Umu: So this is Seventeen, this is a boy group that is debuted a few years ago that Hugo and all the other reactors

Umu: Have already reacted to the music videos

To-infinitive

U: So we're about to watch a live performance

Umu: Kpop idols, after they release an album and a music video, they go onto different shows and compete to win each show

Alexis: Oh, okay Umu: Yeah, so this is one of those shows

Jeremy: But I like it Hugo: I feel like it's musical chairs

Gwen: I wish we could film you doing these things

Gwen: I think one of the lead singers of Seventeen has a very prepubescent sounding voice {JIHOON LMAO}

U: Dude with the jacket- with the jean jacket? Hugo: What?

Jonathan: I don't know where to focus, there's so much going on

Hugo: oOOOh that's nice falsetto Jeremy: Yeah

Gwen: One of the most impressive things about kpop, especially live performances

G: We haven't been able to see it very much in music videos because, you know, it's lipsynced when they're actually filming it

Gwen: But, like, in live performances, they manage to dance whlie still having VERY consistent voices

Alexis: Yeah, and they don't sound exhausted

Gwen: No, which is Wildt™ because I would be sweating and out of breath

Jeremy: I like his voice a lot Hugo: What? J: Yeah, I do like his voice a lot

Jonathan: I wonder what the audition process is like for this Rachel: I know

Jonathan: "We want you to be superhumans"

Rachel: I love the foot Jonathan: It looks like flailing fish

Umu: What do you think about, like, dancing while singing?

Hugo: It's intense. They're doing a really good job 'cause that takes a lot of breath Jeremy: I would not be able to sing like that

Hugo: They're doing a good job of giving the singers who are currently doing singing the main line stillness, which I think is playing into them getting these heavy breaths in their singing

Gwen: I can't imagine being the sound tech on shows like this. It must SUCK Alexis: This is so precious

Gwen: Well, I guess they pass around solo mics so nevermind

U: some have mics, like, attached, and some have it

Gwen: They all have mics attached but if they're singing a big solo they sometimes have their own solo mic

Hugo: Now THAT was good! That was some good shit Jeremy: Until the last one

Rachel: It's so cool, the audience is, like, right with them

Gwen: I love the screaming girls in the background. It think that really makes it better

Alexis: There was a high note? Gwen: No, where was it? At the end?

Alexis: It started out, like... Gwen: It started out good then it was like, AHHHHHH

Alexis: It's okay Gwen: That's my impersonation

Alexis: It started out strong and then it got... because rather than adjusting as you're going up

Alexis: He's, like, "I'm gonna take the exact thing I'm doing and push it higher. And then push it higher" And then it got to a point where it's just really really pitched

Gwen: I mean, you see singers, and the higher they get it's like [demonstrates]

Gwen: Like they have this massive space they make

Gwen: Okay, tell me you don't- Okay, you don't sing F#s anyway

Gwen: But- so, you need more space the higher you sing, and exactly what you were saying, he took [demonstrates]

Gwen: And at a certain point, there's not enough space for something to happen productively

G: So then you're just like, punching it into your vocal chords, and it's just icky

Alexis: I'm just surprised he didn't crack

Gwen: I'm sure Hugo and Jeremy had the same sort of reaction

Hugo: For singing and dancing, I think they did a really good job and his high notes were.. Jeremy: Yeah, his high notes were really great

Jeremy: The highest one was like, it was very short, it was a little ohhhhh my god you're about to crack

Hugo: He did, and he did a good job with it

Jeremy: It was not really out of tune Hugo: No J: Except for the very beginning

Hugo: Yeah, the very beginning was just a little flat, and then it was fine

Jonathan: It was interesting, they were all very in sync, dancewise

J: I'm pretty sure they were lipsyncing otherwise that would Umu: oh really???

Jonathan: Oh, were they not??  U: I'm pretty sure they weren't on this one {mcountdown does allow prerecorded vocals im p sure so jonathan could b right, but idols, esp svt, can sing live + do choreo!}

U: Because I heard some, there were quite a few, uh.. Intonation errors at the beginning

Rachel: Maybe Jonathan: That could just be in the track, I mean, I don't know
