Read what happened. SM is doing absolutely the worst marketing, as usual. Sometimes, I wonder if they want to make $ or not. Reactors like you are cruicial when promoting artists but clearly, SM doesn't know that. Thank you for reacting to another EXO song.
Hi baekdo! Ty for watching n commenting. I been looking into SM after this whole situation, n jt seems they been in decline? I thought the reaction community was a big part of a lot of kpop labels toolkit for global reach n extending relevance. But maybe SM feels their artists don't need that kinda grassroots method anymore? I'm not sure. But ty for watching n commenting fam. We'll find a way. We got to
Though I understand why this might be your last EXO reaction video, as an EXO fan I truly hope that won’t be the case. I love watching your reaction videos. Your wit, sense of humor and technical expertise makes you unique among other reactors. Anyway, thanks for giving us another great reaction video. Wish you good luck and good health!
sacrebleu. Ms Porkiepine :[[[[ y u do dis I'm going to do everything i can before I throw in the towel on EXO. I'm just not tryna be extorted. Thank you for your encouragement, and your well wishes
thank you for the reaction💜 Kyungsoo the one who was sitting his stage name is d.o. I recommend you to watch his episode in Lee Mujin service He in it covering songs and talking about his life as singer and some random thing it's a great episode which you can discover him as a singer and his personality hope you check it out🙏🏻 For you to get to know the members better i recommend there individual guide Maybe you can check exo no mic no problem it's a great compilation of them singing without music and row vocal For Lee mujin service you can do a video image distortion to a voided copyright and for exo no mic no problem I'm sure that there isn't copyright on it I hope i helped you have a nice day 💜💜
Omg tysm. That is a lot of actionable help. I really appreciate this so much. And ty for suggesting that lee mujin video. It looks good from the looks of it. I hope u enjoy the rest of ur weekend :)
Thank you for your reaction. I sincerely hope that you don’t stop making reaction videos to EXO. They are a great group that deserve the continued exposure and support. I also appreciate hearing your honesty and expertise. Hope I can see more EXO on your channel. P.S. The one you really like who was sitting down is D.O. I agree, he has insane control and power. He’s my bias in the group. I’m in absolute love with his tone. However, it’s just preference though because every member is a skilled vocalist in their right.
Thank you for your kind words. I hope this all gets resolved peacefully n logically lmao. And word that's jr favorite too? Looks wise he didn't catch my eye. N he seems to have a humble personality. But as soon as he gets to work, I'm like always floored. He might be my bias too yo
u right. I know it's just a part of the game. I just thought these type reacts (like when industry professionals give insights etc) was protected under fair use. the problem could also be me just not understanding the laws correctly. Ima do everything I can to keep going until I can't! peace fam
what up fam! I am tryna experiment w different editing n all that. I'm gon pull out all the stops. I am really enjoying discovering kpop and sharing in that journey w the community. And SM seems to have a lot of artists that I'd be curious about. But i just don't wanna piss them off. a few ppl told me some reactors put blocked videos on patreon. I'm marinading on that idea. Idk much about patreon and have lowkey been avoiding it. that'll be a last resort i think. anyway. I hope you are enjoying your week! peace.
Just discovered your channel, and I super appreciate your reactions to EXO’s songs. You’re very knowledgeable in your craft, and I love how your comments are delivered in a positive light, and full of constructive observations. Your comments are not over the top, but are very grounded based on your professional experience, which is very refreshing to hear. I do hope you could continue to react to more EXO songs, because I’m sure that as a professional, their range as a group and as individual artists, will be something that would interest you. Again, thank you! And keep doing what you do. 💖
Nini! Thank you for finding me. I really appreciate your comment~ I used to think being an audio engineer ruined how i listen to music... I'm just mad calm n observant rather than reacting primally like I did before. But I am realizing after starting this yt channel that the way I hear music add value in how ppl enjoy the artists they love :/ .. :] Oh and I grew up being called "dark-skinned energy", i'm def not known to be flamboyant or loud hahaha. I'm glad u appreciate it
Thanks so much for reacting EXO! As you've heard so far, all EXO members are skilled vocalists. BAEKHYUN is the first member in this video. He is one of the three main vocalists of EXO. Although already a skilled and experienced vocalist, he still takes regular voice lessons to this day 'cause he says maintain his vocal stamina since he wants to continue singing for a very long time! He started his own entertainment agency, INB100, last year. The second member is SUHO, the leader and lead vocalist of EXO. The third is CHEN, another main vocalist. He is ranked among the best, if not the best vocalist in the whole K-Pop industry. Next is XIUMIN, the eldest among the members. He is the ace of the group. D.O. comes in next. He also has his own entertainment agency, SOOSOO Company. He is the third of the three main vocalists. He brough me to EXO. I got to know him first as an actor in his well-loved drama 100 DAYS MY PRINCE. He is my ult fave in the group although I love the other members just as much. Next is KAI. He is the face, main dancer and center of EXO. You already know CHANYEOL, one of the 2 main rappers of the group. He is an all-rounder, raps, sings, plays multiple musical instruments, produces and composes songs as well. SEHUN is the last member in the video. He is the other rapper of EXO as well as main dancer. He is the maknae or younger member of the group after KAI. I regret SM has given your channel a tough time, but I do hope that won't stop you from reacting to this mega-talented group. Maybe you could add some filter on the MV to get around SM's copywrite claims. Other reactor do that. Cheers and good luck!
Oh i LOVE how they all got something goin on besides just the artist thing. Thank you for sharing that. I screenshoted to help me dig more into them. I will experiment w different editing :D I hope you enjoy your week!
Thank you for reacting to EXO. I really wish it's not gonna be your last video reaction to EXO. they have so much for you to explore I wish you won't stop . I hope you'll always be blessed with good health. if ever you wanna check out other EXO contents, I'd like to recommend you EXO Killing voice and EXO b-sides medley in their 2024 fan meeting. Tq.
8:26 The second member who joined (Suho) was filming a drama and performing in a musical as the main cast while recording the album. There are behind-the-scenes shots of him sleeping between takes on the set of the music video 'Cream Soda' because he was extremely tired.
Suho! that's his name. My bad for being so bad w names yo. He's very very very refined. He seems like a really strong artist to me (in general). So I'm not surprised. I love that grind in him. When I first started tryna engineer in LA, they told me to accept that there will be times where I stay up 2-3 days straight to meet a deadline and to be prepared to sleep on the couch in between takes, etc. n they weren't got dam lying lmao
Hi Kai! Thank u for commenting :,( The fact u get any value at all out of my channel makes me feel so fuzzy. I was gonna drop watching SM after some of the back n forth I had w them via the yt system. But I at least wanted to try one more time (this video) n see what happens. Experiment w different editing, even shorter clips taken from their video, etc etc
Thank you for your EXO videos, I really enjoy them. You may consider reviewing the individual members new content as they are no longer contracted under SM. SM has such a bizarre take on marketing, and they hate EXO 😅. Anyways ♥♥ your reaction. Best of Luck.
hhaaha i love ur name. And that is a great idea! I will definitely do taht. I am new to this content ish and still learning hehe. After being showered w love n suggestions I'm thinking of putting any blocked or trimmed videos on a patreon n just keep it pushin. I hope you've been enoying your week! I've had my second sinus infection in two months hehe. Peace.
I'm sorry SM is picking on you. I love how you break down the recording sessions. I also love learning more through someone else's experiences (like why the guitar work blends in so well and the studio acoustic treatments). You make this so educational and fun. SM should be grateful for the free marketing. But they barely market their more established artists anyway. Cream Soda is the song that got me into kpop and not because of SM's marketing. It's so sophisticated and damn they can sing. If you'd like, you might try EXO content from other sites? Maybe try their Dingo's Killing Voice appearance. If you don't do any more EXO content, it would be nice to know you're still enjoying them on your own. They have so much good stuff. Main tracks like Monster, Tempo, Let Me In, Obsession and their pre-debut What Is Love. But so many of their B-sides like Groove, Jekyll, Sweet Lies, Forever and Thunder are as good or better than the main. And you may already know they all have successful solo work, too. Getting a Patreon might make your life easier. If you do, I'm in. Thank you for giving back to the world through your experiences!
Pamela! Are you enjoying your weekend? Cream Soda is really a masterfully crafted song. Even their choice of studio (the 'live' recording booth) really shined in the final mix with the very natural reverb on the vocals. It was top to bottom pristine. And I'm so glad you enjoy those parts! I try to keep it digestible, but I do worry I will bore ppl w some of the technical stuff that I find interesting lol. Like how one part of the song has a clean mix using 'spatial space' and the other part uses 'frequency space'. That really surprised me bc usually it is just ONE of those on a song. I gotta give props to their producer n engineer for that. I just feel they deserve credit too, and producer/engineer reactors I think show the hard work of the team beyond the artists. I will check out Killing Voice, it sounds pretty awesome. I do tend to enjoy B-sides a looooot. I'm learning that earning via yt is actually kind of lunch money (even for ppl that get 6 figure views) and most ppl who try to go full time yt use more than a few income streams to keep the lights on (like patreon). I'd honestly just be happy to be sustainable. so like just getting the money back that I'm spending on subscriptions to editing software, Canva, etc. I live in NYC so the only way to keep my lights on is robbing a bank every 2 weeks. You really warmed my heart with your support. Thank you for that. I needed that. I'm going to have to research how the patreon thing works. I feel shy about earning directly from viewers. I feel better about earning through advertisers. But I will meditate on it.. Do something fun for me today plz! Best, Eric
SM is the first enemy of EXO and its members. But I hope you don´t cease listening and knowing more about them, at least on your own. They are one of the few groups, if not the only one, that are worthy. I know that other groups have good singers and dancers, but EXO has 3 of the best singers in K-pop, 2 of the best dancers (Kai and Lay) in K-Pop/C-pop, and awesome actors (D.O. and Suho, although all of them can act) and 2 other members who are the perfect complement for the group. Individually they are strong, but when they are together they truly have superpowers, they become even more powerful. So we have the perfect combination of elements to make an EXTRAORDINARY ONE assemble. SM has forgotten all the value ($) they have achieved from EXO and is working against them and all the fandom (domestic and foreign) because SM does not promote them as they do with some artists from the same company. It´s not giving them a chance to do or work on what they really want or need, and that is why Baekhyun and D.O. created their own company (to promote their solo activities, and that is why Chen and Xiumin have already signed under BAekhyun´s company for their solo activities too. So, EXO and the members are not guilty of being in a dishonest and neglected company. Although SM is a big company known for being one of the first companies to make K-pop what it is today, as you can see, they have forgotten how to do global marketing.
that is such a shame. There are a lot of major labels in the USA that met their end by not remaining (or adjusting to become) more consumer and artist centric. I know that's a scary business model for major labels that put so much money into a project, but straying too far into "me first" mentality in such a people's business is literally long-term suicide. You'd have to be running a monopoly for it not to be a suicide. I'm gon do everything I can to keep it going until I can't tho, I promise
Respect! I appreciate u watching n commenting fam. And word. I do feel like I'm not as exciting n fun as most other react type ish. I just react how I react irl hehe. Sme has been mad OD.
Reading the thumbnail title "last exo reaction" caught me. Whyyy might be last?? They have so much content plz don't stop reacting to this amazing group. I love your reactions.
@@2baekdo ooh yeah i watched the full video now, bcz i was bzy earlier. It is sooo sad what SM is doing. But other producers are also doing reactions and telling some interesting facts about Mvs. Maybe he can try like them.
Got here because of EXO. Btw, great insights! I love your EXO reactions, very informative too! Hope you can watch EXO Killing Voice too. Love to hear your insights once again! 😊
Shame reallly because there woukd be no k-pop without SM Entertainment. SM started the fan culture as well. SM has always been known for 2 things , Vocals snd Visuals. The agency is still known as the hardest to get into. While newer groups aren't centered around vocals, SM still is. Once you start listening to SM groups, most become fans because of their superior vocals.
You can still react EXO tho😅 Like few members, You can react Lay, Khyungsoo ( the one who did the recording sitting down), Chen and Beakhyun ( not now but he will have a come back soon) these members are not under SM anymore, they have their own companies. For D.O. / Khyungsoo check out- Popcorn, Mars,Small girl ( he featured in it, it’s breaking the internet currently) , his covers like Rewrite the stars,Love wins all by IU, Supermarket Flowers, Perfect by Ed.Whenever D.O. cover something it becomes a trend in kpop. For Lay check out - Lit( visual masterpiece, the way he represent his own culture in it🤌) Veil, Flying Apsaras, Physic, Honey. ( he is more of Visual and dance king, but many of his music videos shows his creativity about his vision, choreography, and Music producing, he writes, produce his own songs) For Chen check out - Empty, His cover of legendary song "Tears"( 2024 version, he sang the song in original female key), Highway in the gale ft Hynn( another cover, I think it’s a rock song, it will show you his potential) These are free from the shitty company 😂 I just hope EXO free themselve from SM, and own their rights but I don’t see much light, ChenBeakXiu rebel and lost their right on their sub unit Albums and Beakhyun's first Japanese album.
Omg. You gave me a treasure trove of direction and lore and guidance. Thank you. I screenshotted this. I'll put it in my notes when I get bk home. Owning ur masters n rights is so important to the game. But I know Corea still does it old school where the label owns as much as possible. And it made sense to me at first bc the labels r doing a lot compared to the American labels. But there are these pitfalls to that system n horror stories that I'm seeing. I don't say this on the internet too much. But as much as I loved the time in my life when I was active in music, the music biz is the dirtiest business I ever knew. That includes modeling (being molested), black market pharmacy, etc.... the music biz is worse then all them. Peace
@@by9thplanet The history of EXO is really sad, EXO is one of the if not the most mistreated kpop groups out there. Like you can't do much when your own managing label sabotages you,instead of promoting you in a bigger stage, SM has a record of abandoning their own group after a few years( because they had their peak) but for EXO, they never became less profitable yet they abandon them, still EXO as group and soloist were unbeatable, so SM then actively sabotage them🤦♀️EXO is basically only group at this age who doesn’t have Contents that are available for international fans.SM artists say, EXO's one song( Growl) built SM's new building ( which is huge btw),and recently it was whole thing where CBX sued SM for not paying them, After bringing Millions, Members do not get paid, Still EXO members are among the top richest artists of kpop( because for 13 years they did everything from singing to acting like non stop) .I just fall in love with EXO, otherwise Kpop industry is too cruel for me to support.( Poor men can't even date or get married without backlash and death threats 🤦♀️)
Hi! New subscriber to the channel, I've really enjoyed the reactions you've put up recently. I listen to a lot of SM artists (they've got some of the best vocalists in kpop imo!) and it's a shame what the company is doing, very short-sighted. I do hope you will do more SM reactions in the future, a lot of reactors put them up as Patreon exclusives, perhaps that's something you could consider as well as your channel grows.
what up zoo! Thank you so much for finding me and ridin w me. Ima look into the patreon thing. I was lowkey avoiding that avenue. I was thinking why not just put stuff up for free if I can? whats the point in putting things behind a paywall if i don't have to. But I'm kinda seeing the point of it in cases like this. I hope you enjoy your week fam.
I’m not a hundred percent certain but I think what we’re hearing is just from the audio from the camera and not the actual recording. So it’s more like their raw voice. I wish sm would not be so greedy cause we’d love to see you react to exo more! They did a B Side Medley in their fanmeet and you can get a taste of how amazing their discography is. Their Killing Voice video is amazing too. For some reason I also think you’d be shocked with their Obsession mv.
Whatt?? That is insane then! If their revenue has been declining then j get why they'd want every penny they can get. But I just am not comfortable giving it to them off my narration bc I'm talking from career experience I had to earn. Like I'm tryna add insight n value. If i was just having fun n enjoying myself reacting then I'd jack what they're tryna do maybe. But im actually tryna be somewhat insightful. So I can't jack what they're doing yo. It's like extortion. And nobody ever extorted me in my life. And ty for the suggestions! I screenshot that hehe. I hope you r enjoying ur weekend!
Why is SM doing this to you?! Your reactions are amazing and will bring more eyes to this stellar group. What is WRONG with that company?! Don’t they know a good thing when they see it? A little respect here, SM. Please.
@@amyp613 They don’t know a good thing. SM has the golden goose! They didn’t market EXO to the western world when EXO was so hot. The guys could have done some intense language learning. They cheated EXO out of earnings. Now they are cheating CBX out of income on their EXO appearances. I imagine the others are staying with SM because of these scams. Or they’re waiting for Suho to become CEO!😆
F sme fr, shyt company! + I don't think this video should have an issue because their content doesn't cover your whole screen? Thanks for this reaction! Loved it 🔥 like learning new things and this was very informative; hope to see more EXO on your channel 🤞🏻🤞🏻
omg it has been such a headache dealing w them. They are blitzkrieging my broke ass bahaha. But a bunch of ppl told me that people use Patreon to put content that gets claimed or blocked. I think that would just take the headache and uncertainty away. I peeped EXO SC a couple nights ago. I might post soon! hehe
@@by9thplanet that company is whacked, even exol are fed-up! Yup, Pateron could be an option! But again, this time only a small part of their video takes up the screen so i don't think there will be an issue and you can play the mv audio while watching it as long as the size is small? Look into it; I think the amount of SM video covering the screen also matters + SM is crazy so yup there is no saying.. And hello 🤩 OMG I'm looking forward to the EXO SC content! Their work is amazing and so chill?! Most of it is written and produced by Chanyeol & Sehun!

NJM! ty for tapping in w me. I am going to do everything I can before I throw in the towel, I promise. ty for the requests and for how u formatted them. Hehe. I bet you got an A+ in school for formatting hehe. Onward!
18:48 Sehun is very open to Chanyeol's input, cause Chanyeol basically took over mentoring Sehun in rap, after a certain point~~~ SM extensively trains their artists *in what SM wants them to be trained TO A POINT* After SM feels they've gotten their artists to a certain point in a particular skill they don't push as hard for more training. EXO members have all taken it upon themselves to find lessons in the fields they want to grow in. Chanyeol, himself, has a rap instructor~~~ Sehun, the youngest member, was trained enough to not be an embarrassment to SM's name, but back when EXO formed SM didn't really put a whole lot of attention into crafting great rappers; they just wanted them decent. Sehun also had this particular type of braces that gave him a bit of a lisp + he was still going through puberty. So, Sehun wasn't given a lot of parts = not a lot of chance to learn/grow. Around the time SM *finally* started letting EXO members write lyrics & produce songs, Chanyeol started not only coaching Sehun through his raps but also crafted songs to help give Sehun more lines~~~ They even formed a subunit, EXO-SC, that lets them really show off their evolution and bond in music^.^
what up Torie. Thank you for educating me. I like that system of training~ I thought I was the only one who ended my sentences w a tilde~ Hooray~ word. I noticed Sehun was the weakest in that session, but he still got the take he needed to get and all his boys embraced him and uplifted him. It's common to try to get the money take when the artist is having an off day and having to book more studio time to try again bc it just wasn't good enough for their purposes. But Sehun got it done that day, and you really can't ask more than that. And his boys obvi had a lot to do w that. Ima look for EXO SC stuff. I love that kind of ish. Peace. do something fun today!
So sooooo thank u Love ur videos (And this voice so nice) Hope u r healthy rn and have a good time with EXO (and us) in future We appreciate ur efforts
so so you're welcome. muchisimos merci for finding me, watching, n commenting. I was lowkey worried my voice was gon be un-understandable on the mic bahaha. on playback it seemed kinda low and my words muddle into each other (i think it's a nyc thing). I'm trying super hard to annunciate when I record bahah. I am 90% healed from my accident. I just had a nasty fall. Concussion is pretty much straight now. Just rehab for my tendons etc. ty for ur well wishes. Yal give me life so it's natural. Ima do everything i can until i can't
So sorry for what happened to you. It's not you SM ent is punishing-it's EXO they are targeting. SM mistreats the group that made them the most $ and now some if not all of the EXO members are leaving SM-SM is making EXO's live so difficult. But we EXOLs will always follow EXO wherever they go.
I'm slowly learning what public/fan opinion on SM is. It's honestly a super curious situation. I heard there was even a power struggle in the leadership of SM. It's like a whole azz movie. But ty for reminding me that it's not personal against me or anything. I find that's true in life 99% when anything feels personal against you.
What up! I hope you r enjoying your weekend. It is definitely discouraging hahaha. But i wonder what SM would gain from that. They're really only hurting themselves. I have worked w some companies before tho that were so petty that if you didn't cater to them n their whims, they would punish you by shelving you or grounding you from activity or marketing for some time. I always thought that was the most stupid thing ever tho. Kf a company as big as SM js like that tho, that'd be crazyyyyy
@@by9thplanet SM gains nothing out of this. They are just preventing the group from gaining anything anymore. The reason is they see their groups as a products with a shelve life. Given EXO is a 12 year old group with half of the members terminating their contracts with the company, they want to make sure EXO does not gain any popularity anymore and be forgotten. They also want to push their new groups in the limelight and killing their previous groups helps with killing competition and comparison and makes their new groups shine better.
Thank you for reacting to EXO! Since you are more experienced with rapping, I would love to hear your thoughts on an NCT recording behind the scenes! NCT is EXO's labelmates. Their style is more rap based than EXO, but still with amazing vocals. Here are some suggestions. - NCT 127 Recording Behind The Scenes: "Bring The Noise", "Ay-yo" - NCT U Misfit Recording Behind The Scenes
@by9thplanet ahh yay!!!! If it isn't too late, I'd like to change my request to *Bring The Noise* Recording Behind The Scenes by NCT 127! I think this one has more input from both the artists and the producers!
I'm not gon front, if I got more flak from SME or whoever is reporting me, I was just gon be in my feelings about SM artists and not touch em hahaha. But Ima be mature for u. I'll peep those regardless. I'll record a react to it n all that prob. n just wait n see if it's safe to post. Peace
You are right about exo rappers. They are so versatile just like their vocalists. In every album they bring some new rap techniques. They never take away the vibe of the song rather add so much to it. You should checkout their songs let me in, artificial love, sweet lies, playboy,obsession, lightsaber, electric kiss etc. they donot do just the usual aggressive style of rap. They are very creative.
Ty for commenting fam! Oh that's exciting. I'm geeked w beats n raps. So you def caught my attention hehehe. I hope you're enjoying your weekend! peace
if they take me to court, Ima just plead no contest and do jail time bc I don't have attorney money bahaha. Ima be reacting from jail. could be my big break :p hope u r enjoying ur weekend
To minimize your copyright/strike try to avoid these following: 1. Lower the volume of the song, some videos perhaps may claim as copyright on it. You should check this out. 2. You should blurred the MV so it doesn't be reported.
My comments about other platform (name starts with “P” ) got deleted twice :( You can react here freely, and you can decide to do it for free or not. Please, continue to react to EXO 🙏🏻
Omg that's crazy that it got deleted. I didn't know yt could do that yo. U talmbout "beertube" or "cornhub"? I never considered that. I been experimenting w how I could do stuff that ppl enjoy but the copyright holders might give problems.
@@by9thplanet I was talking about “p-a-t-r-e-o-n” A lot of reactors post their reactions to Korean shows, kpop reactions that they can’t react on youtube and many other stuffs. And people are joining them for free or paying money to watch reactions.
Oh SM Ent 🐍. I hope you react to EXO - Killing Voice on Dingo❤. SM and EXO dont go well may be becoz of that. SM always mistreated EXO on every possible way, even 3 of the members have sued that Agency. do you have same copyright issues with other groups under SM .
Hey Ana! Ty for watching n commenting. I actually just read about that lawsuit ln. That's not a good look at all for sme. And I just got my yt started so I have only reacted to exo, xg, drake n kendrick beef. And it's only been exo I got problems w. And its always been a manual copyright claim bc jt happens days after posting. I got one claim for xg on a new mv. But that makes sense bc they Just released jt.
I love your review on EXO! SM sucks like that. Even EXO members are slowly leaving SM. There's currently a lawsuit case with a few EXO members and SM. SM does everyone dirty. Please check out EXO! I think you will like some of their music. Their music is more on the rnb kpop vibe. If you can not post EXO reactions, still check them out for your own enjoyment. Take care. 🙏🏽
U right. I shouldn't let SM ruin EXO for me. I promise to peep them no matter how the ish goes down. is that lawsuit active?? I can look it up. ty for chiming in fam. do something fun today! peace.
As I been learning the past few days, it seems sme doesn't have the best reputation. Dam. And that's an interesting idea! When it comes to sme I might do that! I appreciate ur help fr. I hope u enjoyed the weekend.
24:02 "then they're gonna see me in court" oh man that's not new 😀 SM has been (quite literally) everyone's enemy at this point tho.. I mean even some exo members had already sued them and met them in court so.. Anyway! I was a bit upset when I saw that "might be my last exo reaction" because I want to see more from you 😭 these days it's hard to find reaction creators who are; 1. Honest, and 2. At least understand what they are talking about and you're a professional who's way beyond that.. I know you're upset that sm is being an a*ss and I'm thankful that despite all that, you still manage to upload this video.. but if you could, please understand that this company is just ugly 👀 and never do their job properly (I don't even understand why'd they do that) so I reallyyyy hope you can find a way to avoid this issue and keep doing exo reactions 🙏🏼
sorry for starting off this video by making you upset :[ i was afraid of that when I was making the thumbnail. I heard that they had lawsuits! that's not a good look at all. thank you for appreciating what I bring to the table. It's def a product of a village of efforts, including ppl like you who I can share in passions with! so thank you as well
@@by9thplanetyou don't have to apologize, I believe it's a lot easier for you to just stop and avoid all problem but you care enough to explain and look for solution. Thank you, and I hope for the best for your page
@@pichaa.ann276 aww. I'm so glad we internet-met hehe. the comments have been telling me that some creators use patreon to put their blocked content. I'm considering using that as a safety net :/
@@by9thplanet yes! many creators also use other platform such as patreon.. and some people would still watch even if they have to pay (not me, I'm broke), so maybe you can use that too!
I think that might have been a factor for sure. I keep the video big and my avatar small since my avatar is low tech. But Ima try it the other way with the original video being small. I hope I don't either. ty for watching n commenting n i hope you have a fun weekend! peace
It's really strange, I saw many UA-camrs react to EXO official and non official contents and are all OK. I'm not sure if this copyright rules are more strict in certain countries 🤔 One of the way to avoid copyright issue perhaps you may semi block the video, example blur it with bubble effect or put some words to semi block the video.
@@ForlifeNAyes, me too... one of the channel which I followed, they create a patreon site which consists of both paid and free contents. Those videos they wanna to upload in UA-cam and got block, they upload in their patreon site for free viewing, and of course there are also paid content.
I noticed that too. So I got a claim on: 1. Hear Me Out MV: I got this claim as I was first uploading it, and I agreed to it bc I wasn't monetized anyway. 2. Hear Me Out Recording: I was monetized at that point and I wanted this video to be my first video for earning bc I had soooo much fun watching EXO record. I posted it and I got no copyright issues at all. But 2-3 days later, I did. So it was a manual claim. Either SME has a department that manually claims/strikes or it was a disgruntled viewer, is my best guess. And you have some great suggestions. I was tryna avoid that kind of editing, but i can honestly see how it can help you avoid headaches lmao. As long as the viewers don't mind, I don't mind experimenting with that editing as needed
word! I like to watch other pros n former pros react after I do mine n post mine to see where my thoughts were compared to theirs (for fun, not competitively. we are all a big family the way I see it). And they don't seem to have issues. The issue could honestly be me as well. Either something I'm doing wrong to get claimed. ORRRR getting claimed is a norm in this yt niche and getting videos claimed is a part of the business expense. I have to research into that
hey that's a great idea! What channel is that? I could really take notes from them :o I'm leaning towards the free content route (or charging half a penny). If I earn, I'd rather it be from advertisers who have budgeted for that. I know, I'm a terrible capitalist bahaha.
@8:13 i think he's tired because during this time he's juggling different schedules at the same time. he's shooting a drama & doing a musical & then recording sessions in between. @9:01 😂 he's born with those eyebrows! it really has a life of it's own! i hope this is not your last EXO video. i really enjoy watching your videos. SM just such a bully really. they're probably just nitpicking. if you're getting copyrighted then all kpop reactors should be too if that's the case.
worrrrd. someone just said that too. I can definitely sympathize with that. he's soldiering thru n getting it done. ty for putting me on game Nikki I need to steal some of his genetics. I always wanted eyebrows like that. Mine are barely there. Thank you for finding me n watching n commenting noona. I got a manual copyright claim. so small chance it was just a person who triggered this? but either way, SM was not listening to me on my request to release the parts of my narration. i deadass might be the problem too. I could be doing something wrong. I hope you are enjoying your weekend Nikki noonar. peace.

Don't take it personally, man. SM's slave contracts are over with EXO members. They tried to enforce it again but most members fought lengthy legal battles and were able to launch their own companies. SM is mad about the situation and is going to milk any and every thing that comes with the name EXO. These guys are exceptional, you don't have to react, enjoy EXO for yourself and share with your friends :)
beautifully written. and thank you for the grounding words. I've been able to do some deep dives w them via Patreon. I'm not always into popular music, but they have really been inspiring me. I'm already impressed by their skill level. Their personalities are very fun when put on display. but the production has gotten me into synthesizers (which i never thought I'd ever care about). hope you have a good week :]
Keep fighting, sm ent is a shitty company afterall, they are still trying to drag chen baekhyun and xiumin too. I've watch maybe over 1000 reaction content (including people like you who shares their knowledge on producing, singing etc etc) but a lot of them are fine 🙄 but again what to expect from a company which literally discard and sabotage their own old artists.
ty for commenting n showing love. I noticed that a lot of reactors do ait in this space. So that leads me to believe that I might be the problem in some way. I'm going to keep troubleshooting n reflecting. we'll figure this out
What is wrong with SM? They could have marketed EXO to the western world and made more and more $$$. But, no. They decided to go with Super M, which is made up of two EXOs anyway. Plus a member from Shinee, and others from Seventeen. But EXO kept bringing it. So now they’re leaving SM, who is trying to cheat CBX.
I hear a lot of disillusionment with the label. I can see in 10 years or so that more n more kpop artists r gonna make it as indie artists or on smaller labels. Bigger labels having too much power went obsolete where im at USA. and it looks like some labels (not all) in Corea are replicating those mistakes. Ima peep Super M out of curiosity lmao. peace fam

there is so much scandal surrounding SM i'm discovering.. that it makes me sooo curious to find out what happened. I thought they were one of the major labels that put kpop on the map :o
@@by9thplanet and EXO provided the income for SM’s brand new office building. Other members of other SM groups laughed that their group paid for the bathroom, while another said his group paid for the elevator!😆
@@judycasley108 bahahaha. i actually love that. i know it sounds like drama. But the artists are the organs of the operation while us (the fans) are the lifeblood. if a corporation forgets that, then I'd be all about taht drama too bahaha.
FULL ALBUM REVIEW: www.patreon.com/posts/album-review-exo-110998052
Read what happened. SM is doing absolutely the worst marketing, as usual. Sometimes, I wonder if they want to make $ or not. Reactors like you are cruicial when promoting artists but clearly, SM doesn't know that. Thank you for reacting to another EXO song.
Hi baekdo! Ty for watching n commenting. I been looking into SM after this whole situation, n jt seems they been in decline?
I thought the reaction community was a big part of a lot of kpop labels toolkit for global reach n extending relevance. But maybe SM feels their artists don't need that kinda grassroots method anymore? I'm not sure.
But ty for watching n commenting fam. We'll find a way. We got to
@@by9thplanet also SM is boicoting EXO
honestly, THEY KNOW. sm is pure sh*. hope exo get out of sm forever asap.
Oh noo😭 I really wish you continue checking on EXO
Though I understand why this might be your last EXO reaction video, as an EXO fan I truly hope that won’t be the case. I love watching your reaction videos. Your wit, sense of humor and technical expertise makes you unique among other reactors. Anyway, thanks for giving us another great reaction video. Wish you good luck and good health!
sacrebleu. Ms Porkiepine :[[[[
y u do dis
I'm going to do everything i can before I throw in the towel on EXO. I'm just not tryna be extorted. Thank you for your encouragement, and your well wishes
Do kyungsoo is the king of vocal runs and his voice is like honey. Chen is power and range. Baekhyun is like the perfect in between
@@blastmaker8151 Good summary. I’ve never been able to figure out each one’s exact vocal gift.
thank you for the reaction💜
Kyungsoo the one who was sitting his stage name is d.o.
I recommend you to watch his episode in Lee Mujin service
He in it covering songs and talking about his life as singer and some random thing it's a great episode which you can discover him as a singer and his personality hope you check it out🙏🏻
For you to get to know the members better i recommend there individual guide
Maybe you can check
exo no mic no problem
it's a great compilation of them singing without music and row vocal
For Lee mujin service you can do a video image distortion
to a voided copyright
and for exo no mic no problem
I'm sure that there isn't copyright on it
I hope i helped you have a nice day 💜💜
Omg tysm. That is a lot of actionable help. I really appreciate this so much.
And ty for suggesting that lee mujin video. It looks good from the looks of it.
I hope u enjoy the rest of ur weekend :)
Thank you for your reaction. I sincerely hope that you don’t stop making reaction videos to EXO. They are a great group that deserve the continued exposure and support. I also appreciate hearing your honesty and expertise. Hope I can see more EXO on your channel. P.S. The one you really like who was sitting down is D.O. I agree, he has insane control and power. He’s my bias in the group. I’m in absolute love with his tone. However, it’s just preference though because every member is a skilled vocalist in their right.
Thank you for your kind words. I hope this all gets resolved peacefully n logically lmao.
And word that's jr favorite too? Looks wise he didn't catch my eye. N he seems to have a humble personality. But as soon as he gets to work, I'm like always floored. He might be my bias too yo
EXO 👑 Kyungsoo (D.O.) ❤️🔥
yerrrrrr
ughhh i hate how strict SM can be about reactor vids, I LOVE THE EXO REACTIONS PLEASE DONT STOP!!!
u right. I know it's just a part of the game. I just thought these type reacts (like when industry professionals give insights etc) was protected under fair use. the problem could also be me just not understanding the laws correctly.
Ima do everything I can to keep going until I can't!
peace fam
Dang, I just found you 10 minutes ago and see this! Booo, SM! Hope you can do more EXO - appreciate your observations 🎉
what up fam! I am tryna experiment w different editing n all that. I'm gon pull out all the stops. I am really enjoying discovering kpop and sharing in that journey w the community. And SM seems to have a lot of artists that I'd be curious about. But i just don't wanna piss them off.
a few ppl told me some reactors put blocked videos on patreon. I'm marinading on that idea. Idk much about patreon and have lowkey been avoiding it. that'll be a last resort i think.
anyway. I hope you are enjoying your week!
peace.
Subscribed! Thank you for this, really. We, exo-L appreciate this. ❤
Thank you Jongsoo! I appreciate that so much :D
EXO is really special.
Just discovered your channel, and I super appreciate your reactions to EXO’s songs. You’re very knowledgeable in your craft, and I love how your comments are delivered in a positive light, and full of constructive observations. Your comments are not over the top, but are very grounded based on your professional experience, which is very refreshing to hear. I do hope you could continue to react to more EXO songs, because I’m sure that as a professional, their range as a group and as individual artists, will be something that would interest you.
Again, thank you! And keep doing what you do. 💖
Nini! Thank you for finding me. I really appreciate your comment~ I used to think being an audio engineer ruined how i listen to music... I'm just mad calm n observant rather than reacting primally like I did before. But I am realizing after starting this yt channel that the way I hear music add value in how ppl enjoy the artists they love :/ .. :]
Oh and I grew up being called "dark-skinned energy", i'm def not known to be flamboyant or loud hahaha. I'm glad u appreciate it
Thanks so much for reacting EXO! As you've heard so far, all EXO members are skilled vocalists.
BAEKHYUN is the first member in this video. He is one of the three main vocalists of EXO. Although already a skilled and experienced vocalist, he still takes regular voice lessons to this day 'cause he says maintain his vocal stamina since he wants to continue singing for a very long time! He started his own entertainment agency, INB100, last year.
The second member is SUHO, the leader and lead vocalist of EXO.
The third is CHEN, another main vocalist. He is ranked among the best, if not the best vocalist in the whole K-Pop industry.
Next is XIUMIN, the eldest among the members. He is the ace of the group.
D.O. comes in next. He also has his own entertainment agency, SOOSOO Company. He is the third of the three main vocalists. He brough me to EXO. I got to know him first as an actor in his well-loved drama 100 DAYS MY PRINCE. He is my ult fave in the group although I love the other members just as much.
Next is KAI. He is the face, main dancer and center of EXO.
You already know CHANYEOL, one of the 2 main rappers of the group. He is an all-rounder, raps, sings, plays multiple musical instruments, produces and composes songs as well.
SEHUN is the last member in the video. He is the other rapper of EXO as well as main dancer. He is the maknae or younger member of the group after KAI.
I regret SM has given your channel a tough time, but I do hope that won't stop you from reacting to this mega-talented group. Maybe you could add some filter on the MV to get around SM's copywrite claims. Other reactor do that. Cheers and good luck!
Oh i LOVE how they all got something goin on besides just the artist thing. Thank you for sharing that. I screenshoted to help me dig more into them.
I will experiment w different editing :D
I hope you enjoy your week!
Thank you for reacting to EXO. I really wish it's not gonna be your last video reaction to EXO. they have so much for you to explore I wish you won't stop . I hope you'll always be blessed with good health. if ever you wanna check out other EXO contents, I'd like to recommend you EXO Killing voice and EXO b-sides medley in their 2024 fan meeting. Tq.
thank you so much. health is important to me but i have also been neglecting it in a lot of ways. I hope you are blessed as well
Thank you for this.😊❤
EXO is my ult fav ever❤
thank you for tapping in. They are so amazing.
8:26 The second member who joined (Suho) was filming a drama and performing in a musical as the main cast while recording the album. There are behind-the-scenes shots of him sleeping between takes on the set of the music video 'Cream Soda' because he was extremely tired.
Suho! that's his name. My bad for being so bad w names yo. He's very very very refined. He seems like a really strong artist to me (in general). So I'm not surprised. I love that grind in him.
When I first started tryna engineer in LA, they told me to accept that there will be times where I stay up 2-3 days straight to meet a deadline and to be prepared to sleep on the couch in between takes, etc. n they weren't got dam lying lmao
@by9thplanet yo its OK :) , and i appreciate you taking the time checking out EXO!
EXO ❤❤❤
they're fire
Please don’t stop reacting to EXO. I love your vidss
Hi Kai! Thank u for commenting :,(
The fact u get any value at all out of my channel makes me feel so fuzzy.
I was gonna drop watching SM after some of the back n forth I had w them via the yt system. But I at least wanted to try one more time (this video) n see what happens. Experiment w different editing, even shorter clips taken from their video, etc etc
Thank you for your EXO videos, I really enjoy them. You may consider reviewing the individual members new content as they are no longer contracted under SM. SM has such a bizarre take on marketing, and they hate EXO 😅. Anyways ♥♥ your reaction. Best of Luck.
hhaaha i love ur name. And that is a great idea! I will definitely do taht. I am new to this content ish and still learning hehe. After being showered w love n suggestions I'm thinking of putting any blocked or trimmed videos on a patreon n just keep it pushin.
I hope you've been enoying your week! I've had my second sinus infection in two months hehe.
Peace.
Chanyeol is an amazing rapper and thank you for reacting to EXO
i can hear a lot of passion and hard work in his rapping voice. I can get down w him hehe.
ty for commenting
I'm sorry SM is picking on you. I love how you break down the recording sessions. I also love learning more through someone else's experiences (like why the guitar work blends in so well and the studio acoustic treatments). You make this so educational and fun. SM should be grateful for the free marketing. But they barely market their more established artists anyway. Cream Soda is the song that got me into kpop and not because of SM's marketing. It's so sophisticated and damn they can sing.
If you'd like, you might try EXO content from other sites? Maybe try their Dingo's Killing Voice appearance. If you don't do any more EXO content, it would be nice to know you're still enjoying them on your own. They have so much good stuff. Main tracks like Monster, Tempo, Let Me In, Obsession and their pre-debut What Is Love. But so many of their B-sides like Groove, Jekyll, Sweet Lies, Forever and Thunder are as good or better than the main. And you may already know they all have successful solo work, too.
Getting a Patreon might make your life easier. If you do, I'm in. Thank you for giving back to the world through your experiences!
Pamela! Are you enjoying your weekend?
Cream Soda is really a masterfully crafted song. Even their choice of studio (the 'live' recording booth) really shined in the final mix with the very natural reverb on the vocals. It was top to bottom pristine.
And I'm so glad you enjoy those parts! I try to keep it digestible, but I do worry I will bore ppl w some of the technical stuff that I find interesting lol. Like how one part of the song has a clean mix using 'spatial space' and the other part uses 'frequency space'. That really surprised me bc usually it is just ONE of those on a song. I gotta give props to their producer n engineer for that. I just feel they deserve credit too, and producer/engineer reactors I think show the hard work of the team beyond the artists.
I will check out Killing Voice, it sounds pretty awesome. I do tend to enjoy B-sides a looooot.
I'm learning that earning via yt is actually kind of lunch money (even for ppl that get 6 figure views) and most ppl who try to go full time yt use more than a few income streams to keep the lights on (like patreon). I'd honestly just be happy to be sustainable. so like just getting the money back that I'm spending on subscriptions to editing software, Canva, etc. I live in NYC so the only way to keep my lights on is robbing a bank every 2 weeks.
You really warmed my heart with your support. Thank you for that. I needed that. I'm going to have to research how the patreon thing works. I feel shy about earning directly from viewers. I feel better about earning through advertisers. But I will meditate on it..
Do something fun for me today plz!
Best,
Eric
@@pamelafaerye7941 How else do we watch/hear EXO performances, if not through reactors?
SM is the first enemy of EXO and its members. But I hope you don´t cease listening and knowing more about them, at least on your own. They are one of the few groups, if not the only one, that are worthy. I know that other groups have good singers and dancers, but EXO has 3 of the best singers in K-pop, 2 of the best dancers (Kai and Lay) in K-Pop/C-pop, and awesome actors (D.O. and Suho, although all of them can act) and 2 other members who are the perfect complement for the group. Individually they are strong, but when they are together they truly have superpowers, they become even more powerful. So we have the perfect combination of elements to make an EXTRAORDINARY ONE assemble. SM has forgotten all the value ($) they have achieved from EXO and is working against them and all the fandom (domestic and foreign) because SM does not promote them as they do with some artists from the same company. It´s not giving them a chance to do or work on what they really want or need, and that is why Baekhyun and D.O. created their own company (to promote their solo activities, and that is why Chen and Xiumin have already signed under BAekhyun´s company for their solo activities too. So, EXO and the members are not guilty of being in a dishonest and neglected company. Although SM is a big company known for being one of the first companies to make K-pop what it is today, as you can see, they have forgotten how to do global marketing.
that is such a shame. There are a lot of major labels in the USA that met their end by not remaining (or adjusting to become) more consumer and artist centric. I know that's a scary business model for major labels that put so much money into a project, but straying too far into "me first" mentality in such a people's business is literally long-term suicide. You'd have to be running a monopoly for it not to be a suicide.
I'm gon do everything I can to keep it going until I can't tho, I promise
12:25 It's D.O or Kyungsoo the guy who in Hear me out starts with 1,2,3...
Yassss. He's prob my favorite!
@@by9thplanetyessss listen to his song Tell Me What Is Love w/ his mentor Yoo Younjin, but watch the lyric video.

13:19 sitting vs standing comment had been L.O.L. but I agree 😆
You can't contain that mutant, come on lol
your reaction always feels professional and detailed I really loved that. but yeah fck sme
Respect! I appreciate u watching n commenting fam.
And word. I do feel like I'm not as exciting n fun as most other react type ish. I just react how I react irl hehe.
Sme has been mad OD.
As usual SM, it's always been SM-the ungrateful mfs who milked EXO so hard and tossed them like trash when EXO retaliated.
I feel so much history and lore behind this comment. It's making me look ish up.
Reading the thumbnail title "last exo reaction" caught me. Whyyy might be last?? They have so much content plz don't stop reacting to this amazing group. I love your reactions.
Read more- he explained why
SM being jerks as usual. They do not want EXO to do well because they lose control.
@@2baekdo ooh yeah i watched the full video now, bcz i was bzy earlier. It is sooo sad what SM is doing. But other producers are also doing reactions and telling some interesting facts about Mvs. Maybe he can try like them.
Ily
Idk how they even found me tbh lol. And idk how my videos make them feel violated either.
Got here because of EXO. Btw, great insights! I love your EXO reactions, very informative too! Hope you can watch EXO Killing Voice too. Love to hear your insights once again! 😊
Hi! Welcome :]
I hear great things about Killing Voice. I will make sure to remember those videos ;p
Shame reallly because there woukd be no k-pop without SM Entertainment. SM started the fan culture as well. SM has always been known for 2 things , Vocals snd Visuals. The agency is still known as the hardest to get into. While newer groups aren't centered around vocals, SM still is.
Once you start listening to SM groups, most become fans because of their superior vocals.
they seem like they were instrumental in helping make kpop get so big for sure.
Jongdae's eyebrows being questioned is the best meme of the day😅😂🤣
Even science is still tryna discover the geometric shape that his eyebrows are. It shouldn't be so perfect.
You can still react EXO tho😅 Like few members, You can react Lay, Khyungsoo ( the one who did the recording sitting down), Chen and Beakhyun ( not now but he will have a come back soon) these members are not under SM anymore, they have their own companies.
For D.O. / Khyungsoo check out- Popcorn, Mars,Small girl ( he featured in it, it’s breaking the internet currently) , his covers like Rewrite the stars,Love wins all by IU, Supermarket Flowers, Perfect by Ed.Whenever D.O. cover something it becomes a trend in kpop.
For Lay check out - Lit( visual masterpiece, the way he represent his own culture in it🤌)
Veil, Flying Apsaras, Physic, Honey. ( he is more of Visual and dance king, but many of his music videos shows his creativity about his vision, choreography, and Music producing, he writes, produce his own songs)
For Chen check out - Empty, His cover of legendary song "Tears"( 2024 version, he sang the song in original female key), Highway in the gale ft Hynn( another cover, I think it’s a rock song, it will show you his potential)
These are free from the shitty company 😂
I just hope EXO free themselve from SM, and own their rights but I don’t see much light, ChenBeakXiu rebel and lost their right on their sub unit Albums and Beakhyun's first Japanese album.
Omg. You gave me a treasure trove of direction and lore and guidance. Thank you. I screenshotted this. I'll put it in my notes when I get bk home.
Owning ur masters n rights is so important to the game. But I know Corea still does it old school where the label owns as much as possible. And it made sense to me at first bc the labels r doing a lot compared to the American labels. But there are these pitfalls to that system n horror stories that I'm seeing.
I don't say this on the internet too much. But as much as I loved the time in my life when I was active in music, the music biz is the dirtiest business I ever knew. That includes modeling (being molested), black market pharmacy, etc.... the music biz is worse then all them.
Peace
@@by9thplanet The history of EXO is really sad, EXO is one of the if not the most mistreated kpop groups out there. Like you can't do much when your own managing label sabotages you,instead of promoting you in a bigger stage, SM has a record of abandoning their own group after a few years( because they had their peak) but for EXO, they never became less profitable yet they abandon them, still EXO as group and soloist were unbeatable, so SM then actively sabotage them🤦♀️EXO is basically only group at this age who doesn’t have Contents that are available for international fans.SM artists say, EXO's one song( Growl) built SM's new building ( which is huge btw),and recently it was whole thing where CBX sued SM for not paying them, After bringing Millions, Members do not get paid, Still EXO members are among the top richest artists of kpop( because for 13 years they did everything from singing to acting like non stop) .I just fall in love with EXO, otherwise Kpop industry is too cruel for me to support.( Poor men can't even date or get married without backlash and death threats 🤦♀️)
Yesss more EXO pls
They have so much behind content on their channel
I want to :(
Hi! New subscriber to the channel, I've really enjoyed the reactions you've put up recently. I listen to a lot of SM artists (they've got some of the best vocalists in kpop imo!) and it's a shame what the company is doing, very short-sighted. I do hope you will do more SM reactions in the future, a lot of reactors put them up as Patreon exclusives, perhaps that's something you could consider as well as your channel grows.
what up zoo! Thank you so much for finding me and ridin w me. Ima look into the patreon thing. I was lowkey avoiding that avenue. I was thinking why not just put stuff up for free if I can? whats the point in putting things behind a paywall if i don't have to. But I'm kinda seeing the point of it in cases like this.
I hope you enjoy your week fam.
I’m not a hundred percent certain but I think what we’re hearing is just from the audio from the camera and not the actual recording. So it’s more like their raw voice. I wish sm would not be so greedy cause we’d love to see you react to exo more! They did a B Side Medley in their fanmeet and you can get a taste of how amazing their discography is. Their Killing Voice video is amazing too. For some reason I also think you’d be shocked with their Obsession mv.
Whatt?? That is insane then!
If their revenue has been declining then j get why they'd want every penny they can get. But I just am not comfortable giving it to them off my narration bc I'm talking from career experience I had to earn. Like I'm tryna add insight n value.
If i was just having fun n enjoying myself reacting then I'd jack what they're tryna do maybe. But im actually tryna be somewhat insightful. So I can't jack what they're doing yo. It's like extortion. And nobody ever extorted me in my life.
And ty for the suggestions! I screenshot that hehe.
I hope you r enjoying ur weekend!
Why is SM doing this to you?! Your reactions are amazing and will bring more eyes to this stellar group. What is WRONG with that company?! Don’t they know a good thing when they see it? A little respect here, SM. Please.
ty amy
@@amyp613 They don’t know a good thing. SM has the golden goose! They didn’t market EXO to the western world when EXO was so hot. The guys could have done some intense language learning.
They cheated EXO out of earnings. Now they are cheating CBX out of income on their EXO appearances.
I imagine the others are staying with SM because of these scams.
Or they’re waiting for Suho to become CEO!😆
dude, Chen's eyebrows are real lol
btw can you also react to EXO killing voice too
They r literally a perfect geometric shape hahaha.
I will as long as I don't get in trouble:(
Thank youuu! I’ve been waiting for this! 😍
And I've been waiting for this comment! Hehe
F sme fr, shyt company! + I don't think this video should have an issue because their content doesn't cover your whole screen?
Thanks for this reaction! Loved it 🔥 like learning new things and this was very informative; hope to see more EXO on your channel 🤞🏻🤞🏻
omg it has been such a headache dealing w them. They are blitzkrieging my broke ass bahaha. But a bunch of ppl told me that people use Patreon to put content that gets claimed or blocked. I think that would just take the headache and uncertainty away. I peeped EXO SC a couple nights ago. I might post soon! hehe
@@by9thplanet that company is whacked, even exol are fed-up! Yup, Pateron could be an option!
But again, this time only a small part of their video takes up the screen so i don't think there will be an issue and you can play the mv audio while watching it as long as the size is small? Look into it; I think the amount of SM video covering the screen also matters + SM is crazy so yup there is no saying..
And hello 🤩 OMG I'm looking forward to the EXO SC content! Their work is amazing and so chill?! Most of it is written and produced by Chanyeol & Sehun!
The 2nd guy (Suho) must be very tired that's why, hes' got a really tight schedule (drama, musicals, everything in between)
worrrd. I can totally see that. God bless him :[

Chen's eyebrows always been like that actually. He probably refine the shape, but the shape has been his thing from the start
they're beautiful :O
18:48 Sehun is very open to Chanyeol's input, cause Chanyeol basically took over mentoring Sehun in rap, after a certain point~~~
SM extensively trains their artists *in what SM wants them to be trained TO A POINT* After SM feels they've gotten their artists to a certain point in a particular skill they don't push as hard for more training. EXO members have all taken it upon themselves to find lessons in the fields they want to grow in. Chanyeol, himself, has a rap instructor~~~
Sehun, the youngest member, was trained enough to not be an embarrassment to SM's name, but back when EXO formed SM didn't really put a whole lot of attention into crafting great rappers; they just wanted them decent. Sehun also had this particular type of braces that gave him a bit of a lisp + he was still going through puberty. So, Sehun wasn't given a lot of parts = not a lot of chance to learn/grow.
Around the time SM *finally* started letting EXO members write lyrics & produce songs, Chanyeol started not only coaching Sehun through his raps but also crafted songs to help give Sehun more lines~~~
They even formed a subunit, EXO-SC, that lets them really show off their evolution and bond in music^.^
what up Torie. Thank you for educating me. I like that system of training~
I thought I was the only one who ended my sentences w a tilde~
Hooray~
word. I noticed Sehun was the weakest in that session, but he still got the take he needed to get and all his boys embraced him and uplifted him. It's common to try to get the money take when the artist is having an off day and having to book more studio time to try again bc it just wasn't good enough for their purposes. But Sehun got it done that day, and you really can't ask more than that. And his boys obvi had a lot to do w that. Ima look for EXO SC stuff. I love that kind of ish.
Peace. do something fun today!
So sooooo thank u
Love ur videos
(And this voice so nice)
Hope u r healthy rn
and have a good time with EXO (and us) in future
We appreciate ur efforts
so so you're welcome.
muchisimos merci for finding me, watching, n commenting.
I was lowkey worried my voice was gon be un-understandable on the mic bahaha. on playback it seemed kinda low and my words muddle into each other (i think it's a nyc thing). I'm trying super hard to annunciate when I record bahah.
I am 90% healed from my accident. I just had a nasty fall. Concussion is pretty much straight now. Just rehab for my tendons etc. ty for ur well wishes.
Yal give me life so it's natural. Ima do everything i can until i can't
first!!!! finally been waiting for your reaction. lemme watch it first lol
Bahahaha you're the best !
So sorry for what happened to you. It's not you SM ent is punishing-it's EXO they are targeting. SM mistreats the group that made them the most $ and now some if not all of the EXO members are leaving SM-SM is making EXO's live so difficult. But we EXOLs will always follow EXO wherever they go.
I'm slowly learning what public/fan opinion on SM is. It's honestly a super curious situation. I heard there was even a power struggle in the leadership of SM. It's like a whole azz movie.
But ty for reminding me that it's not personal against me or anything. I find that's true in life 99% when anything feels personal against you.
You should react to EXO killing voice🤩🤩
:D
❤ thanks for the video ❤
ty stara for watching n commenting.
SM doesn't want EXO to get any exposure hence they have very strict copyrights on their contents. So that people are discouraged from covering them.
What up! I hope you r enjoying your weekend. It is definitely discouraging hahaha. But i wonder what SM would gain from that. They're really only hurting themselves.
I have worked w some companies before tho that were so petty that if you didn't cater to them n their whims, they would punish you by shelving you or grounding you from activity or marketing for some time. I always thought that was the most stupid thing ever tho. Kf a company as big as SM js like that tho, that'd be crazyyyyy
@@by9thplanet SM gains nothing out of this. They are just preventing the group from gaining anything anymore. The reason is they see their groups as a products with a shelve life. Given EXO is a 12 year old group with half of the members terminating their contracts with the company, they want to make sure EXO does not gain any popularity anymore and be forgotten. They also want to push their new groups in the limelight and killing their previous groups helps with killing competition and comparison and makes their new groups shine better.
“Dance break”
ur the best
Thank you for reacting to EXO! Since you are more experienced with rapping, I would love to hear your thoughts on an NCT recording behind the scenes! NCT is EXO's labelmates. Their style is more rap based than EXO, but still with amazing vocals. Here are some suggestions.
- NCT 127 Recording Behind The Scenes: "Bring The Noise", "Ay-yo"
- NCT U Misfit Recording Behind The Scenes
omg yesssss
@by9thplanet ahh yay!!!! If it isn't too late, I'd like to change my request to *Bring The Noise* Recording Behind The Scenes by NCT 127! I think this one has more input from both the artists and the producers!
even if you can't put them on youtube i think you should check out exo's call me baby and tempo. they're both great songs!
I'm not gon front, if I got more flak from SME or whoever is reporting me, I was just gon be in my feelings about SM artists and not touch em hahaha. But Ima be mature for u. I'll peep those regardless. I'll record a react to it n all that prob. n just wait n see if it's safe to post.
Peace
I'm curious to listen to your opinion on these songs
*EXO "Obsession"* mv
*EXO "Tempo"* mv
*EXO "Monster"* mv
You are right about exo rappers. They are so versatile just like their vocalists. In every album they bring some new rap techniques. They never take away the vibe of the song rather add so much to it. You should checkout their songs let me in, artificial love, sweet lies, playboy,obsession, lightsaber, electric kiss etc. they donot do just the usual aggressive style of rap. They are very creative.
Ty for commenting fam! Oh that's exciting. I'm geeked w beats n raps. So you def caught my attention hehehe.
I hope you're enjoying your weekend!
peace
Thanks! Sorry for the copyright strikes. But your input on the process is really interesting, so I hope you can find a way to continue.
what it do Ras. thank you so much! If we ever cross paths, I owe you coffee fam. We're going to do everything we can until we can't
You can do againts SM, we love ur reacctions🥺
if they take me to court, Ima just plead no contest and do jail time bc I don't have attorney money bahaha. Ima be reacting from jail. could be my big break :p
hope u r enjoying ur weekend
@@by9thplanet hahaha i love ur attitude, thanks i hope you r enjoying ur weekend, too**
To minimize your copyright/strike try to avoid these following:
1. Lower the volume of the song, some videos perhaps may claim as copyright on it. You should check this out.
2. You should blurred the MV so it doesn't be reported.
Thank you for the tips! I am new to yt so it's a lot of growing pains for me hehe. I hope you are enjoying your week!
You should check out Aespa they are a girl group under the same company as EXO, you should check out the Recording for their new song Armageddon
I actually heard of that group! I'll peep it ^_^
My comments about other platform (name starts with “P” ) got deleted twice :(
You can react here freely, and you can decide to do it for free or not. Please, continue to react to EXO 🙏🏻
Omg that's crazy that it got deleted. I didn't know yt could do that yo. U talmbout "beertube" or "cornhub"?
I never considered that. I been experimenting w how I could do stuff that ppl enjoy but the copyright holders might give problems.
@@by9thplanet I was talking about “p-a-t-r-e-o-n”
A lot of reactors post their reactions to Korean shows, kpop reactions that they can’t react on youtube and many other stuffs.
And people are joining them for free or paying money to watch reactions.
Oh SM Ent 🐍. I hope you react to EXO - Killing Voice on Dingo❤. SM and EXO dont go well may be becoz of that. SM always mistreated EXO on every possible way, even 3 of the members have sued that Agency. do you have same copyright issues with other groups under SM .
Hey Ana! Ty for watching n commenting. I actually just read about that lawsuit ln. That's not a good look at all for sme.
And I just got my yt started so I have only reacted to exo, xg, drake n kendrick beef. And it's only been exo I got problems w. And its always been a manual copyright claim bc jt happens days after posting.
I got one claim for xg on a new mv. But that makes sense bc they Just released jt.
I love your review on EXO! SM sucks like that. Even EXO members are slowly leaving SM. There's currently a lawsuit case with a few EXO members and SM. SM does everyone dirty. Please check out EXO! I think you will like some of their music. Their music is more on the rnb kpop vibe. If you can not post EXO reactions, still check them out for your own enjoyment. Take care. 🙏🏽
U right. I shouldn't let SM ruin EXO for me. I promise to peep them no matter how the ish goes down. is that lawsuit active?? I can look it up. ty for chiming in fam.
do something fun today! peace.
Thanks for your reaction and your thoughts! Like it❤ Hope in future SM ands been such *ssh*ls
bahahaha. Me too
SM is such a snake as always. Maybe if you react exo contents but from fan edits? Love your exo reactions.
As I been learning the past few days, it seems sme doesn't have the best reputation. Dam.
And that's an interesting idea! When it comes to sme I might do that!
I appreciate ur help fr. I hope u enjoyed the weekend.
24:02 "then they're gonna see me in court" oh man that's not new 😀 SM has been (quite literally) everyone's enemy at this point tho.. I mean even some exo members had already sued them and met them in court so..
Anyway! I was a bit upset when I saw that "might be my last exo reaction" because I want to see more from you 😭 these days it's hard to find reaction creators who are;
1. Honest, and
2. At least understand what they are talking about
and you're a professional who's way beyond that.. I know you're upset that sm is being an a*ss and I'm thankful that despite all that, you still manage to upload this video.. but if you could, please understand that this company is just ugly 👀 and never do their job properly (I don't even understand why'd they do that) so I reallyyyy hope you can find a way to avoid this issue and keep doing exo reactions 🙏🏼
sorry for starting off this video by making you upset :[
i was afraid of that when I was making the thumbnail.
I heard that they had lawsuits! that's not a good look at all.
thank you for appreciating what I bring to the table. It's def a product of a village of efforts, including ppl like you who I can share in passions with! so thank you as well
@@by9thplanetyou don't have to apologize, I believe it's a lot easier for you to just stop and avoid all problem but you care enough to explain and look for solution.
Thank you, and I hope for the best for your page
@@pichaa.ann276 aww. I'm so glad we internet-met hehe.
the comments have been telling me that some creators use patreon to put their blocked content. I'm considering using that as a safety net :/
@@by9thplanet yes! many creators also use other platform such as patreon.. and some people would still watch even if they have to pay (not me, I'm broke), so maybe you can use that too!
I don't know why SM caused you copyright issues. Maybe the problem was that it was full screen. I hope you don't stop EXO reactions🙏
I think that might have been a factor for sure. I keep the video big and my avatar small since my avatar is low tech. But Ima try it the other way with the original video being small.
I hope I don't either.
ty for watching n commenting n i hope you have a fun weekend!
peace
Plenty of EXO content not on SM
thats a factoid. u right. ty
1:24 I’m just crying 😂
i'm not gon lie, I love that clip lol. (if ur talking about 13:24)
did u watch Jackass when u were coming up?
@@by9thplanet gosh yes
I mean 13:24🙈
Nooo
What is it?
I’ll go google it 🏃🏼♀️➡️
It's really strange, I saw many UA-camrs react to EXO official and non official contents and are all OK. I'm not sure if this copyright rules are more strict in certain countries 🤔 One of the way to avoid copyright issue perhaps you may semi block the video, example blur it with bubble effect or put some words to semi block the video.
Yes same..i wonder why is it so? I have been following some musicians ,producers reacting to Sm groups. And they are all OK.
@@ForlifeNAyes, me too... one of the channel which I followed, they create a patreon site which consists of both paid and free contents. Those videos they wanna to upload in UA-cam and got block, they upload in their patreon site for free viewing, and of course there are also paid content.
I noticed that too. So I got a claim on:
1. Hear Me Out MV: I got this claim as I was first uploading it, and I agreed to it bc I wasn't monetized anyway.
2. Hear Me Out Recording: I was monetized at that point and I wanted this video to be my first video for earning bc I had soooo much fun watching EXO record. I posted it and I got no copyright issues at all. But 2-3 days later, I did. So it was a manual claim. Either SME has a department that manually claims/strikes or it was a disgruntled viewer, is my best guess.
And you have some great suggestions. I was tryna avoid that kind of editing, but i can honestly see how it can help you avoid headaches lmao. As long as the viewers don't mind, I don't mind experimenting with that editing as needed
word! I like to watch other pros n former pros react after I do mine n post mine to see where my thoughts were compared to theirs (for fun, not competitively. we are all a big family the way I see it). And they don't seem to have issues.
The issue could honestly be me as well. Either something I'm doing wrong to get claimed. ORRRR getting claimed is a norm in this yt niche and getting videos claimed is a part of the business expense. I have to research into that
hey that's a great idea! What channel is that? I could really take notes from them :o
I'm leaning towards the free content route (or charging half a penny). If I earn, I'd rather it be from advertisers who have budgeted for that. I know, I'm a terrible capitalist bahaha.
Just find your chanel and I am so interested, I subs...
Hey, Sally :]
Thank you for finding my channel. we're gonna have some fun
Maybe u can reaction with fan channel youtube dont reaction in sm youtube
Hi ariana! Ty for tryna help a brova out. Can u explain that to me a little? Or maybe provide me an article or link to where i can look into it ?
@8:13 i think he's tired because during this time he's juggling different schedules at the same time. he's shooting a drama & doing a musical & then recording sessions in between.
@9:01 😂 he's born with those eyebrows! it really has a life of it's own!
i hope this is not your last EXO video. i really enjoy watching your videos. SM just such a bully really. they're probably just nitpicking. if you're getting copyrighted then all kpop reactors should be too if that's the case.
worrrrd. someone just said that too. I can definitely sympathize with that. he's soldiering thru n getting it done. ty for putting me on game Nikki
I need to steal some of his genetics. I always wanted eyebrows like that. Mine are barely there.
Thank you for finding me n watching n commenting noona. I got a manual copyright claim. so small chance it was just a person who triggered this? but either way, SM was not listening to me on my request to release the parts of my narration. i deadass might be the problem too. I could be doing something wrong.
I hope you are enjoying your weekend Nikki noonar. peace.
Don't take it personally, man. SM's slave contracts are over with EXO members. They tried to enforce it again but most members fought lengthy legal battles and were able to launch their own companies. SM is mad about the situation and is going to milk any and every thing that comes with the name EXO. These guys are exceptional, you don't have to react, enjoy EXO for yourself and share with your friends :)
beautifully written. and thank you for the grounding words. I've been able to do some deep dives w them via Patreon. I'm not always into popular music, but they have really been inspiring me. I'm already impressed by their skill level. Their personalities are very fun when put on display. but the production has gotten me into synthesizers (which i never thought I'd ever care about).
hope you have a good week :]
Keep fighting, sm ent is a shitty company afterall, they are still trying to drag chen baekhyun and xiumin too. I've watch maybe over 1000 reaction content (including people like you who shares their knowledge on producing, singing etc etc) but a lot of them are fine 🙄 but again what to expect from a company which literally discard and sabotage their own old artists.
ty for commenting n showing love. I noticed that a lot of reactors do ait in this space. So that leads me to believe that I might be the problem in some way. I'm going to keep troubleshooting n reflecting. we'll figure this out
You should check out the NCT U - Misfit recording behind and Red Velvet - Feel My Rhythm recording

Wrote it down
What is wrong with SM? They could have marketed EXO to the western world and made more and more $$$. But, no. They decided to go with Super M, which is made up of two EXOs anyway. Plus a member from Shinee, and others from Seventeen. But EXO kept bringing it. So now they’re leaving
SM, who is trying to cheat CBX.
I hear a lot of disillusionment with the label. I can see in 10 years or so that more n more kpop artists r gonna make it as indie artists or on smaller labels. Bigger labels having too much power went obsolete where im at USA. and it looks like some labels (not all) in Corea are replicating those mistakes.
Ima peep Super M out of curiosity lmao.
peace fam
There are no Seventeen members in SuperM. They're not in SM Entertainment. SuperM consists of members from SM artists: EXO, Shinee, Wavy and NCT.
@@TheHockeywitch Boy, I was on a late night roll, getting names totally messed up.

there is so much scandal surrounding SM i'm discovering.. that it makes me sooo curious to find out what happened. I thought they were one of the major labels that put kpop on the map :o
@@by9thplanet and EXO provided the income for SM’s brand new office building. Other members of other SM groups laughed that their group paid for the bathroom, while another said his group paid for the elevator!😆
@@judycasley108 bahahaha. i actually love that. i know it sounds like drama. But the artists are the organs of the operation while us (the fans) are the lifeblood. if a corporation forgets that, then I'd be all about taht drama too bahaha.
