I feel that Hobi is saying that he wants to repay our love and faith in him by touching our hearts even if in the smallest way, with the lightest touch like a butterfly. I love that he chose to write this song as a temporary goodbye to ARMY until his return. In his live he mentioned that he poured his heart and soul into this song and I feel this will come through to ARMY'S as they listen to it.
I was thinking the same. 💜
Same OmO same 😍
I came here to write this whole paragraph...
We Will miss u our only hope and sunshine ❤️💜
"To repay you even from afar, just like a butterfly" Strap in, rant incoming ;)
I take this as him expressing his wish to repay everything we the fans have done for him and given him. The previous line, "Even my walk was made of your love and your faith" kind of makes this meaning obvious when you read them together in my opinion. This song is also kind of his "farewell" sendoff to ARMY before doing his mandatory military service. He has now officially started the enlistment process, so I feel like he's saying with this specifically that he's grateful for how far he's come and for the road he has walked and even while he's far away (doing his military service), he will continue for us and come back to us again.
Now, the butterfly could be a reference to the theory of the butterfly effect itself (BTS has incorporated it into their storyline before, so I don't feel like it would be a stretch to think of that meaning here, too). I think you know what the Butterfly Effect is, but in case you don't, it basically describes how the flap of a single butterfly's wings can lead to a tornado forming elsewhere. It goes in line with him being far away from us for a bit but still trying to repay us for what we've given him in the hopes that it reaches us.
BTS also has an older song called Butterfly (such a beautiful song, btw!!), which I think this line is also a reference to! Some of Butterfly's lyrics are:
Will you stay by my side
Will you promise me
If I touch you, that you might fly away, that you might be shattered,
I’m scared scared scared
I would stop the time
Once this moment passes by,
that it might become something that didn’t happen,
that I might lose you,
I’m scared scared scared
BTS have expressed their fears of ARMY leaving them while they're away doing their military service, and they continuously ask us if we will wait for them to come back again. With this in mind, I think j-hope is also asking us to please still be by his side even while he's away. That he is always thankful for our love and our faith in BTS, that he will always try to repay us for the things and opportunitues we've given him, and that he asks us to promise to still stay by his side until after this moment (his military service) passes.
Anyway, those are just my immediate thoughts on this line :) I would love to hear what others think of it?
Stop, you made me cry again and I just stopped! I totally agree with your take on this and the reference to "Butterfly", one of my favorites. Ever since that report about Taemin's difficulties with the military service I worry about the guys having the same issues. Somebody please make me feel better about this...
wow, that makes so much sense, thank you
This song is like a “thank” song for Army, before his Military Service. Jin also did it with his song “the astronaut”. Now its time for Hobi 😢. But you’re starting this journey, you’ve a lot of Job to know and Love them and their music. Enjoy!
And FYI there is always a behind the scenes of every MV. You should Watch it, also their show Run Bts, you are gonna have fun!
Jhope explains his lyrics:
"For me, this song opens a door to my next chapter. I wanted to share new music as a gift to all of my fans. The song includes lyrics that say, “To repay you even from afar, just like a butterfly.” The message I want to deliver is that just like a butterfly, with a flap of my wings, I hope to reach as many people as possible, giving them strength and comfort"
The butterfly effect metaphor from chaos theory where it's thought that a small change in initial condition can have major consequences in the outcome of that event.
JCole has been j-hope's idol for a long time, he formed who Hobi is. J-hope wrote this for Cole. He interpreted Cole's lyrics in dance, which is what he used to do when he was just starting out.
What I love is in Cole's lyrics even if you aren't religious it still resonates. It has a sense of the awe and beauty of life.
A butterfly can be symbolic of so many things. Changing into something better. A transformation. He is going into the military, so things will change. Butterflies are light and don't hurt their surroundings. For me, I love the idea of in that concrete jungle a beautiful piece of nature (a bit of God's creation) floats around in the wind and if you pay attention it will always be with you and will give you a moment of divine hope.
Anyway, loved your reaction.
And this song is amazing. Reminds me of the 80's when I was full of hope.
I am a Shakespearean actress and people have always been surprised by how much I love Hip Hop and rap. I love lyrical rappers. They are poets.
😘💜🧡🫰🏻
"to repay you from afar, just like a butterfly" he's talking about the Butterfly Effect, how small things can grow to have far reaching consequences. BTS also have a song called Butterfly, which talks about their fears that the love and support of ARMY that propelled them so far will one day fly away like a butterfly.
edit: lol we were all typing the same comment at the same time, when i was writing this there were only two others
lmaoo yeah, I clicked comment on mine, and suddenly it went from one comment to like ten xD
JCole is JHope's idol. (even naming himself)He was heavily influenced by him. Once you have gone through more of BTS discography you will understand the butterfly references & the universe refrences. The Golden Corral reference means he looks at things as more of a buffet, than a top 10 list. I'm sure ARMY will give you more context.
J hope such a legend
I don't know with the butterfly either! For me, I wondered if he meant the butterfly effect. Like he's hoping the good things he does will ripple and improve the lives of others, even "from afar" because he can't possibly reach all of us. But everything he does is still "as always, for us" :) thanks for another thoughtful reaction!
to repay us like a butterfly. Its like, we've helped, and let him fly, and so he s repaying us with a beautfiul sight, even from afar. Thats what i get from that line. When you let a butterfly fly away, you re left with a beautiful sight, its wings, its way of flying, everything, just makes you happy to watch it.
That’s our Sunshine Hobi💜💜💜💜💜💜
Jhope and j Cole!!!! Love! Now it's time for ASTRONAUT by BTS Jin x Coldplay 🥰🥰🥰 looking forward
as it pulled at my heart strings but also it was beautifully done and I loved how nolgastic the mv made me feel also I loved j coles part but our sunshine shined brightly in this song
A butterfly can make you watch with wonder and a smile! J-Hope is saying that he wants to say thank you ...even as a butterfly! From a distance, making you smile!
J-hope's also enlisting so this is his goodbye song. He's leaving his good energy with us while he's gone.
I know they have a song called butterfly, I wonder if it's related...
Loved the reaction thank you💜💜
I think what makes this song have twice the impact is knowing how much of an idol jcole is to jhope how much respect he has given him by basically letting him have the song the fact that its not feat. jcole but WITH jcole. Also knowing its a goodbye see you later, makes it hit harder they have both done an excellent job you can just feel the respect they have for one another and u can tell jcole also put his all into this collab💜💜💜💜
This song is basically Jhope's gift to armys in which he collaborated with his inspirational artist Jcole. He is the next member after Jin who will go to military service. Its a mandatory service of 18 months in south korea & Im not sure about age but I guess around 28, they all have to go to the military but their government gave them exemption bcuz BTS plays one of the major role in south Korea's economy but they getting so hate & criticism from the other kpop stans, media that they are postponing their enlistment blah blah. So in October after their busan concert their company sent us a notice that BTS cancelled their exemption by the government and will serve in the military for 18 months. Jin was the first one who went to the military on December 13th & the next will be jhope (his enlistment date is not out yet) & following jhope every member will go to the military and complete their duty and they promised us to comeback as 7 in 2025 🥺🥺 so Jhope wrote this song before going for armys & assures us that he will cheer for us from afar and the child in the start of the MV is representing army to whom Jhope saying good bye 🥹💜
And just an additional information 😅
They did a free concert for armys at seoul, south korea with 100k attendance while around 50M watching online from legal source meanwhile there are millions of ppl watching through illegal sources😅😅
I think the butterfly line is about how he wants to repay ARMY for what they've done for him and since he can't do it in person, he'll do in through the so called "butterfly effect" - doing what he percieves to be small things, that will hopefully have a large impact on the people who's supported him. I think that's the main meaning, however it could also be a reference to BTS' song Butterfly, which is about the fear of losing someone or something that is very dear to you. There are parts in that song that are basically asking for reassurance that this beautiful moment will last forever, that it won't leave you. So I think he might have used butterfly as a double meaning here.
It's not surprising you wouldn't get the reference to butterfly without context. As you hear more of their music and watch more of their videos you'll see that butterfly or butterflies are recurring theme both lyrically and visually. In fact there is a BTS song called Butterfly.
It represents different things at different times. Sometimes it's just the elusive dream that's being chased. Sometimes it represents delicacy. There are more that you'll find along the way.
J Cole's line about the top 10 list and the Golden Corral refers to the Golden Corral B Buffet restaurants. Show him a top 10 list and he's going to eat.
On a personal note: I don't know that anyone has ever said rap wasn't real but I never listened to a lot of rap because it's not real singing. I prefer melodic/lyrical songs.
Which lyrically can say the same things as rap and touch on the same subjects as rap often does. I have come to appreciate rap more as an art form since becoming ARMY.
The line to repay you from a far is J Hope thanking ARMY before he goes to the military
I love seeing how everyone is interpreting the butterfly line! I personally instantly just thought of their song Butterfly, and how he goes away to the military and it's a goodbye song, having really similar vibes like in Butterfly. Especially the lines like:
I still can’t believe it
All of this feels like a dream
Don’t try to fade away
OR
Will you stay by my side
Will you promise me
If I touch you, that you might fly away, that you might be shattered,
I’m scared scared scared
Relating that line you didn't understand, well, here it is my interpretation: for becoming a butterfly the bug has to pass for hard and painful transformations, like he had to. And now, he's grateful for our support during that process...
I am a religious muslim! And the day I saw this video on Jcole part talking about the miracles of God that many people usually questioned and he said isn’t this universe not enough to be the miracle of God, I was like YESS!! I am with Him! We might have different religion but yes God is exist~~~ Glad to know that you are a believer of God too
always cool to see a fellow believer in God, the muslim religion is pretty cool too!
Love your reaction. J. Cole's vers touched me because I'm also a Christian too who believes God is real and Jesus Christ is ou Lord and Saviour. Powerful verse. And pray God protects and covers ppl like J. Cole who aren't afraid to speak the truth 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hobi!!! Xoxo is love!
Bro honestly, this song hits me hard. One of Hobi's idols was always J Cole and to have him on the track and to shout him out. Sheeesh. The fact that this is his last gift to us before going into the military makes this song bittersweet to listen to. im just honestly waiting for the lofi remix of this song to come out
I also love this song, it gives good vibes!😁
Both of them did a good job.🔥
it’s his song to army before he goes and does his 2 year mandatory army service 💜💚💜💜
Rainy Day.. It's a rainy day for ARMY, J-Hope is going into the military.😭
Golden Corral is an all you can eat buffet style restaurant if that helps explain that line of the song.
Hobi... He is going in military for temporary time and he write this song for armies as a good by and for showing his love that whenever he is walking, running, all of his love is always for us {armies}
i want that u react on the "astronaut" by jin.... he is also in military now a days and he also write this song for armies. i hope u like this song also.
Please react “Born singer"☺️ This tribute to J.Cole's song clearly shows that they respected J.Cole from the time of their debut!
I don't know if anyone has pointed this out for you yet, but since you love J. Cole, I would LOVE to see you reacting to BTS' cover of J. Cole's Born Sinner! They perform it in their "Proof Live" together with a couple other (beautiful) songs! I don't know if you know who Anderson Paak is, but he's on the drums for one of the songs! You also mentioned some videos ago that you would like to react to some of their more ballad-y songs, and they also perform one in the "Proof Live"! Actually, please just react to that at some point (obviously only if you want to, but I really think you will enjoy it! Especially the J. Cole cover :P ) I'll put the link in the answer to this comment :)
ua-cam.com/video/9sJ_I1lHpps/v-deo.html - Proof live! Please remember to turn on captions ;)
The whole melody began with Hobi whistling to himself and turning into this song. He described the song as ‘lo-fi hip hop’ which I think is exactly right. J-hope definitely leans towards old school beats, and record scratching is a recurring element in his music.
Your question about the butterfly 🦋 line made me think about other symbolic uses I have seen in Korean dramas etc so I looked it up, and found the following (several sources all gave similar info):
Butterflies' South Korean animal symbolism is pleasure, a life of prosperity, and joy. In traditional Korean art, butterflies are often seen with flowers. When shown together, they have a slightly different meanings. Together, they represent a state of contentment and prosperity.
Last edit😆 - I think ‘beautiful rap’ describes Hobi’s work perfectly.
BTS actually has a song call “butterfly” too, but it talks about suicide (the thoughts of a suicidal person)
The message for me from this , is that everything he does/says/feels is always for Army... the line about eternity I took as him meaning he'll feel that way forever... There are many different translations of the lyrics and one word can give the track a different meaning... but I think the gist is that he's done this track for those who have supported him and he'll be back to support them when his service is completed....
First🐰🐰
Second 😅💜
I think that a butterfly gives us joy, hope, and beauty. I think J Hope is trying to repay the fans in the way the butterfly does with that same joy, hope and beauty. J Cole's bar about the top 10 list/Golden Corral means that in a top 10 list of rappers he will eat them up like at an all you can eat buffet (Golden Corral restraurant).
finalyyyyyyy🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
love your reactions, been looking to reactors whose into lyrics. This song is like a goodbye comfort song for armys from jhope because he's about to enlist to the military.
Thank you so much for reacting to this, i recommend you to react to The Astronaut by Jin as it also was a goodbye comfort song for armys before he went to enlist to the military
Yes, the BigHit intro changed a while back. Took me a while to get used to it but eventually did. Took me longer to get over it when their logo changed back in 2017. Glad the current logo is what it is today. 💜
On the street means a lot to us, it's kind of a farewell song for J-hope as he will serve in the military soon like all BTS members. Jin is already serving in the army and he left us a farewell song called "The Astronaut" which was written by Chris Martin from Coldplay, could you react to Jin's song. Oh and today is Suga's birthday in Korea, he is turning 30 and will soon be touring solo as Agust D, probably when his tour is over he will also go to the army and BTS will only reunite again in 2025 when everyone fulfills their military obligations, but that's it I think you can already be considered Army so welcome to the family 💜
BTS rap got me interested in rap for the first time. I really love what they are saying and how they say it. Western rap always was never my thing as l could not understand most of what they said ( mumbling or slang) or the rhyming words sounded like something kids do. Since BTS introduced me to rap / hip hop music l can enjoy some raps like J Coles rap verse here but most l stay clear of.
Thank you for your reaction, l am 68 and have been ARMY for 6 years now. Hope you enjoy your journey into BTS, they will change your life just wait and see. Others have interpreted the song so l won’t go into that just glad you enjoy it.
The child u saw in the beginning represents army. And in Jin's solo there was also a child who also represents army. And they let that child go like they "let us go" bcs they join the army yk
thank you for reacting
I think because J Cole was such an inspiration to j-hope, the line with the butterfly could have represented his appreciation for the past. How dancing to J Cole’s music has been a thing that shaped him to the person he is today. I also feel like all the shorts he posted with this song has been for army before he leaves for the actual army. Love this song and your reaction!
Btw j-hope has always been a very big fan of jcole and also met him in Lollapalooza
Sorry for the multiple comments, I'm commenting as I watch heh. But I realized it might help you to know that K-POP technically isn't a genre, it's more an industry! SUGA has, in my opinion, described K-POP beautifully when he said that K-POP is more than just music - it's the combination of the music, dancing, performance, stages, clothes, makeup, etc. So think of K-POP overall as integrated content, where the specific content can be of any genre! And for good measure, K-POP is not just Korean music. The Korean music industry is vast and just as diverse as any other music industry. In fact, the general public prefers genres such as ballads and Rap/hip-hop, R&B/soul, and trot and they generally kind of look down on "idol-music". However, their negative opinion on K-POP is slowly changing in part because of the worldwide achievements of BTS.
A fun fact: while the western music scene developed with the gramophones, K-POP developed with the television. So K-POP is known for the visual elements it brings to music! The history of K-POP itself is actually super interesting and can explain a lot! Some of the founding fathers of K-POP are the group Seo Taiji and Boys, who made music to challenge the strict society of their time's Korea. It was a time where the youth started rebelling and true democracy had finally been achieved.
This is his farewell for now song to ARMY, as he is forced to do his mandatory 2 year military service. Jhope wrote this song last year and then met his idol Jermaine and got him to collaborate. Out of his respect for J.Cole he gave him the lion share of the song. Jhope used to have very few fans in the beginning, but has now taken the world by storm as an artist and a lovely, cheerful and sweet person (he is the Sunshine of the group, the mood maker). This is a difficult thing for him to do, but he decided to get it over with asap. We will miss him so much. Hobi, stay safe and take care - we will be here when you get back.
Butterfly has many different meanings in many different cultures. To refer someone as a butterfly can mean 2 different things for example one could be saying someone is light and beautiful or it could also been seen as someone who is a air headed and can never settle on anything and is always hopping off to the next thing. Butterfly can also mean change/development/rebirth . There are so many different connotations with the word Butterfly
Edited to say I've just been informed of another use of the word Butterfly. eg a Butterfly is so beautiful and enticing that everyone wants to reach for the Butterfly but it's too far ahead of us mere mortals.
Wow, next suggestion MV on screen is Arson. Are you ready?😁
Now we just gotta get you going down the Stray Kids rabbit hole too LOL. Everyone mosty starts with God's Menu, but there are literally 100 you could choose I hope you react to them soon as well :)
I think the line with the butterfly continues in another verse. The commas have purpose.
About the part that didn't make sense to you: At the opening JHope is saying goodbye to a young boy which represents saying goodbye to BTS' chapter one, and beginning BTS chapter two, (military interrupting, solo careers, etc). He sings to ARMY that everything he does is all for "us" ARMY and him. From "afar" is he can't physically be with ARMY but he is with us like in their song "Butterfly."
Thank you for your reaction, I could see you really enjoyed it! I would like to recommend Untold truth, Singularity, Serendipity, Epiphany. There are so many more but its a good start!
There's the saying that a butterfly flapping its wings can cause consequences across the world. I believe it came from the idea of butterfly effect, but don't quote me on that, hahaha. So basically, his bar is saying he hopes something he does, no matter how little, can change something for you, no matter where you are. It's truly a masterful bar.
Can you please react to "Your Eyes Tell" by BTS. I'm pretty sure you'll love it. Love your honest reactions.
“You see a top 10 list i see a Golden Corral”
Golden Corral is a buffet (with good as food😋😭😭) he’s saying he’ll eat up the people who think there on top just bc of a list.
You should watch BTS cover of jcoles born sinner. They changed all the lyrics and put in their own raps but kept the beat . It’s called “Born Singer”. The 2015 live version uploaded by “mar 21” is the one I’d recommend. Thank you for reacting to BTS and jhope. Its always fun to watch your videos
이노래는 제이콜을 위해 제이홉이 만들었어요. 제이콜을 리스팩하는 제이홉의 아름다운 노래.
You need to react to his solo " Ego" .
I found your channel just two days ago. And I've felt like I've seen someone like you from the first time I saw you
but when you said "oh my gosh" here 6:06 it finally hit me..
You kinda look like Shaggy from scooby doo live action😅
I mean if you look carefully there is some resemblance..
react to jin the astronaut. he is the vocalist that is the 1 member to go to the military and did also a music of goodbyes. you can compare the too songs. the child, the love for the fans everything.
you can react also to suga, was his birthday yesterday 30 years old but he looks like 20. he have agust d agust d (name of the song) he rap fast here, Daechwita, that that with psy
for rm you can react to persona (more old song) wildflower, lonely, still live
j hope - he have a album called jax in the box and you can react to more, arson and equal sign (more like rock style)
please react to Boy Meets Evil! religious imagery, phenomenal dancing, it's a J-Hope solo song and it kicks off what is arguably BTS's most renowned concept album 'Wings'
also the live performance for Boy Meets Evil at MAMA 2016 in Hong Kong is insane and everyone needs to see it at least once in their life to truly appreciate BTS's artistry and stage presence
I think you would like BTS’s song “Paradise.” The flow changes several times and both the rappers and the vocal line shines. I think there’s only a lyric video. It’s one of my favorite songs.
Hello 👋
Will you have ever considered about listening to another K-Pop bands?
If it will have been opened up abou it,
You should try 'Stray kids' band🌞😎
They have an unique, special and very high-quality music.
The band is included by 8 members, that work very hard on producing their music by their own way, without any company's intervention.
The band's music genres are different compares to other successful k-pop bands - this band is more a K-hip-hop/rap/edm than a just k-pop.
If you are an open minded person (when it comes to getting know new musics) and will want to consider that anytime, I will be happy if you do some few reactions to their songs I will write as a list:
1. God's Menu
2. Thunderous
3. Venom
4. Maniac
5. Hellevator
6. Restrict 9
These songs are more groovy and rhythmic, but they have also quite and emotional songs too.
I hope you will see my comment🙏
One for sure, I promise you, if or when you will start listening, you will never be disappointed❤️ *I highly recommend you*
*(Sorry if I have some many English grammar mistakes in my comment - English is not my native language)*
💜
You can try born singer adapted by BTS from J Cole's born sinner
Please ..can you react to "Heartbeat -BTS World","Flim out","We are bulletproof - Eternal "..."Life goes on"...💜💜💜
Thank you
You never quite get what you were expecting from BTS. That is because they are innovators, and do things their way.
Butterflies appear to have some sort of magical or spiritual significance in Korea. I may be incorrect here, but they come up a lot in Kdramas.
