Been a while since we've done some Stray Kids! Click here for my uncut reaction (57 minutes) + exclusive Stray Kids reactions: www.patreon.com/maxbeaumont
Sometimes people really underestimate just how much Hyunjin cares about Stray Kids. They see him go off and do "his own fashion thing", or they see him talk about being more introverted and liking his space, and they forget that he would die for his members without question. He is so proud to be part of the group, he's even said that his name doesn't sound right without "Stray Kids" in front of it because being part of SKZ is a huge part of who he is. There's also a clip I love where he's talking to Seungmin and telling him how much he respects him, Seungmin says "I had no idea you thought so highly of me", and Hyunjin replies "What do you even know..." He is fiercely loyal and he has so much love to give - and the best part is that he gives it freely, and he is never embarrassed or ashamed of his emotions. I really respect him and how emotionally intelligent and mature he is.
I’ve recently realized that whenever you describe any of these guys I tell myself ‘I wish I could be exactly like Han, Felix, Changbin etc. and I want to be a good listener, talker, I feel the need to be funnier and more intelligent but also authentic… and it makes me feel almost envious? of them. But in reality I think I just hope that my friends think I’m a good person and a good friend and I hope that they can talk about me the same way Stray kids talk about each other🎉
Hyunjin is a poster child INFP. Fiercely loyal to what he considers to be right/real/important, highly emotionally intelligent/grounded, extremely artistic, zero ability to bullshit about what he feels❤. Wish there had been more felix in this compilation, as the things he has expressed about interacting with people and making them comfortable have greatly affected me. You are right, though, that all of them are extremely close and emotionally intelligent/mature. Han said once that at first, the members were part of a team, but now they have a team within them. What they have together is what makes them magical and so very inspiring. Their sum is greater than their parts, and they each know and treasure that fact. Ty for another SKZ reaction ❤.
I felt the same when I started getting into BTS. And now again with Stray Kids. The best thing for me was that unconsciously I started being more compassionate around the people I loved. It felt really.. strange. But especially good. I am grateful for that! ♥
Han has said himself that since he grew up kinda isolated from others while he was in Malaysia, with no friends or anything, his social skills were kinda stunted in that way. He said that when he was a younger teen he was filled with so much anger and emotion and it took him awhile to really learn how to handle it, and he was greatly helped by the members. It’s also why he’s not really friends with anyone outside of the group
Hyunjin is the easiest SKZ member to misunderstand. He looks like he's the coldest mf but he's actually one of the most empathetic. He's understandably guarded now coz while he's one of the most admired and loved, he's at the same the most targeted idol. Oh yeah, he's pretty smart. He's not called Hyungenius by the rest of the kids for nothing.
this!!! all the cyber bullying he goes through..i feel like people r only seeing the surface and not actually understanding him at all..some people really think coz he looks so good, hot, visually appealing, he is narcissistic like the stereotype of pretty people being narcissistic. And i hate people think like that , stereotyping instead of actually observing and understanding!! i read a recent comment how someone just accused him of being narcissistic coz of his looks and said he ignores felix now and is always about his looks which absolute BS coz hyunjin doesn't ignore felix at all..that pissed me off... he is the most empathetic and sensitive out of all and most loyal!
Whoever invented 2kidsroom is a genius. This is the best kind of content, znd once again, I love your analysis. Having to grow up in such a tough environment made them so emotionally intelligent as you said, and it's definitely obvious how only a few groups are this close to each other. As for hyunjin, i admire the way he views life and other stuffs generally, hes a such a feeler type, and you can see how sensitive he is through his artistry.
I think you have finally cracked the hyunjin trick hahah. He's a deep one and I think his complexity can make him tone his response according to the environment which is why he can be closed off at times. But hearing you say he feels everything, I think that's exactly what I thought when I saw him perform and interact with fans for the first time. He's so in it, he's so deep in all his emotions that is visible to anyone watching, and I think that's one of stay's biggest blessing
15:04 Changbin and Hyunjin It later turned out that this interview took place during their big fight, and it was really important for Changbin to understand why they were fighting. Therefore, he took Hyunjin’s words seriously. After the interview they made peace. Thank you very much for your videos on Stray kids, it’s always very interesting to hear your opinion about them.
We often refer to Hyunjin, Lee Know and Han as Pabaracha; meaning they can act dumb, silly or goofy, especially when the three of them are together because they feed off of one another so well. Yet they often seem to be the most sensitive/vulnerable members. Our three expressive introverts. It's often easy to tell how they are feeling and we've seen them looking tired, or sad or frustrated. You can also see when they are worried about another member. Yet nothing is better than seeing them when they are happy, or laughing, or excited and their joy is a wonderful thing to see. It's not unusual to see them literally fall out with laughter when something funny suddenly happens. Sometimes they laugh so hard they even tumble onto the floor. 💙💙💙
your insight on han is always my fav. it might be because i’m biased (lol) something you said at 9:35 stood out to me because it reminded me of his own words on a livestream regarding his song ‘alien’ he said, “i auditioned for jyp and became a trainee. i felt a sense of belonging for the first time, so i was very happy, and i wanted to get along well, get along with friends and be happy. but i didn’t know how to deal with people, how to get along, i just approached people without knowing how. so those people i think had a hard time, and i lost everyone around me. that’s when i realized: i’m with people here, with many people, but i’m still lonely. i’m still alone. that’s how i felt.” every time i read that, i feel so much sympathy for him and the person he was at the time. i understand that everyone likes to make the ‘predebut han’ jokes but few take the time to see his side and how hard it must’ve been for him to adjust to that environment. he’s also talked about how he didn’t make many friends when he lived in malaysia because he didn’t speak english well and he was homeschooled. things like this make me believe he truly was just isolated and needed to find people who would break him out of his shell, and ones who’d understand what he was going through and feeling at such a young age. i’m glad that in his case, it was the stray kids members, and you can really see it in the way they talk about their fights. they seem to have been very understanding and i’m glad they could overcome those hurdles to become stronger. sorry if this is running on lol i am very passionate about han. i have a lot of love and respect for him as both an artist and a person. i think you hit the nail on the head with that one, though, so i wanted to comment.
Not long! You could write about Han any day, anytime and I for one would read it even though I know the details already! Always have time for Han and people's views on him. I think he is an incredible human (they all are, of course, but Han in particular had a unique set of circumstances that created that environment in/around him and wow, what creative expression came from it! 'Alien' probably my favourite "Han-pop" song, those lyrics 😪). It all feels very divinely planned that they came together as they did. They are all such beautiful people and Han is a huge inspiration in so many ways.
@@ozskzkizz thank you for your reply:) i agree with everything you said. i’m glad there’s other people who love han and all of the little things about him too. he’s such an interesting and complex and emotional person and i wish more people saw that. alien is also def a fav of mine. it makes me feel seen, as do most of his songs.
You are so right! And we don’t know how his family is thinking about him being an idol. I guess he had to overcome a lot of struggles. To please the parents is a first priority for many people. The first award for the song Miroh was such a milestone for him. He was soaked in tears! Like now he believed that his dream might become true. I have a soft spot in my heart for him, actually for all of them.
I'm being for real when I say Han and Hyunjin's discussion of how they used to fight and other discussions skz have had about communicating with it each other has saved some of my friendships on more than one occasion. After watching skz (especially Changbin) I took their methods of communication to heart and am much better at relationships now than i was before.
Thank you. it was very interesting and informative! It's funny that Hyunjin is involved in most conflicts, or he's just not afraid to bring it up for discussion. I really admire him. As Seungmin said, he has a fragile nature, but Hyunjin is a very complex person with a lot of contradictions inside. He has a kind and compassionate heart, you can see that if you read his chatting with Stay in the Bubble. He is very demanding of himself, in one vlive he said that he usually mad at himself, and not at other people. It's always interesting to watch him, I think his complex nature is reflected in his ability to switch, his duality is crazy.
Hyunjin and I have the same personality and I’m also a Pisces so I totally understand him. We’re reserved but outgoing around people we are comfortable with. And Hyunjin has high emotional intelligence. He can read the kind of vibe you give off and reacts to that. A mirror 🤍
Wow. I definitely relate to wanting to be more in tune with my emotions like Hyunjin. Watching him do something as simple as a TikTok dance is inspiring because he always approaches the things he loves to do with so much passion. His emotion is palpable through the screen because he allows himself to feel so deeply and express unabashedly. He's someone I admire as I'm striving to be vulnerable with myself too. :)
I love your videos "stray kids" they formed a very beautiful family and as for Han Jisung I think that his way of being and his teenage self owes a lot to how he lived his childhood. He was about 4 or 5 years old when he moved from Korea to Malaysia, which means that he went through school with a language and customs very different from Korea, as Han himself told us, he could not get used to the place. Therefore, he ended up receiving education at home, which means that he had no interaction with children his age, only with his parents and teachers at home, which is why he did not have emotional development according to his age. Then he went to Korea at the age of 14, after his exams he had the opportunity to join JYP where he was from 14 to 16 training in a very competitive place to be an idol where he had to live with people more or less of his own. age. Not having an emotional development like the others, I think he must have felt very out of place in an environment where everyone is a teenager with their own interests, while he was like a little child in a teenager's body. Many times Chan said that Han was very immature. Too small for this. I think Han tried his best to be mature, independent and self-sufficient
I remember when Jeongin said that Han Jisung didn't go out on holidays like Christmas, where everyone goes with their family or friends. Han was left alone in Jyp's dorms watching TV and sleeping. This makes me think that maybe he didn't feel a part of them. Some group within JYP, because of this, were very lonely and reserved, they did not open themselves to others, this can lead to many people not understanding them, seeing them in another way, almost unattainable, that is why they dedicated themselves to working and compete with him. Unlike the other guys who had friends outside the company, Han Jisung had no other escape from stress than staying to work, it must have been very lonely and difficult to be like that, but he wanted with all his heart to be able to create. music and tell him your feelings. Through them, he is a person who overcame that stage of his life in which other humans would have given up and returned home to cry. Han Jisung cried alone and surpassed himself in the pursuit of his dreams, making them come true, he is a great example of growth to follow
i can always pick out his songs (and they’re my favorites) because they all have this beautiful, childlike, completely open kind of love to them. his heart is so pure. ❤
thank you for reacting to this, Max :3 in one of the 2 Kids Rooms, Chan says that SKZ needs there to be a spark between Han and Hyunjin for the day to turn out good for the group, and I think that really shows what you basically already said: Han and Hyunjin have very strong personalities. Han can be and used to be even more very sensitive to being told what to do (it's ADHD, I'm telling you) and Hyunjin is everything you just said, especially the part about it all being too much sometimes when you feel EVERYTHING, but also his loyalty and will to express himself to not bottle up resentment and anger. I agree that it's probably out of trust for them to take it seriously and find a way to resolve it. Han didn't really know how to interact with people when he was younger, and pre-debut, they had the typical trainee rivalry and insecurity going on; but eventually, they really fell in sync, partly because they are each other's home now, but also because they have worked on their skills to resolve conflicts and really learn to understand each other. I feel what you mean about SKZ being a) so close and b) so emotionally intelligent, this is legit why SKZ has been the only kpop group of which I see myself as a proper fan. They feel like family to me, and it makes me happy to watch them grow and interact
I love Stray Kids. I love their communication style. I wish we all could communicate like this. They are an inspiration. Hyjunjin is one of my biases. I love how close they are. The fact that that they cuddle with each other and communicate like this is a good thing. I love this about them. In today's world, we need their kind of communication. But anyway, I adore Stray Kids.
One of the reasons I like SKZ is that they are competitive, yes, not in getting a more shining position among them but in contributing to the group or at least in not being the one dragging the group. They all know every SKZ member does his best to contribute more and take more burdens as a SKZ member to his group SKZ, other SKZ members and supporting staffs, and of course not in the least STAY. It seems all of them feel to do more and better to meet other SKZ members' efforts and passion. That's why they appreciate each other and try to lessen others' burdens as much as possible We can often see they become genuinely happy when a SKZ member did great instead of being jealous. And they always reach out to help when he feels he can have something to help They often give compliments to each other but not a vague compliment. If somebody really didn't do well, they don't give insincere one just to excape from that awkward and uncomfortable situation. They won't give a insincere compliment just because the other wants to hear it. Either they compliment some other thing he feels the other deserves or just comporting by saying it's okay That's why they really get happy when they got the compliments they wanted to hear or their efforts are recognized and appreciated by other SKZs. They know the other really thinks so and that's why he gives that specific compliment to them Very healthy and positive relationships, chemistry and group atmosphere especially when all in the group are hard working and driven and share the same goals and dreams, I think I think that's why all of them can keep improving even though some of them had slumps from time to time during these years Thanks for your another SKZ reaction. Always love to watch your observations and hearing your calm voice and happy of you sharing with us your professional insights and thoughts ❤
Max, thanks for always doing such great content, very reflective and introspective. Would love you to do an episode of Chan's room. I'd love your insight after seeing one of his Chan's episodes to see if you get another layer of his personality. Keep up the great work, this was a delight as always.
They have a good example from their seniors. I have noticed they look up to 2PM, which have a beautiful and strong brotherhood between them since their debut in 2008.
Han doesnt show alot of his wounded emotions to anyone. One thing ive noticed is that he isnt actually That confident with himself. He is always scared to fail or not be good enough. I think he always wears a mask and say im beautifull im confident im good enough to himself because other members actually tease him alot. Its a kind of back and forth thing. He cant be unsure of his looks and emotions because people are so used to him being confident and stable. I actually feel so bad when i look at past footage of HAN always being teased called ugly or when he asks members am i pretty he always gets a no or gets downplayed alot in shows when they have to rank who is prettiest and who is not. I actually feel like he laughs alot of his emotions away. I think main reason why every member fought with him is because members felt too comfortable with him and they crossed some boundaries where he actually was hurt. and since nobody is there to see that he needed to lash out and protect himself in which in return people would think badly again about him and its just a cycle that keeps on rotating like that. I think Han now doesnt have that issue anymore because members love him now alot but he really had to do some self sacrifice
Emotions are tricky. As someone who feels a lot too, I'm trying to find a balance with reason😅 it's more reliable. I don't know why but I had the impression that in the 2kids room show they had kind of a "plot" to follow, like the subjects/things they should or not talk about If you could, and if you're interested, you can watch their "skz talker", that shows the behind the scenes of everything and "skz code" the variety show I personally love the behind the scenes of the Thunderous MV, it shows them being professionals and chaotic in the same frame
Hyunjin as I think has closed up because before, he got so much hate , he seemed to be somewhat like han. After hyunjin got the hate, he seemed to be less expressive. People are really really cold hearted towards him. They even criticized him for crying. He cried because of the hate and they are hating that too. I hope he gets so much love that he opens up and express himself freely. Ik if he gets this kind of hate after that he won't be able to have it. He is not himself rn. I am a hyunjin so I tried to understand what caused him to be somewhat different from introvert. Before hyunjin was extroverted. It's my pov. Correct me if I am wrong. I still don't fully understand his personality that much. These are the video that hyunjin didn't get the hate
i agree! i think a lot of other people would either get angry or would just shrug it off, what hyunjin’s been going through- but it’s almost like he honestly has a space in his heart for stays, like actual friends and loved ones, and when some part of them are hateful, it’s actually painful to him as more than the usual “celebrity getting hate” stuff. it’s like someone close in his life he truly cares about attacked him. i don’t think fans are as abstract to him as they are to other celebrities- as they should be, perhaps. he just has so much love…
@@cecidemo yup but he is getting so much hate that he is getting cyberbullyed, death threats, etc. There's a gang so called stays who said they are gonna murder him on 25 july , on concert. So it is one of the most toxic fandom towards him. I does get love too and obviously i hope he gets more and more.
@@gaminggirl5914 yeah i’ve heard about the death threats. didn’t some fans protest at the jyp bldg for him to be protected? Also, do you know what reason the haters are giving? what do they think hyunjin did?
@@cecidemo they said they are ot7 and they think that hyunjin is the reason for all the hate skz gets. That's absolutely WRONG. He is most popular members and not to forget he is second most biased. No I don't think any trucks to protect him were send recently. The concert is probably cancelled as I heard some STAYs say this.
If i remember correctly Han once said that he was home schooled a lot when he lived in malaysia. Maybe because he didn't have that much contact to his peers growing up he had to learn how to interact with others later on as a trainee. I mean things like fighting or how to resolve an argument and make up with one another again. But that's just a thought from me, it doesn't feel right to analyse their lives and personalities too deeply from an outside perspective.
This reminded me of during the maxident Intro where I.N said "To be honest, I love my members, but there are so many times when I don't like them but that feeling itself is from love" they are so emotionally intelligent
10:36 so to add another perspective here, i understand maybe seeing han not liking being told what to do as him not wanting to be talked down too, but it reminds me a lot of neurodivergent demand avoidance. as someone who is neurodivergent, i sometimes experience extremely irrational anger/upset when im told to do something, and it’s difficult for me to want to do anything someone ‘orders’ of me. it’s most likely to never get done then (even something as harmless as ‘hey you should watch this series!’), and while its hard to explain myself there are a lot of sources online explaining PDA or neurodivergent demand avoidance. its very interesting! * we don’t actually know anything about the boys’ mental Stuff (besides a bit off hannie’s & the remaining 3racha members+hyune), but this was solely meant to bring a new perspective to the table
If you really want to see them talk about feelings, emotions and how much they care about each other watch the Maxident intro, is beautifully touching to see how special their bond is
changbin told us that during the skzroom of hyunjin and changbin they had a fight earlier and made up during that episode so thats why changbin was kinda defensive when hyunjin told him about how they dont know when hes joking
more skz please!!! I really love your reaction cause it helps me form an objective opinion on their behavior/personality and im so thankful for that!!!!!
I love your videos reacting to Stray Kids. I think their friendships, communication, and love languages are so loving and authentic. Please react to them more 😊
Such a great reaction... I always think Hyunjin is the most loyal after Chan... Tbh most don't see it sadly. They even accuse him of being selfish so I feel very happy when you mention it. These guys are so genue and precious thank you to help us understand them more 😊
10:18 as somebody who also struggles with anxiety it might as well be a control thing. I've only encountered 2 types of anxious people; ones that will let you decide everything and ones that need to have every aspect of their life under control. I'm the latter and I get incredibly agitated about the same things they're talking about.
I can relate Han Jisung. Back then, when I was about 13 years old, I was really immature. Selfish, Never admit the truth, Reacist and Even hated my own family, Blame LGBTQ+ people for no reason ... so much things😭
Thank you SOOO much for your Stray Kids content! 🫶🏼 I feel that you'd be such a great counselor for my personal life (God knows how much I need to have a listener like you who's so keen and attentive to people's mental & behaviors.. 😅)
Hi max, can you do interview between luke newton and nicola coughlan? they have know for their most unhinged chemistry and has been in alot of rumors about them but infact theyre just close friends! would love to see you react to them
Hyunjin got so much hate that he had to leave for more than 6 months and I think some of STAYs don't like him much because they don't understand his personality. Hyunjin is most hated in the group ig. On top of everything, I think hyunjin is very very sensitive.
I don't agree with him being the most hated chan is the most hated one in the group but other than that hyunjin is the sweetest soul ever I really hope people can see his soft kind personality instead of his looks
@@Qwerty-dc2mj oh I didn't know that plus every app i opened and search about, there some hater almost of the time . I didn't really see many hate comments about him . I have heard about him being most hated. He and all skz members are so perfect, what is there to hate. Producer ,dancer ,singer rapper etc. They are Unhatable for us.
@@Qwerty-dc2mj you are right. They are allrounder so they don't have anything to hate them for. so they just feel jealous . Stray kids are all multi talented. #lovehyunjin #lovestraykids
hi, I love this, and I absolutely love skz their dynamic, im just wondering, what are your thoughts about fan service? to what extent do you think interactions are purposely done or exaggerated to satisfy fans? like minsung moments. thank you!☺️
Let’s be honest, Han was a MENACE pre-debut😂 he fought with everyone, literally every single person at least once😅 I guess that’s just what you get from an angsty teenager trying to survive in the cruel world of kpop training. He’s so much more mature now

You are already more like them than you think. Generally the qualities we admire in others already lie within ourselves.
@@maxpbeaumontThat's a really beautiful thing to say honestly

Hyunjin looks cold if you don’t know anything about him but once you see more of his personality you realise how soft and loving he is 😭❤
Fun fact: Hyunjin and Changbin were in the middle of a fight during the 2kr with the brick wall and managed to make up during that same episode.
your insight on han is always my fav. it might be because i’m biased (lol) something you said at 9:35 stood out to me because it reminded me of his own words on a livestream regarding his song ‘alien’ he said, “i auditioned for jyp and became a trainee. i felt a sense of belonging for the first time, so i was very happy, and i wanted to get along well, get along with friends and be happy. but i didn’t know how to deal with people, how to get along, i just approached people without knowing how. so those people i think had a hard time, and i lost everyone around me. that’s when i realized: i’m with people here, with many people, but i’m still lonely. i’m still alone. that’s how i felt.” every time i read that, i feel so much sympathy for him and the person he was at the time. i understand that everyone likes to make the ‘predebut han’ jokes but few take the time to see his side and how hard it must’ve been for him to adjust to that environment. he’s also talked about how he didn’t make many friends when he lived in malaysia because he didn’t speak english well and he was homeschooled. things like this make me believe he truly was just isolated and needed to find people who would break him out of his shell, and ones who’d understand what he was going through and feeling at such a young age. i’m glad that in his case, it was the stray kids members, and you can really see it in the way they talk about their fights. they seem to have been very understanding and i’m glad they could overcome those hurdles to become stronger. sorry if this is running on lol i am very passionate about han. i have a lot of love and respect for him as both an artist and a person. i think you hit the nail on the head with that one, though, so i wanted to comment.
Not long! You could write about Han any day, anytime and I for one would read it even though I know the details already! Always have time for Han and people's views on him. I think he is an incredible human (they all are, of course, but Han in particular had a unique set of circumstances that created that environment in/around him and wow, what creative expression came from it! 'Alien' probably my favourite "Han-pop" song, those lyrics 😪). It all feels very divinely planned that they came together as they did. They are all such beautiful people and Han is a huge inspiration in so many ways.
@@ozskzkizz thank you for your reply:) i agree with everything you said. i’m glad there’s other people who love han and all of the little things about him too. he’s such an interesting and complex and emotional person and i wish more people saw that. alien is also def a fav of mine. it makes me feel seen, as do most of his songs.
@@cynniebynnie yes! Seen. That is a very apt word for it. I hope he really knows how much his words truly reach people. How honest he has been!
You are so right! And we don’t know how his family is thinking about him being an idol. I guess he had to overcome a lot of struggles. To please the parents is a first priority for many people.
The first award for the song Miroh was such a milestone for him. He was soaked in tears! Like now he believed that his dream might become true.
I have a soft spot in my heart for him, actually for all of them.
Hyunjin really has a great heart and is really relatable, skz loves each other so much
Woww the more i saw hyunjin the more i respect him as a person not just a handsome and talented idol
Amazing video, thank you for your insight. Made me realize how much I strive to be like Hyunjin
Love to hear it
I'm being for real when I say Han and Hyunjin's discussion of how they used to fight and other discussions skz have had about communicating with it each other has saved some of my friendships on more than one occasion.
After watching skz (especially Changbin) I took their methods of communication to heart and am much better at relationships now than i was before.
Thank you. it was very interesting and informative!
It's funny that Hyunjin is involved in most conflicts, or he's just not afraid to bring it up for discussion. I really admire him. As Seungmin said, he has a fragile nature, but Hyunjin is a very complex person with a lot of contradictions inside. He has a kind and compassionate heart, you can see that if you read his chatting with Stay in the Bubble. He is very demanding of himself, in one vlive he said that he usually mad at himself, and not at other people. It's always interesting to watch him, I think his complex nature is reflected in his ability to switch, his duality is crazy.
Hyunjin and I have the same personality and I’m also a Pisces so I totally understand him. We’re reserved but outgoing around people we are comfortable with. And Hyunjin has high emotional intelligence. He can read the kind of vibe you give off and reacts to that. A mirror 🤍
Wow. I definitely relate to wanting to be more in tune with my emotions like Hyunjin. Watching him do something as simple as a TikTok dance is inspiring because he always approaches the things he loves to do with so much passion. His emotion is palpable through the screen because he allows himself to feel so deeply and express unabashedly. He's someone I admire as I'm striving to be vulnerable with myself too. :)
I hope you get to have an interview with them
that'd be cool
I became a fan because of how emotionally available they are and thats why han and hyunjin are my bias and i love ot8 so much
I love your videos "stray kids" they formed a very beautiful family and as for Han Jisung I think that his way of being and his teenage self owes a lot to how he lived his childhood. He was about 4 or 5 years old when he moved from Korea to Malaysia, which means that he went through school with a language and customs very different from Korea, as Han himself told us, he could not get used to the place. Therefore, he ended up receiving education at home, which means that he had no interaction with children his age, only with his parents and teachers at home, which is why he did not have emotional development according to his age. Then he went to Korea at the age of 14, after his exams he had the opportunity to join JYP where he was from 14 to 16 training in a very competitive place to be an idol where he had to live with people more or less of his own. age. Not having an emotional development like the others, I think he must have felt very out of place in an environment where everyone is a teenager with their own interests, while he was like a little child in a teenager's body. Many times Chan said that Han was very immature. Too small for this. I think Han tried his best to be mature, independent and self-sufficient
I remember when Jeongin said that Han Jisung didn't go out on holidays like Christmas, where everyone goes with their family or friends. Han was left alone in Jyp's dorms watching TV and sleeping. This makes me think that maybe he didn't feel a part of them. Some group within JYP, because of this, were very lonely and reserved, they did not open themselves to others, this can lead to many people not understanding them, seeing them in another way, almost unattainable, that is why they dedicated themselves to working and compete with him. Unlike the other guys who had friends outside the company, Han Jisung had no other escape from stress than staying to work, it must have been very lonely and difficult to be like that, but he wanted with all his heart to be able to create. music and tell him your feelings. Through them, he is a person who overcame that stage of his life in which other humans would have given up and returned home to cry. Han Jisung cried alone and surpassed himself in the pursuit of his dreams, making them come true, he is a great example of growth to follow
Hyunjin loves love!
i can always pick out his songs (and they’re my favorites) because they all have this beautiful, childlike, completely open kind of love to them. his heart is so pure. ❤
thank you for reacting to this, Max :3 in one of the 2 Kids Rooms, Chan says that SKZ needs there to be a spark between Han and Hyunjin for the day to turn out good for the group, and I think that really shows what you basically already said: Han and Hyunjin have very strong personalities. Han can be and used to be even more very sensitive to being told what to do (it's ADHD, I'm telling you) and Hyunjin is everything you just said, especially the part about it all being too much sometimes when you feel EVERYTHING, but also his loyalty and will to express himself to not bottle up resentment and anger. I agree that it's probably out of trust for them to take it seriously and find a way to resolve it. Han didn't really know how to interact with people when he was younger, and pre-debut, they had the typical trainee rivalry and insecurity going on; but eventually, they really fell in sync, partly because they are each other's home now, but also because they have worked on their skills to resolve conflicts and really learn to understand each other. I feel what you mean about SKZ being a) so close and b) so emotionally intelligent, this is legit why SKZ has been the only kpop group of which I see myself as a proper fan. They feel like family to me, and it makes me happy to watch them grow and interact
I love Stray Kids. I love their communication style. I wish we all could communicate like this. They are an inspiration. Hyjunjin is one of my biases. I love how close they are. The fact that that they cuddle with each other and communicate like this is a good thing. I love this about them. In today's world, we need their kind of communication. But anyway, I adore Stray Kids.
One of the reasons I like SKZ is that they are competitive, yes, not in getting a more shining position among them but in contributing to the group or at least in not being the one dragging the group.
They all know every SKZ member does his best to contribute more and take more burdens as a SKZ member to his group SKZ, other SKZ members and supporting staffs, and of course not in the least STAY. It seems all of them feel to do more and better to meet other SKZ members' efforts and passion. That's why they appreciate each other and try to lessen others' burdens as much as possible
We can often see they become genuinely happy when a SKZ member did great instead of being jealous. And they always reach out to help when he feels he can have something to help
They often give compliments to each other but not a vague compliment. If somebody really didn't do well, they don't give insincere one just to excape from that awkward and uncomfortable situation. They won't give a insincere compliment just because the other wants to hear it. Either they compliment some other thing he feels the other deserves or just comporting by saying it's okay
That's why they really get happy when they got the compliments they wanted to hear or their efforts are recognized and appreciated by other SKZs. They know the other really thinks so and that's why he gives that specific compliment to them
Very healthy and positive relationships, chemistry and group atmosphere especially when all in the group are hard working and driven and share the same goals and dreams, I think
I think that's why all of them can keep improving even though some of them had slumps from time to time during these years
Thanks for your another SKZ reaction. Always love to watch your observations and hearing your calm voice and happy of you sharing with us your professional insights and thoughts ❤
Max, thanks for always doing such great content, very reflective and introspective. Would love you to do an episode of Chan's room. I'd love your insight after seeing one of his Chan's episodes to see if you get another layer of his personality. Keep up the great work, this was a delight as always.
Thanks for the comment and suggestion❤️
Slay your vids teach me so much because I'm into phycology
love that ❤️
i relate to hyunjin so much, i feel too much its both a blessing and a curse
a tear came up at the end of watching this video... so much appreciation
They have a good example from their seniors. I have noticed they look up to 2PM, which have a beautiful and strong brotherhood between them since their debut in 2008.
I love them for their music but before that I love them first for their personalities, especially Hannie, Hyunjinnie and Lee Know ❤
Han doesnt show alot of his wounded emotions to anyone. One thing ive noticed is that he isnt actually That confident with himself. He is always scared to fail or not be good enough. I think he always wears a mask and say im beautifull im confident im good enough to himself because other members actually tease him alot. Its a kind of back and forth thing. He cant be unsure of his looks and emotions because people are so used to him being confident and stable. I actually feel so bad when i look at past footage of HAN always being teased called ugly or when he asks members am i pretty he always gets a no or gets downplayed alot in shows when they have to rank who is prettiest and who is not. I actually feel like he laughs alot of his emotions away. I think main reason why every member fought with him is because members felt too comfortable with him and they crossed some boundaries where he actually was hurt. and since nobody is there to see that he needed to lash out and protect himself in which in return people would think badly again about him and its just a cycle that keeps on rotating like that. I think Han now doesnt have that issue anymore because members love him now alot but he really had to do some self sacrifice
Emotions are tricky. As someone who feels a lot too, I'm trying to find a balance with reason😅 it's more reliable.
I don't know why but I had the impression that in the 2kids room show they had kind of a "plot" to follow, like the subjects/things they should or not talk about
If you could, and if you're interested, you can watch their "skz talker", that shows the behind the scenes of everything and "skz code" the variety show
I personally love the behind the scenes of the Thunderous MV, it shows them being professionals and chaotic in the same frame
Hyunjin as I think has closed up because before, he got so much hate , he seemed to be somewhat like han. After hyunjin got the hate, he seemed to be less expressive. People are really really cold hearted towards him. They even criticized him for crying. He cried because of the hate and they are hating that too. I hope he gets so much love that he opens up and express himself freely. Ik if he gets this kind of hate after that he won't be able to have it. He is not himself rn. I am a hyunjin so I tried to understand what caused him to be somewhat different from introvert. Before hyunjin was extroverted.
It's my pov. Correct me if I am wrong. I still don't fully understand his personality that much. These are the video that hyunjin didn't get the hate
i agree! i think a lot of other people would either get angry or would just shrug it off, what hyunjin’s been going through- but it’s almost like he honestly has a space in his heart for stays, like actual friends and loved ones, and when some part of them are hateful, it’s actually painful to him as more than the usual “celebrity getting hate” stuff. it’s like someone close in his life he truly cares about attacked him.
i don’t think fans are as abstract to him as they are to other celebrities- as they should be, perhaps.
he just has so much love…
@@cecidemo yup but he is getting so much hate that he is getting cyberbullyed, death threats, etc. There's a gang so called stays who said they are gonna murder him on 25 july , on concert. So it is one of the most toxic fandom towards him. I does get love too and obviously i hope he gets more and more.
@@gaminggirl5914 yeah i’ve heard about the death threats. didn’t some fans protest at the jyp bldg for him to be protected?
Also, do you know what reason the haters are giving? what do they think hyunjin did?
@@cecidemo I don't exactly know because in my country the app they posted it on is banned
@@cecidemo they said they are ot7 and they think that hyunjin is the reason for all the hate skz gets. That's absolutely WRONG. He is most popular members and not to forget he is second most biased.
No I don't think any trucks to protect him were send recently. The concert is probably cancelled as I heard some STAYs say this.
If i remember correctly Han once said that he was home schooled a lot when he lived in malaysia. Maybe because he didn't have that much contact to his peers growing up he had to learn how to interact with others later on as a trainee. I mean things like fighting or how to resolve an argument and make up with one another again. But that's just a thought from me, it doesn't feel right to analyse their lives and personalities too deeply from an outside perspective.
always love your stray kids reactions max!
This reminded me of during the maxident Intro where I.N said "To be honest, I love my members, but there are so many times when I don't like them but that feeling itself is from love" they are so emotionally intelligent
10:36 so to add another perspective here, i understand maybe seeing han not liking being told what to do as him not wanting to be talked down too, but it reminds me a lot of neurodivergent demand avoidance. as someone who is neurodivergent, i sometimes experience extremely irrational anger/upset when im told to do something, and it’s difficult for me to want to do anything someone ‘orders’ of me. it’s most likely to never get done then (even something as harmless as ‘hey you should watch this series!’), and while its hard to explain myself there are a lot of sources online explaining PDA or neurodivergent demand avoidance. its very interesting!
* we don’t actually know anything about the boys’ mental Stuff (besides a bit off hannie’s & the remaining 3racha members+hyune), but this was solely meant to bring a new perspective to the table
gosh, listening to hyunjin talk is enchanting
max and skz is my favorite combination 🫶🏽
Genuinely i really wanted him to react to hyunjin more and i am really happy.
I love your analysis of the guys, I hope you do more SKZ in the future!
Thank you for this reaction. I love Hyunjin so much. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
If you really want to see them talk about feelings, emotions and how much they care about each other watch the Maxident intro, is beautifully touching to see how special their bond is
POR FIN VISTE A HYUNJIN COMO YO LO VEO GRACIAS POR TU REACCION😊
we need more skz content, i loveee it
I love how much you get Hyunjin in this video
changbin told us that during the skzroom of hyunjin and changbin they had a fight earlier and made up during that episode so thats why changbin was kinda defensive when hyunjin told him about how they dont know when hes joking
Yay more skz! Been waiting for this ❤
more skz please!!!
I really love your reaction cause it helps me form an objective opinion on their behavior/personality and im so thankful for that!!!!!
Gracias por hablar tan lindo de Hyunjin, es un chico muy talentoso e inteligente 🥰
We need reaction 2kids show Hyunjin and changbin with MC Lee know next
Agree!
I really loved the video!! definetly one of my favorite straykids video from you
Always love to hear what you have to say, it’s a pleasure to see people from your eyes😊
I love your videos reacting to Stray Kids. I think their friendships, communication, and love languages are so loving and authentic. Please react to them more 😊
Such a great reaction... I always think Hyunjin is the most loyal after Chan... Tbh most don't see it sadly. They even accuse him of being selfish so I feel very happy when you mention it. These guys are so genue and precious thank you to help us understand them more 😊
Thank you, Loved this❤️ comeback next month!!!
10:18 as somebody who also struggles with anxiety it might as well be a control thing. I've only encountered 2 types of anxious people; ones that will let you decide everything and ones that need to have every aspect of their life under control. I'm the latter and I get incredibly agitated about the same things they're talking about.
i’m so proud of them😔
Great reaction as usual, please I hope you'll do a reaction to Hyunjin and Lee Know two 2kids room someday, there's a lot to say
I agree. They were very vulnerable with each other. My favorite episode.
19:27 birds of a feather we should stick togetherrrr
Reacting to the triplets and Stray Kids back to back? Let's goooo
2:20 the moment you paused when talking abt the introverted Han 😂
You should do more stray kids reactions
Thank u for reacting to Straykids❤
I loved this video!!!
I hope you'll check out some other groups like Treasure! I would love to see your thoughts on their communication skills and relationships!
Finally SKZ! Thank you!
I can relate Han Jisung. Back then, when I was about 13 years old, I was really immature. Selfish, Never admit the truth, Reacist and Even hated my own family, Blame LGBTQ+ people for no reason ... so much things😭
I love so much your videos!!!
Thank you SOOO much for your Stray Kids content! 🫶🏼 I feel that you'd be such a great counselor for my personal life (God knows how much I need to have a listener like you who's so keen and attentive to people's mental & behaviors.. 😅)
That’s one of the nicer comments I’ve ever gotten :) Thank you.
Thank you so much for reacting to Skz :)
ojalá ver análisis de entrevistas así grupales
you should react to more p1harmony! and loved this skz reaction as always ❤
Hi max, can you do interview between luke newton and nicola coughlan? they have know for their most unhinged chemistry and has been in alot of rumors about them but infact theyre just close friends! would love to see you react to them
Very interesting video, thank you
I love you're videos, I think it would be really cool if you would react to seungmin's song by videos
Hi Max!! Please react to NEXZ' members if you can!!!! They are under JYPE too and debuted earlier May!!
maxxx i'm once again asking if you could check out lando and oscar. they're f1 drivers and i think they have a really cool and interesting dynamic
Hyunjin got so much hate that he had to leave for more than 6 months and I think some of STAYs don't like him much because they don't understand his personality. Hyunjin is most hated in the group ig. On top of everything, I think hyunjin is very very sensitive.
I don't agree with him being the most hated chan is the most hated one in the group but other than that hyunjin is the sweetest soul ever I really hope people can see his soft kind personality instead of his looks
@@Qwerty-dc2mj oh I didn't know that plus every app i opened and search about, there some hater almost of the time . I didn't really see many hate comments about him . I have heard about him being most hated.
He and all skz members are so perfect, what is there to hate. Producer ,dancer ,singer rapper etc. They are Unhatable for us.
@@gaminggirl5914 those people are jealous of his looks and talent they have nothing better to do
@@Qwerty-dc2mj you are right. They are allrounder so they don't have anything to hate them for. so they just feel jealous . Stray kids are all multi talented. #lovehyunjin #lovestraykids
hyunjin has the most fans along with felix, and unfortunately the more fans u have the more haters u get
4:35 😄❤️
hi, I love this, and I absolutely love skz their dynamic, im just wondering, what are your thoughts about fan service? to what extent do you think interactions are purposely done or exaggerated to satisfy fans? like minsung moments. thank you!☺️
Helpp, I didn't understand the comment about Hyunjin's and Felix's video?? 🥲
Hi ! 😊
Zerobaseone please 🙏
FIRST first i was first
Proud!
Please react on bts v with wooga squad ....please they are amazing 😊😊
Please react to P1Harmony too 🙏🏻 🌹
i have -- go check it out on my channel :)
@maxpbeaumont I've already watched them 😁 I meant to their new videos 🙏🏻💖
Let’s be honest, Han was a MENACE pre-debut😂 he fought with everyone, literally every single person at least once😅
I guess that’s just what you get from an angsty teenager trying to survive in the cruel world of kpop training. He’s so much more mature now
Hyunjin leading with his heart is very true! /// Would you consider making an individual analysis? Seungmin and Han are still a mystery to me 😅
