One of the many reasons he is my bias 🥰

Christopher is a special person. ALWAYS. ❤️

Tyesha B.

Ben you should check out all skz solo songs you'll gonna find a lot of rare gems

Danielle

One of my favourites. Chan showing the world his talent and amazing voice 😍

Lida Morgenroth

I just looked up the lyrics and a post came up about why Chan wrote this song. He said in a V live that he can't listen to it ! Someone must've really hurt him in the past and that is so sad!

Lida Morgenroth

This song has broken my heart and I want to take the pieces and surround Chan with them to help him heal..... He is such a beautiful person, for all his goofiness he has a depth has has yet to be plumbed!

We need more Chan’s vocals! He’s AMAZING! He has such a beautiful voice!❤️❤️❤️

FierceGlambert

Oh Ben, you have no idea how much I love you for this reaction! 🥺💖 Thank you so much for finally recognising Chan’s amazing vocal! He is a true all rounder, the foundation of Stray Kids, the selfless leader who is willing to do everything for his Kids, to let them shine instead of himself. I’m an OT8 & love everyone of them…but no one, none of them can replace Bang Chan.

FierceGlambert

This is so sadly true! 🥺 Chan is the true gem of 4th Gen K-pop and highly underrated cause he decides to let all his boys shine instead of himself. Our Best leader, the kindest, selfless, musical genius who deserves the world ❤️‍🩹❤️

Kim Todd

Bangchan a voice that pierces the heart♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🌹🌹🌹

Umai! uwu

Soy la única que cada que escucha esta canción piensa que va directo para woojin? Pido perdón por meterlo pero de verdad siempre que la escucho siento eso xdd

Eminima

this is one of the skz songs that heart hurt. beautiful reaction ben thank uuuu ♡(◠‿◠)

cos_australijskiego

If I good remember Ben already reacted to Eternity

Lida Morgenroth

Oh my goodness! For all his goofy and innocent charm, the man is deep! How could anybody hurt him! This song ripped some emotions for sure!❤️

Ashley

I can't remember if you watched the live SKZ version of Lose my Breath but if not pleaasseeeee do. It's a great way to see all of their vocals shine and Chan & Seungmins ad libs at the end send me to another dimension every time 🫠

Aliya

that's the curse of a leader And the thing is Chan himself makes the members shine more, but I'm sure he will produce more songs for himself too. + generally it's difficult to distribute 3 minute song for 8 people. And if something works - better not touch it (current skz songs and popularity) I'm sure they follow this strategy also. There are millions of other reasons why he gives the skz guys more lines instead of himself

Steve Gaghagen

Sounds like you haven't really been listening, Ben. But congratulations! There's a lot for you to still find. Bang Chan is an incredible vocalist. He is the basis of the band.

Try some of Hyunjin solos.....🥰

ArizonaDiamond

For some reason, this song always brings tears to my eyes.

Becks

The performance video of this with the piano kills me every time 😭

miadeisou

Eternity by Chan is also so good. Recent one he made, highly reccomended

Always crying...he is so perfect 🥺💖

Emma Hanley

This song is so beautiful and has made me cry multiple times. The first time I heard thos, I had to pull off the motorway into the services car patk and play it multiple times. It is so beautiful. And what a beautiful voice too.

⛓️🥀👑RicanVirgoQueen👑🥀⛓️

I swear every time i listen to this song i cry...u can feel his emotions...like what mf hurt this AMAZING man...send that person my way...we have some talkin to do *cracks knuckles*

Jasmine

THANK YOU FOR REACTING TO THIS😭😭 and also... this song will never fail to make me cry🩷🩷

Grace Petty

This song never fails to make me cry. The way you can just hear his emotion through his vocals and the lyrics are just heart wrenching 😭

Vanessa D

My favorite SKZ adjacent song. This is the first song that made me tear up with just pure vocals and I was at work! Just the pain in his voice 💔

Susanna Sutton

you should react to the mixtape album

Kumu Leato S. Savini

I always tear up when I hear this song 🥹

Lari

Reading the lyrics from this perspective, it really makes sense.. 🥺

Lari

We can feel the pain through his vocals.. This song always gets me 😭 I love all SKZ vocals, every single one of them are unique! Chan's voice.. is one of my favorites, he has a husky voice, he can sing beautiful falsettos and also high notes.. I love when he also does the ad libs..

RaeRae

I'm wondering who hurt this poor man. Chan sounds so soulful when he sings. *puts Chan back into my pocket* I'm protecting you at all costs Channie!! 🫂💗

Meggie_Dori

As a Chan Ult OT8, this is literally the video I’ve been most excited to watch. But Ben you put it wonderfully: This song is such a wake up, and just getting to see Channie shine on his own is so great. What isn’t Chan good at? But still he leads first and puts his boys first, letting them shine in the group. I just want him to be appreciated for his incredible skill. Thanks, Ben!

Leneé

I truly believe Chan is an ACE in Skz he just steps back a lot to let the kids shine!

Elqueeen44

This song is a gem. I love his voice and my heart.

Katie Guidry

It always hurts to hear when he was so sad because his friends were all debuting and he wasn’t. The Universe had bigger plans for him as the insanely talented leader of SKZ.

Katie Guidry

I love this man so much ♥️♥️♥️

Sharrence.

Channie is insanely talented 🩶i mean, he's the one who chooses his group. Make their logo. Make their name. The reason why they share the same brain cells is cs the 7 kids is Channie's wing. No Stay can hate Channie. We don't have the capability for that.

Sora H

If you listen closely to any Stray Kids song, you'll find Bang Chan does a lot of the small ad-libs/backing vocals etc! He's insanely talented but he loves to let his kids shine instead/honestly he is very self depreciating and won't accept compliments but he deserves them all.

Sora H

I 100% agree. Tbh it hit me more than ever that I think it's about the ex-member while I was watching this video and reading the lyrics and listening to his voice at the same time. I feel like the lyrics to Stray Kids self-titled song also solidified some things about why said member left but that might just be me projecting.

june

also the thing with chan is he makes most of the guides for songs meaning he records most of the songs himself on his own and then hands them over to the members with his voice as a guide to how the song is supposed to be sung, so some of the most insanely hard high notes in skz song were sung by him first and it makes sense, thw guy was a trainee for 7 years, he is jyp's golden child, he is an ace himself; if you pay attention you'll notice his vocals have like a special moment in maniac, cover me and blind spot for example but many times he records something and then have vocalracha or han or lee know do it to let them shine, the definition of a father istg-

Aein

Oo do hyunjin hyunjins long for you I've never heard him really sing sing

june

as a chan biased person, i think there are so many layers to who chan really is and every role he has to play and not in a bad way, but like i believe sometimes he makes music like this mainly for himself and for someone as selfless as he is, always putting himself last, i believe the few moments he gives himself to sing and compose for his own voice and style (imo his style is very unique for kpop, a bit more western, a bit more raw in vocals and all) are really rare and precious to see. idk him personally but i thank him for this song

Xzavior Rain

Literally probably my fav solo song from a skz member

🦔

My song 😭

Pyxis the Hobgoblin 👻

You hear Chan’s vocals all the time, both as main vocal and backup vocals. He has a very distinct sound imo. His voice is somehow fragile and strong at the same time. Love it ❤️

Mélanie

We don’t hear enough of Chan’s vocals nor rap 🥲 he’s so good I also love Black Hole with IN and connected

Alex Andra

I don’t understand why so many people sleep on Channie’s vocals. Most see him only as a leader and producer, but for me, he is THE ace. Not to say that Han isn’t an ace too, but there is nothing that Chan isn’t good at as an idol. His voice is my favorite: always stable, clear, with a wide range and a wonderful tone. I love his lazy rap style. He’s a really good dancer, an amazing vocalist, the best leader, probably one of the best producers, an awesome human being, and last but not least, he is sooooooo handsome

DarkMagicianGirl

I love this song & I can understand still wanting someone even after they’ve done you wrong It’s more-so about the idea of them rather than them themselves There’s beauty in pain when it comes to music

Ashley Lawson

I was just going to write who it is ment to be about. You put it nicer than I would have. You can hear the pain in his voice 💔

Ashley Lawson

Changbin and chans - streetlights Its a MUST ben oppa 💖

Sallie

Totally agree with you. Chris was 100% hurt when he who shall not be named deserted them. It was only natural to him to write down his feelings on paper but hide them as a breakup song 😞

Jani

Ohh.. Lee Know's Limbo is also perfect ♥

Ana

I don't want to cause controversy, but I consider this a safe place and I also think I can give my opinion without being judged. In a Channie's Room, Bang Chan said that the song is not about the member who lleft them a month before a comeback, but because of the timing I think it is. He, like everyone else, was hurt and making that song is his way of expressing himself. I don't want to bring up the past, but it's good to understand the context of the song and how bad the kids went through. That's why "I hate to admit" is very special and at the same time very sad. On the other hand, Bang Chan's voice is super special and he is very talented just like everyone else. He has other solo songs like "Eternity", "Connected", or Day6 covers like "Zombie", "I'll try (노력해볼게요)".

Honeyshines

Channie's unparalleled vocals + a single piano note = perfection

AnnieAnne

I get goosebumps every time I listen to this.

123rachagetspotlight

Omg yesss, this song is so beautiful 🥹❤️ I love it sm, chans vocals r really no joke 😭

Josie

From my interpretation The person broke the promise they made and the protagonist (Chan) doesn’t want to admit or accept what they did to him The love he still have for them makes him want them to stay and not go anywhere because he doesn’t want to accept the reality but because that person broke the promise they can’t be together because it’s too late. The promise has already been broken. It’s like a break up where you don’t wanna let go because you love them so much and refuse to admit what they did which was clearly unexpected but holding on to them hurts even more.

Melissa Nicole

I love this song! 😍

RI0Tkitty

Han might be the ace of kpop, but Chan is King 👑 And this is coming from a Han ult biased OT8 mate 💁🏼‍♀️

Fenix Flight

this song hits home to me so much I love it and will belt it out so loud even though I cant sing Korean lol. ALSO LISTEN TO CONNECTED! and his newest solo song ETERNITY!! (its about Berry supposedly)

Brisa

AHHH, I'm so happy you finally did "I Hate to Admit"! It's such a heartbreaking song and Bang Chan really does it beautifully. It's definitely one of my favorites. His voice is beautiful. Thanks for the reaction... 🥹❤️

Sian Clarke

Ben, thats the best reaction I've ever seen you have to any of their songs. This is such a beautiful song, I fell in love with this song as soon as I heard it

TC

Right? Agh... 🖤

Brittany Randolph

Have u heard connected

🌸 Yanira 🇵🇷 Rican 🌸

WoW 🥺😥🥺 After what I've been through & still going through it, the lyrics hit deep & his vocals are so amazing. At first I just listened to the song, loved the rhythm & voice. But then when listen again & I read the lyrics it made me cry. Love it ❤️ thank you Ben for sharing.

Lisa Mrozinski

I've listened to "Eternity" and loved it, but I didn't know about this one!!! (Thank you to all the Stays who recommended Ben listen to this!!! 🥰😘) Oh yeah, he definitely has a set of pipes!!! Just wish he'd let them shine a bit more often..... 🥲

Carysa Locke

Still my favorite solo Bang Chan song. It's so raw and emotional, and the vocals are SO GOOD.

Jeanie

The first time I heard it I teared up. I don't know Korean, but the emotions come through. Once I read the lyrics and understood I cried harder! Bang Chan is the complete package and any person who doesn't see that needs their head examined!

Lili Grace

This song is a piece of art (100% Bang Chan made). If you want to appreciate Bang Chan’s (and vocal racha) vocals more, I recommend you this cover of a Day6 song they sang on weekly idol https://youtu.be/h7JGwRCpzNc?si=25JKaY1uHfLsd-Ke. You can also watch Stray Kids at conodoll https://youtu.be/4ri78XWlACQ?si=ksCU1Bq14PKsGZ6T

Dina Baybez

Chans vocals are so beautiful I really hate that he doesn't let himself shine. I need more Chan centre songs :( us Chan biased are struggling out here

Aein

Yes someone responded

Christina Lara

I absolutely love this song

Christina Lara

Oi oi oi

bella144

But simultaneously yearning and pleading

Flóra

Yess he is one of the best vocalists, but always stays in the background to let others shine. Listen to his and Seungmin’s cover of Zombie it’s beautiful too and live!

bella144

Cause all I hear and feel is deep disappointment and feeling of betrayal you can’t help but face because you don’t have any other choice

.

react to connected by him too pls😔😔😔

🌸Geanina🌸

They really have a song for every mood a person can have. I love every single song of Stray Kids . Either it's a group song or individual. They are amazing.

bella144

I honestly don’t feel like this song is a song about a romantic relationship. It moreso sounds to me like a song addressed to someone who was supposed to, say, protect you, and failed. Like a parent, who abuses alcohol or neglects their child.
