In bon voyage they travel to a different country and are given a daily budget and have to fend for themselves with no help on traveling from staff. It’s partially to give them a taste of traveling “alone”. In the soop is more of a relaxing one week staycation usually in the country somewhere on a private estate and we just watch them doing nothing but relaxing all day
Heck yes Chan Chan!! Going to check these out for sure!
@@JohnReavesLive' In the soop' was created to replace 'Bon Voyage' during the pandemic..Instead of exploring a new country on 'In the soop' they stay in a house together and relax for a week...
@@JohnReavesLive there’s four seasons of Bon Voyage (2016, 2017, 2018, 2019)
@@bonobonoyaaa.....7729 Exactly. My understanding is that ‘Soop’ means ‘forest’, basically because of the pandemic it was a way to get away while being isolated for pandemic reasons, and still give content to make Army happy in trying times. They had said they wanted to take a break to explore individual creativity for a bit before the pandemic started, but when it did, they stayed together to do things as BTS to help Army through the pandemic blues we all had. Now that it’s more under control, they are resuming the chance to do some solo work and expand themselves as individuals. I have faith they will continue as BTS someday. My guess is, the hiatus is also so they all can get their military required commitments completed.
yes correct as in the soop is exchange for bon voyage probably maybe after their break which actually was planned after the 2020 world tour , at that time after Map of the Soul 7 they should take a break and start solo promotions. Yet due plandemic they needed to postpone solo promotions so in the soop was a part in between of the band promotions new music album and stuff to make them relax but due they couldn't travel abroad they made them a form of staycation.
Jin is such a sweetheart, in his own family he is the youngest, so to have to step up from a young age (19-20's) to be tge eldest brother to 6 virtual strangers would nit have been easy on him either. Much love and respect to Jin hyung.
I love Jin. there's something very comforting about him.
i love and respect Jin.. from having no singing and dancing background... his song Epiphany help me alot.. still my fave song and fave person in the world💜
Jin has been such a pillar to the Bangtan boys. He is calm, funny and endearing which I found just what they need in the harsh idol life. Nowadays, all of the members wish to lead his lifestyle I think because this concept is “gonna try my best and let see where it will bring me” alongside “it’s okay, I’ll take my time”
:) I love this! jin is my bias!
@@JohnReavesLive Borahae💜💜💜
hey man.... just remember every soul that loves BTS is your family now.......more than 90 million people love 7 boys and that means they're no joke. Just LOVE YOURSELF!!!
I love this! ^^
Just listen to what you want to love wut you love ❤️❤️
Well 'Bon Voyage' is about them traveling around on vacation together while 'In the Soop' is more of a staycation
Really want o see these now
@@JohnReavesLive I think they started to do In the Soop because of covid they couldn't travel outside South Korea for Bon Voyage.
@@crystalsnow1138 yeah my answer on my head is the same, Bon Voyage is their regular overseas vacations, whereas in the soop is covid-restricted staycation within S Korea :)
I mean, I love both shows, but I wanna see Bon Voyage this year 😅 but I'd still love it if they decided to release In The Soop this year, it's freaking therapeutic...
@@Funtan_Sonyeondan at least we’re getting a wooga squad in the soop!!
I’m so sorry to hear that you are getting all this hate. I constantly get mocked by family and friends for my love for BTS and it gets to the point that it’s too hard to try to explain their talent. I’ve come to the conclusion that they are the ones missing out and that I should be proud to be ARMY- proud to listen to their music which is what they want. Continue your journey and know you are not alone and you have ARMY behind you!
My family does too, mostly by my brother but his kids love them too and now they come up to me asking all these questions about them. It's so cute because one is 10 and the other is 7.
I don't get it! They are massively talented, incredibly sincere artists....why the hate?!!!!
@@BetterGreta13 good joke kid. Bts are the most overrated group in the world
I had a few people immediately message me with ‘I hear your Korean boy band is fighting and called it quits’.
First, they had it wrong. And second, if you can’t wait to hit me with perceived bad news that fast, I’m downgrading you to ‘acquaintance’. Also, anyone like that is obviously close minded and has no taste.
I turn 50 in a couple weeks. I became Army in September last year.
Before then, I actively avoided them for so long because of crazy fans, not realizing those few crazy fans were outliers. I also had preconceived notions too about what they would be like.
I stumbled across a choreography video and then Blood, Sweat, and Tears and then tumbled down the rabbit hole. They are my every waking hour when not at work and doing other adulting crap.
Now I adore these boys so much. I went to two concerts in Vegas in April. By myself from Alaska. To a town I swore never to go to. To see these boys with my own eyes.
I have always been into alternate, techno, industrial, and metal… then somehow I am here now.
I did not see this coming, but I am so here for it.
As someone who worked for Tower Records at the beginning of the Grunge scene (went out for drinks by Layne Staley of Alice In Chains, and shared a house with Greg Dulli of Afghan Whigs and Nate Mendel of Foo Fighters), I had the opportunity to learn about and love so many genres of music. (Yeah, I’m an older Army). As I grew to love BTS, I took a lot of ridicule from friends and family -it made me realize how biased and close-minded people can be, and these are often people who you would never expect that from. One thing I am certain of is that I can’t respect those that won’t hear BTS or that denigrate them because they consider themselves “too cool” to like them. If someone’s fear of being judged dictates what art they will see or music they will hear, that to me is the epitome of a lack of self-esteem. I too have lost friends over this, but I have found new Army friends for life. BTS’s talent and skill brought me here, and their heart, humor, and who they are at their core is what keeps me here.
And Taylor Nakamoto totally rocks. 💜
i can relate! i was a secret ARMY for months then decided to just ignore or move on without those 'friends' who were saying really hateful things about BTS. im happier now! (and met lots of ARMYs !!)
@@dreamgloww6650 Armys make really good friends I’ve found. Even when we live in different states or countries even, we chat way more than any of my local friends or family.
The first time I said that I loved Bts I was laughed at. Luckily I am an older woman, mother grandmother and laughed back at them. I agree with you about some of the people you know not expecting them to be that way. I have had the same experience. You be well. stay safe and Have a Great Day! ✌💜
This right here. 💜
First off… I am in awe of the Greg Dulli part. I have Twilight Singers lyrics tattooed on me. I am tolerated for my love of BTS. To me the passion for music is there just like with The Afghan Whigs and that is why I love both groups.
So you know RM actually wrote the lyrics to Singularity specifically with V in mind. At the time RM said he had been in hospital recovering from surgery. For all their artistry and talent they are undermined and ignored both in Korea (not so much now, but def earlier in their career) and the West, which is why A.R.M.Y. is so protective of them. They are such humble, beautiful souls, who even with all the hate thrown only give inspiration and positivity. BORAHAE BTS, ARMY & to you John always 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 and THANK YOU Taylor 💜
My first song was The Truth Untold - my daughter was playing it in another room and V's voice just captivated me.
your daughter is a saint!! lol love V's voice and I could see how that would bring you in to the bts world, for real thats awesome of your daughter!
I'm 16 years old, I became their fan just last year but I already know them for a long period of time. Believe it or not but I was 9 years old when I first heard the name "BTS" in the church. I heard them whispering "BTS" and one of the member named "Rap Monster", then I thought "Another group, I bet they are going to disappear from fame after a few months". At that time, I don't have a phone or gadgets, I don't know internet and social medias. So, I thought they are going to disappear then as time passed by, I still hear "BTS"😃. I heard random people walking on the street, talking about a group "BTS" and I always remember "Rap Monster"😂. I saw random street vendors selling their posters, I always looked at their faces, one of the members caught my attention, RM (I don't know their names, I don't know RM is Rap Monster but I always look at him whenever I see BTS). I'm surprised because they are still famous in my country.
I was 12 when I first had my phone but I still don't know how to use internet 😀. That time, I heard one of my classmate mentioning "BTS, I want to ask if there is a member named "Rap Monster" but I'm too shy. After years, COVID-19 came and it affected me. Financial problem, self-hate and one of my friends commited suicide, etc. The world is gloomy and dark at that time for me. I can't smile and I can't laugh, I tried listening to other music but no effect. I came across BTS' Dynamite, I watched it and magically I became happy, I thought "This is music!". I tried to listen to their other songs and I found myself cheering up from my negative thoughts. I became interested to know their names and I am disappointed because there wasn't any member named "Rap Monster" but RM became my bias because I like his vibes ☺. I am surprised when I found out that RM and Rap Monster is the same person 😃. I learned a lot from them.
As for hate in the internet, I ignored them. BTS is famous in my school, so all the students and teachers know them. Fortunately, there's no hate but just ignorance and curiosity. For example, the other day, my classmates are asking me if BTS is disbanding and I said no and explained them what happened.
An interesting thing I noticed as a kpop fan, a LOT of us come from metal/punk backgrounds, myself included. Personal opinion, both metal and punk being less mainstream we were already in the frame of mind that we LOOK for good music, and when we find something that resonates with us we embrace it fully. Additionally, I believe that metal and punk has many of the same aesthetics as kpop. Surface wise, bright and colorful hair, unusual clothing/costume choices that may not follow gender norms, and makeup/nail polish regardless of gender. I think this makes us more likely to realize these are simply part of the aesthetic and we are more able to move past it and into the music and lyrics quickly.
All of the above and the grace of being in my 40s....I just have a whole lot of IDGAF anymore. I like what I like, others don't have to. I can respect their opinions without allowing them to effect my personal preferences.
Walk the path that works for you. If they matter, they won't mind..and if they do, they don't matter rings very true as you move through life. Thanks for your reactions! 💜💞
P.S. My first BTS song was Fake Love.
Oh my god, I feel the same way! Before I discovered and learned to love BTS three months ago, I only listened to metal :D my favorite band (besides BTS) is Bring me the Horizon. My mom always wonders how these two different bands fit together, but unfortunately I can't give her an answer.
1st I just wanna say I admire your resolution to not crumble under criticisms and I want to thank you for staying open minded and giving something that many people stereotype, a chance. I myself am a rock fan however I've always been very eclectic in my taste of music and I know where you're coming from when you say that people have judged you, come at you and have said things about you when you show interest in something that they deem to be either ridiculous or worthy of mockery. I just want to let you know that you are not alone in that and I am happy that you did not buckle under pressure but rose above it.
Marie for real thank you, it has been on my mind a ton but I know that I’m genuinely enjoying making these videos and hopefully spreading some positivity so zero chance of crumbling here! I really appreciate you being here and your kind words!
@@JohnReavesLive11 months later and you're still going strong, I'm really happy because you're focusing on doing what you enjoy and not what people expected out of you. I understand not watching videos one does not have interest in but sending hate is just wrong. Do what you want and be proud. Love yourself
I knew of BTS but never listened to them due to my own prejudices with the language barrier. I didnt dislike them personally I just thought how can I relate to them if I cant understand them but boy was I wrong. The song that got me to click on them was their cover of Ill be missing you and from there I was hooked. BTS made me realize that music transcend all language barriers and i thank them for that.As for Bon voyage like others have said they travel there are 4 seasons many say their favorite was season 4 but ill probably be the odd one out and say I loved the 1st season . They were so out of their element and most of them had hardly traveled and to watch them navigate the world was amazing. BTS have earned their place as the best group in the world, im not just saying it because im a fan , or they make good music but of who these amazing young men have become as human being and through their music and messages they have contributed a lot to society and that rare in any kind of group. Lastly Army are like no other fan base , yes we are protective, passionate and very loyal to the boys but as a group we are a force for good in this world just like BTS. Anyway enough of me babbling another amazing reaction thank you. Oh and thank you Taylor as well.
❤❤❤❤❤
I am 63, and it was a year ago that I decided to FINALLY watch a BTS video. I knew they existed, of course, but I dismissed them as a "boy band." I have been a singer since I was 19. I was all about alternative music. I used to be in punk and New Wave bands. BUT...I saw them on a Galaxy commercial....and the song in the background drew me in. It was "Life Goes ON", but I didn't know that then. When I finally found them online, and their endless content, I was hooked, man. I was in that rabbit hole for good!!! I am true ARMY! I love these guys, love their message, their music, love THEM!!!! They are spiritual beings sent from another dimension to offer healing and love and joy! Thanks for reacting! Oh...and btw...my bias is Hobi. :)
Bonvoyage is travel locations outside of Korea and In the Soop was during covid so they vacationed locally. 💜
Well I need to see these now!
Yes they are all fun to watch. There are four seasons of bonvoyage...1st Scandinavian, 2nd Hawaii, 3rd Malta and 4th New Zealand. The fourth season was my favorite! 💜😊
Mono is RM's mixtape. It's great. Seoul, Bicycle, and Moon child are my favorites.
I really need to hear Moon!! Lol or all those for that matter
@@JohnReavesLive Moonchild is awesome. There is a lyric video for it and Seoul. There’s also an animated MV for the song Forever Rain from Mono. Bicycle is not on the Mono mixtape but is also gorgeous.
I started to listen to BTS in 2015, my first taste of their music was « Dope » but i think is Suga’s song « the Last » that made me an Army
I need to hear that song! Both of them! I’m learning the piano for FIRST LOVE now actually
The first song which caught my attention was Airplane, from J-hope's solo work. I listen to music in languages I don't understand as background while working (helps with my focus issues) but his voice was interesting so I took note of his name and after work I searched a bit more about him and started to listen to BTS and the other solo work too, still as background music. They're varied enough I didn't get bored
The song which made me deep dive was 134340. I'm a nerd so I recognized the number and wanted to know why this band wrote a song about Pluto. I discovered Doolset Bangtan and lyrics videos and that was it. I was lost, **down the rabbit hole**
They even have song titled whalien 52
What a beautiful story....your destiny with BTS because of Pluto. 💜
Thank you Taylor. She made an amazing job. Love it. 💜💜💜💜💓💜💜
🙌🙌🙌🙌 yes!! And for real thank you so much for staying through the whole video!!
@@JohnReavesLive true Army always stays untill the end of the video no matter how long it is. Thank you too for this reaction and to pick up the updated version of Taylor's documentary. 🙏🙏
Theirs something abt Jin's voice that is actually very comforting and helps u a lot always and he has such a pure character. I love him and ofc my bias for a reason💜💜
29:34 I'm definitely drawn to Jin because of this personality too. He is like my happy pill most of the time! Some may have noticed him first coz of his looks and his amazing vocals. But for me, it was his fun personality, and when I got to know him deeper, there's a lot more in there that is very admirable.
So thank you John for sharing your positive energy with us!! Super appreciate you 💜
15:03 "who is become first?", the one who won first at "hit it" first audition it was i11ven. he is part of daenamhyup crew (RM underground rap crew) and he also the original line up of BTS member (when BTS concept is a hiphop group, that all members is from underground rappers except Jhope). half of BTS original line up is from daenamhyup crew, such as RM, Iron (who get recruited along with RM), Supreme boi and i11ven who get recruited through hit it first audition. the other members who are not from daenamhyup crew was Suga, Kidoh and A-tom that also get recruited from hit it audition (lot of famous underground rappers come to to hit it competition at that time).
Jhope is the only one who is didnt have rapper background at that time, but he already become bighit trainee first as dancer, even before RM was signed in to bighit.
Thank for for the info!!! I love Jhope :)
Bon voyage is where they go to different countries and tour around those countries and they have a camera following them and we get to see them being tourist.... and bts in the soop they stay at one location like in a cabin or a house and its like reality show watching the guys chill out or play sports or cook and etc..it gives us more connection to bts. Also, my first song that i listen to from them was Magic Shop because my daughter recommend me that song..thats when i start doing more research of these guys and fell in love with them. 💜💜
Ohhhh! Well that sounds awesome! Both of these would be fun to watch
@@JohnReavesLive if i remember correctly if u want to do a reaction to Bon Voyage and Bts In The Soop you will have to put it on patreon page. They are really good shows tho and very funny..but if you react to Run Bts Tv Show(lol i have to say TV show because of the song Run BTS now lol) you dont have to put that on patreon page.
These videos never get old for me. I am so happy to be ARMY and even though, much like you, my music history was NEVER in pop but rather in rock and metal - I now embrace pop music, rap music, R&B, kpop, ballads - i love it all and I have BTS to thank for expanding my horizons. to the people that feel like they own someone else's ears and give people crap for listening to BTS... I offer you my internet hug and hope one day you can see past your own boundaries and realize that music is universal and an expression of PEOPLE. Borahae! 💜
As an older ARMY whose other favorite music tends to be bands like Ghost, Disturbed, MCR, etc, I get picked on a lot by my family and peers over my huge love for BTS, but honestly I feel bad for people who let their preconceived notion of "this thing is silly and not for me" stop them from discovering things they might really love and enjoy. I was skeptical of BTS before, mostly because I'd heard not great things about stan Twitter and "crazy kpop fans" and didn't want to be a part of that, but then I saw them on Carpool Karaoke and thought they were so fun and talented, so I looked them up to find out their names and the rest is history. I've been to seven concerts, have two BTS-themed tattoos, and my playlist has been taken over by their huge discography.
Honestly life is too short to not love what you love. Screw the haters.
As for this video - I love it, it's one of the better introductions and captures lots of cool stuff about each member. All the guys are so multifaceted that I don't think any intro video does them justice and some can kind of lean into old things that ARMY latched onto that don't necessarily fit the guys now, but you'll discover more of what fits as you get into their content outside of music (Run, Bon Voyage, In the Soop, the docu-series). I'm a Suga bias, for example, and a lot of the intro videos lean into RM's intelligence and Jin's sense of humor, but Yoongi is incredibly street smart and has a wicked sense of humor, too. All of them are smart, but Jimin and Jin are also remarkably intelligent and I don't think that gets much focus. To be fair, the videos can only be so long, and Taylor has done an amazing job. So thank you, Taylor!
I've loved watching your reactions and I look forward to seeing you watch In the Soop and Bon Voyage and Run - I love them and they're such fun shows and relaxing to watch.
Major respect for you. I was a big Alternative/Metal/Rock fan as well and then I had some Korean friends at college that introduced Korean Media and that's how I even ran into Kpop. I was amazed how Kpop combined so many genre themes into a song and also even the rock and metal genre there is insanely good as well. Screw the haters, what matters is what you enjoy. I know what you mean about stan Twitter, I see the craziness that can happen. But overall I've met and seen amazing fans and became friends with amazing and supportive fans. It's always great seeing new people react and actually try to get to know and understand groups, to react and become fans themselves. I also love seeing how fans themselves tell their stories of how they saw BTS or even other kpop artists and how it brought change and happiness to their lives.
For real thank you so much for saying so! I really have been in a better head space since being in the army rabbit hole and I love it here!
@@JohnReavesLive Welcome to the kpop world. We'll always have your back and support you. I sure will. Negative people are not worth your time.
i just wanted to say that the metal scene has extremely shifted.
i'm not someone who just picks a genre and dresses and acts accordingly but i liked metal and rock and i've always been accepted even though not looking the part.
a few years ago it became very clear at a metal festival how much it shifted. there were a lot of people looking at you funny for not drressing in all black or holding up signs, rating you.
before that, it was all inclusive, what mattered was, that you were there, sharing something in common.
they're destroying the metal/rock culture known for its openess and inclusion and i've completely distanced myself.
what i'm saying is, it's not you, it's them for becoming ignorant and elitist.
you can like metal and you can like bts, i don't see where the problem is.
they're very admirable and madly talented.
if people would get rid of their prejudices and give them a serious chance, they'll like them too.
I don't know if it's exclusive to the metal community but now I'm an ARMY, and before that I also come from the metal community, I was a huge metal listener, a guitarist in various bands, etc. When I started listening to less and less metal and got into BTS, and then when I confessed to my surroundings that that's what I was enjoying, I got so much backlash, hate and mockery too. I stopped talking to those people and then they took that as a treason. Some of them even tried to ruin my personal/professional life. Life is tough as a BTS fan when you're coming from the metal community. Because of this boyband "music for little girls" cliché it seems like it's forbidden for some of us to also enjoy all of that. World's fucked up. But I don't care now, I'm not afraid, I'm a 25 year old man fan of those 7 guys.
@@akaRyuka that's what I mean, it totally shifted. People generally aren't that open minded or open anymore. I don't experience it that much with 35+yo people, but those in their 20's.
It's always either or, black and white.
I feel this too, actually, with another one of my favorite bands - Ghost. They're one of those bands that metal fans either really love or really, really hate, and the gatekeeping and shaming and all that is just ridiculous. It really makes it difficult to enjoy the music and performance and share that with other people. Same with BTS.
People should just like what they like and as I said in another comment to John, I feel bad for people who close themselves off to things that they might otherwise enjoy just because of prejudices.
Yes V has a jazz song called "snow flower" there's a lot of saxophone in that song . There's even a saxophone break in it but I don't think it was taehyung playing it
My first song was Butterfly! My granddaughter was into BTS and in 2021, my husband, (her grandfather) passed away and she dedicated Butterfly to and for him!! Ever since, I've been listening to them. I really love their music, because they really help everyone who's down, and they are the best!
Bon Voyage follows them on their group's vacations; one year, apparently, they came to New Zealand. In The Soop, follows them on vacation at a holiday home in Korea. I think it's a holiday rental often used various artists, etc in Korea (don't quote me on that).💜
Ohhhh! Nice!! Well I can’t wait to see them!
@@JohnReavesLive actually In the Soop S2. The property was bought by Hybe and renovated it to be their S2 set. so they don't rent anymore. The S1 house was rented btw.
That scene at the end of Wembley always gives me goosebumps. To have all those people learn Korean lyrics and sing their song to them in a primarily English speaking country must have been so surprising and affirming. I know it wasn’t just English speakers there, but other languages as well. Amazing. Hang in there John. I don’t know why people have to be so mean. You are just appreciating something new outside your genre because you love all music.
My first BTS song I ever heard was when Boy with Luv first came out! I find it funny that the first person I saw in the music video and heard was Jimin, as he starts the song, because he instantly became my bias and has been ever since haha. I also normally don't gravitate towards the style of music that Boy with Luv is, but I could tell there was something different and special about them. I feel like I really became ARMY after watching their show RUN! BTS and learning about their personalities. To me they are like the funniest people in the world, plus super talented musically AND the sweetest people so how can you not love them :)
like RM always say "Let the haters hate" :) let those people hate on you and let ARMY loves you more for doing BTS reactions :) do whatever you are happy with, we're here to support you.
Cess ku thank you!! RM has had his fair share of haters and if anyone knows how to deal with them it’s him!
I really love making these reactions and feel like I’m spreading some positivity so I’m for sure not stopping!
Thank you, Taylor. My first song was "On." I watched their carpool karaoke, thought they were funny and was a little curious about them. (Curiosity gets us all as cliche as it is - "I just want to know their names...") Then the On Kinetic Manifesto showed up on my recommends. I was amazed. Then Mic Drop sealed the deal and well, here we are. Also, your friends need to get over themselves. Why does you exploring BTS have anything to do with them? No one is asking them to like BTS or even listen to them (although they should at least hear some stuff before deciding they hate it). My best friend and I both enjoy reading and mostly like the same genre of books, but I happen to enjoy action thrillers (which she does not) and she likes horror (which I do not). We don't give hate to the other for our choices of enjoyment. It makes no difference for our friendship. Just keep doin' you, John! 💜
Screw the haters. We love ya and appreciate the love your showing to bts
:) thank you Michelle!
The first BTS song I really heard was On - The Kinetic Manifesto Film version. Their vocals, and dance, took my breath away. Then, when Jungkook hit his high notes... Not only were they great - but they didn't hurt. So many singers hit high notes, and I feel like a dagger through my ears, and like they're bleeding. But I have never had that with any of BTS. Even their highest notes don't hurt. It's wonderful.
Then I started learning more about the guys, and was drawn, initially, to RM and Suga's personalities. But now I love them all ( though Suga is my bias). 💜
Right? I feel like maybe they’re pushing to hard but bts singers seem natural. Suga is awesome for sureb
Yes!! I have similar experiences!! That’s why I don’t really listen to other male singers that are said to have nice high voices (fx Sam Smith), because their voices, especially the high notes, really grate on my ears and I cringe every time 😖
(Although that has actually happened with Tae/V as well. When he hits that high note live in his song Stigma, Idk why, but I really don’t like it at all. It’s super irritating to my ears. But Jungkook and Jimin are practically perfect in their higher registers! I do also really enjoy Jin’s voice, but his style of singing isn’t really my favorite)
@@ProcrastinationQueen I get it. There have been a couple of times - and only a couple - where I have "felt" the note. It hasn't been painful, but I have certainly been aware of it. Like something brushing against my inner ear; odd, but not unpleasant. But I know how easily someone else might find it painful. Or even how, on another day, I might.
Still, for the most part, they are quite "restful" for my ears.
But it's strange when other people are enjoying music, and you're just thinking "Make it stop!" because it's so painful. It's - nice? - to know I'm not alone like that. Still, I am also sorry that you feel the same pain and discomfort. Take care. Borahae 💜
I was first introduced to BTS almost four years ago by my sister with the MV "Fake Love". I thought thr song was beautiful but it took me some time to really appreciate BTS, after seen more content from them. Soon after one of the most difficult times in my life happened and BTS (and k-pop in general, but mostly BTS) helped me to go through this "darker times". Well, I'm still struggling until this day, unfortunately my life is very tough but art is my escape, it's one of my main reasons to keep going (along with my cats) so I'm very thankful to them. And I'm OT7, can't pick a bias even if my life depends on it (I hope it never happens 😆).
*What was the first song that got me into BTS?* Well, Dynamite was my first BTS song, and DNA. I watched them on a reactors channel in October of 2020, when I was watching Blackpink reactions. My daughter had introduced me to Blackpink, and I liked them a lot. I kept hearing about BTS, and seeing them in my suggestions, but I kept avoiding their videos. I didn't want to get into boy bands. (preconceived notions). Then I finally gave in and watched the reaction. It was Kim Namjoon that drew me in, with his blue hair, deep voice, and sparkling eyes (and his dimple). Jimin's voice though. Their dancing and their confidence, as well as overall performance. But the song that made me BTS ARMY was Black Swan. I resonated with that one. Their message and personalities is what made me ARMY. They are so genuine, confident, talented, and compassionate. And they have swag for days. Anyway, I could go on and on. BTS was exactly what I needed during the pandemic, and they became people I love.💜
I love Taylor. Thank you Taylor for your amazing work. I have subscribed to her channel, and I've watched both of her videos multiple times. I even voted on her polls. Good reaction. Thanks.
:) for real thank you for sharing and thank you so much for spreading the love Taylor 100% deserves it!
My daughter who loves music got into BTS and I liked songs I could sing along to which was hard when I don't speak Korean. But I saw them on Ellen and I saw some of their personalities, their energy, their talent, their professionalism performing Mic Drop and Airplane ll. I had so much respect for them, I started to look into them more and listened to more of their songs. I was hooked, I liked everything I heard and saw of BTS and ARMY. I found that they are helping me through one of the toughest times in my life and I am learning to love myself more little by little.
Bon Voyage is when they they take us on their travel abroad and In the Soop is when they take us on their time away in the forest. Bon Voyage is like traveling to different countries and experiencing different cities. In the Soop happened during pandemic so they traveled to a secluded area and the 1st season was more like camping and fishing by a lake, which happens to be my families favorite thing to do.
I am so sorry that people are giving you a hard time at all, you are so positive, accepting and give off a great vibe all the time. I hope you get more love and acceptance from here on out.
I like every genre of music but I say I favored alternative and hair metal music so I loved that BTS has a vast array of music. I was not a fan of most American rap but I find that I favor BTS's rap songs more. RM is my bias but I am also OT7. I often cannot believe I like every one of their songs, dances and meanings. The amazing thoughts and meaning behind all of their work amazes me. I love everything about BTS and ARMY, their love, mind, heart, and soul.
Thank you Taylor. Thank you John, I love watching your journey 🤘🏼. Much love. 💜
I was introduced to BTS not so long ago while watching a live of the song Attack on Bangtan. They changed my life and I am so glad to be introduced to these gentlemans when I need it the most
6:48 In Bon Voyage (4 seasons), they travel abroad. In In the Soop ('soop' translates to 'forest' - 2 seasons), they go to a secluded house in the Korean countryside and rest and relax.
8:30 Your shock at their sound is a very common reaction. I think its indicative that too many people judge without knowing, in general in life. I'm really glad you kept up with this.
16:10 Loving more than just metal doesn't make you any less a metal vocalist. You'll develop a broader range of technique and use.
52:45 Aaand now I'm crying again. Good times.
Overall...we're in this Bangtan shit for life. They teach us so much every day.
Borahae, John!!
I had no clue that meant Forest!
@@JohnReavesLive and at bon voyage, they must do everything by themself without help their manager or staff. such as ticketing, check in, grocery, cooking or buy some food, organize their schedules, manage limited pocket money that staff give to them (they didnt allowed use their own money. so they must use the pocket money that staff give to them when they want buy some food, grocery, transportation etc. so they must really frugal to spent their money lol.. it's funny coz they are a millionaire but they must become really frugal on bon voyage 😂)
(the staffs only help them book the hotel. but they must find out where is the hotel by themself, like what public transportation that they must take etc). so it will be more like traveling adventure
Thank you so much for YOUR time (as well as Thank You Taylor for the amazing guide!!) I get so emotional re-watching all of these moments. Even her draft version of this guide brought tears to my eyes. SO much love and care was taken into making this guide so well thought out and informative. Thank you, John for giving Bangtan a chance because I am really enjoying your journey so far. Keep up the amazing work and as always, borahae. 💜
Honestly, I wouldn't even worry about the people who decide to send hate because you're not fully reacting to metal, a surprising amount of metal UA-camrs have shown support for BTS and kpop in general. It's even become a kind of running gag, you can find plenty just by searching. But if you ARE willing to branch out a little more into kpop, there's a female group called Dreamcatcher who's songs are a mix of hard rock, metal, and badass anime songs. They're also touring in the US within a month, they're a popular choice for most metal fans that want to explore outside of BTS.
But your reaction was wonderful, it's always amazing to see people learning new things and being able to share how excited they are to learn more about the boys. The main difference between Bon Voyage, along with it being in a different country, is that they're given a limited budget by staff and then set off into the country they're in. That means translating, budgeting, groceries and things is all done by them. Whereas for In The Soop, they're asked before to make a list of things they want to do on a relaxing vacation in a random location, and the company supplies it all while they're free to do whatever they wish.
I can't wait to watch more from you (also I got really distracted by that outro song while you were talking about the video... FFVIII? One of my favorites. 💜)
I actually found BTS while I was watching reaction videos of their funny moments and crack videos. I didn’t even know they where singers.
However I started watching people react to their lyrics. (I also realized that Dynamite was them! I heard all over the place but didn’t know until later) During covid and going to school I was kind of lonely. So I went to YT to watch videos. I realized watching their funny videos I started laughing more and comforting me during covid. I seen people react to the lyrics to; Epiphany, Mikrokosmos, and Answer: Love Yourself. These songs and their messages made me decide to call myself Army.
I loved how humble they are, kind, caring, accepting, etc. Majority of their messages I agree with or respect.
I know I mentioned this already but I will say them again. While a few things (very little) I don’t fully agree with BTS or maybe some ARMY, I think these quotes really say what I want to say:
“Cannot boundary lines exist without being battle lines?” -Nelson
“We don’t have to agree on anything to be kind to each other.”
Also it is amazing that BTS built a community of accepting and love. While ARMY come different parts of the world, have different perspectives, religions, language, age, gender, etc. We all come together with our love for music, BTS, their messages, and even helping each other.
Once again I sorry to hear all the negative comments/people…I love your positivity 💜 Borahae
Edit: BTS make me want to be a better person and all the members we can learn from…
In the Soop makes me discover how talented Jungkook is at painting. I'm so shocked and still is. Bon voyage is basically a comedic show in disguise of vacation lol I'm so amused by their antics and clumsiness. The things they say sometimes are absurd lol and keep in mind you really have to pay attention to the subtitles to enjoy it fully.
Its kinda crazy how many songs RM has written and are of such different genres and are hit hit, like Serendipity, Singularity, Spring day, and ofcourse Rap verses, etc it's great, i really appreciate all of them for their immense contribution even behind the camera
Bon Voyage shares their overseas vacations through Malta, Hawaii, New Zealand etc and In the Soop is their brief staycations etc. Love your reactions John, like RM says haters are always gonna be that way, but please know you are definitely appreciated. Yup Jin brought RM a bicycle for his birthday. The running joke was that RM had no license and because of his clumsiness they all figured the world was better off without him having it, so they'd all volunteer to drive him whenever he needed 🤣😂 but RM loves cycling lol I have heard that he finally got his license recently though. Please thank your family for allowing you to spend time with all of us.
As for me I am truly OT7 (one true 7) meaning I have no bias I love them all equally and will lean towards whoever depending on my mood or need. JHope was 10yrs old when he started (learning) dancing and entering various competitions.
I love this! and for real thank you for sharing, I can't wait to see both those shows!
Danger technically was the first song I heard of them back in 2014, however, the song that I'd say had me cross over from fan to full blooded ARMY was Butterfly. I had just lost my best friend to su!cide & that song, its lyrics, & stage I related to so intensely that I knew these guys were different. That song said everything I had wished I had said to my friend. It perfectly incapsulated my thoughts & feelings that I was having through my grief over her loss. I've been ARMY ever since. It was the best decision I've ever made 💜💜💜
Taylor did an amazing job and I'd like to thank you, John, for always making sure to get that message of love and positity out. I face pushback from everyone I know IRL (sorry you're dealing with it) but my family finally came to understand that BTS makes me happy and they're supportive of that. My 82 yo father even got excited about their UN activities last year. Poor guy is stuck in my car a lot listening to me sing in Korean and he now knows more about BTS than most octogenarians.
to be honest , i brushed off Kpop for many years coz i thought why would i listen to something i dont understand?! all my friends, co workers were into it and i just couldnt relate. then 4 years ago, i was grieving for my cousin's death and was just in a daze for months so i was just absent-mindedly surfing the internet, watching YT videos just to pass the time. then i came across a korean game show where celebrity geniuses answer MENSA-level questions and explain the answers. thats where i first saw Namjoon. he was so cool! i checked out his group and said ah this is BTS! so i watched their MVs and i loved the lyrics and the messages they put out. i couldnt pinpoint the exact BTS song that made me ARMY. maybe Crystal Snow, Butterfly or The Queen, Spring Day. or Namjoon's MONO . i got out of that slump, thanks to their music which was like therapy to me. and i regretted why i didnt check them out sooner. 💜
Dreamgloww I have been the same way, didn't give bts a chance for the longest time because of who knows why but when Meg was persistent in asking me to check out songs, it just took one day and I listened to outro tear and now here we are, full on ARMY!
@@JohnReavesLive wow!! Tear is an intense BTS song. im so glad i found your channel... and thanks to Meg 💜
What a beautiful gesture Meg. I'm so happy to see you doing this John....it's a great intro. There were 4 different "Bon Voyage" series...each were international trips that they went on together (Europe, Malta, Hawaii, New Zealand). "In The Soop" in Korean means "in the forest" and it was their Staycations ( x2) during Covid in Korea. Hopefully the love and appreciation you get from ARMY far outweighs the negativity you are getting elsewhere. 💜 Thank you Taylor and thank you John for reacting.
BTS feels like family to me. I am an older ARMY and everyone I know thinks my love for BTS is insane at my age. However I don't really care what people think. I just get annoyed that they think it's a joke. You can't please everyone in life and everyone has an opinion but the best thing to do is just ignore haters and do your own thing. Thanks for sharing your reaction with us today. We are all allowed to like what music touches us so do you.
I love how you were saying Jhope has a different voice in each song. In his newer version of Blue Side, you get a taste of so many different facets of his voice and singing/rapping style.
Enjoying your reactions to BTS!
Thank you so much Josette!
Thank you, Taylor! Taylor works for ORG Entertainment as a video editor and turned her boss on to BTS, which is why she made this video. She asked everyone for feedback on her draft and we all gave it and I can see that she listened to everyone. My few suggestions to improve were in this final one.
Thank you Taylor. And the first song I heard and made me love BTS was Jin's song "Epiphany". Epiphany changed my perspective on my life. ️ 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I have heard about BTS first in maybe 2015 around Dope release. That was when I got a Twitter account and saw a lot of people talking about them. I also think I actually saw Blood Sweat & Tears when it released, but I didn't have a UA-cam profile, since I barely came here. So I pretty much forgot all about them for a while. Then in 2019, since I still kept hearing about kpop and BTS in particular I thought I would check them out. I saw Boy With Luv trending, so I watched it, but that particular song was not something that could sell me on them at that time. I thought it was catchy, but didn't really grow attached. I randomly played a few of their songs on Spotify and even added Euphoria into my playlist, but that was the end of it at the time.
Then in 2020, one of my close friends became ARMY after watching ON Kinetic Manifesto and wouldn't stop talking about them 😂. I wanted to know what was so special about them and started watching their music videos. Though the very first video I watched at that time was actually a live performance of Boy With Luv they did for James Corden in their studio when quarantine started. I remember texting my friend and asking her who was the guy in the pink sweatshirt, because I thought he was the coolest 😂. It was Suga 😂. I've watched a lot of their MVs over the summer and even watched the Dynamite premiere, but I was still just a casual listener. Didn't know their names (though I watched an introduction video, I didn't internalize much of it), didn't really know much about them in general.
It was in October 2020 that my friend decided I should start listening to their b-sides. So she sent me Magic Shop and said I would probably like it. It was an understatement. Love at first listen. I admit I looped the song for like three days straight (didn't know about streaming rules then, lol), looked up the lyrics and tried to learn them in terrible Korean pronounciation. And I started learning BTS' names and their history and just fell down the rabbit hole completely.
Fun fact though: the very first video I actually seen from BTS was before their debut. They released a Harlem Shake challenge 😂. After I became ARMY I came across that video again and I remembered that I have seen that one back in the day 😂
same with the Harlem Shake video!! i clearly remember watching that when HS was trending.
DNA was my introduction to BTS. I'll be 51 this year, proud to be ARMY. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Love your reactions and positivity!
As part of the 9th anniversary of BTS, here in our country, Philippines, there are multiple projects held by different army groups. One of which is the EAT JIN CAMPAIGN where they feed 100 Street children ♥️ and every members' bday, army groups hpld diff charity projects and campaigns which is really amazing i must say. 💕
Thanks Taylor! 💜💜💜
Fellow metal head from down under, Army since 2016, Blood Sweat & Tears was my first Bts experience & I was in love immediately! But their positivity & messages of self-love was what broke me out of a really bad phase in my life & made me Army for life! Stay strong & stay you! Borahae 💜💜💜
Thanks Taylor and thanks John!
Keep your positivity !!
(Usually) silent viewer here! Just wanted to say thank you for the positivity, love and openness you show towards the tannies! I don’t usually enjoy reaction channels that much, but I truly appreciate your content (even beyond bts) and your comments! I’ve been an army since I was in 6th grade and I’m now a soon to be college senior so to watch their immense growth from the bottom is insane, and it makes me happy that their growth comes with new people as kind as you are who supports them and gives them such kind words! I’ll look out for more videos and I can’t wait for you to dive into the BU!! Have fun and good luck x7 !! 💜💜
I discovered them in map of the soul soul 7 era . And fell in love with them in July 2020 because I randomly watched one of their run BTS episodes and I couldn't stop watching the show till I found myself a fan and I started listening to all their albums with live performances
Zero Oclock, Mikrokosmos, Answer Love Myself, Epiphany. Those songs had made me into this fandom. Every their song suits with my mood on each day, Happy, feeling loved, bored, lonely, excited, missing someone. Im surprised that their song is not simple. A lot of metaphore. But, I instantly understand that at first listening maybe because I can relate.
My first ever BTS song was Boy with Luv MV. Not my taste, I grow with Scorpions, Dire Straits, Queen, Mettalica, LedZeppelin and all this rock/metal music, and I've never heard about BTS or even Kpop at th time. But the song was so poppy, bright, the MV so colorful, the guys so energetic and Jimin... well Jimin captivated me at the first gaze (and he still do, years later) . I wanted to know more about the group, their music, their story , the guys personality, and then I fall deeply and joyfully in the rabbit hole. They help me a lot during hard time, and I need them I my daylilife. I get a lot of bad comments , not really hateful, but contemptuous for loving BTS and talk about them on my FB account, and in my real life. People are so closeminded ! But nevermind ! (a raw Suga's song, and a word that Jimin ongrave on his chest...) Suga said also you will love our music if you listen without prejudice, and it's true. I'm proud to be an Army.
PS: little request : can you please pause the video when you talk ? Because 1: we can't hear you well and 2/ you miss some part of the video. Thank you John.
Heard about BTS when I watched Stephen Colbert's late night talk show, when he asked Paul McCartney about BTS breaking Beatles' 3 #1 record. I looked them up and Spring Day live performance was first song came up on YT. Got hooked instantly and been ARMY since 2019. Suga and Jin are my bias but absolutely love all of them. Thanks for this reaction. This was best intro by far. Thanks Taylor! 🥰💜
I just came across this video just wanna say I really like your positive vibe, and how appreciative you are! I'll be watching all your videos from now on. Keep doing what you want and love, we'll be cheering for you! 😊
For real Dica thank you so much for saying so!!!
I had my preconceptions about BTS too, I had heard about them probably in 2018 ish but never actually checked them out. I have heard kpop before because one of my college bffs was into it during 2010 ish, and I remember the group she was into had catchy songs but the lyrics esp in Eng rap was mostly meaningless so I kinda judged BTS without even checking out their lyricism.
I found out my favourite athlete was a fan so I checked out their dance practices and performances in early 2021, and was wow’ed. Then I came cross a subbed Magic Shop live performance and that song was my ARMY moment. I was having a hard time at the time and I just starting sobbing during Magic Shop. I clearly remember that as the ‘Ah I’m ARMY’ moment.
I have friends who would make snide remarks about BTS (she was a rock fan) and saying how listening to their music is like torture and I’m ??? cuz objectively speaking even if the music isn’t to your taste, they really don’t make bad music? Basically I just don’t speak to those friends about BTS lol I have my ARMY friends for that.
Interestingly Suga said he wants to do more genres of music so he’s been writing game ost, commercial ost in the recent year.
Thank you Taylor, amazing job
I'm 55 from Australia and I've been with bts from the beginning they helped me in my time of need and I listen to them every day I love their music, message and how humble they are even with their success 💜💜💜💜
The first time I opened my heart to BTS was at last year's Sowoozoo Muster 2021 concert the one with the 1.33M paid viewers 😁 My ARMY cousins invited me to watch so I went with an open-mind bc I used to be super anti kpop. The song that really hooked me was when all 7 members performed Daechwita. I was like, "who tf is this?????" And after that, the rest is history
Thank you Taylor and thank John. Borahae 💜
I'm thankful to reactors like you.Specially now, it brings me comfort that even if they will concentrate more on their solo projects n Jin might serve in the military soon, I will still see them along other ARMY s.I love learning about them on my own but I find it more interesting to discover BTS all over again.
Thank you, Taylor... This was AWESOME!!!!!!
You should check out “Rise of Bangtan” a docu series. It is very well made with detailed info abt how BTS came up from their humble beginnings to present. It really is worth watching
Hey, this is the first video of yours I have seen (Thank you recommended tab) and there is a lot I want to say to you; First would be Thank you. Thank you for stepping out of your comfort zone and giving the boys a chance. Even if you were to dislike their music, you still manage to show your appreciation to their hard work. But thankfully you like them so thats a big bonus. Next I would like to say Thank You for not caving to the hate and staying strong. In the end, love will always be stronger than hate, those people that hate just to hate are just sad that they cannot find true happiness, although I do hope they find something that brings them joy some day so they quit trying to drag others down. Finally I have to say, I love your shirt. Captain Yami and Gordon will live forever in my heart lol.
I look forward to seeing more videos of yours!
Army Forever
Kitty thank you so much for this comment :)
Thank you Taylor for creating this video and thank you John for reacting to this video! You are a really positive and amazing person you nice keep going Borahae💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I love Bon Voyage and also In The Soop. In The Soop is much more relaxed and chill, since they're literally just enjoying a vacation together, although they do have to fix their own meals which can be it's own kind of fun. Preparing at least two meals a day for seven hungry young men is not easy. Whenever you get around to watching In The Soop, I strongly suggest that you make sure to eat something first. If you don't you'll end up very hungry watching the show.
Bon Voyage, on the other hand, is a bit like Run! BTS in that the boys are given missions to carry out while on the trip. These missions teach them life skills that they might not have any opportunity to learn otherwise, living as K-pop idols. Budgeting money, using public transportation, checking in for a flight, packing their bags for the trip, grocery shopping on a budget, etc. They learned a LOT through Bon Voyage and the process of their learning is frequently hilarious. Also, they loose things a lot. I never realized just how much they tend to forget or loose until I watched Bon Voyage. Some of them tried to check in at the wrong counter for their flight. Some of them didn't realize that they had to transfer to a different bus and walked the second leg. One of them got impatient waiting for the bus and just took the next bus to the middle of no where. They loose tickets, luggage, electronics, and more luggage all over the place.
Oh, and yes, RM is scary in the kitchen and also very clumsy. You should check out one of the compilations showing why his nickname is the "God of Destruction". JK is so good at so many things that it's easier to just say that he's good at everything than to actually list all of the things that he's good at. There are compilation videos of his many talents, too. Taylor works at a company called Orig Entertainment. They have their own reaction channel with Taylor helping people in the company to react to and learn about BTS. She's awesome and I love her introduction video.
My first song from bts was euphoria by jungkook that's why he is my bias and I love him and started listening to bts and there is no looking back🐰💮❤💜✨✨✨✨
We are a loving positive place. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your channel. I am glad you are enjoying this journey and that is all that matters.
This is such an amazing video from Taylor... the best out there and we all love and thank her for her dedicated hard work and time. So glad you watched it but sad to hear you personally have met with negativity from some for the reactions becauae you definitely dont deserve it. At this stage anyone dissing BTS clearly knows nothing about them or what they stand for both as artists and compassionate human beings. Unfortunately some people refuse to take their blinkers off which is sheer ignorance and yet... it is them judging BTS and us a shallow minded or obsessed fans of the superficial lol 💜
I love how RM categorized the percentage of their Success, instead of saying cliche things like "Oh I'll give 100% to our Fans"
He mentioned Everyone who is behind their Success, n thts a Great Leader right there. BTS don't fake it, like many other Artists do. n Even tho BTS is the one who made Army and their small company This big by their Hardwork, Amazing Music n Lyricism, he still gave themselves a small portion of their Success when they r the one who deserves the most, thts why I love BTS 💜💜
Thank you Taylor thank you John BORAHAE 💜
Min 51:22 Army surprised Jin 💜for his birthday 💜
The first song that got me into BTS was "Idol". I was at my lowest and BTS came in while screaming the lyrics "you can't stop me loving myself" gave me strength. That's when I knew - I need to know more.
I discovered BTS in elementary school. N.O randomly popped up in my UA-cam recommendations, I was an active listener to groups like SNSD and Super Junior at the time but not the newer groups. I was heavily bullied because all of a sudden I started growing and developing acne. I started listening to BTS and became an army in 2015. I saw them as older brothers/uncles that were super wise. During middle school the love yourself series was a big help to me finding a way to love myself. I remember wanting to share BTS with everyone because they were just so amazing from music to their personalities to their content to the messages they put out. When they started taking off in America from the Love Yourself Her album, many people around me started hating on them. I didn’t understand why even when they explained it was due to the language barrier and because they were, well, a kpop group. Seeing the boys win awards and perform at American Award shows was super exciting. The more famous BTS got throughout the years, the more I had to hide my love for them even now. I started listening to many more artists in kpop whom are really talented too but never lost sight of BTS. They are the sole reason why I’m still alive. It’s great to see how they’ve grown throughout the years even if I wasn’t with them from the start. The Grammy nominations and the trip to the White House made me cry, it’s crazy seeing how influential and sincere they are with what they do. It’s great they’re taking a break to rest and focus on themselves, couldn’t be happier for them to enjoy themselves and expand their solo music. When they come back as a group it’ll start their next chapter and will be even better.
I love how up to date this is! Well done!
As for my first song, "Dope". Came up randomly, and I was on a search to find out more about BTS after 1 listen. 💜
Thank you Taylor!
In the soop = house in the mountains by the lake
Bon voyage = Sweden, Malta etc
😊💜
I can't wait to watch these!
Thanks Taylor 💜.... My first song was The truth untold I bought my daughter the album and she listen non stop for weeks .... I have always been more of a metal fan but BTS gave me the opportunity to get closer to my teenage daughter through music .... 💜
6:49
Bon Voyage is a traveling show. They go to a foreign country (for example Malta, New Zeland,...) and they get a budget and explore the country. They did it once a year for like a week or two.
In The Soop was created in 2020 during covid when they couldnt travel for Bon Voyage. In The Soop translates to 'In the Forest' and it is members staying somewhere in Korea for that week long vacation and just chilling
Its funny how everytime they say JK was 15 years old when he joined people forget the korean age he was actually 13/14 years old when he joined.
Yeah in international age he was like 13, that's really young
Mind you; I'm OT7 but if Jin to me is honestly my spirit animal and life philosophy.
Many at the beginning of the journey tend to not consider Jin too much at the beginning, but somehow as you keep going (talent aside) it is funny how his presence is just so comforting. Just wanted to say that about Jin real quick 😂 Also so happy you ARMY, regardless of the negativity or people's refusal to give them a chance, you know like I do that having them in your life wasn't a step back, if anything (at least for me) it thought me that this world is not all that bad. Borahae 💜
You r really a good person! I love your channel
For real Dora thank you so much, that’s the first thing I read this morning 🥹
Thank you for responding back to me! You're the first person, ever to send me a message! That's how cool you are!
Bon Voyage was their travel show pre-covid where they visited Europe, Hawaii, Malta and New Zealand. In The Soop was during Covid, so they stayed in Korea in 1 house with more of a staycation vibe because the world was locked down.
Taylor has done an incredible job on this, it's amazing, so yes, Thank you Taylor.
Dynamite was my first BTS song. I suggest that you listen to Jimin high notes, falsettos and raspy vocals by Em, he is beyond amazing, also my bias. Borahae
my bias is also JIN🥰 He really a sweetest Person, An amazing voice, incredibly handsome , funny as hell and a Complete whole package of perfection!!. By reacting to his songs and his videos You will get to see his amazing talents and how good kind of personality he is.... 😭💜 I really missed your live stream John 🥺💜btw did you deleted ahh!?
Waahh good morning to me! Thanks for this John! Better grab a popcorn for breakfast.
Lol good morning J-Lee!! Going to be a great day!!
In the Soop is when they stayed in a house to rest and have fun. Bon Voyage is trips they made to other places. Thankyou Taylor!!! We have already given her love in her video!
My first BTS song was DNA, which I heard for the first time in 2017 after their first US live performance at the AMAs. I fell down the rabbit hole almost instantly--but they released the Mic Drop Remix MV soon after and I was an ARMY forever. They have so much range as musicians, they are funny and just awesome people. I feel truly fortunate to have discovered BTS and ARMY. This whole experience has been so special. Anyways, I love your reactions. And you are right...Taylor is amazing! She worked so hard on this.
So Bon Voyage was their yearly show they released that had them traveling to different countries for each season! So basically like a travel/vacation show. In The Soop (In The Forest) was created during the pandemic since BTS could no longer travel outside of South Korea. It's more of a relaxed, staycation type of vibe. There's 2 seasons of In The Soop. After the first one was so successful, they remodeled multiple giant houses, created a pool, and a tennis/basketball court just for BTS for the second season!
I can't wait to see all of these!
I'm only partially into your video but I completely get the hate and judgement too! I'm in my mid-30's and all my married friends with kids judge me so harshly. I've always loved a wide variety of musical genres and i've found 4 or 5 different genres in just one kpop song more often than not but everyone just goes "all you do is watch the little Asian boys singing all the time..." it's ridiculous and unfounded because the boys are so talented and have worked too hard to receive such criticism. My mom and daughter listen to them a lot but my dad still shakes his head, so every time the BeeGee's come on I joke "God, they sound like SUCH girls!' Hahaha. I wish people were more open-minded though because through BTS I was able to find the confidence to realize my personal worth, leave a toxic marriage and am more happy than i've ever been and a better mom because of it. You may have hate now but stay true to what you want to react to cuz you'll still have supporters cuz you're awesome! Rock on, dude! 🤘
P.S. That last part with Army singing "Forever Young" for BTS and them getting emotional made me feel emotional since i've watched them since about 2015/2016. So cool and powerful!
My first song danger, when I heard them on Korean Music Show in 2014 and I already started to stan them
In simple words, Bon Voyage is like a Vacation where as In The Soop is like a Staycation!!
