I personally am not boycotting but I completely respect the decision of those who do, that is to say I still cannot agree, but it was very childish that people were disrespectful just because you boycotted, everyone can choose to support a song and I understand that They boycott them with all of Charlie's songs, including his other collaborations, right? Anyway, I respect your decision not to watch the MV, you are one of my favorite reactors so I hope that in the next Comeback you can enjoy what skz has prepared for us ❤️

I'm sorry you had to do this video to explain yourself. You should do what your moral tells you to, this is totally okay I'm glad you're being honest with yourself and I love to follow your content!

I’m confused? Didn’t JK collab with Charlie Puth? 😢.

I'm sorry for the messages you received, some people just don't know about boundaries . People these days just don't know what respect others points of view is anymore. If you choose to boycott, please don't attack anyone, stop dehumanizing people, stop using the z* word without thinking, and stop discrediting the work of the kids. And if you're not boycotting, stop engaging in fights, stop being ignorant, look for other ways to help, and stop harrasing people. Also, you're not a bad person, you're not a z*, you're not disgusting, you're not shitty. We all have our own ways to help, maybe someone doesn't belive in boycotting a song will help, and they prefer to share gofundmes links, to go outside and protest, etc. LET THEM BE! If you think it will help YOU DO YOU! But stop fighting, that doesn't help anyone! Talk with each other, use your OWN criteria, don't follow others opinions just because you're afraid of social violence. Find a common ground and unite! We all live in the same world, we all know what is happening. This matter isn't black & white, theres a big gray spectrum. Y'all should realize that, and respect that.

dude i respect You should not feel uncomfortable for 1- being on the right side of history(free palestine), 2- having a moral compass cuz charlie is bad and we should not support bad people!!!! and i feel the same about the hybe thing i am not Bts fan but i'm an old carat, even tho they are not directly under hybe like BTS but still i get your point if Seventeen did a collab with a zio i would never even think about listening to it ... company's needs to know that fans will not tolerate this behavior so they'll think twice before collabing with jerks!!

Thank you so much

I think you gave a clear explanation. It's your channel. You do you.

YESSSS THANK YOU FOR REACTING TO ITZYYY

So HYBE is problematic too. But he'll continue listening to BTS. But an SKZ collab needs to be boycotted. Can anyone explain the double standards?

I've a question don't get me wrong I know about the genocide and palestine.. I know a lot of artists are bad people and support and do a lot of sh** but what did charlie do in his career to make everyone hate him especially him? Like why he's that bad? Idk know much about him

Incredibly glad that you upload and do what you yourself are comfortable with! Its honestly sad that you get these reactions, 'cause I always enjoy your video's. If you do not want to listen to it than that should be fine cause its your choise. Just keep doing what you yourself are comfortable with ❤.

love how there are still people in these comments attacking you 🙄 god forbid you stand your ground when it comes to your *OWN, PERSONAL* morals. also, it’s very clear he’s not attacking stray kids themselves. i believe they didn’t have a choice in who they collab with. pls continue to stick to your values ❤ and as always, free 🇵🇸

It’s like how people at Starbucks support Palestine even though their company doesn’t. There are always good people who unfortunately work for bad companies. Capitalism is the driving force of companies after all

I understand and you gotta do what you gotta do but you said it’s different with BTS when it’s actually not because there was also a collab between them and Charlie Puth……… so I accept your opinion and there’s crap on both sides…. But consistency is important.

Support you completely … sorry you had to do this… but your message is a valuable one and one I hope will reach people who react without thinking or pondering on what’s really going on… but sadly d t suppose it will… Keep on going 💜🇨🇦

I didn't know about some of these about Charlie.. wow.. And it's even more undrestanding now. Stays will respect your decision. You're one of my favorite youtubers and will be.

It's true to say everyone has to be able to live with their decisions and be able to sleep at night. You stand by your convictions and understand a lot of people don't see past their own lives and focus. More than likely the majority of people that are complaining, regardless of age, still have an immature and selfish outlook on life.

I've been the same too since the beginning with not caring who does what with the song. I liked the little clips we got and watched the intro and was feally excited to see what the Kids came up with. And being from the US and this being their debut here, able to listen to it on the radio (hopefully soon), talk shows, more involvement here etc. It's something i wanted to go over well. I see both sides and people are able to choose what they want to do. But bullying other STAY's and the Kids is unacceptable. To clearify again, i like the song, but that doesn't mean i support what that side is saying/doing. I think the best course of action now is no more collabs. I hate it, but i don't want to see the fighting of STAY's anymore

I love skz but I don't like Charlie s personality . I still support Skz even tho I avoid that single.

What even.. this people who send you messages are literal kids, if they're real ones they have a chance to grow, and if not, well, it's a pity. It's your choice and it's totally fine, I personally would feel myself hypocrite avoiding song, because in my opinion it's actually do nothing, and Puth just said stupid sh*t, he physically didn't do anything (well, as I know) so he is better that a lot of people, just disgusting being. For me it is just music collab with smn I don't care about and don't like, so I listen to it. But for a lot of people it may be personal, so judging them cause they feel uncomfortable about collab is inhuman actually...

FREE 🇵🇸

Don’t think you did something wrong because you are right Me too i don’t feel uncomfortable with skz and bts because they have mouths and minds to think if they want And right we can’t love and support people who don’t care about genocide Palestine will be free And finally people can’t hate because you don’t agree this is your opinion and it’s a good opinion and you are standing with the right team ❤️

People should respect other people's boundaries , if other people wanted to be shits go for it , but it's also a right to choose to distance yourself from it

Aydin I love you but you are absolutely doing a double standard by listening to bts. If you don’t wanna support people who are for Israel your support shouldn’t go towards just people but company’s also. Every time you listen to bts you make Hybe more money. There is a reason pro Palestine people boycotted company’s like Starbucks etc. you don’t have to listen to Charlie puth by any means but you have to be consistent with your beliefs on Israel vs Palestine now that you’ve made your opinion public otherwise your committing hypocrisy

So you should delete RM's song... because he works with a Zionist like Scooter???

i’m sorry that you had to address this to the ppl that clearly don’t have a moral compass when understanding the severity of this collab. i too feel uncomfortable with charlieP association with this song, i simply cannot “separate the art from the artist”. bad people don’t deserve praise. thank you for acknowledging why it’s important for this boycott to happen. not supporting this collab doesn’t make you any less of a stay PERIOD 🫶🏼

This is what is called double opinions. Because you have to boycott all the songs of BTS because their Ceo is the Zionist scooter who returns big profits from their songs

The simple point is that no one should ever be upset with you for not doing something that makes you uncomfortable. It is unfortunate that you had to create a video defending your personal feelings instead of some viewers having enough respect to accept your own comfort.

I'm sorry you have to explain even the most obvious situations. I understand very well what you mean. For example, I live in Turkey. There was a huge earthquake here. And some of my favorite idols donated money. And one of the people who donated money, advertised an Israeli brand product and people started lynching him. But in fact, that person did not do this because he was a bad person. They are under the yoke of companies in most decisions. We can understand this from their inability to defend themselves even under great provocations, and from the fact that they had to remain silent while being repeatedly harassed by saesangs.

armchair activist? is that such a thing to shame ppl for tho? also, why should being an activist be shamed?

I knew I could trust you Aydin, morals over kpop always

I respect your opinion and am sorry you're getting hate from both sides. I too dislike Puth and honestly wish he wasn't associated with the song. I don't think SKZ were aware of his problematic history, nor do they have the contractual freedom to speak up and refuse to collaborate with who the company tells them to work with FELIX spoke on Gaza and jype took the video down :( My fear is that what this attempted boycott is going to tell them is that if they change from the 'SKZ Formula' and do a new style, that we, as fans won't support their growth in to a more mainstream market.

regardless of my position, if you did something and later realized that you were uncomfortable, then it's okay to cancel your action. Thank you for not turning your back on the skz for this collaboration🕊

Thank you for speaking up about this. I am also doing my version of boycotting of certain music and other things due to my own morals and beliefs, even though I have been ARMY for more than half a decade. It is so disheartening seeing how quickly people tell you to unstan and bully you for it. For what? For sticking to my morals? For wanting things I love such as BTS to NOT be associated with these ugly and useless people in positions of power? Absolutely not! I know better (and in my heart, I know groups like BTS know better as well). And, even if there were not these complex issues attached, no one is obligated to listen or watch anything they are uncomfortable with. You can dislike certain songs, music, and collabs. Even as a fan! It is ridiculous that people even got mad at that and are trying to use the horribile ongoing situations to essentially fuel "fanwars".

it’s actually mad how many stays have actually turned out to be full on zionists etc. when this collab came out… it’s so nice to hear from a creator that they are educated on the matter and act according to their own morals.. some people just have a hard time understanding that the boycotting etc. is coming from a place of love, not hate towards the kids. thank you so much for this video :)

Thank you so much for bringing light to this situation. I actually had no clue that Charlie Puth was this problematic, I admit I have unfortunately viewed the song, however thanks to you on sharing information, I have chosen to not stream the song from now on. Thanks for the upload and the new knowledge!

Sorry this happened to you friend :((

Hype Working with scooter Do you even know who he is? I won't talk any more.😂😂

Last comment but armys literally listened to every song off “on the street” except lock/unlocked bc of Benny blanco they need to have a backbone

who knows, tell me pls what the situation is with the hybe and Palestine.. This is the first time I've heard about it🤔

I can’t believe you had to make a video like this because ppl can’t let you have your own moral compass 💀💀

Charlie Puth is a literal Zionist and he’s a sexual predator ppl need to be serious this is completely different 💀💀 like after finding out I haven’t listened to left and right since I found out

Thanks for being honest, I can’t say I didn’t see this coming but I am not upset at all. I’m sorry people don’t know how to keep their mouths shut and just let you do your own things.

yesss!! xdz r my personal favs! If you ever react to them again u should for sure watch their hellavator and tomboy covers

seeing people get impressed and become new fans of XH makes me so happy and proud of them AAAAAAAA IM SO HAPPY OTHER PEOPLE ARE DISCOVERING THEM (no more gatekeeping for now) 🥰🩹 so proud of this group and this fandom

Please upload more Xdinary Heroes content <3 My bias is Jungsu :3

Thanks for your reaction. BTS in the past has explored psychological themes and obviously this has led to processes of self-observation, reflection and healing. Here I think Namjoon explores the idea of ​​the "Person", the mask we wear before society where we fulfill the role that others expect of us The meaning of the concept of BTS album "Map of the Soul" has to do with four versions related to analytical psychology of the book "The map of the soul according to Jung": Persona, Anima, Self and Shadow. Remembering that Jung was one of the most popular psychoanalysts of the 20th century and founder of depth psychology, which is mainly based on what exists between consciousness and the unconscious. Without going into so much detail about these 4 aspects of being according to Jung... The Anima is the feminine aspect present in the collective unconscious of men and the Animus is the masculine aspect present in the collective unconscious of women. In other words, we all have feminine and masculine energy, although one prevails over the other in each individual. So BTS "Map of the Soul" albums seek to generate a journey towards the encounter with ourselves and the acceptance of the "I" among them the integration of our polarity, be it feminine or masculine. Namjoon is a deep artist, he is philosophical so it seems to me that it is a self-reflection about finding himself. The Anima is usually associated with deep emotionality and the force of life itself. In a way, the anima represents a living image of the soul and the spiritual contents of the person. For Jung, the "Person" acts as an intermediary with the social world and the "Anima" with the inner world. Notice how in one moment he is face to face with the woman who is in the same situation as him and then the camera focuses on Namjoon... it is no longer him but the woman, that is, his Anima... he finds himself, see inside. And if you remember Jimin's "Like crazy" video... there is a moment in which he also meets a girl, that is, with his Anima (in the choreography when Jimin sings that he sees his reflection... in that part he dances alone with one of his dancers, facing each other) and in his album Face he also confronts himself, stops fleeing from reality, it is a confession of the phase he went through emotionally during the pandemic and therefore the representation of his Anima with the dancer This is my interpretation of what I understood from the video and based on other BTS works Regards from Mexico 💜

I dont know how to explain it but i love and hate this guy at the same time😭

You wanted more Seungmin sass? On his Live someone wanted him to speak English and he (in English) said he doesn’t know English, sorry. With a straight face. It was awesome.

The Stray Kids to ATEEZ pipeline is so real
