Listening to the members talk in English is always such a trip bc they all developed an Aussie accent over the last 4+ years, except Han who was raised in Malaysia and has a British accent.

Sometimes when the non-aussie members speak English now, they sound aussie because of Bang Chan and Felix lol Thanks for this reaction! You should check out their song "Maniac"!

You can watch a guide to all members to get to know them better if you want, and their discovery :) they are insanely talented

when i heard their company was debuting australian idols, AS AN ASIAN AUSTRALIAN FROM SYDNEY (thryre both from sydney) I FREAKED OUT. i couldnt stop watching them cuz they felt exactly like i was watching one of my classmates or a cousin of mine that were thrown into a boy band. it was scary how familiar they felt. especially after learning the suburbs they grew up in and hung out at with their friends before they went to korea. now there are much more australian idols in the industry but maaan felix takes the cake for the strongest aussie accent in the industry

Bang Chan was raised in Australia and moved to Korea at the age of 13, so he is native in both English and Korean. Felix was born and raised in Australia and barely knew any Korean when he moved to Korea at the age of 16 I think. They make their accents sound a bit stronger on purpose, in order not to forget it and as entertainment. SKZ put some English words or phrases in their songs here and there, but they have complete verses in English in songs "muddy water" and "maze of memories" (no MVs for both). For some songs they also have English versions: Levanter, Double knot (English version has a performance video - it is a type of MV), Domino. Some SKZ members barely speak English, but the majority is pretty good apart from 2 native speakers.

Thank you for reaction!!!! We need more STRAY KIDS))))

You can definitely hear the accent in some of the English phrases in their songs - eg Frankenstoine in Maniac or "I'm not sohree Oi'm duhrtee" in Thunderous. Cool to listen out for!

I've always noticed their accents leaking into their music. Especially Felix! Whenever he sings or raps in English, he has such a thick accent. I love it! And Chan too. Sometimes when he sings in English, his accent comes out and I think its amazing!

When they said Banana Boat I laughed cuz I was like 'sunscreen?'. We have Banana Boat in the US too.

in " maze of memories", there is a part at the end where Felix’s and Chris’ Aussie accent is very strong, so you can check it out

Fwiw, yes, their accents do sometimes show up in their music -- nearly always in the English lyrics, but also sometimes in bits of the Korean lyrics. And as others have mentioned, their accent has leaked over to the Korean members. One sounds more British because his English background was from years in Malaysia, but he does sometimes veer toward Aussie; and most of the others have some blend of Aussie and GenAm. I don't know how deep you get into groups and their content, but they traveled to Australia several years ago, and Chan and Felix played host to the others, showing them around, taking them to favorite spots, even filming two of their street MVs there (Boxer and Mixtape 4). So we have footage of them in Australia (much of it in Sydney) in both MVs and in episodes of one of their (many) reality shows, Finding SKZ. There's also a well-known clip of Chan's and Felix's reactions during a concert in Australia when they were finally overwhelmed with the emotions of getting to see their home after years away. Chan left Australia by himself and came to Korea as a 13-year-old, and Felix left by himself at age 16; for both, their only residence in Korea is the dorms. They have no Korean "home," so to speak, and both refer to Australia as home (which is reasonable; their families are there, and both are single-citizenship Australians who are and always will be considered and openly referred to as "foreigners" in everyday life in Korea). Chan has more than once mentioned that Felix is basically "home" to him and that Felix joining the company after years of Chan being on his own was something of a lifeline. And Felix, who spoke virtually no Korean and wasn't well versed in the cultural differences, found a similar lifeline in Chan when arriving at the dorms as a 16-year-old. They go beyond the Korean conceptualization of brothers/hyung-dongsaeng relationship and genuinely refer to each other as brothers; Chan calls Felix his Australian little brother and his soulmate. In other words, that extra connection of sharing an origin, a culture, an ingrained set of shared background experiences/references -- which you yourself mentioned feeling to some degree -- is hugely important to both of them. Anyway, finally being back home after years away, starting as kids away from their familiies, they both broke down a bit. The Aussie audience had their backs: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nMycnJmJrqfUaZ8.html. (If you watch this, please don't be confused. At the time, they still had all nine original members, so they keep referring to them as a total of nine; as of October 2019, Woojin's departure, they are eight.)

Thanks for reaction! Please listen more music of stray kids :)

Thanks for the reaction!

Great reaction. As an Aussie Stay I love watching other Aussie's finding and enjoying SKZ

You'd probably really enjoy Chan and Felix's vlogs. Because their families are still in Australia if they have days off and the others go home they often hang out together. A lot of the other members are developing aussie accents too. Stray Kids have a lot of fun non-music content as well as great music. They do fun variety shows like SKZ Code or have a behind the scenes series called SKZ Talker. Checking out a more in depth guide might be a good place to start. As for music their most recent mini album was Oddinary and four tracks have music videos- Maniac, Venom, Freeze, and Lonely Street. They cover a wide range of topics and genres and should be fun to explore. I hope you enjoy.

You should watch Bang Chan's sister 🤣🤣🤣 she's the one who got me into Stray Kids actually

LOL I am not from Australia and I got the banana boat reference. 😉 We have it in the US too. ☺️ Thanks for another fun reaction. 🫰🇺🇸

The other members have also been pretty influenced by their aussie accent, especially Han, hyunjin, I.N. and seungmin since their English is already really good. But even the others since they're learning and they're always around each other the accent just kinda rubs off on each other lol😅 although idk why but Han's accent definitely sounds British for some reason

Just to let u know about another Australian Kpop idol. It's Jake from enhypen if u wanna check out the group and their music. Poor jake- fans really wish he could hang out with bangchan and Felix because his Aussie accent is so strong in the group that the other boys have trouble understanding his english.

As an Aussie, I can relate to them in the same way you do :)

Poor Chan reminds me of Rapmon. So much. Specially while not getting the high five back😂😂😂

Try their newest album Oddinary. It has 4 MVs: Maniac, Venom, Freeze and Lonely st. Each is different. Their most popular title tracks aside Gods menu are: Thunderous, Back door, Miroh, Double knot, Hellavetor and My pace. Also every one of them in different style and genre. Other than that I would recommend: Easy, Red lights, TOP, Secret Secret, Side effects, Cheese and (with aussie flare): Question and Mixtape4(broken compass) - street versions filmed in Sydney.

When you hear "line", it just means the members who share a commonality, like being from Australia or being born in 2000.

Thank u for you for reacting stray kids more stray kids content please

They are so much fun to watch. I recommend you always turn on the English subs on Stray Kids’ songs. Since they produce their own songs, their lyrics are always very meaningful. Please react to more of their MVs. You could start with their pre-debut song Hellevator, and then react to one of their latest songs like Venom, so you can get an idea of where they started and where they are now.

Jake from Enhypen..Rose from Blackpink..Beautiful Aussies aswell..

"That's what you want, thick and juicy" Dirty minded af me: 😏

Idk why people are surprised that Australians sound Australian like why is it so surprising…

React to them more it’s one of the funniest group ever 😭

Since you've seen SKZs Gods Menu and Blackpinks Ddu Ddu Du, you should totally check out Stray Kids' Gods Ddu Ddu Du Also Cheese. My favorite SKZ song.

Also in this group Seungmin has an American accent. Han has a British accent. Hyunjin has a Korean accent. And the other two can’t speak English but are trying their best.

if you wanna hear their accent they have a couple of old songs you can check out for that: (get cool, maze of memories, N/S) and new songs I recommend you are: ( thunderous, easy, venom, muddy water) and they have a performance that is deadpool themed that I think you should definitely watch, it's called (God's ddu ddu ddu ddu).

G day mate 😊😁👍

My recommendation is watch every single SKZ video out there. You can't go wrong, just watch them all! But I do have a suggestion though to 100% watch because you'd get a kick out of it! Watch and react to SKZ Code, it's a reality show they have on YT on their channel and it has english subtitles too. It's soooo much fun to watch! XD But watch all the videos of them talking to eachother and interacting with eachother, it's soooo great. They're more like a family than a kpop group.

Please do pt. 2 c:

I have some suggestion of Stray Kids fun videos for you, maybe you'd like to react more about them while they speak english or members being aussieboo. 🤣 Stray Kids speaking the english language chaotic: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f6iJerNi3c_Tk5s.html stray kids english debate is a big mess: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ap97o8iiv8zblnk.html Stray Kids speaking english with Felix: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n9p7Z7tmyqybhn0.html stray kids aussie line being your typical aussie: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nJOAfpp-x67WlnU.html
