Reacting to NCT U/2021 'Universe (Let's Play Ball) & 'Beautiful' MVs! (FINALLY)!

[@Emily_fanai]

14:17 I'm sorry,this is an inspirational song,it's beautiful and so is this guy It's okay Austin...I feel you 😭😭

[@herongiii5141]

Yasss that's Xiaojun, WayV's main vocal. He literally slayed this album (hope you can react to the album if you have time). Also, WayV week YESSSS!!!

[@bryarmaputi5856]

WayV is a cool unit They have their own color & music style That's why NCT is Absolutely one of a kind group

[@mashedpotato001]

Shotaro IS a dancer--he learned dancing since he was 5, went to EXPG Studio which is a famous dance school in Japan and worked as a back-up dancer for Japanese artists such as EXILE and GACKT. He was actually popular in TikTok and quite had the following with his dancing videos. Shotaro was a NCTzen too! He watched one of their concerts and did NCT dance covers on TikTok as well.

[@c00lmarsha54]

Both haechan and Mark had a very long year with 5-6 comebacks but they did really well with sticker ,hot sauce and universe 👏

[@babylionssirenblack1595]

True plus count SuperM activities for Mark. So yeah

[@ellizkim5231]

As a xiaojun stan, yess hes amazing. You should check more wayv stuff cuz they also have an amazing discography

[@jlvv_1]

The fact that Xiaojun's visual is so striking while in fact he's such a baby, awkward king, a softie and quick to anger 😂😍😂 I'm glad everytime he's in NCT U he gets more recognitions~~ and Yes Hendery is gorgeous too. Ah my chinese boys' visual are out of this world~ Yangyang's so underrated too.. He's one of NCT's best rappers in my opinion..

[@hannakatriina]

Yes to WayV week! I'm becoming such a Xiaojun stan too, lol. His vocals AND his visuals are just stunning. I like Beautiful, it really made me smile (and cry a little, haha), but I definitely prefer Let's Play Ball. Such a bop!

[@sharanya4914]

the rap parts in beautiful was written by Hendery, Johnny, Jeno, mark and Taeyong

[@Light-bu8yn]

I'm so excited for WayV week!!! Xiaojun's vocals are really great and can't wait to see you loving and adoring Winwin just like how your two 127 biases (Yuta and Taeil) adore him soooooo much.

[@emilyc1263]

Xiaojun is a star. I love it when he’s in NCT U, because people can’t help but start to pay attention to him. He’s always outstanding, charismatic, talented, loving, there’s just something about him that pulls you in. Keep in mind, he’s my ult and the reason why I became a WayZenNi and Nctzen in the first place, so I am pretty biased 🤣 but I’m so glad you noticed him more than once. So HELL YEAH for a WayV week, their discography is immaculate, their first full album (Awaken the World) is a no skip album. They’re freaking talented, you won’t regret it 💚 also, they’re known as the thirst unit, so… expect some hoe anthems lol

[@mags-erizen1485]

Can't wait for WayV week. Also beautiful was written by mark, taeyong, hendery, Jeno and Johnny (I think only the rap verse)

[@dandanie5821]

Xiaojun stealing the show.

[@dae2572]

Yes he's Xiaojun! My ultimate bias in WayV and in NCT as a whole.. Thank you for noticing him sir Austin.. WayV is actually a cool sub unit of NCT..

[@meiiajynnlayones694]

The hand movement on the mv beautiful symbolize like an intimate pat on the head like we would do to some one while saying "chareso 😉" or you did good/great! or you are doing good/great!

[@wangnan_88vv23]

Yes,I feel you, xiaojun is beautiful and his vocal is amazing , can't wait to see your reaction to wayv.

[@wayvmiracleenjoyer]

I just know you're gonna love Xiaojun 🥺

[@ze7525]

I'm actually satisfied with the line distribution and screen time with Beautiful for 21 people. Just a little sad bcos WW and LC wasn't there

[@elegantfashion160]

Xiaojun was the yellow hair guy in Make a wish MV. I remember you were attacked by him in that one too lol

[@aqua17]

13:13 thats chenle , and yess hendery can speaks english. Yay xiaojun, my bias

[@El.22]

xiaojun is honestly probably my bias out of all of nct... and i feel like he's criminally underrated!

[@rebeckaroy6790]

Yeah, Mark and Haechan have been incredibly busy and prolific this year and often fans comment about them getting rest.... Honestly though, I mostly feel incredibly proud of them. (I also think they are professional and smart and will get the rest they need as they need it. Plus with no international travel or touring this year, they put their energy into their music.) Plus, Mark wrote his parts of Universe (along with the legend that is Kenzie) so he'll have songwriting rights on it too. :D In fact, Mark wrote raps for 4 songs on the album and he continually impresses me. I also love how Beautiful is shot like a Kdrama. The scenes are something average people in Korea would recognise and see/live every day (and NCT has never done that kind of aesthetic before). It really is reaching out to their audience in their everyday lives in a very special way.

[@MyvIsLove2]

yes, xiaojun is gorgeous! not only his voice but everything about him. you need to get into wayv! hes gonna rush into your heart in a second :) yangyang is also one of my absolute favorites. by the way, as a shawol of over 10 years now, xiaojun immediately reminded me of jonghyun. they have the same facial structure and they are both amazing vocalists and do produce music

[@Jaehyuns_Dimples]

Yes I've been waiting for your reaction!!!! Yeah that is Xiaojun from WayV that boys vocals are no joke and yes you got YangYang and Shotaro right. I absolutely loved Universe first listen. And Beautiful absolutely made me cry hell I broke down in tears as soon as I seen Jaehyun lol.

[@sarahrubia22]

Yay! I'm so excited for WayV week! Xiaojun is my bias, he's so amazing I'm glad he's getting the recognition inside the NCT brand. Universe (Let's Play Ball) is incredible, it's in my head 24/7. Beautiful is cute, but not enough to make me cry, and I'm following them since debut... So I don't know. I just like the song. Thank you for reacting, Sir

[@irregularrx8733]

I see the choreo for the beautiful part as something that was caressing your face just telling that you are beautiful like that

[@ploykkp6499]

Back to nct 2020 i remember that you noticed xiaojun in make a wish you said that you like his voice and he was a main vocalist in WayV and Please react to miracle ,good night and round and round in this album too . I’m sure that you will like him more .his voice is so beautiful and so emotional.

[@theaakm127]

I love how much you love Taeil, it's so cute 😂😍

[@spillthetyong]

The whistling like a sound code to be gather of all NCT member 🥺🤍

[@ayenayen3806]

xiaojun really stands out too much I cant help but stan him 😩

[@gail1015]

I think once you start in on WayV you’re pretty much signing up as a NCTzen for life haha. Looking forward to your foray into WayV. You’ll love them too.

[@oraaaangeeee]

Thinking that they made Beautiful before and the song actually is for NCT U's unit comeback years ago. Beautiful is such a good song and they've made a good decision to release this with the whole group amid the pandemic 🤧

[@karinaneirasyida3579]

I'm team Let's play ball..haha it's so good 🔥🔥🔥 and 100% correct that's Xiao Jun! Plz check Miracle and Dreaming Austin.. and in 13:16 he is Chenle dreamies

[@tzof000]

Xiaojun was really noticeable in this mv , for his vocals he is really amazing and talented and i think i repeated his parts a lot because I can't with his vocal tone. And yeah lucas and winwin weren't participating in this comeback

[@carolina6415]

Xiaojun is amazing, and yes, Hendery is fluent in English.

[@LibertyIndiaRose]

18:43 I saw it as them caressing everyones faces 😂 also yes more WayV is essential! Their discography is no skip, their full album is one of my favourites 👏 also i want a Haechan Xiaojun duet that would be amazing SM needs to make that happen 🙌

[@leehyuckie]

yes WayV week!

[@milyjonasmiller]

Yesssss a wayv week iam a shawol but im falling in love with them

[@henryvinson5352]

Taeil has the most lines in the Universe album. 💚 Mark in 2nd and Haechan in 3rd. Well-deserved. 💯 The whole album is amazing. 👌

[@boosadan28]

in case you missed it Jungwoo and Seungkwan are really good friends. They went out together lots of times.

[@francinekayeenriquez3927]

Yes that's Xiaojun sir, if you want to hear his vocals please listen to My Everything by Xiaojun, Renjun, and Taeil, the main vocal from each unit

[@a_maze_in_kwangya]

Yes that handsome and power house vocal is named XIAOJUN. He's my WayV bias. If in 127 we have Taeil then we have Xiaojun for WayV too!

[@taetoro]

Yess, WayV weeks will be fun, and Xiaojun is beautiful, indeed, the man stole the show~ hope you can also react to the album 😁

[@renpathy]

YES been waiting for you to do more WayV reacts. Please react to some funny moments as well as songs. They're an amazing and very underrated group - their bsides are also amazing.

[@debbiebepe]

lolll sir austin you should rewatch your own reactions of make a wish and kick back! you've said the same thing about xiaojun's voice and his face, you're always taken aback with how beautiful he looks AND sounds! and since you like yuta too i highly recommend you to watch AWSAZ with them both, it's a series where they put two members that are awkward with each other or don't know each other well and make them do a lot of cringe stuff together, it's actually really fun!

[@beccuhhhcpo7536]

YES!! ^

[@MsJoanis98]

Up!

[@nataliah3243]

I don't think the emotional reaction had to do with investment. It's more like the song is basically telling you that you are enough the way you are, and you should take your time to become who you wanna be, and no matter how long it takes, you'll always have the chance to shine. From Home is the emotionally invested one.

[@taengoonim]

From Home is what converted me, that song especially rearranged version, I cried and I wasnt fully invested in them at that time

[@oraaaangeeee]

Nct 2018: Performance Video 2020: 3 NCT U's unit + the release of whole unit MV 2021: 2 title tracks (NCT U Universe Let's Play Ball & Beautiful) Can't wait for the debut of NCT Hollywood & Japan

[@shadowingboxer2653]

I just noticed you're wearing the iconic Why Always Me shirt. Like a couple shirt with your husbandnim Suho. Love it. And yes, Mark is everywhere. He's a potential bias if would stan NCT.

[@Emily_fanai]

Ngl...I haven't seen anyone not smiling while Shotaro said Let's play ball🥺🥺So cuteee 😭💚💚

[@sawamuraei]

Hi Sir Austin! I'm back on your reaction vids and you're one of the few reactors who consistently appreciate Jungwoo's vocals and finally he has a drama ost titled First Step and he sounded incredible, reminiscent to his singing in Beautiful...

[@lycamaeachuela5985]

Thank you i really appreciate how you always pay attention to every members of nct/wayv and I'm hoping and definitely waiting for you to react the whole album of universe istg the songs are all made beautifully and such a masterpiece 🥺💚

[@bethparadela422]

So proud of shotaro (my baby!), glad to see him perform w/ the rest of the guys! Hope to see more of him in 2022

[@cecillepersigas9965]

can't wait for your WayV week.looking forward to it.

Yess.. WayV week Sir Austin.. Will waiting for this 🔥🔥

[@bhashabhattacharjee3232]

Yess looking forward to the WayV week!

[@foooshaali7555]

yeah that was my man my bias xiaojun from wayV and their song love talks is so highly recommended sir

Yes, WayV week and WayV-miracle, Pls..

[@wayvmiracleenjoyer]

WAYV WEEK PLEASE

[@nalalala7584]

Nct always deliver with their duality, universe being another addition to their many twerk anthems ( verse wise and the let’s play ball part )and beautiful catering to the cry babies aka me I’m cry babies🥵 Universe is it, they’re disrespectful all of em

[@jaffraymarin3002]

Yes,Finally the reaction I've been waiting for Hello again Sir I'm Robert🤗

[@Sarah-wf3xv]

I cried first time watching Beautiful.. the lyrics are really touching, I loved hearing this kind of sound as a title track from them 💚

[@Miraiwhitelock]

Some video recommendations for the WayV week! [Rainbow V] TEN X WINWIN Choreography : lovely (Billie Eilish, Khalid). What goes on in WayV's mind Xiaojun'a cover of EXO's song 'For Life' ten and yangyang radiating sibling energy xiaojun's middle child problems wayv and their multilingual problems yangyang ft wayv speaking german WayV is still the most chaotic Nct unit WayV Action figure Performance video Hendery vs Yangyang WayV's nectar live stage NCT Ten Choreography practice Coco Chanel

[@JM-cy3bu]

3:17 that's Chenle (with eyeglasses) I'm so happy that you react again to NCT...don't forget to react NCT U "good night", is like a therapy to my heart...😊😊😊

[@mags-erizen1485]

Just noticed the funny thing is u said u don't know none about wayV members but u got all of them right (XiaoJun, yangyang, hendery, ten) Lucas and winwin u know them already but the only member u missed is Kun, the leader of WayV, suho's clown version to me cuz he often resembles like Suho (not only in appearance, also in personalities like how he taking care of the members and the struggle of being the leader🤭)

[@wayvmiracleenjoyer]

Lmao suho's clown version 💀 but yeah he's definitely SuLay's son

[@Sarah-wf3xv]

finally NCT reaction 🙌💚 thank you ~

[@nuramira5880]

They all shineeeee in this album 🥺 you should checkout the full album sir Austin ✨✨

[@takeoverthemoonV]

Yes to all you said, universe is on repeat but beautiful I'm only hearing it while I watch the video 😜 , and WE NEED A WAYV WEEK LIKE FOR YESTERDAY 😭✨ I'm really looking forward to it 😎💚 my prediction is that you are gonna be wrecked by Kun and of course Xiaojun

[@filipinaamortolo3953]

Even if heavy stormy here in philippines. I was waiting for your reaction of NCT MVs and Yeah! Finally. ✨✨

[@AlinaNegoescuqi]

You're right, that was XiaoJun in Let's play ball.

17:25 Hendery does speak some English but in WayV, Ten and Yangyang are the most fluent in English. They both can actually speak 5 languages, it's insane.
