[@amenikabtni1506]

I'm late because I didn't know your channel existed but now I'm here, please accept my vote 🙏 I vote for Black Suit by Super Junior 👑

[@nehayadav772]

You must react to all episodes or clips of knowing bros when SuJu came to show. SuJu is most hilarious groups and also with members around you will see different vibe of Heechul. We will be waiting.

[@272Iman]

Black suit for me!! The vocals>>>

[@sandman3384]

Yesung sooooooooo underrated.

[@ElfBlinkMe]

If vocals is also included in the categories then Super Junior is definitely the first. Their live performances are so good which shows they're great performers.

[@hyunjae315]

Super Junior's vocal and concept are the best for me. Their live vocals are ON TOP!

[@adrinarashad]

I like the Stray Kids but Super Junior are on another level. They’ve been together for two decades & they have KRY, three of the best vocalists in kpop. Suju aren’t the King of Hallyu for nothing, you know.

[@Inuinoo]

beside as singer, suju members are famous in entertainmemt industry as mc, actor, even director. they were set as project group in their early debut.

[@sejisoujirou]

sj wins undoubtedly their vocals and concepts can never be beaten, esp. 2 out of 3 vocals were enlisted to militsry services and their vocals are still insane in this song! Whole group vocals indeed. Just vocals and super vocals on top. and their live performance is great, i means real live

[@Lady_Diana663]

I see Super junior then I click.. I'm loving them since 2009.. they debuted in 2005 and still together until now... their vocals is an another level... we don't need to be the winner.. just see they are all still together it's give us happiest

[@kloudie99]

Black suit is superior honestly

[@cherrybxmb18]

for me it’s suju at least for this matchup. black suit was one of the songs that got me hooked on kpop. it’s iconic and the song is definitely more listenable.

[@Pos1t1veThinking]

Love both songs, but SuJu wins because of the the overall musicallity and the vocals (even though 2 of the 3 main vocals were in the military at this time).

[@sandman3384]

True true!!!! Firgot this as am obsessed with yesung!

[@alejandragc4227]

Yesung did so good on this song.

[@fii744]

The legend Super Junior... They have been in the K-Pop industry for 19 years.

[@CiociaDonia]

SuJu all the way with Black Suit even missing 2 main vocalist (who were is military) the song is amazing, vocals are superior!!! ❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️

[@shiwonest]

It's the first time i listened to Stray Kids, 'Maniac' is pretty good ! But Super Junior all the way ! Their harmonies !!! and i think you guys should watch live performance if you really want to rate their performance....

[@noorshafiqah2282]

Super junior definitely!! The vocals 🤌🏻

[@fiariyanti4225]

Super junior Do you mean Siwon? yes, he's part of the grup

[@наталья-м4т6э]

Super Junior "Black Suit"

[@joc.4992]

CLC did this cover on Mnet in China? Or somewhere else don't remember.

[@miamore8400]

Super Junior is hits differently 💙

[@milenarosa5162]

Super Junior finesse is top tier. Their music is so unique and they are such greta singers, performers and overall entertainer.s Black Suit is a masterpiece in kpop and will never be replicated.

[@joyta100]

Super Junior, vocals 😊

[@Nikitha-gb9vs]

For me it was, Vocals--- Super Junior (I believe vocals must be the most important in a kpop group and Suju are just vocal kings) Replay--- Super Junior ( This is simply one of their best comebacks) Concept--- Super Junior ( There was clearly a story line that really matched the song.) Performance--- Super Junior ( Blacksuit has a cool choreography while Maniac choreography needs many fancy camera movements. Both groups are great performers btw.) Hook---Stray kids ( Can't get their chorus part out of my mind it's too catchy. Stray kids never disappoints when its comes to making catchy songs) Overall it's SUPER JUNIOR.

[@sandman3384]

Could not have said it any better!! Bravo

[@halasilawi381]

I mean it's my 2 favourite group ( am an Elf since 2012 and Stay since 2021) but super junior always hits different so it's Super Junior they called the kings of hallyu wave for a reason 🥹💙

[@MKCLTL]

Omg we're almost the same. I'm an elf since 2011 and a stay since 2020, but Super Junior has something really different and special for me.

[@halasilawi381]

@@MKCLTL That so sweet 💙💙 Yeah Super Junior will always be special 🫂💙

[@joannafisher3391]

Being Shinee fans how can you not know there seniors . Has to be super junior all the way even with out two of there three main vocals . Due to them being in the military

[@MsRDee]

For me Super Junior...The vocals and adlibs make the song amazing...Black Suit is the best.... Back to taste😅

[@nmixxchange]

this swing electro hit me on diferent level so i choose super junior, good dig bro, i dont know this song exist

[@zaighumali3246]

My favorite ever super junior song! Black suit

[@ihsan2837]

super junior definitely! and yes siwon is the actor that you’re talking about, he’s the center and visual of super junior

[@WatchingSundays]

Yes! Crazy he's in all these kdramas now!

[@AnaLeahMillendez_EXOL_ELF]

SUPER JUNIOR !!! ..I think SJ in general doesn't use much effects in their videos..I think the reason is that the afency just doesn't do that much for them compated to their newer groups..hihi..or as to their earoy yrs.. they r the 2nd oldest grp in SM & I think 4th generaply in kpop..one who is aftive..but actually, the most active ones all throught the 19 yrs.. no breaks unlike other grps.. Black Suit is definitely 1 of the top fave somgs frm them in general kpop fans.. I probably agree to 1st 3 categories but in performance, I vote for SJ, the choreo wasn't hihhlighted much in the MV sadpy, it was a little bit more focused ok the storyline..but it has such great performance..it is actually is 1 of the faves of idols to cover, the chorus part, a lot of dance line idols loved & danced to it..also, u heard how it built up at the end & the strong vocal flex throgh continued adlibs & the end part w/ the piano & vocals & the turn & flip of the suit..iconic! so btw, u probably saw most of them.. sole are aftors but generally 5he group is known for heing the kings of variety shows..here r list of shows - Knowing Bros - Heechul & Shindong - Weekly Idol (2020-23) - Eunhyuk - I Can See Your Voice - Leeteuk ..they are everywhere..they always Mc showcases, events, & award shows..hope u discover SJ too..they r being prejudiced by a lot of new kpop fans coz of their age & generation & are generally underrated simce they must think they r just funny.. they have a wide-range of genre in their discography so there is something for everyone..& if u like early 2000s music, u'll love them too..nostalgiv in older albums.. thanks!

[@ttao3198]

Our Super Junior💙

[@mnayeraldo2342]

super junior definitely

[@reneebernardo6698]

super junior vocals and vibe is totally unique. you know it is super junior while straykids’ sound is like any other bg of later gen

[@Catnatti1]

Super Junior. I love the cinematic nature of the MV. Only category Stray kids won for me was the hook, because it is very memorable. Performance was tied because the combination of acting/vocal/dancing in Black Suit just had more impact for me than the Maniac dance breakdown, but in all fairness I'm vocal focused so intense choreo is wasted on me. I can't really see myself replaying Maniac, but I can see why people like it. Felix's voice is fascinating.

[@Detnaq]

Since this is gonna be more on preference in the end of the day for my non musical knowledge self, i prefer the easy to listen and replayable song that I can jam to during work or while driving so super junior black suit for this round :)

[@DhuhaAbdulmunem]

What do you think about watching both songs live and then decide again? Because black suit live is amazing with performance

[@ZainZain-ng1ev]

Super junior amazing gotta 🎉

[@rodolfoyee4269]

Super Junior, only.

[@meredithhernandez7168]

SUPER JUNIOR

[@zaynafanfehmeed]

I remember when the black suits were on stage and all the idols were enjoying the exciting vocals and arrangements

[@ElfBlinkMe]

It's definitely Super Junior! Overall Blacksuit mv had vocals, concept and performance. Actually Super Junior has the best vocals in k-pop.

[@ejemima]

LOL, not people recognising SUPER JUNIOR members from everywhere else other than kpop 😂 They are a very ingrained part of the South korean entertainment industry, as actors and MC/hosts on several dramas and variety shows - they arent called 'variety kings' for nothing 😉 As a 3year old dedicated elf (Super Junior fan) and a casual enjoyer of Stray Kids' music, I actually agree with your points 😉 As for the MV, its Stray Kids for me. Stray Kids makes some of the most surreal amd interesting MV's and they are WILD performers! While I do enjoy 'Maniac', its not a song I could listen to on repeat - thats Super Junior for me. Stray Kids are very diverse and talented in their music, they have one of the best rappers, they got Felix's crazy deep vocals and fact that they write amd produce a lot of their music themselves is just amazing! Stray Kids' music is very hard hitting amd aggressive. They often have a certain message or deep emotions they want to convey, through their music, which to me, while theres amazing music and talent, it's not something I'd play on repeat, because its too "heavy". However, its the oppesite with Super Junior's music. With Super Junior youre always guranteed a good mood, because of their infectious energy. It's either a party or a soft, warm feeling - it gives you energy and help you relax at the same time. Plus well, they ARE veterans and OG's of the industry, which is evident with their vocals and harmonies. The maturity and security of their vocals is just something you can't find with a group half their age (Super Junior had been active for 13years, when Stray Kids debuted in 2018 or more like, 'Black Suit'was released the year that Stray Kids was being formed through their survival show😅) This was the most objective I could be, about two groups, that I honestly do enjoy and like 😊

[@sandman3384]

Perfect!!

[@pearlsapphireblueelf]

Super Junior all the way!

[@drkickyoface]

for specifically these two songs it goes to suju for me, I think the only category stray kidz takes is performance. no disrespect towards skz I think they have a lot of amazing music and if this had been a song like gods menu this would've been way harder to call but maniac has always felt kinda gimmicky to me, it's the type of song that hits really hard at first but after like 15 listens the charm kinda wears off. black suit on the other hand is a rare instance of a timeless kpop song imo. with how much trend chasing there is in the kpop industry it's extremely rare for a song to not show its age by the time it's around 5 years old ESPECIALLY when it comes to title tracks, hell super junior themselves are victims of this just go listen to their title tracks from the early 2010's, but black suit is around 7 years old now and still sounds like it could've come out last year.

[@fromEPtoFW]

Stray kid’s raps are top tier but Super Junior’s vocals stand out so much on this one and I loved their MV concept. HOWEVER it’s Stray Kids over all

[@annabellej9429]

What is also impressive about Super Junior's vocals in this video is that, when they released this song, 2 of their 3 main vocals were actually away doing their military service

[@fansyesung]

Super Junior for me. For a vocal is Suju. And Yesung only the main vocal in this song.

[@jackelinerodrigues4423]

Maniac is such a great song, it’s them for me

[@pinklotus3809]

Super Junior for sure

[@ivethr1435]

I actually agreed with the outcome of the first results, but Super Junior really does give that X factor when it comes in terms of that bridge. Yesung just goes off and overall feels like it's special. I don't think any Super junior song will win the performance points besides burn the floor, but they make up for it in all the categories. Being dance centered is really a generational difference. Most 2gen groups will be more vocal heavy. Final vote Super Junior

[@Matt-ss2cp]

Black Suit is my favorite suju title track but not my favorite MV because I feel like it’s confusing unless you don’t rewatch it a couple more times lol Hook and replay - super junior Concept and performance - stray kids (although black suit live performance is top tier) So my x-factor leads to my biased vote of super junior which will help them out just a little in this voting even though they probably won’t move on 😂 (it is also my favorite song from my favorite boy group so I think that’s just how good I find the song)

[@milamagalhaes5137]

Super Junior has my vote. I looked at all the comments, yes I did that. And by the majority of votes, victory belongs to SuJu. My suggestion for SuJu's next • Mamacita •Don't Wait My vote goes to Black Suit, because as a whole the mv deserves more points, I really like the concept of stealing the suit which was super fun. In terms of music (after all it is a music video) I also vote for SuJu. In the choreography is Stray Kids, the choreographies became more elaborate with the change of generations. And finally, the music video that makes me most want to watch again is Black Suit.

[@nadrah1995]

super junior

[@alejandrasar66]

SUPER JUNIOR >>>💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

[@biyinglin2651]

ELF🎉🎉🎉SUJU🎉🎉🎉

[@rodolfoyee4269]

Super Junior,, the Only group for me,, In this song 2 of the main vocals is in Military. Live performance is amazing cause Live vocals of Super Junior is a top tier.

[@wntrbll]

I really like your opinion for both songs. It's easy to accept and very objective. Both groups have different strengths and deserve appreciation. If there's a second part in versus this, I would suggest MAMACITA by Suju vs THUNDEROUS by Straykids. Or maybe BURN THE FLOOR by Suju vs GOD'S MENU/SILENT CRY by Straykids 🙏

[@fathianfikri9379]

Super junior 💙

[@atheera8507]

I love Stray Kids but for me Super Junior for the win 🔥🔥 since Black suit release till now it's in my top 5 Kpop songs 👑👑🔥🔥 It's so good

[@JAMoore-zz3ki]

About Stray Kids: 3Racha - Stray Kids' main writing and production unit, consisting of Bang Chan (the leader of Stray Kids), Changbin and Han (two of their main rappers) Bang Chan was an idol trainee at JYP for several years. While waiting to debut with a group, he formed a rap group called 3Racha with two other trainees, Changbin and Han. They wrote and produced their own music. JYP gave Bang Chan the highly unusual opportunity to help develop his own idol group (which they did through a reality show, but Bang Chan had WAYYYY more say in picking the members than pretty much any other idol trainee in the industry), and when Stray Kids was formed 3Racha was absorbed into that group. 3Racha still performs on occasion. Several of their songs / videos are posted on KZbin. They write and produce (and often compose/arrange) the vast majority of the music for Stray Kids. But over the years the other members have also gotten involved in writing and production. ---------------------------------- Stray Kids debuted in 2018. They started with 9 members (in their early videos, you'll see 9 people performing) but Woojin left in Oct 2019. Stray Kids have been an 8-member group ever since. ---------------------------------- DanceRacha - their main dance unit (Hyunjin, Felix (the deep-voiced guy), and Lee Know). But all 8 members dance very well. ---------------------------------- VocalRacha - their main vocal unit (Seungmin and I.N). But again, all 8 members have great singing voices and they switch around on lead vocals, depending on the song. ---------------------------------- Main rappers - Changbin, Han, Hyunjin and Felix - however unlike many K-pop groups, all 8 members can and have rapped, depending on the song. ---------------------------------- Languages: Bang Chan (the leader of the group) and Felix (deep-voiced guy) are both Korean-Australian, so English is their first language. The other 6 members speak English with varying degrees of fluency. All 8 members are fluent in both Korean and Japanese. The group can sing and rap in all three languages. ---------------------------------- Not all of their music is super hard all the time. Stray Kids also write / sing beautiful ballads and have also written a few songs for K-drama, anime and video game soundtracks. They also collab with / produce for other idol groups and individual artists from Korea, Japan, China, Thailand and the U.S.

[@Vc_el]

Super junior ❤❤❤❤

[@TheEunice25]

Suju no doubt

[@jamdacles]

SuJu Black Suit is great. I listen to it until now.. Still love it as always..

[@joc.4992]

From the looks of all the comments looks like Super Junior will break the tie.

[@noahrichards872]

that's what I thought too but apparently stray kids was the final winner... a little weird 🤔 but both songs were amazing so I don't really mind

[@StaySiren]

I will provide some context for Maniac, if that’s okay? A lot of their videos have a storyline that starts in their album trailer, and in this one, we see Felix interacting with a version of the rest of the group until he’s asked if he wants to be Oddinary (not Ordinary), and is pushed off of a building. This leads to this place where we see two versions of them with the two skylines, some doing mildly mundane things, and then we hear the bird fly by, released from its cage and the drill sound, which is a play on having a ‘screw loose’ and things get a bit crazier visually, and then it goes back to normal again when the bird is caged and the last drill sound tightens the screw. You’ll likely find that a lot of Stray Kids music videos are very interpretive and big and maybe a bit confusing, but they have a very complex, overarching lore. Funny enough, their lore is said to be linked with Itzy and NMIXX’s. I’m still untangling it all, and I don’t know itzy’s lore super well yet.

[@WatchingSundays]

Wow thank you!😳

[@StaySiren]

@@WatchingSundays Look, Stay have been confused on the whole lore since God’s Menu. There’s at least three or four copies of Skz, including the originals, there’s the antagonists, the one’s with super powers and I’m pretty sure there’s supposed to be a set that’s story line ended because they are in space now… I’m just as confused as everyone else.

[@prmtv]

Stray Kids for me I really enjoyed Black Suits though and have added it to my playlist Deep voice was Felix, he can go deeper and also has a really nice falsetto. His range is crazy.

[@coelharebelde]

SUPER JUNIOR 💙💙💙

[@joyta100]

Vocalmente me gustó más Super Junior.

[@greenboucher6372]

Stray Kids. I personally think it's hard to vote on only a song but Stray Kids win this for me 💚

[@SJKRY]

I prefer vocal so of course Super Junior. Blacksuit also much auditory friendly for me😅

[@YunahKUnnie]

Yes, they're all part of SUJU ! :) It's just that they are all doing a lot more of other activities, like acting / hosting and such. And here, Heechul only appeared a little bit, because he has an old injury and doesn't dance the full songs because of that !

[@bp0719twenty]

Maniac hands down for me! Stray Kids make unique songs and i’ve never heard anything like Maniac before. I love all the layers and elements they add to their songs.

[@moonnim9543]

It happened again, recognizing a member or more without knowing that they're suju members :D I love stray kids, but tbh Super Junior called the hallyu KING for a reason, right? They're just so authentic, well balance (talent wise n the members chemistry). Speak about talent, no one in newer gen come close to suju KRY (debatable, but yeah). Eunhyuk as main dancer can match younger idol power n sharpness easily, it can be seen in many dance challenges. Overall performance, well, we have 2 performance directors who direct every suju concert. The point is, stand super junior for a better life!

[@bumijenamawamaria]

Black suit all the way, the story line of the MV, the melody and vocal, the music is rich of instruments. So for anyone who enjoy art will choice this

[@vanessadelarosa5715]

I started in to k pop with super Junior in 2008 in was my fav group throug all those years and now my fav group is Stray Kids. SO I FEEL SUPER HAPPY WITH THIS VIDEO. GREAT

[@putu2512]

"Maniac" stuck in my head😅

[@AmigaQ08]

Vocals. And black suit chorus hits also the dance break if you see it live. I listen to Skids casually and I think Maniac is their best song. But Yesung voice VS the whole world wouldn’t change a thing

[@phylisbrown1181]

Stray kids. I completely understand their concept. The song has a meaningful message, an important one.

[@chaengi]

Maniac is an iconic song, so I'm going with Stray Kids

[@gie8366]

Love the first song. But it's still SUPER JUNIOR for me 💙 Black Suit was released when two main vocals in military. Yet they still nail it! And I'm telling you, yes, Siwon the actor is a Suju, Heechul from Knowing Bros is a suju. They're all rounders so it's understandable if you see them a lot in some Korean varshow / programs 😂💙

[@na_s]

Siwon is the VISUAL, CENTER AND FACE of the group!! He debuted as an ACTOR 🤩

[@rahaeelf1510]

[@Melwithme]

For me , it gotta be straykids. When it first came out it was an certified banger for me. Superjunior is defenitly a banger group but compared with these songs, Straykids take the win for me.🫶 Hook:skz Replay:skz Concept:suju Preformance:skz X-factor: skz

[@isuckatusernamess]

16:41 if you thought maniac was powerful can't wait to see reactions to more skz in the future possibly. they are crazy when it comes to performing. and, their choreo is always very ~different~. Their most recent comeback LALALALA def shows the performance aspect of them off very well, as well as the previous comeback before that (S-Class). their music videos are also always crazy

[@Mangoescaramel]

ofc its super junior!!!

[@melodylawrence4373]

Stray Kids all the way. Song has a great message and the video is new and innovative. You can't help but turn it up when it comes on

[@marynahrichina5240]
