Hyunjin and his ponytail collected many new stays 😅❤

I stuck in this remix like wth Changbin and Han part is so good and especially the last dance break WOW!!!! StrayKids prove that they really is one of the best artists and performers of the industry

Everyone needs to see the fan cam of Innie getting flung off his back by his feet up into the heavens!! Like, we lost it all in the blinding lights in the official video! 😫 The boys did so amazing either way! They were definitely noticed by the locals in these parts!! Lol so proud of them and i hope they get a little rest before launching off again to their next adventure! ✨️✨️

yeah the camera work was..... interesting. But I'm so proud of them for performing here, its so major

The arrangement for this performance was killer. The orchestral elements, the lights, the camerawork, choreo (especially Chan sliding across in front of changbin and I.N.s lift)!!! This was epic!

as an exol i'm so proud of them and i'm glad they sang in korean this song is going in my playlist

I really wanna STRAY KIDS album with this all remix that they did in the past on all award shows so bad. ♥ Like "MANIAC" from MAMA2022, "THUNDEROUS" from AAA2021, this "S-CLASS" from VMAs2023 and more. ☺

"welcome to stayville" started trending after vmas cause so many people became stays specifically barbz😭

This remix is so fire! Also there is a fancam of the performance which gives you a way better view of the choreo :)

THE BEST VMA's PERFORMANCE

I agree, it feels SO different seeing them perform for an american awards show!

I’m with you the camera work isn’t what we are use to with them. Their cameramen needs to train the VMA’s cameramen.

When your self produced and can remix your own music, that's a flex. Also they always let people know those mics are live.

I loved this remix. Camerawork was not the best imo.

this performance was fantastic, totally stayed true to their usual talents, regular sound and their ability to remix their own songs while still staying true to the song they were nominated for. the camera work, however, was absolutely horrifying and they missed so much of their performance - it was ridiculous. they flipped jeongin like a pancake right dead center at the end of the dance break and still somehow missed it like ??? how.

CONGRATULATIONS STRAY KIDS FOR WINNING "BEST K-POP" IN THE 2023 VMAs!!!🙌

they won the vma for best kpop . so proud of them

My twitter timeline was full of new baby stays BEFORE they even performed! Based solely on Chan and Felix talking in the interviews and the VMA win! I'm so glad they won the award BEFORE they performed. They really showed everyone why they won it! Then after the performance omg! I'm seeing nothing but new baby stays on twitter going down the rabbit hole! We love to see it! Also Skz remixes ALL of their hit songs when they perform them on shows like this! And it's NEVER the same remix either! They are actually insane!

This performance was 🔥🔥 Tbh I was really surprised at the quality of the camera shots from this performance bc american award shows usually have such jumpy cuts & show too many crowd shots but this one had better, more steady shots + mostly good angles (still could be improved A LOT tho)

They remixed Binnie part probably bc the VMAs were paying homage to 50 yrs of Hip hop. I’m glad they performed in Korean and didn’t westernized themselves. They did amazing🙌🏾❤️

I need more people to appreciate this remix. What a homage to the hip hop celebration that vmas did. This performance was top tier and pulled many new fans. Nothing was off besides camerawork.

hwang hyunjin eating the stage he's always on fire

I mean for a US show this was probably the best camerawork I've seen. They got to choreograph some parts of it and actually had it on whose part it was most of the time haha. Also the show was "shot on iphone 15 pro" or whatever so 3:00 was basically product placement

So the whole show just felt weird and different and then I realized that SAG is on strike. Like, writers, actors, boom operators, all of them. So they were hurting on that front.

The guys change it up a bit or a lot depending on the show all the time. It’s not a surprise for them to do that (as do most other artists) so I don’t understand the confusion. I enjoyed the slightly more dramatic production and performance. I was super proud. ❤

The long video view was made for tik toc view. Genius really. I feel that you can definitely see how American production lacks after seeing Kpop production. Stray Kids definitely showed out on this.

Let's go Stray Kids.❤🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

The camera missed the scene where the dancers flipped I.N from prone to fiery Phoenix position.😭

~*casually throwing I.N in to the air in all of 2 seconds*~

I think because it was their first time at the VMAs and because this was their first real huge American awards show they attended, they were considered small fry until they performed and won an award the first time they get invited. If you watch their interviews you can tell they’re a bit nervous and overwhelmed. I think they’ll have more say next time around.

I think it felt strange for you seeing them in that setting because they didn't perform something more western-accepted or usual to the ear if that makes sense, watching them in an amercan show performing a song that is ALREADY different for kpop, in my opinion is the best decision they could've made because they were there nominated with this song and it perfectly showcases skz colors and we all know how skz don't give a shit about what's trendy or to accommodate to certain audiences just to be popular, they will stick to their colors and do their thing and they proved why they deserve to win.

taylor swift was absolutely vibing too, and her jaw literally dropped when chan started singing - this has been such a huge opportunity for them (+ felix was trending on twitter again fro being the 'cute blonde' haha)

Thank you for reacting to Stray Kids

HIS PERFORMANCE WAS INCREDIBLE 🔥 STRAYKIDS EVERYWHERE ALL AROUND THE WORLD ❣

It was awesome to watch them perform live with this; they just tore up that stage. The dancers deserve praise also watched a short of them practicing this song they worked really hard on it. The re mix of this song was spot on.

the camera angles really are giving mnet lmaooo

This entire performance was incredible, they killed it and so did TXT! The reactions on tik tok have been taking over my fyp the last 24 hours, lol! I love that people outside of K-pop are finally seeing why we love these groups!

i saw on twt that the change during the hip-hop part could be a tribute to 50 years of hip-hop! i fucking love it so so much

they ate

There was a still fancam and it looked way better than whatever mtv was trying to do. Also, I'm really proud of them because two days before this they had a concert in japan and had only one day to rehearse for the stage, some of the members were also injured and sick but they still managed to kill it 🎉

Always great performers! So talented my Stray kids 💓! Congratulations 👏👏👏

non stays fell inlove with straykids after this lol

Although the camerawork could’ve been better, they did amazing frfrr ❤

Innie really went YEET,but in a pretty, dramatic way ❤

this performance was incredible despite the awful camera work (give me my mcountdown cameraman)

Definitely the camerawork. I think the Korean networks are used to filming their groups and focusing on certain parts of the choreo and song. They even have fan cams where it focuses on one idol for the whole song.

This group is starting to rise up They killed it!!!!

MY BOYS ARE SO BIG NOW😭😭🤍🤍THEY KILLED ITTTTTTT !!!!!

i think their energy was fn on point!!! the lil hip hop inserts and the overboard stage effects!!!! sploosh...lol but the camera man acted like he was having mild seizures 😅

the hip-pop remix part by changbin is to pay ohmage to the 50th anniversary of hippo and make the performance special. Also, the cameraman don't know how to director K-pop performance.

SAY IT LOUDERRR IT WAS THE BEST

yeah the camera work was really bad and its also a s-class remix

❤❤STRAY KIDS ❤❤

The fact that STRAYKIDS always do remix and rechange the performances in every EVENT

I think you are correct Sebastine. Can't my finger on it but it was different feel to their VMA performance. The guys did great loved the performance and I know they changed it up. But feel or think it was due to be preforming in front of so many named big celebrities and piers in the entertainment business. Felix did say he was nervous preforming in front of Taylor Swift and others but was relieved when he say Taylor seemed to be enjoying their performance. They preformed after other acts. I am sure they were worrying about how well their own performance will be perceived. But despite it they still pulled of the performance beautifully, like the professionals they are. I know one thing after watching the full VMA awards is thank god Stray Kids had clothes on. I have never seen so much skin at an awards show. I am all about leaving a little to the imagination but some of these celebrities dresses left very little for the imagination. I probably wont recognize any of them if I passed them on the streets and they had clothes on. There was so much gyration and bump and grinding on the stage and skin that I didn't even get to pay attention to the actual songs. haha Stray Kids looked amazing in their fits and very proud for them for their award and all the other k-pop nominees and winners. Loved the Warning Shares rock performance, along with Shakira's performance was so amazing and Demi Lovato performance kicked ass. But my favorites was Stray Kids and Txt feat Anita. Txt' new song is good and catch but it repeated the same lines to many times for me. I still will add it to my playlist because I also love TXT.

The way how blonde hair guy was trending on twitter 😂😂

They definitely changed up the song and the moves, but it was fantastic!! The awards shows are never going to have all the hype that their concerts do, but i think they gained some more attraction and new baby stays ❤

this Performance was a masterpiece🔥♥️

I think it's the camera work too. In S.Korea, they put more effort into syncing it with the music.

I think it’s different because there’s no ending fairy

It's a remake of S class that's why it sounds so different.

The backing tracks were too loud and the camera editing was awful. Whoever was calling the cuts in the room…just no. They still killed it, but it was unsurprisingly disappointing on MTVs part. It’s really not like it was in the late 90s/early 00s.

I think they also did the remix bc of the hip hop anniversary. lol I think it was fire ❤

Some of the SKZ members (specifically, Lee Know, Hyunjin and Seungmin) were in a car accident today (Wed Sept 20), but other than bumps and bruises, are OK. JYPE issued a statement saying their performance schedule will be changed a little for upcoming events - the group as a whole pulled out of the Global Citizen Festival, but 3Racha (who were not in the car that had the accident) will still perform there. I'm just glad it wasn't more serious. Whew.

It’s the camera work lol. Angles and how they shoot these performances in Korean hits different. That being said I was such a proud Stay during this night

Camera work will always be ass at shows but it dont matter cause those who were there experienced what they needed to see LIVE!! As they said themselves alot of celebrities were congratulating them after the performance...also so many locals have influxed from this performance alone and its the 2nd most watched performance after Shakira🤷🏽‍♀️...crowd reactions were amazing as I've seenfrom fancams!!! And this is an s class vma remix...SKZ always do remixes for live shows nothing new...and the Changbin hip hop part payed homage to the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop which was honored at the vmas...I mean, like its going viral!!! They sang in Korean just like others sang in Spanish and Portuguese that night, so......but yeah SKZ killed it....always being different unique and authentic

I love this remix and I’m so glad they did it because the entire night was celebrating 50 years of Hip Hop. So thankful their remix highlighted the hip hop switch up in the song. I think the energy felt weird because the camera work was trash. WE WON BEST KPOP!

CHAN MADE A LITTLE REMIX FOR S-CLASS ESPECIALLY THE HIP-HOP PART TO CELEBRATE THE 50TH YEAR OF HIP-HOP

MTV has the only American performances with K-pop worthy camera work that u have seen so far. Everywhere else can barely get the mics right let alone camera work. This coming from an American btw

I loved their performance camerawork was …. Weird lol and Felix became the talk of the performance.. w/ many tweeting whos the blonde guy from stray kids .. 😂 as usual Felix collecting international fans

Stray Kids always go above and beyond for award shows in Korea so I'm glad they brought that to the US. The other groups that have performed have always played it safe when it comes to remixing and strage production, especially when compared to what those same geoups do for award shows in Korea. I think this felt like stray kdis brought the MAMAs to the VMAs

I think it felt weird because it’s not our usual camera work we are used to when they perform. Maybe not sure but something was off for me too but not in a bad way.

🔥🔥🔥

I feel like what feels different is the lack of fanchants and lightsticks.

The performance was amazing, but I missed some camera affects too😢 Just 2 parts was filmed really cool- the Chang bin part and choreo break in the end, the rest was missed. But anyway Stray Kids was on top and did great job.

Bangchan my Man ❤️😃

I saw this in a show 😭😭😭

I was watching it on the tv and I had to shut it off immediately because my dog has epilepsy 😭

Yeah the lights were too much - you couldn't even see the lift!

Taylor swift became a stay that night 😂

How frustrating was the camera work! I'm over it now and just love that they did such a great performance! Think the camera work needs to catch up to the kpop scene lol That’s not meant to be mean to anyone who was doing that job it's just a different scene and if you're not used to it it's surely going to catch you off guard

WT...cameraman. The best part always not capture.

Its a remix version

I felt like their performance was very toned down except for the dance break and I.N being ressurected at the back. I don't think the were allowed to go their usual "god mode" at the VMA's

Hey Sebastine 🤗 Yes ever since ive started watching korean live performances i now just dont like watching american ones the wlcamera works make me dizzy...they switch waaaay to often and dont focus on the right killing parts and like pan out at the worst angles..

thats right in America performances feels sooo different

I finally caught where IN got on the ground and ready to be flipped. Also loved seeing Taylor Swift enjoying it. I think, if she wasn't already, she became a Stay that night.

To me it Felt like I was watchjng some kind of movie. Sort of like what I was watching wasn’t real but was some sort of scene for a tv show? Idk how to explain it. I think it must be because of the different camera angles than you see in korean broadcast and the way things are shot in usa that It seemed like I was watching an alternate reality.

So annoyed that the camera mostly missed I.N’s stunt at the back. Seen it from the side view and it was epic.

The quality of the vid was terrible 😭 They had jeongin doing a whole 180° flip and we couldnt even see none of it 😓

I liked the remix

i think chan did change some things in the track if im nit mistaken

ya i feel like american camera work is just always bad especially for kpop i was there tht night and in person it was much better the energy was great much better then when i rewatched the streamed version bc of all the cut aways

Ateees

It's the camera the hole night sucked for the camera

I love Felix’s outfit

It's imprecise saying that they don't care about trendy things because all their title tracks since God's menu have a specific structure for going viral, but we can say they are really smart to understand that doing their songs in their style fits the most with their image as group and they are the best at doing it. Groups should do what is better for them and that's what Skz did. We don't even know if they had a poppish song and if they had, they maybe haven't this song ready to be released.

Dude, watch the Mama 2022 performance

It feels different cause of the camera angles…..we are so use to Mnet, and comeback stages over in Korea that seeing them over at the states feels off
