Okay now drive and taste..... For the complete trio of skz adult content

[@vanessasparks2324]

You forgot Connection

[@nicoleliberty6844]

Taste has been described as Red lights 2.0

[@JayneMarshall-rl3rl]

Omg how sexy are they ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ love you guys so much forever ❤❤❤❤ forever

[@EmmieUniverse]

So the song is about obsession with their work. The red lights are the recording lights. But Hyunjin has a knack of making everything he touches sexy. Apparently the lyrics were much worse and Chan had to tone it down 😭🤣

[@xKuRupTx]

Lmfaoooo

[@mariacelcia2]

​@@xKuRupTxOmg i love this description of hyunjins work. Cover me is one of my faves of his songs and he wrote Taste as a continuation of Red Lights and it's a danceracha song so all three make it extra sexy, Lee know killed his vocal parts. Hyunlix (hyunjin and felix) and Minsung (lee know and han) are the 2 biggest love ships in the group. There are many shops like hyunho (hyunjin and Lee know) chanlix (Bang Chan and felix) and hyunin (hyunjin and I.N) but some are more wholesome then romanticized. I live watching Changbin flirt with hyunjin at every opportunity it is hilarious.

[@nefertiti1052]

Hyunjin's songs have 2 modes: sad and horny.

[@Tristana.Keauna]

There are 3 types of Bang Chan (imo). Bang Chan; Leader of SKZ, Channie; him being his usual, open, heartwarming, loving self and CHRISTOPHER!; Chan clearly being sexy, while pretending not to be sexy...that man sent his fans on a journey today talking about if he should cover his face or his body, and then opted to send 'beefy' pic and legit sent a picture of meat/food. He knows what he's doing. I can always tell what kind of mood he is in given the hashtag trending on twitter/x lol. Seriously though (if you're still here and not googling haha), this was the song that sort of sunk me into Hyunjin. I had heard MANIAC. I had watched his self-choreographed videos and his Studio Choom AOTM, but this was the song that made me realize he wasn't just a pretty face and guy who can dance, but he can sing, and he can emote!! There is a reason he is always wrecking me. (plus he legit is just a quiet, artistic goofball with small spurts of energy. What's not to love!).

[@msbug1818]

I LOVE the rollercoaster of emotions he puts us through on Bubble 😂 He is such a flirt, no matter how much he might protest that. The many sides of Christopher is why he's my ult ❤

[@OttersAndOreos]

Bang Chan is known for crop tops. His father was a heavy duty weight lifter and swimmer. Chan followed in his father’s footsteps.

[@ayba9177]

The fact that Channie's father is his goal.. y'all we won't be able to handle all that! 🥴

[@JAMoore-zz3ki]

Bang Chan and Hyunjin wrote Red Lights as a song about their constant, never ending obsession with work (their lives as idols, and all of the training, songwriting, performing, traveling, recording, etc.). It is meant to show how shackled they are by their responsibilities and efforts to be perfectionists about everything, even though they chose that life and they love what they do. But sometimes they want to escape it, too. BUT....... When they actually made the video......the visual concept was decidedly sexier than people were expecting. Especially from members of Stray Kids. So a lot of people have a misconception about the song and M/V because of the visual concept. And it doesn't help (it's funny, actually) that SKZ decided to take advantage of people's misconception for their stage performances. For those, the entire group is singing, and they have a pretty sexy concept there, too. So it started out as one thing......and then evolved into something else. LOL

[@chandorasworld]

Seeing Christopher's eyes roll back like that changed my life. ✨

[@xKuRupTx]

NO BS😭

[@StrayHavenCami]

This comment wins the internet in my eyes and I strongly second the sentiment!

[@msbug1818]

Yes! That sent me into a tailspin and I couldn't function for a while afterwards 😅 I love this song and mv so much ❤

[@prmtv]

Red Lights music video was how I found Stray Kids 😅 its still my favorite Skz song. The whole thing is an absolute masterpiece. I listen to it and watch the mv daily. Chan has said multiple times he wants to get a tattoo. Like a whole sleeve. Heaven help us if that man ever gets tatted up 😅 Two my favorite Skz things to watch people react to... Felixs deep voice for the first time and Red Lights 😂

[@NinaRas77]

Your reaction to Red Lights is all of us reacting to Red Lights for the first time 😂It doesn’t matter man, woman, sexual orientation…. It is the same for everyone. This song is a masterpiece, the video is a masterpiece and the choreo is masterful! I will never get enough of this song.

[@LG_Lela]

Another hot song is Taste. Lyrics written and sung by Hyunjin, Felix, Lee Know, music by Bang Chan. No M/V, but there is a live performance: kzbin.info/www/bejne/on2ng2aoipKbfKcsi=J7znlCyrL4MPu9TB

[@Tripster621-vb8jz]

The name of the song in Korean is Compulsion, and the two of them in the video represent the struggling opposing sides, the one that knows it should stop, and the other side that loves it and can't. Stray Kids did a series called Howl in Harmony where the members split into units, and each unit created a song (Gone Away, Surfin, and Red Lights). In the third episode, Bang Chan and Hyunjin discuss the concept for their song. People say the song is about work, but that's not completely true. Chan and Hyunjin used work as an example of the feeling they wanted to convey because both of them are obsessive when they are creating and don't stop, even though they know they'll be exhausted the next day. So, the song is about that kind of compulsive behaviour, which could be about many different things. Hyunjin definitely wanted it to be sexy, so I doubt he had work in mind when he was writing the lyrics. He has admitted the lyrics were a lot sexier originally and Chan toned them down. It's really interesting watching the members of 3Racha talk about the composing process with the inexperienced members, and episode four where they share their songs with the other units is hilarious. The other members' reaction to Red Lights is priceless which shows they did not interpret the song to be about work. LOL! Don't get the shippers started. Through the years there have been so many pairings I've lost count, and each group swears they are right and everybody else is blind. However, to be fair, the companies are responsible for a lot of it. They make new idols do blatant things that will contribute to people getting these ideas even though the industry as a whole has historically been very intolerant of any idol who has ever come out as gay. Very hypocritical.

[@nina04.k]

If you want to see a ship between members you should react to Minsung moments (Lee Minho & Han Jisung). Basically every Stay is shipping them. They are just so cute 🥰❤️

[@ladyshar42]

This music video is a work of art. So is Chan's backless suit, lol. Also someone needs to introduce him to Minsung, lol, the biggest SKZ ship of all. He definitely needs to do Taste and Drive, though, complete that Golden Triology.

[@Nicolly_Rodrigues]

Yess

[@prmtv]

Ah yes the Unholy Trinity of Skz hehe

[@Xandycane]

Taste!

[@LeanZZZ-nd8ts]

MINSUNG YES!

[@publicaritoo]

You have to see chan reacting to this 😂

[@PRO-MIM]

Bang Chan in this video - beauty 🔥🔥🔥 the back view… outfit…

[@n2sunset]

Not about what you think it’s about 😜The obsessions they are struggling with is their work… music creating and production for Chan and always striving for perfection in his dance for Hyunjin.

[@cain4leeknow]

that one quiet moment in the mv when Hyunjin's on the bed squirming and breathing hard, grasping at his chains and clothes.....haven’t been the same since, depression cured, health reinstated ;;;

[@Crone.of.theGrove]

If you liked this react to the live performance of Taste. Felix, Hyunjin, and Lee Know. Sexy as hell

[@KittyDarkMoonWitch]

Him being ow-key being a Hyunchan-er is making my day!! 😂😂😂 I cannot WAIT for red lights 2!

[@Tristana.Keauna]

just saw this pop up and haven't watched it yet, but wanted to say that I really really enjoyed the livestream today!!

[@xKuRupTx]

ty!

[@PRO-MIM]

Seems like i wouldn’t have sleep today 😅 Deadpool theme request - kingdom god's ddu du du du (you can make pauses or blurry video to avoid blocking) Korean name for Red lights literally “compulsion” that’s about their obsession with work 😇😏 but we don’t believe them)

[@charliem8360]

11:09 That was my reaction 😂 13:23 Welcome to the "Delulu's club" 17:40 Oh you have no idea 😂 Wattpad is something else with the fanfics from HyunChan (Hyunjin and Bang Chan)

[@gaminggirl5914]

React to play with fire or when the party's over or artist of the month covers by hyunjin. I will be waiting for you to be amazed and shocked and I think obsessed with these. His facial expressions and dance in these in, just 🔥 , 🌊 , ⭐

[@kirstenjunger4667]

I still grin like an idiot when I think about the OT8 live stage and the fact that there are Stays with their parents at concerts. I know, I'm simple-minded.

[@harriettholmes539]

STAY on deck. "Red Lights" Concept Overcoming/fighting your inner demons and the compulsion to be perfect in all aspects of your life. Based on how heavily they are mirroring each other in the choreography, we can assume they represent the different sides of the same person. Both of them struggling against chains that are there to restrain and limit their movement.

[@xKuRupTx]

Indubitably 😌

[@ScarletRose7]

Oh I was looking forward to this since the live ended hehe!! ALSO, I agree. This might be better than God's Menu (for me) 🙈 I'm a Chan/Chris bias so believe me when I say seeing his eyes roll back in the end like that opened up a whole new world for me 😳 Ah but what i fucking love the most about him is how crazy fucking talented he is!! He takes part in the writing, composing, arranging, song editing, everything!! He's responsible for the stray kids' SOUND!! And he's such a genius for that. I think it's something really underrated about him cus most stays only see him as "a dad of 7 kids" and forget that he's actually a VERY good artist and performer himself. Hyunjin as always is so beautiful he catches your eye immediately. Both of them are really so musically talented though. I think their voices harmonize really well with each other. I wish we'd get more HyunChan songs haha Also I really love that we can see you like and comment on the original video. Most reactors don't even bother. The live was so fun btw!! I hope your game went well and you grabbed a proper meal after haha (Also yes the fanfic exists... But i haven't read it... Yet.. 🙈) And Chan has a habit.. He will NEVER admit what he's doing but he definitely KNOWS what he's doing. If you ask him what the song "Connected" is about he'll say "wifi" and if you ask him about red lights he'll say "traffic safety" 💀 and "drive" is about "motorcycles" (he's a liar that LOVES to tease us lmfao)

[@TaqwaAbderahim]

stray kids are having there comeback soon so you can react to the tracks and teasers for not

[@kyky-zi1nc]

i love sexy Hyunjin

[@Nicolly_Rodrigues]

13:50 😂 So far we don't know about this, but there are members that fans ship, you can react later!!

[@ashleylawson5638]

I wish I could see this video again for the first time lol! Seeing you lost for words was perfect 😂🤌🏼

[@raen8722]

Honestly for me, I tend to be more drawn to Bang Chan and Lee Know because of their personalities but my bias changes through all 8 as quickly as my favorite song. From minute to minute everyday.

[@rachelk7148]

Me waiting for you to see Christopher’s belly chain in the end scene 👀👀 go back and find it!! I vote for lalalala next :)

[@xKuRupTx]

AH I MISSED IT!

[@rachelk7148]

@@xKuRupTx I didn’t see it until I watched it a few times. Crop tops and belly chains, this man 🔥

[@pandamanda3182]

That man wears body jewelry like no one else.

[@Resistance_Is_Futile1of3]

I spotted the belly chain when he lifted deadlifted Hyunnie up... I thought I needed to get my delulu pills then I saw it again.. I really going have to send a big tip to Chris' stylist team.. crop tops/sleeveless vest-coats/face & body jewelry/tattoos/backless suits... they are slaying it.. 🖖🏽

[@xKuRupTx]

@Resistance_Is_Futile1of3 ong!

[@tremaineransom5330]

definitely about red lights

[@AriScy2319]

Its so cute watching him get flustered

[@cassc23]

Yep this one is up there for me too and no not because of the visuals lol No they're not talking about each other...they're pretty much meant to be one in the same person but the 2 sides to the person, the complusion/obsession and the part dealing with the obsession that has a grip on them. It's work for Chris (set the mic up) but they always say people can make their own interpretation and they enjoy hearing them. However, they wanted a sexy tone to this...and yes that's what they accomplished lol...there's the start to finish process on their series Howl in Harmony which is a great 8 part series (could be 6 part)

[@xKuRupTx]

Worddd

[@ischbinz]

Good morning from Germany This song is not about "who or if they refer to someone specific" it's more about talking of toxic relationships in general. Certainly not about Chan and Hyunjin 🙂

[@Nicolly_Rodrigues]

I'm glad you're enjoying Stray kids!!

[@RoxxyFly]

My head cannon is that the lovey or spicy songs are about STAY 😂

[@Wh0reRacha]

Yess red lights is finally here 💯💯 I knew you would absolutely lose it haha the tension definitely was tensioning huh🫠 also I caught up with the live stream last night and I was laughing so hard when you said that someone told you in the comments that the song was definitely not about any girlfriends 🏳️‍🌈 because that was me hahaha

[@saeedtalebipoor2831]

Plz check out Lalalala and S-class buddy, I hope this time I win😂

[@Tristana.Keauna]

He is ready!! Those songs and videos are so fast paced and intense, but I have faith he can name them all now! I fully second this vote! (for what it's worth heh.. which is like... dat much)

[@SkzAte-h3s]

React to Taste by danceracha(Felix, hyunjin and lee know) it doesnt have a music video so react to a lyric vid SOOO WORTH IT

[@suzan2111]

dance performance is better!

[@taniarowe1248]

Yasss i'm so happy you reacted to this🖤 i know a lot of stays already explain to you the real meaning of the song hahah, some funny moments of them would help you to know more their personalitys the chanel katya storm has the best funny moments, also theres also duos that your going to love them i don't like to call them ships cause their duos not ships hahha the reason is people who like to make some very weird edits or videos of them in which they sexualize their friendships ( or whatever ship) or even create some uncomfy tensions between them when theres none so yes i just prefer duos haha sorry for the long explanation

[@sablgrl01]

Your reaction was exactly me the first time I watched this back in May, before the Met, they found me(popped up on my yt feed) watched Maniac then this.. when I say i dropped my phone on my face🫣🫠I was so not prepared!!! my first time delving into K-pop , I was met with this ?!😅. I fell down the SKZ rabbit hole really Fast!!

[@xKuRupTx]

Valid 😂

[@Xandycane]

Taste or Cover Me. I feel like Lee Know wasn't quire mature enough to convey the sexy of Drive (I'd love to see that re-done), but Taste is pure sexy emotion and Cover Me is pure longing.

[@NinaRas77]

Also, they did a live performance of this song in one of they concerts with all of the members. You should check that out as well 😊

[@Myshell1245]

This is my favorite reaction so far!! Red lights....🥵

[@xKuRupTx]

Tysm!

[@deboraventas7813]

HYUNJIN AND YEJI PERFORMANCE PLEASE!!

[@StayWord515]

I wanna see your reaction about skz (lee know/hyunjin/felix) teste, and dance performance❤❤❤❤❤

[@sh-ye3kz]

yeahhh next surfin! plz

[@_ANInaME_73]

Actually you shoul watch some minsung moments😅(Han and Lee Know) they are like one of the biggest ships in the industry

[@ericajohnson8145]

Tyty for this reaction! I LOVE this song, but the truly important things (to me) are the choices they made in making the mv. First of all, they brought in an openly gay director, and that's a BIG deal. Korea has not been open to LGBTQ lifestyles. People who "come out" in kpop basically end their careers. The head of the company stray kids is under is openly anti-gay. SKZ have always done what they could, however, to show support and solidarity with the Community. They could have easily used a man and woman in this mv, for example, but instead chose to go with two men and a whole lot of innuendo😂. I couldn't be prouder of them. That being said, i really don't think this is bang chan and hyunjin speaking to each other (sorry😂), rather that they are perfectly comfortable portraying this visual idea together. Don't get me wrong, there are some seemingly strong "ships" amongst members. The dynamic between lee know and han is iconic, and felix and hyunjin once received death threats when rumors of them dating got out of hand. Saddly, there are a ton of fans (and a majority of their culture) who simply can't handle the thought that some of them might be gay or bi, so don't expect any official declarations. The only other thing i would add is that this song/mv was part of a project called "Howl in Harmony," in which the members of 3racha (the main producers) each broke apart and paired with the others in order to work on the production process with them. Each group was tasked with creating a vastly different result. Bang chan paired w hyunjin to do something sexy/hard, changbin paired with felix and lee know to create a fun summer vibe (surfin), and han paired with I.N and seungmin to do a sad ballad/love song. The behind the scenes/making of all of this can be seen in their SKZ Code series. Can't wait for the next reaction ❤! OH, and hyunjin began writing "taste" as a continuation of red lights, so definitely check that out soon!!!

[@tamarchikobava4295]

I might get jumped for saying this but I believe most of the members are like brothers to each other. Yes they constantly flirt and entertain stay, or have fun between themselves(at that age me and my friends used to do that too). But Chris has mentioned in his lives the word “brothers” several times(in English and in Korean). Kids themselves call each other brothers too. So that’s why I’m not fond of out of control overly $exualized shipping between them. harmless shipping is ok in Kpop and sometimes it’s fun but when people bring up those ships during kids’ lives, or make edits…I just think that people often forget that idols are real humans, and have feelings…when I first got into Skz, it was my first ever introduction to kpop and I fell into Hyunlix rabbit hole, believing every edit about those “meaningful” glances or touches, but then I watched more content, where they talk about each other and realized how effed up shipping culture is :( Btw, Hyunjin especially loves and dotes on younger members, and he’s said it himself that he wants to take care of them. He’s an only child and having younger brothers feels special to him.

[@LuckyRabbitsFeet]

There's still a ton of hype songs to recommend... (and of course Taste the unofficial sequel to Red Lights) ... but as a journey into SKZ's vulnerable side, I would like to put forth Cover Me. Lyrics were written by Hyunjin, and really, it showcases their amazing vocals. Honestly, it is one of my favorite songs. Also, there are a ton of Ships in Skz (my personal flagship is Hyunlix). I just ship for fun and don't get too serious about it, I also like Chanlix and what I like to call "Big cat/little cat" (Lee Know and Felix ... lino is soft for Felix, so cute) in case you couldn't tell my ult bias is Felix and my bias is Hyunjin (so I feel you every video when those two are on screen) and then I'm always getting wrecked by everyone else at different times for different reasons.

[@emarsh55]

Your face❤

[@sonysunandar673]

Next is taste. Please react

[@y0squ]

Seriously skz always be making some fanfictions about eachother in those mv's they lately literally made a movie where felix and lino like eachother lol (and its not even my interpretation but Lee knows😭)

[@destineysaldivar9052]

Quick someone link Minsung vids for him he gonna need Delulu pills fast❤

[@PoeticMisfortune_X_SKZ]

I'm not sure that you will be able to stream the survival show on YT. I think it gets copyright claimed.

[@TheTheblackraven]

This song is definitely NOT about them, think about it, they could not have women in this MV, would not fly in Korean society. Mostly the older members that do these more adult songs like Lee know in drive. If you like this watch TASTE. All on my playlist under "Hard Sexy" when you know you'll know lol

[@innacraine]

You don't know anything about K-Pop. Who will allow them to shoot and sing about non-standard relationships between people of the same sex? It's not Thailand. All songs and MV from SKZ are deep in meaning.

[@xKuRupTx]

No shit I don’t know anything about K-pop, u must be new here 🥴
