Japan Showcase 2019 “Hi-STAY” - • Stray Kids Japan Showc...

[@jojo.joanna]

Another interesting thing is that their world tour concerts actually have a lot more remixes than what they showed at Hi-Stay Japan. I'm not talking about ballad versions like I Am You, I mean full on rearrangements of title track beat drops, added dance breaks, etc. When I was fortunate enough to see them in 2020, we were constantly surprised during the setlist because they kept switching it up to make the concert versions that much more special and impactful -- it's admirable just how much effort they put into these stages! Even their stages from their online concerts over the past 2 years have had their fair share of remixes as well. And of course huge shoutout to all the staff who make these shows possible too

[@melaniereacts]

Crazy!!!!!! I need a playlist of all the different remixes 😂😂😂

[@richiewrites7874]

STILL CANT BELIEVE JISUNG TOOK THE RISK AND SANG MY PACE'S HIGH NOTE HIGHER ,, FOR THE FIRST TIME,,, WILL LIVE,,,

[@natty7639]

Han Jisung is amazing!! Literally main rapper and he has lots of his own vocal parts but since main vocalist left he need to sing even more. He is insane🔥🔥 the real 4th generation ACE

[@melaniereacts]

He really is amazing ❤️❤️❤️

[@RM_formerlyjustRMbutYTsucks]

This was a great concert on its own merits, but I also appreciate it because it's a really good vehicle for comparison. This wasn't that long after Woojin left, and while Han took the majority of his parts, Lee Know, I.N, Seungmin, and Chan rounded it out. Han was fine (although he was now officially pulling double duty, so props to him), obviously there was nothing to worry about with Chan, and Seungmin was born ready; he wasn't as solid as he is now, but he was perfectly ok to step up. But Lee Know and I.N? Even though their lines were still fewer than the rest of the group's, they were still suddenly carrying more lines than they were used to, and they were feature lines. They did it, and I'm proud of them, but what's cool is that this is a perfect chance to hear where they were then vs where they are now -- and it's just _miles_ apart. Both of them have so noticeably improved that even people who know little about music can hear the difference.

[@melaniereacts]

I didn’t realise how close this was from when he left! Wow!! It’s actually insane. The burden they must have had on them is crazy. And yes agree, they really have improved insane amounts! So proud of them as well ❤️

[@RM_formerlyjustRMbutYTsucks]

Han just casually rolling in with that My Pace D5. It's probably a good thing he's never been interested in actually training his vocals and just relies on whatever comes out raw. If he decided to actually train as a vocalist, we'd be dead.

[@melaniereacts]

Right?????? His natural talent is seriously INSANE!!!!!!

[@karlafernanda529]

17:05 Seungmin being amazed about Han's hight note: 👁👄👁

[@yu_tastetasty]

I love just going back and watching these every once in a way For My Pace Jisung actually did the note higher than it usually is and if you look you can see Seungmin staring at him like this 😮....it's so cute I love it when artist have fun on stage but it's even more fun with skz Nothing makes me sadder than the fact that I Am You Ballad version isn't on Spotify:( My friend was trying to get skz tickets and I asked them if you can mosh at kpop concerts....she didn't seem to think they would like that 😔

[@RM_formerlyjustRMbutYTsucks]

I Am You ballad ver is woefully unknown by the majority of the fandom. 🙁

[@melaniereacts]

Omg I didn’t realise he did the note higher! I’ll need to go back and watch 😍😍😍 Ahhh I cannot wait to see them this weekend, even though it’s just online I’m still soooo excited!!!!

[@melaniereacts]

And yes……… they need to put the ballad version on Spotify asap what the hell

[@Star-rn8ro]

Han jisung was something else on this concert. And Id like to know what type of CDs were they eating prior to this concert

[@melaniereacts]

Right???? Seriously 🙈🙈🙈🙈

[@annelopez7502]

'I am you' is a ballad version. So it's slightly (just slight) different from original version.

[@jojo.joanna]

What's even more impressive about these live vocals is that they lost their main vocalist just 2 months prior... meaning Jisung, who has always been more proficient at high notes than most of the members had to shoulder the burden of the majority of those lines in an extremely short span of time The others also had to step up and take more difficult vocal parts as well I can't imagine how stressful and physically taxing that must have been, but here he is belting it out perfectly for the entire duration of the concert There are no words which can express how much I respect him and all of the members of SKZ

[@melaniereacts]

Oh wow!!!!! How crazy.

[@hescutethough2419]

A d the way seungmin Was stepping up as New Main vocal as well✨💕💅 aaaa im so proud of them all💕

[@skzbiased96]

You can't say you've heard "i am you" until you've actually heard this version. To think that we are going to enjoy them again in concert makes me so happy!! Even knowing that they are not going to come to my country yet by any chance. BUUT But this type of content is staggeringly beautiful.

[@melaniereacts]

Hahahaha yeah this version is INSANE!!!!!!!!!! Omg I am SO EXCITED for this weekend 🙈🙈

[@astridv8583]

Did you notice, after Han's high part, Seungmin's facial expression 17:05 ?😂 his facial expression is the same one we all had on our faces after hearing Han's part

[@Lulu_villain]

Idk, but everytime I watch these lives, I fall in love with Han again and again, even if he is my bias. He is soooo handsome, and his outfit and hairstyle here is the best. Thank you so much for the video, you made my morning better!

[@melaniereacts]

He really is!!!!

[@mm-qk2sy]

I am very happy for the stays that will go to the concerts, although I cannot , i know that they will have an incredible time!!

[@melaniereacts]

I am so happy for them as well!! and I cannot wait to watch online wooooo

[@jojo.joanna]

Yaaaaaaaaay! Hi-Stay in Japan is one of the most well-documented concerts I've seen and not to mention their energy is through the roof in these performances!! Seriously, the stage presence, the live vocals, the audio and video quality is just unmatched for a concert record

[@melaniereacts]

HANJI IS SM SHINING IN THIS SHOWCASE!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@hanmbtiiscute8800]

Am I first comment here? I'm actually waiting for your reaction!! Thank you!! Actually the Japan showcase is the most fantastic live concert of straykids! Their live vocals and stages is so powerful! Especially the My pace! Han was so.. my goodness!

[@melaniereacts]

omg yessss how good is it!!! I looooooved watching!!

[@hanmbtiiscute8800]

Hi again! Actually the set list of songs were probably released before the concert or it will be surprised list of songs. So it was better to just listen and study their songs. And as far as I know they don't have fanchant name not like on BTS (I'm 6 yrs former Army still love them tho). Their fanchant is commonly base on the songs. There's some guide video created by them doing fanchant. Also, there's some Stays share lyrics sheet of fanchant on twt. That's all!!! Enjoy their concert!!!!!

always in love with I Am You ballad version. it just hurt deep in my heart and so satisfying at the same time. theyre all become bigger and matured as the time passing by and as predebut stay im proud of them. feel like watching my own kids growing haha. lets enjoy the ride together! cant wait for their concert in a less than 2 days omg ✨

[@melaniereacts]

It’s stunning!!!!

[@skzlego]

Yes you are right, you have reacted to I am You but that was different version haha the concert one is a bit more ballad. Did you notice Seungmin's reaction towards Han's high note in My Pace at 17:05? XD

[@melaniereacts]

Haha did I????? I need to go back and see it because I can’t remember 😂 Omg I didn’t notice lol Seungmins jaw dropped 😂

[@skzlego]

@@melaniereacts haha yes it was under "Stray Kids Reaction: How quickly xxx" and u put the time stamp there. XD

[@RM_formerlyjustRMbutYTsucks]

Felix says his back is getting better and better, and he's still faithfully doing his rehab. Unless he's completely clowning us (which I doubt in regards to this particular subject), he's not fully recovered and ready to do all the full choreos. But he's getting there. I think you might have seen the "I Am YOU" mv (kzbin.info/www/bejne/eX_JoJeQodqFY7M ), which would be why the song sounds kind of familiar. But this is the ballad version, not the standard version, which would be why it only sounds _kind of_ familiar. Anyway, if you added it to your playlist during this reaction, be aware that you added the standard version, so it won't sound the same (the standard version is harder and much more upbeat; no one would call it one of their "slow songs") -- this ballad version isn't on streaming sites. This was a "showcase." I'd liken it to being in the middle between "fanmeet" and "full-blown concert," but that's just my personal way of thinking of it. If you look up "skz guide video," you'll find their fanchants. Or see this playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLTQIoxF1vIPlpwARmx6DJTSEpzZOs9K3y As for the _group_ fanchant, they don't have a name one, but they do have an overall SKZ one, set to the SKZ Anthem (which I'm pretty sure you haven't heard, simply because I suspect 75% of the fandom is newish and isn't aware of it): kzbin.info/www/bejne/iV7Ugaebf8h7nqs. It's super simple. (A few STAYs have set the members' names to the anthem in personal attempts at making a name chant, but none are official.) I.N's surname is Yang.

[@melaniereacts]

Ah yes I saw his posts in bubble talking about his back. I just hope he is being 100% honest 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 I need to go back and watch my reaction to it because I don’t remember it. I mean it sounded somewhat familiar but the MV didn’t haha but could have done it when I reacted to like 15 things. Lol how did I mind blank on I.N’s name 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ I knew that!! They should create a name fan chant lol!!! I need to learn these guides. All I know is the unofficial “Seo Changbin” for side effects 😂

[@giselleskz]

Aaaaa Mel i was holding my tears so much in "I Am You" but you said "i love these guys so much" and i just lost it hahaha that performance was/is unbelievable, it really hits different knowing a part of what they went through months before, my respect and admiration! I'm sure they're gonna do an emotional performance on this tour too, i don't know if i'm ready tbh hahahah

[@melaniereacts]

Absolutely!!!! They have been through SO much holy crap. This song though. I had an hour drive to and from work and I played it on repeat 😭😭😭 it’s SO beautiful!!!

Hi-Stay is a showcase (free promotional concert) prior to Japan debut with SKZ2020 album released in March 2020, and therefore it was short. I wish I was already a STAY back then. Now I’m excited to see them performing again, actually in the same venue I suppose.

YAY!! I've missed your videos! Hope the move went/is going well! I'll be seeing them in June so I've also been curious about the setlist. We know the givens are: Maniac, God's Menu, Thunderous, and Miroh, those never leave the setlist. I'm PRAYING so hard for Charmer! I think they'd pick Freeze or even Venom over that but a girl can dream. I Am You has always been one of my fave title tracks and I'm obsessed with that ballad version so I really want them to do that again. They really should release the ballad version on streaming sites. I also want them to do Rock so they can do their infamous dance breaks lol, and Wolfgang so I can growl with my whole chest and bark at the top of my lungs in the arena lol

Hi Mel. First of all, congratulations on your move! I've been lurking and watching all of your skz reactions for a while now and just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy watching you and this format of reactions that you're doing. I really am able to just shut off my brain for a while when I watch you because your genuineness and positive energy are so infectious. Also, your voice is really calming and pleasant to listen to so this is almost like meditation for me haha. I've actually been thinking about joining over on patreon for a while and now you've given me the perfect excuse to sign up for Sunday. Can't wait to watch the concert together with you!

[@melaniereacts]

Awww you are so sweet 🙈🙈🙈 thank you for your kind words, that means a lot to me! Yay so excited to have you watching along with me on Sunday 😍❤️

[@bbokaribae]

Ahhh I gotta look up when the concert is so I can join your concert live on patreon 😍 This concert is more beautiful to me when thinking it's one of the first concerts they had with them as 8. I don't remember if there was one before this but this concert was only 2ish months after Double Knot so they had a lot of re-arranging to do last minute and I think they went HARDCORE like put 200% in for this lol I FELT it EDIT: TBH at this point even I don't know what you've reacted to lol, I Am You is an underrated QUEEN though, definitely in my top 10 still to this day. This arrangement isn't totally like the original, but I love it just as much 😍

[@jojo.joanna]

Yes! I can't believe they pulled this concert off at this level with what they had just gone through and at this point in their careers I think performing in front of so many Stays really helped them through those times and healed us as well... this concert is just legendary for so many reasons

I saw people praise jisung but can we praise seungmin too???? Boy just became Main vocal back then and still works so Hard till this day, shining brightly with those vocals aaaa my boiiii💕💕💕

[@melaniereacts]

He was amaaaaazing!!!!

[@ReapingWillow]

Sorry, i know this is an old comment. lol But I know people still watch these older reaction videos and read the comments to learn about SKZ. Therefore, I think it's important to clear up misinformation when you see it, no matter how long ago it was posted. So just wanna say, there is actually a good reason they were praising Han in particular, and thats because Seungmin WASN'T Main Vocalist. When Woojin left, he did so without the other two members of VocalRacha having even come close to being ready to take over the position. Which is one of the reasons the group was hurt so badly. His actions could have SEVERELY harmed the group when it came to vocal recognition. As it was, SKZ is a rap focused group and were highly ridiculed for having less talented vocalists than almost all of the other groups in the industry. Only to have their one well trained and stage ready main Vocalist walk out. Seungmin was NO WHERE near ready to take on the Main Vocalist position, he had what we call "potential" but the fact is... At the time, Han was a better "Natural Born" Vocalist. To put the whole sequence of events simply... Since Han was already a Main Rapper AND a Main Producer, he obviously couldn't hold down the position of Main Vocalist too. Specially since relying on "Natural Talent" can definitely mean unhealthy habits and lack of proper technique. After all, he definitely can't train his vocals on top of holding down those 3 Main positions in the group. he was already spread far too thin. Even with the other vocalists trying to take as much weight off of his shoulders as they could, he was still responsible for far too much. Plus, being completely Self-taught and unable to train his vocals properly was a waste of HIS own "potential" and made him feel sub par in the position. Because despite how amazing he was, he would have been insurmountably better had he had the proper training.) Speaking of training, there was indeed a member of VocalRacha who didn't already have two Main titles within the group, and also had some real "Natural Talent". However, it's very important for fans to understand that at the time, Seungmin wasn't up to par with Han. And Han did the group and Seungmin a massively amazing kindness when he took up that position from October 2019 all the way till Stray Kids competed on "Kingdom: Legendary War". On which, as we all know, Seungmin represented SKZ in the Vocal unit of the Mayfly supergroup in the legendary performance of "Love Poem". It was AFTER this performance that BangChan OFFICIALLY declared Seungmin the Main Vocalist of Stray Kids. Basically, it was in that performance that Seungmin proved that he was ready to take over the Main Vocalist position from Han. A promotion that was very well deserved, because in the time since Woojin's departure and Kingdom, whilst Han held down the bulk of the group vocals, Seungmin was taking rather extensive vocal training. Not only was he working extremely hard to improve quickly, he was also taking it very seriously. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, he was taking every extra lesson he could, his coach said he NEVER missed a single one, and he even went as far as avoiding air conditioning in the summer and choosing function over fashion in the winter, all to protect his voice and keep from getting sick. All of which, I firmly believe, was not only his way to showing 3RACHA (specially Han) that he took this seriously, but also as a way to showing Han how thankful he was for the opportunity to ready himself and for nit rushing him, or ever making him feel guilty for having not been prepared and the extensive amount of time that it takes to complete such an endeavor properly... Today, Seungmin is a truly wonderful vocalist that the group is incredibly proud of. And although it took time, he's also becoming a Vocalist that this fandom is finally starting to show the respect he deserves. (Although, I personally think that was only ever lacking, because he had yet to become the confident main character that he also is now.) My point, of course, is that back in the beginning of 2020 none of this had yet to occur. The reality was quite a bit different then, and it wasn't until the Kingdom competition that Seungmin obtained his new position. And it was only made possible because of teamwork, and the dedicated and intensive hard work of our resident Ace of a Rapper, Producer, Vocalist and Dancer by the name of Han Jisung. So THAT, my dear STAY, Is why in the comments of a reaction to the videos documenting the first massive showcase that SKZ held after Woojin left, there's so many people praising him. Ultimately, that's the situation that led to Han being the "Main Character" on that stage. Specially as far as the line distribution is concerned, as well as the truly spectacular performance that he in particular put on. Even more so due to the fact that our boy did this out of necessity and not desire. Considering that an individual with social anxiety issues would never purposefully do such a thing, I believe makes the fact that he did so for every one of stages in their District 9: Unlock tour truly unbelievable.

since the last album released befor their 2019 district 9 tour was yellow wood, i think you should at least try to know/have listened to the oddinary (ofc), noeasy, in life/go live, and levanter albums, as well as know their main title tracks before the concert. plus if you have extra time, listen through the skz 2021 album since they released that last year (i also think you have already listened to pretty much all of the songs on the skz 2020 album just on your own here on yt :)

Japan showcase always has the best camera works for kpop concert ^^ the only bad thing that there're no fancams when in Japan TT.TT they're very strict abt this

[@melaniereacts]

Ahhhhhh they are strict are they?? Damn!! But hey at least we have this amazing content 😍😍😍

[@linqjai]

[@annyeonghaseyongbok5200]

Hello Melanie !! I'm newly subscribed to your channel and I really love your reactions to the kids ❣️❣️❣️ Their live vocals in this showcase were incredible. SKZ will be touring in less than 3 days and I hope we get to see the My Pace version that has a dance break. It's basically I.N doing a special move and the rest will copy him, it was so cute. Maybe you can find a collection of it on twitter. Thanks for reaction

[@melaniereacts]

Ohhhh I cannot wait to start seeing concert clips on youtube! and I am soooooo excited to watch their concert online this weekend wooooo!! Thanks so much for subscribing xx

[@vioviyant1425]

16:56 there is a fact that jisung's high note in my pace is even higher than the original song ... and, if possible i would like to ask to react stray kids quiz song because maybe with this, we get to know more about the stray kids music genre :D

[@karlafernanda529]

I think it's not higher but he used a full chest voice instead of falsetto, so it sounds very powerful. btw, I'm not a musician, I just repeated what I heard 😅

[@stay1147]

I am YOU is also one of my favorite skz songs! I love the message, but i won't lie, i like the 'dance ver' more than 'ballad ver'

[@melaniereacts]

It’s SO good!!!! But I am opposite to you I definitely prefer the ballad version 🙈 but my favourite type of music is ballad style 😍

[@laurenh6668]

Ah you missed my fave moment at 17:04, Seungmin's shocked picachu face at Han's high note 😆🤣. I love these vids, the quality is incredible! I also love the way Lee Know casually points his mic at Bangchan to sing without warning near the end of My Pace haha. He reacted so quickly 😂

[@harliyana]

You made me want to buy the online ticket!!! I am working that night but I want to watch it so bad now! I think I should just buy the online concert tix!

[@melaniereacts]

Well if you want to watch it back with me I’ll be posting it onto my patreon ❤️❤️❤️

[@qwzm_skz]

I really want to you to react to international fans singing along with them loudly in other concerns like in malanie where fanchants where the loudest

[@stayinfin8]

Astronaut is a gem, one of my fav song from them

[@jnsnt9002]

my guess is they'll have performances for oddinary, noeasy and a few songs from go live era (since they never got to do proper tour the last 3 years)

[@melaniereacts]

Omg I am SO excited!!!!

[@chrissyy89]

MELANIE!!! 😭💀 I'm not even 9min in and im SCREAMING lol. This makes me wanna be there in person so bad 😭😭 I literally live right on the boarder of the states (NB, Canada), yet I can't afford the tickets + the travel. It's devastating lol. I already have my own beyondlive ticket, but I WILL BE THERE TO WATCH WITH YOU GUYS AS WELL. I atleasy need to see this with friends! Lmao. Thank you for streaming with us! See you bright and early (for me) on the weekend! Add: Ive reached hellavator now: It's not normal that I'm crying lol. Im too excited 🙃

[@melaniereacts]

Hahahaha omg you are so cute!!! I am SOOOO excited for this weekend 🙈🙈🙈

[@AmazedbyGrace95]

I feel like i saw some video of Chan where he said that he was annoyed with tucking in his shirts and trying to get them to stay tucked while dancing So he and his stylists settled on crop tops. And he works hard for those abs! It'd be a shame to hide them. Oof, if you think these camera angles and moves are bad.... Have you watched anything from their performances at the Dubai expo this year? The camera people and directing team didn't understand the assignment and my brain hurts just thinking about watching it again. I can't believe I get to see them live in person in 2 months. 😩 I will probably cry. My mind has been racing trying to imagine what songs they'll be performing. They always seem so powerful on stage and it will be overwhelming I'm sure. 3racha (at the least Chan) do all of their own remixes/arrangments i think for performances and award shows which is so dope.

[@melaniereacts]

Ahhhhhhh I am SOOOOO excited that you get to see them live!!!!!! Take lots of videos 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Thank you for the reaction, please make a reaction to Stray Kids "MANIAC" Performance | The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and Stray Kids "MANIAC" Performance | MTV Fresh Out

[@meistaskz00]

I'm not sure if the other versions of their songs are available on Spotify...that "I am you ballad version" was only performed during that time (correct me if I'm wrong). They do this special versions for performances and concerts like last year when they did thunderous Christmas and hero versions P.S. I think you've reacted to most of their title tracks and some b-sides that were connected to the storyline and that's where you heard the "I am You", maybe "Astronaut" and others. I remember the long video where you compiled a lot of their songs to try to connect their storyline. Lastly, I think they'd perform some of their older songs too, their last live concert was laventer era.

[@melaniereacts]

OMG I need I am you ballad version 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@Noni-dd3mt]

thank you ❤️‍🩹

[@MissYellowCat]

Well, if you didn't check out stray kids astronaut it has a mv for future reference

[@tsukishirou]

it does feel like a long time since you do SKZ videos but it's not THAT long actually 😂 i'm so excited for the concert and thank you for streaming it 🥺 ngl i am you will forever be in my top 3 SKZ songs of all times, i just really love it i sent you a link to SKZ district 9 unlock hope you'd watch that i mean it's super long but yeah 😂😂 at least in your own time if not reacting to it

[@melaniereacts]

Thanks for that link!! Definitely keen to check it out 😍😍😍 Ahhh I’m seriously so excited for this weekend

[@tsukishirou]

@@melaniereacts anytime!! it's really good but lemme warn you it's a bit sad towards the end, also i first watched that during hyunnie's hiatus so the whole concert kinda made me sadder, but aside from that it's so much fun to watch~

I AM YOU changed everything! My fav song of SKZ 🥰

[@melaniereacts]

Omg seriously! How good is it 😍

[@matthewtrocinski7926]

i got tickets for the chicago concert on july 1st. ill have to take some videos and get ahold of you in patreon. im thinking they might also have songs from the noeasy album as well since they couldnt tour. at least i hope so

[@melaniereacts]

Thank you for your reaction🫶 Sadly, their names aren’t included in the fanchants😅 (But in the thunderous fanchant, we can call changbin’s name!!) When we do fanchants, our role is just become a rapper. Seriously, it’s hard..
