5:10 "1 million respect to the producer, his creativity is off the chart" pls why did I feel so proud hearing that 😭 let's go 3racha & Hot Sauce world domination ⚡
And hotsauce cuz they made the instrumentals with chan co-arranging :)
literary same I feel so proud eventho it's not about me 😭
Yep ain't nobody doing it like 3racha! 3racha world domination 👑👑👑
@@tapioooca5182 hot sauce?
@@idontknowwhattoputhere5434 yeah the producer they worked with
I dont understand most of the things u guys say cause I dont have a lot of knowledge bout music but boi I LOOOVE watching all the videos u guyz put out. I feel like Im learning things. I listen kpop songs more focused now cause I love watching your videos and go" yoo I noticed that too". Thank u sooo much for the amazing work, u guys are great!
YESSS!!!!
couldnt agree more
Yeah same i love how i can put a name to the things i notice by watching their videos even tho most of the time i still don't understand it fully lmao
this channel make me appreciate skz's music too and stan them completely. like, at first, i didn't get when people would say skz's music is one of a kind...but, after watching videos from this channel, i realized how interesting pop music can get and i also learned how to appreciate skz's music too 😔💝
Big mood
I didn't think I could be more impressed by Changbin's flow, but today I learned about fivelets 😮
I was not aware of how much of a boss he is
frr samee
Time stamp?

@@hibasubhan3890 thank youu
I just looked to the reaction schedule and thought Thunderous would be months later. I always love their reactions to Stray Kids so much, thank you.
Since our schedule is so backed up already, I'm trying to get reactions to recent releases out faster :')
@@ReacttotheK nice thanks
@@ReacttotheK thank you
@@ReacttotheK thanks umu
@@ReacttotheK thank u umu
This song is short but it packs a lot of variations, tricks, and magical moments. It has skz trademark/formula but not a copy paste. I really like what the arrangers did to leave blanks, add and subtract, and changing up rhythm with various sound samples. 3racha become more mature and sophisticated with their producing skill is thrilling to “hear” with each album and track. Chan said that his fave skz song is hellevator because it announced skz’s arrival. I’d say it’s his nostalgic speaking. Sorikkun is a lot more intricate and sonically interesting.
Me who is doing a dancer cover reading that short made me nearly cry. The song feels unending by the second chorus 😭😭🤣
I agree and this is exactly why I would die for an NCT 127 and skz collab 😩😩
ohmygod yasssss. i’m not even a STAY but this track is definitely in another level. thank you for reacting to this.
ah shit this makes me so proud as a STAY wth 😭💗 thank you so much for the support!
Aww thank for listening to this song I hope you listen to the whole album you might like it ❤️🍀❤️
I feel so touched if other people appreciates and acknowledges how good Stray Kids creates their music. Thank you so much.
You're not a STAY yet
please become a Stay alreadyyyyy
All the compliments about Changbin are making me so happy. This man is super talented and an incredible performer, so seeing him getting the recognition he deserves is amazing.
ReacttotheK being the main reason I've started to pay closer attention to the track and thus my quality of music listening improving and thereby my quality of LIFE IMPROVING!
Sameee!
Yesssssssssss
hearing the musicians dissect the song makes me appreciate it more.
I looove the use of traditional instruments in this song. It gives the track a fresh sound while retaining the signature SKZ taste
Same here! I think it gives the song a lot of depth and interesting elements~ also I love little nods to culture.
thank you for your effort
Now imagine Thunderous at an end of year award show. But with full traditional and live instruments. And traditional dancers. I. Would. Pass away.
Omg being MAMA the most important award still, what you wrote is my dream! Just like in the MV and with live instruments, it would be amazing and my heart isn't ready.
Daebak!!
Kinda happen now
@@enigwenuk2032 i wonder if shes still alive. Hahahaha
@@vincentdolido5437 😂 probably already passed
The way I have been waiting for this reaction cannot be overstated
samee😭
Same- 😭
I literally want that full album reaction so bad now-
ikr
Same
It's nice to hear other musicians' opinions about Thunderous, we always discover new things by listening to them.
when I thought that triplets were hard, changbin hits us with ✨ fivelets ✨
I agree with the rap parts, their beats, flow, their amazing breath control, the clarity. 3racha are so amazing in producing. They do not get recognized enough for their musicality.
Totally agreed! JYP’s secret weapon will always be 3racha 😌
3racha are going to be really successful in the future I'm saying it
Yeah I love how you are able to break it down in detail and know what exactly you are saying. I was really frustrated when I saw some haters making fun of Changbin's rap, because as someone who dabbled in music before, I can definitely tell he is on beat, but I simply cannot put into a legit explanation. Having someone who knows this craft comment on how impressive that was is really relieving. Thank you for this awesome reaction!
I think some people (if they're being honest and not just an anti looking for criticisms) don't realize that he's imitating a different style - a pansori singer. The musicians here picked it up and almost every Korean or Korean-American reactor I've seen recognized it
Everyone say hi to Chan: Hi Chan! This song it's grammy worthy.
When you guys explained about Changbin's fast and clear rapping, now I can't stop thinking about it and the insight you shared. when I first listened to Stray Kid's music, one thing that stuck out to me was how fast the rappers were. Now I'm obsessed with his rapping in this song lol
The mass appreciation for Changbin's rapping?? YES THANK YOU.
This song is the best, omfg.
i was being so attentive all the way through, and then absolutely lost it at "drumper"😭😭😭
When a skz song starts with a Bintro (when Changbin, the main rapper, starts the song), you know it'll be a banger!
I actually made a comment about Changbin’s rapping the other day. Someone had said “he doesn’t need air”. But I made the point he is so skilled he knows exactly when to breathe and how much air he needs to take in in order to complete his next pass. So take into account his speed, diction, vocal quality (which I happen to like very much, I know some may not) and breath control…in my opinion makes him one of the most talented rappers in kpop currently if not ever. Plus he sings really well. We don’t get to hear him sing enough. Also I love Jason and Henry’s breakdowns. They speak my language.
Jason explaining the rhythm saying ‘I have to define that in actual terms not BOOM GANG GANG GING GANG GANG’ really got me laughing so hard😂😂😂
petition to make 'bump' a legitimate musical word
It really saddens me that not everyone appreciate Stray Kids’ genius
YES GIVE ME MORE REASONS TO LOVE THIS SONG (and gain some braincells)
Music knowledge is the new jam.
yesss that changbin's rap is indeed insane
I love your edit at 4:14 . It made an already hard impact hit even harder. Very thoughtful editing!
I love the 3Racha appreciation yes producer line lets gaur
the sudden need to put the headphones fully on was so good lol
Changbin's rap always gets me.
SKZ is that self producing group whose songs appeal to both casual(us) and geniuses(you guys) music fans alike.
6:55 Changbin´s rap in this part is based on pansori wich is the traditional korean singing style. By the way, love your reactions and your videos
“It bumps!” and “THAT MAKES IT FIRE” just makes sense. I’m cackling
I think the comments about the different timbres of their voices are right on the money. Just as I can easily differentiate the rappers in BTS or Brockhampton, the different rappers in Stray Kids bring their own feel to their sections. Han has a comparatively light and smooth voice, Changbin has a rough and aggressive one, Felix has deep and commanding one, and Hyunjin has a sharper and punchier one.
Praising Han for his speed and clarity is my kink. He's so underrated and I dont understand why because he's so versatile and you can hear all his syllables lmao. It's so impressive how much he and changbin understand phrasing and how advantageous it is in korean
A reaction to the STRAY KINGS??? yoooooo Been looking forward to this reaction, since the reactors always point out cool musicality elements reflective of 3racha's artistry, and I know Chan has mentioned multiple times how he appreciates this channel's reactions :')
I just read about Umu’s tendonosis. Hope you’re feeling better now. Get well soon! 🙏 thank you for what you do!
I love how they talk about the actual music and instruments they use not just how cool the mv looks😍
항상 배경을 설명해주고 리액션을 해서 너무 좋은 것 같아요! 아무것도 모르고 보는거랑 다르게 조금이라도 사전지식이 있는 상태에서 보는거랑 감상평이 달라지니까 듣는 사람도 더 깊이있는 이야기들을 들을 수 있는 것 같네요
I like how you breakdown the song into musical terms and explain the details. it makes me appreciate the song even more.
I loved the reaction, it's always nice to see you break things down. Guys don't miss the ending blooper, it's good I promise. 17:09 Poor Kevin just took a sip
Dang, i'll probably missed it without this comment... 😂
That part got me 🤣
I hope Chan tells us on his next live on which parts of the instrumentals he contributed, as he is the co-arranger, I think the horn sound must be his doing :D your analysis on the drums was so interesting, I'll pay attention to that more now. Shout out to HotSauce and 3RACHA. Also thanks for this reaction, I saw that Domino is on your "can't decide" list, hope you react to that too haha
7:00 THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT EXPLANATION! I had no idea why that sounded so unique to me because the transition was seamless!
I am officially adding "bumps" and "bumping" to my music vocabulary. I might be a Jason fan now bc he speaks my lingo. And that Felix stan, the edited blush was great 😂
I wrote a comment under Red Lights saying that I loved how skz know how to play with silence, I’m so glad I’m not the only one who notices that detail in their music! Love this, thank you all for the reaction! And amazing editing as always Umu 💕
I love seeing yours skz's songs reactions, they are so talented, the whole album is amazing.
CMR is a group of Stays now! We love to see it. Also: Hi Chris, hope you enjoyed the video and them talking about how great the producer of the song is ;)
YESS THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!! I always love see their reactions to SKZ's songs
Thankyou so much for pointing out changbin’s unique rap part!! There were so many comments trashing him saying he was rapping off beat and that he isnt good in rapping. Dude! He is one of the best rappers in kpop 4th gen!
@@bilgekarabcak2980 who
5:58 im a fan of this duo as well. They’re explaination of why fast rappers are impressive. So much rap appreciation for the kids. 😭😭
i agree. I think a lot of people discredit fast rappers, saying that they don;t have skills or flow, but I think being able to rap that fast is part of being a talented rapper.
I've been waiting this even before the thunderous release lol
I really enjoy these type of “technical” reaction videos the most…where you have many listeners who break down the music in interesting ways. There are lot of KZheadrs reacting to Kpop these days but you guys are different. I appreciate your view point as Classical Musicians and how you see Kpop Music through that lens. I also enjoy how you carefully explain what you guys are talking about too as I’m not a musician and don’t speak your “language”. Please continue to do more of these “technical” reactions as I learn a lot from you guys each and everytime. Thanks again and keep up the great work!
I wanna see everyone's reaction to Domino SO BADLY. The whole album was absolute gold, and Domino just sold it for me.
Omg I love this so much, the song and the beat is so catchy and I love the raps and vocals. For me Felix (my bias) just slayed his part. The choreo is on point like always and I'm just in love with the entire thing words can't begin to describe how I'm feeling about this song. This song is such a hype and really gets me dancing and singing/rapping along. #StrayKidsWorldDomintion
The last guy said it best!!! IT BUMPS!!!!! I never thought I would hear classically trained ppl talk about this kind of music and actually like n me liking n understanding them talking about it. Thank u so much for this!!!! U learn something new every day 😊😊😊😊
The faces at 2:54 pls i'm in tears
HAHAHAHA
when raffi said the ending was like a grand finale, i felt that
I learn soooo much about Stray Kids style and music in general watching these reactions, you guys are awesome! And as a Stay I'm always amazed at how creative and innovative the boys are, but watching classical musicians say this with authority makes you realize how amazing SKZ is!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you soo much Umu for explaining the Korean title. And thank you guys for recognising the Korean traditional instruments in the song. I am a fan of Korean traditional music and instruments, I am actually learning Samulnori and my main instrument is the Kwenggwari, so I am sooo happy to have the instruments mentioned and highlighted.
React to the K always make me fall in love with the music I loved twice (and even more). Always..and forever grateful for this channel, producer, reactor, editor, everyone in this channel for your hardwork making all this happened 😆 Thank you so much!
Thanks @reacttotheK team and Umu. After watching the reaction vid, I'm hearing things clearly like the "car horns" which does not ring a bell when I listen Thunderous for many times.. And really appreciate SKZ ingenuity in terms of there music like when you explain how hard the "1,2,3.... 1,2,3.... 1,2,3,4,5...." ..
*@ **1:12* it's *Kevin* doing the *"Back Door"* choreography for me, like I'm *Kevin, Kevin* is me. I mean I don't understand anything you guys talk about but it's so interesting to hear the musical side to *SKZ* music and instrumentals. Big shout out to *Hot Sauce* and *3RACHA (Han, Bang Chan* and *Changbin)* 💯👏🏾
Whenever Stray Kids release music I always look forward to your reaction. You always make me feel proud to be a Stay!! Thank you.
I really hope 3racha get to see this video, they would feel so proud of themselves as it should be, this is an amazing song and music video
I especially love when fellow musicians react to our Straykids !!
Never been that fast xD
It's true that this song always makes me in awe like I heard it for first time
Stray Kids actually climb on my top 5 stan list because of their music. I am loving all their new releases. They finally found their music. And oh the rappers😎
Wow this song is so much more technical than i realized.
Sprechstimme, it's interesting. Because Koreans already have that kind of way to sing. It is called 휘모리(Hwimori). 휘모리is the fastest tempo in Korean traditional music. Here is a link, Pansori 흥보가. kzhead.info/sun/q7mycdR8f4Gai58/bejne.html
I always love learning more about 3racha's work, thank you so much for this!
I love everytime you guys react to SKZ's songs
Them: so they should know when to breath Changbin: 👁👄👁 I dont breath
I love chans high harmony in the back the most and second the kinda double on felixs voice at the "wassoyo" (sorry I don't rly know what he sang there"
16:06 ish part was my favorite. I was laughing so hard. The editing was amazing
When i hear this song, one thought always comes in my mind: all of the sounds in Thunderous are sounds that I've never heard from not only kpop but music in general for sure. And when i mean all of the sounds i mean EVERYTHING. LESSGO SKZ!!!
I’ve been patiently waiting for this reaction to come, and I’m not dissapointed with it. Also, it is nice to see the new reactors. Looking forward for their reaction on this channel, and their journey with kpop music ✨✨
WHOAA THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I have been wanting this content so much, so really thank you!! Reacttothek is the best!!
I love when you guys react to Stray Kids, It's so satifying cause Skz songs are so insane !!!
I love how you guys admiring the opening rap and explain why that is so cool and impressive. Your explanations still make sense for someone who don't really learn about music, and- ah i remember, how you showed explanation of the beat with instrument, that's made me realised something that i didn't notice before. Thankyou!
This is the best Thunderous reaction ever
this gave me so much serotonin and as usual you guys always point out things that even i as a musician didn't notice. so fun to watcha s always!
Ever since I found your channel, I have anticipated this reaction so much I was thinking I will be waiting for days but I'm not disappointed. I love how real musicians react to the songs. I have so much respect! Please mention next time who among the reactors are now certified stay. Thank you.
OMG I have been waiting for your reaction to this song, I haven't fully watched it yet but I can't wait for your breakdown of the song. As a musician who no longer studies music, I learn so much from you guys and I love it.
they appreciating Changbin's rap makes me so happy!!!!
thunderous is a masterpiece, and it really feels like a festival song. thanks for reacting! stays really enjoy your videos :)
I haven't realized how much I've learned from these reactions until i was trying to explain something I noticed in a song to my sister... Thank you these videos are so helpful and entertaining too
I love your reactions to STZ because it makes me appreciate how incredible 3RACHA and STZ are and I am always looking for people who appreciate their music on a deeper level like you. Thank you for your content. 👍
I've been waiting for this😭thank you so much💕
LMFAO WHAT HAPPENED AT THE ENDING BAD TIMING FOR THE SIP KEVIN 🤣
Omg I’ve been waiting for this reaction. Thank you so much!!!
Love these videos, they learn me more about Stray Kids's way to realize their music and it's AMAZING
Wow new reactors!! So cool to see you continuously growing in terms of diff content (producer and idol interviews!!) AND new faces 💜 Also Owen's point about missing a filler layer articulated sth i was feeling but didnt know how to express
SO EXCITED!!! I’ve been waiting for this one
I've been eagerly waiting for this!!! Thank you guys, I absolutely enjoyed and learnt a lot as a choir member! Lots of love from STAY 💖🙌🏼
