I guess it's your first time hearing this song But they've been actually singing this song for quite years every end of their concert. Should watch it.
they really did a good job in choosing the setlists for each artists to be perform at which parts.they didn't make it like awards show that the seniors will perform last,they did mixed it so all stans from each groups/artists cant leace their screen just to watch their biases bcs not only we don't know when will our biases performing again and ofc bcs the show was so good and too good to be free hahahaha
SM is the best black hole that existed. I was supposed to only stan Girls' Generation. Now, I'm loving all the groups and soloists of this family. I'm a proud SM STAN! ✨
“Hope” is a song that they always sing at the end of every SMTOWN concerts... and yeah it’s a very meaningful song same goes to Dear My Family. This is one of 2 songs sing by all SM artists that always bring me to tears 😭😭😭
@@JeffAvenue yes they always sing this song in every SMTOWN concert and this song actually sung by H.O.T which is Kangta former group. So it’s really meaningful to all of them.
@@fardinfairuz yea true!!! And now I miss how they always sing this in every SMTOWn concert back then. And also their interaction with each other just precious 😭😭😭
This song is an SMTOWN concert staple with ‘Dear My Family’. The producer is Kangta who sings after Changmin’s high note. He debuted in SM’s first kpop boy group H.O.T. in ‘96 and wrote the song for his group in ‘98. He’s still with SM and is actually on the board of directors just like BoA (another kpop legend). If you ever get to look up the lyrics it’s a really wholesome song with beautiful lyrics.
@@luckynurwidayanti8299 not sure but I am not pertaining with the rankings of different entertainment. What I mean with that is sometimes, SM don't treat their artists well...
I always loved that SM artists perform this song as a concert ending song. It’s an H.O.T song, and H.O.T was the first ever Kpop Idol group. And I love that they brought Kangta in @4:31 right before the final chorus since he’s a member of H.O.T and one of the OG Kpop Idols. It’s weird to think that, had SM not took the risk , built a the "formula and created H.O.T, we may not have Kpop the way we do today.
"Hope" is a song from the first group of boys that SM had, called H.O.T. They were one of the first groups that founded the foundations of kpop as it is known today, in addition to the song conveying a beautiful message. Kangta is the only member of the group that is still in the company as a soloist, who comes out at minute 4.30. It is one of the 2 songs that are sung as a group by all the artists of the company at the end of each SM Family concert. it's very moving and a very special moment where the artists really show themselves as family. P/d: This is a translation done by google since I speak Spanish and I can understand it in English, speak it a little and write it almost nothing. sorry but I hope it is understood.
Fun fact: This is the song “Hope” by SM (and Kpop’s) first ever idol group H.O.T. It has been the ending song for SM TOWN concerts for the past 10 years. SM has done other songs for all their artists, such as “Dear My Family,” and even old winter and summer albums back in the day. And yes SM FAMILY is the best.. Thank you for your reaction Jeff Proud SM stan here🥺❤️
I honestly love how they have artists from all the generations of kpop (1st-4th gen) in this, i think that makes it even more special!! edit: i also love how they have a member from sm's first ever group and their latest group in here, that's just so cool.
Someone mentioned it somewhere, now let me remind you. SM is a family and the idea of a concert together does not surprise anyone, on the contrary, everyone is happy to see them together, not like other labels.
You should see (or maybe even react to) SM’s official performance of “Dear My Family” which was performed back in 2016. This was before AESPA and some of NCT debuted so they aren’t in that video. This was also before Jonghyun’s passing so he’s also in there. They released the video a few days after his passing with a dedication at the end. It’s honestly such a heartwarming song and perfectly encompasses what it means to be a part of a family, even if you aren’t related to one another.
"Hope" is the song that they perform at the end of every SMTown concert, it's SM's signature song -- it's not really a Christmas song. It's usually one of the most fun stages because we get a lot of unscripted interaction between the groups and the members and you get to see exactly how much of a family the members of SM really are. This song is usually performed just like this, but live, where you get all of SM's artists singing together as they wander around the stage at the end of the concert. "Hope" was wrote by Kangta, the main vocalist of H.O.T., way back in the the 1990s when H.O.T. was active and it was originally sung by H.O.T. It has since been adopted by SM as a sort of anthem that represents SMTown now. Kangta is a founding member of the Kpop industry and he is now a solo artist, actor, vocal coach, etc., as well as a member of SM's board of directors, along with BoA. SM usually holds an SMTown concert every year. SMTown concerts are extra fun because it's a great way to see all of SM's groups and artists all at one concert. Normally each group will perform 2 or 3 of their most iconic or newest songs, etc. and then we also get unique collaboration performances with members from different groups. SMTown collaboration performances are often performances that you will never see anywhere else, so it makes for an extra fun element to these concerts. SMTown concerts are also often part of a tour, so they also perform all over the world giving fans a chance to see SM artists traveling together. However, this year it was a little different because of social distancing and the fact that they were unable to actually perform live. Unfortunately, we didn't have any interaction between groups. I missed that part of this performance and the ending moment in the concert the most. I love the end of SMTown concerts because we usually get to see everyone just playing around and having fun together. Normally they would be wearing an SMTown T-shirt at the end of the concert that was designed as this year's concert T-shirt, but I guess SM decided not to create a T-shirt this year, and instead went with all white shirts. SMTown concerts are like the history of Kpop all in one concert, from Kangta who was part of the very first Kpop Idol boy group H.O.T. to aespa who is SM's first 4th gen group -- Almost 25 years of Kpop is represented in this video.
Kangta actually wrote this song when he was 17 (Edit: 24 years ago) back when he was in H.O.T. (SM’a first boy group). And now he’s a director at SM along with Boa (who also wasn’t present for the concert). And I totally agree with you, it’s so nice seeing the different generations of groups/artists performing together. It’s actually the only instance I know of where all 4 generation of kpop artists stand together on one “stage”. It’s amazing how H.O.T./Kangta were the first group SM debuted and now all of their artists are performing their song. Yes, Shinee, Girls’ Generation, F(x), and EXO were not here for the concert, mainly because they were inactive for the year. But SM stans are hoping for an EXO comeback as well as rigorously preparing for Shinee’s comeback next month. There’s a possibility for an SNSD comeback but the chances are low since the members are focusing on their solo careers right now. And there’s a very little chance of a F(x) comeback now that the members have left SM.
Actually Mark's rap line was sang by SHINEE's Minho before then passed it to EXO's Chanyeol and now Mark, it's like that part was passed down to sm's great rappers it's just so fascinating
I wish you can watch more TVXQ, like their recent ones and even the old ones. They're like the role models for some NCT members and other idols in the industry. I think you can start with U-know's comeback this January 18th. You'll enjoy their music and CHOREOGRAPHY i promise you 😭❤️
I hope you can check out more SM artists they’re all well rounded and have some of the most iconic artists in the industry Like Taeyeon and BoA and TVXQ :,) Thank you for the video!
4:03 this part is actually Kangta's part and nobody can't replace him, since H.O.T, SM Town 1st concert until SM Town last concert a while ago, but this time he gave his special part for Taemin. I watched this concert with all my friends, actually since the first concert tho at first we saw Yunho, Eunhyuk, Shindong for the rap part, and then Minho, Hyoyeon, Amber, and now Mark Lee, Jeno, Irene, Karina. And then we cried when we realized we grew up with SM, SM rlly feels like family for us.
This is very special for Red Velvet stans because this is the first event that Wendy has ever performed at after her accident. And now she’ll be releasing her first solo album on April 5 and I hope you react to that too.
Come to think of it.. I don't quite remember how I went thru those 4 hours watching from my hospital bed.. LoL. I was admitted on new year's eve, and all i can remember is that I can not miss SM Town..LoL.. But it surey made my day!!
sm artist is family not just senior and junior relationship there's more than performing its friendship and family they're all close to each other only sm can do that♥️♥️
Being an sm stan for 10 years the live concert was the LONGEST 3 hours of my life 😭😭 There's literally NO resting like I keep screaming whenever another group comes out im adhjajdjahs
u have to watch their stage of this very song at SMTOWN IN OSAKA 2018, all their smtown concerts just show how of a big family they are, so many interactions, so much love and friendship and that one is one of my favourite performances of Hope
SMTOWN have been doing concert worldwide since 2008 : ) I remember back in 2011 when they had SMtown world concert in New York, Jessica and Sulli were the ones singing Seulgi and Wendy's part in the mv huhu
smtown concerts are the best ive been to one before and the artists are so talented and so stable. hoping they'll do more smtown concerts when this pandemic is over
SO HAPPY AND LUCKY THAT THERE ARE THEM IN THIS WORLD... I feel their close sense of kinship. I don't know if I'm the only one who's been so touched by them... hopefully in the future only happy news that they and we all get!!!
Hope - English Translation [SMTOWN; Original by H.O.T] I didn’t realize how precious you were Because you were always next to me Those precious people who were always by my side When I was tired and felt that I was alone I forgot about those who gave me strength From now on, even if you’re tired and exhausted Don’t give up and stand up Thinking of your tomorrow Whether you failed in business or in love Nothing can break you down You know that you’re not alone in this world Don’t sit down and be sad all the time Let’s all stand up together and reach our hands out Let’s all join our hands together and look at the sky Picture the world we will be making together in the sky It’s radiant and so beautiful Let’s all make it together With our joined hands Whoa whoa baby The world surrounded by the darkness Everyone who’s falling in that world Even if it’s blocking the faith And love from growing in our minds There is a solid courage that we can start over We know we can stand up again Let’s all wipe away our tears and greet the lighting hope And draw everyone’s happy smile When we look around It hurts me so much to see The world full of hatred and pain The hatred that hurts each other let’s all open our minds just a bit and share our love When we show our love to each other little by little And grow our faith towards each other there is no cause to be angry Or be fighting with each other There is our hope we’ve been dreaming of We can see the beautiful world We are standing here and saying “We are H.O.T./SMTOWN Let’s party” Let’s all join our hands together and look at the sky Picture the world we will be making together in the sky It’s radiant and so beautiful Let’s all make it together With our joined hands Whoa whoa baby I want to become The hope to light up your open future Lift your head up And face the radiant light Let’s all join our hands together and look at the sky Picture the world we will be making together in the sky It’s radiant and so beautiful Let’s all make it together With our joined hands Everyone open your eyes, look at the world in front of you We did it with our joined hands There is no fear, there is no more sadness either Let’s all have a party of happiness With all our minds here KangTa actually wrote this song when he was 17, and it became an H.O.T single in 1998. This is the ending song of every SMTOWN concert when the entire family goes on stage together. It's both sad and happy watching the lineup all the way from the first generation SM artists and their iconic SMTOWN IDs to when these concerts started and having to see the owner of the lines transform and grow throughout the years. SM Family jjang❣
I love all of the Kangta comments here! Well-earned since he wrote this song and he's very proud of it (as he should be! It's a beautiful song!) H.O.T even sang this as their ending song when they did their reunion performance
I love how sm always ends their sm town concerts with this song haha Also, they have these concerts every year. Sometimes even twice a year. I think they had Japan sm town and Chile the same year. The Japan one is on here. It’s like 3 hours long, maybe more.
I remember when I watched SMTown concert Hope and Dear Family was the most memorable part. Hope makes me feel I am part of SM Family. In my 13 years stanning SM artist Hope always makes me.emotional. SM may not be the perfect company but admit it they give us the artist who's not only visually perfect but talented and kind heart artist that we love the most.
This song woke my sleeping heart for the whole SM Artists. I'm a Reveluv and I don't know the other groups of SM. Thanks to this concert, it opened my heart for the other SM family members 💕
This song is an original of H.O.T wherein Kangta was a member. They sing this song every ending of the smtown concert. The k-idols who sing on every part differs everytime ☺️
I think that since you're already on the SM blackhole lol, you should react to the older generations like TVXQ who are the legends of kpop, or SNSD the queens of kpop, but still really happy you enjoy SM groups so much as a fellow SM trash 😂😂
you should check dear my family as well it's another sm anthem just like hope and its sung by all sm artists and the "mv" for this song is also a tribute for jonghyun
Fun fact this song is made by Kangta (H.O.T) during Korean Financial Crisis which affect a lot of people since many people lose their job and failed their bussiness and this song is made to give them hope. And its kinda fitting for this concert especially during COVID and since this concert is for free, they want to give hope to all people affected by COVID.
I remember the original MV of Hope featuring cancer patients. Kangta wrote such a beautiful song and I love how this has always been SMTown's ending song. I miss them singing this live. Also, I waited for KangTa to show up because I can't process 'Hope' without KangTa. LOL
Dear Jeff, this song is very meaningful, not only for SM artist but for all us. 2020 is nightmare and hard for all of us. This is the song that give a little light or hope for us to stay alive through the upcoming year. Hope (Light) You were always with, so I didn't know that you were precious those precious people who were always by my side when sometimes I was tired and felt alone they always gave my strength but I lived while forgetting those people Now when you have a difficult time,when you are tired,instead of collapsing get up while thinking of your tomorrow you failed at business, you failed at love nothing can ruin you you know that you are not alone in this world don't sit down, don't be sad, you know you shouldn't be all of who know,let's stand up reach out your hands , let's do this all together Let's all hold hands and look at the sky let's draw on the sky,the world we made together it's eye-blinding isn't it? it's so beautiful with our hands holding let's make it together The world is wrapped in darkness the image of everyone who's falling in there even if it blocks and doesn't let grow the trust and love in our heart a courage that we can start again you know that you can get up after wiping the tears,let's face the light standing tall, let's draw our happy smile Looking around us, it's so heartbreaking the world is filled with hate and pain that feeling of hating each other let's open our heart a little let's share a bit of love When we show love to each other when we grow to trust each other there won't be a reason to fight or feel bad neither to frown and quarrel there is the blinding light we dream of here is seen the beautiful world we stand here and talk like this we are H.O.T let's party! Let's all hold hands and look at the sky let's draw on the sky,the world we made together it's eye-blinding isn't it? it's so beautiful with our hands holding let's make it together I want to become the light that shines brightly and opens your days now lift your head, look at the blinding light Let's all hold hands and look at the sky let's draw on the sky,the world we made together it's eye-blinding isn't it? it's so beautiful with our hands holding let's make it together Let's all open our eyes, let's look the world in front of our eyes we did it when holding our hands tightly there is no fear, now there is no sadness let's gather our feelings, let's open the party of happiness
The first time I listened to the song I was about cry. And the moment I saw Kangta 4:31 I started crying so much. I was expecting him to appear and it was so nice that we could hear his voice. I hope more people could know him and fell the same emotion I felt when I saw him appearing.
I know this was months ago, so I don't know if anyone answered you, but yes "ELF" is Super Junior's fandom name. It stands for Ever-Lasting Friends. :)
i didn't even realize i was watching the concert for 4 hours 🤣🤣 definitely worth it bc all the nct performances were spread all throughout and ofc sm artists are just amazing in general!!
SM Town does this the best. 💖 i miss the 2nd gen days... the feeling you get when your faves sing together 💖💖💖 there’s Dear My Family before. It’s also so good, watch it!! :)
Hope is a song by H.O.T Kangta was one of the original members that is still in SM and active and this song has been sung by SMTown family after end of all their SMTown concerts. It's sad that they aren't complete in this one SM should have at least included all their artists but still it was an amazing MV H.O.T is a first gen group under SM ent and is an amazing old school group but 4 out of 5 members have left only kangta is left but he is still active ever since then rarely seen but still there he is always seen in SMTown Concerts
Jeff, you should check SMTOWN Only Love; Snow Dream; Hotmail; Red Sun; Let's go on a trip etc. They are all SMTOWN songs from different year. SM used to release collaboration song from all their artists once a year, sometimes twice a year until 2007 (if I remember correctly).
this song not only special for sm artist fans because of how this song always be the closing for smtown or dear my family OR i am. this song also special for H.O.T fans, this song is originally by H.O.T, one of the member is kangta, the one who sing after the high note, the most senior active artist in sm (correct me if i’m wrong ☺️)
Hope is such a meaningful song, I really love it. SM is such a big family. When I started discovering KPOP with SHINee, I never thought one day I would just be simply a SM artist stan, knowing all of their artists and knowing when they are dropping something new. Even if before most of them were older or my age or younger but still close to my age (the youngest at that time were Krystal and Sulli), now with NCT and aespa mostly, they are all so young but I still really love all of them. I also can't wait to see what aespa has in store for us. They are so promising!
SMW really is my favorite label. A lot of people are talking shit by saying it's the worst label but there is not a good company in kpop. Of course sometimes they don't treat their artists properly and they suck at doing promotion but not every family is great, right? However, you can't deny they have great artists with passion and devotion. And that's what I like about this house. I want to follow every generation for a long time.
Being SM stan since 2010, their new concept in every group still amaze me. Their music also got me goosebumps. They don't lie if they told us that every sm group has the high position in every era. Their song never gonna boring after years. H.O.T We are the future S.E.S I'm your girl M.I.L.K Come to me TVXQ Hug Super Junior Sorry sorry Girls Generation Gee SHINee Ring ding dong f(x) 4 walls EXO Growl Red Velvet Red flavor NCT BOSS (I would it was. Cause the impact was really big for NCT. B-but NCT are still growing). aespa Black mamba
hope is a very fits the situation we are right now in the world. the song was wrote before the korean 97 economic crise, so they needed a little hope. the lyrics goes with the situation and also, they always perfom this song at the end of smtown concert. can you also react to other smtown performance, 'Dear my Family'? is a really special song, they sing about how strong their bond are, and you can see jonghyun one more time.
the only reaction video that i need 🤧 ps. i love that were having different combination of lead singers for this song every concert pps. uknow and max are getting hotter how is that possible
Lots of ppl down here already commented the origin of the song so im just requesting you to react for live performance for Hope. This song always been the ending song at every smtown concert. And also dear my family live mv.

Please react to VICTON - what I said
I don't even know how I managed to watch all 4 hours of the sm town concrt

@Santiago Molina same I don’t know how I lasted through the dj part without falling asleep
they really did a good job in choosing the setlists for each artists to be perform at which parts.they didn't make it like awards show that the seniors will perform last,they did mixed it so all stans from each groups/artists cant leace their screen just to watch their biases bcs not only we don't know when will our biases performing again and ofc bcs the show was so good and too good to be free hahahaha
Hahhaha
To brazilians it was from 1Am at 4:30 Am

I agree, love seeing them all "together"! BTW, you meant 24 years ago, not 34 :)
@@Pos1t1veThinking Yes, I meant 24 lol. Thanks
"Hope" and "Dear My Family" are every SM stans' national anthem.
Actually Mark's rap line was sang by SHINEE's Minho before then passed it to EXO's Chanyeol and now Mark, it's like that part was passed down to sm's great rappers it's just so fascinating
"DEAR MY FAMILY" i know you're gonna cry to that..Dear My Family and Hope is like an SMTOWN anthem
4:31 I literally cried when I realized Kangta was the center of the grid. That man is a dang legend together with H.O.T.
yes!! E.L.F stands for ever lasting friends and it’s super juniors fanbase name
💙💙
I wish you can watch more TVXQ, like their recent ones and even the old ones. They're like the role models for some NCT members and other idols in the industry. I think you can start with U-know's comeback this January 18th. You'll enjoy their music and CHOREOGRAPHY i promise you 😭❤️
my wish! specially some ballad songs when they were still 5 members (they will always be 5 in my heart of cors 🤧😂)
"be kind,be humble and be the love" - SMTOWN
I know it's too late but can you react to SMTOWN "Dear my family"? I just need someone who can cry with me haha
Oh goodness... Here, I'll cry with you... 😭
yes please :"
@@ed208 I'm crying over the person who always do the opening of that song😭
yass pleasee
Yes please
I hope you can check out more SM artists they’re all well rounded and have some of the most iconic artists in the industry Like Taeyeon and BoA and TVXQ :,) Thank you for the video!
It is beautiful how this song is maintained over the years. I still remember the 2012 version.
4:03 this part is actually Kangta's part and nobody can't replace him, since H.O.T, SM Town 1st concert until SM Town last concert a while ago, but this time he gave his special part for Taemin. I watched this concert with all my friends, actually since the first concert tho at first we saw Yunho, Eunhyuk, Shindong for the rap part, and then Minho, Hyoyeon, Amber, and now Mark Lee, Jeno, Irene, Karina. And then we cried when we realized we grew up with SM, SM rlly feels like family for us.
You should also react of their older Hope and Dear MY Family! It's a trademark of every SMTOWN Concert!
This is very special for Red Velvet stans because this is the first event that Wendy has ever performed at after her accident. And now she’ll be releasing her first solo album on April 5 and I hope you react to that too.
You should react to "Dear my Family" by SMTOWN, it's such a beautiful song. You can clearly hear how good SM artist voice through that song
You should watch Dear My family. That's a vocal perfection

Come to think of it.. I don't quite remember how I went thru those 4 hours watching from my hospital bed.. LoL. I was admitted on new year's eve, and all i can remember is that I can not miss SM Town..LoL.. But it surey made my day!!
I was hooked since Super Junior and stay loyal until now, no regrets 😭💜
SM's style and music suit my taste 👌
SMTown fam ftw!!!
sm artist is family not just senior and junior relationship there's more than performing its friendship and family they're all close to each other only sm can do that♥️♥️
"NCT is a group with most beautiful smiles" knetz 😌
Where u find about this comment
@@smloverme1512 dont remember where it was exactly.. as i could recall from SMTOWN beyond live -HOPE- vcr discussion
dont know bout you but the sm energy is something to live for uwu
Being an sm stan for 10 years the live concert was the LONGEST 3 hours of my life 😭😭 There's literally NO resting like I keep screaming whenever another group comes out im adhjajdjahs
i miss smtown singing hope together at their concert :’)
u have to watch their stage of this very song at SMTOWN IN OSAKA 2018, all their smtown concerts just show how of a big family they are, so many interactions, so much love and friendship and that one is one of my favourite performances of Hope
SMTOWN have been doing concert worldwide since 2008 : ) I remember back in 2011 when they had SMtown world concert in New York, Jessica and Sulli were the ones singing Seulgi and Wendy's part in the mv huhu
smtown concerts are the best ive been to one before and the artists are so talented and so stable. hoping they'll do more smtown concerts when this pandemic is over
Omg I've never been this early in watching a video on UA-cam 🤣 Thanks for reacting to this Jeff!
SO HAPPY AND LUCKY THAT THERE ARE THEM IN THIS WORLD... I feel their close sense of kinship. I don't know if I'm the only one who's been so touched by them... hopefully in the future only happy news that they and we all get!!!
Hope - English Translation [SMTOWN; Original by H.O.T]
I didn’t realize how precious you were
Because you were always next to me
Those precious people who were always by my side
When I was tired and felt that I was alone
I forgot about those who gave me strength
From now on, even if you’re tired and exhausted
Don’t give up and stand up
Thinking of your tomorrow
Whether you failed in business or in love
Nothing can break you down
You know that you’re not alone in this world
Don’t sit down and be sad all the time
Let’s all stand up together and reach our hands out
Let’s all join our hands together and look at the sky
Picture the world we will be making together in the sky
It’s radiant and so beautiful
Let’s all make it together
With our joined hands
Whoa whoa baby
The world surrounded by the darkness
Everyone who’s falling in that world
Even if it’s blocking the faith
And love from growing in our minds
There is a solid courage that we can start over
We know we can stand up again
Let’s all wipe away our tears and greet the lighting hope
And draw everyone’s happy smile
When we look around
It hurts me so much to see
The world full of hatred and pain
The hatred that hurts each other
let’s all open our minds just a bit and share our love
When we show our love to each other little by little
And grow our faith towards each other
there is no cause to be angry
Or be fighting with each other
There is our hope we’ve been dreaming of
We can see the beautiful world
We are standing here and saying
“We are H.O.T./SMTOWN Let’s party”
Let’s all join our hands together and look at the sky
Picture the world we will be making together in the sky
It’s radiant and so beautiful
Let’s all make it together
With our joined hands
Whoa whoa baby
I want to become
The hope to light up your open future
Lift your head up
And face the radiant light
Let’s all join our hands together and look at the sky
Picture the world we will be making together in the sky
It’s radiant and so beautiful
Let’s all make it together
With our joined hands
Everyone open your eyes, look at the world in front of you
We did it with our joined hands
There is no fear, there is no more sadness either
Let’s all have a party of happiness
With all our minds here
KangTa actually wrote this song when he was 17, and it became an H.O.T single in 1998. This is the ending song of every SMTOWN concert when the entire family goes on stage together. It's both sad and happy watching the lineup all the way from the first generation SM artists and their iconic SMTOWN IDs to when these concerts started and having to see the owner of the lines transform and grow throughout the years. SM Family jjang❣
I love all of the Kangta comments here! Well-earned since he wrote this song and he's very proud of it (as he should be! It's a beautiful song!) H.O.T even sang this as their ending song when they did their reunion performance
I love how sm always ends their sm town concerts with this song haha
Also, they have these concerts every year. Sometimes even twice a year. I think they had Japan sm town and Chile the same year. The Japan one is on here. It’s like 3 hours long, maybe more.
I remember when I watched SMTown concert Hope and Dear Family was the most memorable part. Hope makes me feel I am part of SM Family. In my 13 years stanning SM artist Hope always makes me.emotional. SM may not be the perfect company but admit it they give us the artist who's not only visually perfect but talented and kind heart artist that we love the most.
This song woke my sleeping heart for the whole SM Artists. I'm a Reveluv and I don't know the other groups of SM. Thanks to this concert, it opened my heart for the other SM family members 💕
I love this song. This song represents how much of a family SM artists are. 💗
This song is an original of H.O.T wherein Kangta was a member. They sing this song every ending of the smtown concert. The k-idols who sing on every part differs everytime ☺️
I remember it was like two in the morning and this song came on and I just started crying
I love that this song never gets old and that Kangta sings at the end as his group were the originals singers(H.O.T if u guys never heard).
I think that since you're already on the SM blackhole lol, you should react to the older generations like TVXQ who are the legends of kpop, or SNSD the queens of kpop, but still really happy you enjoy SM groups so much as a fellow SM trash 😂😂
you should check dear my family as well it's another sm anthem just like hope and its sung by all sm artists and the "mv" for this song is also a tribute for jonghyun
Fun fact this song is made by Kangta (H.O.T) during Korean Financial Crisis which affect a lot of people since many people lose their job and failed their bussiness and this song is made to give them hope. And its kinda fitting for this concert especially during COVID and since this concert is for free, they want to give hope to all people affected by COVID.
this MV really gives me goosebumps even though they're not complete. THE VOCAAALLLSS Y'ALL.
I remember the original MV of Hope featuring cancer patients. Kangta wrote such a beautiful song and I love how this has always been SMTown's ending song. I miss them singing this live. Also, I waited for KangTa to show up because I can't process 'Hope' without KangTa. LOL
Dear Jeff, this song is very meaningful, not only for SM artist but for all us. 2020 is nightmare and hard for all of us. This is the song that give a little light or hope for us to stay alive through the upcoming year.
Hope (Light)
You were always with, so I didn't know that you were precious
those precious people who were always by my side
when sometimes I was tired and felt alone
they always gave my strength
but I lived while forgetting those people
Now when you have a difficult time,when you are tired,instead of collapsing
get up while thinking of your tomorrow
you failed at business, you failed at love
nothing can ruin you
you know that you are not alone in this world
don't sit down, don't be sad, you know you shouldn't be
all of who know,let's stand up
reach out your hands , let's do this all together
Let's all hold hands and look at the sky
let's draw on the sky,the world we made together
it's eye-blinding isn't it? it's so beautiful
with our hands holding let's make it together
The world is wrapped in darkness
the image of everyone who's falling in there
even if it blocks and doesn't let grow
the trust and love in our heart
a courage that we can start again
you know that you can get up
after wiping the tears,let's face the light
standing tall, let's draw our happy smile
Looking around us, it's so heartbreaking
the world is filled with hate and pain
that feeling of hating each other
let's open our heart a little
let's share a bit of love
When we show love to each other
when we grow to trust each other
there won't be a reason to fight or feel bad
neither to frown and quarrel
there is the blinding light we dream of
here is seen the beautiful world
we stand here and talk like this
we are H.O.T let's party!
Let's all hold hands and look at the sky
let's draw on the sky,the world we made together
it's eye-blinding isn't it? it's so beautiful
with our hands holding let's make it together
I want to become the light that shines brightly
and opens your days
now lift your head, look at the blinding light
Let's all hold hands and look at the sky
let's draw on the sky,the world we made together
it's eye-blinding isn't it? it's so beautiful
with our hands holding let's make it together
Let's all open our eyes, let's look the world in front of our eyes
we did it when holding our hands tightly
there is no fear, now there is no sadness
let's gather our feelings, let's open the party of happiness
SM artists are legit world class performers.
The moment I finished the SMTown live concert that lasts 4 hours made me realized how much of a SMTown stan I am.
Watching SMTown Beyond live make me realise how precious it is to be able to watch them perform in person..
The first time I listened to the song I was about cry. And the moment I saw Kangta 4:31 I started crying so much. I was expecting him to appear and it was so nice that we could hear his voice. I hope more people could know him and fell the same emotion I felt when I saw him appearing.
I know this was months ago, so I don't know if anyone answered you, but yes "ELF" is Super Junior's fandom name. It stands for Ever-Lasting Friends. :)
i didn't even realize i was watching the concert for 4 hours 🤣🤣 definitely worth it bc all the nct performances were spread all throughout and ofc sm artists are just amazing in general!!
Jeff is a lowkey SM Stan.. I mean, who wouldn't love all SM artists right?
SM Town does this the best. 💖 i miss the 2nd gen days... the feeling you get when your faves sing together 💖💖💖 there’s Dear My Family before. It’s also so good, watch it!! :)
Hope is a song by H.O.T Kangta was one of the original members that is still in SM and active and this song has been sung by SMTown family after end of all their SMTown concerts. It's sad that they aren't complete in this one SM should have at least included all their artists but still it was an amazing MV
H.O.T is a first gen group under SM ent and is an amazing old school group but 4 out of 5 members have left only kangta is left but he is still active ever since then rarely seen but still there he is always seen in SMTown Concerts
Super Junior fandom name is E.L.F meaning is EVER LASTING FRIENDS!! 💙💙💙 i also want to see them also in SMTOWN CONCERT SOOOOONNNNN!! 💚💚💚
Jeff, you should check SMTOWN Only Love; Snow Dream; Hotmail; Red Sun; Let's go on a trip etc. They are all SMTOWN songs from different year. SM used to release collaboration song from all their artists once a year, sometimes twice a year until 2007 (if I remember correctly).
Well yes ELF is super junior fandom and it stand for ever lasting friend
this song not only special for sm artist fans because of how this song always be the closing for smtown or dear my family OR i am. this song also special for H.O.T fans, this song is originally by H.O.T, one of the member is kangta, the one who sing after the high note, the most senior active artist in sm
(correct me if i’m wrong ☺️)
I always look forward for this ending song every sm concert, especially their interactions on stages.
They sang this at all Smtowm concert at the end..if there are no Covid we can see them together on stage ㅠㅠ
You should watch the old videos of Hope in physical SM concert. It is amazing!
SM family singing Hope and My dear family really makes me cry.
Hope is such a meaningful song, I really love it.
SM is such a big family. When I started discovering KPOP with SHINee, I never thought one day I would just be simply a SM artist stan, knowing all of their artists and knowing when they are dropping something new. Even if before most of them were older or my age or younger but still close to my age (the youngest at that time were Krystal and Sulli), now with NCT and aespa mostly, they are all so young but I still really love all of them.
I also can't wait to see what aespa has in store for us. They are so promising!
SMW really is my favorite label. A lot of people are talking shit by saying it's the worst label but there is not a good company in kpop. Of course sometimes they don't treat their artists properly and they suck at doing promotion but not every family is great, right? However, you can't deny they have great artists with passion and devotion. And that's what I like about this house. I want to follow every generation for a long time.
Being SM stan since 2010, their new concept in every group still amaze me. Their music also got me goosebumps. They don't lie if they told us that every sm group has the high position in every era.
Their song never gonna boring after years.
H.O.T We are the future

This song has very meaningful lyrics, I always cry when I hear this song :')
It's ALWAYS beautiful and peaceful everytime they sing this song together at the end of the concert😭
jefff you should react to ten and shownu’s dance collab to popstar!!! they are insaneeee esp ten!!
He already reacted to it on his patreon
u have to watch their smtown stage Dear My Family, its such a beautiful stage and it was uploaded as a tribute to jonghyun
Woah, Jeff! the amount of content you're making for us! i can't thank you enough
Kangta wrote this song when he was very young and was H.O.T(1st gen)!!!
hope is a very fits the situation we are right now in the world. the song was wrote before the korean 97 economic crise, so they needed a little hope. the lyrics goes with the situation and also, they always perfom this song at the end of smtown concert. can you also react to other smtown performance, 'Dear my Family'? is a really special song, they sing about how strong their bond are, and you can see jonghyun one more time.
Yes, ELF (EverLasting Friend) is Super Junior's fandom name. ♡
LMAOOO WE HAD THE SAME REACTION AT THE KARINA AND SHINDONG RAP DUET
