A RETIRED DANCER'S POV- Irene&Seulgi "Naughty" Choreography Video
WTF DOES “OG KPOP STAN" EVEN MEAN?!⬇️
Supposedly "original gangster”, can be seen as “old generation", personally viewed as “old-school”.🤓 I’ve been into Korean music since 1998 when I was 15, and using “kpop stan” is more catchy (super cringe or not) than “person who’s listened to Korean music since 1998”, amirite or AMIRITE.😂

XTRA 411-
I became an avid Korean music aka Kpop listener/lover since 1998. Korean and rap music were my coping mechanisms from the bullying I experienced in middle school through high school and my love for the genre has stuck by me ever since. The genre, along with artists like Michael Jackson, Aaliyah, Britney Spears, etc. then motivated me into becoming a hip-hop/pop dancer, which was a very active lifestyle for me literally throughout my whole 20s. (XTRA DANCE 411- I danced for, trained, and performed with 4 different dance teams. My first and main dance team who started my "dance life" was with Marvelous Motion (who later became IaMmE, America's Best Dance Crew Season 6 Champions). A lot of my dance training came from Di "Moon" Zhang, Brandon "747" Harrell, Emilio Dosal, SOREAL, and from attending many dance classes in Houston and L.A. (from amazing local talent to widely-known talents such as Parris Goebel, Keone Madrid, Kyle Hanagami, Lando Wilkins, Mister Wiggles, Rino Nakasone)
Unfortunately, I took a huge break from Korean music and dance around 2015 when I was officially diagnosed with lupus nephritis, seizures, and a heart murmur. I was receiving and battling years of chemotherapy and dialysis along with taking 32 pills a day, so I had no mental/emotional/spiritual room to keep myself updated with Kpop or dance. Luckily, I'm in remission now. That doesn't mean that lupus and seizures are gone because I am still very capable of frequent flare-ups if I don't take care of myself, but I make sure to do so enough to manage and live as "normally" as possible. I am also not capable of being an active dancer like I used to be due to my chronic illnesses, but I’m still a dancer in my mind, heart, and soul.
ALSO! Just to be SUPER clear- me calling myself an "OG kpop stan" does NOT mean that anyone who's listened to kpop after me is inferior or less-than. A kpop lifestyle is a kpop lifestyle regardless of time. Please don’t get that sh*t twisted.😛 Sooo I am currently and actively keeping a weather eye on the KPOP horizon and also using what I’ve learned from my dance years to give credit where it’s due!

“Naughty is one of the best choreography I’ve seen in kpop industry” Yes! I couldn’t agree more!
So underrated too! The fact that Naughty didn’t get an award for choreography is ridiculous to me.
@@nikegrrl5105 so true, and the views. Seriously the choreographers just got this one perfect , and the artists where up to the task. How could it NOT win award for choreo is beyond me. Also, anybody who watches Kpop and like dances how can you not watch this one ... 15m views... seriously! Just the other day somebody saying some choreo by (insert your fav 4th gen girlgroup here) was very hard. Im sorry but NO. Very few Girlgroup choreos are VERY HARD. THIS one probably on the top.
Not to mention that Seulgi is significantly bigger than Irene. She's taller and has longer limbs, this precision of theirs just gets better the more you think about it.
@@riffgroove So, that's what, two, three centimeters? Looking at them, you see Seulgi is bigger than Irene, by quite a bit.
ASeul subunit was a cultural reset. The discography. The choreography. And they had the chemistry that was honed in from pre-debut times. If they ever make a comeback as a subunit, blessed are us to be alive in the same timeline 🤣😂
yessir need aseul2 asap
This choreography is so difficult that I wonder if they would ever be able to do it on tour. It feels like something you'd have to practice every day or you'd forget.
not really, maybe some details yes have to be reminded but the hard parts (like the chorus) are more stucked to the muscle memory since it take longer to practice as well, i learned the coreography last year and since then i haven't practice it again but i still remember every bit of it
@@theomorais4557 Mentally remembering and muscle-memory are different things. Could you PERFORM in front of an audience, RIGHT NOW (after doing proper warm-up stretching)?
Anyone can attempt to learn the choreo, but then add stage presence AND singing like that on top of it?? Irene&Seulgi truly are a powerhouse duo 👏🏼
seulgi actually still learning tutting bc she fell in love with it (she shares some covers in her Instagram)
Also Irene! So i really hope we can see more tutting in the next Aseul comeback 😍
This just proves how amazing they both are. I think Irene's look in this video is just the best in my mind. Nothing snazzy, just some sweats and working hard ( no Wendy to distract me either). I saw a picture of one of them doing the point of view tutting shot in practice. It looked like the one with the camera was maybe the choreographer and she was holding the camera in her mouth to get the shot!
Something I really like about this choreo is that Seulgi and Irene are allowed to just go HAM. They can show the Full extent of their skill and talent. I feel like group dances are usually made with the audience in mind, like "can people learn this dance? Let's make sure it's easy enough to pick up". But here S & I were just allowed to cut loose! Not many people are going to learn or master this dance, but i actually Like it. It's cool to see exactly how skilled and talented k-pop stars actually are, and i wish more of the top dancers would do this sort of thing. It reminds me a little of After School, where they would learn all kinds of new dances for each comeback, including tap- and pole dancing.
It is a crime that this did not win the best choreography award
Absolutely. Somebody is a crook. Everything about this was absolutely world-class. Find me something SO UNIQUE and powerful as this. No? Then there's something WRONG with the system, because this did not win.
Remember when seulgi said they prepared naughty choreography for months because they started learning tutting from basis 🤩
I’ve noticed that as far as reactions only dancers really give Naughty choreography it’s just due. Dancers know how difficult those moves are to execute, not to mention being perfectly in sync to another person/group, mirroring their moves, hitting the angles to the beat, giving face making it look effortless, and if that wasn’t enough they have to sing on top of all that?! Thank you for recognizing the talent and effort Irene, Seulgi, the choreographers, and dancers put into this. Such an in depth and informative reaction. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
IRENE best girl
EVERY TIME they preform the chorus the choreography is different which makes it even harder to remember. This is definitely one of the best performances in music in general. ASeul both smashed this, couldn't have been any better!!!
i can't get over this choreography! have a nice weekend btw
You too!💖
Naughty has the greatest choreography ever!
You were talking about muscle memory. In this video Irene and Seulgi are doing something VERY COMPLICATED and fast. As far as muscle memory for most humans, I think you nailed it. You can walk without thinking about it after a couple of years of life (or less; took me until I was fifteen months old to start walking, took my boys about the same time but took my sister only nine months and my daughter took only about ten months). I had heard that this dance and tutting choreo took these two ladies something like five months to get it down pat. PROFESSIONAL, NON-STOP practice, that's all I can say. I have only the highest respect and admiration for these two, ESPECIALLY after this. You are right, this is like nothing I had ever seen before, absolutely unique. It has thrown a lot of dancers and even some tutting masters because these two were tutting AND dancing in the same performance!
This is by far the most impressive dance in kpop🔥 i mean its rare that u see this type of choreography in kpop huge props to seulgi and irene🖤
Not just K-Pop. This has to be one of the top-most technically difficult pieces to perform EVER, from ANY and ALL genre'!
This reaction was so worth the wait.
And it still remained mystery as to why this choreography wasn't even nominated as Best Perfomance from award shows last year.
Because awards shows based judgement from money- you know voting. No appreciation of art, the real thing.
Love this performance, can't recall a better choreo anywhere though. 💃🏽💃🏽 Thanks for your insight!
This has to be one of my favorite Kpop song/video. Love it!
PLEASE REACT TO IRENE AND SEULGI PRE DEBUT PERFORMANCE OF BE NATURAL!!!! THEY WERE A PART OF A SM PROJECT CALLED SM ROOKIES AND THE VIDEO HAS MILLIONS OF VIEWS
They were probably tutting in their sleep for months just to get that muscle memory 😆😭
They're the best dance duo! No one comes close to them
Irene & Seulgi they are like born to dance together 💝💛 So Proud to our ASeul
Honestly for me this is the best choreography to ever exist, this type of dance it's beautiful yet very difficult
Seulgi posted a tutting video on her personal insta today
Literally tutting and singing I could never
im still shocked when this song release..im so mesmerized that i cant focus to the song..im so shocked😅😂 irene seulgi really have best chemistry..
Thank you so much for reacting to this even though you've watched it before. It's so satisfying and makes me happy to see others appreciating the performance and choreography to the fullest. This song, choreography and performance in general deserves more love, recognition and appreciation so thank you for doing this!
Their heights are different as Seulgi is taller than Irene, so the right angles and arm adjustment add the complexity of the whole choreography. No one should say that Irene is a weak dancer when she pulled this off.
My favorite choreography from 2020
For me, best duo chore ever...
amazing reaction! I'm always shocked watching the choreo also because it's incredible how perfectly it fits the song! how did they even think about doing this choreo for the song? incredible. I agree with you, cultural reset indeed.
Lord. Been that long since I got into your channel since that Monster/Naughty reaction. I’m happy to be a fan since then to now and forever!
Seulrene slayed it so much
This is now in kpop dance museum. You never get tired seeing this
Credits really to beatburgerjae and spella for this vision of making a whole tutting choreo and to Irene and Seulgi for the dedication god the hard work they put into this from learning the basics and still practicing up til now!!! Seulgi has uploaded a lot of covers there's also a lyrical cover! Irene too but she rarely updates so I hope we get to see one soon 💗💛
And this is the reaction video that I've enjoyed most in this channel. Woaah! Im not a dancer myself but I know how hard tutting is.. when it comes to dance choreo/practices. This channel is one of the best reaction video creator out there 💗
OMGGGG I've been waiting for you to react to this video for a looooong time, thank you!!!
I'm performing student in college that majors in choreography and tutting is the hardest dance. I was looking at my trainer while doing tutting like I was watching my teacher explaining math to me 😭 I think I'm going to fail this sem because of tutting
Naughty underrated af
THINA THE FEELS RELEASE TODAY.. MAKE SURE YOU REACT TO IT!
The way you describe tutting makes me.think it's the dance version of being a drummer
I saw the behind the scenes/behind the camera footage from when they did this on music shows and its so nuts I don’t see how they did this (without the camerawork angles) and make it look easy when I know its not at all 😭😭
It is such a crime that it has not been that recognized! The level of difficulty of this is just insane.
Amazing dancers all 3 of you ❤️
What I find amazing is that the chorus tutting choreo is all different everytime so that is like more to memorize and practice. Seulgi and Irene are amazing
You should see the Be Natural dance video that they did before debut.
They are incredible 😊 and few days ago Seulgi posted a tutting video in her IG. That is soo good 👍 You should watch that 🤩 and she said she will upload more very soon
I think "RV irene seulgi - Naughty" "Afterschool - first love" "SNSD - Genie" "Speed - Want U" is the dance that caught my attention a lot while following kpop
By far, this is the best dance practice I’ve ever seen!
Best duo choreo ever. Like ever ever.
I dont know why i think i've seen this video before~ but anyways~ i love the reaction as always
It's 5AM at my country but I can't sleep so I gonna watch this reaction
What impresses me the most about this is that they make it look so damn easy yet when I try I look the the inflatable balloons you see in car lots
Yoon from Stacy covered that song and she was amazing, you should look into it
You forgot to mention that they sing as well. 🤣
PERIODDDDDDDDDDDDDDD, i was so confused why you released this so late but idc i literally love this song and the choreo😩😩😩
If you are still looking for more Irene and Seulgi content, I would recommend their "EP2 - Irene" and "EP3 - Uncover" videos, especially for their performances.
Definitely deserving of Best Choreography awards !! Sadly, in K-pop the awards goes only to 'catchy' choreos 😭
2:32 THINA SHOWING OFF HER OWN SKILLS. Get it girl~
This song Naughty should be the new lead song for the ( KDrams --Cheongdam-dong Alice )
RV album reactions on Patreon ??
I hope no group or artist won best choreography over this song at kpop award shows ( I’m assuming that’s a category with how important choreography are to every song ). I still don’t understand how they didn’t perform this or Monster at the Mama Award show. Whoever is in charge of booking talent should be fired.
IM EARLY OMG IM SO EXCITED ❤️❤️
so i finished watching because i’d replay and honestly, your reactions are so amazing! i love how i learn mini things when you explain things. you’re probably my favorite youtuber. i was waiting for this!
yes, this choreography is soo good!!!
where'd u get that snake helix accessory
here to remind everyone that this song/choreo didn't even get nominated for "choreography of the year". still trust award shows?
Yeah, ireneXseulgi. Thank you thina
I honestly thought this was going to be 30+ minutes long and I'm sure you could have but yeah, got other content to make. I've seen a few live concert videos of them doing this and it's crazy how they can probably do this at will which just goes to show the dedication they've always had to their craft. Also, I'm going to credit ChungHa for this because that was the first I'd heard this but last year I recall you shouted out the backup dancers and in this one you shouted out the dancers so I'm hoping that's some new industry standard to recognize everyone on the stage as more of an equal and integral part (not to offend anyone whose ever gone by backup dancer). I'm sure ChungHa wasn't the first but it's the first for me so Queen gets credit.
still waiting for your reaction/analysis video to itzy's LOCO dance Practice and SWIPE Performance Video.
shouts out to @spella
My stupid self can never do this kind of dance. Like, how can they move their feet, hands and sing at the same time 🥲🥲🥲🥲
Please Reaction to HOT ISSUE - Icons
💜Thina💜
Now I know why Karina not really good at tutting. Her fingers are so tiny for tutting. This dance is very hard. I never see this kind before. SM always do something weird and new in Kpop every duo. Tutting need long hands and fingers. SeulRene is the best duo of SM.
Its hard to perform live..the choreo tho its too hard
