Originally, ATEEZ stands for what teenagers like from A to Z… but the meaning was broaden as they realized that their public is more than teenagers 💗
Darn right their fans are more than teenagers.
Yes hongjoon said whatever your age but be a teenager😇❤️
@@KOFAME-fv3tr So basically he is saying “no matter your age, it’s ok not being mature all the time” Lol ....Kidding!!!
@@ellie_jeann yes bcoz if u become mature u become boring and serious mostly people as like me too but whenever see their funny childish games and behavior 🤪 I imagine myself happy as like my teenage time
@@KOFAME-fv3tr Exactly, its okay to bring out our kid side sometimes to somehow balance out being adults while laughing about the stupid stuff we did as kids etc.
Ooh if she’s a rock fan the new Japanese album (May 25th) might be up her street, from what we’ve been told it’s Rocky as the title track but with some added elements (there’s a new song too but we don’t know anything about it )
Oh and it’s the perfect time to upload this, I’m pretty sure today is the 1 year anniversary of the wonderland performance airing
Oh really. I'm quite interested to hear the new album, including all the variants.
YES PROMOTE PROMOTE
Really enjoyed the interaction between you & your friend! It’s fun & interesting to hear from a non-Kpop fan’s perspective😄
Thank you!
Thanks for the reacts and introducing them to your friend. Wonderland is an anthem song. For Kingdom Ateez couldn't go on the show and just do normal performances. You won't see them turning flips nor all the fighting during normal performances, this was a competition so it required more theatrics. Now Ateez are theatrical in performances already with their expressions but not always as aggressive. Answer isn't an aggressive song at all if she watched the music video. The same was done with their Wave song. Wave is a happy, cheerful song yet for this competition it was turned into an aggressive song. Black Cat Nero is rock vibe. Also, Ateez Stay cover is rock. She may like those.
Absolutely agree. The performances on Kingdom were next level.
I will live for the Answer ode to joy performance, the fact that they chose this song means so much for us, fellow Atinys
Every time Answer Ode to Joy comes up on my playlist, the volume gets maxed.
Look at you explaining storylines and everything! Well done😄
This is a bit similar to how me introducing ATEEZ' (and some others') to my mother went - the music isn't necessarily for her but she likes the storytelling elements their performances have.
(I'm pretty close to my 30s but I do absolutely know KISS, though while I like some rock and metal they aren't really my thing)
Y'all have taught me so much through the comments. Time for me to start spreading the knowledge.
Oohhh I’m early!! I’m glad to know that I’m not the only one that isn’t over with ATEEZ’s Kingdom performances yet! 😭
A not so brief explanation of the performances below:
Wonderland: mainly covers the part of their storyline that they are pirates. I don’t really know for sure if the kraken is part of their storyline or if it’s just a performance thing used solemnly for kingdom but, my guess is that it is of their storyline too.
Rythm Tá: covers the part of their storyline that they are rebels against the government, governed by giant androids (they do not show up in the performance tho), and the androids manipulate the population of Strictland* to not consume art, dance and music because they deem human emotions are a disease. This performance shows them performing a heist (deeply inspired by Money Heist series, Hongjoong told us later). Atinys still don’t know what they need this money for yet though 😭
* Strictland is another dimension, different from the one that ATEEZ are pirates. And yes, ATEEZ’s storyline has a dimension traveling thing, and they can do that while they have the hourglass with them (the one the guy with black fedora delivers to pirate Captain Hongjoong in the beginning of Wonderland, and the one that the rebel “Hala” Hongjoong gets from the heist in the end of Rythm Tá. “Real ATEEZ” is the name for ATEEZ that came from the Wonderland dimension, and “HALATEEZ” is the name for ATEEZ that came from Strictland, the dystopian dimension.
Answer: is the one I have most trouble to understand deeply to be honest, but what I know is that this is a big battle against those giant androids (white masked guys) which I explained above… and ATEEZ from both dimensions fight together. Observation: for this performance, they invited a group of opera singers called La Poem and managed to mix an opera song and singers to their energetic pop song??? That is honestly chef kiss from me 💋And for Wonderland, Hongjoong had the idea to mix Sympony N9 (I don’t remember the original artist 😭) to their song also, and it sounds epic in the end. Hongjoong is genius I swear
I think this is the basics? 😭😭😭
Oh wow, thank you for all the great information. I hadn't realized that ATEEZ's other dimension had been named. Nor did I know that the white-masked guys were supposed to be androids.

More notes because I can’t shut up
The Wonderland performance was considered #1 of the top 15 k-pop performances of 2021 by Genius Korea, and one of the secret judges of Kingdom said that they were so amazed by their performance that they went to ATEEZ’s show in Seoul and had a great time.
Wonderland performance was inspired by The Pirates of the Caribbean series, Hongjoong’s idea :)
As ATEEZ performed in their world tour in 2022, their wonderland performance now carry that one part where Seonghwa defeats the Kraken with a shotgun but, instead of a shotgun, he slays the kraken with a sword (genius performer Yunho’s idea 💗) and unfortunately they couldn’t bring the big kraken tentacle with them to the arenas so we only get the kraken through the screens 💔 (or as Wooyoung once said in an interview, they ate her (the kraken)😂)
The Hongjoong’s speech part of Rythm Tá’s performance is a direct reference of Money Heist series, and as Hongjoong introduced his self written rap part (it’s not part of the original song), he makes references of Spanish literature as well, mentioning Don Quixote and Sancho… and I’ve read one interpretation on Twitter about it that Don Quixote is the one with “the head in the clouds”, as he doesn’t have his mindset stuck with reality, and Sancho as the one who is very stuck to the reality…. And that connects to their storyline as there are times when ATEEZ are conscious of the dystopian world they are in (HALA HALA, fireworks,…) , or are stuck in an illusion, utopian world (illusion, wave, eternal sunshine). This is beyond smart for me, nobody can convince me otherwise.
By the Rythm Tá performance, it was the first time that San had contact and performed the B-Boying style of dance… he slayed it !!
As for answer, there are many details that we are not sure what they mean exactly like San sacrificing himself to take down one of the androids? Jongho throwing the crown away? The things that bow down when the opera singers show up are not simply decorations but they are actually referring to one of those iron factory things (?) that iron runs down them and as the four of them reach the floor, a new crown is made… merged… and ATEEZ’s logo in kingdom has a crown on top of their name…… they don’t want an already existing crown, they want to make their own? And this whole idea is really cool as ATEEZ had said in numerous times that they want to build their own path to success and they dislike being compared to senior groups…
In conclusion, ATEEZ IS TOP TIER. They shine on their own, and I believe that someday, they will shine the brightest, and hopefully people won’t keep turning their backs to them to see them shining.
@@kpopauntie it’s difficult to get this little details across to fans only by the MVs so the details about their storyline is in the notes that come in their albums, and you can easily find scans of them in Twitter if you are ever interested 💗
@@minkiway3370 Thank you again! One of these days, I'm going to have to dive into their universe. There's just so much content coming out right now, though! It's fascinating how ATEEZ incorporates all of these little details and gives us so many things to think about. Just crazy. Thank you for taking the time on the long comment.
@@kpopauntie my pleasure!
Your friend is such a mood, i luv her so much already.
Leslie is so much fun.
I almost forgot that was when MINGI couldn’t be present because he was still mentally recovery from high anxiety issue.
Which is pretty sad, because I love Mingi's voice.
@@kpopauntie Yea it was, but he does make a full return during their Deju Vu comeback.
Fun to watch non-kpop fans getting to see stages and performance from Ateez. But the last part about Kiss and tongues and all that, I think, if you haven't already, you should watch Ateez interview with Jessi...
Thank you, I'm going to have to find that interview.
@@kpopauntie I was in a hurry last time, but here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/SdOFZ0-_MYI/v-deo.html
Oh I am loving your videos of you showing your friend the world of Kpop! I always love seeing new reactions from people who are just discovering it! These were legendary Ateez performances and I am glad you got to show them to her!
Side note - Monsta X has a comeback coming up in a week and would love to see you react to some of their stuff if possible. They are a group I think you would love! Their discography is insane. :)
I'm really enjoying checking drawing Leslie in to the world of Kpop.
I've been meaning to do a deep dive on Monsta X, but everyone has been doing comebacks lately. There's so much content. Maybe I'll do it this week... or next.
Love your video. Ateez was so good at Kingdom. Every performance was a bop
I was awestruck by the Kingdom performances.
17:53 it doesn't sound out of place tho. You guys didn't even properly heard and watched the performance so when the melody changed, you guys thought it was out of place. This is why it's important to pause the video if you have smthng to say bcoz in the end, reactors don't understand the performance.
Again, this reaction would be better if it wasn't dominated by chitchatting.
Just point in case that these reactions with my friend may not be for you. Other viewers hate constant pausing. It breaks up the flow of the song and also causes disruption in understanding. Chitchatting is what Leslie and I will be doing, so you'll want to avoid reactions with her in them. I'm watching the entirety of Kingdom over on Patreon. I understand that the opera theme in the Ode to Joy performance wasn't "out of place". It just seems to pop out of nowhere for someone unfamiliar to Kpop.
I understand what you mean, everything they are doing on stage...the singing, dancing, background music is actually setting up the change to Opera at that point in the performance. We don't mean to criticize Kpop Auntie at all, we are just explaining why it might have seemed to be out of place for her friend since she wasn't watching/listening in the moments before the switch.
@@physicslady1678 Agreed. The tempo changes are very "out of place" in US-based music. Songs usually sound the same all the way through. I love how Kpop transitions from genre to genre within on song, but you're right, it's going to take those used to single-genre music by surprise, even if they were listening intently.
I recommend Black Cat Nero and their cover of Stay since they're both rock. Turbulence has softer raps and highlights vocals as do Promise and A
Not Too Late. Wave shows a different side of them. Also, she might like the original version of Answer better since it's less aggressive.
There's a rookie group whose title tracks remind me of Queen. Their name is Kingdom. You might try their debut Excalibur or Karma. Each member"s stage name comes from a different kingdom like Arthur and Louis.
Fun fact the first season of the show was called Queendom. The current season (this week episode 3 will air) is Queendom 2.
Thank you for the recommendations! I didn't have Kingdom on the list yet.
You guys should react to victon if you haven't already is a very under rated group but i think you'll like them
Thank you! I'm noting Victon down. Love the username, by the way.
If she’s more into ROCK then she needs to react to Seventeen - Rock with you MV ... LOL 😂 (see what I did there?)
Love it. I'm definitely adding this one to my list. Thank you. ROCK on.
For your friend since she's a rock fan i think Happy Death Day by Xdinary Heroes would be more her taste idk. It's very alt rock-esque and i think she'd enjoy the MV too :)
That's a good one! I'm going to have to do Xdinary Heroes with her next time she comes over.
Thanks for reacting to ATEEZ but I think your friend should'va appreciate the song more if you guys had paused the video when you guys have smthng to comment about.
Thanks for watching! I went into the ATEEZ reaction knowing that it wasn't her cup of tea, so I don't think any amount of pausing would have increased her enjoyment of the song.
She may not like skz but i wanna see her reaction to their kingdom performances bc compared to ateez the dance and everything is so much more intense
That's what u think yes
I can probably make that happen.
@@kpopauntie if not we can have another video of her slowly cringing at skz
Respectfully, I think Mayfly's Wolf performance argues against your theory.
i like both groups but i’d have to disagree that skz’s performances were more intense than ateez’s, both were intense but ateez’s was on another level imo
