This is actually how I discovered Stray Kids and got into Kpop lol. I first watched idols struggling with English (cuz it's funny) then idols struggling with Korean(cuz it's funnier) and Felix made me laughed so much I searched him up and here I am, talking alone to WolfChan in my room

As a Korean language teacher I could say that Felix's skills absolutely skyrocketed. He still makes small mistakes but he almost never just cuts off his sentences halfway through like he used to do before cause now his vocabulary got so advanced he can actually conclude his thoughts most of the time. Even if he tries to simplify them so as not to get confused it's still so much better than just leaving them hanging. Not only his speaking skills but thanks to the members and constant inevitable practice he picks up the stuff he hears pretty easily and even if missing some details he gets the core meaning which is obviously the goal. So yeah I'm so fucking proud of him, I've been watching over his growth since the survival program days and it feels like I'm seeing my student getting better and better every day, he's done a wonderful job

when felix came to korea he could only count to 10 and say hello so he learnt from scratch it took him 8 months to become semi fluent because jyp said he wasn't allowed to debut unless he was fluent

Felix was brave to let the whole world watch him struggle to learn Korean. I love that the other members hype up his success.

Watching felix try to fight the korean language is so hilarious 😂😂

When Felix came to Korea the only Korean word he knew was “anneonghaseyo” he had to learn Korean from scratch he worked really hard

He's actually multilingual. Speaks French, Korean, and English. Fluent in English. I have to admire him and Bang Chan in that sense as learning a language that you were not taught from childhood is difficult. Love this video it shows just how far Felix has come and how much he has matured as a Stray Kid.

Love thisssss Felix is actually so impressive cause he learned Korean just in a few months

Felix has said that before becoming a trainee he didn't really know any Korean beyond saying hello and a few other very simple words - so he basically had to learn from scratch. By the time their pre-debut survival show started, he had only been a trainee for about 5-6 months, and imo to make matters even harder for him, he was more of a rapper than vocalist so he was expected to rap in Korean. I have huge respect for how hard he worked on learning Korean from scratch well enough to perform his lines and debut within just 1 year. I've been learning Russian for a year but I definitely couldn't do more than follow a very simple conversation! Also Felix looks like a teenager because he was one - during the pre-debut show he was 16, and at debut he was 17. Sometimes it's easy to forget how young he is because of how Stray Kids are kind of 4th Gen leaders - he's still only 22 (the 23rd birthday is coming soon though).

I respect Felix so much for this. English is not my native languague but i learned it from a very young age which is why i dare to say i'm quite fluent now. But i tried learning spanish last year and it was more than difficult. It's just so hard when everything is new and you can't express yourself because you don't know any word or grammar. It's also very demotivating especially in the beginning when you have to keep studying constantly or else you forget the things you learned yesterday. Felix even said he is a slow learner so it must have taken him even more time and energy and that during the survival show that was already stressful and tiring. Sometimes people forget how strong and hardworking he is.

I'm glad he has his members, who are supportive and helpful, but also know when to tease and lighten the atmosphere.

Felix knew just a few words in korean...he learnt all off it during training

Felix is the most adorable AUSSIE boy 🤩

Idk but Felix really inspires me to learn Korean, for me learning Korean is very difficult but he still learned it well in the first few months. Overall this is awesome and cute too💗💙

It's funny how I have watched all these videos of stray kids but if it is with Ben Kim's reaction I have to watch it again Really love ur vibes and all❤❤❤

he's amazing, the handships that trainees go through are insane, imagine having to learn Korean on top of that!

Watching Felix struggle with Korean last is just so cuteeee 😭😭

I love Felix and I hate seeing him struggling but I know the hard time I'm having trying to learn the basics so it's nice to see someone i adore struggle like he did in the beginning. BangChan still doesn't even know some words even after all this time!!!

Please do one for Changbin, he's such a duality of emotional intelligence and chaos

All new language learners go through this. So so relatable.

Ben's straykidz content is helping me get into straykidz more

Felix speaks English, French and Korean. Watching him try to fine the words is so cute cause I understand as someone struggling to learn Korean 😂😊

The episode that first clip comes from is so good, with SKZ and The BOYZ... but it feels a little bad that they were gonna use someone else to give the clues and the other host helping the other team specifically chose Felix, either for content or for their team to win because of his lacking skills. Still a great episode if anyone wants to check it out. The group vibes are immaculate. Also, I'm pretty sure Bang Chan said that whole side dish pun joke was on purpose so it's weird people keep using that as "his skills are bad". That whole section of stuff is scripted anyways.

Felix only knew how to say hello in Korean when he first got to Korea.

Any kid that grew up in a two language household has the this damn fight. To get the right words for what you're trying to say. In any of your languages which sucks but also fun at the same time.❤

Ben you are Awesome and Fun to watch ! I've been watching and following you for over a year. I just got the nerve up to say hello now. Keep up your Amazing content and you deserve everyone watching you to follow you. ❤

It's hilarious how Felix struggles with Korean but it's so cute though

I’m a native spanish speaker learning french and mandarin in university and it is so incredibly difficult to get to the fluency that felix has gotten to, even when I graduate I feel like I wont be as fluent as he is. He must have been so consistent and hardworking. Same with most foreign idols, I have so much respect for them, they’re so motivating. I can also imagine how proud of him his family must be for learning their language and having an incredible life in korea

Literally love Ben And Felix. And ofcccccc stray kidssss 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🤍🤍🤍🤍😭😭😭👌👌. Tyyy from the heart of my bottom for all of these skz vids. So happy I subbed. Sending love from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤ keep up the skz content man

Poor Felix got eliminated for not speaking Korean right yet now jyp is making a girl group with like 10 girls and only 2 of them speak Korean

FELIX IS SO CUTE MY BABY ADORABLE💝👼😇💙💙💙

Felix struggling with speaking Korean was so hilarious😂😂 i can understand I can't speak or understand Korean as well

Felix speaks 4 languages fluently today very very impressive!!!

Seungmin being y/n next plsss 😭🙏

Felix really came to Korea not speaking any but a couple words, almost got cut from stray kids because his Korean wasn’t good enough, and had to learn all this in public in front of everyone, it’s really pretty amazing.

HE’S AN ANGEL

My sweet angel 😇😇 he is still learning some words but he has improved a lot along this time . I'm so proud of him. 🎉🎉🎉

8:16 Felix also speaks japanese and french, he’s humbling us all :D

when they talked about the fact that felix can speak english very well it reminded me of when keeho spoke in french in a live and someone commented "lol bad french" and he just answered "ok let's hear you speak Korean"

I can’t even imagine how difficult that must’ve been! I find Korean super difficult and I forget what I learned pretty much right away. He learned so much is a very short amount of time and is so good at it now! I’m so impressed! You should do one with the rest of Stray Kids trying to speak English!

6:21 this was during the Stray Kids Survival Show that they were on to try to debut I believe he was 17 at the time. If you haven’t watched the show I highly recommend it because it shows how much they went through and how hard they worked to get to where they are now.

It's really cute when felix struggling speaking korean..

Just want to share this to you. During stray kids survival show Felix got eliminated because his can't speak Korean well. It's was so hard for him he lose his confidence but he finally made debut with the team. Because why we need him to sing in Korean if he can sing in English. Notice that most of Felix part in Skz songs is English and it's just so cool

Learning a second language is so difficult! I'm a teacher of English, my first language is Spanish and I'm actually trying to learn Korean atm and srsly...I'm struggling!! So I understand him so well!!! Love Felix and his baby korean

This video makes me feel sooo much better about my struggles with learning Korean.💜

He's so cute when he's confused. I'd hug him and tell him everything was going to be okay.

Even if felox fighting korean language he is super duper cute

Felix go through so much while learning Korean.. today I'm so proud of him.. members always says that he is the one who works really hard to learn korean.. I must say hats off to this guy.. I just love him .. our lil sunshine 🌞 ❤

Loving this SKZ era 🎉❤

Felix works really hard. He just never gave up and I am happy to see how success he is, together with all Skz’s members. By the way, he is such a cutie pie. ❤❤❤

My first language is Spanish, and I'm here watching a video in English about an Australian Kpop idol in his journey to learn Korean. This is so wholesome ❤

The way that he says 'multiple times' i loveeee

I hope you'll watch the video someday - Seo Changbin being stray kids' fake maknae

I speak English and Spanish (Spanish was my 1st language since mom was a native speaker) and i was always praised for being bilingual, even when I went away to college. Found Skz almost a year ago and realized how much of a slacker I actually am!! Lol these boys are all multilingual!! The amount of work they put in to their craft, i swear! Korean (duh), English, Japanese, basic French, and Channie even knowing basic Spanish and some Tai! Maybe even more than this by now.. And im over here reading subtitles for dear life! 😅😅

Receding hair line or not you’re hilarious 😭🤚

I love Felix. He went from that person who can't speak Korean well to being the face of Stray Kids. I'm calling him that because most people I speak with, or I know, becamse Stray Kids fans because of Felix. Ofc, this is not because of his Korean hahaha BUT STILL. Strong boi 💪

I don't think Felix really likes being called "Young Book," but his bandmates still insist.

4 uploads in one dayyyy!! Ben is on fireeeeeee

Love watching your videos not o ly for the SKZ content, but also because you throw in some interesting Korean life tidbits and help explain the culture.

Thank you for your stray kids reactions we really enjoy them!

Ben: he’s a lot more confident here Felix: *singing in english* 😂 Hilarious video and well done Felix! ❤

what shaped my connection with SKZ was Felix and his struggle with Korean language. I remember I was still learning and I was stuck in this phase when I was thinking I'm not improving at all and even having retrogression then for the 1st time saw this exact same video or something like this and I sympathised with Felix so much I got attached to him and then SKZ. their love bloomed in my heart since then so I always hold an especial place for Felix in my heart because if it wasn't for him I might've never opened my heart for a new group and also might've had a harder time with my Korean than after I saw how He also struggles with the language

I will never forget the cop prank, it was great. I love that Changbin actually got mad, poor Felix though.

Felix with her Korean pronunciation,.... Is to fun';*

I understand his situation. I'm currently learning Korean and I have been at it for a over a year and I only have about a 1000 word Korean vocabulary. I am learning to read and write it as well. I read and speak it better than I write it. Major props to Felix for his accomplishments in Korean.

I LOVE YOUR REACTIONS KEEP GOING BEN

Felix is so pretty, they all are!!💕

4 skz videos in one day, thank you ben thats awesome

thank you hyunjin and ben for making my slightly multilingual self feel better about myself

Felix was 16 when he came to Korea and when the survival show was being filmed, i think he was still 16 but turning 17 soon (he came to a Korea Feb 2017 and the show was filmed like August?) He only knew like the super basics of Korean like counting to 10. So yh, he started from scratch, and him not knowing a lot of Korean was also the reason he got eliminated at first (JYP had also pointed out he wasn’t confident, which Felix has said later on, he didn’t tend to speak in Korean interviews because he thought he’d mess up and because he’s a slow learner like he’s said) Now he’s much more confident, which you can even see in their music, cos he used to get like random lines in English or very few Korean lines, and now his lines are increasing.

I LOVE YOU FELIXXXX

The bangchan banchan thing wasnt a misunderstanding it was a joke they said in the rehersal and they were shocked when felix actually said it when they went live

I love this video! Enjoyed watching 😊

I think the prank part is funnier BECAUSE he doesn't understand. It goes from a one-way confusion situation to a mass confusion situation, and that is 100% my type of chaos.

this is the best part of my day

First lol but Felix fighting Korean is so funny sometimes 🤣🥹🙏🏻

Felix is still trying his best with Korean😊

As someone who has lived in other countries I totally get him. Also Korean is very hard to learn so kudos to him for being so good with it now. Also, yes, he's definitely more confident with English. He actually talks a lot more when he can speak in English instead of Korean. I think that's also why his bond with Chan is so strong because he can go to him and actually speak his problems in English and express himself in a confident way. Also, you can also see that if you watch Chan And Felix's interview in the Eric Nam daebak show. Felix was so happy and he smiled through the whole interview and was so confident and so himself you could clearly see how truly happy he was to be able to talk in English through the whole interview. It's the most wholesome interview I've seen of SKZ. You should watch it if you have the time.

My dream is to learn Korean I really want to!! and watching Felix inspired me a lot!!! 8:53 For me as a Spanish speaker learning English I can say that Jokes are the most difficult to catch when you are learning a language!!! by the time that you can make jokes back to your friends, you are already half of the way!!!

He was so fortunate to be surrounded by such supportive people to help. I want to learn what I need to be able to sing along, not just the English parts. ❤

As a Brazilian who speaks Portuguese, but somehow taught herself English and Spanish, just to start learning Korean and Italian in an older age (I'm almost in my fourties), I can totally relate with the difficulties of speaking a new language

MARRY ME FELIX

Ben speaking facts

Four stray kids videos in a day! Ben out here doing the lords work 😌🙏🏻

love this!

Who agrees that ben is the best youtuber ever?❤ 👇

Keep going you're the best💜💜

Idk if someone already mentioned this, but sajaegi is basically chart manipulation. I can’t remember what it means normally, but in reference to music it’s usually when company will buy back albums to make it seem that the artist is more popular

Ben, you are a very funny guy, your facial expression with your body language is hilarious. That’s why I watch and subscribe to your channel. Keep it up, your videos are awesome xxx

I love your Videos so much❤

Love you Ben. Pls keep reacting to my babies ❤

I love ben's straykids era

My daily content. I was waiting hahha

It took me 20 videos to get that he was saying “I love you from the heart of my bottom” and not “from the bottom of my heart” gosh that made me lough so hard

Ben Kim Oppar keep throwing all stray kids reactions video to us!!

The one and only ben

Thank you, Ben!

Stray kids Felix wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow 😲😊😇😇😍😘🤭🤗❤️❤️💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💗 l love you 👑👑👑✨✨✨

I took two years of Spanish in high school, and I can only manage to read simple sentences and somewhat understand what it means, if I had to speak it or worse yet understand someone else speaking it I'd just 😬! Felix learning it practically from scratch and becoming fluent as fast as he has is truly admirable 👏🥰👏

Thank you for the stray kids reactions
