I really like how minghao grabbed his hat professionally

the8 literally never lost his glasses or hat in a dance practice vid. somehow had magical staying power to complete the drip but this time no dice - beanie flew

When you so cool that even your hat accidentally falls off your head exactly where you want it ....

"It's so dramatic with no reason" Why is dis so funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣

My friend mentioned that they seem to have more members in this choreography because of their blockings, spacings, and utilization of stage lol. And i think it’s intentional to mimic a musical stage.

A lot of the baseball references in the dance are hand gestures you will see in baseball. For example, the one with Hoshi in the beginning (with Jun and Dino) where they are moving their thumb/hand side to side usually is supposed to be a strike (done by the umpire). Joshua with his arm straight up with one finger pointed out is a gesture for infield fly. Jeonghan with his spin part in the second chores, where he twirled his finger around, gesture for a homerun.

been waiting for this finally!! also, did you know that today SEVENTEEN got awarded the Prime Minister's Commendation at the 2020 Korean Popular Culture and Arts Awards! they are the youngest and 4th boy group who received this award following JYJ, Shinee & EXO :) and also got their first win with home; run !! SEVENTEEN TALENTED BOYS INDEED :)

WE STAN THE8 APPRECIATION!! he really doesn’t get recognized enough for being one of best and most versatile dancers in kpop. can’t wait for your dance cover to home;run!

Elliot: “I’m a dancer” *chokes on laughter*

"You gotta love The 8"... True... Every Seventeen choreos just get me off my head every time.. It's just amazing how Hoshi and the other performance team plus their choreo teacher just comes up with not only the cool moves but also the perfect line formations that only seventeen can do... Damn!!! They're a smart s...

1:57 If you look at Dokyeom (guy in red) he slides under Wonwoo’s legs, it seemed to me like it was a criminal escaping the scene (with the diamond of course). Dokyeom mightve started off with the diamond and then eventually it got passed around (like you see in the mv with jeonghan and mingyu, then to Minghao and Wonwoo)

YAS MINGHAO DESERVING THE RECOGNITION FOR HIS DANCING AND SVT NAILING EVERY CHOREO THEY DO UGH 🔥🔥🔥 THANK YOU FOR THIS REACT VID!! HOPE I'LL SEE U DANCE WITH THEM SOON 💖

Thank you for highlighting The8's "spin"! Always my fave and wi never get tired watching it (in awe) lol

10:25 i find the hand vibration thingy super satisfying with the guitar in the music IDK ITS JUST THOSE SMALL DETAILS THAT MAKE ME LOVE SEVENTEEN EVEN MORE 😩

"YOU GOTTA LOVE THE8"

8:26 hoshi and mingyu rolled out also so 4 of them did it...aerial view is gonna be so sick

I just love how every single comeback Seventeen reinvents themselves and bring more innovation to kpop. I'm so proud to be a Carat

Woozi mentioned that this song is Swing genre and it really reflected in the song and choreo~

“I love layers” 𝙤𝙣𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙡𝙖𝙮𝙚𝙧𝙨

I couldn't help but share this, so regarding the8's ending move (the one where he spins on his toes then transitions to spin on his knees) is actually a move taken from his previous martial art sport called Wushu but specifically in the sub-type Taolu. It's not the whole move but the part where he spins on his toes is a move called the Inside Sweep and it's done mostly by snapping your hips and letting your foot follow the direction of it with your hands adding speed to the twist by being tossed to the same direction but towards the chest. Because I'm practicing wushu, the first time I saw the move I instantly knew that The8 had once again mixed a move from Taolu with his bboy techniques and it never fails to amaze me how seamless he's able to mix them together and create his very own moves. Kudos to The8 for another wonderfully mixed technique and to Elliot for mentioning it. This is another great analysis/reaction video by the way, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!! I hope you stay safe and warm!!

I would like you to react to The8 doing B-boying tbh it's satisfying to watch.

5:32 that's really adorable lol 7:17 love that they do a pool table arrangement for that part o-o

actually theres this reactor that genuinely thought the hat drop was part of the choreography until the end and i cant blame him, svt too smooth man

10:50 that part is Left&Right choreo, I think...🤔

when i see seventeen and elliott, i click

The last chorus is looks so chaotic but it's very coherent, I love it. I really got the broadway musical from that. Seventeen is just.. I'm speechless.

The8 is actually a member of one of the best (#6 in the world) bboy groups in the world. So its normal that he can do that choreo very fast and clean.

7:26 this wave movement, I don't really know if it's Broadway inspired or Going Seventeen 12 shadows inspired! But Hoshi being Hoshi, maybe both! Love your analysis! Love from an Italian Carat mom ❤️🇮🇹🥕🙋

The 8 appreciation time. We love to see it.

Omg I am waiting for this reaction to this awesome legend choreo😭 THANK U SO MUCH!!!

Is no one gonna talk about how Joshua made the hand gesture for homerun (right hand up, and twirl) in 4:46? Right before the chorus.

Elliott this was such a phenomenal analysis and I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said. I was absolutely blown away and I’m in love with just how layered this is, from the music and the choreography to the lyrical and physical references. It’s downright impressive. Like I mentioned in a response to a comment below, one of the things that blew me away was the connection between baseball and music and how they chose to represent that in the song/choreography/video. When we (because I’m a musician) want to make a rhythm sound jazzier in music, we say to “swing it” which is a cool parallel to how they say “swing” as in swinging a bat in baseball. Seeing those two combined in one video was such a clever and refreshing idea and I couldn’t be more impressed with Seventeen for how they executed this. I’m personally not a Carat, but I thoroughly enjoyed this and can’t wait to see what else they’ve got coming our way in the future. 👏

OMG yassss Elliott!!! I honestly am so obsessed with Home Run, and a huge part of that is the choreography. It's so innovative and different and I love how you broke down some of the different moves too. The formation changes and transitions are some of my favorite parts since it seems like they're never in one formation for too long - ever flowing, ever changing. It was also great to see you appreciate The8 so much because SAME. I love rewatching this dance practice for The8's hat and the ending pose! Also, I'm hyped to see your dance cover of Home Run!!! I'm sure you'll kill it Elliott!!!

minghaoooooooooooooooo

this is the proof that SEVENTEEN are professionals

Oh yess we'll got a cover from a Top Dance Teacher~! Thank you for analyzing Home;Run, as expected of a dance ssaem (teacher)

Elliot kilig na kilig kay The8 😂💜

i did not think of the beginning being as representative of baseball. Just as you were getting into it, it hit me that it was probably the case. Idk if the 9 members are a dugout on the side but there are also 9 innings which I thought might represent that too.

This defo gave me musical/dance vibes. Doing music for Gsce's boiii this slaps af. If i try doing this dance i have a good feeling I'm dislocating my bones. Hehehee your analysis expands my knowledge of dance which will help me with my music rythm. Thank youuu

Elliott Top Teacher✨ Seventeen as Theater Kids of Kpop✨ wbk

YAS. THE8 IS REALLY AMAZING!

YES ELLIOT I WAS WAITING FOR THIS

7:34 are we just going to ignore that this dude just walked in like nothing was happening, and just joined in? Also, I actually watched the choreography before I saw this and I was like, Nope. I am most definitely not going to learn this dance. I don't feel like dying to day ;-3-

SEVENTEEN IS INDEED THE THEATRE KIDS OF KPOP! I LOVE THEM MUSICALS KING

The caption call us carrats as carrots again 😂 @1:40 we are permanently veggies

even their jumps all synchronize, ❤️

Yaaaas, I love your reaction❤️ your reaction is so pure not like most people who react to kpop dancesbor contents❤️ and also minghao appreciation 🥺

The choreo at 7:41 reminds me of a jam circle, especially with the snapping on the even beats!

I've been waiting for this. In Elliot's dance reaction/analysis we trust! XD

They won Prime Minister's Commendation Award which is a not a fan-vote award. It is higher than Daesang!

I like how you get into that deep in the choreo danggg you're very detailed in analyzing the movements,,, I love it

Omg i love this song and the way hoshi moves

i'll be waiting for your promise to dance this home run, Elliott!

THIS IS MY HEALING VID AFTER DROWNING MYSELF FROM SCHOOLWORKS

watched this again for the 4th time, and to be honest, you're the only dancer i trust when analysing seventeen's choreography

really love your analysis hahaha

Please react to "dream come true" of The8

i love how you react and comment in a cute way hehe

IVE BEEN WAITING THIS REACTION

been waiting for this reaction so baaaad 😍

I'm always satisfied with your dance analysis. It's so detailed. Hoping for more Seventeen Reactions and Dance Analysis.

I like jun swirl(?) Part. It's so addictive to watch

I love the way you give your explanation of their choreography. I always look forward to your analysis.

congrats! and as always love your seventeen video.

Waited for this react vid ever since the choreography video was uploaded

I'm so excited!

you're really great! ❤️ im just quietly watching seventeen dance practices, i didn't know that some of their choreographies are with some meaning like that ❤️❤️

will never get over this choreo and music itself i swear

really appreciate your analysis...

Agree, kwannie dedications must appreciate A LOT !

This choreography and music reminds me of the musical A West Side Story. Really, Seventeen are amazing. :D

They make a firework of dance break out of themselves, how cool is that, bet it look great in concert

When I heard this song for the first time, this is exactly the choreo that I was hoping for. So satisfying 🥰

Yey finalyy!!!

I usually ignore dance reaction video but when it comes to you react to Seventeen videos, I immediately watch it until the ends because I really like how you try to understand the concept and give your opinion in relaxing and nice manners, like you don't really force viewers to accept your opinion. I like also how u understand members dancing style, u understand the song concept and talking about transition..which is really fun. You really study a lot and I'm always looking forward to watch your video react to Seventeen dance video because I feel like your reaction is very honest. My favourite fun part is looking at Jeonghan and Jun expression during the whole song. Hoshi.. is always amazing. No words can describe how amaze I am with him.

I've been waiting for this! Your analysis to Seventeen's choreo just so interesting and informative so thank you for reacting + analyzing 💕

Really curious what ur opinions based on their performance at stage, also did u watch their members fancam ? If yes what’s ur thoughts ? Seriously I’m so curious about ur thoughts and opinions on their stage performances, not just for home;run but others too (their b-side stage, their concert vid, their awards stage, etc) hahaha so many, but seriously I’M SO CURIOUS ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

love all the references to dance history/niche styles

Amazing,👏👏👏

Seventeen crazy in love react next 😂

The bridge choreo reminds me soooo much of newsies!! Love love love

THANK YOU FOR THIS! I loved this choreography analysis. I always learn a lot by just watching your videos ♥

YAAAAAASSSS so excited for the dance cover!!!

Hi Elliot! Welcome to the diamond life.

The “head shaking” part is a nod to another chore(left and right)... I’ve noticed that they add little bits of old songs into all of their new ones
