K-POP doesn't suck, the community that tries to make it toxic do. Most groups are even friends! Yet fans can't go one day without creating unnecessary "fan-wars". For example I'm a huge BLINK (BLACKPINK's fanbase), you said TWICE is the biggest group and technically it's true! I think that we mustn't forget that each group brought something new and unique to the K-POP genre and hating on each other is just a waste of energy, I mean why spread so much negativity when you could be jamming to these insane songs!! The girls that sang in this, from (G)I-DLE are insanely talented, their entire group is.

Fun fact all of the characters had diffrent Singers in each songs except Akali, she was voiced in every song by korean rapper Jeon Soyeon leader and main rapper of kpop group called (G)I-dle and right now the Best female rapper in kpop, league community loved her raps as Akali so much that they didn't want any other person rapping as Akali And Yes they did real performance in 2018 for league of legend worlds championship, they were planning to do that also in 2020 but because of covid they couldn't

I think a lot of people underestimate how big LoL is in Korea. Over 10% of the total population at some point had a registered account for LoL. In comparison for Eastern Europe and Western Europe it's around 1.2-1.4% for North America its less than 1%. Imagine if 12% of Korea's population plays LoL what percentage of people around 15-25 play. Riot was already experimenting with music for LoL and was very well received. It might seem random to some that they tried something like this but the reality is that they were making similar things earlier with Pentakill (a virtual metal band) and single tracks like Get Jinxed. KDA Popstars was the perfect release in every sense. It came at a time when Kpop Girl Groups were a massive phenomenon around the globe with groups like Blackpink and Twice but it was also a completely new and refreshing concept for the people that actively listened to Kpop at the time.

As a fan of bts and ruffsenpai, it hurts. You can’t judge bts without listening to their songs, I couldn’t care less about people hating on bts without knowing them.

I think the drama and hate around Seraphine (the long ponytail hair girl) is because when she was released, most people thought she didn't really belong to the LoL universe, cause she didn't have a cohesive lore and because of her aesthetics. It was like she was created just because of KDA, for promoting it and stuff. Also, in league there's a skin type called Ultimate skin, which is the most expensive type of skin and only 4 (i think) characters out of ~160 had it, and Seraphine's first skin upon release was an Ultimate skin themed around KDA. I, personally, like her. I think that although her style doesn't fit with the rest of the characters, that makes sense because she is a popstar in the lore. In real life, popstars usually wear weird stuff in shows also that you wouldn't see a "normal" person wearing.

There was also the fact that at her launch in her lore she could hear the voices of Skarners people suffering in the Hextech Crystals she uses and she just kept using them. She could “hear the music of people’s souls” , but as an interesting side effect she can communicate with the Brackern souls inside hextech crystals. If you didn’t know, hextech crystals are powered by the souls of Skarner’s almost extinct race of the Brackern. So Seraphine could talk to her crystal and hear them. The lore originally implied that she could hear their suffering but instead of doing literally anything to help out the Brackern souls, she just fucking shoves it into a hovercraft and consumes its soul essence so she can float above the ground and play music. So in the original lore she came off as not very good.

It wasn't exactly that she was a popstar on canon lore tho, like, that's good if you want but... Why would I want to play with a zero influence on the bigger picture?

Sing them... Like... Why? Xd her lore wasn't good and she didn't fit on Piltover aesthetic wether she was a pop star or no (Imagine Dragons on Arcane looked all right cuz they made them fit onto the aesthetic of Zaun)

Drum Go Dum was Kai'sa's song. Bailey is the dancer, I believe she's also part of the choreo for Popstars. I think I remember hearing at some time that the original idea was that Riot wanted to animate Kai'sa doing the dance to Bailey's performance but they changed their mind, so that's why they're just flashing her face on the video. They decided that Bailey's dancing was cool enough. Also, she was 16 when she performed that. She just turned 18 this year.

KDA had a couple of augmented reality performances on the worlds' stage. The league metal band, pentakill, though not as popular, had 3 albums and last year had an hour long virtual motion capture concert. If that's your cup of tea I would highly recommend it.

They performed Pop stars live, but I don't know if they did any other performances together Edit: And to answer your last question: BTS stands for Bangtan Sonyeondan, which translates into Bulletproof Boy-scouts. It is supposed to be a symbol for blocking criticism and stereotypes aimed at younger generations like bullets, which is honestly so wholesome.

Not to be mean but I think you guys would understand things better if you watch them in the correct order and if you bother to read and listen. I feel like Ahri's song was pretty simple to get. Plus you thought Evelyn's video was about Ahri, which could be because you didn't watch things in the correct order but you also had to have ignore the name of the song.

So an additional factor in the views thing is that the first 3 videos you watched were apart of the individual K/DA ep that was specifically just music by itself. All of the other songs(including The Baddest which was the announcement vid for the ep) came out as either pseudo or actual songs to promote the LoL World Championships, and as such got more views naturally as people were gearing up for the finals.

BTS has become the standard for music groups.

RIOT makes the music, Fortiche (France) makes the animation (for most), Two Koreans kpop singers are involved in several of the songs (Soyeon and Miyeon from (G)I-DLE).

cant wait for these guys to react to league music videos

An interesting fact about the creation of KDA is that they were created by the same team responsible for Arcane. The series was facing serious post-production problems so the team created the KDA group and the POPSTARS music video to keep the Fortiche studio open and prevent the studio from having financial problems. They didn't expect that KDA would be so successful and that the Skins line would sell so much.

Hopefully you'll also react to the full opening ceremonies .

I used to like watching you guys... Just a question though. Because I wonder, before badmouthing bts, have you actually watched anything of theirs? I looked on your channel and didn't see a single thing. Watch your mouth before you put your foot it in, yeah?

how does hman do it tho. i thought its memes at first but he actually manages to get things wrong every video... sometimes very very big things. its impressive honestly xD love your reactions guys

When this video was release Bailey Sok was 16 years old and she is the dancer not singer and this is kai'sa's song

Not H man confusing Kai'sa and Akali. Drum Go Dum was Kai'sa's video. The reception to that one was not as good as the previous ones because it wasn't animated and everyone was pretty much waiting to see what they would do with Kai'sa after Villain. And some people were let down that it was "just" a dance video.

So from G idle ( the kpop girl group) two girls are on Kda the rapper one her name is Soeyon and the fox girl is voiced from Miyeon. And the other song with Twice (a 9 member kpop girl group) on that song basically all of them sang there.

Fun Fact: The music video for Pop/Stars was produced by Fortiche, the same animation company behind Arcane. It was a gig to keep the company going while the fate of Arcane was still unclear with the Riot head honchos.

Can't wait for the other music videos

Yeah they actually performed for Worlds Final. It was in 2017 / 2019 and True Damage for 2018. Y'all should definitely check it out, hope you can post it too

Interesting fact about Kda popstars the last song with most views, that was made by fortiche (the one responsiblefor Arcane) during an issue in production of arcane too keep the animators employed. It was revealed in the arcane documentary

The first 4 videos where suppose to be a single for each member with their own animated video but covid happen and they didn't had time to complete them so they used what they have to make what you saw :D

Making fun of other music taste is not wise. People have different music of taste. It is like if I said you all are ugly, even it is true but it not wise. You can said you don't like some music genre, some singer, but you can not making fun of it.

the official members are just 4 but they included more artists in each single.

" I think it's Akali " WHAT!? 🤣 It's KAI'SA Lmaoo Cmonnnnn mannnnnn. And as another has mentioned, the person dancing is Bailey Sok. The song is basically Kai'sa's dance song.

Evelyn is a Demon succubus that kills for lust, Ahri is a Ninetailed fox seductress, Akali is a Ninja assassin, and Kaisa is a void markswoman then seraphine is the new one which is a musical superstar that is a support

you guys should do one on the worlds live ceremonies. They are insane.

As for behind the scenes and 'making of' content.. G-Idle have a few videos of their part in making it, the riot ones are more formed around the behind the scenes of the live stages I think they have a full behind the scenes of pop/stars Edit: Pop/Stars live stage - Worlds 2018, true damage in 2019, KDA live again in 2020 (with only Seraphines voice actor present due to covid restrictions).. And pentakill in 2017

Its actually crazy, as a league player myself i have never met any player who wouldn't remember a champions name, couldn't tell a champion from their frame/avatar/skin and a player who is so consistent on getting everything story and non story related stuff wrong. I don't remember the last time i actually hated hearing someone open their mouth. I believe he's a nice guy, but everytime he opens his mouth my brain exits. Truly a remarkable human being.

The outrage for Seraphine was that they included a champion to league without any lore or any background related to the world of runeterra

On drum go dum: the song was made to represent kaisa, and in the kda lore kaisa is the bands coreographer/dancer, wich is why they chose a real life dancer to represent it instead of an animation. I personally like that choice.

10:42 there is not a behind the scenes for kda, but there is for arcane it's called "bridging the rift" and it's great.

“Kda is a mix of liek 15 ppl” 😂 the amount of wrong information said in every 10 seconds in this is kinda insane.

It would be nice if y'all weren't just constantly talking over everything with the audio of the song so low.

They got progressive less views due to some factors: 1. The last vídeos are the characters' solo. 2. KZread views are lower everywhere, even pop artist, the only excepcions are probably Blackpink, BTS and some viral kpop mv. 3. Popstars and More are more appeciated songs in general followed by Villain and Baddest

K/DA's POP/STARS was animated by the same company hired to animate Arcane. Your fun fact of the day lol And of course POP/STARS was a viral hit, ending up at the top of the charts in most popular kpop songs that year. It started as just a song to promote the skin line they were releasing. Little did they know they'd create their most popular music to date. Edit: And yes, (G)I-DLE actually was a new kpop group the year that song released and were quickly rising in popularity so Riot clearly saw the potential there LOL The four original girls in the group are Soyeon (Akali) and Miyeon (Ahri) from I-DLE, Madison Beer (Evelynn), and Jaira Burns (Kai'sa). They were all brought back for the single "MORE" when they did K/DA's comeback (With Lexi who was featured as Seraphine). Then released the mini album that had individual character songs featuring some of the same artists but a lot of new ones as well.

i believe that the studio behind Arcane (aka Fortiche) were also the ones who animated the POP/STARS video as well! i had just found that out recently through watching the Arcane documentary that Riot put out a few days ago lol ^^;

You should check the live performances for World's, most of the league songs are for the World's Finals Ceremony ;)

Yes they do perform live. Show them popstars live at worlds

Lmao its actually funny how wrong Hman is about everything

would be great if it started chronologically. But still I still loved that you all reacted to this.

As other mentioned I don't think there's a lot of behind the scene for Kda but there is one video called "Dev doodles" where they discuss the production of pop stars (including that they made it kpop because the tournament was in Korea)

they are skins for the characters they are portraing in the videos , thats the whole point behind it , and made a music video for it , it got so popular that 2 years later they made a part 2 , with more songs too. they only performed once live at 2018 worlds championship

So kda have live performances for the league tournaments and I suggest you check out their first live performance cause it shows how big kda is and how sick the League is

Ahri’s a fox, the flashing pictures were Kai’sa, Evelynn is basically a succubus

Nani No Anime reacting to BTS when ? It would be fascinating to see that. You guys could be surprised actually, there are really talented Artists in that industry.

korean singers are korean lmao akali is GIDLE's jeon soyeon and ahri is GIDLE's miyeon

the problem with seraphine's social media is that it's EXCESSIVE how much she poses as a human. her instagram is full of real life pictures with her face edited onto whoever was originally in the photos and her twitter is talking about her (nonexistent) struggle with mental health, how far she's come from making music in her bedroom, etc. and it's WEIRD. there's a bunch of actual gameplay/lore reasons that people dislike her for as well but i'm not a league player so i don't know much, i just remember going through her socials when MORE first came out and seeing her cartoon self posing right next to a real ass cat 😭

the dancing video its because Kaisa (the member of the group what sings that song) its the dancer of the group, so they want do something diferent

The reason for the laundry bit is because the girl, ahri, has a skin in fame called popular, It was her solo debut popular outfit, and it's making reference too that skin, hence the hat and outfit in the basket

Imagine looking at a band and saying "how much porn is there of K/DA" yeah. That's like me saying to another person from the 90s "did you know there's porn of Garfield as a big breasted anthro?" yeah...but to say that watching KDA....is disrespectful to me.

My man just said "i dont like this "VIDEO"" at one of the best produced music videos of all time xD (oh and there was no repeating at all but the verse) bruh. xD

Pop Stars music video was made by the same animation studio that made Arcane and it was made to keep the studio busy while Arcane was put on hold.

The videography of K/DA songs in general, are top notch but what really blew my mind is that in "Popstars" the for the entire vid, the camera shots were pulling out the entire time without making it feel weird.

the first 4 songs u see are b sides form their mini album, and its all solo projects with lower budget, so they count as lyric videos and special clips

You could also watch the worlds opening ceremonys. It think KDA ist performing live in one.

KD/A litterally got one of my best friends into a leauge addiction xD

He says "I don't know" but keeps talking like he does.

The initial purpose of KDA was to promote LoL in a catchy way for the korean audience the year the Worlds were hosted by Korea. It's mostly a marketing idea. But it sold a lot of skins, and immediatly became it's own thing.

KDA has gone on tour and done a lot of league ceremony openings with crazy cgi as well.

They did perform live at one of the world championships. I forget which year.

The debut is always the largest because they attach ingame skins to each new themed song, so KDA songs, KDA skins!

The boy below without glasses who is supposed to know a little I think he doesn't know anything XD nv

There are some live performances on riots youtube account. You just need to search for Worlds Oppening Ceremony

Top left guy mange to talked through almost all the best parts. Again. How do you do it?

Basically KDA is a skin line of LOL which they made it into a Kpop group, The members are the 5 female champion of LOL which is KAISA,AKALI,AHRI, EVELYNN AND SERAPHINE. and Now KDA is also available in their new game WILDRIFT which is the mobile version of LOL

every day for 20 minutes of video 😔

Yeah in "Worlds 2020" they did a live concert with the singers and their KDA personas.

Pentakill next?

actually Riot Games has its own music label, they produce their own songs :P

I think the songs with only one of the kda stars have so much less views because those songs were released as an album and many people didn't catch that.

Please we need a league of legends jungle Video.

So incase you haven't been told since this video, the last video you watched kda popstars was animated by fortiche which is the same studio that animated Arcane! Which was a sad/happy accident. I feel like so many of us held the same belief as you in this video which was Riot just knew the formula and was throwing so much money around it was guaranteed success! But after the behind the scenes documentary of arcane we learned the only reason we got this music video was because Arcane was going so poorly in production that they needed a project to give to fortiche to keep them going while they fixed the problems with Arcanes script.

Well... since you went backwards in the time of the video releases then wouldn't you expect that a video released 4 years ago would have more views than a video released 2 years ago?

What cannot be argued that everything Riot does is TOP

Pretty sure the dancing girl is a former student from Matt steffani that you can see in his dance videos/tutorials even years ago

They performed while cosplaying the characters live on the Worlds stage

OH YES THEY DO PERFORM AT REAL LIFE

Villain character evelyn is demon, ahri is nine tails, drum goes dum is kaisa music video, baddest is akali music, more is their all video and seraphine is basicly celestial humanoid

there are live performances in worlds opening ceremonies.

On production on all this stuff, Riot seems to have a talent for subcontracting/cooperating with other studios. Arcane being the best example with Fortiche
