SUP Y'ALL?! Thanks for tuning in to this video! If y'all have any constructive feedback on my reaction videos, please feel free to let me know! I'm all down for improvement.👍🏼 And if y'all have any suggestions on who to react to next, feel free to fire away in the comments.⬇️ Thank y'all so much and please stay safe out there!

GET THE DECALS I HAVE HERE: www.liukpopdecals.net/ - beautiful decals made by my friend Liu. No discount code or anything, sorry y’all. This is genuine promotion to support a friend! (I bought the decals myself😄)
ABOUT ME:
- I'm Cambodian and Chinese.
- I was born in November of 1983 (which makes me 37 years old) and raised in Houston, although my heart lays in between Houston and Hawaii.
- "OG KPOP STAN": I've always used the term "OG" (supposedly "original gangster") to define being old-school, and I became an avid Korean music aka Kpop listener/lover since 1998. Kpop was my coping mechanism from the bullying I experienced in my younger years and it's just stuck by me ever since. Also! Just to be clear: me calling myself an "OG kpop stan" doesn't mean that anyone who's listened to kpop later than me is inferior. A kpop lifestyle is a kpop lifestyle regardless of time.😄
- I was a hiphop dancer for about 7 years. I did the whole crew thing, auditioning thing, competition thing, choreography thing, dance instructor thing, so I have some experience in that field and I hope to be able to share some perspective from my experiences for y'all to see the extra things that I appreciate about a video when I point them out.
-My videos can have quite a lot of cuts in editing and/or my eyes will unnaturally blink rapidly sometimes. This is because of my neurological disease that came with my lupus nephritis (posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome). My thinking abilities and speaking abilities struggle to align at times.
- Yes, that's Jack Sparrow's ring that I always wear in my videos. I've been a Pirates of the Caribbean fan ever since I rode the ride for the first time ever in Disneyland when I was a kid.🤓

Kim Hongjoong is the member you pointed out in the bucket hat! He's a 98 liner and is the second oldest, as well as the leader of ATEEZ. He's really the founding block of ATEEZ-- He started out wanting to write music and actually submitted a few pieces to KQ because they're the company of Block B who he really enjoyed. It took about a year, but they found the music and brought him on board, and ultimately decided to start a group. When he was brought in be had no experience in singing, rapping, or dancing, but is now the leader of ATEEZ, one of their rappers, and has composed the songs Aurora, Sunrise, Horizon, and Good Lil Boy. He also has lyric writing credits for most of their discography with Mingi, the deep voiced rapper. He has a HUGE stage presence, and does really well with both blending into the choreography when he needs to as well as standing out when he's center. Just fyi, he's the pretty one that held the flag in Treasure at the beginning and also the one in the red that called himself a pirate king in Pirate King! (You can usually tell he's about to rap because he typically puts in a little laugh right before his bit, but moreso in their bsides rather than their title tracks.)

Hala Hala is such an iconic Ateez song~ Their stage presence is unreal and they truly bring their performances to life. Even the outfits are iconic, they still reference these outfits in several other of their mvs/title tracks. Love the ateez reactions!
