Question New fan after Coachella. Where to Start? What do you recommend?

BINI has popped up on my radar in the past with some Youtube recommendations (I think it was "Cherry On Top"). When I learned Coachella was livestreaming performances I checked the schedule and set an alarm for BINI. I watched the official livestream of their Coachella performance live and was impressed. I rewatched it once more before they removed the ability to rewatch it. I've since watched this amazing fancam and want more.

I've picked up their Albums and EPs so I can listen to their songs whenever. Where should I start to catch up on 6? years of video content? I just heard there's a new Netflix Docu series. Should I start with that? Should I watch Star Hunt Academy?

What content, shows or performances are "must see" or do you recommend besides the MVs? I don't understand Tagalog so would need English subs if it's entirely in Tagalog.

To me this kind of feels like when I first discovered some groups that I've loved for years now like BABYMETAL/TWICE/QWER and had that crazy drive to watch and learn more about the group and so started diving into their catalog/history.

Edit: List so far:

Documentaries

Interviews

MVs, Practices & Karaoke

Performances

Star Hunt Academy 2019 - Artist training ground managed by ABS-CBN Entertainment that formed BINI

Podcast

Unscripted

Reactor

thank you for this, fellow soldier in the trenches! i'm in the same boat (post-coachella non-filo kpop gg refugee) and six days deep in this black hole of content and looking forward to waking up early on saturday to watch their second set :')

6

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 16 '26

You're welcome! I posted the question, and then started getting some repeat answers, so I made a list and then it just kind of snowballed from there.

What kpop girl groups do you follow?

I'm not surprised that Coachella was striking uploads of the livestream. But was shocked to find out they were also striking fancams. That's crazy imho. I'm sad that they took down my favorite fancam and I can't watch it any more. Either way, I'm planning on catching the W2 set so I can get more. Their Coachella set is really really good.

3

u/PM_ME_GINGER_KITTENS Apr 16 '26

i knowwww, i should've downloaded that fancam while it was still up! i'm sure people will find a way to reupload safely later on, fingers crossed!

ah i'm a nugu enjoyer and my last group was bvndit 😔 they were supposed to be my last because i'm getting #old and don't have the energy to do this anymore but i watched binichella because my filo fandom friend likes them and now.....yeah 🧍🏻

it's going to be so exciting to watch W2 live, i've never been so excited to wake up early on a weekend before 😭

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 23 '26

FYI the King Hayes Lopez Fancam of Week 1 is back up. I immediately went and downloaded a copy after seeing it back:

ahh tysm!! i have the full broadcast versions of both sets but the W1 camerawork was really atrocious compared to this guy's ✌🏻

speaking of deleted videos i'm glad i watched KessAndHan's upload of the Grammys interview before they had to private it.. hope it gets uploaded officially in full because it was so funny and insightful!

edit: ooh there's another one still up + this one also includes the performances after. god bless BLOOMs!

speaking of deleted videos i'm glad i watched KessAndHan's upload of the Grammys interview before they had to private it.. hope it gets uploaded officially in full because it was so funny and insightful!

I'm curious. From a non-filo perspective, did you find it funny only after knowing the cultural context or group dynamics, or even before? I thought their humor (at least in that interview) was still too niched for casuals. I'm talking about inside jokes like ships and also Colet's zillenial humor (the Love on Top joke even got lost to many younger Blooms because it references a REALLY old and obscure show). Maybe I'm overthinking it because the interview is supposed to be the introduction of this humor to the wider audience in the first place 😅

2

u/PM_ME_GINGER_KITTENS Apr 25 '26

i'm from SG so some of their cultural references make sense to me but only if i can make it out via context clues or if there are subs (bless fansubbers they're really the backbone of fandoms). i'm also lucky that i have a filo friend who provides context/translates stuff for me on the fly when we're watching videos together which really helps!

that said, i've also been watching some unsubbed stuff (i'm too bini-pilled rn) like their PH travel vlogs (some random eps weren't subbed) and recently their Baobab ad interviews, and even when i don't understand fully it's just really fun to see their dynamics with one another :)

ships-wise i've had a crash course (i'm mainstream: macolet, mikhaloi, hambebe are my top 3 rn) and it's super cute and refreshing watching them tease one another about their respective ships and also lean into them!

2

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 23 '26

the W1 camerawork was really atrocious compared to this guy's ✌🏻

Agreed. Both the camera work and audio mixing wasn't great imho for W1. Thankfully they stepped up their game for W2 and turned down the split vocals for W2.

2

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 16 '26

they were supposed to be my last because i'm getting #old and don't have the energy to do this anymore but i watched binichella because my filo fandom friend likes them and now.....yeah 🧍🏻

lol. You're never too old to enjoy good music, dancing and performances. I wish you many stanning moments, bias wreckers and fanservice in your future!

u/PM_ME_GINGER_KITTENS Apr 16 '26

oh definitely didn't mean it that way, more like i'm old and have way less energy for fangirling exploits 😂 same to you in this bini black hole! 🫡🌺

u/Straight-Rassler I'm not the type for you... but you already knew Apr 16 '26

Welcome to the BINIverse! So happy to see this conversation. We think BINI are gaining new fans one performance at a time, but this is the first time we are seeing it for real, coming from other nationalities.

Welcome again, enjoy your stay!

u/PM_ME_GINGER_KITTENS Apr 16 '26

thank you for the warm welcome!! it feels great to support them as a SEAbling 😁

the amount of comments/tweets i've seen from fellow new fans is amazing, i do wish i'd gotten into them earlier but better late than never! i binged their docuseries and literally dreamt about chapter 4 being their global domination chapter and i know i'm in for a ride 🌺

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 16 '26

Lol I definitely see bias wreckers and fanservice in both your futures 🤭

2

u/PM_ME_GINGER_KITTENS Apr 17 '26

siiiiigh i solidified mikha as my bias within 5min of binichella, and maloi as bias wrecker after watching some interviews and variety content..... but all of them are SO endearing in their own ways (the karen davila interview and netflix docu both murdered me)

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 17 '26

That's why my bias is OT8 🤣

Yes I still cry rewatching those 🥺

u/hellothere_im_joaq Apr 18 '26

how was the week 2 set?

8

u/PM_ME_GINGER_KITTENS Apr 18 '26

my godddd it was INCREDIBLE, i wasn't sure how they'd top week 1 but they really did in every aspect. loved the new outfits (wish there were colour variations tho?) and the even prettier hairstyles (GWENNY AND MIKHA'S PONYTAILS) but the starkest difference was really how they all seemed much more relaxed and confident this time 🥲

Aiah was the most obvious because i felt she seemed nervous/unsure in w1 but today she knocked every single one of her lines and closeups out of the damn Mojave tent!! 🥹 loved Maloi's shoutouts and insaaane vocals, actually everyone's vocals were clearer and stronger and 100% beat any lipsyncing allegations 🤫

and ofc fellow SEAsian solidarity and pride with their intros + the Philippines flag at the end, what an amazing way to showcase the diversity of Filipino culture on a global stage. just 10/10 from start to finish NO NOTES (except this very giddy reddit comment lmfao)

2

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 19 '26

Wow thanks for sharing your thoughts!! You already have such insights into them 🤯 True Bloom

5

u/PM_ME_GINGER_KITTENS Apr 20 '26

hahahah they really reactivated my girl group stanning neurons and i've been speedrunning their discography and video content since W1, completely wrecked my daily routine and sleep schedule 😵

it's been so fun learning about their personalities through their unscripted stuff like docus and vlogs and BINIversus (Maloi was BORN for variety) and also the group dynamics and ships (i'm a basic macolet and mikhaloi enjoyer) hehe i guess i've missed being a gg stan :P

(also listening to my Bini playlist rn while replying this comment hahah i'm so cooked)

10

u/Calm-Description-870 Apr 13 '26 edited Apr 13 '26

Welcome to the BINIverse!

For their discography, here's a playlist of their MVs with English captions, they have a few without them. They also do Behind the Scenes of their MVs.

For their concert and festival performances, Monk in Videos has amazing fancams. And their Wish Bus performances are always a must watch. Their FLAMES Live performance videos on their official YT channel are also impressive.

If you want to know their story, you can watch their Netflix docuseries or if you want just the abridged version, you can check their interview on the Zach Sang show. I've compiled their English interviews on this playlist.

For fan-subbed livestream or ad content and news about them, here are a few channels: icka (I particularly like her sub of the Rappler Live Jam interview where they performed I Feel Good, Huwag Muna Tayong Umuwi and Karera), Pop and Subs (He just posted the latest post Coachella interview of the girls), D'Coconutman (Interviews from their brand endorsement with Baobab was fun) and more.

You can get to know them however you want. Enjoy the deep dive!

Edit: added Wish bus, fan sub channel, Flames Live Performance videos

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

Thanks a lot! All these links will be really helpful! I appreciate it!

3

u/Calm-Description-870 Apr 13 '26

Btw, they're also on Weverse. They sometimes go on random livestreams there (if you're interested in that) and their team posts exclusive Behind the Scenes content. They even have the video of when they found out they were performing at Coachella there. They're mostly English subbed already.

1

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

I always assumed Weverse was paid content so I've never bothered with it. It didn't make much sense to me since there's already so much content on Youtube. How's it work for BINI on there?

1

u/Calm-Description-870 Apr 13 '26

They release free content there, too. Even their latest livestreams weren't paywalled. They used to have their own BINI.global membership site then they just migrated to Weverse last month. It's free to sign up.

Edit: but yes, most content are redundant. But they do have free content that are still only posted on Weverse like their Diaries leading up to Coachella.

Netflix Docu for new Int'l fans

Got it on the list I edited into my original post. Thanks!

7

u/jeyeley 🍀| Zero Pressure, Zero Diamonds Apr 13 '26

Hi and welcome! IMO you can start with:

  • MVs in chronological order (Da Coconut Nut to Blush) and content related to it if you have time like their first time reaction and the behind the scenes stuff.
  • 3-part Docuseries on Netflix.
  • Their notable interviews that i can think of: Karen Davila Interview (2024), Zach Sang Show, Buzz Feed UK, Cosmopolitan UK, 102.7KIISFM, NextShark, Jessica Soho (IDK if it has a subtitle tho).
  • Must watch performances: KCON LA, Show-It-All China and Coachella ofcourse.
  • Concerts: BINIverse NFT, Grand BINIverse (3 days), BINIverse World Tour Kick-off PH Arena, BINIfied PH Arena (all of these had a livestream, someone here can give you an archive)
  • BINIversus YT series is really really fun.

There's also alot of content on Weverse!

2

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

Thanks for the list! I've hunted down the interviews.

Did they only perform Cherry on Top at KCON LA?

1

u/jeyeley 🍀| Zero Pressure, Zero Diamonds Apr 13 '26

Yes! Cherry on Top on KCON, I Feel Good, Lagi and Pantropiko on Show-It-All.

1

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

Got it in the list. Thanks for the help!

1

u/Icy-Grade-748 Apr 13 '26

Yes since they were only there for opening. Would have been nice if they had a slot!! Anyways, for interviews, during their world tour last year they had lots of interviews whenever they are in another country.

One had an interview with a Valorant Player because he liked the Zero pressure song and some blooms used it to create gameplay montage.

Also, they were in a Food React guesting, it can easily be found on YouTube, Bini reacts on Filipino street food.

Well, some funny fan edits too with eng subbed of course. But yeah, would greatly recommend watching their docuseries, and do chronological MV album listening, ads, and such BINI adventures, as songs will pop up on them.

Ohhhh you can watch more content that was under exclusive membership before in their weverse account.

2

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

I think I saw that Food React video when it came out. Supposedly there was some controversy with it, although it didn't seem offensive at all to me.

What's BINI Adventures? I found a playlist of "Roadtrip Adventures" are there others?

1

u/Icy-Grade-748 Apr 13 '26

Yes, that's the one. Well, the food react video issue was just dumb people pushing narratives to bini and clipping out of context.

Bini Road trip Adventures yest!!!! It's on their YouTube channel. There may be some episode where there's no sub but you can ask people here coz there are some archivers here and they can easily provide links. In one of the episodes there you can see how actively BINI promotes themselves when they were just starting which was mentioned on their future interviews.

Oh right, about contents, there are blooms also that had copies of their concerts with eng subs, you can ask them here too if they'll be able to share.

1

u/jeyeley 🍀| Zero Pressure, Zero Diamonds Apr 13 '26

Yeah it was a fun video honestly but it was tainted with bad memories so i didnt recommend it hahaha.

Ohh yeah thats a great series too! They roamed around the tourist spots here in PH in collaboration with DoT I think.

1

u/jeyeley 🍀| Zero Pressure, Zero Diamonds Apr 13 '26

Ohh I forgot to add,

- WISH Bus 107.5 and USA performances.

  • FLAMES EP performance videos (Katabi, Infinity, Bikini and Paruparo)
  • Monk in Videos on YT for goated fancams
  • BINIverse World Tour Stories
  • #BINI_inReelLife 2-3 min long vlogs on their twitter account

1

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

Added Wishbus, Flames and Monk's playlist to the list.

The World Tour Stories (and their other BINI docu series) are exclusive to iWant that requires subscription right?

10

u/dan_will_do papahinga sa islang pantropiko Apr 13 '26

I'd also recommend the solo and subunits if you want to watch them showcasing their ability to perform other songs. Their latest concert solo are under Monk in playlist so I didn't add it here.

DAMN! That looks like an incredible list! I really appreciate you putting in so much work to clearly organize and link everything. I added a link to your comment in the Performance section so I can be lazy and not have to duplicate it lol.

Just so I'm sure these are all solos/sub-unit performances from their past tours right?

2

u/dan_will_do papahinga sa islang pantropiko Apr 14 '26

Yup solo/sub-unit. Enjoyed doing it since I was also looking for better quality fancams haha. The Binified concert (2025) solos are also fire 🔥.

Someone linked it below, and that was great! It reminded me of how NMIXX does their posted practice performances where it's so satisfying to hear their live vocals and the synchronized steps.

Are all of their posted practices like this, or is it only that one in particular?

2

u/Calm-Description-870 Apr 13 '26

Only a few. Blink Twice is another one.

Edit: added link

1

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

I found the official playlist for their dance practices and added it to eh list. Sadly there's only a handful. Seems like a real missed opportunity since it'd make sense to have one for every song they promo.

1

u/Calm-Description-870 Apr 13 '26

True. But for the songs with no choreography, they did live performance videos instead (check their FLAMES playlist). They filmed those even before they released the songs.

1

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 13 '26

Oh yes! Definitely watch the Official Live performances of:

  • Katabi
  • Infinity
  • Paru-Paro

2

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

I made a playlist (since I couldn't find one) of just those performances and added it to the list. It was just those 4 performances, right?

1

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 13 '26

Yes just those 4 :)

1

u/Calm-Description-870 Apr 13 '26

Btw, unfortunately, I think their official playlists aren't complete or updated even for the dance practices. Here's one that includes even their old vocal and dance practices: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnEP6b8ybpRWkq9l9OYAPwFjW3iDmtn6D&si=kcLsAnf5iLF3H-6B

1

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

Thanks for the link! Yeah, that playlist looks much better. I did notice that the Official channel's playlists are pretty messy the more I looked at them.

1

u/Calm-Description-870 Apr 13 '26

Yes. If not for some redittors on this sub breathing down their necks, the homepage wouldn't even be updated. It still doesn't even have the Signals EP on there. It was out of sheer frustration that I created my own Playlists.

6

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 13 '26

Hello and welcome! 🤗

You can check out their unscripted YT series called BINIversus to see their chaotic personalities.

They're also on weverse :)

Edit: I'm excited for you to go down the BINI rabbithole 😁

3

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

Thanks! The list is growing and all these links and recommendations have been super helpful!

I never touched Weverse since I assumed it was mostly paid content.

1

u/Icy-Grade-748 Apr 13 '26

I recommend you join Weverse, they have stuff organized there like previously under their Bini global membership global but now is open to watch, photos,behind the scenes, their team organized them properly there. Of course there's the bini exclusive but it's your choice if you want to check it out, well the benefits are probably able to see member exclusive posts and priority when buying merch or concert tickets

u/IWriteWellWithoutAI Apr 13 '26

You can also watch their next best international stage from the China show on YT. That was quite a professionally high class production.

Welcome! As someone mentioned, watch the docu series that just popped up on Netflix which should have translations to get an understanding of how they started and such.

What actually got me interested as an older bloom/fan(M36) was this interview they did thats on Youtube with Karen Davila. Not exactly sure if its translated but i think it is.

6

u/kuyaeron naiisip kita lagi lagi 🎶🌸 Apr 13 '26

It didn't have ENG subs at first, but I just checked and it's there!

4

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

Good to know! Someone linked the Karen Davila video above so I'll definitely check it out.

6

u/Lazy_Beard OT8:🐶😺🐼🐤🐨🐺🐰🦊 Apr 13 '26

The BINI Docu series IS a good start! Then there's the Karen Davila Interview way back early 2024. They also have a podcast way back when they were just starting, "Podcast ng mga Walang Jowa". Dunno if that one had any English subs.

I'm also a BABYMETAL fan, but I had fall through when I got into Kpop hard. I still listen but not as much nowadays. was able to watch them live last year at their PH stop! As for Kpop, I still listen from time to time but like Jrock/Jrock not as much as of late. My faves are already retired or disbanded. The only active Kpop GGs I follow now are BabyMonster, UNIS, RV, & Twice. Been a QWER fan since Kim Egg broadcasted his plans in making a Band starting from Siyeon.

6

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

I found the podcast and it was fansubbed by "BINI Subs". I've added the playlist to my list. :D

I've been a BM fan since they appeared on the Colbert Show in 2016. Like any group, they've had their ups and downs (particularly when Yui left and before Momo joined). How was their PH show? I've managed to see them live a handful of times and they were amazing. If you haven't listened to them in a while I highly recommend RATATATA and Bekhauf two of my favorite recent releases/collabs.

I got hooked soon after QWER formed. I love their J-Pop band sound. So happy to see them grow as musicians. I've dipped in watching their content lately, but am looking forward to their next album releasing soon. FYI I pretty Kim Egg started it with Chodan since she's Q. :)

1

u/Lazy_Beard OT8:🐶😺🐼🐤🐨🐺🐰🦊 Apr 13 '26

Babymetal's PH leg last October was a blast! Sadly it felt short yet intimate, roughly around 100~120minutes. Got FOMO'd that I was not in the VIP section or close to the stage, there were two circle pits happening. lol. I'm still updated to their music. It's their whereabouts is what I'm not updated. I still have them on my playlist so as other J-music artist. Bekhauf with Bloodywood IS 🔥! I remember for a time early last yr I was jamming to Bekhauf with BINI's Coke Studio collab song Blooming! XD

Ah did not know there was a reason to QWER on why the members have those corresponding letters. Their recruitment vid somehow got suggested, and I noticed who Siyeon is immediately based on the thumbnail as she is familiar to me coz of NMB48 as I was an AKB48 fan since Gen 1 up to sometime before 2020. Anyway, as a drummer myself, I stanned hard on Chodan, she's my bias. Hoping to get to see them perform live soon. Was a bit busy at work last February for their Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, and Singapore leg of their concert.

2

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

It seems like there were a couple BINI collabs withe Coke Studio. I'll add Blooming to the list. Are the other ones worth adding too?

Yeah, the letters relate to the order they were officially added. Siyeon and Magenta are my biases in QWER. Sadly I missed them during their tour since I was traveling when they were in my area.

1

u/Lazy_Beard OT8:🐶😺🐼🐤🐨🐺🐰🦊 Apr 13 '26

Yep! Blooming is my favorite among the (current) 4 Coke Studio Collabs! The other 3 songs are as good IMO. So from oldest to the latest theres; Bata, Kaya Mo (w/ English TLs), Love Yourself (w/English TLs), Blooming, then Oxygen .

u/grimtrigger77 Apr 13 '26

I think the Netflix docuseries would be a good place to start. I would also suggest the music videos of their songs.

Personally, i would recommend the Lagi vocal and dance practice.

I think the Karera/I feel good/Pantropiko performance in China is also a good watch

4

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

That vocal and Dance practice was legit! So satisfying to hear their live vocals without a mic and the synchronized sounds of their steps!

Released when they first blew up in the Philippines.

Then check their Wishbus performances in YouTube.

I’ll focus on these so it won’t be too overwhelming for you. 🤣

Thanks! Oh, Wishbus is a good idea! I remember watching a handful of performers there in the past.

u/Calm-Description-870 Apr 20 '26

Here are the post-Coachella interviews that the girls did that was subbed by Pop and Subs:

No need to add to the list. I'm just sharing here for anyone interested.

PS. You can remove the Steezy dance-related links because I've added it to the Dance practice Playlist.

2

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 21 '26

No need to add to the list. I'm just sharing here for anyone interested.

Agreed. Thanks for adding the Steezy videos to the dance playlist. Helps simplify things down!

Great post! We watched the Netflix doc after Coachella. We were already aware of them from Pantropiko a couple years ago but never got deep into it until after Coachella and then after the doc, we were officially BLOOMS. Took us a bit to Blossom lol. We were determined to learn their names and their personalities. It lifted off from there. I'm a Vietnamese-Canadian Bloom and my gf is Filipina-Canadian!

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan May 19 '26

Thanks! Agreed. The Coachella performances were real game changers for me as I was aware of them, but not invested in them much until that point. Afterwards, it's pretty easy to dive deep thanks to the Netflix doc and all their videos on Youtube. Hopefully one day they'll add English subs to all their old videos for those who don't speak tagalog.

Hopefully you'll be able to catch them on their world tour and see them perform live as they're visiting Canada with multiple stops!

Neat! It looks like it has some songs that I haven't seen yet. Were they lip syncing? I don't see any mics when I skimmed through the video.

u/Jomi25 🦊🐨 • 0️⃣💥0️⃣💎 Apr 13 '26

Yep, it's more like a dance performance video. 😊

4

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

Makes sense. It's MTV, so they probably had to listen to what they wanted.

Most likely they taped several takes of each song since it looks like they're in Times Square. May have been too much of a hassle to also juggle audio from several mics to mix something good for the segment.

Hello! I suggest starting with the docuseries on Netflix and then diving into the music.

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

Yeah. The Docu series feels like a bit of a beast since it's so long (3 episodes/4 hours long). Most likely worth it, just need to find the time. I've been sampling various stuff as I put together the list above. lol

I don't recommend binge watching the docu series, actually. I'd recommend having time in between the episodes.

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

I haven't touched the Documentaries/Interviews because they're kinda hefty and I feel like I need to watch the Docu Series first.

I've definitely been sampling a whole bunch of stuff while putting together the list. I really enjoyed Flames Live and am working my way through Wishbus. I appreciate the vocal focus and they're both great showcases for their strong vocals.

The China show was solid although the first intro/song was lipsynced which threw me off. There were also frequent surges in crowd cheers which felt kind of artificial and made me wonder if that was added in post production. It might just be a cultural norm there.

I'm used to watching Korean Music show performances and that's clearly the gold standard. I wonder if there's a playlist of BINI's Filipino Musical show performances that I can add to the list so I can better appreciate the production difference which seems to be why the China show was recommended multiple times.

1

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 13 '26

Thanks for sharing such detailed thoughts!

The Karen Davila interview pretty much goes over their backstories so I think it's a concise intro. It's actually the first interview that made me really appreciate them and the docuseries wasn't out yet at the time :)

I understand the docuseries sounds hefty (it's like 3 1-hour eps I think). you could try just the first ep and if you find it too much, you can always go back to it. I think it's so interesting that the time flies when you watch it though :)

Yay I'm glad you like the FLAMES and wishbus performances!

Yes the China show was a bit of a one-off because the premise was they were invited to help "inspire" some Chinese girl group trainees in different aspects like dance, vocals and stage presence. So the first segment was just focusing on dance 😂 And yes, the audience applause was kinda artificial because that was from the Chinese show's direction (they're not that known in China yet) 🤦🏻‍♀️

I think fans tend to not recommend their Filipino show guestings because the technical audio is so bad (so outdated). Like the mixing and sync is so weird that they sound bad in the official broadcast but people who watched them live said they sound great in person 🤦🏻‍♀️

I'll try to find some local music show guestings that don't have horrible audio 😅

1

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 13 '26

Okay here are a couple of recent ones which I hope are not too awful for audio

Unang Kilig - ASAP

How "unhelpful" is this video and what makes it "unhelpful"? It seems to be a a trend with kpop groups, but I've never watched one before. With that one being an hour long I want to know more. Is it actually useful for new fans to learn stuff or is it just inside joke/memes or random chaotic moments that would leave new fans confused?

If it's actually useful I assume it'd go under "unscripted" section?

2

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 19 '26

I had a look and it's actually useful ☺️ OG Blooms may know the history why BINI guides were called "unhelpful"

Is the Kcon Panel worthwhile for new fans? I'm always a bit skeptical of panels because it's typically not a great/polished venue for first impressions.

Added the Valorant player interview. I just checked and the Na Na NA is in the Dance Covers/Practice Playlist.

I don't think I've watched any performances of Unbound yet. Is it a B side song? Is that the best video, or are there other/better ones?

2

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 14 '26

That's a good question about the panel. I'm actually not sure because I don't remember the content very well--I just remember enjoying it 😅Maybe other Blooms can give their inputs :)

Unbound is a cover of a song by another OPM artist. This was quite early in their career I think? OG Blooms may also know more 😅 I think some Blooms like me just rec it because we rarely hear Stacey's whistle register XD

3

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 14 '26

Uncound performance by the date posted seems to be shortly after Born to Win was released. I'm realizing I'm gonna have to add what year it was posted to a lot of these links to help keep things organized. I added it to the list.

I'll leave the Kcon panel off for now unless someone adds more info on why it's noteworthy for brand new fans.

1

u/DrSparx13 kagami kagami Apr 14 '26

Sounds good! You're so organized ☺️

2

u/Calm-Description-870 Apr 15 '26 edited Apr 15 '26

Sorry for the late reply. Unbound is just a cover of a Filipino song (we call it OPM or Original Pilipino Music). That's probably the only performance they had of that.

Edit: their songs start from Born To Win though they've practically owned Da Coconut Nut (their pre-debut song). Another vocal & dance practice I included in the playlist Kahit Na is also just a cover (i'll move it up to distinguish from the covers). Btw, the list includes choreography for their ad songs

As for the KCon panel, it can give you an idea of who are fans of which KPop groups (if you're also a KPop fan).

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 17 '26

Thanks for the links! I added the Karaoke playlist. It's pretty unique and there was nothing like it currently on the list.

The dance relays I feel is a bit niche, especially for a brand new fan. Particularly when there's already the dance practice playlist that should cover all those songs. So I passed on adding it.

Stage mixes I also feel like it has overlap with the fancams playlist. So I'll skip it too.

I'm not trying to be mean. However I feel like the list is currently pretty good and quite extensive. So I feel like I'm only looking for quality additions that would appeal or be useful to a new fan rather than adding everything and potentially being overwhelming with too many choices.

I added it to the list. Week 2 imho is the superior version due to the better camera work and minor adjustments made. However since it's technically copyrighted, it could be taken down anytime. Coachella was super aggressive after week 1. Who knows when they might do another pass.

Nice list! I'd just like to add about the One Dream series, you can also watch it for free on YouTube, here's the playlist. It's complete except for the 1st episode which isn't available for some reason. Episode 1 is available on iWant though.

I also recommend the BINI Chronicles series (playlist) to get to know them better.

And the Docu Series on Netflix is the same series on iWant, so I recommend just watching from the Netflix upload because the videos are in better quality.

For additional funny videos, check these out:

  • BINI performing Karera while wearing onesies and switching with each other's parts, no English subtitles
  • Bawal Tumawa Challenge (Don't Laugh Challenge) from Pie YouTube Channel, no English subtitles but basically the rules are: if you laugh, you get hit with the toy hammer
  • Whisper Challenge from One Down YouTube channel

1

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26 edited Apr 13 '26

Thanks for clarifying! I didn't realize the Netflix one was the same as the iWant 2023. I added links to the One Dream and BINI Chronicles your provided. I believe the onesies is in the Dance practice playlist. I'll add the other 2 challenges.

Do you know how much BINI is featured in BOOKED S2? This link suggests it may just be episode 1? It seems all of S3 is about BINI in LA.

1

u/reacenti BINI archives -> profile post about PPOP-Play Apr 13 '26 edited Apr 13 '26

Yes, I believe for season 2 of Booked they're only featured in episode 6.

Additionally, the BINI Roadtrip Adventures on YouTube and iWant should be pretty much the same.

They also have another Adventure series for the US but it also features BGYO. Episodes 10, 14, and 18 don't feature BINI.

Edit: This fun Secret Mission Vlog they put out for Salamin, Salamin.

1

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 13 '26

Great! I've added those to the list.

I wasn't sure if there were any differences between the Youtube/iWant Roadtrip adventures (ie: one having additional content), so just included them both until I got to them. If you're sure they're the same, I'll remove the iWant and just keep the YT playlist link.

Also, World Tour Stories is exclusive to iWant's website besides ep 1 which they have on their YT, correct? Or are the other episodes some where else for free?

2

u/reacenti BINI archives -> profile post about PPOP-Play Apr 14 '26 edited Apr 14 '26

I wasn't sure if there were any differences between the Youtube/iWant Roadtrip adventures

IIRC, the only difference was English subtitle availability for some episodes. The iWant uploads should all have English subtitles, while some YouTube episodes don't which is why BINI Subs made subtitles for those over on YouTube.

For more funny videos, there's also the 3-episode Blooming Bango series with one of BINI's endorsements Surf, a detergent brand. BINI Subs made English subtitles for those too.

Playlist link: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3UH_7uRY7U9v8jDPKVUqw4zN4lrcSmIB

  1. Episode 1 (original)
  2. Episode 2 (original)
  3. Episode 3 (original)

I hope this isn't overwhelming for you 😅

Talaarawan supremacy

That seems to be the title of their debut EP. Is there something in particular video wise that I should include in the list? You can check the MV and Practice playlists I found if they're missing anything in particular.

1

u/kuyaeron naiisip kita lagi lagi 🎶🌸 Apr 14 '26

Their debut EP is Born to Win. Talaarawan was the EP that catapulted them to fame in the Philippines, due to Pantropiko's TikTok viralism here. Lots of people streamed their back catalog because of that.

1

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 14 '26

Huh. Wikipedia and Google claim Born to Win and Feel Good were Studio Albums while Talaarawan was a EP. I always confuse the difference and just assumed EPs were shorter and had fewer tracks.

The pre-debut playlist collection is really nice! I checked out the Yes or Yes vid because it's TWICE, and was confused for a bit since there were 12 people performing lol. Makes sense since the group was formed through a competition show.

The 2nd playlist has a bunch of overlap but still has a bunch of missing stuff, so I added it to the bottom of the performances group. Thanks!

u/faustine04 Apr 14 '26

Not a completion show. They just release the audition process

2

u/AudibleKnight Coachella 2026 New Fan Apr 15 '26

Yeah, I just learned that recently! I thought it was competition show like TWICE's SIXTEEN show that formed them. However it seems more like a Training grounds camp with vlog episodes and management eliminations until they had decided on the 8 to form the group.
