Will this extension of an album truly solidify Teen Age as our favourite SVT album to date?

Let's find out with Thinkin' About You :D

If it continues this way, yep. Even I will admit nothing can beat Teen Age, contrary to what I believed before when we were on Love & Letter or Going Seventeen.

Then again, yes, technically, Director's Cut is a separate album, so maybe it's unfair to add the tracks to Teen Age, but since SVT treated this one as the last piece of the puzzle that "completes" Teen Age, we just cannot dismiss it as unrelated.

Either way, a strong start :D and we already KNOW that THANKS is an incredible song, so....what can we say, we're sure this album will deliver ;)

It's been quite some time since we last checked out Thanks, so please feel free to share some fun links (not MV, obviously) and we'll make sure to check it out and talk more about it :D and if YOU didn't know we already reacted to Thanks, check it out on our YT page before getting to our vid next week! :)

We'll talk more in the comments as always!

Enjoy <3

Caratland 2026 is happening now. The members are doing solo switches (from HBD). That should be on your radar for upcoming content.

OMG seventeen are currently performing this song in Caratland. They haven’t performed it in years! If you want to watch this 2026 version I can clip it from my recording

Priyanka Banerjee

Spoiler but it’s funny how they are performing this right now in Caratland 2026. Wow! It’s a destiny that this reaction came out today 🫂

Roxanne__d

It makes me appreciate the song more! It's so good! (Btw I don't know where you can fit this is your schedule but Caratland 2026 is happening right now and the members are switching their Happy Burstday solos, it's so fun! 🔥)

Since thinkin about you is such an old track I'm so happy to see them revisit it this year! Other comments already mentioned it, but Day 1 of 2026 Caratland is happening right now! If you have extra time I hope you consider reacting to clips since they brought back the "songs that don't suit SVT" segment AND we have solo switches of their Happy Burstday songs!!! But back to the track~ Thinkin' about you is soooo addictive, I don't understand why it got added pretty late to my SVT playlist 😅 It's funny you mention some songs get stuck in your head a week or more after your first time listen because the same thing happens to me when you release reactions or with a song that's coming up in your reactions. And thank you for checking out both the Stage Mix and fan meeting! We got to see earlier OT13 performances and the more recent OT9 🥹🥹 (everyday I get more convinced that Joshua is Han-C's second bias or wrecker now, LMAO) We've got THANKS next!!! One of their most beautiful and emotional choreos. I can't wait til you see their performances: - Choreography Video: https://youtu.be/7xKwpPQiPGs - KBS Song Festival (a bit shorter but it's a rearranged version 😁😁) https://youtu.be/bh7du0Jc_N0 - Dream Concert (HIGHLY recommend, because we see svt performing IN THE RAIN, and we got Just Do it as a bonus): https://youtu.be/CIbQXb8d5As

Surprisingly (or not, I feel like I say this almost every week at this point XD) this one brought up a lot of thoughts for me! I kinda blanked on the song just from looking at the title but as soon as it started the lightbulb went off, this song is such a vibe and obviously I need to listen to it more, I can't believe I forgot it even temporarily! For me this is one of the core, classic sounds I love from Seventeen that they do so so well, that I describe with my limited musical vocab/knowledge as a funky bop. Also, I always find it so interesting what parts/members stand out to you in a given song, often it's different to what I feel, and it's just so cool that we can have similar overall feelings about a song but the elements that make us feel that way are so different! For example, if I'm being completely honest Joshua's vocals rarely stand out to me, and I would've said this is Woozi's song, after the live performances I would add S. Coups as well. Speaking of the live performances you checked out, I'd never seen the choreo for this before and it was amazing! I thought it suited the song perfectly, I really can't picture a harder choreography like D'Some mentioned so now I'm curious what that would look like? Also, it was so trippy seeing current SVT pop up as more often than not you're watching them from previous eras. As sad as it was seeing only 9 of them on stage, I did love seeing Jun get to cover more parts! For Thanks next week, I will trust in other Carats to recommend the best live performances, but will add the link for their relay dance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mj_tCaWNM78 I'd also be down for a HS reacts to HS since you did react to the song so early on in your SVT journey, either way looking forward to what you end up checking out, and hearing your new thoughts on the song now that you're more familiar with the group and their discography leading up to Thanks. Now I'm off to check out some Caratland performances :D!

A little question!! Is there going to be a SVT live stream soon??

Mira ❀

Brief, yet incredibly impactful. "Director's Cut" perfectly wraps up a chapter while opening the door to a whole new era. And they hit the ground running with this first track, which is to me just classic Seventeen: fun, bright and catchy! Could this be the perfect moment to start SVT's "Relay Dance" marathon? 😉 - M2 Relay Dance | Seventeen - 고맙다 (Thanks): https://youtu.be/Mj_tCaWNM78?si=oVi16p8KM0p4AiQc "Thanks" has that special something that always brings a tear to my eye whenever I listen to it. The emotion it conveys is so powerful, it completely overwhelms me. It goes way beyond a typical fan song, you can literally feel all the hard work, the struggles, and the pure grit they put in over so many years. It beautifully captures the immense gratitude of finally reaching that light at the end of the tunnel, thanks to the passion and the love of their fans. The choreography does just as much to express such intense emotions, fully embodying the message to hit us right in the heart with both power and subtlety. An absolute work of art. Which is why you should definitely check out the choreography video as well: - [Choreography Video] SEVENTEEN - 고맙다(THANKS): https://youtu.be/7xKwpPQiPGs?si=_sSwUhBHzzMlM9JQ This might be the Seventeen song that touches me the most, it just makes me cry every single time 😭

Glad to see we all came to comment on the cosmic timing that was them posting this the same time svt was singing this live at caratland

Thunder Monkey

Yes! Please revisit your old reaction videos with SVT! You guys have come such a long way! Now since you've connected with the members. Awwwww, that would be so special. We will be anxiously awaiting the day youre ready to bestow those gifts upon us. Until then, let's press on. Thank you guys!

Erika

This is one of those classic SVT funky vibey bright songs that are always fun to listen to and one of the reasons I like Seventeen so much. I can see they are having fun too! They love what they do, they love performing and they are not awkward with these types of concepts. They can perform a bright song with a cute choreo from 8 years ago literally today and have the same sparkle in their eyes. Now for Thanks, one of my favourite title tracks, and as much as I love the music, I love the choreo even more, so I would certainly suggest the choreo video: Choreography video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xKwpPQiPGs MCountdown comeback stage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7C0muRq9oo Stage mix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVhk8AzECp8 And then I wanted to bring up an award performance that I think everyone should watch at least once, the Gaon Chart Awards from 2018 where they performed My I, Crazy in Love, Don't Wanna Cry and Thanks. 12 intense minutes that are just so impressive to me - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6zvkX-4oKY Maybe this can pushed until after we finish the album or as one of the extras in your long list of Seventeen things to react to, but please consider it!

Jade V

Omg yes, I love that award performance as well !

Jade V

The first 3 tracks of Director's Cut are absolute classics imo. Thinkin' About You is quintessential Seventeen funky bop™, Thanks is so emotional and Run To You... No spoilers but it's awesome ! Erika recommended their 2018 Gaon Chart performance for Thanks and I highly second that ! It feels more intense and emotional than other DWC and Thanks stages, like they're really pouring everything they have out on this one. It's also a good way to revisit the Al1 album and compare DWC and Thanks as they're both "emotional EDM" songs but still different enough that some people might like one song and be indifferent to the other one.

I had a whole giant comment written out but then my browser glitched and deleted everything so I'm gonna try rewriting it from memory: D'some saying something like "this is as up to date as it gets" is really funny since I'm coming to this video from Caratland 2026 where they just performed it again. IF YOU POSTED THE VIDEO JUST ONE DAY EARLIER YOU'D HAVE BEEN RIGHT! Thinkin About You is an interesting song. I definitely love it more than I used to, but even when it wasn't one I was so hyped about I'd still sing along to Woozi's OEOEO and "thinkin about you" when it came on. I think Han-c had the correct connection between it and Beautiful. It's like in the same category of happy well wishes songs for the fans. Something bright and cheerful. And Joshua definitely shines in this album. It's finally the time to let his vocals truly out and honestly I think, looking at this song, and the rest of the tracks of this album, that Joshua is the main character of Director's Cut. It's HIS album, and I wonder if when you finish listening to everything you'd agree with me too. The thing about the having some members missing from performances is that Seventeen without 4 members is just the size of your average kpop boy group, but the stage feels EMPTY. I can see them do well but I also know that 13 people on that stage make it look MASSIVE. I think something Woozi plays to the strength of their numbers (and this is just my theory not anything he said) is that he writes songs with a lot of lyrics and less instrumental breaks on purpose. Each member will end up having more than one line more often than not simply by the size of the song lyrics, as long as the song is long enough. That's something that's becoming harder now that the trend is shorter songs. NEXT UP WE HAVE THANKS! I was nodding along to Han-c mentioning you guys already reacted to it because I watched that video back when it was uploaded to youtube and then D'some said that you didn't and I found myself being convinced by his confidence that I somehow hallucinated that entire video and the only reason Han-c remembers it is because of the Game Caterers DK ceremony performance. BUT I REMEMBERED CORRECTLY! And because of that I'll make sure to provide you with some cool performances!

Seeing this after watching Caratland this morning 😆 I love this song🥹 and as someone else mentioned, the members performed each others HBD solos which was soooo fun, you’ll definitely have to watch it eventually

Cn Ngb

I have such an emotional tie to this song 🥹 When I was getting into Seventeen years back, I remember one of the first videos I came across was the behind the scenes recording of this song with Woozi giving the members directions while snacking on his tangerines 😄and I just fell more in love with the members and PD Woozi. 5 years later and I’m sincerely grateful to Seventeen for proving that you can have it all - brains, talent, personalities, beauty, etc. On this carat journey for life! ❤️

Joshua’s taking centre stage this week,?! With this album joining the line-up, the emotional expression will be even richer and the two albums will form a complete set. The guitar on this track is absolutely brilliant! There are loads of fans of P. Kitae’s playing. This song and‘Beautiful’ is an essential track on my playlist for when I want to motivate myself to do the cleaning or just get on with things in a lively sort of way—along with ‘LUCKY’ and others… Did you see Myung-ho wearing a red cape at the fan meeting in Osaka? ☆ For some reason, he’s taken over from the Prince of HOSHI and become the KING (laughs).  今週はジョシュアが主役ですね このAlbumが加わることでより良い感情表現が豊かになり2枚で完成すると思います この曲はGuitarが凄くいいんです!P.kitaeの演奏のファンは多いですよ 私の掃除等やる気を出したいとき、軽快に活動したい時のPlaylistに欠かせない曲で「Beautiful」 「LUCKY」等も…大阪のファンミーティングでミョンホが赤いマントを着けているのを見ましたか?☆HOSHIの王子から何故か受け継いでKINGに成ったのです(笑)

konekochan

Oh yes was gonna recommend this too for a Director's Cut wrap up!!

PinoyAkoPH

This performance made me so emotional, it's the 7th Gaon Chart Kpop Awards in 2018. The songs in it are: My I, Crazy in Love, DWC, and Thanks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6zvkX-4oKY The members were so tired because of dancing back to back LIVE full choreography and full songs. By the end, the members were close to collapsing but you can hear Hoshi at the end of Thanks yelling to give the members energy to finish it out. It is SO heartwarming and shows how dedicated they are <3

Ianha

however they haven’t checked the original solo stages so switched version wouldn’t work

Thunder Monkey

Just watched this on Caratland 10 today! Seventeen repairs my mitochondria.

Hansol's Gums

This song is so cute and so spring-summer ?????

Satwinder Virk

Maybe for the live stream, if we can watch unit switch from Caratland or the songs that doesn't suit them, doesn't have to be the recent one, could be from the past Caratlands.

Priyanka Banerjee

Thinking About You is sooo cutee! And yes it reminds me of Beautiful with the vibes it has awwww! Excited for Thanks! Also, HS reacting to HS would be so cool! P.S. I just checked out the Thanks MV reaction! Waaah! Its soo good! I think you have not seen the choreo practise for it yet, so you can maybe check that out! Since even during the MV you were mentioning how they are amazing dancers!! Choreography Video: https://youtu.be/7xKwpPQiPGs?si=W_DS4FDRg4skLYbW P.P.S Thanks has a crazy fanchant! 13 member names in 5 sec! I can't ㅠㅠ

T_큐티_섹시_러블리

This song is one of my favourites and I thought I would never get to watch them perform it live, so I nearly cried when I attended CARATLAND 2026 a few days ago! Miss the boys already.

Laini

Showing my bias here but i looove the subtle layer of DK harmonizing/doing backing vocals and then woozi doing the backing when it got to DK’s part

can

thinkin' about you will always be my go to pick me up song lol it never fails to make me happyyyyy
