[@audreydickinson8083]

Also yes the jun vocal appreciation and the CONCEPT PHOTOS FOR THIS ERA

[@Flawlesslmperfection]

THE CONCEPT PHOTOS ARE ART. ART. (especially the underwater photoshoot)

[@loona-is-12]

omg yes PHOTOS!!!!

[@annastaseya1964]

THE C ON C E P T PHOTOS Y E S

[@Ellie-rd9ne]

BEST CONCEPT PHOTOS I'VE EVER SEEN

[@joooooolea]

yes let’s b honest... ace is under appreciated

[@trisha4551]

5:32 "Can we give like another segment for the wardrobe section?" SAME THOUGHTS. THE MUSIC WAS EXCEPTIONAL BUT SO WAS THE STYLING AND THE CONCEPT AND A.C.E IN GENERAL

[@notwerkinginthishouse8634]

Wish i can have them too

[@Kaeldra3]

Every single live performance for this song I just wanted to give their stylists a raise

[@Acelovingchoice]

Y.E.S!! Butterfly phantasy era was GOLDEN! 🦋

[@shibersdad5920]

The beaded lashes are still so amazing to me. My shaky hands could never

[@alzbetakrejcova4749]

Same 😭

[@choi0523]

Jun is awesome ❤❤

[@solarianess]

how did i know yall would pull up the concept photos lmao yes they are literal art

[@thecandlemaker4340]

"He has pearls....threaded on his eyelashes......?" Yes, yes he does.

[@jannet05]

Can we talk about how umu was so excited to show Ace's photoshoot at 5:43 because this was literally me showing my sister

[@via45]

Lol now they sing a even higher note when performing, for funzies

[@mikaelalerrandro1372]

3:30 IM LAUGHING SO DAMN HARD BC OF KEVIN AND THE OTHER BROS SEQUENTIAL REACTIONS LMAO

[@Oliviakhouk]

So much appreciation to the producer for adding this amazing part

[@MunkeeFWRrng]

I was dying. The way he just flew across the screen was so well done. Whoever edited that, thank you

[@hwarang4ever365]

Y'all, take Byeongkwan's advice and *TURN THIS UP LOUDER!*

[@micks2350]

THEY REALLY DID THAT. Stan A.C.E Stan talent

[@fredledesmaii]

I've never been this early. What an achievement.

[@ritamouawad9000]

no one me: "don't say it" "don't say it" me for the 40792 time : " STAN A.C.E"

[@entropy5157]

Umu confusing Dokkaebi to Tteokbokki HAS to be the highlight of this video Hands down!.🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@kellys6967]

there's a dkdktv explanation of the lore of the goblin and how ace / their team incorporated it into the song and mv if anyone is interested !! it's a super interesting watch also stan ace for good skin

[@17_floors_high]

I’m glad someone else noticed the “welcome to the jungle” reference from Guns n Roses! A.C.E is art itself. Styling, vocals, dancing, concept, you name it 😝

[@Mad.E]

if only you guys reacted to covers, you'd be truly blown away by their vocals

[@aquashine93shawol4life8]

Bruh I freaking jumped when I saw the notification 🤣

[@hwarang4ever365]

Maybe jopping perhaps? 😏

[@jz_es.469]

ME- (┛✧Д✧))┛彡┻━┻

[@yasminekabongo7671]

Ace stylists are **chef kiss** 😘

[@Nami-wm2dx]

Memorable parts of this video: - 3:34 Kevin flying across the screen screaming "AAAAAA THE BARS" because SAME (but it made me laugh so much, I had to repeat the section because I didn't understand a thing XD) - Brianna appreciating Jun's vocals and both Brianna and Cloud's compliments towards the boys - 5:32 Henry just giving a shoutout to the clothes and Umu just- being as excited as I'd be and showing them the IG page ç_ç I was squealing in happiness, and when you started repeating "Wait for it" I KNEW you were going for the underwater shots. Those are still going on on Twitter and they explode (in popuparity) from time to time * ^ *

[@beckysmith1178]

Loved the metal trope comment cause I didn’t know that the line welcome to the jungle was related to Guns n Roses. I had caught that they were wearing hard rock band t-shirts! I also liked the comment on the voice sounding like an instrument! He’s right it does. Also that Jun had a short dance that was a part of a traditional dance, which fit the theme well! I liked that you talked about goblins at the first with a little history. I loved that you all loved this song like I do! Thanks!

[@fiorellarodriguez309]

Chan with his Babymetal t-shirt which im so jealous of hahaha.

[@rose3.335]

I really hope this is the start of many A.C.E reactions 😭

[@violetjade64]

same 🤧

[@Oliviakhouk]

I’m so hoping they react to Under Cover

[@bean3309]

@@Oliviakhouk kevin and ummu have done that, but not with all team

[@emjeyyz3491]

Jun's vocal appreciation. Thank you

[@cloverforever9339]

Yes A.C.E is amazing Can you do more reactions to them? They don't have bad songs

[@amanda2212]

YES. PLEASEEEE their own songs and their covers omg

[@audreydickinson8083]

HOW DID I MISS THIS ON THE REACT SCHEDULE IM SO READY

[@King_Jonghyun]

OH MY GOD, ACE??? THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS REACTION, STAN ACE 😭😭😭

[@keepperspective]

Yay! A.C.E.! The wardrobe! The vocals! The rapping! Yes they are my favorites

[@pavithra9557]

Umu being excited is such a mood

[@sgm06025]

I agree with the opinion that costumes made of Korean traditional clothes are really gorgeous....And it looks really good on A.C.E.

[@trisha4551]

Released 5 months ago but Goblin (Favorite Boys) still hits me the same like when I heard it for the first time.

[@melhu770]

Thank you very much for reacting to A.C.E., I always love your reactions and your criticism coming from an experienced party. Thank you very much for your comments to the guys and I'm so glad you liked it. I hope that one day you will be able to react to them again. I loved their reaction to the outfits and they thought of everything from start to finish.

[@TheFlufferx]

ACE has QUICKLY become my second bias group after BTS. They are amazingly talented and have such fab music. They're also genuinely nice guys and so so funny. I'm so glad they're finally getting just a bit of the attention they deserve. They work so hard! Thanks for the reaction!

[@Kokola-qh9wp]

As a choice, I'm so happy to see people reacting to them!! ACE ARE VOCAL KINGS INDEED!!

[@staydzy]

Jun’s my bias because of his beautiful voice so any appreciation of his vocals brings me so much joy 🥺 my baby Junnnnn

[@trisha4551]

I came here for their reaction but for the whole time I was looking at the screen in the middle watching the MV

[@de68a]

Have been waiting for this reaction... one of the best comebacks of 2020... and still love how they gave notice of it when they crashed Diana busking... their reaction when the boys took over their cover... esp Ji Yoon !

[@dayzedandconfuzed]

this is LITERALLY gonna be a.c.e’s year i swear. already having a ton of things come out and getting appreciated 🥰🥰

[@rose3.335]

Thank you so much for reacting to this! A.C.E have some of the best vocals honestly the way they nail edm, hiphop ballads, etc they can do anything my boys

[@heyabbyy]

YES JUN VOCAL KING

[@katcha0w0]

I AM LOVING THIS LOVE FOR ACE!! those boys are literally so talented, i cant wait for their first full album this yearrrr

[@joeysnarock6663]

Yeah, I think this was the best song they ever had. I really love this MV where they wore traditional outfits and then they combined it with modern element. Even the colours in this MV were amazing. The vocals, interesting. The high note by Jun, was incredible. They really improved so much in this comeback! Now I'm waiting for their next project. Hope there'll be a lot more surprises for Choice Anyway, their Collab with Steve and Thutmose was brilliant too.....

[@toaster19_32]

ah yes the epic comeback song: ''Deokbeokki (Favourite Snack)'' 😂🤪😜

[@astridbustillos]

I CHOKED

[@hutchhagendorf7705]

Ok so I’ve watched the “Dokkahbi” part over ten times! And it never gets old!!

[@mikaelalerrandro1372]

5:24 this was exactly how I've reacted after the release of the song, so freaking nice

[@pushumonster]

I'm so happy they will come back soon with Siren:Dawn ! And their concept photos are shockingly beautiful once again !

[@greenteaffany]

I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS SINCE LAST YEAR YESSSSSSSS

[@chanyza]

[@justinjyeung]

8:12 That white sheet in the back be reminding us it really do be spooky season LOL

[@keepperspective]

Yass, throw those headphones! 😂 I have literally done that Instagram flex with the underwater photos shoot with my friends!!!

[@Momo-ht7bd]

Yes A.C.E finally!!

[@Hee.J]

Yess, I've been waiting. Thanks for the video 😊 Really happy to hear compliments about their vocals, and about how natural their sense of flow is, because these are some of my favorithe things about A.C.E.

[@mxnjxeunyok]

Thank you for a.c.e’s mv reaction! Actually the ‘Dak na wara wara ttuk-ttak’ part is kinda like a golblin’s spell in korea :)

[@callfrommountaintop]

I love how unironic it is when everyone just praising them and said “wow”

[@ren4893]

I live for more people appreciating them 🔥 Thank you for your reaction :)

[@KristenLawson_91]

The Steve Aoki remix of the song is pretty lit also.

[@oliviacooley1195]

Kevin flying in at 3:34

[@emmabruh]

Yessss this honestly was a masterpiece in every way, the song, the Styling, the fcking pictures

[@pinkiepiereincarnate2291]

Ran here for A.C.E 🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@crazybanana5089]

The guy that hit the high note in Changer is Donghun, the oldest and also the main vocals

[@MoonlightFilly]

Love hearing professionals pick apart and praise A.C.E! There's so many layers to Favorite Boys, and all of their music really - they're such a talented group. Thank you for reacting!

[@so_very_eun]

YES OH MY GOD

[@sehnisweet343]

YESSS I WAS HOPING FOR THIS

[@bethanyj18]

8:00 I liked that they noted how there isn't an interesting harmonic progression, but they instead have an interesting rhythm and tamber. I highly encourage everyone to check out what they did with a live band when they weren't able to have as complex of a rhythm and tamber. They balanced it some by adding more vocal harmony, which is something they do a lot with their live performances and covers. I think that especially the two ladies that commented on the lack of harmonics will appreciate to see this performance of Favorite Boys: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnfMe5Zpi8yFqZo Furthermore, I encourage everyone to check out more of their live performances if you haven't seen them. The ones on the channel of the video I linked are some of my favorites. The way they performed How You Like That and the Twice medley bring so much joy to my ears.

[@justalostneko]

Yes I'm so happy to see A.C.E here again 😭😭😭 Thank you for the reaction and thank you for introducing them dear umu you always work so hard omg I'm so emotional for some reason idk why T-T

[@Acelovingchoice]

Everything was on point, impressive and not boring at all! Love to see more people enjoying and appreciating this song! Indeed they do have a wide range, I hope the team will get to react to their live performances for... maybe any song? Any cover? Their vocals and harmony are in so many ways beautiful and enjoyable ❤️❤️

[@Noattentionplz]

[@bean3309]

[@mr-in9pi]

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!

[@CarlaIrene]

aaah I loved the description of Byeongkwan's chant as a funk guitar. It's so perfect, because the way he enunciates and stresses some of the syllables over others, it does sound like a bass string being plucked and then resonating.

[@gioovnr]

THANK YOU!!!!!!!! a.c.e is the most unique kpop group and they are so talented

[@Trixuss]

Like, I woke up at 5am cause of a noise.... Saw the notification and just had to stay up watching xD This is, to me, the hiddem gem of 2020, I needed validation so bad haha. Thank you for bringing attentiom to it :) Hope we can see more A.C.E in the future! I think you might really like Undercover!

[@trisha4551]

No one can do it like A.C.E

[@trisha4551]

OMG YAY THANKS FOR THIS
