I’m not a fan of Ateez but he’s allowed to listen to whoever he wants since it’s his channel. I think armys are just a little nervous cuz we’ve seen so many reactors hop on the “react to every Kpop act ever” bandwagon to boost views… and then a lot of them inevitably compare all these groups to one another, and other drama… but he’s proven that he’s not gonna be like that so tribe needs to put in some trust and let him do what he wants

Ateez is that one group that has massive amounts of talent, but is under appreciated so I’m glad you’re giving them some love and checking them out!! they’re my ults and I love them sm

As an ARMY from debut times, i respect ATEEZ bc they come from a small company and built their agency up just like BTS has built up bighit into hybe. I respect the hustle and also the fact that they participate in the production of their music rather than just be handed songs to do.

I'm Atiny (Ateez fandom) so I'm happy to see others enjoy their music, and I also appreciate your honesty about your music preference. For me It's important to not blindly support an artist just because you love them, not every song will resonate with you but that's ok, you can still show respect for their efforts. It may not be for you but I'm sure someone out there loves that specific song. To the army here I hope you give an honest chance to our boys, their passion to express themselves is one of their main attraction, they want to showcase everything to us and they try their best to receive constructive criticism from Atinys to improve their music. To my beautiful Atinys please remember to be respectful of others, we represent Ateez in the eyes of the world. What we do is a reflection of Ateez. Remember Humble and Kindness, please. Let's make our Captain proud by being sincere without attacking others. Edit: English is not my first language, I apologize if I said something in a rude manner.

I don't care which group you "stan" or if you even like kpop, you can't deny that Ateez are pretty amazing! Thank you for this hyped and genuine reaction 💙 it completely made my day!

I only stan BTS but I do enjoy other kpop groups and I lately went to a kpop festival where I saw Ateez live, and let me tell you, they were INCREDIBLE! The energy was amazing and they sound even better + their discography is very good. So yeah, the tribe trusts you Loui, feel free to react to anybody you like or do other kind of videos if you want!

ahhh I love ateez so much. Theyre live performances are insane, theyre super talented and they're super chaotic 🤭

Jongho is hands down the best vocalist of 4th generation. Glad you’re loving them! My ult group is BTS, but i fell in a rabbit hole of multi stanning and Ateez is one of the groups I stan haha they are genuinely such sweet people

Okay, here’s the scoop on Ateez storyline. Almost all of their songs are part of the storyline, they also have a lot of supplementary material and videos to flesh out the story a little. It goes like this: Ateez are a crew of pirates that received a magic hourglass (the one that broke at the end of Deja Vu) that allows them to travel through time and across dimensions. On their journey they look for treasure, have adventures, and fight bad guys, sometime with the help of Halateez, which are the Ateez members, but from an alternate universe. (The guy that was killed by the bullet in Bouncy was one of those bad guys). Each Ateez album is labeled with a chapter name and an episode name and number. The current chapter is called The World, where Ateez has entered a dystopian world where emotions have been brainwashed out of the population to make them easier to control. Ateez has started a Guerrilla insurgency to take down the corrupt government and restore emotions to the people, even smuggling weapons in chili peppers. And as you can imagine, chilis would be in high demand among people who had no emotion and were desperate to feel something. Thanks to the music video for Halazia it seems like Halateez is also in this world, and it could possibly be their home world since we learn earlier that the dimension Halateez comes from is also dystopian. Also, as you might have noticed, Ateez videos are like Marvel movies in that there are usually extra scenes after the credits (so to speak). Usually these have to do with the story line and often they tease songs from the next album.

All the Ateez fans I’ve ever met are so freaking cool - like they are always a vibe 💜💜

Just letting everyone in the comments know that ATEEZ does multiple different genres. Not every song is as hyper as the ones here

Ateez are amazing. But seeing them perform live is a whole new experience, if you ever have the chance, you won’t regret it.

after listening to BTS they raised my standards so high that other kpop groups dont do it for me. the only kpop group that caught my attention was ATEEZ and now I'm obsessed with them. ATEEZ really stand out alot from other kpop groups. you'll notice this when you react more to them. they're a self made group, they're involved in the writing lyric process, rapline produce songs, and the members participate in choreographing their choreos, there's nothing they cant do what truly sets ateez apart from the rest of the kpop groups is their live performances, the energy, stage presence and theatrical performances they bring into the table is UNMATCHED. they always sing live unlike many groups who lip sync. their facial expression and dance ability is beyond kpop and they can easily compete with professional dance crews. and they have the best vocal line and amazing rappers also, their concept is very rich. they have a movie worthy story line. they take their story line so seriously their Music Videos are all connected to each other and even their albums are very cohesive and the bsides in an album has a specific concept related to the main title track. In summary their story line is this: there is 2 universe: in dimension A which is the universe that we literally live in; we have ATEEZ. and in dimension Z which is a dystopian world, there's a government called "strictland" and they banned art and music and brainwashed people that human emotion is a disease. In this dystopian universe we have ateez doppelgangers, which they're called HALATEEZ. Halateez are also called black pirates because they dress in all black fits with mask and fedoras to hide their identity from the government (you can see them in Hala Hala Mv). Halateez start a revolution to overthrow the government and bring people back to their senses. Halateez use an hourglass to travel through dimension and come to our universe to get help from ateez. However the government sends "white masked man" who is a giant android guardian dressed in all white to destroy ateez and halateez. ( you can see him at the end of Answer MV and fireworks MV, also he's the one that was shot by hongjoong in bouncy MV). There's more depth and detail to their story line but this was a general information. I hope it helped ^^

the audience will be seated and sat for every ATEEZ related content on this channel i am so ready

ateez never ever disappoints seriously you should hear inception, answer, halazia, and the real!! fire also if you care about lyrics you will love them so much more.. and hongjoong and mingi the 2 rappers, always write for the songs! you will not regret getting into ateez 🙏

I’m an ARMY but Ateez are very talented. They are very good performers. I don’t like all their songs but it’s well done. I love Guerilla and Bouncy a lot, these two hype songs are top tier for me and are on my playlist. I’m obsessed with Guerilla and Bouncy live performances. The members seem really funny too. I love BTS deeply but I listen to a lot of different type of music.And I like some others KPop songs too. Thanks for the reaction.

I’m a casual listener of Ateez but I’m realizing how much I may be shortchanging myself by not digging deeper. They really are pretty great. Bouncy always puts a smile on my face. No idea why that song brings me joy but it does. BTS has a big piece of my heart and way too much of my brain space but discovering new music to love is probably my favorite thing in the world. The tribe will follow your journey wherever it leads.

Thank you for reacting to *ATEEZ* I'm so happy that you enjoy their music 😊 As you can see, they're beasts!!! These guys are so freaking talented and unique, and they still keep humble and kind to everyone. Please checking out to them more, and you won't be disappointed 👍

ateez are so good!! and not to mention all the members r so funny 😭

If you’re a story/lore enjoyer, Ateez is definitely the group for you!! Long long comment ahead I promise I tried to summarize 😭😭 Now for a summary; skip for MV summaries!! Ateez are a group of 8 boys, who have met eachother at their times of looking for purpose, become close creating an inseparable bond, and work together in becoming one and finding and fulfilling their dreams. Due to outward things, they split. One night, Hongjoong (the leader, cowboy in Bouncy/red hair in Wave, twin braids in Wonderland/ first member to rap in Guerrilla) meets a man in a fedora and black suit who looks like him, and gives him an hourglass, The Cromer, a Mayan artifact that has powers based off of the phases of the moon; during crescent you can send messages through dreams, and on a full moon you can travel to a new world. He tells him things are not how they seem, there is another world and to not give up these dreams so easily. When Hongjoong awakes, the Cromer is still there and all of the members meet up at the warehouse, uniting again. Through turning the Cromer, the members are transferred to a world that looks almost exactly like theirs, but very different. In this world, Strictland, emotions are not permitted. Things that evoke emotions are banned by the Leader Z, such as art, music, and even things such as mirrors and windows are covered at all times. All citizens have a chip implanted that repeat a mantra “do not question yourself”, and have to go to school for 40 years. While here, Ateez loses the cromer to Android Guardians (tall powerful authoritarian beings with white masks) and seeks to find it with the help of 3 people (Grime siblings and Left Eye). When they reach the bunker where the AG stay, they find another group, that look just like Ateez, just like the fedora wearing Hongjoong that left the cromer for Hongjoong, in glass cases. In this world, their Ateez (known as Halateez for their music video “HalaHala”) are called The Black Pirates, and are leading a movement to take down Z and open the worlds eyes to both the beauty and pain of emotions and free will. Through this, they unfortunately failed and were captured into these glass cases. HalaHongjoong tells Ateez THEY must take over the mission. Ateez is confused but agree, and that’s where we are as of right now; Ateez leading the movement of The Black Pirates to take over the corrupt government through song, mantra, and using tools such as mirrors. There is more, such as after they transferred power, Yeosang is taken and forcefully breaks the cromer in order to save the other members of Ateez and is imprisoned himself. But thankfully, Ateez is able to find a Cromer in THEIR world, and are able to go back and save Yeosang. But for now, it’s best to leave it there for the sake of MV summaries! MV SUMMARIES; Guerrilla; after Ateez has saved Yeosang, taking over the responsibilities of Halateez/The Black Pirates, they are using/ and forming a plan to use Guerrilla tactics such as disguises, taking over blimps, putting up posters, throwing fliers, and hacking into multiple mainframes (the “on air” room with the TVS, the speakers on the roof, the car with hacking equipment) to break into the chips of the students/civilians while hiding and running away from officials who try to stop them. “Break that Wall with our feel, We are the Guerrillas” is the main idea here. You can see Ateez in a bunker at the end, talking with Left Eye (who survived the bunker incident, the Grime siblings did not) when a child with a uniform runs through the gate. He is wearing a Prestige Academy uniform, and is pleading for Ateez’s help because his brother has been showing emotions and has an emotion test soon; if he fails, he will be send to the bunker and disposed of. Thankfully, Ateez was planning to go there to do a mass awakening, so it’s the perfect reason to go. Deja Vu: Deja Vu has multiple of the meeting Left eye and this “Halateez”, as well as the Yeosang breaking the cromer. When Ateez arrive in Strictland they have to approach a man named Left Eye, as he’s the only one who knows where the Android Guardian bunker is. Unfortunately, there is also a yellow gas (if you ever watch Fireworks I’m The One this is shown there) that causes hallucinations and made Left Eye very unapproachable. This is the Junk Yard scene. The warehouse scene with them being identified and the hacking is them successfully getting Left Eye’s help, and getting into the bunker. The blue light and the part with Hongjoong wearing the fedora is the Halateez/Ateez meeting moment, where Halajoong tells them it’s now time for Ateez to take over their roles. The outro scene is Yeosang, when Ateez is caught after trying to grab the cromer and Yeosang decides to break it in order to save the other members (remember, they get the cromer back from their world). If you watch Say My Name, this will explain how Yeosang is depicted since he is in a glass case in that MV. Bouncy; Bouncy has less lore overall, similar to Wave. Their characters are split by what they’re wanted for and who they are depicted as. Most of this story is actually locked by reading the Diaries in the album. The gist is that Ateez had to split up in order to stay in hiding from the government (which is why they look a bit disjointed), and they end up successfully breaking into the school and saving the boy/awakening a large part of the students. In this case, the chili pepper is like an awakening item. Think of it like the Matrix pills, and Ateez is using these peppers to wake them up. If you know the movie Akira, it also is based on that! The shooting of the Masked Man (Android Guardian) and the scene with all of the members dancing in a white building with white uniforms and a Prestige badge is representing them successfully breaking in. The outro however, is sometimes misinterpreted. Unfortunately, Ateez wasn’t able to fully take down Z. Which is why Mingi says “so freaking persistent” and there is a Z carved out in the wanted posters. Sadly in the diaries, Z is very much alive and well, and actually punishes the principle for allowing Ateez to succeed at all. This is where we currently are in the story, and there’s so much missing from this MV that’s in the diaries alone,. Wave; wave is actually a MV that was right around when they started showing heavy lore themes, but before they started really telling us the story. This MV is from the Treasure Series, that has a lot of debate as to where it is placed and how positive or sad it is. A few big themes are there though, such as oceans, dreams, radio signals, roads/pathways, and a big thing is Hongjoong waking up to “Open Your Eyes” (a very common phrase and is used with the Black Pirates as well) with a compass in his hand. Wonderland; this is another Treasure Series MV, but has a lot more to cover. Ateez, who have gone through this long journey, are at “The beginning of the end” and racing to move forward. There are heavy themes of battle, the compass, time in general, failure and succeeding, waiving their flags, and this is considered a major battle against Z with the door opening and marching implements. I have a theory that this is where Halateez failed, but that’s for another day. And I saw that inception was next so why not add a tiny summary to that one without getting too deep; Inception in literally the dream that Ateez has with the visuals of Halateez, and that’s the beginning of how this whole story happens. They’re all in beds, and their location is based off of their character diary from the first albums! Whew! I cant believe i wrote so much, and this is me trying to summarize as much as I can. I’m actually super into the lore, and I could probably write multiple essays before I even stop, but thankfully you chose MVs that are both lore heavy and easy to explain in a linear way (as there are also themes of them being pirates! Hence the looks in wonderland esp for Hongjoong, and things like the hourglass and cromer being so important!). Didn’t mention a lot of stuff that’s important but hopefully this will explain a bit and intrigue you :D

As an armytiny I’m really happy you are reacting to our Pirates! A lot of their songs correlates to their pirate-multiverse-dystopian storyline. A lot of their bsides are gems with good messages. And overall they’re extraordinarily good performers, it’s worth seeing a live of theirs (maybe their mama performance where they covered BTS) I’m excited to going to their concert at the end of the month!

Ateez is another group that I’ve loved for a long time, I’m literally so happy you checked them out

He’s always reacted to other stuff besides BTS guys, including other kpop groups, please don’t start acting ridiculous in these comments. I’m not even atiny but I need y’all to be normal please I beg. We already know how he feels about BTS and shouldn’t have any reason to worry.

Babe, Ateez has literally the most intricately crafted, best thought-out, most detailed and most interesting story line in all of Kpop. Have fun exploring their universe and if you have questions, we Atinys are always here to help you out 😌❤️

One thing about Ateez to recommend them: they're with an independent label, rather than one of the, "Big Three." I'm not in their fandom, but they've always seemed like a group that's trying to do something slightly different than the KPOP norm, which I like.

YES FOR MORE ATEEZ ON THIS CHANNEL! you listened to quite a diverse selection of ateez's music already in this video and if you liked all these, you're definitely going to like the rest of ateez's music! I'm so excited for you to listen to their albums fully because wow each one is an experience. The level and quality of the production is insane for their music. They have such a rich storyline within their music videos and albums it's quite beautiful. One of the things ATINY (their fandom, pronounced AY-TEENIE) is very proud of is how self made they are as artists. They were the very first artists in their label, KQ, a very small company with limited resources, and ATEEZ essentially built up KQ to what it is now. Hongjoong, their leader and main rapper, has produced many songs. These boys are so talented and this group in particular are very well known and praised for their performances and stage presence. I have never seen a group that captivates and shows such emotion like ATEEZ does when they perform. These boys have also spoken up a lot about inclusivity and equality and always aim to spread a positive message and that makes me really proud as an ATINY. I'm so excited to go through the journey of exploring ATEEZ's music with you, they really never do disappoint. If you made it all the way here, this link is the very first piece of content ATEEZ ever put out into the world, a pre-debut dance cover where they really showcase their energy, their flavor and personality. For a lot of ATINY, myself included, this was their introduction to ATEEZ and it holds a special place in the fandom. I think it would be nice to see you check it out! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a6dpeLB917u2g2w.html&ab_channel=KQENTERTAINMENT

Nothing screams ATEEZ more than people just getting into then and barking in confusion right along with them 🤣😭😭😭 it’s like Idk why im barking but I’m gone bark with them mfs 🤣

Thank you for checking them out. Appreciate your honest opinion, especially for listening LISTENING, and hearing all the instruments. That's one of their strengths, apart from their choreographies and live performances.

Something I always like to say is that Ateez title tracks make you want to fight people. Lmao, they always come with crazy energy and you feel like you are having a heart attack while listening to them. I seriously love ateez as they also cheer me up on bad days.

Idk what these ppl talking ab but I appreciate you for reacting to ateez, they are like the best group you’ll find. Their stage presence is like top tier and they literally have no skipable songs! And you know they’re good when you have bigger companies literally copying them 👀 #4thgenleaders

this guy's excitement is so contagious!!! ateez is one of my favorite groups, i can't wait to come back and watch him react to some more

i am like a full time ARMY but im literally always SO IN LOVE WITH ATEEZ SONGS LIKE OH MY GOD THE TALENT IS SO AAAAAAAA love it love it listening to ATEEZ with you was so hype

The reason I love watching reactors is seeing that joy and awe when you first discover a group/artist. I completely loved how you fell into the BTS hole. So I’m so happy you enjoyed Ateez and I can’t wait to see you fall into their world as well ❤️

Thanks for reacting to Ateez and for appreciating their music

Ateez is one of the groups i stan due to the amount of dedication and talent they have. When you see their live performances its like you cant deny that they love what they do and out EVERY ONCE of energy they got in their body! This group is amazing and I'm so happy you are checking them out!!!

Moment of Transparency: If this wasn't Loui, whom I have come to truly respect and whose opinion I might not always agree with but value greatly, I wouldn't have even clicked on the video. I don't actively listen to Ateez (I legit know only 1 of their songs) but I know lots of fellow ARMY that truly enjoy their music and I am open minded enough to give them a listen. And I'm glad I did. I found a song in the handful that Loui randomly listened to that I genuinely enjoyed. And, after watching 5 MVs of these guys back to back, I can totally understand the hype: These guys are energetic and has super dynamic music-- who wouldn't enjoy that? Thanks for sharing you reaction, Loui, as always this was super entertaining. And even if I don't seek out Ateez music on my own, I would be happy to hang out with you and listen to more of their music. What can I say? Your enthusiasm is infectious. 😉

I think that this comment section for the most part has proven that ARMYs can be a chill fandom too. It’s just the bad apples that get the most attention.

the way i JUMPED when i saw ateez in the title my armytiny heart almost stopped omg. I think you might like some other songs like fireworks, thanxx, halazia, inception, etc. They also have some AMAZING b-sides and other songs too (i really love aurora, django, take me home, dont stop, mist, to name a few) Their mv's all have so much lore and connections its honestly kinda crazy and dont even get me started on their insane live stages and vocals!! i'm so happy you enjoyed them so far!

Honestly, their live performances make an okay song incredible and an incredible song transcendent. It’s worth it to watch some of their live performances. Soooo much better than the music videos.

ateez are insaneee the first group that i like literally the whole discography of and that doesnt happen with other groups at all for me

You like beat switching and innovative formats in music right? So you will love Ateez. Besides their themes and concepts are interesting to dive into. They are into World Building with their music, so like every album adds more to the previous ones. You can imagine their entire discography as a galaxy where there are different planets but all of them are connected. Every time Ateez releases new music our galaxy becomes larger, more detailed.

I am a BTS fan and an ATEEZ fan. Multifans exist and we live for this 🎉 thanks for checking out my other favorites!

Highly recommend ‘Hala Hala’ and ‘Say My Name’!! They’re ATEEZ’s first comeback, double-title track songs that includes one w an anthem drop and the other with an ANTI-drop 😋😉 And speaking of firsts, they debuted with two title tracks as well! ‘Pirate King’ and ‘Treasure’ will be sure to give you a pleasant rap duo verses and shows that they’ve kept their anthem, epic-ness since the beginning! 🥰🥰💕

Btw if you think jongho sings high in this version of wonderland there’s a symphony version where he sings about 4 steps higher. And that’s the one he does live

That singing parrot in bouncy mv caught me off guard so bad when I watched it for the first time 😂 quite funny

After BTS went hiatus, I began stanning Ateez & a few other groups. Needed to go experience their concerts which is no regrets at all! Happy that you chose to react to their song.^^

ATEEZ ARE INSANELY TALENTED!! SO I’M GLAD YOU REACTED TO THEM!!! Here’s some info about them 1) They debuted on October 2018 with the double tittle tracks “Pirate King” and “Treasure” 2) They are from KQ Entertainment, a small company who just had 10 employees when ATEEZ debuted but now they have 100 employees and even debuted another group called Xikers! So this is why you will see that the quality in old ATEEZ MV, aren’t that high budget as now! 3) They’re 8 members and their introduction is “8 MAKES 1 TEAM!” (so they’re really like family) 4) THEY HAVE A VERY STRONG DANCE SKILLS! LITERALLY THE 8 OF THEM ARE PROFESSIONAL DANCERS, they trained in LA when they were trainees and back then they were called KQ FELLAZ ( there’s 3 performances videos of it that you definitely need to check it out) 5) Their energy and stage presence is UNMATCHED! (To understand this you will have to watch dance practice, live performances and their performances in Kingdom and Immortal Songs!) If you want to learn more about them you should react to “THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO ATEEZ (2023)”

I dont know if you still read the comments on this video but if you really wanna get into ATEEZ here a "little" guide to their lore/concept and more about the members. I got into ateez just 4 months ago but they are already my no1 artists on every music platform. Not only because of the sound of the music but also because I feel welcomed by their lyrics (which are partly written by two members Mingi & Hongjoong) but also their personalities. They always show support to other races, sexualities and genders. Before I start with their lore I wanna tell you some basic things. Ateez is a 8 member group under KQ Entertainment (not KO 😂). The members are Seonghwa, Hongjoong (leader/captain), yunho, yeosang, san, mingi, wooyoung & jongho. Their name ateez has two meanings. 1. a teenager who can do everything from A to Z 2. Dimension A & Dimension Z However let's start with their story, which you already mentioned. The storyline is quite complicated so I hope you understand me even with my broken english. Each member has their own little prestory For example Hongjoong has no family left and lives in a hut alone, yunho lost his brother due an accident, yeosang never experienced freedom, san never settled at one place bc of his parents work and jongho wanted to become a basketball player but because of an accident he can't do it anymore. So every member struggles with their own life. Next to the members there are also some other important characters. - Halateez, the black pirates. They are versions of ateez members just in another dimension who fight their government - android guardians. Some guardians who catch everyone who protested against the government - left eye. An old man living at a refuse dump - grimes siblings. Twins who also live in the dimension of halateez - Henry Jo. Leader of an organisation called 'sciensalvar' who tries to get the cromer. But what is the cromer? The cromer is the hourglass you saw at the end of the deja vu musicvideo. With the help of the cromer the boys are able to travel between the dimensions whenever there is a fullmoon. One day hongjoong was dreaming of his halateez version who gave him the cromer and suddenly disappeared again. When he woke up the cromer was with him in the room. (The ateez boys had a serious fight before that happened but when he received the cromer the boys came back and the fight was forgotten) While they inspected the cromer they suddenly traveled through the dimensions. some weird creatures showed up there so the boys ran away still processing what happened. On the run, wooyoung tripped but was safed by the grimes siblings who took them to a safe spot. However the cromer got lost during their run. Later the boys find out they are in another dimension where the government is pretty strict and forbid music and art. In that dimension some group in black with fedoras who call themselves the black pirates fought against the government but got locked up. (In the Answer, Say My Name & Deja Vu mv you can see halateez and ateez together) I could now explain the whole story of what happened during their journey of saving halateez but most important is that during their mission yeosang gets locked up in on of the Glass prisons (say my name mv & ode to joy performance) and some time travel stuff happens where yunho has to witness the death of his brother again. Since guerilla now the boys are fighting against the government and before/during bouncy they were on their run each seperated into two groups. - hongjoong & mingi joined bandits and are dealing with chili peppers - yunho & jongho are running an illegal car repair shop and have a fake police badge - san & wooyoung live in a truck, san an illegal boxer and wooyoung his manager - Yeosang & Seonghwa joined a biker gang They live like this for 6 months till they meet again and k!ll that weird white guardian thing (during bouncy, but you can also see him during the answer mv) There is even more to explain for example the prestige school (end of guerilla & some scenes in bouncy) but we still are clueless about a lot of things. The whole story I wrote above was told by story booklets, mv scenes, their kingdom performances and comeback promotions. But we still have so much more to understand not only by the scenes we see but also their lyrics are somehow connected. My favourite commections are: "I wanna feel alive, don't wanna stay in the dark" - cyberpunk "I'm ready for the dark, I'm ready for this world" - this world By the way every end scene of the mv is always spoiling the instrumental of their next titletrack/comeback. Okay I think I wrote enough now😂 but if you need some more recommendations: - Cyberpunk (amazing performance, dance, vocals and the song is epic) - Answer (till now one of my fav songs and mv) - Turbulence (if you are interested in deep lyrics and breathtaking vocals together with really good rap you should try it) - Take Me Home (again an amazing underrated bside with a amazing performance) - HALAZIA (honestly the only comeback till now I don't understand regarding their storyline but I love the song itself, and BEAT CHANGES) - Wonderland Kingdom Performance (believe me even you already heard the song, the performance is next level.) - The Real (beat changes again and my absolute favourite song together with bouncy)

yes, they have story line.. they usually put a hint/ snippet of their next song/ story at the end of the title track MV, that's why there's part that seems not connected with the whole MV at the end of it

Best Group for me. And basically they only thing keeping me still tied to kpop. They're so incredible. I love them. ❤

So... I'm an army and I'm not really interested in k-pop. I listen to a lot of different music, various genres and many artists but k-pop groups never really done it for me. I gave them a few chances, checked out a few artists and songs, some of them are fine but never got me hooked. Never checked out Ateez before either and I never had an interest in them, so I wanted to just skip this video. However, due to hearing and reading about all the drama that happened I came here to check out rude comments that appeared here, apparently. But all I could see were positive comments from atinys (atinies?) and some armies that like Ateez as well. These comments about this group, positive and informative, made me interested in giving them a chance and so I watched the video with our lovely human Tribe Loui. Had a lot of fun, 2 of the songs are going to my playlist (Guerrilla and Deja Vu). I don't see myself diving into them but I'll definitely give them more listens on various occasions and I'm in on Loui's journey with Ateez. So just wanted to pinpoint that all that little drama actually did something good - made me and probably a few more people interested in a new group. And what made me do this was positivity from Ateez's fans and Tribe Loui's enjoyable video.

So glad you found Ateez they’re truly one a kind and is the group that got me into kpop. My first and last group fr

im a atiny (ateez fan) and damn this guys are so incredible!! they are amazing performes, their live vocals are insane, facial expressions on point, looore, good songs as fuck, everything!! im glad that u like and i hope see more ateez content here ❤

8 members in Ateez. “They always say 8 makes one team “

Yeah.. why ateez is so special? Because they're unique and different from another kpop boy group😍 I used to be army but now I support Ateez, they deserve the world🎉

very rare case of a first reaction being both extremely entertaining and catching so many little details!

ateez is such an amazing group, genuinely NEVED disappoint with their music so i’m SO happy to see you react to them

I love Ateez!! I saw them back in November and the energy was out of this world!

I love when black people discover ATEEZ lol such a vibe I hope you enjoy your journey w them I think you’ll love them (:

he reacted to them once and never reacted to them again 😔💔💔

super cute funfact: wooyoung and yeosang were bighit (bts company) trainees and wooyoung left bighit (even though it's his dream company) for yeosang and told him that they would fail together and succeed together

I discovered Ateez while diving into Stray Kids (they did some collabs for the show Kingdom and remain friends) theirbperformances blew me away and now they're one of my ults.

His reaction on hongjoong raps in deja vu 😭😭😭😭 I hope you enjoy listening to ateez

Just gonna put it out there but I always felt Ateez was music for black people. Not saying it's only for us, but it's music black people gravitate to. We like music that gets you hyped up and they definitely do that. I'm BTS for life but Ateez have found a special place in my heart. I do hope you react to more of them 😊

He said he was looking for an eargasm, seems like he got that lmao. Also, thank you for reacting to our boys honestly, i had so much fun seeing someone new discover Ateez. Here's the basics about them for now. Take your time tho, this Group has a lot of lore and information. They come from a small company and are basically legendary to the upcoming groups in k-pop. Even though, they are young themselves. They have only been in the industry almost five years and have changed the game. There's 8 members and ALL are incredible Performers, vocalists/rappers & dancers. They are called the "Standard of Performance in K-pop". There's only 1 English Speaker(he's still Korean), but the members try to learn English. Guerilla MV example; The oldest- with the motorbike in the elevator is Seonghwa (pronounced Song wha), he's a vocalist, insane performer and kinda like a care taker to the group (we love him), he's also a lowkey rapper. Hongjoon- the Captain, he's the one with cruella hair do (Lol) he started the song (guerilla) with the rap(Ateez & Atiny don't call him Leader). He writes, produces for Ateez and leads the group. (Short and Intense) Yunho- Lead Dancer (love his movements), Performer and Vocalist (very stable even when doing choreo like wtf) (he's our big puppy and the tallest at 6 feet). He was in the room with the tvs in guerilla. Yeosang- (dirty blond with the yellow jacket) hes a Visual but also a unique (Deep and soothing) Vocalist, Performer (stares into your soul and is so stunning), likes to be called a doberman lol. Jumps in the background saying "taki taki". Mingi- Rapper (upside down doing the rap with deep rapper voice) Writes with Hongjoon and an absolutely dirty Performer ugh. He looks like a bad ass, is only a badass when performing (lol no hate, hes just a soft boi) San- (the blond with the bag and on the tv) Vocalist, Dancer, Performer and Part of the Demon Line. (u will see why,) Boy is insane, always with Wooyoung for the choreo and got that fierce eyes look. Woo young (pronounced oo young)- (leads the dance a few times in guerilla and choreo with San) dark hair with the baggy hoodie, he's a Dancer, Performer, Vocalist. (Rebellious but loyal) Jongho- the best 4th Gen Vocalist (I said what i said), Performer and youngest (he's the one belting out vocals) and is our haribo gummy bear. Boy is an outstanding dancer and vocalist. Our fandom is call Atiny, which is a combination of Ateez and Destiny. Thank you for the reaction. K-pop is known for lots of pleasing visuals but Ateez didn't rely on that, especially when they first debuted. They also switch up genres a lot, rock, punk, sea shantys (lol) even softer songs. Hope you like their songs and check out their albums or past songs, even if in your free time. Also, thank u to the atinys and armys that were welcoming and remember Atinys; humble & kindness.

The best 4th gen group guys>>>>>

The ending parts that you might be a little confused about are part of their storylines and lore that are really interesting!

Army and Atiny right here SOOOOOO GLAD you're reacting to my favourite groups thank youuuuuuuuuuuuu

No two Ateez songs sound alike, but all of their music sounds like Ateez

I am not a huge fan of their music but i can admit that they are monster performers ngl. They give their all on the stage and are a delight to watch. Ive watched their shows a coupe to times and they are so funny 😂. They seem like very nice people too! I love that you reacted to them ngl. They are a gem.

your enthusiasm is infectious!! i loved this reaction and would love to see you check out more Ateez! They're truly an amazing group. don't listen to the people being weird, it's your channel and you're obviously allowed to listen to and like whatever music you want.

ateez has a fantastic discography, awesome personalities and all their content is entertaining!! their storyline is awesome too... def check it out!

TL has put in a lot of time and dedication into watching BTS music/vids, Run BTS episodes and fan made vids. You can't say he's using BTS for clout with that kind of input he's given. Honestly the guy gets so hyped up and happy. Let's not forget his first reaction was Jin's Astronaut without knowing he was from BTS.

I'm watching purely to support Loui (and if I discover a nice song along the way - great!). I'm not a multi stan personally and I know where a lot of fears for some army in the comments are coming from, I've seen it happen a lot too. HOWEVER, Loui has more than proven that he goes into any reaction with a sincere heart and gives his honest thoughts on things instead of doing the easy thing for clicks. Some people here might be new to the channel so I urge you to watch all of his earlier reactions (including to other goups) to get the full picture. Being an army also does not mean not giving other music a chance ever, I still listen to other kpop songs or in general other music without stanning the artists. And if Loui ends up stanning multiple groups that is fine too! There is a difference between someone who genuinely like 2-4 groups and someone who "likes" everything kpop.

i have been an atiny since 2019 and we still have not found out they’re whole storyline, there are many hour long theory videos though and lots of them are very good they do have a very complex storyline which is so interesting, also since you are curious the leader of the group hongjoong (who also writes the lyrics and composed some of the beats to they’re songs) said he gets lots of inspiration from the lgbtq community, they have told they’re trans fans in fan calls that they should not worry about how they identify infront of them and they will love and respect them no matter what, just today ateez uploaded a video about they upcoming photo book and added an effect with hearts swirling around one of the members (mingi) and on the hearts where different pride flags including trans bisexual and lesbian, even hongkong on live one time said that he sometimes thinks gender isn’t important to him when feeling attraction, heiß gehört made a character that now has plushies and is a design on merchandise which is non-bionary and when at a concert fand held a pride flag that said yeasong loves non-binary people and he waved smiled and put a thumbs up to it, ateez said a lot of they’re inspiration comes from artists like joey badass and rhianna, the members often paint just they’re pinky nail to support children in abusive households of all races and genders, hongjoong made himself clothing that has bobypins crossed on it meaning he is a safe place for people who are discriminated against, and made keychain needs he wear on his bags often in the colors of the blm movement and the pride colors, they all have stayed in interviews they love and support everyone no matter they’re race or gender, and the fact i could keep going about this topic with the other members as well is probably why i think the point is across, ateez are very open minded and supportive people and they have helped a lot of they’re fans through hard times they are so special to atiny (they’re fandom) and supportive of any and everyone, so i hope you would feel happy if you do decide you would like to learn more about them as they really are amazing people

I really appreciate you to react to them. Ateez is so talented, they produced their own musics too. They started from 0 as well bcs they were coming from small company and considered underrated. They needs more recognition bcs they all are so talented and amazing. I personally hope you will continue supporting them bcs they will have their comeback on 1st of December❤️ Thank you! I really enjoyed your reaction to Ateez✨

i immediately clicked seeing ateez 😭😭 looking forward to more of their reactions, but no pressure of course

ATEEZ is definitely one of my ults. I started kpop with BTS so they will always have a special place in my heart. You should definitely react to ATEEZs Symphony n.9 performance and also their 2019 MAMA performance, they actually mixed wonderland with BTS blood sweat and tears it was amazing. Thank you again for your reaction it was great

I gotta say, I love when reactors have the ability to make me feel like I’m reacting to my favorite songs/groups for the first time and that’s exactly what this video did to me. Immediate subscribe, love the energy sm🙏 thanks for reacting to them and I’m glad you enjoyed!!

to answer your question, they do have a very vast, fleshed-out fictional universe. their music videos end with a glimpse/spoiler of their next comeback, and there are little minute details that you have to pay attention to. it's impossible to condense their storyline into a comment, so i'll just mention some relevant keywords: pirates, time travel, inter-dimensional travel, alternate realities, corrupt tyrannical governments, anarchy, etc

Deja vu is my absolute favorite song I’m never not in the mood for it

im only a casual listener of ateez but theyv got good songs, they help me keep awake at work 😂

Bro. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE seeing someone react to Wonderland for the first time. That, Say My Name and Halazia are my TOP TOP TOP, hypest of hype Ateez jams, and it always brings new energy back into a HYPE song I've been listening to for years. I love this. Please also checkout Say My Name and Halazia if you havent already. (I see this was posted 8 mo ago, so I'm omw to your channel now to see what else you've got.) Welcome to the Atiny fandom, we're happy to have you. ❤🏴‍☠️⏳️

I'm only a casual listener to Ateez but first thing that comes to my mind when somebody mentions this group is constantly changing beat and Jongho's unbelievable high notes (plus his ability to split apples with bare hands while singing). I would say that they are definitely good choice for Tribe Loui's exploring :D

ARMYs don't mind reactors who react to different groups. It's your channel after all and you can react to whatever you want. ARMYs are just wary bc it often happens that once a reactor starts reacting to other groups, they have no trouble throwing BTS under the bus to defend another group. However, the reactions I've seen from you prove to me that you are not one of those people. Also, you can't deny talent and even though I only listen to ATEEZ casually, it's very clear that they are a talented group of boys who work hard to put out good content for their fans. On top of that, they write their own music which is always a plus for me.

ateez is my favorite group and this has to be the most perfect first time reaction I've ever seen to them 😂 guerrilla and wonderland had you crying bro 😭

ATEEZ!!!!!!!!!! We love ATEEZ in this household.

So glad you loved these songs. They're impressive for SO many reasons, from how they came together to what they've done since. ATEEZ honors their seniors, too; they covered BTS with BTS in the audience for their first awards show appearance (whaaat!? who does that? AND included Wonderland in the song medley), and have also covered Boy with Luv and ON. The member who was in the chains in Wonderland is a huge ARMY, so people hating on others for liking people who like their faves? I don't even understand. ANYWAY, they do bring everything to the table, and even if it's not your vibe, they have no-skip albums, amazing variety content, and the most incredible live performances. So dive in, enjoy, and you'll definitely find some ATINY to swim with you!

Omggg inception was nextttttt

I love how watching this all again through someone else’s eyes for the first time makes me realize just how amazing my ult group is 🙌

army to atiny pipeline is so real omg 🥹 i love both of them soo much

-yaaaaaaaas ATEEZ. I hope you enjoy because they have great music and it’s a whole different feel and sound than anything you’ve heard in kpop.

People telling this guy he’s ok to listen to other groups is crazy. Y’all act like he needs permission. I know its not only army doing this but… y’all don’t run this channel.

Ateez are amazing performers! Watch their dance practices! Saw them live in Atlanta last year. Sob glad you reacted to them!❤️❤️

I respect ATEEZ not only because they make good songs but also because they respect BTS. They themselves said that BTS paved the way and they are trying to follow this path.. BTS is their biggest role model and they are armys like us😁 i am biggest army here since 2016 and I also like ATEEZ because I saw in them the energy that BTS had when they were their age. ATEEZ, as BTS, started everything from scratch and I think it is appreciated💜💜 ONLY ateez can match bts energy and standard idc

Losing your absolute shit over Ateez is the only way!! LMAO I loved the video, and the setup is so unique i don't think i've seen anyone's like this before lol

I just subscribed to you because I loved your reaction to Ateez. BTS used to be my ult group until I discovered Ateez nd now they my ult. But I still love BTS because thats how I got into kpop back in 2018. Like BTS and ATEEZ are just so amazing in way it just makes you feel at home.

I LOVE Ateez!! Them and BTS are my ults!! Ateez are a very experimental group, and their Performances are on a whole other level!! I hope you continue with them, maybe even doing album reviews!! They similarly started from a small company like BTS. Part of their appeal I think is the fact that they are Underdogs!!

ATEEZ is absolute fire. Their music is experimental and covers a wide range of genres, they are heavily involed in their creation process, they have a deep and interesting lore with an involved storyline, and their overarching concept is interdimensional space pirates. Who doesn't love pirates?? I'm an ARMY and and ATINY and I love their music for similar reasons even though they are vastly different. As a fun note, ATEEZ are all huge fans of BTS but one memeber (Wooyoung) might just be the biggest ARMY out there. lol I'm super excited that you are digging into them!

Tysm for taking the time to react to ateez!! If you ever get the chance could you react to their song called WIN 🤍🙏🏼
