STRAY KIDS KINGDOM EP. 5

Comments

1:54:28 moments captured just before disaster

Grey Patton

What rule didn’t they folllow? I thought it was just rearranging the other team’s performance in your own style?

Anthe Wonders

They scored this way because Stray Kids did not follow mission rules when they re-did BtoB (re-look at rules) and I hate that they scored so low but the ride continues!!

Tina Stellato

omg i remember this i loved this theory sm

christa

oh damn why was skz hated? I was a stay at the time of kingdom too but wasnt really on kpop social media very much

Lily

I hate that Hyunjin wasn't in this but the way the scoring went for this episode, I'm kinda glad he wasn't because that man cannot hide his expressions. The side eye he'd be throwing would be out of this world.

Amber O'Farrell

Real

Blessing

Was a kingdom stay and on voting teams. Stray Kids was still a very hated group at the time so the voting for 3 teams caused problems. Atinys for example wouldn't vote for skz so they stacked votes for other groups like btob and sf9

Jules Bucciarati

Althought I'm an ATINY, I really felt that all the teams made an excellent performance! They were all 1st in my heart 🥺

rê 🦋

When I.N. started to cry I really felt it... 💔

rê 🦋

AYYYYYY BTOB CRUSHEEEED IIIIITTT

rê 🦋

OMG I got so hipped for ATEEZ's performance, they're amazing 😭

rê 🦋

Skz…They didn’t deserve that low ass rank…I expected 3rd or 4th, but last place for a voice crack is complete bullshit. I do think there was some plotting going on cuz K-pop just doesn’t want Skz to ever I win I feel like sometimes.. but look at them now!!! Also—Seeing baby bread cry made me want to punch something.

Elqueeen44

you should watch the Korean version of money heist

Amya Spanks

I never thought of that perspective, I thought they were ranked low because they didn't change the song to much so the sound was still Btob

Emily

I know I'm gonna get hate for this, but to me I'll be your man was the wrong choice of song. BTOB has 4 amazing vocalists known in Korea for their vocal abilities and stability live (2 of which weren't in the show, which is why when BTOB talked about performing the song Changsub refused, even one of the original singers said it was too difficult), the judges know this, they will compare to the original. And if you hear the original song performed and you hear straykids one, you can tell some of the highnotes were rushed, they hit it but couldn't keep it that high. Only at the end were they stable. That's the danger of doing a very different style and well known song. Did they deserved 6th? No, but I also wouldn't have rank them very high.

Petra Vieira

I.N being upset really hurt. His voice crack wasn't even noticeable until it was pointed out. SKZ overall did amazing and were definitely cheated. It hurt that he blamed himself for their low score🥺💔

Akira Flamez

Nigel I love you so much you make me laugh so hard the best therapy.

maris

They didn’t deserve that at all, I’m sure they were trying to sabotage them or something

Xaly_798

They’ve done a lot and are continuously trying to be involved especially hongjoong but usually other people produce their stuff

Millie b

it was probably becuz of the crack which I didn't even noticed

NightOwl

to me, he still sounded so great and that “crack” fit the desperation and tone of the song/performance super well. those judges are 👎🏻

chloe

same

NightOwl

you forgot ATEEZ too

NightOwl

just like you said about their vocals the experts probably took points off becuz of I.N.s crack

NightOwl

nothing was wrong the other groups were also great they just liked the other performances more plus they probably took points off becuz of his I.N.s crack my ult group is ATEEZ but I did like SF9 performance a bit more and I don’t even stan them yet

NightOwl

Nigel thinking Ateez had money at that time is ironic since they were the only group from a small company. Ateez has similar beginnings to BTS and they both proved to get far in their careers because they had to fight so hard.

D R

I'm convinced all those professionals and the groups thought everyone else was going to rate skz highly. Then the results came out and everyone knew they messed up. I think some of these professionals and other groups genuinely had egg on their faces

Meow Meow

Nah cause I’m convinced that everyone assumed that everyone else would vote for Stray Kids and they didn’t want them to get too far ahead this early in the show, so they voted for other people. Like that’s the only thing I can think of. Either that or they were on that hard shit fr

Grey Patton

The difference with SF9 and The Boyz for Self Eval vs The Judges was WILD. I mean clearly the Boyz had technical issues, snd SF9’s story was so good! I’m trying to be nice about SKZ for self eval. The teams ONLY get 3 votes. So I could see voting for BTOB, ATEEZ, and SF9 as an example, and then SKZ get only 1 vote. But the judges should’ve been more impartial.

StayBae

Seeing I.N. crying genuinely makes me so sad like it makes my heart hurt. I don't ever want baby bread to be sad. Plus him not hitting that high note made it feel more emotional.

Makayla Hall

Initially, only knowing the SKZ performance going into this show, I thought they were robbed. But all the groups really brought their top game so I get it. I wasn't going for any other group before Kingdom but Wooyoung cracks me up and is why I started looking into ATEEZ more. I love their personalities, just their music style isn't for me. But I appreciate their talent immensely. If I ever get through all the SKZ shows and media I might circle back around. But for now the music just doesn't click for me.

Carisha Bell

yes stray kids is unique in the sense they write their own stuff, all of it, of course with some other writers too sometimes but its all them

Bublbun

I agree that the professional judging makes no sense to me. I don't know if I would have placed them 1st, but DEFINITELY not 6th. It was a SOLID round for all the groups but IMO, IKON should have been placed last, based on performance. They were GOOD but Bobby's parts were so out of synch and chaotic at times that I felt like it took me out of enjoying the perf. as a whole, but I LOVE what they did with Inception, as a song. Oh well, we know the next eps are GOLDEN so I'm happy to be moving on :)

AshicallyMe

I understand where your going here but I don't know I think their performance was about 200% more intense than everyone else's. The emotion and the story was so much more interesting and clear to me. But I think that everyone has their own taste. But there is NO value explanation for 6th place on this one.

monica w

Nigel leave my bias Jongho alone the other groups obviously loves ATEEZ performances

NightOwl

Sixth Place felt so weird, like what the hell was going on. I was so pissed off. The fact that both stray kids performances were last ; by stray kids performance I mean, BtoB, backdoor, and stray kids. I'll be your man. 'What did these experts have against stray kids' is what I was thinking this whole time

Shamsa Muhammad

Can you go back and appreciate this opening now https://youtu.be/3FAHOyL0sog?si=uMGXOYLwuKW5Volv

Honey Sy

This episode pissed off every Stay... it was totally not understandable. Lee know was pissed af too.

Sa Bsi

no bc seeing them ranked so low made my blood boil. like wdym THAT performance got 6th and 5th?????? CRAZY. like their vocals and the storyline were absolutely jaw dropping. tbh at the VERY least…they could’ve put them in 3rd. even tho to me, it was more 1st or 2nd worthy. but i would’ve been fine and content with 3rd. but 6th place is absolutely fucking wild. i think ateez deserved their good rankings 100%, but putting skz so low just….

chloe

SAME HERE NYBRHTVGERCFE

amberXella

No but I am being so serious, the first time I watched this performance, I thought I.N. Was doing it on purpose to add to the emotional aspect of the performance. And I was really impressed that he was able to put so much emotion into his voice. Not until I started watching the full show did I know he didn’t do it on purpose.

Katie Anderson

no literally this episode pissed me off, the judges mustve been on that HARD stuff fr

Isis

surgery for vocal nodes ? no they don't ??

Kaylee

this reigniting all the rage I felt when I was watching kingdom live oooooh there's literally a fire in my stomach rn. Thank God everyone was mostly fair for fan voting at the time (no really you should have seen those voting spreadsheets they were insane)

Kaylee

41:24 yeah stray kids are one of the only self written 4th gen groups, other groups have members that write or produce sometimes but very very rarely, stray kids alongside bts are one of the only self written and produced groups in kpop (obviously not only ones but the ones that are big) thats the main thing people know about skz, that they are 'self-made' despite being in a big company

Millie b

I dont hear a voicecrack either, i think he got upset because it wasnt how it was "planed" which IMO the way he did it made it sound almost better and with more emotion SMH those judges just wanted "conflict"

Serena

I'm not gonna lie I felt like skz bit off more than they could chew. There are no bad performances on this show, and because of that it gets harder to rank as it goes on. I wouldn't have put them last tho 😭 especially cuz you KNOW I.N thought it was his fault they placed so low. My ranking was SF9, ateez, BTOB, stray kids, ikon, the boys. That being said, I think after this round no one really cares about the points. This was a show where they have fun doing what they love and testing their limits. Everyone put their best foot forward EVERY ROUND.

Duckie Momo

Nah cause this shit don’t make no sense?!?! Who tf are these “expert” judges?! Just random ass people off the streets

Mia❣️

SKZ created a masterpiece. My favorite performance of theirs of all time. They did not deserve that and trust me I was fuming too when I watched this ep for the first time.

Vina.mossy

intro had me hyped !

Callie

Right? I've watched this performance so many times and still can't hear the problem with I.N's part

Vina.mossy

You make me happy.

ObiMomKenobi 7

The best part is still to come!!

Elizabeth Schartok

also, its rlly not common for kpop groups to write their own music let alone produce it- especially to the extent that skz does! some will occasionally have members that write or produce a few (and i really mean a few) songs later on in their career. it's abnormal for a group to have such a HUGE amount of creative control,,, even ateez (which i don't know much about!!!) are a kind of abnormal because their leader produces & writes most stuff- the reason why BTOB were saying that's why they're so good, its that they make the music themselves so they know how to cater to their skills and concepts!! (also, about giving ppl their flowers i TOTALLY am on the same page) sorry if this comment made no sense its late LOL

misha

commenting before i get to .... that, LETS GO NIGEL BUST THAT CARTWHEEL WHOOOP WHOOP (NEVER LET U GO NEVER LET U GO)

misha

Minhyuk ripping his shirt off will forever be stuck in my head. I had no idea. And you're gonna lose your mind at Team Mayfly.

Elizabeth Schartok

Yess, I just feel if he sees HJ's adorable personality he'll love him more❗️😭(all of them tbh)

Ollie(Firexr)

I second that motion

C

Y’all, petition for Nigel to Stan ATEEZ below

Jackie

Idc how many times I see I.N. Cry it still breaks my heart!!!!

Lil’ Itchy AKA Jadis

i feel like I.Ns mistake gave it even more of that heartbroken, desperate sound like it sounded like he choked up which perfectly incapsulates what they went for!!!! I don’t understand the professional judges, the performance, the message, the vocals were all fire, changbin especially his voice fits those lyrics so well idk why they got such a low score honestly so heartbroken

Ibiglisa

Bro you don't want me to spoil anything , it's not my fault I'm mad too tbh

Swelix

Nigel I feel you, that was exactly my reaction to this voting. I'll Be Your Man is my favorite performance of kingdom and they placed them in 6th place!!! I don't get it...

klen24

💯

VondaGStaytiny

Love Poem is going to blow his mind!

VondaGStaytiny

It only gets better from here Nigel

Nick Wolf

This episode broke my heart, skz were AMAZING But i remember reading that the possible reasons they ranked low was because the task was to take another teams song and turn it into their song and have their vibe but skz wanted to show another side of themselves so it maybe didn't seem like skz to the judges

Shauni Livingstone

The first time I saw Kingdom, I was getting introduced to Skz and this episode still gave me the worst whiplash. NOW that I'm a STAY, I almost can't handle it! And it's not even just SKZ.. HTF did BTOB and Sf9 get such low ranking based on the judges??? BTOB interpretation of Back Door was pure genius and SF9's Stealer was a MASTERPIECE and so CLEAN and had a brilliant storyline just as much as ATEEZ' did. For the self-evaluation, the only reason I can think of SKZ getting 5th was maybe just because they went last and their performance wasn't as INTENSE as the ones before them. Technically, they did so well but maybe the storyline didn't hit as hard on first impact for the rest of the groups compared to ATEEZ or SF9. Whatever, on to the next episodes. They're pure happiness and enjoyment, Nigel. Fuck the scoring at this point.

AshicallyMe

Yeah, kingdom is gonna be the survival show that's gon make me start punching shit. When ATEEZ got that low-score last episode I was so angry. This made it even worse Nigel. Now they talking bout some voice crack I.N created when this nigga got the most unique lungs I have ever seen.. Like of course if they did something wrong (which wasn't a voice crack??) of course points come out of that, but wouldn't justify it being put into 6th place. Ridiculous.

aeraaa

I’m finna start swinging in class. That performance was beyond amazing and for them to get that rank is insane

Dominique Brown

Nigel we told you this episode was gonna make you mad! We gave a heads up without spoiling it!

Layah Snow

Nigel I now need you to open every Stray Kids video with you vibing to TOP. you know what. Switch it up a little bit by using the English version too 😹 you was killing them moves Nigel. Oh no. The cartwheel made me think of Seungmin when they were on the weekly idol? show and he wanted to breakdance. Yeeaaa, you totally landed that cartwheel 🫣. I don't drink so that does not sound fire. The way you got angry when they showed baby bread tearing up was quite literally all of stay. Yea Ateez did great and they were not treated well. I genuinely felt bad for them. Yeaaa thinking about I.N crying will distract me too cuz i swear i be ready to fuck someone up for that man. ATEEZ definitely look like they don't wanna be here but they were SUPER busy while on the show. Yes. I love when groups openly fanboy/fangirl. Like it's just natural. Yes when i first noticed ATEEZ I noticed Hong Joong, WooYoung and Yeosang. I have no idea how they went from the dance studio to laser tag with guns. Naaaahhh that rope choreo was tough as hell. Mans pushed himself AND THEN PULLED HIMSELF BACK JUST AS QUICKLY! that takes so much strength. Yea I.N crying doesn't sit well with me either. Han is SUCH a fanboy and its cute AF. Yes. Jong Ho be slaying the vocals. Completely understandable. I always want SKZ to win but ATEEZ did the damn thing. TONED DOWN?! Nigel what? Ok. I guess i can see what you mean. Not the star spangled banner Nigel 😹😂 im dead. Yes Nigel i WILL pull up with you for I.N. I REALLY hate that you used a double negative but yes. To me it seems like the groups writing their own music is not the norm. You getting excited for all the songs they mentioned is hilarious and cute. Nah, enjoy your lollipop. That's too funny. My mom LOVES migos ad-libs. Yes. This is were i first noticed MinHyuk and was shooketh. BtoB's concept was actually flawless. NIGEL HE REALLY DOES LOOK 20 AND 50 SIMULTANEOUSLY. What you mean he not actually that ripped?! You've seen the spoilers in the beginning and at the end of last episode. But yes. I also think that is the best that Peniel has sounded so far. Eunkwang is such a dork and i love him so much for that 😹. I swear i love the anger when you hear a great note. Now MinHyuk knows that Yes we wanna come in 😂😹. 1. No he don't need to put a shirt on. 2. He literally ripped it. He can't put it back on RN. Also i just noticed that San from ATEEZ is not in the dressing room. The way i love Changbinnie's laugh. Not a South Korean hood classic 😹. Yes Nigel, you have seen this performance before. It be like that. Now Nigel, YOU KNOW all the boys be putting in work. I have 5 rings that i currently NEVER take off. But i just got my SKZ ring that will live on my hands forever. Nah Changbin is big yes, but he is mostly just babygirl and we love him for it. Lol, "you must not know Seungmin" reales shit ever. You tryna sing I.N's part took me out. $5000/Hr? You trippin. YES NIGEL YOU HAVE SEEN THIS. but it definitely hits different when you see the lead up to it. Nigel geeking and saying "cuz all i hear from you are cries" early is everything. Nigel whining during the high note is so real. Im honestly surprised you caught the boy coming to life again. But I.N didn't sound bad at all to the rest of us. I really wish they showed us who the teams voted for. The struggle with ranking your fave performance of the day is so real. What did you throw? The rage that you feel Right now, we all went through. Did you see they put iKon 3rd. Not the head pat Nigel. No we were not okay with this Nigel. We respect everyone except for those "expert judges". Nigel people warned you in the comments that you won't like this episode. BUT PLEASE DON'T BE DISCOURAGED. The next episode is a breath of fresh air its just a sports day episode with friendly, wholesome competition. Its so cute. But BOOOYYY the episodes after that one will have you shook. But in a good way this time. Remember Nigel, all of stay wen through this stage with you, so we know how it feels. But I hope you feel better soon. Nigel and The dozens 홧팅!

Kwestleo

I love and hate this episode so much coz let's be real skz's performance was the best but idk wtf was wrong with those judges. Okay let's say it's not the best in their eyes but placing them 6th was a total bs!

jiyongchy

Ok I'm back. A little earlier than i said but that's fine.

Kwestleo

oh it's here....idk if I can watch this

jiyongchy

Still can’t get over the ranking…. And maybe I’m deaf or dumb or both but I can’t hear INs voice crack….

Alex Andra

That’s absolutely false . A voice crack doesn’t rank you that low . And you can’t even count that as a real flaw because literally NO ONE noticed . And JongHo was the only person doing said high notes , which is why I think SKZ should’ve ranked higher. I’m pretty sure there are other singers , but I feel like they just focus on dance and performance instead of mixing in vocals. (IMO)

ℓєιԃувυց (ℓєι)

I definitely agree , that voice crack was barely noticeable and actually went quite well. I think that they noticed how big their fandom actually is , and didn’t want StrayKids’s fans to keep voting , which is weird to me. SKZ definitely deserved better and I’m eager to see what the judges would bring to the table . 🤷🏽‍♀️

ℓєιԃувυց (ℓєι)

I’m pretty sure that’s not the reason why they placed last. A 2 sec voice crack that is barely noticeable is not smth that makes u place last. The judges were just tripping and they just wanted create drama so that people will tune in more because it was clear as a day that was one of the best performance in kingdom as a whole

Hannah🎸

I didn't expect this ep to still hurt so much😭

Amirah

We already know who Nigel's bias is before he has even gotten into ATEEZ ... Hongjoong

shu porang porang

Kpop history fact: a majority of kpop is produced by labels, so they bring in song writers for many groups songs. (If you ever decide to check out older songs, some start with a whispered 'jyp' because he produced it). It is not common for idols to create their own music. It became more acceptable after GDragon became the first idol to write and produce a lot of their music, and then more known with BTS. So when they bring up 3racha making the music, it is not common. That's why so many people are shocked when they hear the idols made the music.

redvelvetnerd

yes

NightOwl

isnt the sports tournament thing next?

EliaFiyahhh (eli-yuh fi-yuh)

Btw, Nigel I know at some point you're gonna get into Ateez, but I just want to recommend you Jong Ho's solo song: Everything. I know you will love that!!!

RitaaB

Starting the video with TOP is the GOAT!! My day is much better now

RitaaB

Nobody, and I mean nobody ever notices what I.N. perceives to be a mistake. I thought it sounded so good. It's so hard to see him so upset like you said. It really hits different.

VondaGStaytiny

Man, Nigel. I was KNOCKED OUT by 7pm so I missed this upload. And now I have work so I'll be back in 10 hours to watch this 😫

Kwestleo

Gotta be one of them two

Lucky

Ugh! This episode makes me so angry. Their faces...I just want to run up to them and tell them they do not deserve what these so-called "experts" did to them and give them all a hug.

Vanessa Doak

I thought rewatching it maybe I wouldn't feel the way I did the first time I saw it.... but once I saw that face on I.N wanting to cry I started to choke up and I was ready to start swinging for our baby bread cause that boy don't deserve to ever cry... but I was able to enjoy everyone performing this time and I loved it

Liz

thirty seconds in and nigel has again proven why he's the only reactor i actually pay to watch - slay performance 10/10 relatable

marceline

fun fact: because of what happened with i.n and chan saying "when did you get so big? i can't even hug you anymore" stays til this day use that statement to appreciate skz's accomplishments turning something kinda negative into something positive for example: that was the reaction of some of us when they won their vma award

Liyah

I was just as confused when I saw that the judges placed skz as last.. now watching this, I think the judges weren’t legit 😭 they were there to add drama and made fans tune in and vote every week. Cause I agree with you, till this date skzs rendition of I’ll be your man, is my favorite skz performance.

Laura Munoz

Time to stan ATEEZ. Like you said, they never disappoint

VondaGStaytiny

When I watched this during the showing this made me start voting. When I saw Stray Kids get 6th place I was shocked. This show made me start liking them. I knew nothing about none of these groups. I thought their performances were so exciting. It made me go down the stray kids rabbit hole. I'm a stay now.

gg2all

Nigel you'll enjoy the next 2 rounds

NightOwl

he'll love them

NightOwl

the main rapper is actually Mingi

NightOwl

definitely, they are amazing he would love their songs

NightOwl

I just said the same thing about ATEEZ not being rich yet so I was like wth is he talking about JYP is richer than the rest too, but like I said before it was probably becuz of IN's crack those judges are professionals the crack most likely took points away and the other groups were also amazing

NightOwl

Every time. Every episode. Nigel always comments on Hongjoong! I really think he loves his leadership qualities and he thinks he's a badass! I think we now know who Nigel's first bias in ATEEZ is!

VondaGStaytiny

To be honest i wasnt happy with SKZ results neither ...but let me tell ya this performance is the most seen performance in MNET from Kingdom. compared to the other performances...also i hope we can get him to react the hosts of kingdom new songs

⛓️🥀RicanFreak69🥀 ⛓️

ive watched Kingdom multiple times and IN always makes me cry

NightOwl

Jongho isn't the only one that can hit high notes in ATEEZ and SKZ were placed low most likely becuz of IN's crack and becuz the other performances were also amazing it was hard to choose becuz didn't you notice the other groups also voted for ATEEZ not just the judges

NightOwl

For me it would have been Straykids/Ateez, BtoB, the boyz, SF9 and IKON, no hate, just my personal preference

Alice

I did not even realize this. I was wondering when they made them if they made one for Hyunjin.

Kayla

true hahaha,I was thinking no way he said that. As a stay I have to admit that Ateez is such an amazing group that did so well in all their performances that made me overcome my bias and say that I won’t be mad if they ranked higher than stray kids or placed first

Alice

I was pissed too until I remembered...STAY hasn't voted yet 🫢 I ain't tripping. Stay 💪😁

Tina Prioleau Baeza

Same lol

Daijah

Same

Daijah

seeing I.N cry because he felt so guilty to the other members makes me tear up fr YOU DID AMAZING BOY

amberXella

#1 Stray Kids #2 ATEEZ #3 BTOB in my personal opinion (THEY ALL DID AMAZING)

amberXella

I know he was joking I've been with him for a long while to know he's jokes

NightOwl

I LOVE ATEEZ AND SKZ RELATIONSHIP SM YJUTERHYTGERWQD

amberXella

I GOT INTO ATEEZ A BIT AFTER WATCHING WATCHING KINGDOM AND IM SO GLAD I DID!!! NIGEL STAN ATEEZ TO IMPROVE YOUR CARTWHEEL T,URYMITERWHYEGTFWD

amberXella

........

amberXella

ATEEZ is definitely worth stanning fssss their performances are always insanee

amberXella

I know that feeling Nigel! I still cannot brain this result until now. I am not even Stay yet during this kingdom. Sixth??!

Belle

StrayKids deserved a higher ranking than ATEEZ imo and here’s why : THEY ACTUALLY USED THEIR VOCAL RAP DANCE AND PERFORMANCE ABILITIES. I’ve noticed that ATEEZ use JongHo for the specific high note as the “eye grabber” . I’m not mad that ATEEZ ranked first , but I’m mad as hell that SKZ ranked 6th and 5th. StrayKids panned several octaves and reproduced the whole song . No hate to ATZ or their fans , but I just believe that StrayKids should have at least come in 1st or 2nd .

ℓєιԃувυց (ℓєι)

Why so defensive 😭? If yk Nigel then yk that that’s how he jokes jeez !! 🤷🏽‍♀️

ℓєιԃувυց (ℓєι)

I refuse to believe they gave them 6th place it should have been number one honestly…they just pmo

Daijah

and no Nigel ATEEZ wasn't that rich yet to buy votes, ATEEZ was still very new to ppl and I hope ATEEZ will be your next group to stan

NightOwl

they show them later and some judges were ridiculous to be chosen as judges

NightOwl

I am an Atiny and a Stay but I wasnt biased on the show my ranking for this round was so hard but my ranking for first place was SF9, ATEEZ, BTOB, Stray Kids, The Boyz, and IKON as last

NightOwl

1:39:10 Nigel: listen to this! Me: struggling to hear cause he keeps yelling all hyped up! This my fist time seeing this performance and as much as I am an atiny stray kids did they big one!

Daijah

10/10 cartwheel

Max

😂

NightOwl

all groups have them

NightOwl

Nigel! Ateez is pronounced 8-tease!!!! Please! You're killing me!!!! Love you Nigel! But get it right! lol

VondaGStaytiny

BTOB DEVOURED THEIR PERFORMANCE RWETRYDUTYIK

amberXella

I LOVE HOW SKZ BE GEEKING SO HARD AT THE OTHER GROUPS IT WARMS MY HEART FR

amberXella

To this day I still don’t understand the rankin

Xiaohan Yu

I'd love to see the "expert judges" get on stage and do what SKZ just did. Like they definitely tried to sabotage SKZ, that's the only explanation.

Tiana Morgan

I don’t know if anyone else has mentioned it yet, but at the time a lot of Stay thought that the child in the performance was supposed to represent Hyunjin and the members were all trying to get him back by sacrificing themselves, but they didn’t sacrifice one of their own members so in the end everyone except Chan died and the boy came back, so Chan lost everyone trying to save one. It was a great performance and they should have placed top 3 for it.

Ashe Miller

please dont spoil

Dean Mason

all the groups performances were amazing but my boys Skz need a formal mf apology because they were scammed by the voting system fsss

amberXella

Nigel not sure if you know but SKZ have a behind the scenes video for every episode of kingdom on their official youtube. its in their playlist "kingdom behind" and it starts at episode 0. The in depth behind this episode that they show will have your respect for Han's vocal grow (he had surgery in his throat during this filming before this performance)

Cat Morales

12:04 Sebastian or vex

Riiiah

I just finished the video and I am beyond pissed off, like you ranked btob and stray kids the lowest and they did the biggest change to their performance, their swap was so out of what they normally do. I really liked sf9 performance but I placed them 4th in my list. I really liked stray kids, ateez and btob my top three

Tatiana

the intro was literally the performance you put on for your parents to convince them to let you sleep over at your cousins house

amberXella

As a StayTiny they both did so well!! But a fun fact that I think you'll find interesting about ATEEZ is their storyline. They are so good at peppering references and spoilers that we don't even know are spoilers so far in advance. There are things from this performance that turned out to be part of songs from over a year later, so they planned out THAT far in advance! But seriously ATEEZ and Stray Kids both did so well these were such great performances! Also, is anyone else excited for him to get to Love Poem?!

Cate

As a StayTiny I was so proud of Ateez getting first place but I was so angry about Stray Kids getting 6th bc they definitely didn’t deserve to rank that low 😒 Also Hongjoong and Yeosang are my bias ☺️ Felix/OT8 for me too

FelixFiveStarSmile

I started kingdom before knowing stray kids and was rooting for them the whole time and this episode had me GAGGED. couldnt understand it at all. the other teams were good but its literally incomprehensible for them to get FIFTH. not sure if the judges and i were seeing entirely different performances because nothing came close to the emotional impact of ill be your man. if anything i feel like jeongins "mistake" added a perfect amount of desperation...dont make any damn sense. well whatever...we already know who's the best now anyway 🤷

Midas

Nigel Stray Kids just released their studio recording of megaverse and cover me and we know you love cover me so you’ll see everyone’s raw vocals in the studio and 3racha producing it

AzzyAzz

Fun fact, they made 8 rings, one for Hyunjin, and it’s on the statue in a change on its neck. Remember what Chan said this song meaning was, “someone you treasure”… Hyunjin couldn’t be there, but they brought him there…. for this song 🥹

Terrena PS

BTW the member from Ateez that you like is Hongjoong the Captain (leader)

NightOwl

It’s actually really ironic that you joked abt ateez paying off the judges bc their company is tiny LMAO debuting them put their company into debt bc of how poor they were, so i was so proud of them for doing so well here. on the other hand… stray kids were snubbed by the judges in this performance. I totally agree that it’s their greatest performance, and I honestly have no clue why they ranked so low. The judges “complaints” don’t even make sense. I will say that I believe the other teams were shocked too, because based on the self evaluation scores it seems they did get plenty of votes. Next episode is great because there’s no pressure HAHA I look forward to seeing your reaction to it!!!

Julia Hyde

Omg you seriously called Jongho a human dog whistle? 🤣 He's my bias

NightOwl

And you claim you were blindsided! My “points don’t matter, don’t get hung up on them.” has been coming since episode one! That was my spoiler free prep for this very moment. You won’t be as frustrated again.

When I first watched Kingdom, I was only a Stay. And this episode made me realized how effed up the voting was. Going back and watching it as an Atiny as well, its crystal clear that the rankings mean nothing. The next few episodes are a lot of fun! you will like them Nigel!! Don't give up!

Sarah

Btw that child was representing Hyunjin (the ring they were all wearing was around its neck, signifying he is one of them) and they gave their lives to save that "child". This performance had so much more meaning to stray kids than average audience catches❤️

Marry

The real, legendary performances are coming in a few episodes. Don’t stress about the ranking, Stay put them in first for global and views iirc. The next few episodes are so much fun and erase the baby bread tears.

Kacey Miller

Nigel👍 great timing👋 I've been waiting patiently to watch this Episode with You 😄

Tina Prioleau Baeza

I was also mad when I learned the came in last place

Makayla Render

SAME BRO SAME

Leila

+ I really loved how Chan comfort I.N and said “when did you get this big? I can’t even hug you anymore.” I literally started crying so hard they really love and care for each other so much 🥹

Rzan

For me, this skz performance is my favourite out of all their kingdom performances, and that says a lot being all their performances are crazy as hell. So yeah, makes me stressed till this day that they didn’t rank high. And to imagine how I.N. feels knowing that the kid probably blames it entirely on himself is just……He cried so many times because of this performance even when they’re back at their dorm just breaks my heart. And how is it a mistake when nobody could notice anything was off ?!?!

Alice

I was PISSED when this ranking came out

Merissa Fraley

0:04 pls you scared me stop playing

Daijah

Fr I saw that and was like here we go

Tiffany Hall

It’s not common for them to produce their own music. Not on the scale Skz does

Honey Sy

Nigel, I am so sad that 5 episodes in (halfway through!!!) and you still don't know Ateez member names! please watch a guide!! im begging :'(

Sarah

I was so mad during this episode because litterally wtf

Youssrat NASSILA

OH MY! This ep is CRAZY!❗️Nigel you definitely should get into ateez next, they are so awesome. The guy you really liked with blonde hair in the ep and a crazy smile(which I love) is Hongjoong, he's the leader and main rapper❤️

Ollie(Firexr)

Honestly same SKZ didn’t deserve to be 6 the Performance was so good the storyline and the vocals is on point this pissed me off so much

Rzan

Nigel ! Ateez has such an amazing storyline for their entire career! You should react to some of their stuff in the future!

Zoie Dunagan

Tkia White

Azaly🩷

Nigel during this time Ateez was going through a lot. Like most of the groups there, they were missing a member, four of the members were filming a k drama, PLUS this was during their ‘Fireworks’ comeback. They were so tired and frustrated but they were also very grateful to be doing so much. Also thank you for uploading today….its been a rough week and it’s been so exciting to watch this with you! ❤️❤️

onthestreetw_maya

It’s okay, because the points don’t matter.

Kacey Miller

of the show or music videos?

NightOwl

🤣

NightOwl

Hong Joong (the guy that you said you liked from ateez) is the captain (leader but he is called exclusively captain because of their pirate concept that has stemmed since their debut)!

katie

Coco
