Your break down and review get me subscribe finally, and I don't often subscribe to react channel. Somehow I like your thought process and personality and confident declaration of being a nerd (coming from another nerd).
I originally don't listen to Hip-Hop at all until I found BTS and learn to appreciate Hip-Hop and rapping skill through BTS. My bias is even the main rapper RM because it's his lyrics that hook me long enough stay and learn more about BTS and finally fall in love with their art and crafts. Even my bias wrecker is SUGA for his more honest and hard hitting lyrics.
p.s. I don't mind long video. Take your time to articulate your thoughts.
I use Nerd the way black people now use the N word. People called me it for so long as a bad thing to try to hurt me but now those same people are consuming the MCU, GOT etc things that are nerdy & that they tried to bully me for liking! So now Nerd/Weeb are MY words & I wear them with pride! Yes I'm a nerd & I was doing this shit before it was trendy! (not sure if that little rant makes sense lmao)
@@AmariLeone I love how you take pride in the name of nerd. It's still somewhat uncool in my country (Thailand) even though it makes loads of money. Being a K-POP fan also has a negative connotation here too (they just imagine us as screaming hysterical teenage girl), especially if you're not in your teen. And I'm both nerd and ARMY which makes me much happier than trying to be cool.
@@NanChirayukool Do what makes you happy & pitty the haters who try to make you feel like less than. The issue is their small brains, not you.
@@AmariLeone Beyoncé: Who run the world?
ME: NERDS!!!
@@NanChirayukool yesssss nerds rise
man let me tell you. at one point you realize youre not with BTS for their music only. Armys love and adore them as people and thats why we stay with them and support every kind of music they want to create. me personally i realized it a long time ago when i asked myself what would happen if they stopped doing music and concentrated on something else (which probably wont ever happen but u know my mind doesnt wanna listen to me) so and that was when i realized that im supporting them because of the people they are not what music they make. (dont get me wrong tho all their songs are still bops tho). so yeah i think real armys feel the same way and you will eventually do too if u keep up walking into this dark tunnel with a bigass beautiful shining hole at the end.
Yessss! Love this so much 💜

I totally agree with staying with bts for more than their music. They were one of my fist kpop groups and i listened to them almost religiously for a while, but even though I’m not that into their newer music (it’s still great music, my taste just changed a bit),I still continue to support them and when someone asks me about my favorite artist, my answer is still always bts, because of how much of a positive impact they had on my life and how much love and respect I have for the members as artists and as people. For me, being an army means supporting them positively in whatever they want to do, without demeaning others, and no matter what awards they win or who tries to push them down, encouraging them and enjoying their happiness and music💜 (edit:corrected a spelling mistake)
Honestly, totally agree with this. It is more about the message they spread, the attention and full blown love they put into their art. It makes it always art in the end no matter the genre. Its like saying that u wont love van gogh just because he changes his style of painting. I would be surprised but his talent, story and love for his craft would shine through in any kind of way. So it is that mostly. Their love for what they do, their passion and their ability to make any genre look appealing because they just pull it off. They never transitioned from one genre to another they just created their own where there is no separations to music, it is just a work of art.
Exactly, if Namjoon decided to be a novelist tomorrow I'd be annoying every bookshop till they import him.
We say, The Genre is BTS! They still have the HipHop base and each of their albums explore variety of genres including HipHop (not to mention mix up a lot of genres). But ARMY are very diverse group. We may not love every song equally (we all have personal favourites that we play more often) but every one of us appreciate quality music and BTS produces quality music. There were a lot of time I fell in love with a song later because their music gets better with every listen. 💜
So true.
You are really on a different level than most reactors. Also: you need to pull out that saxophone and play it as your intro one day.
I hate to say this but it's still about race. BTS is trying to come into the U.S. Market but the powers that be...(mostly old white dudes) still run the industry. They are painting BTS as inferior as a way to hold them back. And BTS responds BIGGER, BOLDER by being better. They can do it all. I'm sure the powers that be want the say who comes in and who becomes popular. That's how it's been for 70 years and I'm sure they don't want to give any power away. I'm not sure even if BTS sang their whole songs in English if they would be allowed on the radio. The other thing I wanted to say is. I doubt that the people who threatened you were ARMY. I guess they could be but it usually another fan groups pretending to be ARMY to stir the pot with reactors. I was going to warn you the other day but then thought maybe it wouldn't happen, so I didn't. Here to support you and going to tell other army to come and watch your channel. Last: Have you ever heard of the show survivor. You need to send in your information. Esaveo, with your, looks, critical thinking skills and your social abilities you could win that million $. They are looking for contestants right now. You should apply.
Soo much to respond to here so bare with me:
1. Thank you so much, it still feels weird getting compliments for things that I already do anyway just now I have a camera in front of my face like this is literally how I react with everything lol
2. Trust me as black man who was born in the southern US I know all about the race gate keeping & I HATE IT! As I get bigger one of my key messages is going to be acceptance of everyone regardless of race or gender or sexuality or creed but instead based on the merit of people's character
3. Yeah I've had several people tell me to KMS especially on the first video but hey does that look like that's stopping me? I love the rest of you guys so I just ignore those people. *Shrugs*
4. Ironically my mom loves the show survivor & always tells me I would be good on it! I'm gonna show her this comment it'll probably make her day lmao
@@AmariLeone The truth is kpop community always hated BTS & ARMY and are always working together to sabotage us. That's why BTS & ARMY's bond are extremely strong because we have no one but each other.
ARMY refuse to acknowledge BTS as kpop coz that industry tried to ruin them every step of the way. Kpop did not help in their success. The irony is they succeed in spite of kpop. BTS themselves said they want the genre to be BTS. Even Korean media dubbed them as BTS-POP not kpop. US gatekeeper insisted to put BTS in kpop category because they're a threat to mainstream pop artists. That's why recently US awards show introduced kpop category and dumped BTS with kpop groups who are not even selling 1/100th of what BTS is selling in the US. The awards refuse to nominate them in major categories. It's upsetting but we're used to this type of discrimination unfortunately 😢😢😢
Zee Sterces This is a really good and important comment! You should copy and share it where it has more of a chance of being seen. 💜
I just wanna apologize in advance for how long this video is; the video I was reacting to was quite long & I had a lot to say lol but hope you guys enjoy it nonetheless! Have a great day! Borahae!
Edit: To the people who disliked the video before it was even posted: F%$# off! I'm reacting to what I wanna react to wether you like it or not. Stop being a hater & watch the video. Maybe you'd see why I enjoy reacting to them.
2nd Edit: Really glad to see you guys were able to follow my BTS/Anime analogy lol, not sure if you can see on my face but in my head I was definitely thinking "dude no one will get what you're trying to say" but I'm happy that so many of you did!
No worries.💜😉
ARMYs know it's a long video and I have never seen anyone be unhappy with that (chopping it up in several videos gets a few sour comments, though, as does cutting big chunks out)!
And honestly, your comments is what we're HERE for! Without them, we might as well just watch the original video ourselves, right? You'll see the stats afterwards, we're here with you! Borahae!
@@tildatiger Yeah no chopping it up into multiple videos that's clearly done to get more views *SMH* & yes I agree what's the point of watching me just make faces at the camera, to me that's boring & not even really worth watching but tell that to the people who say "shut up you talk to much" lmao
The longer the video, the more we love it 🤺
Long? Ha! Look at my comment.
I think the transition from all hip hop to the fusion style artists they are today was organic. It was an evolution normal in both growth as people and musicians. They have always declared they dont want to be boxed into one music genre because they are 7 each with their own music preferences. They like experimenting fusing music styles together. And I like that they never fully abandoned hip hop. On each album you will usually see a full mix including at least one full rapline rap song and maybe a group hip hop, a vocal line ballad, solos, group edm trap, pop, rock...you name it. That's what has always appealed to me. I love that you can play a full album and the songs dont sound the same. So for me I look forward to what's next.
Their vesitility and variety are one of the main reasons why I can never get tired of their music. Just as you said.
That rap song is actually one of the smartest diss tracks in the Korean language. You should react to it but react to the explanation also ,if you wanna know how genius it is. It's called "Ddaeng" and it's by the rap line only. (RM,Suga,J-hope). The explanation video is by dkdktv. Also the one who was rapping that part that you liked was J-hope. I loved all your Bts reactions ,i couldn't stop smiling like an idiot the whole time. I love your commentary so much.💜🤙
i don't think therir messaged has changed they have always wanted to get their view out. in the beginning it was how life was for students in Korea or how because they were young and just starting people were already trying to crush their dreams. and now they are so big and have surpassed the all the hate and are now wanting to tell people to regardless of the hate and views of others to just love yourselves. their music has always been more about seeing passed what society's views of how everyone should be and just being yourself.
BTS’s music grows with them, which is one of the reasons why I think so many people of so many ages and countries relate so well and why the fan base grew to this size.
I am a Grey ARMY I love BTS because when my granddaughter was going through a major medical crisis. It was prayers and BTS that taught her to love herself the song Love Myself will always have a special place in my heart. Epiphany help me to see I was always looking for others to accept me but I am the one I should love. Yes BTS has helped millions with their music and with Map of the soul 7 it continues. You may lose the haters but you will gain a ARMY. Keep going 💜
BTS found me when I was in hardship a couple of months ago.. so now I am a middle age baby ARMY 😎
Love you! Keep fighting 💜
My Brown: Epiphany is my favorite song. I think look how many great songs BTS have and it comes down to Epiphany. It's down to me, realizing, I'm the one I should love.
The more I read from older fans the more I'm certain that "Grey" Army should be renamed Wise Army.
I'm 62 years old and I've been and army since 2014 and the hard work plus humble attitude has never falter. To me this guys are greater than the Beatles. To answer one of your questions I have found their transition from hip hop to pop was done so smooth because it's all been part of their story line. After all it's their story their growth,fear,shadows and what their future will be after all Jin will be going to the military. I hope someone told you they work out at least 10 hours a day(when they first started it was 15) Jimin used to sleep in the practice room trying to perfect his singing, Jin was airways trying to improve his dancing by the way my favorite is V but I'm not going to bash you. I will say welcome to the rabbit whole
Epiphany is a Jin solo song. I cried to when I read the lyrics.
BTS's message has shifted /slightly/ over time, but their sound has always been rooted in old school hip hop and still is. And they've always thrown in a couple of pop ballads here and there on albums. If anything, I think their music has gotten better. There are still songs of the first album that are close to perfection, but the overall skill & artistry has improved over time because they've worked hard to listen to their fans and stay committed to solid music theory.
Also, it used to be only Suga & RM writing and producing. As time has gone on, more and more members have gotten writing and producing credits. So, instead of saying "their sound has changed" I think ARMYs have the viewpoint of "members individual sound being revealed".
The two with the hat trick you were freaking out over are your two favorites: Jimin and Jungkook. Jimin was in the front and Jungkook in the back.
My boys making me a proud mama lmao
Lol! I was waiting for that part because it gets reactors all confused every time!! 😂
@@AmariLeone I love that they do it live… jungkooks hat trick and what he does with both hats is stunning live!!! Jimins jump and this kid is always doing acrobatics/martial arts lol also Jhope and his I guess bboying? With his movements and dropping to the ground as jimin jumps over him lll it’s so good and the whole group kills it
@@AmariLeone have you watched the first music video from their storyline? It’s “I need u,” and the original version that is 19+ which this version holds the important parts of the storyline and it’s def pretty dark theme wise . It really made me love bts so much more… this is true artistry and every small detail means something in some way shape or form. What they’ve done when it comes to their music and music video content… it’s so eloquent and beautifully put together and that’s not only bts…. It’s their whole team that dedicate everything into these themes, the concepts from set to outfit to lighting … it’s just crazy to me and these things just set bts apart in my eyes…. The fact that they’re stupid talented, hardworking, humble, gorgeous and amazing singers , dancers and rappers… on top of the content itself… I can’t think of anything to compare them too… I love that about them
It’s refreshing to find someone who is passionate about music and craft, recognize that BTS is more than just a boy band. You are articulate, intelligent, and open-minded-that’s rare in reactors and much appreciated. I, too, am baffled by those who would close themselves off to a world of wonder simply because of subtitles. English is not a prerequisite to genius.
I’m sorry you lost subscribers over your recent dive into BTS. But I think that’s very telling. The problem lies with them, not you. I’m sure you’ll discover they’ll be replaced many times over with others, like me, who can’t wait for your take on something we feel a part of and want to share.
Please never apologize for length. I could watch your very expressive eyes taking everything in all day, and I find your insights and passion compelling.
Best of luck with your dreams, Esaveo #Grammys. For me, BTS is a constant source of inspiration. I hope they will be for you as well.
English is not a prerequisite to genius

How beautiful this whole comment was, is definitely not lost on me!
I just want you to know most of us army are gonna sit here and watch the long ass videos with you. Plus you are great at reacting to them. I love hearing your opinions and what you have to say. You also need to react to Who is BTS? The seven members of bangtan. So you can learn about each individual member.
Right I love watching reaction videos because it allows me to see new perspectives and opinions
@@snowfairy1838 Exactly. Finally someone who actually says something interesting as a reaction! It's always the same and I was searching for some good reactions for so long.. 😣 And finally found someone!
Btw. It's kinda funny, because I like anime too, so I totally get what you're trying to say.
@@user-ds6qf8un8d same
BTS "Long ass videos" are the best. Yes! LOL.
This is how I feel too. He's actually watching the video, plus he has some general knowledge about life and he knows about the entertainment business.
Haters are not Army as this is against what BTS stands for, so just ignore them.
BTW I loved this and no matter how long it is. We watch Hours of live streams that we cant understand and watch it agian once it gets Sub-Titled. So stay true to your reactions, please.
Please watch "Who is BTS?: The Seven Members of Bangtan (INTRODUCTION)
" - by SUGA & spice
Also check of xCeleste chanel - her stuff is AMAZING
Then check out "Ddaeng" - the rap song you liked
Also Dope & Fire - love them
Preach it 🙌 BTS ARMYs are a legit healing force of nature. It's why I joined up and proudly call myself ARMY.
I like how you worded the rivalry being between “fans,” because that’s exactly what it is, EXO and BTS members themselves have been shown many times to be friends, as well as supporting each other during award shows, and yet a lot of each group’s fans literally tear into each-other every chance they can get, which is disappointing. There’s no reason for it. Both groups are talented, and there’s no need to put either one down for doing what they love.
You can be fans of both, or just one, or even neither, but no matter what you’re a fan of, insulting or demeaning another artist or group (or their fans) is uncalled for.
Also, the most recent album came out after this video, and it sold 3.4 million in it’s first week of pre-orders.
Yeah I specified that it was between fans because I know from being behind that curtain that most "rivalries" are fan or media driven & most people in the industry and super cool with each other (because they all go through similar struggles so they have a mutual understanding of each others problems).
Yes, agree Danielle. Not many Multifandom like I am, I love both BTS and EXO, but when I adore BTS, ofcoz EXO should for other time. Vice versa. Not only Boy Group but Girl Group as well, one time I also in torn between GFRIEND and LOONA girls because they're competed in the same Music Show to get No. 1. But still cool down. What we can do ? Just appreciate them all.
Jin's vocals on "Epiphany" 🤩💕
They didn't just change from hip hop to pop, they went from hip hop to pop, rnb, funk, trap, rock, and much more, they never left hip hop behind, but combining different genres into their own 'fusion music'
They still release a lot of rap stuff, like Ddaeng (btw the rapper you were talking about was J-Hope), Ugh!, Shadow and Ego in the newer albums
Cuz I like their rap line (aka the Holy Trinity) so much, here are some of my favorites from them:
Suga - Never Mind Agust D Seesaw
Give it to me The Last So Far Away
RM - Do You Change(ft. Wale)
Joke Persona Reflection
J- Hope - Airplane Daydream Just Dance
Ego Chicken Noodle Soup Mama
Of course the Cypher series is a classic, also Tear, Love and Tony Montana (group rap songs)
There is a saying among army that you find “BTS when you need them the most” for everyone they each have their own stories some more random and other literally saving their lives.
I remember an army shared their story of them literally about to take their lives and then they heard a BTS song play and stopped in that moment. They stopped what they were doing just because they were curious about what song it was and became an army and is still thankfully alive today. If my memory is correct it was “epiphany” by BTS (Jin) which talked about self love
That's really beautiful!
For me, BTS signature has ALWAYS been their lyrics not their sound. And the way they write their lyrics has been the same since their debut. I also honestly think they haven't really changed their sound, especially if you listen to their whole album. They just their title tracks to sound differently from the previous one they released. But their recent albums still have hip-hop and rnb songs just like their early albums.
Hahaha! I love the anime analogy. I have the same thoughts. Exactly BTS whole discography is their coming of age story. Their brotherhood is also similar to those slice of life friendship animes. We even have villains in the form of industry gatekeepers/dirty K-pop entertainment companies/media and other rival fandoms.
Have you watched/read this anime/manga called BECK(Mongolian chop squad) it's a music manga about a rock band from humble beginnings(the author is a huge fan of RHCP) When I was falling down the BTS rabbit hole, they reminded me so much of the manga. BTS to me in the beginning reminded me so much of shonen protagonists and us ARMYs we are part of their story. We're their sidekicks. We watched and experienced their hardships together that's why we have this bond. NonARMYs think we worship them, this is not true. BTS is our people, like family. So it's personal when others attack BTS for no reason. They are not problematic. They are smart, sincere, humble, polite boys who cares and are grateful to their ARMY. Their music and lyrics are important to us. That transition in sound/genre don't bother me as the connecting factor across their whole discography is their lyrics. Their message stays the same. As they get older they are more mature and they have revisited past works with new knowledge of the world/themselves and this is reflective in their newer albums. We read their lyrics and they will reference a lot of their older songs so it's like a body of work that's never complete as they are still writing new chapters. I love their art, they are just brilliant all around. I'm not a pop or music hits fans. I'm into rock and instrumentals. BTS blindsided me with their brilliance subversively package as a 'boy band' they are rebels, an anomaly in the industry norms. BY all metrics they weren't supposed to make it both in Korea and the west. But they do make it despite all that was against them. They are truly impressive.
I went on and on, didn't i? I enjoyed your reaction. Thanks for being open-minded. Stay safe.
Casey Takanashi Just wanted to say I LOVE your comment 💜
I was drawn to the choreo, initially, and I love the majority of their songs, That's not what made me a true fan, though, and this is what's different: Thanks to Mr. Bang, the founder and now CEO of BigHit, and his brilliant marketing strategy to promote via social media, we were allowed to practically live with the members over several years. They had cameras on them 90% of their waking hours (it seemed). So many shows, and trips, and moving days, and PRACTICES, and eat eat eat. Anyway, they are naturally charismatic, but just normal kids, sometimes goofy, sometimes nerdy, not always pretty, but always such good humans, so easy to love because they love so easily, strongest is the bond they forged with each other. They just make me hopeful (no mean feat) Sorry so long.
The choreo you were freaking out too at 7:50 was their second debut single We are bulletproofPt2
The song with the running on the back thing was Their Debut track No More Dream from 2013
Concerning their style of music changing from Hip Hop to pop: The b sides of all albums still have strong roots in Hip Hop even though their chosen lead single is often more on the accessible pop side. They like to mix in or try out all kinds of different styles from funk,latin neo soul, to rock on one album so they often surprise you (paradise and 133440 are my favorites from the tear album). There are alway people moaning and complaining when an artist changes style. Those who had a problem with it often drifted towards other kpop groups. Most ARMY appreciate BTS for more than just their music and gladly discover the different sounds they come up with.
unfortunately a lot of people still see language as the barrier to music. i’m a teenager who loves bts but i don’t know a lot of bts fans my age. from what i’ve seen, most people don’t like them because of the language that their music is in, i’ve seen people say how they’d rather sing along to their favourite songs instead of mumbling to them or how they’d rather not read the lyrics and some other bs. i think one of the reasons why bts has so many older fans is because older people can get past the language barrier, unlike youngsters who prefer to listen to music in the language that they can sing along to and often don’t care about looking up the lyrics. it’s sad how people can’t take an extra step and look up the lyrics as in my opinion, bts’s lyricism is what makes them so special and is the reason they have so many fans. bts is known for the inspiring and deep messages in their music where they often talk about taboo topics such as mental health, depression, anxiety, suicide, political & social issues & etc. they’re also known for making songs about schools, self love, youth, dreams and more. their lyrics are amazing but it’s sad how so many people ignore it solely because of the language that they sing in. as well as that, the industry is extremely xenophobic and treats bts like shit. the us radio stations have actually blacklisted them and their latest single only got 4 radio spins, that’s it. i’ve heard its because the radio would rather play songs that people can sing along to or because they’re afraid that people might not like listening to a song in a different language and might tune out, making the radio lose its listeners. despite their single only getting 4 radio spins, it still managed to debut at #4 on hot 100. for comparison, gaga’s latest single, “stupid love”, sold around 53k copies first week (if i’m not mistaken) it also got less streams than bts’s single “ON” yet it managed to debut at #5, why? because it had a radio audience of roughly 24,000,000. meanwhile, bts’s single “ON” sold 85k first week, had way more streams than gaga but ended up debuting at #4 only because it got absolutely ZERO radioplay. in conclusion, radio pays a huge role in charting and gives a massive expose to the general public. by getting zero radioplay, it’d be almost impossible to chart, however, luckily for bts, they have a very powerful and dedicated fanbase who buy, stream and chart their music despite the industry being unfair to them. another thing, bts have practically outsold all the western acts in the us and they did it without singing in english, getting no radioplay, getting no playlisting and not doing bundles. they currently have the best selling pure album in the us which is very impressive. the industry keeps ignoring their accomplishments though. the grammys snubbed them without a doubt (it makes no sense how all four of the years best selling albums got nominated except for #1 which was bts), the vmas even made a separate “kpop” category even though bts dont fit into that label anymore as they are too big. why did they make a separate category? because they didn’t want to nominate bts for the main ones despite them outselling almost every western artist? probably. even the brits awards got rid of the “best international group” category as bts, once again, were dominating the charts last year. in summary, the industry is very xenophobic towards bts and language is still a barrier to a lot of people. sorry for writing a long ass essay lol
"I have no idea who those two were..." "threw the cap across the room"
Guess what. They were Jungkook and Jimin (the two guys you pointed out in both the first two videos)
Yeah it's basically become a recurring theme in my videos that at least once a video 1 of these guys snatches my soul & I'm completely oblivious to it lmao XD
I'm sorry you lost sub's due to BTS reactions. There is still a lot of prejudice out there so kudos to you to still move forward and react anyway. I am a silver ARMY - just turned 51 and BTS restarted my heart after a particularly rough patch in my life and I am grateful for turning my life technicolor again. Enjoy your journey. I look forward to watching it. BTS changes their genres every album sequence and there is still hip hop on every album. along with whatever else interests them. They won't bore you.
Where are you? Are you self-isolating yet? They never quit one genre, they just keep adding on. and incorporate several sometimes in one song. You have much to look forward to.
19:17 This year, with Map of the Soul: 7, BTS sold 3.42 million in their first week.
Just wanted to add...the album was released on 2/21/20 and already has over 5.2 million sales worldwide. And that is pure sales; they don't do bundling like most other artists
The walking on the back choreo was in No More Dream, their debut song from 2013. In later live performances, they add A LOT more people and Jungkook holds Jimin up to walk on all their backs...so cool! The hat trick is in Bulletproof Pt. 2. I love your BTS reactions so far. "You nice, keep going." - Jimin, BTS
Can’t believe I’m actually waiting ( and with pleasure, too)
Hope you’re enjoying this ride with BTS and Army. I’ve watched a few of your videos and I really like the way you express yourself, you seem to know your stuff, musician!
Honestly, as far as k pop goes, I never imagined myself listening to it, since pop isn’t really musically satisfying for me, but these boys are damn good at it and are the most genuine, beautiful people while doing it.
So, as I have also been into music forever, know a thing or two about it, studied for years, I hope you find the value in their art, and it fills you up just as it did me. This boy band reinvented kpop, and given their all to give weight to mainstream popular music and they did it staying humble, true to their identity, I really hope you give them a shot even of camera.
Stay true and in love with what you do.
A purple heart from an ARMY 💜
its 12:30 am here in india and i aint gonna restrict myself from watching this!!! an open minded man reacting to bts? lets get this bread! :D
I haven't been an ARMY for too long, but I can say I've been around and have seen alot of their journey and content through the years. They certainly have changed in terms of style and sound since their debut, but their heart, passion, and love for what they do and for their fans is really what makes me love them. They are so genuine I feel like, and the camaraderie and brotherhood between them all is really refreshing and awesome to be witness to. In terms of how I have felt with the changes and such, I will always love them however they sound or look. Because of the multitude of different genres they hit, there is always a song to listen to for every occasion. You want to rock out? Bam! BTS. You want a sad song? Bam, BTS! You want a chill song to relax to? BAM BTS! The list goes on. The different personalities and skills given by the different members also enable BTS to appeal to a wide range of people. With different members being skilled in different areas, people can enjoy beautiful vocals, lit rapping, awesome producing, fire dancing, jokes, etc. I may be biased, but I'm not sure how anyone could really hate them XD
Also, I really enjoy your commentary and opinions on them. They are very insightful and your viewpoints on different things are very interesting. Keep up the good work my dude.
Its a hat trick if you want to see how it's done react to BTS 2019 MAMA Intro No More Dream+ Bulletproof(long tittle but it one performance) .MAMA is a award show in Japan and they perform there
The genre is BTS, and the message is BTS. They have very unique lyrics, with unique rap + vocal lines. Their songs are like a story book. No matter what style their song is, hip hop, pop, jazzy or latina, most of their songs tell about their journey. Their songs are inspiring, empowering, encouraging, ... They always relate to people. That's why with BTS there's no such kind of "changing genre" 😉
Their latest album "7" sold 4.02 mil in the first week of pre-release. Millions were sold in the first 3 days before anyone had any clue what the album will sound like. 7 had the highest debut of 2020 in the USA Billboard 200 charts but the Weekend just beaten BTS by a bit. BTS still hold the record for pure sales though. The Weekend was selling their albums via bundles. Kinda cheating. Lol. Imagine if BTS bundle their album with their concert tixs.. the numbers will shoot to Jupiter. To put things in perspective, BTS sold 4 mil copies of 7 thus far in Korea alone. Their home base. How many Americans act sell that many in America? 😁 Only Taylor has ever scratched the 1 mil mark. Btw, "7" is two albums rolled into one. The Map of the Soul series were meant to feature 3 albums but Jin is going into service soon so they banged two albums in one. There are 20 songs incl the 2nd version of "On" featuring Sia.
It's completely cheating to win. It's a bad business practice too. Because it allows people to lie about their numbers. To me it makes no sense to bundle. The ARTIST is losing so much money just to say .that they are popular than they actually are. Thanks for posting Sariel.
I'm really excited for this. It's my day off, so clearly (being stuck in the house), I've gotta find something else to do to keep me occupied in anticipation for this lol be back in 3 hours!!!
You guys are all so cute, don't get your hopes up too high I'm just your average joe being caught up in this wave lol but I am hoping you watch it I had a lot of fun making it
@@AmariLeone Don't sell yourself short, we watched many, many inarticulate reactors. I remember one say Hi and after the video said, I loved that and that was all he said. Really nothing else.
@@aunthattiesfancifulemporiu6126 That sounds painful to watch....
I just love how human & humble they have stayed though reaching the stars & how they use their songs to tell young people, you are not alone in your feelings etc It makes me proud to see people give them a chance & look deeper into who they are & what they bring. One may not be a fan but dosnt take a fan to appreciate the talent & what they have achieved, a music lover will still see them for who they are regardless of the music being ones cup of tea so to say :)
I am a massive fan though lol but grew up with everything from Opera to Elvis, listened to a lot of metal in my teens & pop & alternative in my early 20s & eventually found Japanese rock & k-pop, I just love music. Got any of your own stuff laying around we can listen to?
Yeah a lot actually, that'll be coming soon :D
I just like their style no matter what genre they do. They just have STYLE in spades! And people need to understand that artist grow up as well as their style. smdh.
Can’t wait to come back and watch this in about an hour! I just watched all your BTS reactions. Thank you for taking a chance on the boys and getting to know them better, you definitely won’t regret it. 😂👌 Also thank you for being so open minded and kind, I’ve seen so many other reactions people have done of them and they are always so close minded and don’t give them a chance by getting to know them better, listening/ watching to different videos, etc. So just a one last huge thank you (I know I’ve already said it multiple times but I am very appreciative) for listening to them and welcome to ARMY (BTS fandom) if you do decide to join us!
1st I love your name lol 2nd thank you guys for watching, I've been enjoying this experience of learning about them a lot & while I'd still go down this rabbit hole even if people didn't watch it's more fun when we all get to experience it together
BTS' discography reminds me of an actual human being growing from its teenage years all the way to adulthood and it kinda mirrors BTS' lives too and teaches us so many life lessons 😭😂. Loving your reactions BTW
The song that u said u listened to and was beautiful "Epiphany" is singed by Jin only, I also love that song so much and I've cried countless times to that song especially since Jin is my bias
This is actually one of the best reactions I have seen to them. I did watch the other videos that you made and I appreciate the fact that you took time out to explain what you thought of them and to ask questions. Please continue to react to them in the future 🙏🏼💜 I recommend Who is BTS:The Seven Members to have a few more facts about them and I also recommend more music videos. Thanks for the great reaction👏🏼
Thank you I really appreciate it also side-note your name is gorgeous!
EsaveoTheArtist Thank you 😂😁 and NP
First off, it took me a sec, but I love your reactions. You’re new but you GET it. You’re analogies are spot on and because of your intelligence / experience you figure things out and make connections quicker than most new fans.
I am a 47 year old proud ARMY member. I fly my flag high and introduce everyone I know to them. I found BTS in 2014. I had just lost five of the most important people in my life including my mom and auntie. I was at rock bottom trying to figure out how to keep living everyday when all I wanted was to not be here anymore. I stumbled across them and instantly fell in love. Little by little, day by day they gave me back my life and gave me a sense of worth and belonging. I remembered what was good about living and what was good about myself. I am telling you, no joke, I am alive today because of them. They are and always will be my angels, my salvation.
Even though I wasn’t there from the beginning, I have seen them progress and mature. And that is exactly how I see their changing style, a maturation. They grew up. It would be weird if they were still singing about school and rebellion and problems teens have. ARMY has seen them go through all their phases and have witnessed them become these amazing men who always strive to be better and work harder for us. They do it all for ARMY. We feel privileged to have gone on this journey with them and are proud of the shining examples they have become.
Well I’ve rambled enough. Can’t wait to follow your journey. There’s a lot of content and sometimes people can get pushy and naggy, but take your own path and take your time. Enjoy this! I have a feeling you’ll be calling yourself ARMY very soon! I purple you! (ARMY saying, you’ll learn!) 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
That wasn't rambaling that was beautiful! & Borahae! (I asked about all the purple hearts & some pople filled me in)
I've been a fan since debut and honestly, it feels like we've grown along with them. I think that's part of what makes our bond so special. We went through everything together. So when they blew up in the West, we were nothing but proud. Nothing but supportive. Sure there are bad eggs in every bunch, but they're few and far between. The transition felt natural. ♡
The clip at the end didn't show it, but when ARMY sang to BTS Jimin and JungKook bawled. Like couldn't even stand anymore cried. It was adorable. They are so humble.
For me the music growth and evolution was amazing, because the always put love and their hearts ands souls in the albuns, the lyrics and the stories they tell.
They also are very smart and make the albuns into eras, stories they are telling and messages they passing through the music.
I love the Dark&Wild album, but if you listen to any of their work, in all of the albuns they always experiment a lot so I don't think we can label BTS only as pop, rock, r&b, soul, kpop, hip hop.... They do at all.
You should do a first listen to the Love Yourself TEAR albun, I think is the work they experimented the most with sounds and lyrics.
PLEASE react to 'Who is BTS?: The Seven Members of Bangtan (INTRODUCTION)
'!
This is one of the best videos that introduces each member in a few minutes so that you start to get to know them :)
FYI! Eric Nam, the guy around 5:03 talking about how he knew BTS from the start and how they were underdogs, is actually a close friend of Jimin (BTS lead vocalist and main dancer)!!
So about the genre changing, BTS since the beginning were very clear about how they didn't want to constrict themselves to one genre, they actually mix a lot of genres, and I've always loved variety, I like how BTS music is always different. If I feel like listening to hip hop i don't need to go to a different artist, there's BTS, if I want to listen to pop, r&b there's BTS.
7:31 P.S. it's just a hat trick sjsjsjs Jimin didn't actually throw the hat, Jungkook already had one, they made an illusion.
10:04 I'm still proud Peru is in the chart LMAO gives me hope that our fandom is strong and big enough to get a concert one day.
As a veteran ARMY of almost 6 years it's always so beautiful to see someone else fall into the rabbit hole that is BTS. I'm not the kind of person either you would automatically assume would listen to BTS, closer to 40 than 30, a German business woman and into mostly Metal for decades. Still the moment I came across these guys I fell in love immediately and I was never bothered that they constantely switch up their music, as someone else already said: The genre is BTS. It doesn't matter what the dominant genre in their songs is at the end of the day it's the feeling they portrait in their music that I fell in love with. Koreans call it 'han' which is an integral part of Korean music but absent in KPop (or Idol Pop, how they call it)
Okay this made me cry...
Didn't we beat this and get to 3 point something million sales in the first week with their newest album (MOTS 7) or am I trippin?
3.42 as I've been told in the comments lol
Yes and now their Fourth No. 1 Album on Billboard 200 Chart. Legends!!
I'm 50 years old and single with no kids.
BTS's music is like a representation of a person, it grows. I have listened to them since the beginning, and I never hated a song of them. Their school trilogy were perfect, it talks about experiences, emotions of people who are in school. Dark & Wild is really really good too. Their HYYH really captured a lot of negative emotions youth experiences. To Love Yourself and now to Map of the Soul.
I enjoy growing up with their music and seeing them grow up as artists and as persons themselves. Their music is really great and also one thing I stayed is because of the BTS personalities. I can resonate with them and they're my inspiration.
I have been an ARMY since they debuted and have watched the boys grow and change over the years. The transition from hip hop was natural in a way. They grew up and so did their music. I think because they always had a message in their music, the transition seemed more natural - the message was always there. I think that one of the reasons they have remained so popular and even gained more interest is partly due to their ability to adapt their sound, while still saying what they wanted and needed to say. They are very clever young men.
You know y BTS look.so surprised when they were announced as grand prize winner?..that was in 2016..it is because no artist from a small company except the BIG three companies (YG, SM and JYP) have ever.won a grand prize...BTS is the 1st ever group that is not from the big 3 have won grand prizes.....BTS gives hope to artist from small.companies to dream big..to not give up on their dreams..EXO is from SM..the biggest company in Korea (used to now BigHit have overtaken them)..so for me EXO big before is not a surprise compared to BTS struggling to success..most group from these 3 companies make it big easily because they have resources..but not BTS..they work hard and take it step by step even if other fandom falsely accuse them.almost everything..that is y ARMY is protective when it comes to BTS
I'm so glad you got to see this. I did recommend this with my other comment. I jokingly thought my job is done here. I did delete it after I saw you were going to see it. I agree with you with language. I have listened to songs that were in Spanish and didn't understand. Their clothing is amazing. When Army likes something they will hunt it down and buy it. JK mentioned he liked Downey and it sold out overnight. He was having a hard finding it when he needed to replace his bottle. Downey didn't understand why they were selling out until they heard that JK mention them. I hope they sent him a year's worth at least. Suga had on a sweatshirt that a fan had given him and they hunted it down and it sold out. They all have stories about certain pieces of clothing and selling out. BTS wears some on the most beautiful clothing from casual to dress wear.
That's insane! The amount of money they've made these random companies is insane!
"Dream, you will fully bloom
After all the hardships
Dream, your beginnings will seem humble, So prosperous will your future be" -BTS Suga's "So far away"
BTS really work hard for everything they achieve.
If you believe in yourself and your true&sincere to your craft.. the audience will truly appreciate you, and fans will grow organically. Im just happy when you said about you wanting Grammy, you know miracle do happen..
Everyting can happen.
Im friends w/ some Army, even I didnt know them personally, but when we see each others achievements we really happy and proud of one another.. may it be graduations, passing graduate thesis, getting a work, promotion on work, winning in competitions, having a baby, overcome health problems..
We build family thru BTS, we may sometimes have conflict but we learned to respect each other differences, I really love our teamwork, and specially loving BTS music.. Thats MY experience with my friends w/in the fandom..
and regarding transition, BTS taught us appreciate different genre. Not a hip hop fan but now I enjoy it much. Not all are happy w/ transitio but MOST of ARMY love how BTS experiment and grow with their producing music. ARMY is open to criticism, not all but Most, but hating is a different story.
(Sorry its long, just overwhelmed. Thank you again 🙏)
Hey man‼ I am 50, an Army since 2016. I can't wait to see you react more BTS MV, Live Performances and Gag Shows Run.
Welcome to the Magnificent World of BTS‼😍💜💜💜
"We're gonna watch this kid become the pirate king." I know it references One Piece, but there's a song called 'Pirate King' by this group called ATEEZ (A-tease). They're hella dope and have amazing choreography and follow a storyline as well with their albums. CHECK THEM OUT WHEN YOU CAN!!!
Yeah pls check out ateez they were one of the hottest rookie group now 😊
Just a cute FYI to bring it full circle back to BTS... Your current "best boy" Jimin loved Zoro as a kid and told his mom he wanted to become "the best swordsman in the world." So he studied Kumdo, the Korean derivative of Kendo, for 7-8 years 😊
I can't wait for this reaction. Im wfh so i'll just be watching it after works done. Thank you in advance Man.
No thank you for watching & I feel that I'm working today too
BTS has never been super consistent. The school songs and self-love songs aren't separate. Their entire discography is connected in a giant storyline. First they were teenagers, then they were youth, now they are young adults and their discography has followed that storyline. The entire thing was a process or evolution not just of the music but of their personal growth. So I think many of us including myself have fallen in love with this journey like you would a good book.
The hat trick you commented on is a clever illusion. There are two hats, but you only see one hat at a time because of the camera angle. Of course, Jimin and Jungkook pull it off perfectly. Also, right before the hat trick, the dancer who folds at the knees and goes flat to the ground is J-Hope. It blew me away the first time I saw it, too.
I love your shirt! I watched The Ancient Magnus Bride and loved it! So shout out to your shirt! Lol btw I am 46, BTS ARMY and anime fan.
Just subscribed to your channel because of all those haters who unsubscribed. Keep doing what you do. Love your reactions.
Thank you I appreciate it! I'm fine losing stupid people like that anyways.
As my username implies I'm a 67-years of age Black female fan of BTS.
After my retirement in 2015 I've become a world traveler. I've visited Seoul South Korea, also visited all the guys home towns.
I have attend their concerts in Asia, Europe and both North a d South Americas.
I'm learning about the culture and language.
BTS gave me the courage to not sit home and be bored.
This Grandmother is ARMY strong. I Love and Support BTS unconditionally.
I've been an ARMY since early 2014
I gotta say BTS does every genre of music awesome
Like I didn't even liked hip hop at first but when I heard them for the first time I just couldn't help it
And then the pop music,EDM,R&B,Whatever they do
It's just awesome
It’s still a big deal in America imo to have such success with songs in other languages than english, because you’ve listed 2 songs now: decpacito got famos because of Justin Bieber’s ver that had lot of Englisch in it and Spanish is basically America’s second language or is the one that is most familiar to a lot of people and gangnam style was a trend. BTS whole albums are successful not just one or two songs. It’s getting better now days, but there is still a long way to go.(Again imo:))
Ok now u haveeee to react to who is bts
Loved the reaction ❤️💕💕💕
Every era for BTS brings a new sound. It is like growing up with them, but also, it brings a new topic to fall in love with. I've been ARMY since their Wings era and I have only loved their work more and more. It's always just like an ascension. That sounds weird but truly they just get better and better.
They inspire us to buy books, to study new philosophies, to look at art, mythology. You are constantly learning something new with these eras!
I'm 32 years old and found BTS when I had lost everything. I just happened upon them one day because someone mentioned them in a video so I had to go see what they were about. Their music and story touched me so much. I cried. And then I laughed for the first time in a long time. I stopped being afraid to wake up every morning. I got out of bed. I made friends who have stuck with me ever since. They saved my life in a time when I no longer wanted to live. Millions of us have the same story. You'll never regret choosing to walk with BTS and ARMY. 💜💜
ALSO!! You would def enjoy the Save Me webtoon which covers the Bangtan Universe Storyline!
Now, just to have my thought about BTS. I have been listening to Kpop eversince I was 12 years old, and in the 28 years of my existence, I can confidently say to you that BTS is different. They are the first Kpop group that I have stanned (considering that I am listening to Kpop since I was 12). I have met and listened to A HECK LOT of Kpop music and artists but I TELL YOU THEY ARE REALLY DIFFERENT. I mean, who would think of having an album based on a book? And have it aligned with what happening in the real world right now. They always deliver especially during LIVE performances, they are disciplined individuals (they are the first kpop artists that do not have scandals) and considering that they are in the industry for 7 years already, they’ve maintained their passion and HUMBLENESS. From a lover of Kpop, they are the only group that I have ever met that NEVER FAILED their fans cause they always bring it every single time. Although many criticize BTS fans, I am proud to say that BTS are my artists. I am a fan of them. I am proud of my boys and have very high respect for them and their craft.
Please watch who is BTS next!!
React to BTS Mic Drop MV Then if you like it the Live Performance of mic drop at MAMA 2017
For choreo, you can see the full thing in their dance practices. I would recommend : No, Bulletproof pt 2, Spring Day, Fire, Dope
To fully understand the messages in their songs, check out DKDKTV interpretations of Ugh, Bapsae, Spinebreaker, Ddaeng, Shadow among others.
For live production, check out BTS MMA 2019
Enjoy the journey and welcome to the BTS rabbithole!
I have been a fan since 2013 and I watched them transition into their current sound. For me personally, I thought the switch allowed them to be more authentic as a full unit. They did great hiphop music and it certainly allowed for some incredible artistic expression but it wasnt the most synergistic match for the vocalists.
The change in sound happened in 2015 with "I Need U" and it was the turning point in their careers for sure. Still to this day that song is my favorite because it was such a milestone in their careers. I think their new direction allows for all the members to shine and showcase their talents. Their initial sound was great for that phase of their lives but they outgrew it. I'm happy that they found a way to grow with their music instead of being limited by a label like "hiphop" or "R&B."
Speaking of their older sound, my all time favorite BTS song is "Paldogangsan." It's an old school rap song where the members talk about the dialects they speak and their home towns. It's really great. You should check it out to better understand the members and where they came from.
23:30 This is Love Yourself Her "Serendipity" Comeback trailer by Jimin. I have a feeling you will appreciate it. The live performance is mesmerizing.
It is dope!
Yo that hat tricked had me questioning my reality also lol.
At the time when I joined ARMY in 2014 during their hip hop phase, I was and still am very open to most genres of music so the transition didn’t bother me much. In fact I loved their transition from 2014 -2015 as this is still my favourite era. I just appreciate that they still stayed true to themselves and continued to create music that can comfort people.
To me they never changed their message. They're still continue with their message from the beginning until now. Also they are add more genres in their songs that what make bts different. But they always include hiphop in their songs. THE GENRE IS BTS.
thank you for reacting to BTS
5:18 Home i love this song 🥰
Edit: oh i get it im sorry , the song with that coreo its No more dream
20:31 That was Jhope and the song is Ddaeng
26:30 Jin's vocals getting the appreciation he deserves and I am here for it
Shiiiit me too lmao!
I’m 56, ARMY since 2016. I’ve been to see them 5 times, and they inspire me to be a better person and love myself better! 😊
Thank you for your enthusiasm and thoughtful reactions! (And I don’t mind at all that you pause.)
I liked first. Ill come back after work since there is 13 hours to wait. Lol
I LOVE IT! & yeah I pushed it out a bit to give everyone a chance to be like "oh he made another one" lol
Damn, Im gonna be at work...ugh..
EDIT: Just watched it, great reaction..💜💜
No worries love, the video isn't going anywhere so you can watch it when you get off (if you so choose)
So many people going to work...it's still Shelter in Place here until May at least.
@@ceci8556 yeah in the US at least it's about the job you have and where you live, I work in the medical field so I'm still working
@@AmariLeone Oh my, you take care of yourself. I'm in Texas, a live-in caregiver so, no change really. But you really be careful ok?
@@ceci8556 Thank you, thank you
The transition in their music style was very organic. There was always a WIDE array of songs on their albums.
What I love about bts songs is they're all so different. None sound the same. You never know what you'll get from them. They still have hip hop and R&B songs
Lol each album of BTS has a different sound
And each song within that album has different sound as well😀
Got here 4th? 💜💜
Hey your presence here is valid no matter the order!
@@AmariLeone thank you💜💜💜
Loved the reaction! I just wanted to explain something you pointed out in the video. You seemed very surprised/impressed with how many albums they’ve put out in their career so far. For someone from the American music industry (where artists can take even years of break between albums and still top the charts) this may seem a lot, but in kpop this is not uncommon at all. The kpop industry is very competitive and fast paced and if groups are absent from the public for a long time, people start loosing interest, so kpop artists put out mini albums more often than full albums and that at a high frequency and with a lot of promotions.
In kpop it’s basically: the busier you are and the more different things you do, the better you’ll be perceived. For example in America, when singers go on reality shows, do acting in movies or things like that, it’s kind of a sign that they’re loosing relevance and it’s often looked down upon, but in Korea it’s almost the opposite: you will find a lot of popular idols/artists going on variety and reality shows, doing acting and hosting/MCing at the same time as making music in order to broaden their spectrum and advance their career, but it’s a good thing for them.
(Edit: most groups also have their own variety/reality shows that are available on UA-cam; for bts that is “run bts”, a fun variety style show, and “bangtan bombs”, which are more candid and often show behind the scenes from what they do. If you want to get to know them better while having a good time, I’d recommend checking them out on your own time)
The work ethic and persistence these people have is crazy, as you also mentioned. Kpop groups work crazy hours all year round under very harsh conditions and for very little pay (bts is lucky in that sense, as BigHit entertainment treats and compensates their artists a lot better and more fair than many other companies) and often sacrifice their teenage years, education and social life in order to become and stay successful (as you probably concluded from what I said above lol).
PS. Sorry for the weird English, I’m not a native speaker and sorry for the long essay, I kinda got carried away. And to my fellow kpop fans who read this: if I forgot sth important or said something that is an untrue fact, please correct me (in a respectful way😊). (Edit2: this comment is not totally bts-specific, I just wanted to inform you of a difference between American and Korean industry)
Don’t sweat the haters brother! Your reactions are awesome 👏 anyone who drops toxic negativity is missing the message of this music and hopefully they realize how to be happy. Keep up the great content and chase your dreams!
They were teenagers who have grown up. The transition was necessary. People do change, grow and learn through time. If their music didn't evolve with them then they would not be what they are. If they had the exact same sound for 7 years then I don't think it would have worked. I appreciate that they try new things and put their heart and soul into their work and the passion that they have makes it work because of their passion. Their message is delivered to everyone who listen to their music without prejudice. With BTS you never know what their next song or album will sound like they give everything to their music and their fans. The different styles help people all over the world and the fact that they constantly try to not let barriers hold them back by trying everything they can/want. I love every sound they have.
so true!! BTS saved my life, for real. i always read comments saying , you dont discover BTS, BTS discovers you. and i genuinely relate to that. i will always be grateful for their songs. 💜💜💜
Thank you for reacting to this! I am here for your journey down the rabbit hole for BTS 💜. The hat “throw” is impressive but a visual trick so don’t freak too much 😎💜. Yes there is a LOT of competition in the KPOP industry and some of the drama has been triggered by the other companies trying to hurt BigHit and BTS and some from other fandoms who believe their favs should have gotten as big as BTS has.... there are people claiming to be ARMY who are toxic, but they are not real ARMY so please ignore them if they try to start something here. The guys work SO hard and deserve all the love in the world. Thank you for being open to them and us. ☮️
When you listen to their discography from 2013 to present IN ORDER it doesn't feel like a change, it feels like a story, like a journey. The bonus of having multiple music styles in their discography means whatever my mood there is a BTS song perfect for me.
As a self confessed "anime nerd" you might prefer to start this BTS journey at the beginning ...
-2COOL4SKOOL-
~ No More Dream
~ We Are Bulletproof Pt2
-O!RUL8,2?-
~ N.O.
I nearly started to list all the songs so I'll stop ... but those three ... start there it's their baby year, their hip hop style, they are angry teens and instead of hate they are speaking up against oppression and government it is awesome.
Last year, at 25 I went to a BTS concert in Wembley and we all sang the "Answer " song (I am the one I should love)...honestly it was so moving, to feel the positive and loving energy of around 60k people at one place is truly unique and I will treasure the memory forever. This is why BTS is so different, you dont just go to theri conerts to have fun, their concerts are a weird kind of a therapy that promote real values that are really hard to find nowadays in everyday life.
Tbh you'll see a ton of fans saying they prefer their older music, but honestly when they made the transition, for me, it was okay. They still have their rap songs sprinkled here and there in each of their albums. They also release free music in their soundcloud. So to say i "miss" it wouldn't be very accurate, since they never stopped making it.
I think BTS was very smart about how they transitioned their sound. Their discography is a like a journey of a child growing to adulthood...like a coming of age story. It stands to reason that as child grows, his perspective changes. BTS’ music reflects that in as much as their sound might change, the message and heart does not. And they are also clever enough to have a lot diversity in their side tracks that they do not alienate their older fans.
Welcome to the genius of Bang “Hit Man” Si-Hyuk, he must have planned this for how many years? Wow and to find this kid, this prodigy...Kim Namjoon our leader who you know by now is a fellow genius alongside Hitman.....it was like “Serendipity” which is one song you absolutely have to react to! Love your reactions! And I subscribed after the BTS reaction, so there! You gained one if you lost one at least 💜 here for you dude!
