Reacting to "Um Oh Ah Yeh & 1CM Taller Than You" by Mamamoo

[@HwasaSupremacy]

Mamamoo is weird but their CEO is even weirder cause he supports them when releasing these kind of songs and I love it, Hwasa wrote a whole song about her Pink Panties (it also has an MV) Wheein and Solar were also improvising once and joking about how they can never sleep well and they have to sleep in the car and he suggested make that into a song so there’s a song about that too 🤣

[@nicoler5713]

Pink Panty wasn't put in an album, but it did have an MV! It's a parody/cover of Blurred Lines so I don't think they'd be allowed to put in on an album, really.

He doesn't just support them in releasing songs like this, he writes/co-writes them!

[@anto_ac3917]

1cm history: Mamamoo was goofying about their stature and Ceo said "let's make a song!!!" Akkdkfj. Just like "Sleep in the car" and "AZE GAG" is full of mamamoo jokes. Even in their concert they have a story about mamamo fighting fot their heigh.

[@whiteradish2285]

Height is just a big deal in Mamamoo only. 'Cause their height's gap is actually 1 cm. Approximately, Byul is 161.8 but they consider it as 161. Solar is 160, Hwasa is 159 and Wheein's height is 158. Their height in google searches is actually wrong😂 And yeah their songs in 2015-2017 are almost like that except Decalcomanie era. They are known for their beagleness/live vocals/adlibs on stages. Their songs are so relatable and always in trend that's why they are so popular in Korea that time. They "kinda" change their concept/genre (well, they always try different genres and i love it lmao) in 2018, the 4 seasons era (but they're still funny and crackheads). And now, 2020, I think they will try new genre and different concept. They're killing all genres tbh😂

[@mariekim1912]

Comparing heights is actually quite common in korean culture though lol

[@yoru101]

Also, they're all shorter than the "standard" Korean height for K-Pop idols. Looking at them stand next to others is too cute, they look smol. But that's Mamamoo, always breaking Korean standards lol. That said, I'm as tall as them so...

[@cec8520]

I thought moonbyul was like 162 or 163? And then solar 161, and hwasa and wheein following with 160 and 159

[@yoru101]

@@cec8520 According to the music video, yes. Moonbyul is 163. The 160 I guess is the average height between all of them with only 1cm difference between each of them. Moonbyul arguing it's 1.8 between her and Solar

[@mounemuii]

No in the music video Byul is 162.8 and Solar is 161 hence the 1.8cm different

As a fellow Jessi Stan I think you'll appreciate this. The part in 1CM with Solar in the baseball cap she is actually doing a parody of a famous scene of Jessi in Unpretty Rapstar. Also here's a link to them doing a full parody of that season of Unpretty Rapstar with Solar playing as Jessi kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2mkYoCtjbifj80

[@kalaksed]

aw, jjingjjing she was solar's salt and pepper terrier that's been with her for 18 years. sadly, she passed away last year. but she was immortalized in both "taller than you" and "my hometown" music videos. you already know about moonbyul's corgis and wheein's boyfriend/cat, so now know about solar's dog. the three used to talk about their pets at random times, as pet owners do. poor hwasa is allergic to fur so can't have a regular pet (the girls have also said she shouldn't have a not regular pet) so she has stuffed animals she treats as pets and talks about when the others bring theirs up. the most famous of these is lion (sometimes called ryan), a huge stuffed lion she's had for years. she's also got a tiny sleeping stuffed kitty a fan gave her and, more recently, the dog seen in her "watermelon sugar" cover

[@kalaksed]

funny that you mention the 'oh, you're a woman?' could have been taken as problematic or as an lgbt anthem...because it's been both at once 'edgy' kpop fans and others like to try to use it as 'look, mamamoo is homophobic' (and some actually do use it as a homophobic anthem), esp in recent years. but when the song was released it was wholly embraced by south korea's gay community. mamamoo was already kind of a favorite but this song and mv just cemented them in that position and their songs (esp this one) get played at every korean pride rally around the country. the girls themselves are huge supporters of the community, as well, both in big ways and small (i wouldn't be surprised if someone sends you a link to a thread about that on twitter, if they haven't already) i'm surprised kudgeon isn't here yet, with his usual dissertation on "uoay", but a small sample is 'what if girls did the crazy 'boys will be boys' things that men often get away with'. as a kind of light-hearted poking fun at them, while also going "why do they get away with this?" the various characters the three play even have their own names, and there were a few teasers released of them going around doing 'typical' male things... both hilarious. one had the three go into a men's locker room together (with the members of vromance and some other rbw artists in it), the other had byul and hwasa trying to pick a girl up. their characters: moonbyul as yul, wheein as kuku, hwasa as ricky. kuku is also the name of a rice cooker brand, so became part of the reason the 'wheebyul' pairing got known as 'cooking line'. wheein's character is a rice cooker, moonbyul's head shape is supposed to remind people of a grain of rice... so, rice grain + rice cooker = cooking line pretty much every live performance of this song (and there are a lot of them!) is golden, as the girls constantly change the adlibs at several points, sculpting them to fit the locations they're at, audiences or the like. there are compilations of these adlibs, as well as compilations of those they've done for several other songs. these everchanging adlibs are one of the reasons they've been so popular at music festivals, esp college ones, since they forever called out the individual festival while performing at it (during one interview years ago, some festival promoters said mamamoo was the second-most requested act for college festivals because of their adlibs and just generally having fun together on stage. only psy beat them out for number of requests) there are definitely some lives worth mentioning individually, though: show champion episode 154 had a part swap, where solar and wheein split moonbyul's rap and byul sang instead (the adlibs for this were golden, too, as they pointed that out. "rapper solar, oh yes!, vocal moonbyul, oh yes!, rapper wheein! hwasa, you do both?" inkigayo 20150621 (that's a date) had moonbyul and hwasa show up as their alter egos for part of the performance, which still surprises many fans who wonder how they changed so quickly live (hint: they didn't) they also filmed an acapella video for the song (a short version) and then wound up doing a live performance of that (with the mv as the backtrack) at a.m.n. 2015 (the behind the scenes for that acapella video are... well, worth watching. it was done on hwasa's birthday and the girls usually try to prank each other on their birthdays)

[@gogojojo2718]

You will love mamamoo's Dont Be Happy. It's a predebut song but that song is what made me stan them : )

[@4queensmamamoo148]

Well, if I'm not wrong, people mocked their jazzy-retro songs like Mr. Ambiguous and Piano Man bc they viewed it as too old (the songs). So MMM made more goofier songs to show their young energetic fun side . What you saw in Um Oh Ah Yeh are not Hwasa, Wheein, and Moonbyul. But Rocky, Kuku, and Yul 😂 the shocking funnier part bout the song that RBW used scandal to promote the song, bc there're lots of articles found out photos about Solar on a date with someone who look like Xiumin, but it's actually Moonbyul. Even in a photo they looked like they were kissing lol. Fun time . The order of their height, tallest to shortest: Moonbyul, Solar, Hwasa, Wheein. But compare them to other idols, they are SMOLL . In SK, their height are average. But for idols they were short bc most agencies & labels not only searched people with singing and dancing talent, but from their physical features, such as face, weight, and height. Hwasa was rejected by most companies bc of her skin and body type, and Moonbyul was kicked from her prev group and company bc she couldn't maintain her weight. It made them depressed a lot. Even it made Moonbyul obsessed with diet, as you can see how thin she was in their early days, esp UOAY. Now they are stronger with people supporting them. Wheein is also gain some weight lately. I think only Solar who could easily maintain her weight bc she loved doing sport (i.e pole dance) and ate healthy foods. Every time they had comeback, they had diet tho. But in healthy way. After that they ate a lot bc they were foodie, esp Solar and Hwasa. Wheein loves snacks, and Moonbyul loves Tanghulu. . BUT actually people didn't comment much bout their height tho. But it's important for them bc they love to diss each other's height till now. I. e 1 cm Taller Than You was created. If you watch MMMTV and Moo's Travel (if I'm not wrong), they mocked each other's height, esp Wheein who was the smollest

[@dehuntr9908]

Yeah it's kinda tricky btw to find their older songs. When you search it on youtube, it's mostly uploaded by 3rd party music distributor such as Stone Music or 1theK channel.

[@lizjocano7436]

ahaha I love Um Oh Ah Yeh. Moonbyul is Yul. Wheein is Kuku. Hwasa is Riki. They have short vids going to the men's bathroom and picking up girls. The most controversial one is Solar and Moonbyul. The tabloid thought Solar is dating a guy. Moonsun ship is born. AHAHAHA Taller than you. it's a B-side song. ehehehe The dog was Salor's JingJing. She died and Solar didn't get any dog since then. They have short skit on this during their concert with animation and all. ehehehe Another crack song is Sleep in the Car, heavy rapping. Based on Solar's and Wheein's complain (during that Taller than you MV Behind) about sleeping with their make up on. We need crack songs from Mamamoo, anti -stress reliever. :)

"we make this into a song too" - Wheein 😂

[@evuie]

i just wanted to point out the "slipping something into the drink" part in UOAY was actually to get Hwasa's character (Ricky) off her, Byul just grabbed it by mistake but its reasonable a lot of people have some questions about that part. What I love about the song tho is that they're still singing about how they're attracted to the other person even after revealing Byul is in fact a woman. It's lighthearted and silly but quite a few people take the MV the wrong way for sure

[@kudgeond755]

I thought it was a variation on MMM's Hip but I was just seeing the world thru radish eyes. 🙄 UOAH is indeed an lgbtq anthem. Finally a reactor was honest and pointed out some of the "problematic" parts that demand an explanation. Everyone seems to laugh it off as MMM being crackheads as usual but imo if you miss the send up of male misbehavior then you miss the satiric intent of the MV. I think the MV takes its cue from the lyrics about a woman who flips the script and goes after the guy and is the aggressor in the relationship to ask the question What if women misbehaved like men? In addition to the scenes of sexual harassment and slipping a Mickey into the drink, the dance scenes in a public men's room and a barber shop need to be accounted for, which I take to be MMM's way of indicating that they're invading male spaces, besides impersonating men by cross-dressing. And while they were cross-dressing they added the bonus question What if you thought you were straight but you fell for someone of the same gender? It's an SNL skit meets Twelfth Night via mischievous beagles with a sly, subversive sense of humor. It's a farce but there's a method and a point to their madness. Rofl when you asked whether height was an issue in Korea. Not really, but it is in Mamamoo. 🤣 They're all short, ranging from about 5'2" to 5'4" and they're each about 1 CM apart from each other. But of course that doesn't stop them from trolling Wheein for being the shortest munchkin in the bunch or from writing a song about the mini-issue of being a mini. Wheein got her revenge in hilarious skits during their 4 Seasons concerts in 2018 & 19. Maybe you can guess - what are the two ways she could become the tallest member? Find the 1 CM skits on yt when you need a laugh.

[@JZHassan]

1CM (Taller than you) is in a league of its own. Honestly couldn't wait to see this reaction. Edit: I'm allergic to Twitter, but I'd love to see you do some vocal coach reactions to Bol4/Bolbbalgan4, a girl duo. Their live performances on sketchbook are great!

[@kalaksed]

sadly, sketchbook is... sketchy for reactors. it and immortal songs are both owned by kbs, which is well-known for random copyright blocks and strikes. which is sad because both are absolutely amazing music programs also, did not expect to see a df dorf comment on something kpop related. figured the overlap between those two would be miniscule

[@JZHassan]

@@kalaksed I dunno, both are awesome so it makes sense to me haha. But I never knew sketchbook was that troublesome for reactors. Guess that's why you hardly see any reactions to them. Sucks because sketchbook is so good!

[@kalaksed]

@@JZHassan yeah, it really does suck because sketchbook has the best quality audio i've heard from a tv program anywhere and they always have such great talent on it. plus, the host is a musician himself so manages to get some good info across even usually keeping things lighthearted and ensuring the guests are comfortable. plus i love he seems like a proud father every time mamamoo is on the show i've seen several reactors post reactions to sketchbook performance then get hit with a strike for it. at least one lost their channel for it so i've been cautious about suggesting the show since. again, it's super unfortunate and on df, i'm both looking forward to and kind of dreading the upcoming steam/graphic release. the dread is mostly because of what it might mean to my tiny self-made mods since i'm in no way an artist

[@moongint]

No matter who reacts to Um Oh Ah Yeh music video the question is always the same: What is happening?

[@rachelgamez3519]

Mamamoo company (RBW) had some restructuring since the beginning. So earlier songs are on different company website (Stone). UOAY was (I think) received well by LGBTQ ( because there are so little such contents in KPOP to begin with). Background info on Korean culture: they prefer tall, small head and long legs. So, if someone is taller than you and brags, you might bring that other person down by pointing out her big head or long torso(=short legs) proportional to her height.

[@rachelgamez3519]

I am typing as I am listening to your reaction. Mamamoo has different musical phases and for that reason I was commenting earlier for you to react to more mvs. It is kind of like a rainbow. You reacted to red (piano man) and purple (hip), and today to orange(uoay). Still missing, bunch of colors in the middle. ;)

[@kalaksed]

oh yeah was uoay well recieved by the lgbtq+ community. that song is blasted at pretty much every korean pride rally ever (along with a fair number of other mamamoo songs, but those vary. this one is always there)

Also, the dog in the mv is Solar's dog, Jingjing, who has since passed away. TT

Plus they nail every concept no matter what! 😂 Anyhow, just to answer some of your questions.. Um Oh Ah Yeh is actually well accepted when it was released. It's one of the songs that started mamamoo's growing fame back then so it's all good 😂 as for the Taller Than You, it's basically just a crack song they made by dissing each other's height! It's not that big of thing in Korea to talk about heights, but IT IS A WHOLE ISSUE when it comes to mamamoo! And it's true that their height differences is just 1 cm apart, starting off with moonbyul as the tallest down to wheein as the shortest 😂 they are just such crackheads!

[@NEWBOTANICA]

mmm's mv's barely get any attention on their own channel, they're all through mnet or that 1nek channel.. idk why as i'm not korean but i presume it's like a news broadcast of everysingle mv of idols so it reaches alot more people

[@kalaksed]

stone music and 1thek are both music distributors. they make deals with artists from smaller companies (basically, those outside the big 3. and bighit) so that their music will be seen by a larger audience than the agency could generally reach on their own (since a lot of people follow those channels because of other artists they've found from other agencies). the distributor gets ad revenue from the videos watched through their channel, the artists from the smaller agencies reach a wider audience than possible, so it's really a win for both sides (...probably a bigger win for the distributors though) rbw quite possibly doesn't really need the distributors anymore, since they're arguably a more well-known agency now, but they've still got the contracts so still use them

[@crazyr2113]

Thank you for this! There is a guide from Purple Hawke about their crack songs :D To get some background. There is a completely acapella live stage for Um Oh Ah Yeh, did anyone tell you? 😊 And I feel like the Live Stage for Taller than you is even better.

Austin, you gotta love Mamamoo's madcap sense of humour. Mamamoo is well known for their support of LGBTI community, for instance in the 'Hip', when Solar is fronting the punk rock band the two musicans are actually 2 well known Korean 'Drag Queen' performers. Also the 2nd song is essentially a 'diss' track picking on Wheein, who is 1cm shorter than the rest of the group, although the whole group are all actually quite short so this makes it even funnier..

[@rayujiueno]

[@Superion74]

Songs like 1cm Taller Than You proved that MAMAMOO has no equals when it comes to trying out genres and concepts. It's a song where they roast each other's height, even though the tallest member Moonbyul is only 163cm, which is still short. They have another song called Sleep In the Car where they rap about...sleeping in the car. For more crackhead Mamamoo songs, you can check out Aze Gag (dad jokes), Waggy (animals), Recipe (cooking), and Pink Panties. Oh, and if you want to see what Mamamoo can do with cutesy concept, I would suggest Sky! Sky!, although most MooMoo have forbidden the mention of this song lol.

[@wheejx4]

Please react to mamamoo woo ahh, that song is full of harmonies. You'll love it!

[@hvagr8da]

Still can't handle how good their CF's are!

[@thanhnguyen-ht2zv]

[@hanimn6271]

[@itmam-tq1iy]

[@cherion3120]

Versatile Queens!!!!!!!

[@anarerazedar991]

I love that fact that they do goofy, weird and funny songs like these. I love to play them when I have a rough day because I quickly forget and laugh my head off. I know the girls have so much fun doing them too. How can you not love them?

[@hanadarmymoo]

Pre-release - Official CB/title track Ahh Opp - Um Oh Ah Yeah Taller than you- You're the best Draw Draw Draw- Decalcomanie Aze Gag- Yes, I am Star, Wind, Flower, Sun- Starry Night Rainy Season- Egotistic Destiny- Hip

[@tryshmblack]

These 2 MVs are just Iconic. Love it.

[@hasnidane8566]

Um oh ah yeah was the song that basically brought them to fame (their immortal song appearance also helped) and made them debt free, so um oh ah yeah had a really good impact and waz also very popular in korea since its really catchy

[@NicholasCat]

7:30 Yeah it kinda bugs me when the MMM channel isn't the first thing that pops up when I search for specific songs. It happens to their newer releases, group or solo, with the exception of HIP and the more recent CF songs

[@kpopsoju3183]

Previous to MAMAMOO's 4 seasons project, their title track releases would also be accompanied by fun, silly music videos for one of their B-side tracks. Another unique element of the group is that they would release B-side tracks that were silly, quirky, and fun. It really showed that although they were loaded with talent, they didn't hesitate to make fun of themselves. They didn't take themselves too seriously, which further increased their popularity, particularly domestically.

Llegué temprano y a la expectativa, emocionada por tu reacción 💜💜 a mamamoo 😍

[@guadalupegonzalez5274]

oh i love these songs but i can't wait for you to react to Anymore by Wheein and Jung Key💜 Greetings from Argentina 🇦🇷💙

[@guadalupegonzalez5274]

I had to fix my comment and it left my heart, but at least it remains in my memory that Sir Austin gave it to me🥺

[@hopecheptoo5358]

Early squad where you at?!!!

[@ja_5215]

Fun fact they wore a minions custom on their concert 😂😂💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

[@katyal.3601]

For their comebacks, they usually perform a b-side along with the title track on shows. Either it’s a light/joke song (Taller Than You, Aze Gag, Sleep In The Car, Waggy) or a strong one/ballad (I Miss You, Star Wind Flower Sun, No More Drama, Ten Nights). All songs do a great job of showing Mamamoo’s range every comeback

[@laishav5177]

You need to listen Um Oh Ah Yeah live. That song was the reason I'm so obsessed with Mamamoo. Their live version is insane.

[@wowjuswow]

Um oh ah yeh was well received by the public and was/is an LGBT anthem and was played at pride in some places. So an overall win for us lesbians😂

[@yoru101]

Hello Austin. Thank you for taking the time to watch their videos on their official channel! Mamamoo adlibs "Um Oh Ah Yeh" sometimes when they sing live. I highly recommend the video "chaotic mamamoo moments i can't forget" by resonance. It highlights the best adlibs for the songs "You're the Best" and "Um Oh Ah Yeh". It's a very good video.

[@katyal.3601]

Mamamoo always better live but the feel of Um Oh Ah Yeh live stages is really one of a kind. You end up singing along even to all the adlibs especially at the end part with the all the vocals. Still such a fun song 5 years later

[@301th-wanderer]

Not a huge fan of Um Oh Ah Yeh but 1cm Taller Than You is definitely in my top 10 mmm songs (unpopular opinion I know). Loved your reaction, ty !

[@eileenr79]

Ah yes, this was my first MAMAMOO song and I’ve been sold ever since 🥰

[@kimdojega4159]

IT'S HEREEE OMGGG. Also thank you for that wonderful piano intro 😍

[@Frostyad7251]

Hahaha your intro was great 😂 You’re really talented. Honestly, if you ever posted a video of you singing I’d be really interested. I’m not sure if you have a second channel where you sing and perform but I’d love that!

[@lyuu3625]

“Theyre so weird... and i love it!” SUCH A MOOD SIR AUSTIN

[@CleopatraPhilopator]

😂😂😂 Mamamoo has different styles, so be prepared to more fun songs. I can’t wait for you to watch AZE GAG.

[@elianmckensi4289]

Thank you sir austin ❤️ I got hooked on these 2 songs because it was hilarious and the rest was history. They aren't hard to love

[@yandel1509]

mamamoo is simply a versatile kpop band adaptable to any situation, 1cm, sleeping in a car, azg, they are songs that started as a joke, as inside jokes of them, and ended up being a song, of which to be proud since They are incredible, then there is a song called glem, which one thinks is a normal song, but it is an advertisement and it is incredible

[@VonChoker]

They did an a cappella version of Um oh ah yeh at a music show. It's on youtube if you want to watch it. It's very good

[@khairunnisarahayu7786]

As a lesbian uoay never make me upset. that song full joke and satire ;) thats why i never think that song is a problem. Love your reaction!

[@biaconex]

It’s so good when the music make us smile!

[@kalaksed]

and then on to "taller than you"... it was their promoted b-side for that album, alongside the title track, "you're the best". they actually performed the song live multiple times, with their ceo hyping them up backstage before the performances, encouraging them to go more and more over the top (very, very different from usual, that) in fact, the song even exists because of the ceo. he saw the girls bickering about their height and instead of telling them to knock it off he suggested they focus that bickering and anxiety into a song (that he helped write). so, "taller than you" was born. funny enough, while reviewing behind the scenes footage of the mv shoot (that went up on mmmtv) he saw solar and wheein bickering again, this time about a lack of sleep and needing to sleep in the car while wearing full makeup due to the long shooting hours, and again went "lets make a song out of this". so... "sleep in the car" was born (it includes a line 'the ceo wants to make a song of this again') as for the height thing... it's a big deal to the girls since they're all so short. there's an interview on a show called 'qmentary' for their melting album (that the song was on) where they discuss it a bit. and you can still see them bickering over height and who gets to wear the tallest heels during one of the "egotistic" mmmtv episodes (answer: whoever gets there first tends to find the tallest heels available) poor wheein is the shortest at 159 centimeters and the other three will never let her forget it. hwasa is next at 160 cm, then solar at 161 and finally moonbyul is tallest at 162 (she loves to point out that's 162.8, though, which even made it into this song). so there is literally just one cm of difference between each pair. for americans, those heights make wheein and hwasa 5'2" and solar and moonbyul 5'3" others have already pointed out solar playing jessi near the end of the video... mamamoo actually did a whole spoof of that season of 'unpretty rapstar' that they called 'i'm pretty rapstar' where each member got to play multiple contestants at once. there are only a handful of really short videos but they're absolutely hilarious and pretty spot on as far as parody goes also it's funny that you mention them looking a bit like minions... during their four seasons concerts the girls actually put on whole skits based around this song. the s/s skit had the three shortest wish to be taller and get their wishes granted in the most ridiculous ways possible. the f/w skit reversed this and had the three tallest get shrunk down...with solar and hwasa wearing little minion costumes akin to the sumo and dinosaur suits we've seen elsewhere. both skits are ridiculous (esp the last day of the f/w concert where the girls just dropped all pretense of character and kept calling wheein by name instead of 'moomoo god' when she was in her moomoo god role). yet more proof that these women aren't just amazing vocalists but also talented comedians as well

[@Nelybeans]

I seriously subscribed to the right person man... Breathe No More, you are a man of taste. The other day was Eunha/Gfriend's Fever supremacy and now this? YES!

[@darkdrako1585]

Aww! Glad you enjoyed it!!! Loved the react!
