can you do badvillain plzz

[@AnimeIntroStyles4]

Nayeon seems to be someone who’s good at making decisions. She consistently picks amazing outfits, consistently picks good concepts, keeps picking good music video directors, and good songs, as well as good people to collaborate with. Every time I see her in something, I think “she is the real deal.”

[@beatzhoper]

Yes make me want to wait for her next comeback so bad

[@ITGIRL922]

they need to let her choose anything atp, even for the group release

[@Jockuptown]

lmao do you think Nayeon made a single decision in this video or concept? come on, please. She is signed to a major label, they would've had the song done before it was even hers. Everyone working on the video is there because a team of people at her label picked them, she would not have even dressed herself, that's all done by stylists. She has no control over who she would collaborate with, thats her labels choice. She aint making a single decision here. If you wanna see those that are, look at the blackpink girls since they are only signed as a group now, all their solo stuff is done under their own production companies, meaning they do have full control over the creative process and are actually making a number of decisions.

[@beatzhoper]

@@Jockuptown Jihyo's album 'Zone' contains almost every songs which was written and composed by her also she decided certain melodies when you see her recording behind the scenes. Also I suggest you to watch some behind the scenes eps of twice mvs. There members tell how they pick their own outfits and hairstyle for the mv. The points you made might be true during their beginning era but now they have authority over their style for the mv. Dahyun has never been coloured her hair for many years because she doesn't want to. The members chose strategy to be their title track which tells members can decide what should be the title track. So Nayeon has influence on deciding what type of genre she wants in her album, what kind of concepts she going to do and style she wants.

[@AnimeIntroStyles4]

@@JockuptownI disagree. When you look at the decisions made for TWICE’s work, as well as for Jihyo, Tzuyu, and Misamo, there’s some good content, but not everything lands perfectly. With Nayeon, however, the quality always feels higher in all categories. It’s been consistently strong, from her solo debut to her latest comeback. If the label can achieve that level of quality for Nayeon, I can’t understand why they don’t do the same for recent Twice content. Nayeon has to be a factor in that success.

[@yayyay1235]

the editor for this video went CRAZY and im here for it

[@FreelanceSazabi]

The content, the editing, the choice of song to cover - all sensational.

[@Kaurigone]

I love that the editing has slowly gotten more and more (TWICE REFERENCE????) over time

[@KiKaraage]

Love that KZbin got that title phrase linked to search as well 😂

[@太陽與星星的影子]

The editing in this is crazy, really creative. I REALLY liked 4:50, 5:17, 5:31 (the transition from Kevin to everyone going 'Crazy In Love'), 9:09, 15:37, 16:20. Super helpful to have the music parts playing every time the reactors bring up a certain part, and the little editing of the instruments. The timestamps are so helpful too! An impressive reaction, analysis and god-tier editing as always. Edit: added some words for clarity.

[@KiKaraage]

And 19:00 😆😭😭😭😭😭

[@ops7564]

As a person with 0 music knowledge, it always impresses me how much you can pick out when listening to a song. Love the reaction and love the song!

[@de68a]

Everyone picked up on the "Beyonce Crazy In Love" vibe - but no one got the "Amerie - 1 Thing" vibe - especially the dance break !! (which uses Amerie's chorus "woahwoahwoah") 😉😎

[@andromeda5369]

Yes!!! Finally somebody mentions it!

[@WitchlightNW]

right?!!

[@geogass]

Thank you. I was like "it is so Amerie" at the 1st listening 😊

[@LunaticLynne]

came here to make this comment as well haha

[@dss1922]

whoa! thank you for putting me onto this song. what a stunner. i shamefully haven't heard of amerie before... i'm a fake r&b fan (┬┬﹏┬┬)

[@seasonsoflove9507]

i like how one of the reactors pointed out that in TWICE Nayeon quite literally ascends into the stratosphere but here we get to rlly appreciate her lower but powerful register. one of my top songs from 2024 honestly

[@matheusant3715]

This is one of the best K-pop songs of 2024, from concept to execution. I like TWICE but don't consider myself a hardcore fan, yet congrats to JYP (and to the girls) for their recent work. TWICE has been producing amazing pop songs. Production-wise, Nayeon manages to embody a concept that's really different from what TWICE and her solo work have been. I really appreciate how it's a perfect nod to 2000-2010 pop music without being just a copy-paste or empty concept makeover. It's as if she embodied pop stars like Britney, Beyoncé, and Lady Gaga in herself. As a longtime pop music fan, and then K-pop fan, I was shook, because I thought JYP would play it safe and make something like POP! to chart again. The whole EP is a masterpiece of fresh, good pop music, especially "Magic" featuring Julie.

[@RENZOPPS5]

Thanks for the reaction🐇, the editor had me dying several times🤣

[@Blue-dx4pt]

I’m already a Twice fan but Nayeon’s ABCD made me fall in love with her even more. Its her best TT yet and up there in overall best Twice TT

[@Keke88]

I would love to see her and Key from SHINee do a song like this together. Their energy vibes match one another so much. She is a fantastic performer. Thanks for the reaction.

[@KiKaraage]

YESSSSS the soloists with great concept great executions!

[@theepoopydoodoo]

Nayeon referenced so much but musically and visually referencing 2000s divas like Beyoncé, Amerie, JLO, Christina Aguilera and Britney!

[@pseudopulk3478]

Also it very much gave Lee Hyori

[@dss1922]

the sanayeon kiss being included in this i'm crying. in all seriousness, i appreciate the analysis you guys have brought to this. definitely gonna check out the podcast episode too. i love when someone gets me to look at something i love in new ways. nayeon's 2nd solo mini was my favourite album release of 2024. oh & i also appreciate reading the comments that this video has attracted. thank you!

[@Kaice88]

Okay this is my first time listening to this song. I don't know why but I love the samples/references to other songs! Im pretty sure there was another sample with her "uh oh uh oh oh" that she does in the bridge/dance break part. It sounds exactly like this song named "1 Thing" by Amerie.

[@MolaASk]

Looking at Nayeon actually feels like heaven. Her angelic and heavenly features are something so beautiful.

[@RoseAllDayyy]

TAYA YOU ARE SO REAL GIRL. I also loved the OTT editing it’s too funny 🤣

[@LotusViridis]

Editing was abundant for this one. This song is so solid, that whole year of kpop could stand on it. I know this series is specifically for kpop but I'm dying to hear some of these people react to Mili, a Japanese artist. I also hope to see TWS on here someday. Loved the breakdowns and Taya is just gorgeous my gosh.

[@YuukiHorra]

The editting LMAO 💀 thank you for reacting to TWICE NAYEON 💖

[@moretomonica]

OMG YESSSSSS SHE DEFINTELY SLAYED FOR HER COMEBACK it was everywhere i'm so glad you all reacted to it and the editor POP POPED off lol

[@sensasian9689]

I wish we had an episode where we had a collab episode with old members and current reacting to kpop vids

[@eri-kuntehee6997]

Im OBSESSED with this song

[@jamztheworld12]

8:08 OH???? WE LOVE A WLW QUEEN

[@xmajesticfaithx5587]

[@jadeph9639]

[@brenp01]

Tayaaaaa omg her being gay reawakened I love her 😅😅😅 the editing in this video was so fun and I love hearing what everyone had to say! This was such a strong song and something new from nayeon for sure!

[@FloraNB]

Love Sean in blue with blue lips and Umu in blue with blue bangs 💙

[@yelhana3223]

OMG THAT CHORUS PART MAKES ME QUESTION MY ENTIRE MUSIC KNOWLEDGE LIKE I KNOW THE BEAT THE RHYTHM OF IT BUT I CANNOT TELL WHAT SONG IT WAS OMG IT WAS CRAZY IN LOVE THE WHOLE TIME AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA FINALLLY

[@Twice_world1]

Nayeon surprised us with her song ABCD. The song is very wonderful, above the rating ❤️‍🔥

[@laaaika]

As a video editor myself, this creative freedom of the editing is our biggest wet dream

[@BEKSOL360]

"YEAH." is so real

[@catalina5851]

Amazing editing and twice related content is always a must watch!

[@gladysqueen3687]

'glad she is OT26' *insert TripleS joke*

[@KiKaraage]

[@stinkynayeon]

[@feelmyrhythm6585]

[@cyrn-l4i]

[@sonjatanksley5432]

Crazy In Love (Beyonce) and It's This One Thing (Amarie) are throughout this hit.

[@reveoncelink6133]

The editor is my favorite person. SERIOUSLY.

[@Empyrean.127]

7:12 Can we be serious please 😭

[@emilianoibarra6448]

She react just like the Twice members

[@WitchlightNW]

saffion took me out with that coochie grab

[@JurateJuju]

I loved the editing!!! ❤❤❤

[@bobansak2583]

Noogi played bass on this track. Pretty sure he's worked w/PDogg on other non-BTS but members? songs. He gigged for aeJ, Seori, BiBi at Head in the Clouds '21. He plays in several bands and sits in/gigged w/4 George, JINBO, SWYA, Jannabi,...

[@naegopayooo]

The JYP whisper and the acronym for ABCD😭😭😭

[@narinnabangcare8368]

2:00 dammmmmmmmmmnnnnnnnnnnn what has the editor tied in 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 This clip is so funny and Tthat AWAKENING moment is so impressive I can’t 😂😂😂😂😂

[@xdcomedyandnostalgicclips]

Only real ones knows "amerie One Thing"

[@justinehercthehuman]

[@leticiakoppe7864]

If the editors aren't Once I don't even know anymore hahaha loved the whole thing! Thanks for the reaction!

[@sensasian9689]

ReacttotheK editing has become a work of art 😂

[@LiamM272]

1:44 got me dying. I think it might be a sign that I need to go to sleep

[@algoribbon9992]

Endings - one of the things that drew me to kpop is that fact that many songs don't have endings - they just stop -

[@mrrboogie]

My favorite 2024 K-pop release. If TWICE promotions slow down after their 10 year anniversary I beg that Nayeon gets the Taeyeon treatment 🩷🙌

[@goosgoos4571]

AAAA! im so happy to see this on my recommended i hope you guys also react to misamos baby im good the chord progression is so so SO CRUNCHY AND YUMMY

[@AyakoSapphirePhoenix]

[@tiffanyli2973]

Can we do a reaction for Minnie’s Blind Eyes Red? That song is a unique release for a kpop artist. Love all of your videos, keep up with the good work!!

[@marianaduarte9420]

I juat realize the production is different in the video than in digital platforms

[@LeeKnowsCatss]

The editing at 1:51 was DIABOLICAL 😂

[@once_selenator]

I really care that the song ends on a 5th. But it's a certified bop

[@CircleWilliams]

7:09 Since JYP entertainment literally has a practice hall named after Michael Jackson, its on brand

[@SWCcomposer]

24:35 is that the color bass doggo version of Redline?

[@TempestDragon98]

I thought when I heard this song the first time that she has mad BoA vibes. Also +1 to the editor.

[@KiKaraage]

THE perfect ReacttotheK video?? I hope Nathan the editor got Paid Well 🎉

[@horacemania294]

[@Puthonitis]

1:20 *queue we belong together by mariah carey*

[@victorestevez7629]

[@AnimeIntroStyles4]

The reacttotheK editor went just a little too gen Z with this one for my taste.

[@Moretropes11]

[@idkwhatputhere]

[@Chloe_Kitty]

[@karinnisaluthfiana446]

Sorry have you ever reacted to rize song?

[@miyawakizones]

WE ARE ALL TAYA 🤣❤

[@monicaherrera3419]

this vid was a banger

[@multeyemeteor]

I'm gonna be the one pissy person in the comments to say, hey editor... my fart noise counter broke, and less is more. Way way way more! I can't focus on what the crew is trying to say, because you apparently get paid per effect. Asides from that, happy to see ReacttotheK react to "ABCD". I wasn't a big fan of "Pop". Something about the sound felt outdated with the tinny synth trumpets and the mix having this kind of oddly blunt and muted sound to it, but "ABCD" is an incredible banger and a bit of a flagbearer for quality in kpop.

[@prettybry-me]

NAYEON ATE

[@lauramunozcaballero6577]

plss react to tzuyu's solo 'run away' !!!! 🙂‍↕️💖
