Hey everyone!
As some of you have
already noticed via my two most recent reactions:
I'm back!

I'm sorry for vanishing on you all like I did but I was hella burnt out and as much as I love you all, you do not pay my bills, so I decided to take a step back and relax for a while and take some time to be a kpop stan by myself.
It was kinda nice, I realized which groups I would keep up with outside of the channel and which ones I wouldn't as much.
I got to be less informed and involved for a bit, I got to listen to music when I wanted to and not in front of a camera and I enjoyed it for a while

Until I started missing you all again so.... I'm back^^

I will not lie to you all, I am 100% caught up on all comebacks from the most recent months now and I only filmed very few of them, I will slowly edit all the videos that I did sit down to film, but unless you're here for got7 or boynextdoor, do not expect me to catch up on your faves on camera.

Moving forward I kinda wanna focus more on current comebacks with lil extras of my favorite groups thrown in.
Even with current comebacks I may not do everything. I really wanted to do BSS, but then I decided against it because I was already kinda stressed, but I still wanted to see it so I did.
You may have to deal with me doing that a little more often and I'm sorry if it will bother you, but I need to be more of a person.

I also want to find space to do more different videos, vlogs, compilations, maybe even opinion pieces.
I'm sorry to say that those of you who tell me that I should just react and keep my opinions to myself (which how does that even work) are probably gonna be unhappy with the direction I plan to go with my channel.

A struggle that no one tells you about being a reactor is the constant "I haven't seen that yet, can you skip it?" line you have to pull out when you hang out with kpop friends and ngl, it can be exhausting.
I wanna do that less, so I hope you all will accept the changes that that brings with itself for my channel.

Videos will still be coming out but they'll be less frequent and for right now my patreon is not a guaranteed thing, it's a thing only for backlog and people who want to support really badly.

I missed you all and I hope we can shape this channel into something more fun and sustainable for me longterm together ♥

Hey everyone!
So if you watched my recent concert vlog you will already know this, but I’m heading to Thailand tomorrow for BamBam’s encore concert!
There will be a ton of new releases coming out while I’m gone and I promise I’ll get to them, but I hope you understand that it might take me a week or two, so please don’t worry, they’re coming, just when I’m back :)
Also let me know if you happen to live in Bangkok! I’ll be there for a week - especially if you’re going to the concert, I have some freebies 😊

If you’re confused as to what is happening, check this video out for context^^

Hey everyone,
So I asked what you all wanted me to do about my reaction to JinJin and MoonBin's song Fly and you all said you wanted it, but on Patreon so here is the link for that. It's free so no worries, anyone can watch 💗

Hello everyone!
I remembered that Community posts exist and wanted to ask for some suggestions:
I‘m looking to film a BoyNextDoor Guide reaction soon - do any of you have suggestions for a good one?
I‘m also looking for a Kingdom guide as I can‘t seem to find one that includes Hwon 🙈

Please link me to any guides you like!

To my lovely Arohas:
So I TRIED to film a reaction to Fly. I have it, it exists, but I won‘t lie to you it‘s literally just me crying.
Putting it on youtube feels weird to me and I also don‘t know what seeing that would add to anyone‘s lives, but I wanted to give you all the option to choose what I do with it.
The YouTube option specifically is the one that feels almost exploitative or Truma porn-y to me which is why I thought I could put it on Patreon but for free and then make another community post about it.
What do you all think?

Hey everyone!
I just wanted to give you a head’s up that there won’t be any videos for a couple of days :/ unfortunately something went wrong while switching internet providers and now I have the videos filmed and edited and all ready to go but I can’t upload them because I don’t have a laptop and I can’t really drag my desktop PC to a place with internet 😅

This really goes to show me why I’ve been saving up for a laptop xD
I’ll come back as soon as I’ve got back my Internet ♥️

I hope you all enjoy and I‘m sorry it took so long 💙💙💙

Hey everyone. I won’t be sharing the reason for this since it’s potentially triggering, but most of you will have heard the news about a member of a group I react to a lot. I think I may need to take a week off because I’m not okay in the face of this. I hope you all understand
