So basically xiaojun has been killing it since day 1. Awesome

that shift from xiaojun's hiphop to kun's wonder girls dance had me dying

To the ppl who bullied Xiaojun saying he is a rubbish look at him now..

*_"if wayv can glo up, you can too."_*

I feel bad for laughing at Kun's song... F my life.

how do people keep finding these predebut clips,,, some of them literally look like they were taken with a shoe box

Ten amazes me, I consider him one of the best dancers in the industry, he's really really really PRETTY, he can sing and keeps improving, a learned two additional languages in the span of 5 years (after already being brought up bilingual). Stan talent. Stan TEN. Stan WayV. Stan all of NCT. ot21 for life (but seriously TEN absolutely slays)

ten's past will never be forgotten

judges brain: make ten think there's a ghost in the toilet judges: why? judges brain: just do it.

I never knew Xiaojun got bullied all the time at school. But see, how he became, I hope those bullies can see how their "victim" became and choke on their tea

The way this got me crying...

How dare you make me first laugh m ass of and then make me cry?

Please watch until the end. I promise it's worth it! This video was really a labor of love. I put my heart and soul into it. It took a ton of research and it was an absolute monster to edit. I know the video isn't as funny as Part 1, but I hope you guys enjoy it anyway. I wanted to tell their stories and show their journeys. The past is important; you can never separate a person from his past. After all, "Turn my mess into messages, learn from the lessons, and keep on, keep on, keep on" is a line from New Heroes, isn't it? And I don't mean that line just for WayV, I mean that for all you guys too. You are capable of a lot more than you think. Comment what you think about this style of video. Would you like to see something like this for the other NCT subgroups? Or better yet, just comment if you have anything on your mind! I value everything you guys have to say. Your feedback helps make the videos better. As always, thanks for watching! xoxo Thanks to mccnhoon for giving me the idea to do a predebut video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gL6TeNSTt7a9p3k.html Credit for the subs goes to all the original subbers. I couldn't have out this video together without your hard work. Credit for the X Fire visual and audiovisual material goes to Zhejiang TV. If your work was used in this video and you want to be credited, please comment and I will gladly credit you.

okay I really need to stop doing weird shit in case I ever decide to become famous

you did an inhuman amount of research and the amount of effort you put into crafting this video really shows - i loved every bit of it: the funny parts, the cringey and the sad ones but the end really hit hard... i’m so proud of these boys and all their achievements and you put into words and images the feelings i wasn’t able to express: they put themselves into achieving their dream and they deserve all the love and support they can get to finally be repaid of all the blood sweat and tears they shed thank you so much ❤️

WOW... It really felt like watching a whole movie. First I cried from how funny it was, then I cried from Xiaojun's performance and then you put new heroes... You make great content, you should consider a carreer in film making or something like that.

THIS IS SO GOOD 😍 musical theatre genius Xiaojun, TNT comeback, pre-pubescent Kun, it's all so worth it

I cried at Xiaojun’s past, tbh I fell in love with him without realizing how much sh-t he’s been through, I thought it was all light and fluffy, I did not expect to be attacked like this. He honestly deserves a lot for his dedication to his dream, please someone come collect my tears.

wHo thE HeLl sAid my XIAOJUN iS rUbbiSh ? Talk to my hand dude

Sis I was laughing all the way until the end I became a sobbing mess. They've truly come a long way. The ending was so beautiful thanks so much for putting in the effort and portraying them so well in this video

NCT and WayV constantly reminds me of how beautiful it is to dream big even it's almost impossible to achieve those dreams.

I began crying at Xiaojun's See U Again :'

Some "fans" are so quick at clowning their past that they don't realize this is the biggest proof of just how much hardwork they've done for the past few years to be the artists we all admire today. I admit, I still laugh at some of these golden moments (it's just hard not too) but these are also my favorite moments for these had to happen to be who they are today. WayV earned nothing but respect from me due to their predebut stages.

Xiaojun's part in x-fire made me sob too bad he really had some intense feelings and his voice cracking made the performance even better imo 😭 Its literally the best vid about wayv thank you!! ❤️

Those who bullied XiaoJun must be jealous of his good looks and talent, so they are just demoralising him by saying all those nasty things to him, but XiaoJun came out to be stronger than the images his bullies have been trying to engrave in him, which deserves so much more respect and love! Hope we get to see SM giving him more chances to shine!

Why did this video make me cry SHINE ON SILVER BOYS WE LOVE YOU

My kings made it and I'm so proud of them💚 And who ever bullied Xiaojun must be seeing his achieving what he truly deserves, they must really be burning now. And the reason they bullied him must be that Xiaojun is too perfect and they were just jealous. Don't worry baby we got your back~💚

you'll really see the generation gap between Kun and Dejun's predebut dance performances 😄 #KunGaga

Xiaojun pre-debut weren’t as bad tho like look at Ten and Kun predebut photos skskakak

1st half: uncontrollable wheezing, shock, secondhand embarrassment, uwuing 🤠 2nd half: holding back tears, a renewed sense of life, overwhelming pride in my bias subunit 🤧 THIS IS A WORK OF ART. I KIND OF CAN’T THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR YOUR WORK. I HOPE THIS BLOWS UP BECAUSE ITS WHAT YOU AND WAYV DESERVE!

Im still at the middle but I already learned a lot of stuff. Like, at my age they lived 2x more experiences than me WOW

I know this was meant to be fun and all, but I can't help saying this after watching Xiao Jun's segment. When you manage to move an audience, judges, and your competitors to tears like that, you're destined for something great. Watch Xiao Jun, he will be something phenomenal in the future. I have absolutely no doubt. Rise, WayV, rise!

Awww Xiaojun gonna make me cry

I broke down when I saw Xiaojun crying and saying how he got bullied and that he went through such hard times. People always love to mock and bully golden, pure and charismatic souls just to degrade them and make them feel worthless just because they're jealous of them and they're the only ones insecure. I hope he's completely healed from that incident. He deserves the best. He's so talented, kind, beautiful and down to earth person. Now I understand why WayV kept saying how he's how EQ and he's emotional. He's a special bean and need to be protected at all costs.

All those people who bullied xiaojun wasted their time because he came really far. Keep chasing your dreams people.

xiao juns visuals even in pre-debut are STUNNING thats one in a million facial structure he looks straight out of a old movie

Xiao Jun you're a beautiful human being, i wish you and the rest of NCT members a bright and promising future. Thank you so much for making this video, i never knew about Dejun's predebut performance and how he talked about bullying. This really makes me appreciate and love him more 😔❤

no one: not a single soul: xiaojun: I CANT K-K-KEEP IT DOWN

Xiaojun sang it so beautifully you could see and hear all the emotions he wanted to deliver. It touched me right there, in the heart.

I really loved it.....Kun and the flying chair....

Stan Xioujun's eyebrows

we all know that tnt ten could've failed that johnny fashion evaluation

watching this video was such an intense emotional experience omfg when xiaojun talked about getting bullied i thought i was going to LOSE MY MARBLES

The common factor is that even when they had nothing their parents still believed in them. For example Kun was just a kid who wrote and produced a song on his own, but his dad didn't put him down or tell him that he was wasting his time. Instead he went around the city filming Kun to make a music video so his son would get recognition.

No one: Absolutely no one: Xiaojun: twerking Background voice: aye,aye,aye,he ain’t playing no game,what is that, what is that, what is that

When you can't understand what Xioajun is singing but feel the emotions through his voice. Me: **cries uncontrollably**

little did i know i would be crying this hard when Xiaojun started singing

I didnt know that xiaojun was bullied i feel so so bad :'(

I love how you put New Heroes at the end. It totally fit.

5:42 this Broke my heart. „If WayV can glo up, then you can too“ omg

Win win lines😂 that’s sad I shouldn’t be laughing I love him BTW THANKS FOR THIS

xiaojun has both a voice and brows of steel

Xiaojun has a way with making me get emotional oml

y'all i'm literally broken... xiaojun has me crying

O i SeE tHe VisIoN

I was really having fun at the first minute and when it comes to the end i feels like ... idk how to say it. I really recomend Czennie who stan NCT but unstan WayV to freaking see this. Don't sleep on them, you cowards.

They *slay* They *attack* But most importantly *they didn't give up.*

xiao crying made me cry... I CANT HANDLE SURVIVAL SHOWS

So basically all we have from YangYang is a picture with a car? That boy did well with hiding his past.

I cried. I can feel the love you put into showing the long road each of them have traveled. Funny and poignant and well executed. Be proud of yourself.

I fought the urge to laugh when kun's song popped out. His rap though 👍🔥😂 we all love our talented momma kun!!

i wasn’t ready for crying.

Xiaojun was already my WayV bias, but after watching this, I'm even more certain, I love him!

*I'll never look at WayV the same way again!* Edit : The end hit me hard, especially the Xiaojun part. I really went from laughing like a maniac to sobbing to tears. What an intricately made video! *Hell of a ride!*

3:50-4:02 the way Xiaojun, Ten, and Hendery's visuals literally made my heartbeat skyrocket

Xiaodejun wildin. I love my boys. Kings of predebut💚

WHY IS XIAOJUN SUCH A SWEETIE

I'm so proud of you Xiao De Jun😭 you've already come so far and it's now time to achieve all your dreams and we will help and protect you until we give our last strength to you and the whole group❤ WAYV let's get it! And always remember, Weishenies Are Your Vision❤

What if WayV did this kind of stage performance!!? 9:08 they would all look so hot if that happens. Ten, Lucas, and Kun would all be wearing the sleeveless shirts. Yangyang and Winwin with normal T-shirts. and Hendery and Xiaojun with long sleeve shirts Lol

for some reason this made me cry. they've come such a long way and they deserve it so much to be in wayv and nct. stan talent, stan wayv and nct!

The end brought tears to my eyes. Thanks for the video.

After watching Xiaojun on that x fire show, I'm just glad he believed in himself no matter what the judges said. Some kids would've given up on their dreams. He's really a phenomenal talent.

So this is what gets suggested to me now

I wouldn't normally watch a random almost 19 minute video but I'm glad I wached this. It felt like 5 minutes. So well done. I laughed, I cried, I smiled and I felt so happy and grateful for them. WayV deserves the best, I love our boys so much. I'm proud of them and I want to congratulate you for making this amazing video 💚

WHOAH I had no idea Xiaojun broke down like that on that show!! This was so helpful knowing their pasts, there isn't enough info about WayV around, thank you sm for this

Im deadass crying The arrangement of the videos and the music is absolutely beautiful, I love it. If you continue making videos like this, your effort will definitely be worth it. Thank you for creating this video. :-)

I STAN SUPER TALENT GROUP. Thank you so much for this.

WayV has some of the best predebut content out there and you can tell they were all made to be on the stage

omg did not expect to get so emo watching this but wow. i had no idea of all the stuff xiaojun has done and never seen like half this footage. this makes me rly proud of all the members. thanks for your hard work!

ok but WinWin talking about how he thought he made the wrong choice... my heart :( Ten has been extra since day one..lol I love these guys

Sorry but xiaojun has been my ulti in wayv and now I'm really stanning hard for hin

8:09 I wanna make this my notification sound whenever Xiao Jun posts anything hahaha

The end made me emotional and happy

The ending part is so touching :') I love my 21 boys 💚

pre debut Kun dancing to lady gaga was not something I ever thought I would see

This video is absolutely hilarious (and informative but in a very entertaining way), I laughed so, so much, like Xiaojun vs Kun's dancing or Ten's introduction? Brilliant!

I'm legit crying at Ten and Haechan part OMFG

12:58 "I never want to forget how it felt to always close my eyes and dream of myself on stage." so earnest and sweet and humble KING

xiaojun aged in reverse omg

I feel like i've watched a whole documentary about wayv and it's just wow... Go off documentary queen

He's not my bias but I've not seen an idol like XiaoJun before. The way he acts (behavior not acting lol) and his visuals and personality is different and I like it. My 3 favorite things about him is vocals, his face and his ship with YangYang (the uWu lol)

I've always held this belief about good storytelling: a story that can make you cry can only make you cry as hard as you had laughed with the story beforehand. Well played; you've played me right into your hands. Your way of portraying these boys make me laugh as much as I cry for these Chinese dudes. Love your content.

Putting New Heroes at the end was such a nice touch 😭😭

"if WayV can glo up, you can too" Tf does this sound like those commercials about facial washes and soaps and whitening shits😂😂

"Making tables fly" HAHAHAHAHA

Alternate title: How to have your heart broken into a million pieces OMG Xiaojun baby. He’s so fragile and I want to protect him forever. Delicate souls like his need so much extra love and tenderness.

i cant stop crying because of people who bullied Xiaojun💔

i started laughing and ended up crying, i started to get teary eyes at Xiaojun's see you again performance and knowing that he got bullied... it hurts my feelings when i knew someone got bullied. i adore them, i adore nct very much.

This is so touching You made me cry at the end. This is a reminder that it took years and a lot of hard work and sacrifices to reach where they are now.

Shaky raindrop: *if wavy can glow up, you can too* Me: *aww*
