As a non-Korean speaker, I appreciate David's effort to explain all the word plays and how hopeful this song is despite the global crisis. As expected, BTS always will always shed light to a very dark topic. No other group can elaborate mental illness/health this way. Thank you Bangtan, you never ever disappoint. Amazing as always! 💜
bbygang also said in his video essay that when RM says "I'm ill" he could also be saying that he (RM) is such a workaholic to the point thay he becomes work itself, so it could be interpreted as "I'm 일". It's a really interesting wordplay.
And I’m ill in 90/00’s hip hop culture is a synonym for being dope, sick or cool. Ergo Nas’ “illlamatic” album - and we ALL know how much RM likes (Big) Nas 😊
@@bark3182 that could be referring to their recent success after they got number 1 on billboard 100 or maybe in general they are currently the number 1 boyband in the world
Ik namjoon's word plays have always been that way and they're very deep and interesting and most of the times they're not exactly what they seem. Something only his sexc brain can come up with lol.
‘it’s got j-hope written all over it’ - Sound of Consequence ! j-hope was the main composer on this song and you know the song would have such variety when it has hobi on it! it’s such a cool song, i personally love the word plays and the very 90s vibe that it has! Thanks for details :D
The whole idea of this song was suggested and put in the table by j-hope. He mentioned it even how the "DIS-EASE" name comes to his mind and the meaning in his interview in Weverse and as the top writer of the song, I truly appreciate and thank j-hope for bringing this topic into the light bcuz it what people is suffering in their own conditions. Also, you can feel j-hope style of music in dis-ease, talking about deep/meaningful messages while having bright beats. And the old hip-hop beats!! j-hope composer did an amazing job there too. Anway, thanks for the video and everyone say, THANK YOU J-HOPE for creating another masterpiece.
Dis-ease is a masterpiece from the writing and composition down to the overall production Dis-ease is the second most critically acclaimed track on the album after dynamite J-hope really outdid himself with this one
@@tulip135 it means that something got positive review from critics Dis-ease has gotten many praises from music critics in album reviews and magazines too. Also dis-ease got chosen too as a stand-out in the reviews
Dis-ease is simply the bst song on the album, it's praised so much by critics and is included in so many lists of top20-50 songs of 2020. Hoseok is genius for making it.
This is one of the many reasons why I fell in love with BTS.. that they openly talk about a taboo topic, criticize the society for its wrongful doings and still make it sound hopeful & not offensive. And thank you David for always coming thru for us non- Koreans, the way u explain the wordplay and nuances of a word or a sentence really helps a lot. So thank you.
i feel like this song can represent j-hope so well: it is so deep on the inside but it expresses this deepness in a unique way, it sounds joyful and hope-full to a lot of people because it wants to heal them
David, I cant thank you enough for this explanation & breakdown. As an ARMY you helped make this special song mean so much more for me. My '2020-anxiety' has been debilitating at times and, now through you,, knowing the cultural nuances of this song, I am once again, validated, heard & comforted by these 7 precious souls. I cant thank you enough. 💜
Just when you think it’s not possible to love j-hope any more than you already do. 🥺 Thank you David for taking the time to do this! I love all of your “explained” videos. 💜
I was listening to this song on loop for the past couple of days and I had my own deduction of what the lyrics meant. It is pretty similar to what you said but I liked a Korean's explanation of the double entendres of certain words and the idioms that we are not familiar with. I am pretty new to K-Pop so thank you for the explanation, David!
I really love this song, thanks for the explanation. 💜 I like so much how Hobi thought to use a confortable rythym to talk about a reality, so yeah, i feel identified.
J-hope has created a masterpiece! Definitely been my favourite song since the album was released but seeing the double meanings that I didn’t know before- wow! These guys give so much with each song but this one really hits different!
We all know how brilliant of a lyricists BTS are but how amazing is David for translating it so wonderfully for the non Koreans... Thank you so much #justdavid always appreciate it 🙏
sometimes I see some people recommending bts rappers and they don't mention jhope. I think it is very disrespectful because they all have their own "color" and they know what they do, rap is not a competition of who does it faster or stronger. I know that everyone has their tastes but I hope they can also give Jhope a chance and recommend him too because his lyrics, although seen in “funny” rhythms, are very deep and have very deep meanings as well, he can give you that ray of light that you need in your life and prepare you to be able to see things with more positivity and move forward despite everything.
J-Hope's parts are what I look forward to the most. I'm rapline biased but also J-Hope is my ultimate bias for that reason he is so unique and he deserves so much more praise and recognition for what he's done and is doing with BTS
His part or verse is what i always excited for in a song.... If u listen to it... His lyrics really deep but j-hope geniusly makes it such a bop and so cool.
DAVIIDD! ALWAYS LOVE YOUR EXPLAINED SONGS VIDEOS!!! Army's were already piecing the bits - especially with Namjoon's ill and work word sound play. But everything else, it's explained so beautifully in this video!! Waaah wowowowowow. It really adds a whole other added WOW jaw dropping factor to lyrics that were - on the surface- already amazing. Just. Amazinggggg!
Dis-ease is just a masterpiece and just everything about it is perfect and i cannot emphasise that enough. From the absolutely immaculate wordplay by hobi and joon to yoongi's dark yet true take on the world to the overall production of the song.,its just absolutely beautiful and flawless. J-hope's artistry is kinda underatted and dis-ease just goes to show how unique his perspective is and how much of an amazing artist he is!! He really outdid himself and am sooo proud. Dis-ease is my #1 favourite from the album and its probably gonna stay that way for a long long time.
this song its soo amazing. It's actually my favorite song from the "BE" album and it has such an amazing message but also its a freaking sexy melody. I can't wait for them to be able to perform it live
From lyrics to melody to over all vibe. You just can't deny how creative and talented they are. They made song so meaningful and beautiful and most importantly inspirational.
This is one of my faves songs of this album, maybe bc of the melody of bc of the lyric, I think it deserves a award itself. It's a masterpiece. Thank you for appreciate it like it should.
Damn the way the complex meaning of the lyrics and the rhythm of the song perfectly fit with each other really mesmerizes me! Dis-ease is my favourite song of the album
Hobi exudes a unique aura It's always amazing how he can mingle diverse topics and music genres together Nobody does it like him and Yeah bts lyrics NEVER disappoint
Yeah, this song deserves more recognition! BTS never fails to give us songs that expresses themselves, something so real, something so relatable. It came into my life just exactly when I needed it I swear i was so sick and tired with all the songs trending that time,, they were all love songs and all about hope and i dunno it just made me feel more like crap cuz despite all this people are feeling all those love while I can't even see any hint of that in my life. Then there comes dis-ease and I am hooked in it after hearing it for the first time. I was able to kind of grasp the main message of the song, and it touched my heart so bad that it rised up to my personal charts. Watching this just gave me more evidence and proof of the main message that I was able to understand upon hearing it for the first time. I was able to find comfort in this song, it's just so relatable and I totally felt the connection, I can even use this song to express myself rn. They are just so real, and so human, and it takes a lot of courage to voice out what's really happening. BTS never fails to give me all this comfort whenever I needed them, that's why I stan them so bad!
This was a really nice and complete-feeling take on dis-ease. thank you so much for spending the time to make this video and bringing this to us, David!
That's it. That's why I love them so much. Yes, they're cute, and charming, and they all had charismatic and beautiful personalities, but the reason I love them is the way they channel thneselves into their music. They're so sincere, it truly inspires me.
I really appreciate you explaining this for the non-Korean speakers in the room. One of the things I love about BTS is that, even though I don't speak the language, their performances always make me feel something. This is one of my favorite songs on the album as well. This and Telepathy were the two that I kept hitting repeat for the first day I listened to it. Understanding what the lyrics say really helps me understand why I am hitting repeat, if that makes sense. And the song reflects my situation during this pandemic even though I am in a completely different situation from them. My job has continued as normal because I am an essential worker, but I live alone and haven't seen family or friends in person for months. I haven't gotten an actual hug since March, which causes a whole additional level of dis-ease.
in addition to all the meanings the title could have, it is also (of course) a reference to the covid-19. basically bts/jhope really expressed how they feel rn and critiqued society WHILE making a fun reference on the current situation.
Thank you so much for your effort to ensure that non-Korean speaking audience would understand all the hidden meaning of the word play. Out of all the verses, I love the bridge the most. It gives me that pump up feeling every time I listen to it. Now, knowing the meaning, I'm amazed by how BTS's sincerity can unbelievably be delivered to the listeners even when we don't understand a word. Coz I've been battling to relearn of who I really am and accepting my true self, my weak self. And it's as if the bridge talks directly to me. I'm so grateful for this song.
Thank you for explaining it to us! It means so much to me because I know how the pandemic of Covid19 causes mental illness to a lot of people I know. And thank you BTS for your music for healing!
I always enjoy DKDKTV's 'Explained' series. It's asking for a lot but I wouldn't mind an 'Explained' series on the whole 'BE' album. Great job David! can't wait for the next one :)
the fact that this explanation vid only has abt 64K views...my gosh nothing from those top viewed lyric vids could ever compare to this informative vid!! Thank u david for such explaining, and ofc BTS thank u for the wonderful music u guys create 💜
Thank you for this explanation and for your take on how it might help Korean society be more accepting of mental-emotional illness. Even before I learned what the song is about, it was my favorite song for its beat/vibe/feel. And being a psychotherapist, I appreciate the song and message even more now
David serves deeper explained videos again! Yaaas!! Amazing!!! It's truly meaningful with deep messages plus as jhope said, the beat is a hopeful vibe rounding off with the final bridge to really give you that blast of sunshine like YOU CAN DO THIS! omg love it!!! Also the VIDEO EDITING HERE WOW especially that bridge part, perfectly done, can be a FMV, yes i will like and share. Love this!
Thank you as always for taking the time to make these explained videos ❤️ they always bring new meaning to the songs we already love, we appreciate you!
Thank you so much for this. 'Dis-ease' is actually my favorite track from BE; I just instantly fell in love with it. When J-Hope gave his explanation about his song and said that it also meant "bottle", I was like "this makes perfect sense, 'cause bottles are fragile, too. If you drop them, they break. If you drain them, they'll be left empty and hollow. If you fill them up too much, they won't be able to contain any air, thus drowning them." But bottles can, in the same context, be the enemy. Don't drink too much "coffee" and make it your "rest." (note: I'm not making any assumptions or pointing fingers, I'm merely amazed of the many ways one can interpret this song) Anyways, I apologize for this long comment. Again, thank you and stay safe.
Didn't think I could love this song any more and then you come out with this explanation. Love the sound of the song and the lyrics are so meaningful and relatable.
Thank you David!! I'm so glad I found this video! I was eagerly waiting for the #Dkdktv explanation to this song since "BE" came out! 💜 Love the song, lyrics, the old school hiphop and the changes inside a single song!! Masterpiece 👏🤩Thank you J-hope and BTS for you comforting hug in form of the "BE" album! P.s. thank you David for emphasising the other traks on the album. The billboard hot 100 achievements are amazing, and we are so proud, but in my opinion the other traks are amazing too and definitely need more attention! Thank you for that! Have a happy, healthy new year everyone 💜
here in the uk how much talk about mental health in school everywhere is unbelievable. There is mental health awareness week , suicide prevention week and stuff on the tv and there is just so much talk. That I know everything inside out
I loved. . .LOVED what you said at the end of the video, " 'Disease' is the kind of song that might help reduce anxiety and bring back courage and hope in our society."
Great explanation as always by David. This is the reason why I started watching his channel with Danny (DKDKTV). Glad to see him getting a wider audience. Looking forward to more vids like this.
Korean, just like all languages, it has its own unique saying and expressions. Thank you very much David Kim for taking the time in your videos to explain.
OH MY GOOOD this is so GOOOD lmfao. I have a hard time understanding the song with the usual translations found online, but this video makes everything so clear, and it makes me love the song even more (this was already my favorite song in the album and it just got better). Plus, learning Korean myself, learning about the idioms and the wordplays make me realise how smart BTS is!! This is so great, thank you!
I've read several translations of this song but couldn't really grasp the meaning up till now. Thank you David for this video - now I love this song even more
Thank you for uploaded this video! To let us know more about the song, how deep and meaningful it is. I think people need to know this. I really hope there will be more videos like this. Once again, thank you. Stay health and be happy 💜
Hobi really showed his intelligence and skill in writing songs! I love this song! Hobi could always deliver a meaningful song but in a fun way! Positive and he is deep too!
I love it 10x more now. I will forever be amazed on how they convey such thoughts and feelings in a song. Sincere, simple, and beautiful. I want them to perform this song on Year-end performances too. This will surely be talked about by many.
Thank you so much 💜 I always look forward to dkdktv's bts song explanation bc it is a MUST when it comes to bts. I'm already amazed just by reading the lyric translation, but explanation videos like these just blows my mind even more. They're, indeed, the best. It's also so interesting how bts always adds a sprinkle of korea in every aspect of their artistry, even in writing.
That I you for doing this explain and for adding some more context to this song. Ever since I heard it, I fell in love with Dis-ease. It’s a great song and has so much meaning for me.
I have 4 top songs on the BE album. 1) Dis-ease; 2) Telepathy; 3) Fly to My Room; 4) Blue & Grey. I love all of the songs, but for me, these four songs - I could listen to them over and over and not get sick of them.
This is the best explanation I ever saw. Thanks to one army who recommend me this video. As a non korean person it's hard to understand bts lyrics as their lyrics consist of word plays, idiom and may things. But when the lyrics broke it become more beautiful than before. You explain wonderfully. BTS are not only a good artist but also spectacular lyricist. So what I got it (I assume) basically songs start with them referring to their insecurities, in the end they conclude with nothing last long like new day new morning.
I truly relate to the verses that J-hope sang at the beginning of Dis-ease. I also suffer from the habit of measuring my productivity in order to feel happy about myself. Being productive and focusing on beneficial work is definitely good, but allowing most of your self-esteem and happiness to rely on it is not. I also love this song because I believe that diseases of the heart exist. Not mental or physical health diseases, but plainly illnesses of the heart. For example, not feeling satisfied with daily life as it is and feeling an emptiness, hollowness, or anxiousness inside that is otherwise filled in by work, is a disease of the heart. In my opinion, it can only be cured by spiritual faith. Atlas, thank you for this amazing review as always!
“i’m ill” could also mean “i’m 일” like the number 1 in sino-korean so “i’m #1” as BTS is so successful and technically number 1 in so many areas this also makes sense, RM tends to use really thought out wordplays so i wouldn’t be surprised if he also intended this.
The Explanation changed my entire look towards the song, instead of just enjoying the music n vocals n raps I felt what the lyrics meantt n what exactly the message was! Thank You:-)
Thank you David. But Koreans are not the only ones with a mental illness stigma. The United Stated has that same stigma that if you seek help you are considered weak, crazy and someone not to socialize with. So the Asian culture is not alone in this. Here there r a lot of people who are tryingnto make everyone aware that its ok, dont be ashamed, please seek help. Thanks. I love this song. The boys did great with it.
Same in Germany, physical illness is sth people understand, but if your soul suffers, noone really respects your disease, sometimes neither the own family.
As a non-Korean speaker, I appreciate David's effort to explain all the word plays and how hopeful this song is despite the global crisis. As expected, BTS always will always shed light to a very dark topic. No other group can elaborate mental illness/health this way. Thank you Bangtan, you never ever disappoint. Amazing as always! 💜
bbygang also said in his video essay that when RM says "I'm ill" he could also be saying that he (RM) is such a workaholic to the point thay he becomes work itself, so it could be interpreted as "I'm 일". It's a really interesting wordplay.
And I’m ill in 90/00’s hip hop culture is a synonym for being dope, sick or cool. Ergo Nas’ “illlamatic” album - and we ALL know how much RM likes (Big) Nas 😊
'일' also means '1' in korean
@@bark3182 that could be referring to their recent success after they got number 1 on billboard 100 or maybe in general they are currently the number 1 boyband in the world
Ik namjoon's word plays have always been that way and they're very deep and interesting and most of the times they're not exactly what they seem. Something only his sexc brain can come up with lol.

When J-Hope gave his explanation about his song and said that it also meant "bottle", I was like "this makes perfect sense, 'cause bottles are fragile, too. If you drop them, they break. If you drain them, they'll be left empty and hollow. If you fill them up too much, they won't be able to contain any air, thus drowning them." But bottles can, in the same context, be the enemy. Don't drink too much "coffee" and make it your "rest." (note: I'm not making any assumptions or pointing fingers, I'm merely amazed of the many ways one can interpret this song)
Anyways, I apologize for this long comment.
Again, thank you and stay safe.
Didn't think I could love this song any more and then you come out with this explanation.
Love the sound of the song and the lyrics are so meaningful and relatable.
Thank you David!! I'm so glad I found this video! I was eagerly waiting for the #Dkdktv explanation to this song since "BE" came out! 💜 Love the song, lyrics, the old school hiphop and the changes inside a single song!! Masterpiece 👏🤩Thank you J-hope and BTS for you comforting hug in form of the "BE" album!
P.s. thank you David for emphasising the other traks on the album. The billboard hot 100 achievements are amazing, and we are so proud, but in my opinion the other traks are amazing too and definitely need more attention! Thank you for that! Have a happy, healthy new year everyone 💜
here in the uk how much talk about mental health in school everywhere is unbelievable. There is mental health awareness week , suicide prevention week and stuff on the tv and there is just so much talk. That I know everything inside out
I loved. . .LOVED what you said at the end of the video, " 'Disease' is the kind of song that might help reduce anxiety and bring back courage and hope in our society."
Great explanation as always by David. This is the reason why I started watching his channel with Danny (DKDKTV). Glad to see him getting a wider audience. Looking forward to more vids like this.
This was my favorite song after listening to Life Goes On is just masterpiece, I love the beat and the way their voices all work so well together. 💜
Korean, just like all languages, it has its own unique saying and expressions.
Thank you very much David Kim for taking the time in your videos to explain.
Even before knowing ANYTHING about the meaning of the song, this was my favourite, and it's just becoming even more and more 🥰
God
I can’t even tell u how much I love those videos💜🙏🏼
dis-ease 듣고 제이홉의 실력에 다시한 번 놀랐죠 디오니소스도 그렇고 제이홉이 메인으로 작사작곡한 방탄 곡들은 다 국내외 평론가들에게 최고의 평가를 받았어요 제이홉 너무 자랑스러워요
I am very fast when it comes BTS.
Same
David has done a darn good job at explaining with great insights!! Thanks dkdktv!!
Thanks David for this video, it was great as always! I love this type of videos as I’m able to understand better the lyrics and Korean culture
I knew I'd love this song the moment I heard J-hope wrote it!! 💜
OH MY GOOOD this is so GOOOD lmfao. I have a hard time understanding the song with the usual translations found online, but this video makes everything so clear, and it makes me love the song even more (this was already my favorite song in the album and it just got better). Plus, learning Korean myself, learning about the idioms and the wordplays make me realise how smart BTS is!! This is so great, thank you!
I've read several translations of this song but couldn't really grasp the meaning up till now. Thank you David for this video - now I love this song even more
Thank you so much for explaining this. 💜 i hope they gonna make MV for this song
Thank you David, I never would of been able to figure out certain words that you did! I always love these videos!
My favorite song on BE along with Telepathy, LGO, Dynamite, Fly To My Room, and Blue & Grey
Thank you for uploaded this video! To let us know more about the song, how deep and meaningful it is. I think people need to know this. I really hope there will be more videos like this. Once again, thank you. Stay health and be happy 💜
Hobi really showed his intelligence and skill in writing songs! I love this song! Hobi could always deliver a meaningful song but in a fun way! Positive and he is deep too!
disease is such a perfect song it deserves so many grammys
DIS-EASE is honestly my favorite track on the album.
I love it 10x more now. I will forever be amazed on how they convey such thoughts and feelings in a song. Sincere, simple, and beautiful.
I want them to perform this song on Year-end performances too. This will surely be talked about by many.
Thank you so much 💜 I always look forward to dkdktv's bts song explanation bc it is a MUST when it comes to bts. I'm already amazed just by reading the lyric translation, but explanation videos like these just blows my mind even more. They're, indeed, the best. It's also so interesting how bts always adds a sprinkle of korea in every aspect of their artistry, even in writing.
Thank you for this! Interesting analysis as always david!
Wow, j-hope has put so much raw emotion into Dis-ease
That I you for doing this explain and for adding some more context to this song. Ever since I heard it, I fell in love with Dis-ease. It’s a great song and has so much meaning for me.
I love how work and Ill sounds the same.... kind of ironic
I love BTS more each day! Thank you, David 💜
I have 4 top songs on the BE album. 1) Dis-ease; 2) Telepathy; 3) Fly to My Room; 4) Blue & Grey. I love all of the songs, but for me, these four songs - I could listen to them over and over and not get sick of them.
Dis-ease is my favorite song on BE, Thanks for explaining the context and wordplay BTS were trying to convey.
i will go ruminate on this so more 💜💜💜
This is the best explanation I ever saw. Thanks to one army who recommend me this video. As a non korean person it's hard to understand bts lyrics as their lyrics consist of word plays, idiom and may things. But when the lyrics broke it become more beautiful than before. You explain wonderfully. BTS are not only a good artist but also spectacular lyricist. So what I got it (I assume) basically songs start with them referring to their insecurities, in the end they conclude with nothing last long like new day new morning.
Thank you David, your video really helped to appreciatie this song even more.
I love this song even more and it was already my favorite. Thank you. Happy holidays. Stay healthy everyone!
I truly relate to the verses that J-hope sang at the beginning of Dis-ease. I also suffer from the habit of measuring my productivity in order to feel happy about myself. Being productive and focusing on beneficial work is definitely good, but allowing most of your self-esteem and happiness to rely on it is not.
I also love this song because I believe that diseases of the heart exist. Not mental or physical health diseases, but plainly illnesses of the heart. For example, not feeling satisfied with daily life as it is and feeling an emptiness, hollowness, or anxiousness inside that is otherwise filled in by work, is a disease of the heart. In my opinion, it can only be cured by spiritual faith.
Atlas, thank you for this amazing review as always!
“i’m ill” could also mean “i’m 일” like the number 1 in sino-korean so “i’m #1” as BTS is so successful and technically number 1 in so many areas this also makes sense, RM tends to use really thought out wordplays so i wouldn’t be surprised if he also intended this.
Good job breaking this down! Thanks again David for your insights!
I loved this explanation. Thank you, David!
가사 의미 하나하나 전부 상세하게 설명해주시네요 정말 감사해요! 🥰
Yay I love David’s BTS explanation videos
Thank You for explaining my favorite song off the album.
The Explanation changed my entire look towards the song, instead of just enjoying the music n vocals n raps I felt what the lyrics meantt n what exactly the message was!
Thank You:-)
Here for David and BTS💜
💜💜💜💜💜As always your explanations are on point 💜
Great job, David!! 💜 thank you for this!!
Thank you David. But Koreans are not the only ones with a mental illness stigma. The United Stated has that same stigma that if you seek help you are considered weak, crazy and someone not to socialize with. So the Asian culture is not alone in this. Here there r a lot of people who are tryingnto make everyone aware that its ok, dont be ashamed, please seek help. Thanks. I love this song. The boys did great with it.
Same in Germany, physical illness is sth people understand, but if your soul suffers, noone really respects your disease, sometimes neither the own family.
Same in every country!!!
dise-ase is a masterpiece
