For their debut they released two main songs: Pirate King and Treasure. Treasure was technically their debut song and Pirate King was the secondary song so the MV is a "performance" vid
Pirate king seemed like a secondary song for their debut.. but it's actually the song that introduced them (their very first ATEEZ song) as they first perform it at the last ep of code name ateez before they debut.. maybe that's why the MV is a performance vid.. correct me if I'm wrong
@@naashyyy pirate king was kind known to everyone who watched codename ateez. And the viewers already knew what to expect they used treasure for Ig and element of surprise. For pirate king, they made their raps, and choreo expect for the chorus. They did everything for that song.
On the official track list it's puts Title 1 for Pirate King and Title 2 for Treasure. So they're both debut songs. Pirate King just shows off their performance skills while Treasure fit for a MV better.
i think ateez has succeeded in creating a character that feels larger than life but also authentic. i dont know if that makes sense but it made sense in my head.
That's the official official MV 😂 don't worry I'm actually a little bit sad because you didn't say anything about the fact that they imitate the shape of a ship in the last chorus 😂
they actually mimic a pirate ship multiple times in the choreo, im quite surprised he didn't pick it up, but then again, I've watched the choreo multiple times to pick out all the symbolic features
KQ flew them to Morrocco to film this and Treasure (I'm pretty sure) they really bet a lot on these guys and I'm so happy it's paying off. They're such phenomenal performers, they do a great job of drawing you in. I love them so much and I'm constantly amazed by them. Like, they have been this great since the beginning! As usual, I love your input, and I felt like the comments about musical theatre were on point and a cool, different perspective. Thank you so much for all you do!
The choreographer of this song is Rie Hata.. she really came to Korea to see them and fix here and there.. they catch on really fast tho.. talent Correction: the chorus was choreographed by her and they completed the rest.. here's a link ua-cam.com/video/TMwqMvn_5ag/v-deo.html
They shot this MV in Morocco. And this is the official one, only a performance version was released. Their dual title track from Ep. 1, Treasure has a normal MV.
Ateez! I see I click lol. So Pirate King was their debut but so was Treasure, they had 2 debut songs and Mvs. The performance mv is the official, there isn't any other mv for it, it just means that unlike say with Answer how it showed some dance and then story, the performance mv shows the dancing. Pirate King always gets me bopin, it's so intense and I just can't not dance around my house but I do that with all of Ateez songs lol
@@JeffAvenue an official mv would have been good to see but in saying that I still love the performance one, love seeing them go full on in their dancing, I get a little jelly sometimes I admit lol
Please react to ATEEZ Horizon the dance was fast as hell and I think you'll gonna love it because of san sooo I hope you react to it, love your reaction.
They have a "zombie ver." of this, the "will you be my friend" is sooo creepy there! About the MV, the first two releases they did double title-tracks where one had the MV and the other had the performance ver., both are kind of connected (same concept and all). On the first release, "Treasure" got the MV, "Pirate King" got the performance ver. (so if you want to check out the aesthetic of their debut, check out Treasure!). The second release was "Say My Name" with MV and "Hala Hala" with performance! I think they chose based on the performance itself. Both "Treasure" and "Say My Name" are more interesting music-wise (don't think this word exists but I don't know how to say this in english haha), while Pirate King and Hala Hala are clearly more the performance type of song. The third release was a summer comeback and had "Wave" and "Illusion", both with MVs.
There's a zombie version of pirate King that they performed in the middle of the street and you can see how they show their expressions more into the story they want to tell. It's really good and I was amused as I love the theatrical aspect as well. You need to watch it
@@JeffAvenue they do an even more intriguing ship formation and ripple in 'Win'. It's way easier to see and understand the shape. But yeah the guys form the bow of the ship and the three in the back are like Captain and crew. 💜
Another thing I love about Ateez is that they show their respect for their leader (hongjoong) in the choreographies. They're like "look it's the captain" lmao and I love it bc Hongjoong really deserves this ❤️
I think one of the things that really drew me to Ateez was their facial expressions and expressive movements in their dance. Your description of 'musical theater' and 'showmanship' is spot on and I couldn't agree more!
hongjoong said that their biggest priority when dancing is their expressions and really performing “within” the dance as the characters they create, so i’m really glad you comment on that!
Honestly, I loved ATEEZ debut it was such a solid debut, I truly enjoyed their debut album. Also, Can you check out onlyoneof? they debuted last year and prob not a lot of people know about them but their songs are so dope. def one of my top favs. Check out Savanna by onlyonof, trust me on this one.

I get what u mean about their theatrical performances,i like them bcoz of their facial expressions when they perform especially Seonghwa and Hongjoon.They dont just dance with their body but also with their faces and hand gestures.IF U WATCH HALA HALA LIVE U WILL SEE WHAT I MEEN(the red costume one)
I feel like Ateez is so popular thanks to their music and concept. For me personally, I found their music so different and unique from other kpop groups. Their pirate concept was so cool as well. Ateez is just a well-rounded group overall, not only their music and choreographies are perfect, their personalities are as well.
So nice to revisit this song. Watching you react to this choreo was so refreshing. ATEEZ is so great each time they come up with something it takes a lot to absorb and it's sometimes hard to fully appreciate whatever came before that. Thank you for taking us in this journey
Your analysis is so insightful. I didn't realize the choreography reflected much of the theme of the song (the pirate movement in the beginning) and how it's very theatrical.
Wooyoung freaking destroyed this Choreography!!! The best part is that the members each came up with the choreography for different parts and I'm pretty sure Wooyoung came up with the beginning part of the choreo.
"omg that's so creepy :c" This reminds me of the Halloween performance they made right after their debut with this song. I was SO good even though they were the "new ones" coming from a new company that didn't have any other groups
Because they are a group of 8, they have to experiment with formations a lot to keep it interesting as it could be simple as they have an even number, but they do change it up a lot and that’s one of the reasons they are my favourites in the industry
Yup, this is the right music video. They usually film not so crazy looking videos for some of their bsides on the album but we, atinys, appreciate it very much. Some are more of an actual mv (aurora for example), others are just of them dancing or having fun (like promise, they filmed it while they were on their first tour). I can't wait for your next reactions ♥️
a fun fact about the pirate king choreo is that they choreographed all of it except the point choreo in the chorus, which was choreographed by riehata. she gifted them the choreo and then they had a day to create the rest to perform to the judges. it was all filmed and part of their pre-debut reality show, 'code name is ateez'
thats the official mv for Pirate King, the reason why its performance ver is because they want to show that they are really good at performing from the beginning and thats the reason why they are the KING OF PERFORMERS IN KPOP INDUSTRY NOW ! ✊🏻❤️
You can watch, CODE NAME IS ATEEZ to know more about their journey before debuting and they include the recording when they first recorded this song. Everything was so real and fun. You should watch
I love your reactions! I watched so many videos from you in a row and its definitely not getting boring! You seem like a really nice person. (Sorry for my english skills, I'm from germany 😅)
Unrelated, but with covid going around I would like y'all to know that Yahweh/Jesus loves y'all 💕 and that you guys should get to know him for yourselves. Life is so short and even if some people ignore this message because they don't believe, I hope you still will be blessed, happy and healthy. Please pray for yourselves, family and even favorite celebrities. Be wise always when it comes to anything. Tv, music, anything. Do research because some things can really effect your mood, spirit, and mind. Spend your time focusing on good things and becoming your best selves.. 🙏 be safe yall ❤
I know we all love Jongho (I do, too), I also notice you love his higher register. To me, it sounds very strained and unhealthy, so I don't enjoy his higher range in worry he is unnecessarily straining his vocal cords by not opening-up (he also looks very tense while singing high notes which also worries me). I do, however, very much enjoy his low to mid-range vocals.
Looks like you don't know Jongho that much right? Even Jeff noticed how Jongho can hit notes easily but he tends to act dramatic while hitting them to give it more emotions. Check videos of him hitting high notes offstage and you will see how he hit every single note with a easy
tbh jongho doesn’t strain that much, as for someone who stans them since pre debut I could totally tell the difference when he’s singing from pre debut up to now. Before he’s also singing singing a lot of highnotes but his face isn’t really that dramatic unlike to his stages now. The only stage that he strained a lot is during mama with Goodbye baby lmao. A lot of vocal coaches always tells that jongho hits the high notes really well without straining as well
I think part of him not opening up might do with nervousness, expectations and insecurities, he said before he was insecure of his smile but he seems to be more relaxed now and hits his high notes with more ease now. Besides, him singing in a high register while breaking apples might have helped in him being able to do so easily ahahahah
Hey :) no need to worry. I've seen a reaction by a vocal teacher/coach...he reacted to ateez's vocals and yes on Jongho's vocals... She said jongho has a very good. If not perfect technique! So there really is no need to worry :) another video from someone else pointed out he has the biggest range out of all of them and can reach the high notes fairly easily!
From what I’ve seen on his live performances, the position of his head and mouth doesn’t indicate straining. He has a broadway technique (like Rock of Ages) 😁 His chin doesn’t go up, which means he’s using his instrument well. Hard to achieve 😁
I still remember when I first saw them perform this song (with dingo I guess) I legit thought this was a cover of a senior song, because their confidence was up there, they were disguised in zombie and the "theatricality" was even better !!!! I immediately knew they would be big one day
Only their two most recent comebacks, Wonderland and Answer were solo titles/mvs. ATEEZ's debut and first couple comebacks they pushed a dual sided story that teased overlap then converged at Wonderland and Answer. Debut titles were Treasure and Pirate King, Say My Name and Hala Hala were their first comeback (b track desire is my most played song on Spotify lolwoops) and Wave and Illusion were their summer comeback. Their debut was October of 2018 and Say My Name/Hala Hala, Wave/Illusion, and Wonderland and their associated albums were all in 2019 with Wonderland promotions overlapping their 1 year anniversary. Answer of course soon followed early in 2020
There is another debut song together with 'pirate king' called 'treasure'. After all their mvs, I highly recommend 'Win' and 'Horizon' music bank stage.
seonghwa choreographed 80% of it, seonghwa best choreographer. his choreography skills needs more recognition, kq please let him choreograph a whole song
Ateez debuted with Treasure, which is their official debut song, but they also put out Pirate King, the song they promoted that era, and there's only the performance version out, but it's the one that was more relevant because it set them up as a kpop group with a focus on performance. I think that's a way to put it.
Actually for their debut and their two first comebacks they had two title tracks each time. Usually one song was more hard for dancing (e.g. HalaHala) and the other one was the main title track (e.g. Say My Name). So their official debut song is Treasure which is the one that got the MV. Please watch that as well, it's really pretty and they filmed both Pirate King and Treasure in Morocco!
04:33 Their concept of the group are actually Peter Pan & Pirates of the Caribbean (you can heard the lyrics of Wonderland, Hongjoong mentioned Peter pan in his rap and mingi with Jack Sparrow in his rap.) Their concept is like Pirates, and the storyline kinda thing is like Peter Pan (Mostly).
i think you really hit the nail on the head about why ateez is getting so much more popular so fast. i'm looking forward to being able to say i was there from the very beginning in a few years when they're as big as some other boy groups that shall not be named. also unrelated but id love to see your reaction to some of the performances on road to kingdom, particularly too's rising sun cover and golden child's t.o.p. cover (the second is very contemporary and theatrical and i think youd like it a lot)
My personal favourite part of the choreo is right before the beat drops again after the bridge, that move looks so much like Luffys Gear Second. Dunno if it was intentional but that kinda move in a song called "Pirate King" I really love😂😂
Oh yes I waited for this! :) please also go and watch the Horizon dance practice! I don't know why but I simply adore this dance! It's amazing! And I also want to recommend Monsta X! They also have really nice and powerful songs as well as choreographies! I would recommend Alligator, Shoot Out, Follow, Oh my, Beautiful, Dramarama and many more!

Yeah like please, I was sad he didn't point it out :(
Can we just take a minute to appreciate Yeosang...periodt!
The twist to the floor. Every time im like OH HIS BACK OH HIS KNEES OH HIS HANDS :(
That's the official official MV 😂 don't worry
I'm actually a little bit sad because you didn't say anything about the fact that they imitate the shape of a ship in the last chorus 😂
I've watched the practice video so many times and I never noticed that 😭
they actually mimic a pirate ship multiple times in the choreo, im quite surprised he didn't pick it up, but then again, I've watched the choreo multiple times to pick out all the symbolic features
Yeah, I’ve actually noticed they imitate or try to ‘become’ a pirate ship in a few of their choreography’s, like for example their song ‘Win’
WHAT I NEVER NOTICED THAT AND I WATCHED THIS SO MANY TIMES😭 I FEEL LIKE A FAKE FAN NOW😂
I've noticed them doing it in the first verse but never in the second :/
"it's so fluffy" me at yunho at all times

Yes pirate king is my favourite ATEEZ song and debut is my favourite era. Shout out to all the day 1 Atiny's
the MV was shot in Morocco , my coutry they even shot in my city !!! i didnt know whether to cry or laugh that time

honestly even tho that this was one of the debut songs it's still one of my favourits

Besides, him singing in a high register while breaking apples might have helped in him being able to do so easily ahahahah
Hey :) no need to worry. I've seen a reaction by a vocal teacher/coach...he reacted to ateez's vocals and yes on Jongho's vocals... She said jongho has a very good. If not perfect technique! So there really is no need to worry :) another video from someone else pointed out he has the biggest range out of all of them and can reach the high notes fairly easily!

There is another debut song together with 'pirate king' called 'treasure'. After all their mvs, I highly recommend 'Win' and 'Horizon' music bank stage.
seonghwa choreographed 80% of it, seonghwa best choreographer. his choreography skills needs more recognition, kq please let him choreograph a whole song
Ateez are performance Kings !!!
This song is literally fire and one of my favorites from them.
Since you mentioned the desert I hope you react to:
Drip Drop by Taemin

he's going to do it and I'm so excited to see it as it showcases his dancing a lot more
jeff reaction contents is one of my favorite
Listen to wave it’s like a totally different concept, it’s so cute and fun!! It’s amazingggg!
i see ateez i click kfdjs thanks jeff ♥️
Its like 12:48am right now and I got to sleep but I see this video and now I dont want to..oh well I will survive I'm watching this
Another great reaction~ Thank you once again
Ateez debuted with Treasure, which is their official debut song, but they also put out Pirate King, the song they promoted that era, and there's only the performance version out, but it's the one that was more relevant because it set them up as a kpop group with a focus on performance. I think that's a way to put it.
Actually for their debut and their two first comebacks they had two title tracks each time. Usually one song was more hard for dancing (e.g. HalaHala) and the other one was the main title track (e.g. Say My Name). So their official debut song is Treasure which is the one that got the MV. Please watch that as well, it's really pretty and they filmed both Pirate King and Treasure in Morocco!
04:33 Their concept of the group are actually Peter Pan & Pirates of the Caribbean (you can heard the lyrics of Wonderland, Hongjoong mentioned Peter pan in his rap and mingi with Jack Sparrow in his rap.)
Their concept is like Pirates, and the storyline kinda thing is like Peter Pan (Mostly).
ateez has two debut songs, Pirate King and Treasure, there is an MV for treasure and the Pirate King performance ver is the official one
i think you really hit the nail on the head about why ateez is getting so much more popular so fast. i'm looking forward to being able to say i was there from the very beginning in a few years when they're as big as some other boy groups that shall not be named.
also unrelated but id love to see your reaction to some of the performances on road to kingdom, particularly too's rising sun cover and golden child's t.o.p. cover (the second is very contemporary and theatrical and i think youd like it a lot)
My personal favourite part of the choreo is right before the beat drops again after the bridge, that move looks so much like Luffys Gear Second.
Dunno if it was intentional but that kinda move in a song called "Pirate King" I really love😂😂
oh my god, this is such a throwback.. they were so small back then, so cute, and fluffy.. :::(((
Also Jeff I you're planning to react to more Ateez I would suggest some fun songs like Illusion and Wave
Oh yes I waited for this! :) please also go and watch the Horizon dance practice! I don't know why but I simply adore this dance! It's amazing!
And I also want to recommend Monsta X! They also have really nice and powerful songs as well as choreographies! I would recommend Alligator, Shoot Out, Follow, Oh my, Beautiful, Dramarama and many more!
I JUST REALIZED THE ICON IS JEFF?!!?!??!! his little hair and head onlllllllll
YAS YAS YAS YAAASSS!!! This song+choreo got me into them 😍😍😍😍😍 it's REALLY good
OMG I LIVE FOR YOUR ATEEZ CONTENT 😭😭😭
the audio gets more and more out of sync and eye- 🥺
Chimchim Jiminnie that tends to happen for longer videos idk why 😩
I love the fact that ateez made this coreo
Best part of this choreo: yeosang's twist into a drop to the ground. How does he do that
