and a ton of those times they thought they were hidden from the camera or were being sneaky about it. I don't think either of them are the type to just keep doing 'fanservice' for that long if they weren't actually into each other. As we know Lee Know is tsundere and most likely doesn't give an actual fuck about fanservice most of the time. And why would Hannie, with his anxiety, put himself and his mental health at risk from homophobics unless it was for something he felt so strongly about? Anyway, I think Minsung is 💯 real and I'm here for it and will always support them. Love everything about the song, btw, their voices are 🤌 🐰🦫😍💜

[@kayepopreactions43]

Okay I 100% agree about Volcano. Even if the lyrics weren't pretty damn specifically about Lee Know, the cadence of the word "volcano" is WAY to similar to "Lee Minho" and an interesting choice of placeholder word for a love song, even about a fiery, passionate love, if you weren't trying to replace a word that rhymed exactly. I'm with you. I think we're at the point that it's actually rude for anyone to not just take them at their word about their relationship. It isn't like it's a will-they-won't-they or a joke or teasing. They've been pretty casual and serious about it for a while now and it's kinda crossed the line where assuming they AREN'T being serious is kinda homophobic, right?

[@damselflyable]

@@kayepopreactions43 exactly right!

[@almyraleayambao1249]

I'm currently obsessed with going through all reactions for this song and I have watched 2 out of 2 non-Stays go: "are they dating?"

[@arti_0325]

same lmao i saw a non stay who had just reacted to 'all my life' react to this as his 3rd ever skz song and he genuinely thought they were a couple 😭

[@kayepopreactions43]

I mean, how could you not?

[@hanlinoring]

these two soulmates even before debut (as han has said in an interview before) never fail to give stayville a heart attack istg 😭

[@stay0325stray]

cosmos flower is Lee know's birth month flower 🤭and they realease this songs at Oct 14 national I love you day ,idk🫠

[@kayepopreactions43]

OMG I didn't even know if was National I Love You Day that's almost as sweet as.... RELEASING VOLCANO FOR VALENTINE'S DAY :DDDDD

[@KilljoyNisi]

This is such a good video! Love your channel! A couple things that came to my mind: The thing about Minsung which differentiates them from other ships is, that they are reeeaaally bad with fanservice as soon as they are forced. They have such a natural dynamic and as soon as they are "foreced to play Minsung up" they get stiff and all. On the other hand, whenever a Minsung moment happens on camera without planning, it's things like: getting lost in each others eyes, forgetting to speak ("I keep freezing up"), secret handholding, seeking closeness. I almost cringe whenever they do Minsung fanservice, but I wholeheartedly believe there is something between them. I also thought about the lyrics and the "Love is so intuitiv" stood out to me. It reminds me of "Love is Love", knows no gender. (...also putting the picture with the lipstick kinda screams "Fuck gendernorms", but who am I to judge?...) The bit about the cosmos-flowers threw me off the first time hearing it. Because that's just *oddly specific*. We don't know about a story between them that involves these kind of flowers, but we do know, they already had a picnic date in a flowerfield. And I know, everyone thinks "Oh it's because it's Minhos birth flower." I don't know about that. I feel like there is more. But I can't put my finger on it. When Han starts rapping about spending time alone "just the two of us", it's kinda weird isn't it? If you are dating someone it's clear that it would just be the two of you. Maybe I am overanalysing (so what), but it always stands out to people how Han and Minho spend their time alone together more often than not. Going on dates, having movie-dates, they never stop talking, one is always where the other is... It's literally always "just the two of us". Also Han could have said "Oh, we are a romantic drama." but he specifies it as a "romantic comedy movie" and if I've ever seen a romantic comedy duo, it's them. Why would he bring the word "comedy" into a love song if it was just about a random love story. The last thing I want to mention about the lyrics is the "I want to fill the space next to you" (forgot the exact wording, sorry). They seriously are *always* filling the space next to the other. I love the thousands of compilations of Magnet-Minsung, or Minsung Superglue and the memes where everyone is standing or sitting normal and they are jus *always* in each others spaces. Ugh, this comment is getting waaay too long, I am so sorry! I just want to mention a last thing. In the beginning you talked about how the other members are so comfortable with mentioning Minsung dating and all. And in the end you talk about how Changbin and Minho fight over Hyunjin. There was this one moment at a concert, where Changbin and Minho were fighting over Hyunjin and... how Changbin said "Minho get lost, you are Hannies" killed me. It just killed me. I think I forgot how to function for a couple of business days. ... I'll stop now. I am so sorry, omg.

[@arti_0325]

i totally agree with the fanservice bit, i never understand why people say all of minsung's interactions and cute moments are fanservice when they've been acting like this together since predebut when they didn't even have any fans if anything, now they have more fans and more expectations for fanservice they stopped being so aggressively affectionate (eg in their old lives with only

[@arti_0325]

with the cosmos flowers, not only are they the october birth flower, but also known as 'love flowers' giving someone them is seen as the equivalent of gifting them the universe jisung loves flowers too and cosmos are such a specific and unknown flower that it couldn't have been a coincidence there are loads of 2 syllable flower names but he had to choose cosmos

[@arti_0325]

it being released on international 'i love you' day too- it's such a perfect detail and its han's first ever happy love song he's released also, jisung always goes straight to bubble after his records are released to talk about the meaning and inspiration behind them, it's been hours and still nothing (as of when i'm writing this) idk it's probably just bc he's busy/forgot but i find it slightly suspicious how the first minsung duet was released and he hasn't said anything about it it's almost as if he doesn't care how stay interpret it or if we think its about something it isn't about clearly if he was worried about us shipping them he would've said that it was inspired by a kdrama/anime immediately, like he usually does, but this time nothing i think he wants us to reach our own conclusions instead of outright telling us, which is why i think it has a deeper meaning and it is actually about them

[@kayepopreactions43]

OMG Don't apologize! I love the long comment! :D I think you're so right about all of it. And the Magnet-Minsung moments seriously could restart my cold dead heart sometimes they're so cute and also ridiculous. Like, if they were trying to hide it or it wasn't a thing, they could just sit on a bench normally, but instead there's an entire bench and they're scrunched up beside one another. I'm weak for that. XD

[@kayepopreactions43]

They have been weirdly quiet about it, huh? The only thing that makes me worry about that is that I hope they aren't getting in trouble for it. As long as they aren't getting in trouble, they don't need to say any more. It was pretty loud and clear already. :)

[@n2sunset]

Cosmos flowers meaning"purity and faithfulness in romantic love"

[@kayepopreactions43]

:O Okay that is extra sweet!

[@lyngoodie986]

Cosmos flowers are Lee Know's birth flower and I really don't want to speculate their relationship cuz frankly its none of our business. Fun tidbit I found while looking for their flower meaning; 'In addition to being one of two October birth flowers, cosmos flowers are also the traditional flower of a second wedding anniversary. Once the honeymoon period is over, married couples may find themselves falling into a nice, orderly routine, and being in perfect harmony with one another. [..] It’s said to mean “I love you more than anyone could”, and smells like sugar!'

[@arti_0325]

i've already seen multiple 'stays' saying that they're gonna leave stayville if minsung are ever confirmed to be dating, i never thought there would be homophobic stays but its so sad that there are :(( i've also seen a few non-stays who have found out about skz through the all my life remix and reacted to this as their 2nd/3rd skz song and they all immediately said 'oh so they're a couple' or 'this must be a love song about their relationship' lmaooo, which yeah if you listen to it with no knowledge of the group and just see those photos and the lyrics you're obviously gonna think they're dating

[@DaddiesLittlePsycho]

I say let them leave, as sad as that makes me, they dont deserve the kids. That said, I DEFINITELY think that, if it IS true and they ARE together (I do 100% think so, just saying, my opinion) that this is the whole reason they are doing it the way they are. Its seems, to me, that they WANT us to know, but they either can't have or don't want the company to declare it. Because then all the hell will come down on them regarding the sheer amount of people, both in Korea who are of course against if, people whom aren't even fans and sre in fact OTHER fandoms fans just because they can't miss an opportunity to take down another group, and of course... many of our very own. At the end of the day, you gotta admit, the sheer number of fans that we have seen purposefully seek out Minsung ship clips JUST to denounce them by decaring tuings to be normal that are in fsct NORMAL and are clearly in no way why people think what they think. These people just want them to not be together, so they are trying to convince others they aren't. And now that its getting harder to do that, they are simply threatening to leave. Some people will do anything to stop same sex love form existing even though it affects them or their relationship with their God in any way. Declaring that they are trying to save them. And honestly, I'm done with it. I truly feel heartbroken if what I know to be happening here really is. If these two are simply trying to tell us, without LITERALLY Telling the whole world that, eithout a doubt, they are. It's like they are trying to EASE us into it, over the course of many years and in little, but constantly growing, both In number and in bravery. Until they have perhaps weeded out any of the obvious "ewe a guy touched a guy!" Homophobic "fans" and are only left with the deeply routed "Thia just better be weird friendship " people. Because those ones will convince themselves of anything, and at least they will be able to be more themselves. I guess now we are just left with how they decide to go from here. Will they just keep getting more obvious until little by little all the haters are gone and they are basically out in the open, but never actually declared, at least HOPEFULLY saving them from the wrath of outside parties who can convince themselves of it being otherwise as well, will they stay at relatively the same point? Or, when they feel they are nearing the groups military time, or perhaps just free they are famous enough that their accepting fandom will be there still, amd be enough that, no matter how far it causes them to fall, they will still at least be ok. And just stand against the hate.... I don't know, and I couldn't possibly say which I would prefer because that definitely feels wrong to do, because whatever they want is what I prefer. Of course, I would SELFISHLY prefer if everyone would just mind their own business is the kids business in any way bothers them, and either not be their fan or at least accept that they are different people amd that they don't HAVE to agree on such things, that doesn't mean they have a right to force them to, hurt them over, or anything else. Yes, they have the right to leave the fandom, despite how gross I find that to be it is their right. Bit honestly, we know that people would come for them over it. So , I just hope that, IF they really are (🙄 I wouldn't miss saying that) i mean, I jsut hope that they continue to have it Benifit their happiness far more than it contributes to their sadmess. And, perhaps, that anyone... from those who find it "disgusting" all the way to those who thinks that they have a right to force anyone to be or not to be any way that is not PHYSICALLY hindering THEIR ability to live THEIR everyday life, or impeding THEIR rights to be who THEY are, say what THEY want, or do what THEY want within the bounds of the law. You know, everything that THEY would be doing to SkZ... I hope they are able to dislodge that massive stick they have managed go get that far up where the sun dont shine, maybe then they would be able to relax (pretty sure thats why people like that sit up so straight) and stop trying to shove their way down everyones theoat like they claim those who want to be treated equally do....which, if you ask me, just proves that at least THEY are being treated equally by the lgtbq community. Lol As for those who just downright refuse to be human, well, I feel bad for them, they somehow got that stick in horizontally and... well, they are a lost cause, just like the stick. And all I can say is I hope they too eventually go extinct. I have to believe that millennial aren't raising too many of those jerks,cand their kids even fewer. But for now... it just sucks.

[@Ateezkpoplife]

@@DaddiesLittlePsycho You’re so damn right bro… I’d support them no matter what whether dating or not dating… I’m selfish to want them to confirm their relationship but i don’t want them to because of fans and ya know in the lyrics (not a lot of people paid attention to it). "Push and pull, one mistake and it’s all over oh" I feel like there is so much meaning to this (I can’t be the only one right?) when they sing this part, I take it that they’re restrict in a way (cuz it’s true) to embrace whatever the connection they have?

[@kayepopreactions43]

It's honestly shocking for anyone to be that openly homophobic and also into Stray Kids. That I can't wrap my mind around...

[@Bambomany]

I don’t think there are cultural differences in those lyrics, the melody is sweet but the lyrics are very serious...this is all Han and Leekno

[@miroh8]

18:05 i had the same exact thought lol. in an older clip, he even said he had to ask seungmin who LK was because he was so handsome 😆

[@kayepopreactions43]

LOL! It's honestly one of my favorite stories they've told. XD Such a KDrama moment!!

[@edaedovald2268]

I'm just happy that they seem to be happy and genuinely content about this song themselves, as far as I can tell from the song itself - because it just emanates pure happiness and love I saw someone comment under some other video that they 'want what they have, no matter what it is they have', and I have to agree. It is absolutley 100% their own business, but if this is really their way of confirming things, then hey - I cannot complain. Personally I hate making assumptions, but it's more than fair enough to call them soulmates, which they absolutely are. Also, yeah - how come as soon as Han gets Lino to sing with him, the vibe does a 180? 🧐 Long story short - I love this song, it's been in my mind the entire day and I will keep listening to it forever!

[@rugr82day]

Yeah the whole group is touchy compared to guys in the West but I talked to Korean Stay who said they ship them as a couple too. Some call them Squirrel and Bundle. Definitely to me it's the way the other members treat them like a couple. Also those last few Maniac tour concerts Han did not look like he was joking in any of the videos where he pointed at Lee Know whenever anyone asked him who he was dating or married to. 🤷🏽‍♀️👍🏽🙂

[@mishad6161]

i instantly thought the same things as you!!! these two are so sweet honestly... also, any updates from your friends 🤭? i'm curious to know what they think

[@kayepopreactions43]

LOL It was such a range. XD Anywhere from "Nice!" to "Do you know what queerbaiting means?" but only a few of them even know who Stray Kids are, so I was expecting a mix of reactions. XD I will say that the only friend who both knows about Stray Kids and is queer was excited when I sent it. :)

[@mishad6161]

@@kayepopreactions43 honestly, i hadn't considered what it might be like to look at this from a non-queer person's perspective LOL for me it felt pretty out there also i'm curious that they brought up queer-baiting... maybe i'm biased because i'm a fan, but i don't think skz would ever queerbait through music ykwim? art is their art and expression so i really can't see it happenng!! although it's interesting to hear different reactions. thank you!!!
