Namjoon wrote the lyrics Spring day and he did it very cleverly because everyone can interpret it differently. For someone, it is a divorce from a loved one, or the loss of a friend, and for another, it is grief for a person who is no longer alive. Most importantly, this is a song about sadness, longing, loss and the desire to meet again with a person who is dear to you, but for some reason, you cannot see that person
The spring day mv is about the Sewol ferry incident, where high school students went on a trip on a ferry and got into an accident, the captain ordered the students to not move and stay inside, while he escaped and left the kids to die. This song is about losing a love one and its was big incident in korea mostly this song is related to that incident there were about 300 student i guess who died that day. ARMIES correct me if i am wrong
It definitely ties in to the Sewol tragedy, taking an existing BTS song about grief and using it as an anthem. The video also makes choices to tie it in to the BTS Universe (unofficially) by choosing Jungkook as the character who continues to wander around alone as in Fake Love. There are many BU tie-ins, but for the sake of putting the message about Sewol forward, it seems they have let that tie-in stay in the background.
hi! the song itself it's not about the ferry incident neither is the video, some say the choreography is related to it but it's not confirmed by bts or big hit! it is true that people in korea have taken the song to "represent" it since many think that the lyrics resonate a lot with the tragedy ❤
@@yaenataly_ I know it's not confirmed by BTS or BH but when we mostly see the explanation vedios mostly are about the incident so that why I said that and in MV the ocean, the shoes on tree the winter, the clothes in the middle of ocean all represent to that incident, I could be wrong tho🙂
Spring Day lyrics were written by RM about missing the friends he had to leave behind to become an idol. However the mv was based on symbolism around the ferry disaster that took the lives of hundreds of students. It was such a controversial time in SK so speaking out against how the gov handled the disaster would get you blacklisted. That is why the video and lyrics may not seem to be sending the same message.
Wow, didn’t know that they have to b careful about complaining. I saw the new video and of parents grieving n waiting to see who had been saved. It was horrific to watch the video n look at the stricken faces of the parents. Most families in that country has 1 child only bec of the economy. If I remember correctly the captain fled n was found dead by suicide. I’m not sure if I’m remembering correctly, ok. Do correct me if I’m wrong. But it was a national tragedy. The other tragedy was the panic in the alley where young ppl n some tourists died during Halloween I think. It was the 1st holiday since the lockdown
Jimin wrote the melody for Blood, sweet and tears. He's voice is so sweet and angelic. Please react to Jimin's album Face is so good and the othes members individual albums too. Thanks for your reaction and support
About 'Blood Sweat & Tears' : Most of BTS' worldviews express "the process of boys losing their childhood innocence and becoming adults." People get to know many dirty feelings as they grow up. We also feel hurt and guilty. In adolescence, we feel as if we are wrong and broken. But we eventually accept it and grow into adults. It's a universal feeling that everyone feels. That's why BTS is an artist.
BST is based on Herman Hesse's novel "Demian" which basically talks about losing innocence by discovering the evil in oneself, but in a very philosophical and psychological way. Edit: not only BST, but the whole album "Wing" (btw, it's a freaking gem)
Those mountain of clothes represent those students who went on trip and never come back.those mountain of clothes in darkness represent the depth of sea and last those shoes hang on tree represent hope 😊😊
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do NOT react to the MMA2019 until you have really gotten to know the guys, what they had to go through to get to where they are now, how much they were bullied & put down. This is VERY important. 💜💜💜
Please listen to Army suggestions…on everything ….there is journey we are ALL on and it’s important to know the order as it happened and as its continuing to happen 💜💜
You watched 2 of the most complex videos of their many complex songs. There are explanation videos for both songs. In Spring day the song was written by RM and Suga because they were missing some of their friends whom they have lost touch with for various reasons and mainly on their part because they were so busy. However the mv for this song is about the Sewol Ferry tragedy that happened in 2014 where over 300 passengers died and most were high school students and the whole tragedy was avoidable if if greed and deceit didn’t happen. There are several explanation videos however the the video made by an Italian army is more in-depth with live footages. In Blood , Sweat and Tears the song is based on old classic literature named Demien by Herman Hess and it’s about encountering temptations, the good vs evil, the growth as a person, and the learning opportunities that can make you a better and wiser person or take the paths that can destroy you. I think everyone has or will go through those stages at least once in a lifetime. There are 2 excellent explanation videos, XCelest and Don’t Worry, I’m not afraid channels. Thanks so much for your reaction to these 3 songs and loved your enthusiasm.
I love that you understood intuitively that Spring Day is deeper than you might assume. It can be interpreted in many ways, but ultimately it's just a perfect distillation of grief - of what it's like to miss someone desperately who has gone too far to follow. That longing for the day you'll see them again, which you feel even if someone has died. It doesn't have to be about death, but it's about profound loss. If you've lost someone, it hits close and hurts. The video brings in another dimension other folks have talked about. Also, this selection of 3 songs almost couldn't be more different, thematically 🤣 what a choice to do together!
For the songs themselves, Spring Day is about the often conflicting feelings (sadness, anger, pain, grief) around missing a loved one due to a variety of circumstances, not all salvageable. One is losing touch with them due to making different life/career decisions, another is due to betrayal/falling out, and another is death. You got it right when you said “emotional winter”. That winter will eventually end, whether it is when you meet the person again, you patch things up, or you move on from the grief. BS&T is about temptation(s) and/or unhealthy behaviors young people face as they grow up. It describes knowing something will have negative consequences but succumbing to it anyway because at that moment it is gratifying. These two MVs are HIGHLY symbolic & convoluted to the point of people creating long explanation videos, but basically the Spring Day MV is deemed to be a tribute to the mostly-teenage victims of a ferry tragedy that was surrounded by so much coverup, corruption & scandal that artists and other public figures would get blacklisted and/or suffer legal consequences for speaking about it. Therefore they had to be covert about it, but there are enough clues to make the case it is at least partly addressing the incident, like the mountain of clothing, the shoes Jimin finds near the water and hangs on the tree, the yellow ribbons on the rusted metal frame behind JK, and many others. The BS&T one is basically about the “fight” between light & darkness (the statue is a deity that incorporates both) and involves a novel about losing one’s innocence and experiencing darkness in other to find oneself, the Icarus myth about flying too close to the Sun, angels fighting demons & many other obscure references. Hope this helps.
The part in butter, where the lyrics say, "got army right behind us..." their poses weren't just random... watch again, they spell out ARMY with their bodies! ❤
Like many BTS songs, there is more than one interpretation of the same theme -- that is because the rappers take that theme and write what it means to them. On this, RM wrote it in reference to missing a dear friend and the things we (collective humanity) do to sabotage ourselves or hurt others. Suga's rap has his own personal focus on the theme. When the music video was created, the ferry tragedy had occurred and the county was collectively grieving. The video shows that collective grief and how we can be alone in our grief if we don't realize there are people around us, likely grieving too, who we can find strength in coming together to move forward.
agree, when he said "this part gives me goosebumps, they're almost breaking down while singing" I was like yeeees, V's voice is very soulful it makes you feel things
This song is about love, loss, and yearning for the past. When you see the music video the water imagery links it to the tragedy that happened in April of 2014 the sinking of Sewol ferry. In esquires winter cover story Dave Holems asks the members if it is about a specific event. Jin responded that it was about a sad event but it is also about longing he says it also represents him personally because he likes to look in the past and be lost in it. But spring day came out 3 years after the sinking of Sewol ferry a disaster which was improperly inspected, overloaded, and unbalanced ferry capsized on an overnight journey. the ship had twice the legal limit of cargo on its decks and the crews lied about the boats total weight . 304 passengers , the majority of them highschool students on a fieldtrip drowned as they were ordered to stay in their cabins until it was too late. only 172 passengers survived the wreck. It was a disaster that both angered and traumatized the nation the south Korean government tried to silence entertainers who spoke out against it. The Ministry of Education banned commemorative ribbon's in schools. there is actually a video on UA-cam that explains in detail the story behind the video and the song. 💜Stay Healthy & Safe 💜 💜Fighting💜
Blood, Sweat and Tears The painting is the 'fall of the angel Lucifer the battle of heaven where Lucifer/Satan and his rebellion angle were thrown out of Heaven. This whole MV is about growing up, meeting evil, temptation, loss of inncence it's based on the classic book called Diamen by the German Writer and thinker Hermann Hesse. Due to this MV the book was sold out and had to be reprinted, even now more students are finally reading the book that many teachers at the time were trying to get their students to read. RM quotes from the book as he let go of the ballon just before Suga plays the organ RM use's the English translation as the original is in German.
I like that you really pay attention and try to understand the songs and don't just simply react and move on. Your appreciation for the music really shows. 💜
You will find several explanations and breakdowns of Spring Day. You may want to watch those on your own, but it'll be nice if you show us your reaction. This song is very special to ARMY and has not fallen from the charts since its release 6 years ago (yes, until this very day). Warning, though, you might wanna prepare some tissues before you watch the explanation. 💜
I still cry every single time, but I think we should still cry for those lost, and their friends and family. It’s good to try to heal as much as we can but I think they deserve our tears, and our anger. 💜
The album Wings, where BS&T can be found, is based on German Swiss existential philosophy and Jungian psychological theory, as interpreted in the coming of age novel Demian, written by Hermann Hesse in 1919. The album and the song are about the concept of loss of innocence as one steps into the adult world, and how it is necessary to embrace the duality of dark and light, in the world and in oneself, in order to become a fully realized adult person. In the video, Jin is the main character, and we are witnessing a seduction as the shadows of the world intrude on his innocence. There are a lot of mythic and allegorical art pieces and symbolism in the MV representing: innocence: white doorways, clear water, Michelangelo's Pieta, blindfold, being tied/held back, swing, lollipop, balloon, bicycle, sling shot, etc) Temptation/Knowledge of the duality: black doorways, apples, green color smoke/wax/absinthe/etc, red color The Fall from innocence: Icarus, The Fall of the Rebel Angels painting at the beginning, Jungkook suspended as Icarus, V as a fallen angel, etc. Darkness in the world: Destruction of the Pieta, black doorways, Perseus with the head of Medusa, other art pieces In the end, Jin self actualizes. He accepts the duality/accepts growing up, by letting go of the balloon and embracing Abraxis, the god of both good and evil. Then he reflects (literally, in a mirror) on his transition as the shell of childhood cracks like an egg and his adult self prepares to emerge. It is melancholy to say goodbye to innocence, hence his expression, but a necessary part of growing up. We see color exploding everywhere as he accepts the transition and the knowledge, thus opening his mind and broadening his world and giving him the ability to access more creativity and growth of self. The Nietzsche quote above the mirror encapsulates what is happening to him "One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.”
From what I know, the gesture in the choreo for 'Butter' where they kiss their fingers is because Jungkook has a tattoo in that exact place that says ARMY.
About the song of "Spring Day" there are many videos of explanation they have to see one, it is worth knowing the history and the explanation of each part of the MV, and about "Blood, Sweat and tears" this video is part of the BU (BTS universe) that is made up of several music videos in order that tell a story inspired by the book "Demian" when Namjoon speaks in the middle of the video quotes a line from the book❤
Spring day is very deep meaningful song ..song is written by RM and is very poetic Also spring day is most known bts song in south korea Also it is most streamed and with most unique listeners and it is still charting on the south korea's biggest streaming platform(melon) after 6yrs of it release😮 Also for bts song lyrics i will suggest u to watch explanation video ...bcoz they have very deep meaning in their songs not only lyrics but music video itself is deep🙂
Didn't RM state in a Vlive or something that the song was about him and Suga, as well? (I remember seeing something like that in a compilation video) I've never really understood what that meant. Maybe you know more about that? (I'm kinda new Army)
Spring Day is such an emotional experience (both the song and the MV). I really recommend watching Italian Armys Spring Day explanation video. She goes in depth on all the symbolism as well as the tragedy and political controversy following it. It's a very emotional video, but it helps to show how much work they put into not just their songs but their music videos as well, and how much they care for other people.
Yes, but don't forget about Pdogg,pls, he is responsible for all their hit songs. The man is genius. I am so glad that he was working with Jimin for his 1st album😍
@@goldenhime8404 Yes he is with them for a very long time, and I really like and appreciate his producing skills. But we all know BTS members are also writing and producing their own music since very start like Mostly Suga, RM and Hobi take part in writing and producing, yes he is with them as a producer with many more produces But Dear I am no agree with you on term responsible of Hit songs All of Them Put Hard work to make the song Hit not just the producer, no offense to anybody
@@Minmahi07 they are, but Pdogg contribution is much more than members... Come on, all these genius instrumentals are his ideas. Just see the difference when Pdogg in project and when he is not (with members solos it even more clear, because for example, yes, Yoongi produced his tt track alone, but is it on level of best Pdogg's songs? No). I love good producers, because music is about producers mostly... BTS was just an exclusive for this rule, I was never attached to singers (only if it's bands who were doing music 100% by themselves only).
@@Minmahi07 out of 3 , only Suga is true producer, if you ask me. Even they (BTS) mentioned only Suga, when they was asked about "who is your producer".Of course firstly they said Pdogg. And about the youngest duo, remind you their credits in their first official projects? Yes, 0.
i'm a new army so i didn't see all of their mv yet, it's my first time watching blood sweat&tears and when there was silent i forgot for a moment that i was watching a mv it's was like a real movie 😭
That's the best feeling tbh if I could i would love to listen to all of their music for the first time again, You should also check out their jp songs they r really good especially film out
once you know that spring day especially and some other hits of bts which were written for Army during the pandemic because of how much the members missed them and to comfort fans around the world you'll realis how unique is the love they share with their fans and why army is so protective of them , these 7 boys are our 7 reasons of happiness 💜💜💜
Great reaction! I love your enthusiasm. Btw, the pose in "Butter" you thought was random (when RM says, "Got ARMY right behind us when we say so,") is NOT random. 😉 Look closely. They spell ARMY. 😁
Spring day is also a tribute to the victims and survivors of the sewol ferry tragedy. In the sewol ferry tragedy out of 476 passengers 304 passengers died .
Well, you have to see their performances at music award shows and their old concerts up to their latest concert last year because the vibe they give is very different when they perform live.And thanks for watching Bts MV 💜💜
spring day is a tribute to the victims of a Sewol shipwreck where there were many students on board, hence the allusion to the shoes on the beach and the lyrics saying "I miss you, wait for me and I'll soon be there" "I keep seeing your pictures and missing you" so beautiful
Spring Day & Blood Sweat & Tears in one reaction is alot. Well done with the Spring Day analysis - you got the Snow Piercer ref., you got the feeling despite not realising it's importance
24:50 I love BTS lyrics cause they write a lot of them in very ambiguous way, that you can relate to different meanings. Like here you can think about breakup or death. Whatever topic you relate to more or have experience with more, will resonate with you
Spring day is the queen of all time. The most streams, likes, longest charting song on Korean biggest streaming platform for all time. It’s resonated people all ages.
really appreciate man the way you enjoyed all the MVs and gave your honest opinions and reactions on the same . would love to suggest that must watch their Debut song - No more dreams.
There is a theory that the song Spring Day is a tribute to the victims of the 2014 Sewol shipwreck where over 300 people died, most of them students. This theory comes, for example, from the sneakers that Jimin rescues from the water as if it belonged to one of the children. And even though it was a theory, at the time, family members thanked BTS for this song comforting their hearts.
Spring day has references from top to bottom front to back as soon as the scene opens til it closes everything you see means something. Scenes names lyrics images it's actually insane
The Butter performance at the Grammys is amazing to watch. All the boys are doing their mandatory military service atm but beforehand they did solo songs. Please check them out e.g. V's Singularity,& his Layover album, Jungkook's SNTY, & his Golden album plus the other members. They're all amazing 👏🏽 ❤
I read that RM and Suga wrote the song thinking of their friends whom they barely meet anymore due to becoming idols and with their popularity it became even more harder with them going into world tour etc.. another thing is this song was also used to commemorate those who passed away in Sewol tragedy hence its also related to d3ath.
The most highly recommended explanation video for Spring Day is by Italian Army (6 years ago). I had to type this a second time because I put the link to the video in my comment & it was taken down. 💜💜💜
Yes death. This song is also about the 2014 Sewol ferry disaster. Watch the BTS explanation video about all the meanings in there Spring Day Music Video.
Who tf had him react to mma 2019 before he’s even heard any of the songs?!?!! Guys hello?!??! Damn army we need to be more patient so ppl can really enjoy the experience ffs it won’t mean as much and that’s just selfish of US. He doesn’t even know them all yet… that’s just sad for him. Please don’t rob ppl of enjoying and understanding the festive artistry of this once in a lifetime group. He’s not going to get the full package without knowing them or anything happening. Sure it is impressive…. But ugh army please ffs. Chill
Todas las canciones de BTS tienen significados profundos, seria padre que los vieras en cronología, la última cancion esta basada en el libro de Demian, sobre la perdida de la inocencia y aspectos psicológicos intrinsecos, hay videos explicando todo el mv, y spring day es una canción basada en un accidente trágico de sur corea dónde fallecieron muchos estudiantes en un ferry, creo que es un bálsamo de esperanza para no olvidar a los seres amados y la montaña de ropa representa ese dolor del país.
The wings album (blood sweat and tears is the title track of wings) is inspired by the book "demian" by Hermann Hesse and it is all about temptation so yeah you got the meaning quite right, it's kinda confusing but there are some videos that explain all the wings album and the meanings behind the songs
You need to watch the explanation video they will tell you what Spring Day. It's about a Ferry accident in South Korea where hundreds of children died.
You are right. It's interesting to see you "struggle" and then finally be able to touch the main theme of BST! It is indeed about temptation but it's more than just that. Loved the reaction.💜
Spring day the song was written by RM and suga about their freindship the MV is a attribute to the students who died in sewol ferry tragedy and the lyric can be for both because their freinds and families feel the same as the lyrics
You commented on the Boys pose in Butter. You didn't know but it wasn't a random pose. Nothing is random with the Boys! If you watch again you'll notice they are spelling out A (Jin/Jungkook), R (Suga), M (V/JHope), Y (Jimin). ARMY! 💜
I really like how You take everyone's individual voices into account. Especially when You are only at the beginning of Your BTS journey 😊 💖 I follow Ps. It's also impressive when You immediately want to hear the songs again😘🥰
Another note about BUTTER- ARMY is, indeed, the BTS fanbase. The guys are spelling out ARMY with their bodies, and the guy rapping, who stops right in the middle is Real Me (formerly Rap Monster)... RM in the middle of A(RM)Y.
INFO The song Blood Sweat & Tears you will find the leader of BTS is RM, he has an IQ of 148 and is an avid reader and this video is inspired from the book Damien by Hermann Hess.
Your interpretations of the songs are quite accurate! You're so knowledgeable and it's so refreshing to see someone having an opinion and not just recieving information withought anything more than "cool" "great" "amazing video" to say. Man your videos are SO GOOD! I will probably watch all of them tonight
They released Spring Day on Feb. 13, 2017, knowing fully well that the government had scheduled the lifting of the ferry by the end of winter that year (March); the ferry was lifted on March 27, 2017, with some of the bodies still unrecovered inside the ferry. This was 3 years after it sank and 1 month after Spring Day was released. These lines from the song make A LOT of sense: Pass the end of winter's cold Until the spring day comes again Until the flowers bloom again Please stay, please stay there a little longer Breaks my heart every freaking time.
Spring Day is our QUEEN...Since Our Boys starting to go in military Listening to it now makes me 10x more sad.. Same time backing up myself thinking about future.. BTS 4EVER❤
Me gustan tus reacciones, eres muy detallista y agudo en captar la esencia de las cosas. Cómo sugerencia, quizás ver una vez el vídeo y luego una reacción a la presentación en vivo? Para mi BTS siempre es mejor en vivo. Estaré atenta a tus futuras reacciones. Saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱
Ha ha ha the pose in Butter is anything but ramdom. They are drawing ARMY with them bodies. You are very genuine. As Jimin would say: "you good, keep going" 😂 Borahae
It's about losing a loved one and getting over the grief. Some people also think that it might be a tribute to the people who died in the Sewol ferry incident. What is Spring Day about BTS? Spring Day is generally about missing a friend, and the hopes of them coming back... You should watch the explanation video.. It will help you out for sure..
You have to react to “on kinetic manifesto” mv and “black swan” they’re the most recent releases that they put out their anthology album before their journey into solo albums!
Namjoon wrote the lyrics Spring day and he did it very cleverly because everyone can interpret it differently. For someone, it is a divorce from a loved one, or the loss of a friend, and for another, it is grief for a person who is no longer alive.

I always thought that the mountain of clothes represents the LUGGAGE the students had with them on the Sewol Ferry
the "random poses" in the butter music videos spell out ARMY
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do NOT react to the MMA2019 until you have really gotten to know the guys, what they had to go through to get to where they are now, how much they were bullied & put down. This is VERY important. 💜💜💜

You have explained this so well and concise. 🥰
He has to watch both explanation videos so as he won't get lost in the MVs.
16:50 This is V’s voice, I personally think he has the best voice

I expected you’d react no less than that with BST Jimin intro.
Thanks for this reaction vid. 😊
Spring Day is a really precious song for the Armys and has a lot of memories, I always cry when I listen to it
in my opinion almost reactors recognize jimins first hes always captivating❤❤😊
They do, the Jimin effect is so real and strong
Dynamite was my introduction, and since JK started the video off, he’s actually the first one I easily recognized lol
Like many BTS songs, there is more than one interpretation of the same theme -- that is because the rappers take that theme and write what it means to them.
On this, RM wrote it in reference to missing a dear friend and the things we (collective humanity) do to sabotage ourselves or hurt others.
Suga's rap has his own personal focus on the theme.
When the music video was created, the ferry tragedy had occurred and the county was collectively grieving. The video shows that collective grief and how we can be alone in our grief if we don't realize there are people around us, likely grieving too, who we can find strength in coming together to move forward.
yess i think yoongi said he wrote his parts in spring day about the same person he talks about in Dear MY Friend
V's vocals in spring day are so emotional 😭😭💜💜💜💜💜
agree, when he said "this part gives me goosebumps, they're almost breaking down while singing" I was like yeeees, V's voice is very soulful it makes you feel things
Ikrrr V's soulful voice never fails to make people's heart melt
Yes and he was the person singing when you kept asking who is singing and getting goosebumps.
This song is about love, loss, and yearning for the past. When you see the music video the water imagery links it to the tragedy that happened in April of 2014 the sinking of Sewol ferry. In esquires winter cover story Dave Holems asks the members if it is about a specific event. Jin responded that it was about a sad event but it is also about longing he says it also represents him personally because he likes to look in the past and be lost in it. But spring day came out 3 years after the sinking of Sewol ferry a disaster which was improperly inspected, overloaded, and unbalanced ferry capsized on an overnight journey. the ship had twice the legal limit of cargo on its decks and the crews lied about the boats total weight . 304 passengers , the majority of them highschool students on a fieldtrip drowned as they were ordered to stay in their cabins until it was too late. only 172 passengers survived the wreck. It was a disaster that both angered and traumatized the nation the south Korean government tried to silence entertainers who spoke out against it. The Ministry of Education banned commemorative ribbon's in schools. there is actually a video on UA-cam that explains in detail the story behind the video and the song.

Blood, Sweat and Tears The painting is the 'fall of the angel Lucifer the battle of heaven where Lucifer/Satan and his rebellion angle were thrown out of Heaven. This whole MV is about growing up, meeting evil, temptation, loss of inncence it's based on the classic book called Diamen by the German Writer and thinker Hermann Hesse. Due to this MV the book was sold out and had to be reprinted, even now more students are finally reading the book that many teachers at the time were trying to get their students to read. RM quotes from the book as he let go of the ballon just before Suga plays the organ RM use's the English translation as the original is in German.
I like that you really pay attention and try to understand the songs and don't just simply react and move on. Your appreciation for the music really shows. 💜
You should watch the tiny desk of you want to hear more jimin
You will find several explanations and breakdowns of Spring Day. You may want to watch those on your own, but it'll be nice if you show us your reaction. This song is very special to ARMY and has not fallen from the charts since its release 6 years ago (yes, until this very day). Warning, though, you might wanna prepare some tissues before you watch the explanation. 💜
I still cry every single time, but I think we should still cry for those lost, and their friends and family. It’s good to try to heal as much as we can but I think they deserve our tears, and our anger. 💜
The album Wings, where BS&T can be found, is based on German Swiss existential philosophy and Jungian psychological theory, as interpreted in the coming of age novel Demian, written by Hermann Hesse in 1919. The album and the song are about the concept of loss of innocence as one steps into the adult world, and how it is necessary to embrace the duality of dark and light, in the world and in oneself, in order to become a fully realized adult person.
In the video, Jin is the main character, and we are witnessing a seduction as the shadows of the world intrude on his innocence. There are a lot of mythic and allegorical art pieces and symbolism in the MV representing:
innocence: white doorways, clear water, Michelangelo's Pieta, blindfold, being tied/held back, swing, lollipop, balloon, bicycle, sling shot, etc)
Temptation/Knowledge of the duality: black doorways, apples, green color smoke/wax/absinthe/etc, red color
The Fall from innocence: Icarus, The Fall of the Rebel Angels painting at the beginning, Jungkook suspended as Icarus, V as a fallen angel, etc.
Darkness in the world: Destruction of the Pieta, black doorways, Perseus with the head of Medusa, other art pieces
In the end, Jin self actualizes. He accepts the duality/accepts growing up, by letting go of the balloon and embracing Abraxis, the god of both good and evil. Then he reflects (literally, in a mirror) on his transition as the shell of childhood cracks like an egg and his adult self prepares to emerge. It is melancholy to say goodbye to innocence, hence his expression, but a necessary part of growing up. We see color exploding everywhere as he accepts the transition and the knowledge, thus opening his mind and broadening his world and giving him the ability to access more creativity and growth of self. The Nietzsche quote above the mirror encapsulates what is happening to him "One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.”
Thus is an excellent summary. Thank you 💜
Such a great explanation. 💜🙏🏻
Beautiful 💐
By the way, if you want to hear who is singing those parts in Spring Day, you have to watch the BTS Tiny Desk video.
This react was exactly like listening to BTS on shuffle: like an emotional and musical rollercoaster. 💜
From what I know, the gesture in the choreo for 'Butter' where they kiss their fingers is because Jungkook has a tattoo in that exact place that says ARMY.
About the song of "Spring Day" there are many videos of explanation they have to see one, it is worth knowing the history and the explanation of each part of the MV, and about "Blood, Sweat and tears" this video is part of the BU (BTS universe) that is made up of several music videos in order that tell a story inspired by the book "Demian" when Namjoon speaks in the middle of the video quotes a line from the book❤
I love that you're reacting to songs with different genres, it shows how versatile BTS are!
Spring day is very deep meaningful song ..song is written by RM and is very poetic
Also spring day is most known bts song in south korea
Also it is most streamed and with most unique listeners and it is still charting on the south korea's biggest streaming platform(melon) after 6yrs of it release😮
Also for bts song lyrics i will suggest u to watch explanation video ...bcoz they have very deep meaning in their songs not only lyrics but music video itself is deep🙂
Didn't RM state in a Vlive or something that the song was about him and Suga, as well? (I remember seeing something like that in a compilation video) I've never really understood what that meant. Maybe you know more about that? (I'm kinda new Army)
انهم ليس فقط مغنيين انهم اشخاص رائعين وجيدين وقريبون من المعجبين الخاصين بهم اكتر من اي فرقه اخرى
Spring Day is such an emotional experience (both the song and the MV). I really recommend watching Italian Armys Spring Day explanation video. She goes in depth on all the symbolism as well as the tragedy and political controversy following it. It's a very emotional video, but it helps to show how much work they put into not just their songs but their music videos as well, and how much they care for other people.
Spring Day hits you really hard...it's the power of this song 💜
Yes they write and produce their own songs they are way more talented. you'll know about them if you'll dig into their songs and personalities 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Yes, but don't forget about Pdogg,pls, he is responsible for all their hit songs. The man is genius. I am so glad that he was working with Jimin for his 1st album😍
@@goldenhime8404 Yes he is with them for a very long time, and I really like and appreciate his producing skills. But we all know BTS members are also writing and producing their own music since very start like Mostly Suga, RM and Hobi take part in writing and producing, yes he is with them as a producer with many more produces
But Dear I am no agree with you on term responsible of Hit songs All of Them Put Hard work to make the song Hit not just the producer, no offense to anybody
@@Minmahi07 they are, but Pdogg contribution is much more than members... Come on, all these genius instrumentals are his ideas. Just see the difference when Pdogg in project and when he is not (with members solos it even more clear, because for example, yes, Yoongi produced his tt track alone, but is it on level of best Pdogg's songs? No). I love good producers, because music is about producers mostly... BTS was just an exclusive for this rule, I was never attached to singers (only if it's bands who were doing music 100% by themselves only).
@@goldenhime8404 if you believe that good but I don't agree with you it's my Prospective, I don't wanna disappoint you
@@Minmahi07 out of 3 , only Suga is true producer, if you ask me. Even they (BTS) mentioned only Suga, when they was asked about "who is your producer".Of course firstly they said Pdogg. And about the youngest duo, remind you their credits in their first official projects? Yes, 0.
i'm a new army so i didn't see all of their mv yet, it's my first time watching blood sweat&tears
and when there was silent i forgot for a moment that i was watching a mv it's was like a real movie 😭
That's the best feeling tbh if I could i would love to listen to all of their music for the first time again,
You should also check out their jp songs they r really good especially film out
@@Parkjiminie19 thank you I'll try to watch them3>
@@Parkjiminie19fr,I want to feel it again,but I can't, because I have watched all theirs songs 🥲
once you know that spring day especially and some other hits of bts which were written for Army during the pandemic because of how much the members missed them and to comfort fans around the world you'll realis how unique is the love they share with their fans and why army is so protective of them , these 7 boys are our 7 reasons of happiness 💜💜💜
Great reaction! I love your enthusiasm. Btw, the pose in "Butter" you thought was random (when RM says, "Got ARMY right behind us when we say so,") is NOT random. 😉 Look closely. They spell ARMY. 😁
ARMY pose with RM in the center! Perfect!
세렌디피티 라이브 추천합니다. 지민이 목소리♡
They all have miracle voices!!
Spring day is also a tribute to the victims and survivors of the sewol ferry tragedy. In the sewol ferry tragedy out of 476 passengers 304 passengers died .
Well, you have to see their performances at music award shows and their old concerts up to their latest concert last year because the vibe they give is very different when they perform live.And thanks for watching Bts MV 💜💜
spring day is a tribute to the victims of a Sewol shipwreck where there were many students on board, hence the allusion to the shoes on the beach and the lyrics saying "I miss you, wait for me and I'll soon be there" "I keep seeing your pictures and missing you" so beautiful
Spring Day & Blood Sweat & Tears in one reaction is alot. Well done with the Spring Day analysis - you got the Snow Piercer ref., you got the feeling despite not realising it's importance
Blood sweat & tears needs definitely an explanation video same as spring day so I hope u would watch it after that
Jimin😍❤️🔥👑
24:50 I love BTS lyrics cause they write a lot of them in very ambiguous way, that you can relate to different meanings. Like here you can think about breakup or death. Whatever topic you relate to more or have experience with more, will resonate with you
10:00 this was not a random pose. They spelled ARMY with their bodies
Spring day is the queen of all time. The most streams, likes, longest charting song on Korean biggest streaming platform for all time. It’s resonated people all ages.
really appreciate man the way you enjoyed all the MVs and gave your honest opinions and reactions on the same .
would love to suggest that must watch their Debut song - No more dreams.
There is a theory that the song Spring Day is a tribute to the victims of the 2014 Sewol shipwreck where over 300 people died, most of them students. This theory comes, for example, from the sneakers that Jimin rescues from the water as if it belonged to one of the children. And even though it was a theory, at the time, family members thanked BTS for this song comforting their hearts.
Especially Spring Day, it's BTS's way of commemorating the Sewol Ferry tragedy.
Spring day has references from top to bottom front to back as soon as the scene opens til it closes everything you see means something. Scenes names lyrics images it's actually insane
The Butter performance at the Grammys is amazing to watch. All the boys are doing their mandatory military service atm but beforehand they did solo songs. Please check them out e.g. V's Singularity,& his Layover album, Jungkook's SNTY, & his Golden album plus the other members. They're all amazing 👏🏽 ❤
I read that RM and Suga wrote the song thinking of their friends whom they barely meet anymore due to becoming idols and with their popularity it became even more harder with them going into world tour etc.. another thing is this song was also used to commemorate those who passed away in Sewol tragedy hence its also related to d3ath.
The most highly recommended explanation video for Spring Day is by Italian Army (6 years ago). I had to type this a second time because I put the link to the video in my comment & it was taken down. 💜💜💜
The painting is titled "The Fall of Angels".
You should react to there old songs 😭❤️🔥
the album wings from top to bottom is a freaking masterpiece I swear
Yes death. This song is also about the 2014 Sewol ferry disaster. Watch the BTS explanation video about all the meanings in there Spring Day Music Video.
Jimin ❤❤❤❤❤
Who tf had him react to mma 2019 before he’s even heard any of the songs?!?!! Guys hello?!??! Damn army we need to be more patient so ppl can really enjoy the experience ffs it won’t mean as much and that’s just selfish of US. He doesn’t even know them all yet… that’s just sad for him. Please don’t rob ppl of enjoying and understanding the festive artistry of this once in a lifetime group. He’s not going to get the full package without knowing them or anything happening. Sure it is impressive…. But ugh army please ffs. Chill
Por donde recomiendas empezar, deberías haber recomendado primero army querida 💜
Yeah like wtf
Todas las canciones de BTS tienen significados profundos, seria padre que los vieras en cronología, la última cancion esta basada en el libro de Demian, sobre la perdida de la inocencia y aspectos psicológicos intrinsecos, hay videos explicando todo el mv, y spring day es una canción basada en un accidente trágico de sur corea dónde fallecieron muchos estudiantes en un ferry, creo que es un bálsamo de esperanza para no olvidar a los seres amados y la montaña de ropa representa ese dolor del país.
You should watch an explanation video of spring day. There’s so many hidden meanings in the mv
The wings album (blood sweat and tears is the title track of wings) is inspired by the book "demian" by Hermann Hesse and it is all about temptation so yeah you got the meaning quite right, it's kinda confusing but there are some videos that explain all the wings album and the meanings behind the songs
They always perform dynamite and butter one after another in concerts . Like when dynamite ends butter immediately starts from there
You need to watch the explanation video they will tell you what Spring Day. It's about a Ferry accident in South Korea where hundreds of children died.
The pose that you said is random actually spells the word ARMY.
You are right. It's interesting to see you "struggle" and then finally be able to touch the main theme of BST! It is indeed about temptation but it's more than just that. Loved the reaction.💜
The theme of "Blood, Sweat & Tears" is temptations.
Spring day lyrics is about the wreckage of a ship in Korea where so any high school students on field trip drowned.
I love your style if saying "Play"
They're music starts with the Love Yourself series
Spring day the song was written by RM and suga about their freindship the MV is a attribute to the students who died in sewol ferry tragedy and the lyric can be for both because their freinds and families feel the same as the lyrics
You commented on the Boys pose in Butter. You didn't know but it wasn't a random pose. Nothing is random with the Boys! If you watch again you'll notice they are spelling out A (Jin/Jungkook), R (Suga), M (V/JHope), Y (Jimin). ARMY! 💜
The poses on “got army right behind us” isn’t random. It spells out ARMY with RM in the middle.
I really like how You take everyone's individual voices into account.
Especially when You are only at the beginning of Your BTS journey 😊
💖 I follow
Ps. It's also impressive when You immediately want to hear the songs again😘🥰
Another BTS song that has a lot of feeling is Save Me
Another note about BUTTER- ARMY is, indeed, the BTS fanbase. The guys are spelling out ARMY with their bodies, and the guy rapping, who stops right in the middle is Real Me (formerly Rap Monster)... RM in the middle of A(RM)Y.
The poses in Butter are not random, it spells ARMY.
Those mountain of clothes represent those students who went on trip and never come back.and last those shoes hang on tree represent hope
Spring Day and Blood, Sweat & Tears have explanation videos.
INFO The song Blood Sweat & Tears you will find the leader of BTS is RM, he has an IQ of 148 and is an avid reader and this video is inspired from the book Damien by Hermann Hess.
Your interpretations of the songs are quite accurate! You're so knowledgeable and it's so refreshing to see someone having an opinion and not just recieving information withought anything more than "cool" "great" "amazing video" to say. Man your videos are SO GOOD! I will probably watch all of them tonight
The way he explains how he enjoys certain moments of each songs is amazing!
The boy with long purple hair from butter is Jungkook, the youngest of the group and the main vocalist, he is beautiful!
BTS peaked here in BST . A cultural reset in KPOP .
They released Spring Day on Feb. 13, 2017, knowing fully well that the government had scheduled the lifting of the ferry by the end of winter that year (March); the ferry was lifted on March 27, 2017, with some of the bodies still unrecovered inside the ferry. This was 3 years after it sank and 1 month after Spring Day was released.
These lines from the song make A LOT of sense:
Pass the end of winter's cold
Until the spring day comes again
Until the flowers bloom again
Please stay, please stay there a little longer
Breaks my heart every freaking time.
The song itself was not written for the tragedy. But the themes of the song hit well.
Spring Day is our QUEEN...Since Our Boys starting to go in military Listening to it now makes me 10x more sad.. Same time backing up myself thinking about future.. BTS 4EVER❤
Me gustan tus reacciones, eres muy detallista y agudo en captar la esencia de las cosas. Cómo sugerencia, quizás ver una vez el vídeo y luego una reacción a la presentación en vivo? Para mi BTS siempre es mejor en vivo. Estaré atenta a tus futuras reacciones. Saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱
spring day song is about the seoul tragidy that happened in 2014 in which hundreds of children died because the ferry sank down
Butter at the Grammy's is amazing!
We want more BTS REACTIONS
Ha ha ha the pose in Butter is anything but ramdom. They are drawing ARMY with them bodies. You are very genuine.
As Jimin would say: "you good, keep going" 😂 Borahae
It's about losing a loved one and getting over the grief. Some people also think that it might be a tribute to the people who died in the Sewol ferry incident. What is Spring Day about BTS? Spring Day is generally about missing a friend, and the hopes of them coming back... You should watch the explanation video.. It will help you out for sure..
Everytime i hear Spring Day i have goosebump. This song really gets me emo. Glad to watch it all BTS videos back again with you.
Look up some details about the Seoul Ferry accident, and then watch Spring Day again. The lyrics and video will totally hit differently.
You have to react to “on kinetic manifesto” mv and “black swan” they’re the most recent releases that they put out their anthology album before their journey into solo albums!
