I love that you guys enjoy AESPA! Tbh, they make a lot of great bops and I agree that they really do balance each other very well. It is interesting though because after “Savage” if going in order you have “Dreams Come True” and “Girls” that still follow the predominant storyline they debuted with. But there is a shift (as I mentioned before) with their more recent releases and after “Life’s Too Short” a song that addresses their haters. Their music is still great after but a lot of ppl did recognize a little change of focus with their storyline. Because “Spicy” “Better Things” “Drama” and their b-sides released since then have been relaxed w the heavy black mamba and ae (avatar) references. As you know they do have the “Black Mamba” storyline and so in “Savage” Aespa finally entering into the KWANGYA to defeat the BLACK MAMBA. They sing about being savage (not being scared) and when the time comes they will defeat the mamba and the time to is getting closer (which hint I'm pretty sure happens in "GIRLS"). Also, the part you asked about “what was that” is Naevis. NAEVIS is an “AI system that helps the aes (avatars) of AESPA appear in the real world, allowing them to be seen by the real AESPA members.” Savage did really good on music charts, debuted at #4 on Gaon Digital Chart, #14 on Billboard’s world digital song sales, #37 on Billboard’s Hot Kpop 100, #60 on Billboard Japan Hot 100, and #77 on Billboard global 200. They also ascended positions to higher peaks as well. "Savage" also achieved top scores on various South Korean weekly music programs which are very prominent in South Korea that helps with kpop idols’ songs promotions, sales, streams, etc. SAVAGE won eight music show awards and won the "triple crown" award. Some MYS (their fandom) miss this era of AESPA though because they kind of moved out of it but tbh since “Girls” I really enjoyed their music even more and you’ll maybe see why perhaps but then you guys really love this side of them too so this will be interesting to see yall’s take on. The members: Karina: Leader, Main Dancer, Lead Rapper, Vocalist, Visual, Face Of The Group, Center, Korean, 23yo. 4:44 Giselle: Main Rapper, Sub Vocalist, Japanese-Korean, 23yo 4:27 Winter: Lead Vocalist, Lead Dancer, Sub Rapper, Visual, Korean, 23yo 4:33 NingNing: Main Vocalist, Maknae, Chinese, 21yo. 4:55 Also, I should make it known that Karina was recently reported to be in a relationship with notable South Korean actor Lee Jae Wook. Congrats to their relationship because honestly Kpop idols and relationships in such an industry tend to get a lot lot of backlashed reactions. Also, they were technically exposed by Korea’s biggest news stalkers “Dispatch” but still she deserves to be happy like anyone else and she is getting heat right now kinda so yea. Thx for the reaction!
This is great info. It appears Coach did get the names correct. Yay! 😁 We do look forward to what their newer stuff sounds like and thanks for pointing out that there is another one before "Girls".
The members recently talked about the fact that before Giselle joined the debut team, Aespa was meant to have a very cutesy, almost generic concept, but Giselle's arrival actually injected the team with such attitude that the whole concept got turned around and ended up being the Aespa we know and love today!

👏👏 This one is tops for me, from AESPA! So dynamic, had to add it to my newest playlist for work. Loved the reaction, especially the honesty! Saying a song is "OK" is just fine! I mean, different tastes, different styles, different moods, it's a journey! Also: 69k views on Mamamoo "Killing Voice" -- Nice~
Finding talented young people and putting them together in cohesive ensembles seems to be central to the whole K-Pop industry. That's what the agencies do, in intense competition with each other (the agencies).
How did I miss this yesterday! This is a pre comment but I was OBSESSED with this song! The dance break is like every button on the studio was pressed idk it gets me every single time!
Aespa had performed in Coachella about 2 yrs ago after BlackPing in 2019, & also appeared in Good Morning America TV show about 1 or 2 yrs. ago. As always, I'm enjoying, admiring, & appreciating both of you at the comfort of my cozy residence. Greatly Grateful & Gratified w/ your reaction. (03/13/24)
aespa's KARINA and WINTER are also part of a super group called "GOT (Girls On Top) the beat". GOT the beat dropped 'Step Back' and 'Stamp On It' Stage Videos. They also released 'Stamp On It' MV (1st Mini Album). *"GOT the beat" is composed of 7 members* : 1. *BoA* (Soloist) (1st gen) 2. *Hyoyeon/HYO* (Member of Girls' Generation/SNSD) (2nd gen) 3. *Taeyeon* (The leader of Girls' Generation/SNSD) (2nd gen) 4. *Wendy* (Red Velvet member) (3rd gen) 5. *Seulgi* (Red Velvet member) (3rd gen) 6. *Winter* (aespa member) (4th gen) 7. *Karina* (The leader of aespa) (4th gen) *All of these female artists are under SM Entertainment.*
I know people are divided about early Aespa, but I love the songs and the lore. For me, I appreciate that each of the songs are telling a larger story about their battle against the black mamba. It’s not about love, it’s not about a boy or heartbreak. It’s a soundtrack and propels the story forward.
Their videos are so connected to their SM Culture Universe episodes everything ties in very well with the story arc it's quite impressive what they've done here. But if you just watch the music videos alone you won't understand it and might find yourself saying "What's happening?"
AESPA's early music received alot of negative comments because of the different unusual sound. But in my opinion, it's really good. Plus they, and other girl groups, were/ are compared to BLACKPINK. Which isn't fair because every group has and finds it's own sound and style. Love them, can't wait for your next react ❤
In case you guys didn't know: SM entertainment is part of the 'BIG 4' kpop entertainment companies. The 'BIG 4' are the biggest kpop companies in the planet. Here in the U.S. we have the BIG 3 in music too (Universal Music, Warner music and Sony Music), Hollywood has the BIG 5 too (DISNEY, PARAMOUNT, COLUMBIA sony pictures, WARNER BROS. and UNIVERSAL) Here are the BIG 4 (from the biggest company to the lesser one, but that doesn't mean that because that company is lesser it isn't big, the company is still part of the BIG 4 for a reason) 1) HYBE (BTS, NewJeans, SEVENTEEN, Le sserafim, TXT, etc..) .. -- There will be a gap below because HYBE is just a juggernaut compared to the other 3. There's no competition there, but they are still part of the BIG 4. -- Oh and HYBE owns shares on SM entertainment, they are part owners of SM, this is how BIG HYBE actually is. . . . 2) SM (EXO, aespa, Girls Generation, Red Velvet, NCT, etc...) 3) JYP (TWICE, Stray Kids, ITZY, NMIXX, Day 6, etc...) 4) YG (BLACKPINK, BABYMONSTER, TREASURE, WINNER, AKMU, etc...)
They have a Universe called SMCU(SMent Culture Universe) All the Aespa and SM artists connected by this SMCU and This Universe's main character is Aespa. Animated Characters and Naevis things even Lylics All related with SMCU. and They have a short movie for SMCU that Aespa comes. But these days, SM doesnt put effort to SMCU, cause SM's CEO has changed. New CEO dont want put some Universe to Artists. SMCU influenced Aespa song is 'Black Mamba', 'Next Level', 'Savege', 'Girls' These four songs match the SMCU story order. So Next song is Girls.
My biases are nignig and karina my bias wreckers are winter and Giselle ❤❤❤❤❤ Nignig is Main vocal WINTER is main/ lead vocal Visual Karina is Sub vocal and Visual and lead Rapper Giselle is Sub vocal and Main Rapper
Aespa is one of the biggest popular groups in the industry people just like to hate in them they already played Coachella and everything their songs last year were amazing but I also liked the old stuff yes sometimes you have to listen more than once sometimes it grows on you but their is denying their amazing talent and dancing and vocals ning ning is my favorite and winter but all 4 are amazing and they all can act too you should see winter drama trailor
You guys HAVE to react to Got the beat step back!! It’s a super group with girls from Aespa girls generation and red velvet! It’s similar to this style !!’n
G idle has similar A.I avatar too but on live stage for the song K/da - superstar. Live event for league of legend. Coaches also said ya like that song in their killing verse
you will get use to the switch ups it's a Kpop thing, the theory is they do it to keep your interest throughout the song, not sure if someone told you this but Aespa is a word that combines the words Avatar and Experience
i concur with your order of preference. Savage takes the 'I Got A Boy' influence a step too far in my opinion but I admit to enjoying it more the more I listen to it. I think my favourite song of theirs is 'Life's Too Short (English Version)" which has a great message to haters and is a bop - it has an official MV for the English version but a Korean version was included on the album.
Some of these songs do take more than one listen, which can be true for any type of music, of course. But yeah, we're still liking this group a lot and want to hear more from them.
"what happend?" hehe. If you watch SM cultural universe epp.1 2 and 3 you will understand the first Aespa videos better. Same goes for Girls, the conclusion of the story line. It's a cyber syfy show that SM entertainment made back in the day and Aespa was build around the show. Now days it's behind them, more or less. Girls is the last in this style so you should do that next :). There newest stuff is very good too though. Watch Drama and then do the live stage of Drama. It's really good :)
One of my favourites! The way Winter kicks it off with the "Don't you know I'm a savage?" is just killer. Love it. You got the names right Coach, don't worry! As I saw someone in the comments point out, there is actually the song Dreams come true before Girls, but you should be aware that it is a cover of an old K-pop song so it definitely has a different sound than Aespas normal thing. It would be really cool if you did both versions though, just to compare. I like Aespas better.
On Wikipedia it states The group's name, Aespa, combines the English initials for "avatar" and "experience" (Avatar X Experience) with the English word "aspect", meaning "two sides", to symbolize the idea of "meeting another self and experiencing the new world". The coloured eyes may relate to the Avatars of themselves.
I always thought the different color eyes on Karina Represents the Corruption of the Black Mamba Virus since she was corrupted by Black Mamba back in the 1st Video.
Sadly "Savage" is my least favorite title track from aespa. They already half lost me with "Next Level" but this sealed the deal. Not because of the switch ups, I usually love switch ups. The songs just didn't work for me personally (and I never was a fan of their old "virtual avatar" concept). Though I came back later in 2022 thx to "Girls". Their 2023 line up was even better. Aespa became "Best Female Group of 2023" for me because of their amazing releases and now I'm fully on board. On a side note: Winter from aespa was on Leemujin Service. If you wanna experience her vocals (and personality) on her own in a stripped down purely acoustic live setting (not unlike to Rose's Sea Of Hope Performances) and learn a bit about Winter along the way, this episode of Leemujin Service (EP72) is really worth reacting to. Goes in general for the whole show, but especially this one, which became one of my favorites (and made me a huge fan of Winter).
I had a similar appreciation curve with Aespa and NMixx. In the first several listens, I wanted to like their songs more than I actually did. The talent was there but the transitions felt a little disjointed initially. Then once I learned the changes and knew to anticipate them, I liked it a lot better. Then in later releases I am not sure whether my ears adjusted or they fine tuned the style, but I followed along with Spicy and Drama right from the beginning.
My peronaly fav voise of aespa is karina In blackpink its jisoo In fiftyfifty its aran In twice its Jeongyon In itzy its yeji and ryujin but i love all ❤
I'm not sure if y'all've addressed this or not, but I'd love to see you react to some "guides" for some of these groups y'all like! They'd be longer reactions, but it'd be fun for you guys to get to know the personalities of the members and get some background on the groups, and I think we'd like to laugh along with you!
Thanks. Yes, we've certainly considered that. Mrs. Coach has an oral surgery coming up soon so we've been keeping with shorter reactions so we can do more of them in case she is out of commission for a bit. Once we're past that we'll look at some longer content. Appreciate you, as always!
Coach to be fair to aespa that's their older stuff their recent songs don't have switch ups they have many big songs last year and you would love spicy
Reaccionen por fiss a Vcha. Es un nuevo grupo global de jyp , las chicas son incleibles y debutaron hace poquito se que les gustará ,sus musicas son buenas y dos de ellas tienen linaje latino ❤ no se arrepentiran ,y buena reacción aespa son incleibles 🫶 saluditos
aespa fans are going to come after me, but this is indicative of my opinion that this group would be more popular right now if their company hadn't been obsessed with being "different" and "unique". These girls are very talented, but the AI concept and the experimentalism actually put a lot of people off. It seems like their popularity is growing faster now that they've started relying more on the talent of the group and less on gimmickry. Some fans really like the AI and lore, but it just doesn't have as wide an appeal as the company seems to have thought it would. That doesn't mean that these early songs were, in any way, bad, just that it kind of overshadowed the very real talent that this group has.
Nah for me was the opposite, i really loved this AI/sci-fi concept (the visuals and the music) but then they changed the whole concept for that "better things to do" comeback and i don't like it, i find it boring and generic but i get your point, most people would find the new concepts more enjoyable
Please please please please please please please please please please please reaction on BTS Film out live song (film out music blood). Please please reaction on BTS 's songs too plzzzzzz. Live one and official toooo plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Well that's interesting. She certainly stands out in a unique way.
The MV is INSANE. The song is DOPE.
This is my favorite title track because it has lots of switches but they still manage to slay.

Aespa does got some talents for sure

Thank you! Appreciate that.
I heard that aespa will have a comeback in May
Very cool.

React to Aespa SM culture episode 1-3 to get a better understanding of the Mv’s storyline of the black mamba

Yes we read in the comments about the name. Very cool.
PRAY FOR WINTER 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️
Oh, wow, just looked up news on her and saw that. Not good.
Aespa fi number one gen four 🎉❤
React to Drama by Aespa next ❤❤ 😭😭😍😍
They didn’t even try to make the avatars prettier than the girls because it’s impossible. How are they real?
Good observation!
Karina and winter and ningning and Giselle

i concur with your order of preference. Savage takes the 'I Got A Boy' influence a step too far in my opinion but I admit to enjoying it more the more I listen to it.

I can‘t wait for you to see „Drama“ by aespa! ❤️
One of my favourites! The way Winter kicks it off with the "Don't you know I'm a savage?" is just killer. Love it.
You got the names right Coach, don't worry!
As I saw someone in the comments point out, there is actually the song Dreams come true before Girls, but you should be aware that it is a cover of an old K-pop song so it definitely has a different sound than Aespas normal thing. It would be really cool if you did both versions though, just to compare. I like Aespas better.
Great info. And appreciate the confirmation about the names.
On Wikipedia it states
The group's name, Aespa, combines the English initials for "avatar" and "experience" (Avatar X Experience) with the English word "aspect", meaning "two sides", to symbolize the idea of "meeting another self and experiencing the new world".
The coloured eyes may relate to the Avatars of themselves.
Very interesting theory. That's good stuff.
I always thought the different color eyes on Karina Represents the Corruption of the Black Mamba Virus since she was corrupted by Black Mamba back in the 1st Video.
🔥🔥🔥
OMG don't you know i mma sandwich
LOL!
Ningning is my bias since aespa debut 😅 coach ¡get yours! (Just kidding) 😂
😆 🤣
Sadly "Savage" is my least favorite title track from aespa. They already half lost me with "Next Level" but this sealed the deal. Not because of the switch ups, I usually love switch ups. The songs just didn't work for me personally (and I never was a fan of their old "virtual avatar" concept). Though I came back later in 2022 thx to "Girls". Their 2023 line up was even better. Aespa became "Best Female Group of 2023" for me because of their amazing releases and now I'm fully on board. On a side note: Winter from aespa was on Leemujin Service. If you wanna experience her vocals (and personality) on her own in a stripped down purely acoustic live setting (not unlike to Rose's Sea Of Hope Performances) and learn a bit about Winter along the way, this episode of Leemujin Service (EP72) is really worth reacting to. Goes in general for the whole show, but especially this one, which became one of my favorites (and made me a huge fan of Winter).

We look forward to hearing more from them to see if that happens for us also.
Please can you react to Drama by AESPA!!!!
SM music is top tier!
❤️🔥
My peronaly fav voise of aespa is karina

aespa fans are going to come after me, but this is indicative of my opinion that this group would be more popular right now if their company hadn't been obsessed with being "different" and "unique". These girls are very talented, but the AI concept and the experimentalism actually put a lot of people off. It seems like their popularity is growing faster now that they've started relying more on the talent of the group and less on gimmickry. Some fans really like the AI and lore, but it just doesn't have as wide an appeal as the company seems to have thought it would. That doesn't mean that these early songs were, in any way, bad, just that it kind of overshadowed the very real talent that this group has.
That makes sense. There certainly can be negative results from stepping too far outside the box.
real
Nah for me was the opposite, i really loved this AI/sci-fi concept (the visuals and the music) but then they changed the whole concept for that "better things to do" comeback and i don't like it, i find it boring and generic but i get your point, most people would find the new concepts more enjoyable
They already gained a huge fandom with their concept and it seems the majority won't be happy if they just become generic like many other groups.
Not to mention even the girls were glad to put it past them 😂
