- This is a little cheesy for my tastes.

你怎麼能不對這個感到興奮？

♪ (industrial intro) ♪

這個對我來說有點油膩

- (FBE) So since we're approaching the end of 2017,

大學生對K-POP的反應！

we're going to listen to the mountain of comments

因為2017即將結束了

and show a selection of K-pop songs that came out this year.

我們有一大堆的留言

- Oh! Oh my god!

要我們選出幾首今年推出的K-POP歌曲給你們看

- I actually contributed in those comments of doing K-pop.

喔！我的天！

When the YouTubers reacted to K-pop way in the beginning,

我其實也參與了推薦K-POP的留言

and it just started from there. And I haven't stopped since then.

從很久之前的＂Youtuber對K-POP的反應＂開始

- (FBE) All of these songs were hugely requested.

我就一直留言 到現在都還沒停過

And although we can never satisfy everyone,

非常多歌曲都被大力的推薦

it has been a while since we've covered K-pop

雖然我們沒辦法滿足大家的口味

on this channel, so we're gonna hope we satisfy some

但我們在頻道上已經有一陣子沒有做K-POP反應了

of the rabid K-pop fans with the selection

所以我們希望今天的選曲能讓一部分的K-POP狂粉滿意

of songs from this year. - Cool, 'cause you're

酷 因為你們已經讓我很滿意了

satisfying me right now. I'm super excited.

我超級期待的

- I don't listen to it. It's not something

我不太聽這些歌

I like to listen to.

它們不是我會喜歡的類型

- (FBE) So first up, we have a song by the most requested K-pop group

首先我們要來看看一個被請求最多次的團體

that we have not yet covered on this show over the years,

而我們近幾年來還沒有在頻道上介紹過他們

Monsta X. - (gasps) Oh! Ah, yes.

叫做Monsta X

- Monsta X. Okay, let's watch this.

哦！好耶

- ♪ Dramama ramama ramama, hey ♪

Monsta X 好 來看看

- Woo! I like it. They're going acapella.

（Dramarama by Monsta X）

- ♪ (singing in Korean) ♪

嗚！

- They're so cool looking.

我喜歡！他們唱了阿卡貝拉

- They got the sickest fashion. That's by far...

00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:18,394 他們看起來很酷

- "Sweet auditory hallucination." [Bleep].

他們的造型真的很炫

- Ah, I love the production they have for the music videos!

（歌詞：甜蜜的幻覺） 媽的

- ♪ Dramarama ♪ - ♪ Dramama ramama... ♪

啊！我愛死他們MV的製作了

- I really wanna be in a boy band just because of this.

00:01:29,009 --> 00:01:31,960 我還蠻想加入男團的 就因為這個XD

- Why are Korean boys so cute? Oh my god.

為什麼韓國男生都這麼可愛？ 我的天

- ♪ (rapping in Korean) ♪ - This is jiggy.

這很酷欸

- Their music videos, I'm telling you,

他們的MV 我就想告訴你

they're so good.

真的都很好看

- ♪ (rapping in Korean) ♪ - (chuckles) I can't.

我覺得不行

I can't! I don't like that one.

我不太喜歡剛才那個

- You're not gonna fall asleep to this music, you know?

你不可能聽這首歌聽到睡著 對吧？

It's very hype up, amped style. I like it.

這首歌很high 又有精神 我喜歡

- This group, I could just bop my head to.

這個團體 我可以跟著一起點頭打節拍

Like, if I'm playing video games,

如果我在打電玩的話

I feel like this would get me in the zone.

這首歌大概可以帶我上分

- (FBE) So the members of Monsta X were chosen through a survival show

Monsta X的成員是從一部由南韓音樂頻道MNet

called "No Mercy" on South Korean music channel MNet.

製作的生存秀＂No Mercy＂選拔而來

- What? "No Mercy"? Sounds intense.

什麼？No Mercy？ 聽起來很緊張

- (FBE) In 2017, they had their most successful year so far

2017年是他們在美國音樂榜最成功的一年

on the American music charts. And like other big K-pop groups,

並且像其他知名的K-POP團體一樣

they have their own variety show

在韓國的電視台擁有自己的節目

on Korean TV called Monsta X-Ray. - Ooh.

叫做Monsta X-Ray

- (FBE) What do you think about how you could

嗚～

have a favorite music group and then also be able

你覺得 對於能有一個自己喜愛的團體

to not just have music and music videos,

並不只能透過歌曲 MV 還有節目能見到他們怎麼樣？

but even TV shows to see them on?

那讓你和他們有更多連結

- It makes you connect with them more.

我還蠻喜歡這個點子的

I really like that idea.

這就是為什麼他們的粉絲群都這麼強大

- That is also why there's more of an aspect of a stronger fanbase.

我喜歡看這些K-POP團體的電視節目

I love when I see shows like that for members

因為你是真正的在認識這些團員

of K-pop bands, 'cause you're literally

你會認識他們的名字 他們的家人

learning about the member. You're learning their names,

你會感覺到你和他們有連結

their family members. You feel connected with them.

接下來我們要給你看一首TWICE的MV

- (FBE) So next, we have a music video from a group

等等 等等

called Twice... - (exhales shakily) Wait, wait.

我的天 我愛死她們了

Wait. (laughs) Oh my gosh, I love them.

我超愛TWICE的 我知道她們的舞蹈和一切

- I love Twice so much. I know the dances and everything.

我們有在Youtubers反應中介紹過她們

- (FBE) ...who we have shown before on a YouTubers React episode

她們也出自一個名為＂Sixteen＂生存節目

who was also formed from a musical survival show,

OK

this one called "Sixteen." - Okay.

為什麼這些K-POP團體都是從電視節目出來的？

What's up with all these K-pop bands coming from TV shows?

他們從這些天才中慢慢淘汰人

- It narrows down all of the talents and then they just pick out people

到最後再挑選能契合的成員

who would be good matches for each other. It usually works.

這通常行得通

♪ (bright pop music) ♪

（Likey by TWICE）

- Ooh, girl. Okay.

嗚 女團 OK

- ♪ Dan, dan, da-nan ♪

00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,270

- ♪ (singing in Korean) ♪

00:03:19,980 --> 00:03:20,620 非常輕快

- Very pop. - It's a very different vibe

和上一個比起來是非常不一樣的氛圍

(laughs) than the last group. Very different vibe.

很不一樣的氣氛

- See? This is so cute! This is pure.

看到沒？ 這超可愛的！ 又純淨

This is what I love about them.

這就是為什麼我喜歡她們

- This is a little cheesy for my tastes.

這對我來說有點油膩

Not something that I would necessarily listen to.

不是我一定會去聽的類型

- They're so cute.

她們好可愛

- Oh my god. (gasps) They're so cute!

我的天！ 她們好可愛！

- ♪ (singing in Korean) ♪

00:03:48,610 --> 00:03:51,300 啊！ 我超級喜歡她們的

- Ah, I love them so much!

我愛這個

- I love this.

那還不錯 我喜歡剛剛那個

- That was cool. I liked that one.

他們在MV上很有創意

They're very creative with their music videos.

TWICE顯然打破了Youtube K-POP女團的紀錄

- (FBE) So Twice apparently broke a YouTube record

她們的歌曲是在短時間內有最多點閱的單曲

for a K-pop girl group with the most views

而且僅在27天又20小時內就超過9000萬次觀看次數

in the shortest amount of time with that single

嗚！ 厲害了 女孩們！

with more than 90 million views in only 27 days and just 20 hours.

即使你是第一次觀看這部影片

- Woo! You go, girls!

而且你之前並未聽過K-POP女團的歌曲

- (FBE) Even if you are seeing this video for the first time

你覺得為什麼這首歌或影片

and haven't heard many K-pop girl bands before,

會在短時間內達到如此多的點閱率

what do you think it was about that song or video

我覺得

that sets it apart from the rest to have garnered

它是一首很能朗朗上口的歌 又開朗又快樂

this many views so quickly? - I mean,

它很容易記 她們也很可愛

it was a really catchy song, an uplifting, happy song.

她們的舞跳起來真的很可愛

- It's so catchy. They're so cute.

這是以前你不會想到的

Their dances, they're really cute to do.

而且它會讓你想跟著一起做

And it's like, there's something you've never thought of before

我們今天還有些影片要給你看

and it's like you wanna do it.

下一個是歌曲＂CLAP＂的MV

- (FBE) So we have a few more videos to show you for today.

由團體＂Seventeen＂所唱

The next one is the video for the single "Clap"

（CLAP by SEVENTEEN）

by the band Seventeen. - (claps softly)

他的頭髮很有意思

- ♪ Seventeen right here ♪ - I'm digging his hair.

這些老兄穿得真鮮豔

- Dude, these dudes dress so fresh,

天啊

I swear to god.

這個團也太多人了吧

- So many people in these groups!

天啊 為什麼有這麼多人啊

- Holy crap! Why are there so many of 'em?

00:04:57,570 --> 00:04:58,740

- ♪ (singing in Korean) ♪

00:04:58,740 --> 00:05:01,120

- (man yells) (silence)

00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,940 什麼XD？

- ♪ (singing in Korean) ♪

他們都很會跳舞欸

- (softly) What? (laughs)

嗚！

- They're all such great dancers.

00:05:14,220 --> 00:05:17,580 他們的MV也太狂 有超多東西在裡面

- Woo! Mm.

這看起來超有趣的 我有點嫉妒XD

- ♪ (singing in Korean) ♪

所有東西看起來都很鮮豔漂亮

- Their music videos are lit. There's a lot going on in this.

這首歌也很上口

- This looks like so much fun. I'm so jealous.

哇喔

- Everything's so colorful and pretty.

他們到底有多少人啊？是真的有17個人嗎？

- This is also really catchy.

這是首好歌 但我不太聽這一類型的

- Whoa.

我喜歡他們都很沉浸其中

How many of them are there? Is there 17 people?

目前為止我最喜歡這首 他們很有趣 超級有趣

- It's a nice song, it's just not something I'd listen to.

就像他們是high翻小隊一樣

I like that they're all into it.

Seventeen是由13名成員組成

- I like this one the best so far. They were fun. They were really fun.

天啊

They were like the turn up squad.

並且擁有多種國籍的成員 包括中 韓 以及韓美混血

- (FBE) So Seventeen is made up of 13 members...

這是在K-POP團體中較具特色的一點

- Jeez. - (FBE) ...and are multinational

哦 我其實蠻喜歡這點的

with Chinese, Korean, and Korean-American,

他們是一個團體 但也致力於經營小分隊

which also is a trait of some K-pop groups.

一個專於歌唱 一個專於舞台表演 另一個則負責嘻哈

- Oh, I actually really like that.

這使他們能有不重複的工作分配 並能結合在一起

- (FBE) They are one group, but have focused sub-units

以一個團體進行表演

within the band. One focusing on vocals, one on performance,

那其實還蠻炫的欸

and one on hip hop, allowing them to perform as a unit

酷 就像一個超大型團體一樣

without overlapping, but still coming together

人們說他們的現場表演很驚人 你覺得這樣的概念如何？

as one. - That's actually really sick.

我覺得挺酷的

- Cool, it's like a mega group.

這是策略 非常機智的作法

- (FBE) People say their live shows are incredible. What do you think

他們不會失手導致失敗或什麼的

about that concept? - I think that's kind of cool.

因為這都是計算好的了

- That's strategic, and that's really smart.

專注於各自的天賦是很天才的做法 我從來都沒想到過

There's no way for them to slip through and fall through

現在我懂為什麼他們有13個團員了

or anything, 'cause it's all calculated.

多元性和跨國籍

- Honing in on their talents is genius. I never even thought

甚至延伸到音樂上

of doing that, and now I get why they have 13 members.

就能有更多創作的來源

- Multi-diversity and multi-countries

下一部影片來自於團體＂Red Velvet＂

and even different focuses on music,

Red Velvet？ 她們一定會甜得像蛋糕

you can come up with so much more stuff.

我喜歡她們 因為她們剛出道時很可愛

- (FBE) So the next music video is from the band Red Velvet.

她們越來越成熟

- Red Velvet? They're gonna be sweet like cake.

她們的音樂也隨之成長

- I love them, 'cause they were cute when they came out,

所以她們是我喜歡的女團之一

and then they grew to be more mature

（Red Flavor by Red Velvet）

and they matured in their music and it built up.

這也太多東西了吧 好多水果

And that's one of the really big girl groups that I love.

這首比較不一樣

- ♪ (singing in Korean) ♪

這首歌聽起來就像一支廣告

- There's so much going on. There's so much fruit.

她們的髮型很可愛

- This is different.

哈哈哈XDDD

- This almost looks like a commercial.

我覺得不行XD

- Their hairstyles are so cute.

這首MV有點怪

- (giggles) I can't.

她們在評論水果？我搞不懂

- This music video's weird.

00:07:23,420 --> 00:07:25,660 天 我對自己太失望了

- Are they judging fruit? I'm so confused.

這首歌超油膩的

- (mouthing along)

但我又在跟著它一起跳舞

- God, I'm so frustrated by stuff. I'm like, it's super cheesy,

我喜歡那個 那是我的最愛

but I'm bopping in my chair.

這是那種會想讓你跳進田野間的歌曲

- I like that one. That one is my favorite.

而我就想跳進一片花田

- This is a song where you wanna go skipping in a field,

真的是首好歌 但我不會去聽這種類型的

like all of this. I just wanna skip in a field of flowers.

而且我也不是很迷女團

- They're good songs. It's just not something

所以我想大概也差不多

that I would like to listen to.

就我們的調查 ＂Red Velvet＂這個團名其實是要表達

I'm not really into girl groups either,

她們整體聲音的獨特性質

so I think that's kind of it too.

但國內的朋友應讓我們知道

- (FBE) Red Velvet's band name is actually a representation

是否還有其他相似類型的團體

of their sound as a whole that is somewhat unique

＂Red＂代表她們朗朗上口的輕快音樂

from what we could research. But people at home

而＂Velvet＂則象徵她們的慢R&B唱腔

should let us know if there are any other similar groups.

OK 我有注意到剛剛那首歌沒什麼低音節拍

The "red" represents the catchy pop in their music,

不像前面幾首歌一樣

while the "velvet" is representative of their slower R&B-based sounds.

而K-POP文化中也有所謂的＂粉絲名＂

- Okay. Yeah, I did notice that one didn't have the bass drop

所以如果你是Red Velvet的粉絲

like the other ones had.

你就是個＂ReVelvus＂

- (FBE) And fandom names are a thing across the world and also in K-pop,

哦～ OK

so if you are in Red Velvet's fandom,

粉絲對K-POP來說有個無比的影響力

you are part of the ReVeluvs. - Oh, okay.

且和目前任何一種音樂比起來都是空前的

- (FBE) Fandoms is a massive part of K-pop in a way

我們可以從無止盡的K-POP推薦留言中觀察到

unparalleled possibly with anything in music today.

有非常多人希望我們以此推廣K-POP

We know this from the endless requests

但也有人希望不要這麼做 就像雙面刃一樣

to cover K-pop to endless people who wish we would

那麼你對普遍K-POP粉絲的意見是什麼呢？

leave their fandom alone, kind of a double-edged sword.

K-POP粉絲群是完美的地方

What is your opinion on the K-pop fandom at large?

它有著多面向的多元性和很多團結力

- The K-pop fandom is a wonderful place.

我從未見過這麼多粉絲如此沉迷於某個他們喜歡的歌手

It's full of so much diversity and so much togetherness.

而我認為這也是...

- I've never seen fandoms this dedicated to the artists

呃 你懂的

that they listen to. And I think that's one of the things

造就如今K-POP成功歌手的因素之一

that contributes to the, you know, wide success of K-pop artists.

當你找到了喜歡的團體 它就會像是你的一樣

- When you find a group, it's kind of your thing,

特別是當沒有人會和你談起它的時候

especially if no one's told you about it.

所以你會想要把他們緊緊地握在手裡 越久越好

So you wanna keep it your thing for as long as possible,

但他們又是那麼優秀 讓你想要讓大家知道他們的好

but it's so good that you wanna share it with everyone.

事到如今 我們不能做一個沒有BTS的K-POP影片

- (FBE) So these days, we can't do a K-pop video

當然！！

without including BTS... - Of course!

因為無論我們報導了他們多少次

- (FBE) ...because no matter how many times we cover them,

粉絲還是會感到失望如果我們不秀出他們

people will get upset if we don't show them,

所以我們擷取了他們在今年AMA典禮上

so we have a clip from this year's American Music Awards

首次登上美國電視節目

where BTS made their US TV debut and made history

並成為K-POP歷史上首次出席AMA的團體

as the first K-pop group to ever be on the AMAs.

太瘋狂了 真的很厲害

- That's wild. That's so sick.

這顯示出K-POP已經大勢入侵美國了

- That's just showing how K-pop is moving over to America.

（首次登上美國電視 為BTS尖叫吧！）

- (Alex) Making their US TV debut, make some noise...

這是The Chainsmokers嗎？XD

- Is that the Chainsmokers? (laughs)

我記得我看過這個 然後我哭了qwq

- I remember watching this and I was crying.

他好帥！ 我的天！

- ♪ (singing in Korean) ♪ - He is so fine! Oh my god!

愛死他了

I love him.

能看一次K-POP現場表演會很酷

- It would be cool to see a K-pop performance live.

天啊 大家愛死他們了

- Man, the people are loving it.

觀眾群都瘋了XD

- That crowd's going nuts.

他們真的是風靡全球

They have such a presence worldwide.

這首歌像爆竹一樣

- This song is a banger.

天... 看他們怎麼跳的

- Man... look at 'em go.

他們就是很讚！ 你怎麼能不對這個感到興奮！

- They're great! How could you not be excited about this?

嘿那是Ansel Elgort！XD 他也很喜歡這個欸

- Hey, it's Ansel Elgort! (laughs) He was so into it too.

整個就是＂OMG＂！XD

He was like, "Oh my god!" (laughs)

他們跳舞跳得真好

- They're such good dancers.

00:10:19,205 --> 00:10:20,700 大家都像瘋了一樣

- (claps softly - (fans screaming)

我喜歡看這些粉絲 我也可以沉浸其中

- Everyone was going crazy.

這為K-POP團體的前程開啟了一扇新大門

- I like to watch their fans. I could get into that.

所以.. 對 BTS非常成功的一步 這是歷史性的一刻

- That opens a huge door for K-pop groups going forward,

不同的文化是真的在進來

so yeah, big ups to BTS. That's big time.

而且大家都很享受它 這非常值得觀望

- A different culture literally coming in

我們近五年來都有在頻道上報導K-POP

and everyone just loving it, that's super cool to see.

而且比起過去 它已是越來越知名了

- (FBE) So we have now been covering K-pop for over half a decade
