Facts about Kiss of Life : Natty (Thai) was a JYP trainee for a very long time, she even participated in Sixteen (the show to form twice), she's the main dancer of the group. Belle (Korean-American) was a songwriter for SM, she's a really great vocalist and she also produced songs like Unforgiven for LeSserafim, she's the Main vocal of the group. Julie (Korean-American) was a Blacklabel (YG label) trainee for 3 years and is a really good rapper, she's the Leader and Main rapper of the group. Haneul (Korean) is the member with the least training time but she's already so talented, she composed Bye My Neverland, she's the Lead vocalist and Maknae of the group.
also Haneul was a Hybe trainee
@@leimine she wasn’t actually, it was a rumor that she denied on multiple occasions
@@maelt4347 oh srry, I thought it was confirmed
@@leimine you don’t have to be sorry, I thought so too at first !
@@leimine its already confirmed by Haneul herself, she never go to Hybe and trained there
It’s still crazy how shh brings together all of the separate sounds in their separate songs and makes one sound for such a bop of a debut title track
That’s so cool
Natty failing her first audition symbolizes her journey on Sixteen, the reality show that formed Twice, she was a fan favorite in the competition but did not debuted in the group.
Now she found Kiss of Life and made her debut.
and Idol School :(
@@marc8353and her solo career
Right, there’s a theory explaining she fell twice (one during the audition, the other hit by a car), symbolizing her 2 failed audition
@@kangyeol2015 and maybe her getting up after getting hit and falling down again for the third time symbolizes her solo debut not being that successful?
@whatsafterlike8319 Oh wow. now i feel like crying after reading this 🥲. natty is toughh
Trivia here: Belle is the one who did the run (woman's voice) from Mark's Child.
WHAAAT
SHE ATE
Nooooo wayyyy 😭😍it’s too good
YAS
yess!! this is how i knew about kiss of life and have been following them ever since they're all so good
SUGARCOAT IS LITERALLY SO GOOD IM CRYING 😭
Julie said in an interview that the lore of their debut kinda matched a lot the way they actually came together as a group. Each one of them ex-trainees from big companies that they didn't make it to the debut, with different backgrounds and stuff and coming together in the right moment to debut as Kiss Of Life and being very well matches to one another in their differences. I love that.
those were WHISTLE NOTES!!!! belle killed that!
Natty, the main dancer, has had a very rough go as a trainee for a while, she went on sixteen (the show that formed twice) and made it to the finale at only 13, then went on idol school a few years later, the show that formed fromis 9, was rigged out of the final lineup, then made a solo debut, disappeared for 3 years, and now she's here! I've been following her for a long time and it's really cool to finally see her in a group. She's a crazy performer, I mean she beat momo on sixteen twice when she was 13. That's a feat in itself.
In Knowing Bro ... She said she came to Korea when she was 12 years old, and now she's 22. Doesn't give up, 10 years to be Idol She and members is the real.
Belle, the main vocalist, from Seattle, won the "Proud Korean Grand Prize" at the 2023 Korea Best Brand Awards just 10 days after debut. She says she's got 1,000s of songs unreleased, things she has worked on with many different producers.
Natty, the main dancer, from Thailand, had actually debuted before, releasing 2 singles as a soloist.
Great new group.
41:38 that's whistle note that belle did u should definitely check out their live stages they all were singing live and belle was hitting those whistle notes while performing u can hear them clearly on live stages
imagine having all of the members do solo songs in your first debut album and then an amazing story line for all the videos also their acting is great and the songs are all bops.
This girl group is truly amazing and one-of-a-kind! Their debut music video revealed some VERY👀important information about their upcoming comeback. The title of their comeback is "BORN TO BE XX" and their fandom name is "KISSY". If you watch this video at 36:25 (or 1:19 in the actual music video), you can spot the title of their comeback on the bathroom door. The tracklist is also displayed on paper on the walls at the same time stamp for this video (or 1:23 in the actual music video) the paper includes five songs: "Kissy", "XX", "Messy", "Born To Be XX", and "Red Bird". I'm really impressed with how well they planned everything! 💋💕BORN TO BE XX NOVEMBER!
Omg!?! I never noticed. I love when there’s a clear vision
ช่างสังเกตมาก👏👏👏
Yeah baby!😁
THEY ARE TALENTED AFF
I just discovered this group last week and I'm ALL IN for them. XG and KIOF are the type of GGs that I'm waiting for sooooo long. I'm glad Natty didn't quit. I hope their agency won't mess them up.
right most of XG fans are also KIOF fans ... I'm speaking about music TASTE.
!!!
@@sakurawilliams6380It's the other way round for me! 🤗 KIOF is currently my ult group but XG has quickly become my second fave especially after hearing puppetshow! I'm just starting into them but I already love them. Both groups are amazing and have super creative concepts! ❤❤
@@onzons7604 Spot on. I love these two groups 🥰
@@onzons7604 - RnB!!! I love it!
By far the best 5th gen girl group to debut and it's not even close imo. Their concept is mature and the age range is perfect for me. Belle is probably my bias because I usually gravitate towards the vocalist in groups, like do you hear those vocals?!?! Natty and Julie are in a tie for being my bias wrecker. Haneul is cute and I see so much potential in her.
THIS GROUP IS SO GOOD FR. When I first listened to their solos and to Shhh I fell for them, PERFECT GIRLS
I almost missed this group too. But then I found out about the members of the group and realized that I can't miss the debut of such a group. I remember Natty from Sixteen (the show where Twice was made), and she was good there, but too young. And Belle participated in writing songs for Miyeon (g-Idle), LeSserafim and Purple kiss. My weakness is when composers/lyricists/songwriters become artists themselves.
Belle can do a whistle note. They are even better live
Haneul’s solo sampled “take me out to the ball game” and in the bridge it’s supposed to sound like she’s saying “hey batter batter” like they do in baseball 😊
Also I was low key waiting for you to react to that jumpscare of Natty getting hit by the car 😂
I see KISS OF LIFE and I clicked immediately. definitely one of the best debut concepts 💯
I’m so glad you reacted to them and in order as well! I’ve never seen such a good storyline for a debut and also as 25 year old it’s more relatable for me to see more mature concepts such as drinking, family struggles, money struggles, etc. I love new jeans but this was a breath of fresh air.
OH MY GODDDD I immediately clicked upon seeing the notification!!! I thought it will never happen but idc if it's super late for others, you're right, nothing is late enough to get into Kiss of Life. I'm so glad you listened to them, I FELL HARD for their storyline and sound immediately!! So excited for this 😭💗
the way the haneul mv had me on the fence until the very end cause i also thought they'd reveal the classmates were making fun of her instead of actually vibing and hyping her up 💀 we traumatized ig LMAO
Yayy thank you for reacting I'm so obsessed with them they're already one of my fave groups
❤❤❤
I love them honestly and I’m ngl I feel so bad bc every time I watch ppl react to natty getting hit by the car for the first time I die laughing bc it’s outta nowhere
Their first comeback will be sometime next month!
That was whistling that you heard in the end of Shhh belle the one in pink she did on the runs and whistle notes in the end
I NEVER CLICKED A VIDEO SO FAST WHEN I SAW THE THUMBNAIL OMGG so glad you reacted to them theyre so insane for a rookie group! 🥺
Kiss of Life have become my favorite group rn to follow up on after third gen bc they have so much talent it’s incredible
Wowwww I’ve never clicked on a video that pops up on my youtube feed this fast. 🤣 Thank you for checking them out Caitlin! Personally, KOL is a new generation girl group that I’m looking forward to their next move the most. The label really put so much effort on the production from the start, so I’m really glad for the girls for their debut, especially Natty. Because I am also Thai, and I’ve been cheering on her since a show called Idol School. I’m happy for her successfully debut as a girl group this time, after been on Sixteen, Idol School, solo debut until now, she never gives up on her dream. Thank you for your reaction as always Caitlin! ❤
I assume you mean Natty 💀 😂
@@lunarialoonatic Ah I forgot to check the spelling. Thanks.
Girl I’m not big fan of girl groups but these group and xg are new talent that we need
Sugarcoat been ON REPEAT
SAMEEE IT'S SO GOOD
PERRRRIODT
still can't get over the transition from the MV to the performance video, the team that thought about that is a GENIUS
Here's some details about the group and members just in case you wanted to know:
Julie:
-Main Rapper & Leader
-Former YG trainee
-She's American, specifically from Hawaii
-She was born in 2000, which makes her the oldest member
Natty:
-Main Dancer, Rapper, Vocalist, possible center/fotg
-Former JYP trainee
-She's Thai
-Born in 2002
-She was on Sixteen, the survival show that created Twice, and she was very close to debuting in the group
Belle:
-Main Vocalist & Visual
-Former SM Trainee
-Also American, but I can't remember what city or state
-Born In 2004
-She wrote Unforgiven by Lesserafim, her solo, Shhh, and a few other songs
-She did the background vocals for Mark's Child and also a few more songs
-She did the high notes and whistle notes in Shhh
Haneul:
-Vocalist, Rapper, Maknae
-Was rumored to be a former HYBE trainee, but she denied this (so if you see people say this, they're incorrect)
-Born in 2005 (she turned 18 in May?)
-The least in known about her
They are indeed 5th gen, and they're having a comeback in November
No, she's not from HYBE
Haneul confrim on fancall that she is not HYBE trainee, belle too she's just work with SM not trainee ^^
we ain't on 5th gen yet bud lol, were only halfway of 4th gen
@@macs0544 how long do you think the the gens are? 5th gen began in January. Also 4th gen began in late 2017, meaning that it went on for around 5 years, and the only gen that was ever more than 7 years was 2nd gen.
@@macs0544 5th gen started a few months ago with RIIZE, boysnextdoor, Zb1 all of them and after are 5th gen buddy 🤣
I CLICKED SO FAST LMAO
SAME
LITERALLY SAME NRRHVEYRFBTFU😭
i love kiss of life so much thank you for reacting to them!
all of the members are above the age of 18 which is definitely refreshing with how much younger idols seem to be getting. i’ve seen other comments talk about the members, but i want to highlight that the group’s creative director is lee haein, a former contestant on survival shows produce 101 and idol school (natty was also on idol school so they were already friends, but now she’s friends with the whole group)! I’d say she’s the secret ingredient behind the amazing debut of kiss of life, and i trust her with whatever direction the group goes.
haein talks about how they wanted to allow the members the freedom to have the debut they want to have, so their solo songs are definitely a reflection of their own music styles and the concept is something they all wanted!
if you were to react to any of their other content, i would highly recommend the two part mini documentary on the behind the scenes of them filming these mv’s in hungary! you can really feel the appreciation between the girls and the staff and it’s just really sweet.
fun fact, belle wrote and produced countdown when she was in high school and it was originally written in english!! she was already a songwriter at sm, but the other members also had a hand in the production and writing of bye my neverland and shhh and they talk a little bit about doing a song camp together in the documentary.
i’m happy to see people loving them so much, look forward to their next comeback in november!
This group is so young but so promising already, i loved all the solos so much, and the title track has been on repeat since it came out, it's so good. They're so gooddddddddddddddddddddddd
their rollout reminds me of loona in a way!! obviously loona’s was a bit more in depth and lore heavy, but its fun to have that feeling again :)
The live band version of Shhh is actually really good! I hope you react to it.
Im unbelievably excited for their upcoming comeback and just their future in general. This whole debut project completely blew me out of the park.
Natty and bell's solos are my favorite they killed it🎀❤️
Belle's whistle tones are angelical
OMGGGG 😭 THANK YOU FOR REACTION TO KISS OF LIFE 💋💅
Omg yes Caitlin kiss of life 😭 thank you
Caitlin omggg thank you sooooo much for reacting to the girls
Shh is very Ariana coded, especially the "Baby I" era, but like with a twist😭❤️. I love that for them and it's refreshing for kpop and in general cuz I miss that sound in pop as a whole. (Also, not saying they're copying I meant it as a complement and because she said she couldn't think of what it reminded her of)
honestly my new favorite rookie gg. Sugarcoat is my most listened to song this year
I know Natty since sixteen and I also supported her in idol school and when she debuted solo and I'm so proud of her and so happy that she's in this group now because I love all of the girls and their music is so good and the storyline of the MVs??? I love kiss of life 😭😭❤️❤️❤️
21:29
you were thinking of "take me out to the ball game" the song definitely has its melody 😂
35:40
drop it like it's hot snoop dog, you probably remembered when editing but if not 😂
Take all the time you need to do reactions ❤ I’m just glad you’re checking them out at all bc I KNEW you would love them
I've been waiting for this REACTION!
Omg i didnt expect this but thank you so much ❤
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!💗
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS OMG!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you Cait! i really like this debut!
Oh my gosh thank you for this reaction ❤❤
i was literally just about to check if you'd reacted to them just now, this timing is impeccable
Natty was a sixteen participant (Reality show that formed Twice) and she almost debuted
So HAPPY!!! Thank you for this video
A few behind the scenes:
The end of Natty's Sugarcoat MV is Juie's Kitty Cat. Julie is also in the car with her friends when Natty is dancing in the middle of the mini plaza. She also participated in thr choreography for Sugarcoat.
Belle's acting in her Countdown MV was all improv. There was only one line she was given. I think it was "Why are you doing this to me?!" She's also watching Sky (Haneul)'s viral video. Belle wrote Countdown when she was in highschool.
Julie really did sprain her ankle while filming her Kitty Cat MV.
The scene where Natty jumps onto stage during the audition and falls (in Bye My Neverland MV and Shhh MV) was filmed several times over because she fell too elegantly. The staff was commenting how she made it like a dance move rather than an actual fall. Also, kudos to the stuntwoman who got hit by the car instead of Natty. She was wearing a vest, but she ended up taking it off for the shot because it looked way too bulky and different from Natty's figure.
In the Shhh MV, the scene of them dancing together on the audition stage is partially in Natty's POV because she also sprained her ankle while filming that very scene. Also, "Born to be XX" written in the bathroom is their next album. Both Natty and Julie participated in Shhh's choreography, and their choreography group is led by Ali (a few ppl might know him but he was in charge of training JYP trainees once upon a time, idk if he trains them as well rn).
KIOF (abbreviation for Kiss of Life) goes over the making of the Music Video and more behind the scene cookies in their Documentary (on the official channel). There's also more on their creative director (Hae-in from Produce 101 Season 1) channel (하이해인).
And like Sky with black hair more than blonde. Thank you for all the love for KIOF!
I really love your reactions. Thanks for doing this one 😊One of my favorites
Yes!!! I was waiting for this!! When I tell you I’m in love w/ them!
WAS WAITING FOR THIS CAITLYN THANK YOUUUU 😭😭🤍
love your reactions!
OMG CAITLIN, YOU JUST MADE MY DAY
Been a kiof fan since day1, and now that i rewatched the mvs I noticed the "born to be xx" poster in Shhh! MV. Now I cant wait for their comeback knowing they prepared it before their debut.
BEEN WAITING FOR THIS THANKS CAITLIN ❤️
You don't know how much I was expecting this!!
omg I did not expect this!!!
HI CAITLIN!! TYSM FOR REACTING TO THEM! I enjoyed watching them for the first time with you! Theyre so good 😭 Btw, hope you're doing great always 💗
Thanks for the reaction ❤
Their solo and Their debut song are connected😭🤌
OMG IT HAS BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I WANTED YOU TO REACT TO THEM AHSHSHHSHHH, thank you so much ! :))
OH MY GOD I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR KIOF MARATHON I'M SOO HAPPY
I NEVER NOTICED THE BORN TO BE XX LOGO IN THE BACK OMG 36:49 THEY HAVE BEEN COOKING SINCE THE BEGINNING
ive WAITED for this reaction
i WISH you'd react to their live stages, they sing live and still ATE the dancing, and i know you'll like them more 😩😩😩
OOOOOOOMGOOOOOOOMG!!!!!!!!!!! OOOOOOOOOOOMG!!! Thank you for reacting to this💚💚💚💚💚
ROMANCE 101 PFP !!!
I like you watch the right sequence of their MVs
i loveeee watching your reactions, theyre always super insightful and add so many details that i wouldnt have originally noticed !
some bits of the mvs that i noticed and had thoughts on probably a lot of waffle but your vid got me excited sorry 😭
with nattys solo ive heard that it basically tells her story as she was homeless for a while living on couches and busking as she moved to korea from thailand on her own at a very young age to pursue kpop ! people have already mentioned to auditions parallelling her being on sixteen and idol school so im not gonna say anything there
in countdown belle seems to be super monitered by her mum, from the food she eats (being forced to eat sad looking greens) to the way she dresses and the music she listens and dances to and her only solace is her room, but even then its not safe since her mum has a secret key and violates her privacy even more. and the dad kinda fits the trope of the passive dad whos supposed to be the nice parent when next to the abusive mother but like.. hes silent when the mums doing too much and being awful so hes kinda as much at fault, no?
youre right julies storyline was a lotttt vaguer than the rest so i was a bit confused but i did notice she seemed really disinterested in everything and everyone and kinda partied as a mask for her distaste for everything? not very sure but in bye my neverland it was v interesting having that shot of her in bed w natty tracing her lips thinking thoughts
and haneuls storyline also had me feeling like those girls were bullying her 😭😭 like the switch up was insane, its also got another layer that shes the new kid in school and the only minority in that predominantly white area which makes me feel on edge in the interactions :( it felt like after she posted the video everyone was mocking her, especially w how after they filmed the video w her and were hugging her their eyes were solely on their friends recording them's cameras, not at haneul herself? it felt v like social climbers latching onto her for clout while secretly making fun of her like some oddity it felt weird, and setting her up with a super pushy guy also had me sideyeing the school girls 😭
but yeah overall super great storyline and i agree its so well done esp w how they interweave each other into the main narrative ! loved your reaction to it once again love your channel !
Best debut ever
And they are having a comeback soon 👀👀
They singing it live on radio was just HEAVEN
sugarcoat is easily my soty
katy girl i love you for this
Haneul’s song is a clippit of the good ol’ classic baseball song, “take me out to the ball game…” 😊
I’m obsessed with Belle
i looooove how smart u are at connecting the dots
I WAS WWITIJG FOR THISSS I KNEW U WOULD LVOE THEMM
Was SO EXCITED when I saw your reaction pop up on the timeline. Natty’s solo is my favourite, I think it’s one of my favourite releases of this year!
I know someone kind of commented about this already but Belle is the female voice in the outro of Mark's Child!! we were all confused who the female voice was when child dropped and belle posted about it on her instagram before she debuted
THEY ARE SOOOOO GOOD
yess i love them!!
you can see natty in haneuls solo at the clothing store, as well as you can ser haneul passing by in nattys solo
They are so talented im so happy jou finnaly can react to them
natty: main dancer, vocalist, lead rapper
belle: main vocal
julie: main rapper, lead dancer, sub vocalist
haneul: lead vocal, dancer, sub rapper
Another 10/10 video from Caitlin. Thank you Caitlin for everything ❤❤❤
THANK YOU SO MUCH
I'm glad you also realized how talented and good this new group is, like the rest of us KISSYs! (fandom name!) Excited for their first comeback in November
YES YES YES I HAD SO MUCH FAITH YOU WOULD REACT TO THEM
