One of my favorite quotes was when the boys were watching their debut stage and Hobi said “You can see the passion in our eyes” & Tae in all seriousness replies “It’s the eyeliner” 😂😂
This is BTS's debut song. They were babies trying to act all tough😭 They were a solid Hiphop group before their transition in 2015. They found their sound. They slowly grew up and became experienced enough to pull off any genre.
yes and imagine if people would not have welcomed their new style but they just seemed to get more and more fans. but there are armys who preferer the earlier BTS but still love their new stuff to. no other artist have the ability to just gange completely and still keep the fans and gain more. so i can´t wait for their comeback
@@lealarsen2017 yeah, actually there are some people that said that they lost their essence ._. I don’t see that, I’m seeing that their essence just evolve, like them.
This is their debut, Bang PD believed in them so much he threw what he had at their debut. His and his companies mindset has always been to go big or don't bother, so the writing, music production, choreography and video production are all top notch. They did two music videos at debut , this one and We are Bulletproof p2. With every comeback everything just kept getting better and better. No they weren't a big deal in Korea when they debuted but they kept at it until by end 2017/beginning 2018 their home country couldn't ignore them anymore.
@@BTSISMYHAPPYPLACE4VER You have to give them their due, I don't think I could have kept up the pace if my own home country didn't support me until I was too big to ignore. They are that once in a lifetime act. 💜💜💜They have my support for life.
I think maybe what they are not quite understanding is the kind of standard that was already set for kpop, the standards even from the get go are just expected to be on a different level. Like the excess, the flashiness, etc... to my understanding thats just apart of the genre in a general sense, especially when it comes to you know, outfits, performances, and music videos, etc... Like they may not have had the most resources, but they still needed to come out to impress. I hope I"m explaining this right. Kpop is just different from the very start. As a genre, or you might as well say more a cultural thing, there are different standards even at a base level. This is an important part to understand, because to some it may seem rather a lot for a band just debuting, but for a kpop band debuting it probably was more along the standard starting lines. I personally can't say all this for sure, but from what I have come to learn about what kpop was like even at that earlier time and also what it is like now, (so to speak), but yeah.... taking into consideration these things that I have learned or have observed, this is my best understanding, hope I"m not horribly wrong, or really far off. If so, sorry, my bad.
@@sinevins your quite right a debut is expected to be something. Kpop acts only get one shot so they have to make an impression. Unfortunately the who you know and are associated with also makes a big difference. Bigger companies had more resources or clout to help their groups count. I wasn't an army in 2013 but holy crap did I notice them and did they make an impression. They were everywhere and constantly performing so you got exposure to them, it might have only been their own created content but it was always worth a watch. I was hooked after seeing them at Music Bank Mexico as they were such genuine people and goofy BUT once they hit that stage they were incredible.
How nostalgic this mv, they have grown so much, I'm so proud of the boys! Looking back, they were 7 passionate boys who had a dream to pursue music, then in 2022, they are still the same individuals with the same passion back in 2013. They haven't changed AT ALL😭💜 Their energy, music and choreography are still unmatched!
Oh, yes I can't wait for you to react to that series. I have seen some reactors doing the main songs of each chapter before reactin the the episode itself. I'm sure some ARMYs could tell you the songs included in each episode so you can react to them before and don't get spoiled too much. Than would be amazing.
@@lauren0047 yeahh i agree it can be a little much for newcomers so i dont suggest it at a time like now its too early. If they were to do it now tho yea every other week sounds better than like every day or every week to me🙄👌🏾
BTS joked amongst themselves on their 100-day anniversary that Jimin hated lifting his shirt during the choreo - but that as time progressed during live performances he came to love it because of the wild response he got each time from the audiences 😂 RM wore sunglasses CONSTANTLY due to insecurities about his looks, and J-Hope wore a large facemask (you saw it dangling under his chin in the video) for the same reason. BTS members absolutely cringe when they look back at this era - but their songs and dance talent were already so solid that we ARMY cherish these 'fetus-BTS' days
@@felix.pjm7 Both are fake. RM's sunglasses and hairstyle were BigHit's concept for his image, they required that he always wear them. He even celebrated on a BTS' Log when he finally removed them. Same for J-Hope, he even said once about how he couldn't breathe right with it and Jin said "why Bang PD-Nim make us wear that?"
@@itzelwisteria1819Namjoon said on a BTS' Log (I think it was 130825, can't remember really well bc was a long time ago, but I know it was on a BTS' Log) and Jin said on MCOUNTDOWN reacting their debut stage
The production was always top notch bc they’ve always had an incredible in-house producing team and Bang PD was an incredibly renowned producer in kpop already.
This was their debut song and omg wat a debut it was. This song is inspired by HipHop as BTS was supposed to be a hiphop group before becoming an idol group and I love the atmosphere of the MV too as you can clearly tell how hungry and passionate they were and still are. Also I love when JK raps as some people forget he can actually rap and my fav bits in the MV is when Jimin shows his abs during the choreo for the chorus and also when Jimin runs across the other members ba k then after he manages the highnote which I love. If you can't tell Jimin is my ult bias I BTS
They were actually always an idol group from debut… they just called them a “hip hop idol group.” I always think it’s funny ppl look at the lift at the end and just say jimin did it… even though baby jungkook is the one who has to pick up his big brother and run with his full body weight sideways , drop jimin on one side of the stage and sprint to the other side of the stage to sing at the same time as jimin after all that lol jimin just kicks his feet to pretend to knock them over as he’s being carried …. He’s not doing anything difficult there lol jungkook is . I do love jimins little high note at the end of it though… it’s so cute how he fusses one hand in the air as he does it with his little sideways hat…. And this is nothing against jimin…. It’s just crazy that people miss the other half of the stunt who is doing most of the work lol
I love this song, but I have to giggle at the intro to this MV every time. Maybe it’s bc I’m 30-years-old and can only see them as total babies trying to look all tough and grown (I say this out of nothing but pure love and adoration for them), but I can’t help but to smile and laugh fondly. They’ve really come into themselves in the last decade. Jimin’s transformation is always the most jarring to me. In an interview, he even says how he was trying so hard to appear tough and macho before realizing it was okay to just be himself. They’ve all softened their edges and embraced their true selves over the years. I’m so proud of their growth and maturity individually and as a group. 💜
It makes me a bit teary to watch this. You should watch the Rise of Bangtan, a fan-made documentary series to get the early behind-the-scenes info. By their debut, the group has been together for at least a year, and for RM and Suga, close to three. I get emotional thinking about their road to success going through so many obstacles. I’m a relatively new Army and I always want to thank the veteran Armies for supporting the boys. This was fun! Thank you!
Please also watch the Bonus and Deleted scenes that go with each chapter. Some new reactors don't know about the Bonus scenes and miss some really funny and entertaining videos.
omgggg. Jungkook said okay mom im going to library but i think that’s a thing in korea where they tell their parents that but they go to somewhere else. I love this and it’s so iconic. Jimin later on said that he was trying to be a ‘strong’ man but now he doesn’t have to pretend. Love your reactions btw 💜💜💜 Also, debut is a very important thing for kpop idols so that’s why it’s not like a ‘bad’ production etc. To see that you can watch rise of bangtan which is a long series but you can watch it like once a month which is what most reactors do.
Yes. Jimin was putting on that image in order to meet the expectations at that point in time. He didn't like it, but really wanted to be retained in the group (he was last one to join the team). I have also learned that men from Busan (Jimin's hometown) are/were expected to be tough and manly. I believe Jimin does have a male strength to his personality that we don't see much because it is tempered with his soft heart and caring for others.
The best debut? Yes because? I love this song so much at some point I decided to finish my studies but after meeting them and seeing the lyrics of this song I am now a university student 💜
Honestly, the best way to see their changes and growth over the years is by watching this fanmade series called ‘The Rise of Bangtan’. It’s soooooo good and made with a professional team of fans. Ik you guys have schedules and requests need to be fitted in appropriately but I srsly think this is soooo worth starting. The series is immaculate and captured their debut days perfectly. Great video as always! It’s become a routine for me to come hangout with you guys after a long day :]]
I had been into kpop for 3 years when this came out, and they really caught my attention back then. It was a different sound and style, so I was intrigued. I started watching them, never imagining how they would become so entwined in my life. After almost 10 years I can't imagine them absent from my life.
For this choreography, at first all 7 members had to « lift their top » but after sometimes the staff (prod & dance) said « no I think just Jimin ». He said at the time it was a lot of pressure. You need to remember during the filming of the MV Jimin and V were just 17 and Jungkook 15
their music and image has always grown with them, when they were teenagers they had three albums centered around school, when they were young adults they had albums centered around youth and growing up and so on
Don't worry guys, I'm also laughing with you watching baby bangtan :) They've grown so much, and witnessing their growth as an individual and musicality was really a blessing. Your curiosity about their musical era/ phase will be answered if you watch their album in chronology. here's a resume: 2013-2014 School trilogy (No more dream, N.O, Boy in Luv) 2015-2016 HYYH (The most beautiful moment in life, this is the start of BU, BUT you don't need to dive deep into the BU if you feel overwhelmed, you could enjoy their music as usual because that's what brings us together :)) 2017 Wings era (Blood sweat tears) 2018-2019 Love Yourself era (Her-Tear-Answer) 2019-2020 Map of The Soul (Persona, 7 which title track was ON) 2021 BE (title track Life Goes On), Dynamite, Butter, PTD 2022 PROOF we are here :) One of their MV director (Lumpens) said that Bang PD paid so much attention to their mv and always tried to get the best shot possible (i forget where I watch this though). and maybe later, you could watch Rise of Bangtan series, because it shows many behind the scenes and was put togeher so well :) Love your reaction as always, have a great day.
I swear their old songs are gems! I still listen to them to this day. I would really love it if you could watch the behind the scene 😭 theyre so playful still, so innocent, but u can see how determined they were to make it. What I love abt BTS is, theyre always themselves, on stage off stage. They dont care abt looking cool and collected 24/7 theyre just unapologetically themselves and I think thats why ARMY easily can relate to them despite how big they are today. And I read/saw videos, that mentioned, BTS had fans already even bfo they debut cause they were active on social medias, posting logs and stuff.
How is this their first song!!!!! The synchronization, the strength of their voices, the confidence,the quality of it all, anyone could see they were stars from the start.
To answer your question, they were definitely still struggling at this point. K-Pop in general just has very high production standards haha. But yes it's fun to look back and see how they were going for this tough guy vibe, and how they've evolved so much since then. From the start though, the talent and dedication was always there! And you guys are right, it's all part of their story. They jump around different genres until now :) PS ded at the Jimin shirt comment and edit 😂 Editor spot on as always hahaha
Yes, This is where they started, Their iconic Debut, its surprising right. Like how they were rookies as a hiphop group who grew a lot to carry music in various genera whether it is EDM, R&B, Ballad, Latin Pop or more. They achieved a lot, I am proud of them.
For Christmas I recommend BTS CHRISTMAS Carol Medley on SBS 2019 Gayo Daejun performance!Hope you guys could watch this as a special video,thank you so much!
fetus bangtan was on a different wavelength but i’m still obsessed with it. their songs back then were soooo good too, if they released them today they would hit big (no pun intended)
Ahhhhh !!! FETUS TANNIES AHHHHHH ! I miss these babiesss Edit : Editor Zen OMG- I choked on air ????? That Jimin thirst trap was so outta pocket...I loved it
14:34 image, behind the scenes they were completely different and them sharing their real selves in vlogs etc is what made them blow up. Jimin talked very canditley about how the self he tried to portray earlier was very faka and uncomfortable for him and how he learned to love himself and accept himself over the years
Y’all will definitely love the Rise of Bangtan series. It’s so well done! It’s so emotional; Aneesa masterfully takes us through the ups and downs with the guys. And for a more concise intro that touches on the musical evolution through the Bangtan eras, check out The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS (2022 Update!).
The production is really good just because they were really good and the people who work with them are just as good considering that their first album was recorded in a garage and they had the bare minimum promotion since bighit didn't have the power or money to promote them. That was a tough time for BTS but no one could stop this boys and their dreams and if today they are the biggest is because they deserve and worked so hard for that.
Baby Bangtan is so fun and wild to watch. They have grown so much in so many aspects in their lives and career yet they have always been consistent in following their motto of Music and Artist for Healing from beginning to now. They are the one and only, the best! What's more amazing is their best is yet to come! No pressure BTS, we will always love you nevertheless! 😄💜
Seeing you guys react to newer content and then seeing you react to their first music video just reminds us of how much you have to catch up on, lol. You have A LOT ahead of you. It's like cramming for the best test ever. 😁 Every time I hear "No More Dream" I get transported back to 2013. A year of their debut and a year I wish I would've known BTS existed. Nonetheless, I'm happy I found them when I did. One of the best things is being able to travel back and forth through their content and see the growth in real time. Aside from the obvious physical growth (wow), they're still the same. They're still 7 hungry young men with so much to show. The same ambition to make music and be loved. The same men with so much passion. The same men with so much goofball energy, lol. Seeing how much they have matured it's always funny when they say things like, "I can't believe we had fans". I love seeing the growth of each of their identities. BTS cringes when they see their younger selves, especially Jimin. But I'm so glad they are who they are. I'm beyond happy with whom they have become as individuals. I'm riding with these men...FOREVER! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
They were so young and their already singing for youth about dreams and society. I think what made me stan them hard was when i first saw their past MVs starting Just One Day and Danger MV and up to this debut song. I love their overflowing passion.
Creating a group takes a lot of investments even before the debut. Years of different training, accommodations, concept development etc. Big Hit even did it the decent way unlike some contracts that have the artists pay back all the invested money before they themselves get any money at all; slave contracts that can leave them in debt forever if they don't succeed. Big Hit had an extremely limited budget and they basically bet the company's future on these guys' succes. I can't even imagine the weight they must've felt at such a young age. (And yes, definitely a big thank you to "Editor"! 😄)
Watching this mv reminds me everytime...underdogs to legends, their journey is epic and inspiring 💜...growing with them and being able to share an era with them was one of the luckiest thing that happened in my life💜...Will love and support my 7 brothers forever💜💜💜
One of my favorite things about Run BTS is that it's calling on this early sound and bringing it into their present. They're not rejecting who they were then, it's all part of the same story. All three of the maknae line were so young and changed so much. Jimin found so much power when he stopped portraying this kind of masculinity & embraced a more natural way of being. V kept the intensity but added so much polish and grew into his face. And Jungkook here is a kid -an actual kid - doing an incredible job of performing a role that isn't who he is. He grew into a man with an edge, but that's not all of him. He dances like he wants to fight the world and does karaoke live with army where he says "last song" about the last five songs and cries onstage. They changed so much. I mean, all seven of them grew up and changed and figured out how to be in the world, and their company grew with them. Their musical and stylistic evolution is really fascinating. 😁 The youngest ones just feel so unformed at debut! Oh, and they laugh at themselves, now, so you're right that you're laughing with them. RM groans at the hairstyle, they all roll their eyes with what looks to me like affectionate humor towards their younger selves. It's all very healthy and wholesome 🤣
This is what I love about watching these videos with you guys. It's like walking down memory lane and here I am just suddenly spitting fire together with them bc of how much I've memorized this back in high school. 😆
Jimin has talk about how hard was for him at those times cause he really wanted to appear like a "strong man", his toxic masculinity was hard to handle for him but now he can just be himself, and i think that's why he's the one who has changed the most, I'm happy for him 💜
i've seen so many artist despise their "debut" songs for whatever reason but the way they still vibe to it, perform it, and reference it makes my heart warm, they're the same kids full of dreams as back then
Thank you so much for always taking the time to watch BTS content and learning about all the members, not just what they do on stage but also their individual personalities. I know it's overwhelming the amount of content they have and fellow ARMYs telling you what to watch and everything, but we really appreciate your genuine appreciation for our boys 💜 You guys are my new favorite reaction channel 🫶
Baby Bangtan! During this time in their careers, they were struggling with the identity of having to be "manly" because of the hip-hop genre, especially Jimin. There is a very emotional clip of Jimin (either from a vlive or a documentary) where he tearily speaks to his younger self, saying that in those days, he put himself under a lot of pressure to be manly and that now he can just be himself. He also mentions in one of the Festa's that exposing his abs during that choreo. was not something he was particularly comfortable with; I think because he wasn't comfortable yet with himself. 💙💜💜💜💜💜💜🐳🌌♾
love when you start to click and make connections. run bts was such a great throwback to their origins. look forward to you seeing more of the rap-based music which has a lot of dimension
You guys should watch : The most beautiful life goes on-a story of BTS from Rice Squad UA-cam channel. They explained their musical journey pretty well. It may answer a lot of the questions you had in this video! Loving your channel so far❤
i love how they have evolved and finally found their own style. It's so cute seeing them act like a wannabe macho here like babies tryna act tough but in a cute way showing how hungry and passionate they were and i'm glad that they have transformed into their true selves but i still cherish this old bts, i loved these songs and i hope they try them in the future again~
Yey, finally you guys are going back to their beginnings as artists. Aside from the music videos, maybe you can start watching The Rise of Bangtan series. More in depth summary of their journey. Give insight from when they started, how they were formed and their growth to where they are now. Love your videos as always. 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Aw, thanks for the reminder of their debut. The mostly teenagers did very well with what they had. Their talent really shines through and their massive hard work only continued after this. You guys are great!
Once again thanks for the reaction you guys, BTS beginning days are so precious to us we see how great they were from the beginning and also see the amount of growth they've have had as artist and people. One thing tho I wish you guys could pay more attention to the lyrics, I know you guys are musicians so you gravitate towards paying attention to the sound and everything but BTS lyrics are just amazing that I think shouldn't be missed. Just my opinion dont jump me.
Guess now's the right time to explore The Rise of Bangtan and see everything behind the scene from pre-debut and follow their growth while going through each era.. Again, thank you for all these fun reactions!!!
Su primera canción fue una crítica social, sobretodo en los países como Sur Corea donde solo eres exitoso si estudias en la universidad y tienes mucho dinero. Esta es una de las canciones de BTS que me animan a continuar y siempre lo digo, pero ellos son gran parte de la razón por la que sigo aquí, además de mi familia. 💜
Once you grow with them, their music, their message, etc.. you start to have a true appreciation for every song, every era, every chapter.. like, I was definitely take aback by their earlier music, Dope was my intro into Bts and that was a pretty tame song, so it was definitely easier to digest, but now, seven years later.. and I revisit these older songs all the time. They really transport you to the beginning, the literal kids with just a pen and a dream.. lol very nostalgic ! They were really out here making bops like WABP and Danger at their tiny age.. I could never ! The messages too.. no one was doing it like them, they risked it all and it’s payed off 🫶🏽
Even as debuttans they were something else. Their live performaces of their first songs were powerful voices and perfect dance. Other debuttans sounded like small whispering voices without strong dance. I hope you'll watch the *rise of bangtan series chapters* to fully understand where there are coming from and how many struggles they had to face. For me it was destiny that this 7 boys met.
To me it isnt so much different stages it is more like a natural growth and exploration with their music. They cover so many genres and they arnt afraid to mix it up to whatever suits the song. When they first started they were meant to be a "hip hop group" in style so their look was harder but the music was always lit. In SK the quality of all music videos are always high lvl regardless of wether its a debut group or a well establish "big group". Bts at the time were still a very small fish in a very big pond. Two years later the company was still struggling so much that they used their managers cars in the MV for Run. Now they are the biggest fish in the global ocean and they got there not just because of their work ethic but because they are genuine, lovable, funny and they all have a passion for music.
I'm very happy you were able to find a video with lyrics. Most of their older songs didn't have English captions, so we had to look up color coded lyrics. Again love your editing, feeling blessed with having fellow ARMY adding the extra edit, please Keep going💜👍👍
AWWW seeing them this tiny makes all these hidden emotions resurfaceee. #FetusBabies 🥹 P.S, I think you guys will like One Day by them especially Summer and Abigail 😙 Love you guysss !
Even Suga said before that he is wondering why they have fans back then 😭😂 it's just soooo cute to see their growth! their looks maybe funky, but talent and their potential is undeniable! 💜 💜 💜
React to J Hopes More and Arson, you're going to be so confused on how different his recent Solo stuff is from what you know about him. Hobi made history in headlining as the first Korean at a big American Musical Festival, he soled 105K Tickets giving Lollapalooza their biggest Crowed in History, he soled Merch worth of 1 Million Dollar, staff that worked there for 30 Years with Music Legends never experienced something like this. the Major of Chicago and the City thanked him for Performing because he bought so much life and Tourism into the City. Hobis Debut Album, Jack in the Box, is the most critical acclaimed Album by a Korean Soloist in History. Recommend Watching his History Making Lollapalooza Stage too. His Song Equal Sign was submitted to a Grammy Award Sub Category about Social Change.
My niece introduced me to BTS over 4 years ago. Everytime we watch "No More Dream," she always says they are 7 good boys trying to act like bad boys. She says they are saying, "We bad!" and Armys are saying "they ain't bad, they ain't bad at all!" They are good boys! LOL But they do a great job of convincing those that don't know them that they are whatever concept they are portraying. ' So yes, they are chameleons when it comes to performing! But this shows how talented they are to be able to tackle so many genres successfully. Also, I believe Bang Si Hyuck, BigHits CEO, put BTS together to be a hip hop group originally, but like he said in one of the videos that he did not put strict rules on them and allowed them to develop and grow as artists. He gave them room to grow and evolve as they grew and evolved as individuals. He gave them the room and freedom to be themselves and not try to package them into a brand that only was one lane. I think this is part of why they have been so successful because they weren't pigeon -holed into a package that was inflexible. I think that's why so many western bands fail after a few years. They start out as teenagers and eventually become adults, but they don't know how to successfully change lanes.
All those adlibs and highnotes are JIMINS. JIMIN is the only who used to do those runs, adlibs & Highnotes in Bts songs early on. Now u saw their Debut song u get it what I been saying for so long. And the JIMINS ABS part is the reason Bts been put on the map and noticed by people after their Debut stage ( which is them got to perform live on a music show) bc their debut song was a Flop for a debut song from an unknown group from an unknown agency. But JIMIN gone Viral for making the Killing part aka standing out part in the song with his abs choreo that on SNS ppl were searching for the performance for the “Guy with Abs & Performance were the showing abs” the autocomplete were completing the search engine with that term bc of JIMIN ❤️🔥 So fairly Can say JIMIN Put Bts on the Map as 100s of K-pop groups debuts every year and hardly 10 grps get noticed in that 3/4 grps lasts for few years and Bts was totally Nobodies in every way ❤ so Yeah JIMIN always been that All Rounder Xfactor who Made Bts stand Out in every way among other K-pop groups Bts Nationally & Internationally & KILLING PART MAKER since their Debut 🔥🥰 So soo Proud of JIMIN 😍😘 Can’t Wait JIMINS SOLO DEBUT PJM1 IS COMING ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
i LOVE no more dream and i especially love the message they’re sending: “i know everyone around you wants you to have a stable job and to have ‘normal’ dreams (big car, big house, big rings) but don’t be afraid to take the risks necessary to follow your REAL dreams (like becoming an artist)” it’s a very bts way of debuting, especially when you know that this was not a topic spoken about, even less in the kpop industry. bts really debuted with full honesty and really represented what the youth was going through.
This is my fave song of them. 💜 It may not be their best but this is the song that accompany in my hardest time in school. Playing No More Dream while doing a bunch of research papers and thesis at midnight till dawn is a fond memory I always look back. Its this song that keep me wake up when my coffee cant anymore 😂😂 and mind you I wasnt really a fan of them back then haha. My cousin is a kpop fan and she always make me listen to kpop songs every time there is a new k-idol that debut. Though I like listening to the songs, among all of them, Bangtan's song/MV/song lyrics is the only one that made me interests in them. I watch their vlogs and bangtan bombs made me fall for them. I become a fan since then and up until now. Never regrets I did. 💜💜💜
Jungkook was 15 when they debuted with No More Dream (he'd just graduated middle school then), JIn was 20 even though the company was about to go under, they tried the best they can to release something that can put them on the map, BigHit struggled financially the first couple of years after debut, in their earlier mvs, their staff and managers participated as extras in the mvs. when you watch the mv of their song Run, all the cars and the vehicles were of their managers'.
I love this so much to look back on and see how their style has evolved musically over the years. It's a bop, it's just fun to see the changes. This is definitely heavily managed style wise. They were set to debut as hip hop and had to play the part but over the years they found their own sound. This Jimin always makes me feel nostalgic and makes me think about how he was really doing the most to portray what he thought the job needed. He's mentioned it elsewhere that this was him basically falling victim to toxic masculinity (paraphrasing like crazy because he's far more eloquent than me), and how much better he felt when he allowed himself to just be himself. Sometimes when I watch older kpop stuff I get whiplash from the styling (not as much here), and dear god the hair. It was fine then because the whole industry was doing it, but wow. I'm so glad smartphones didn't exist when I was in my teens. I was a mess, but the evidence is hard copy only. 😂
Oh man every time I see this MV it's An Experience lol. They were just babies here (comparatively speaking). Bless their little hearts, they were trying out their bad boy visuals concepts when they couldn't have been any further from that in real life. It gives me the same feelings I had as a kid when my parents would show me pics of them as teens in their bell-bottomed jeans, wild 70s prints and afros.
SUGA's "I wanna big house, big cars and big rings" is so iconic. He reused it so many times and each time with different meaning behind it
right! In shadow too😢
in ,,home'' ,,what do you think'' ,,shadow'' (i think)
Cypher pt4
And I love it because they all mean different things even though it is the same line
I love when he did it in "Home"
One of my favorite quotes was when the boys were watching their debut stage and Hobi said “You can see the passion in our eyes” & Tae in all seriousness replies “It’s the eyeliner” 😂😂
That's one of the funniest things ever!🤣
🥰🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣💀
Iconic 🤭🤣🤣
Tae is so quick with those deadpan responses 😂
This is BTS's debut song. They were babies trying to act all tough😭 They were a solid Hiphop group before their transition in 2015. They found their sound. They slowly grew up and became experienced enough to pull off any genre.
yes and imagine if people would not have welcomed their new style but they just seemed to get more and more fans. but there are armys who preferer the earlier BTS but still love their new stuff to. no other artist have the ability to just gange completely and still keep the fans and gain more. so i can´t wait for their comeback
G DRAGON THE KING
@@lealarsen2017 yeah, actually there are some people that said that they lost their essence ._. I don’t see that, I’m seeing that their essence just evolve, like them.
Can't wait for them to react to rise of bangtan series
That’s true. But hip-hop is the bane of BTS’ existence. They know their hip hop history AHL😭😭😭
This is their debut, Bang PD believed in them so much he threw what he had at their debut. His and his companies mindset has always been to go big or don't bother, so the writing, music production, choreography and video production are all top notch. They did two music videos at debut , this one and We are Bulletproof p2. With every comeback everything just kept getting better and better. No they weren't a big deal in Korea when they debuted but they kept at it until by end 2017/beginning 2018 their home country couldn't ignore them anymore.
@@BTSISMYHAPPYPLACE4VER You have to give them their due, I don't think I could have kept up the pace if my own home country didn't support me until I was too big to ignore. They are that once in a lifetime act. 💜💜💜They have my support for life.
At the beginning they had more international fans than korean, just the start of their world domination 💪
I think maybe what they are not quite understanding is the kind of standard that was already set for kpop, the standards even from the get go are just expected to be on a different level. Like the excess, the flashiness, etc... to my understanding thats just apart of the genre in a general sense, especially when it comes to you know, outfits, performances, and music videos, etc... Like they may not have had the most resources, but they still needed to come out to impress. I hope I"m explaining this right. Kpop is just different from the very start. As a genre, or you might as well say more a cultural thing, there are different standards even at a base level. This is an important part to understand, because to some it may seem rather a lot for a band just debuting, but for a kpop band debuting it probably was more along the standard starting lines. I personally can't say all this for sure, but from what I have come to learn about what kpop was like even at that earlier time and also what it is like now, (so to speak),
but yeah....
taking into consideration these things that I have learned or have observed, this is my best understanding, hope I"m not horribly wrong, or really far off. If so, sorry, my bad.
@@sinevins your quite right a debut is expected to be something. Kpop acts only get one shot so they have to make an impression. Unfortunately the who you know and are associated with also makes a big difference. Bigger companies had more resources or clout to help their groups count. I wasn't an army in 2013 but holy crap did I notice them and did they make an impression. They were everywhere and constantly performing so you got exposure to them, it might have only been their own created content but it was always worth a watch. I was hooked after seeing them at Music Bank Mexico as they were such genuine people and goofy BUT once they hit that stage they were incredible.
yep, exactly.
Finally your reaction on our Fetus Bangtan Boys. Lets be honest we all have a different place in our hearts for our young bangtan boys. Thankyou guys
“Fetus bangtan boys” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@abigailccw4366 😆 Young BTS = Fetus Bangtan Boys
So true

@@himaririku9254 lmao who asked?
How nostalgic this mv, they have grown so much, I'm so proud of the boys! Looking back, they were 7 passionate boys who had a dream to pursue music, then in 2022, they are still the same individuals with the same passion back in 2013. They haven't changed AT ALL😭💜 Their energy, music and choreography are still unmatched!
It's eyeliner 🤭

There is a series called The Rise of Bangtan. It follows their journey from debut to about 2019. It's really worth watching to learn about BTS. 💜💜💜💜
YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yess a hundred times yes!!
Maybe do like an episode a week and other reactions in between, so it's not overwhelming
Oh, yes I can't wait for you to react to that series. I have seen some reactors doing the main songs of each chapter before reactin the the episode itself. I'm sure some ARMYs could tell you the songs included in each episode so you can react to them before and don't get spoiled too much. Than would be amazing.
@@lauren0047 yeahh i agree it can be a little much for newcomers so i dont suggest it at a time like now its too early. If they were to do it now tho yea every other week sounds better than like every day or every week to me🙄👌🏾
BTS joked amongst themselves on their 100-day anniversary that Jimin hated lifting his shirt during the choreo - but that as time progressed during live performances he came to love it because of the wild response he got each time from the audiences 😂 RM wore sunglasses CONSTANTLY due to insecurities about his looks, and J-Hope wore a large facemask (you saw it dangling under his chin in the video) for the same reason. BTS members absolutely cringe when they look back at this era - but their songs and dance talent were already so solid that we ARMY cherish these 'fetus-BTS' days
That j-hope info is actually fake, that was just a rumor made by army, but idk about RM though.
@@felix.pjm7 Both are fake. RM's sunglasses and hairstyle were BigHit's concept for his image, they required that he always wear them. He even celebrated on a BTS' Log when he finally removed them. Same for J-Hope, he even said once about how he couldn't breathe right with it and Jin said "why Bang PD-Nim make us wear that?"
it's just part of the aesthetic/ concept
Did RM and J-Hope said? Where? I'm asking genuinely not trying to discredit lol
@@itzelwisteria1819Namjoon said on a BTS' Log (I think it was 130825, can't remember really well bc was a long time ago, but I know it was on a BTS' Log) and Jin said on MCOUNTDOWN reacting their debut stage
The production was always top notch bc they’ve always had an incredible in-house producing team and Bang PD was an incredibly renowned producer in kpop already.
And they had investors supporting the company.
This was their debut song and omg wat a debut it was.
This song is inspired by HipHop as BTS was supposed to be a hiphop group before becoming an idol group and I love the atmosphere of the MV too as you can clearly tell how hungry and passionate they were and still are.
Also I love when JK raps as some people forget he can actually rap and my fav bits in the MV is when Jimin shows his abs during the choreo for the chorus and also when Jimin runs across the other members ba k then after he manages the highnote which I love.
If you can't tell Jimin is my ult bias I BTS
They were actually always an idol group from debut… they just called them a “hip hop idol group.” I always think it’s funny ppl look at the lift at the end and just say jimin did it… even though baby jungkook is the one who has to pick up his big brother and run with his full body weight sideways , drop jimin on one side of the stage and sprint to the other side of the stage to sing at the same time as jimin after all that lol jimin just kicks his feet to pretend to knock them over as he’s being carried …. He’s not doing anything difficult there lol jungkook is . I do love jimins little high note at the end of it though… it’s so cute how he fusses one hand in the air as he does it with his little sideways hat…. And this is nothing against jimin…. It’s just crazy that people miss the other half of the stunt who is doing most of the work lol
I love this song, but I have to giggle at the intro to this MV every time. Maybe it’s bc I’m 30-years-old and can only see them as total babies trying to look all tough and grown (I say this out of nothing but pure love and adoration for them), but I can’t help but to smile and laugh fondly. They’ve really come into themselves in the last decade.
Jimin’s transformation is always the most jarring to me. In an interview, he even says how he was trying so hard to appear tough and macho before realizing it was okay to just be himself. They’ve all softened their edges and embraced their true selves over the years. I’m so proud of their growth and maturity individually and as a group. 💜
Oh, your reaction is mine. That involuntary giggle always slips out.
Jimin is the one who makes me the most proud idk why, I am just so proud that he finally embraced his true self💜💜
yes, and i am so glad that they found their true selves and their growth is insane especially jimin tryna act all macho
It makes me a bit teary to watch this. You should watch the Rise of Bangtan, a fan-made documentary series to get the early behind-the-scenes info. By their debut, the group has been together for at least a year, and for RM and Suga, close to three. I get emotional thinking about their road to success going through so many obstacles. I’m a relatively new Army and I always want to thank the veteran Armies for supporting the boys. This was fun! Thank you!
Please also watch the Bonus and Deleted scenes that go with each chapter. Some new reactors don't know about the Bonus scenes and miss some really funny and entertaining videos.
omgggg. Jungkook said okay mom im going to library but i think that’s a thing in korea where they tell their parents that but they go to somewhere else. I love this and it’s so iconic. Jimin later on said that he was trying to be a ‘strong’ man but now he doesn’t have to pretend. Love your reactions btw 💜💜💜
Also, debut is a very important thing for kpop idols so that’s why it’s not like a ‘bad’ production etc. To see that you can watch rise of bangtan which is a long series but you can watch it like once a month which is what most reactors do.
He says pc bang.
Yes. Jimin was putting on that image in order to meet the expectations at that point in time. He didn't like it, but really wanted to be retained in the group (he was last one to join the team). I have also learned that men from Busan (Jimin's hometown) are/were expected to be tough and manly. I believe Jimin does have a male strength to his personality that we don't see much because it is tempered with his soft heart and caring for others.
The best debut?
Yes because?
I love this song so much at some point I decided to finish my studies but after meeting them and seeing the lyrics of this song I am now a university student 💜
Honestly, the best way to see their changes and growth over the years is by watching this fanmade series called ‘The Rise of Bangtan’. It’s soooooo good and made with a professional team of fans. Ik you guys have schedules and requests need to be fitted in appropriately but I srsly think this is soooo worth starting. The series is immaculate and captured their debut days perfectly.
Great video as always! It’s become a routine for me to come hangout with you guys after a long day :]]
"DNA" would be an awesome video for you to watch, this is the performance that made BTS EXPLODE !
Jimin is just the most adorable tough guy. Jk rap was awesome. Sooo good.
I had been into kpop for 3 years when this came out, and they really caught my attention back then. It was a different sound and style, so I was intrigued. I started watching them, never imagining how they would become so entwined in my life. After almost 10 years I can't imagine them absent from my life.
For this choreography, at first all 7 members had to « lift their top » but after sometimes the staff (prod & dance) said « no I think just Jimin ». He said at the time it was a lot of pressure.
You need to remember during the filming of the MV Jimin and V were just 17 and Jungkook 15
And the relief of the other six , that they wont have to build their abs for this ^^
I always feel bad when I remember that time and how much pressure Jimin faced☹
10:10 i died 😂😂 the "Jimin effect" Daniel was sweating
😂😂
their music and image has always grown with them, when they were teenagers they had three albums centered around school, when they were young adults they had albums centered around youth and growing up and so on
Don't worry guys, I'm also laughing with you watching baby bangtan :)
They've grown so much, and witnessing their growth as an individual and musicality was really a blessing.
Your curiosity about their musical era/ phase will be answered if you watch their album in chronology. here's a resume:
2013-2014 School trilogy (No more dream, N.O, Boy in Luv)
2015-2016 HYYH (The most beautiful moment in life, this is the start of BU, BUT you don't need to dive deep into the BU if you feel overwhelmed, you could enjoy their music as usual because that's what brings us together :))
2017 Wings era (Blood sweat tears)
2018-2019 Love Yourself era (Her-Tear-Answer)
2019-2020 Map of The Soul (Persona, 7 which title track was ON)
2021 BE (title track Life Goes On), Dynamite, Butter, PTD
2022 PROOF we are here :)
One of their MV director (Lumpens) said that Bang PD paid so much attention to their mv and always tried to get the best shot possible (i forget where I watch this though). and maybe later, you could watch Rise of Bangtan series, because it shows many behind the scenes and was put togeher so well :)
Love your reaction as always, have a great day.
I swear their old songs are gems! I still listen to them to this day. I would really love it if you could watch the behind the scene 😭 theyre so playful still, so innocent, but u can see how determined they were to make it. What I love abt BTS is, theyre always themselves, on stage off stage. They dont care abt looking cool and collected 24/7 theyre just unapologetically themselves and I think thats why ARMY easily can relate to them despite how big they are today. And I read/saw videos, that mentioned, BTS had fans already even bfo they debut cause they were active on social medias, posting logs and stuff.
I am absolutely rolling at the editing!!! especially the jimin part where Daniel exposes himself and the jimin effect HAHAHAHA
funniest part lol I died when I first saw it
Editor I LOVE U 🤣🤣🤣 That whole section about Jimin's abs killed me💀💀💀
ilyt haha
How is this their first song!!!!! The synchronization, the strength of their voices, the confidence,the quality of it all, anyone could see they were stars from the start.
To answer your question, they were definitely still struggling at this point. K-Pop in general just has very high production standards haha.
But yes it's fun to look back and see how they were going for this tough guy vibe, and how they've evolved so much since then. From the start though, the talent and dedication was always there! And you guys are right, it's all part of their story. They jump around different genres until now :)
PS ded at the Jimin shirt comment and edit 😂 Editor spot on as always hahaha
hehe thanks
Yes, This is where they started, Their iconic Debut, its surprising right. Like how they were rookies as a hiphop group who grew a lot to carry music in various genera whether it is EDM, R&B, Ballad, Latin Pop or more. They achieved a lot, I am proud of them.
For Christmas I recommend BTS CHRISTMAS Carol Medley on SBS 2019 Gayo Daejun performance!Hope you guys could watch this as a special video,thank you so much!
This.
Yess
Yes please😊
I now make it a yearly tradition to watch that performance every Christmas.
Also their Christmas songs and other covers!!
fetus bangtan was on a different wavelength but i’m still obsessed with it. their songs back then were soooo good too, if they released them today they would hit big (no pun intended)
Ahhhhh !!! FETUS TANNIES AHHHHHH ! I miss these babiesss
Edit : Editor Zen OMG- I choked on air ????? That Jimin thirst trap was so outta pocket...I loved it
Hahaha
14:34 image, behind the scenes they were completely different and them sharing their real selves in vlogs etc is what made them blow up. Jimin talked very canditley about how the self he tried to portray earlier was very faka and uncomfortable for him and how he learned to love himself and accept himself over the years
Y’all will definitely love the Rise of Bangtan series. It’s so well done! It’s so emotional; Aneesa masterfully takes us through the ups and downs with the guys.
And for a more concise intro that touches on the musical evolution through the Bangtan eras, check out The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS (2022 Update!).
This was the song in MMA 2019 during V's solo dance btw!
I remember when this song came out I couldn’t believe those vocals coming out from little V.
The production is really good just because they were really good and the people who work with them are just as good considering that their first album was recorded in a garage and they had the bare minimum promotion since bighit didn't have the power or money to promote them. That was a tough time for BTS but no one could stop this boys and their dreams and if today they are the biggest is because they deserve and worked so hard for that.
Baby Bangtan is so fun and wild to watch. They have grown so much in so many aspects in their lives and career yet they have always been consistent in following their motto of Music and Artist for Healing from beginning to now. They are the one and only, the best! What's more amazing is their best is yet to come! No pressure BTS, we will always love you nevertheless! 😄💜
Seeing you guys react to newer content and then seeing you react to their first music video just reminds us of how much you have to catch up on, lol. You have A LOT ahead of you. It's like cramming for the best test ever. 😁
Every time I hear "No More Dream" I get transported back to 2013. A year of their debut and a year I wish I would've known BTS existed. Nonetheless, I'm happy I found them when I did. One of the best things is being able to travel back and forth through their content and see the growth in real time.
Aside from the obvious physical growth (wow), they're still the same. They're still 7 hungry young men with so much to show. The same ambition to make music and be loved. The same men with so much passion. The same men with so much goofball energy, lol. Seeing how much they have matured it's always funny when they say things like, "I can't believe we had fans". I love seeing the growth of each of their identities. BTS cringes when they see their younger selves, especially Jimin. But I'm so glad they are who they are. I'm beyond happy with whom they have become as individuals.
I'm riding with these men...FOREVER! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
don't worry they laughed so much at this themselves it's okayy😹 jimin was cringing so hard at his past self
They were so young and their already singing for youth about dreams and society. I think what made me stan them hard was when i first saw their past MVs starting Just One Day and Danger MV and up to this debut song. I love their overflowing passion.
9:59 Editor Xen knows us well😂💜
Thanks💜
haha ofc I’m one of u 🤌🫂
@@zvncity Love u tho💜
Creating a group takes a lot of investments even before the debut. Years of different training, accommodations, concept development etc. Big Hit even did it the decent way unlike some contracts that have the artists pay back all the invested money before they themselves get any money at all; slave contracts that can leave them in debt forever if they don't succeed. Big Hit had an extremely limited budget and they basically bet the company's future on these guys' succes. I can't even imagine the weight they must've felt at such a young age.
(And yes, definitely a big thank you to "Editor"! 😄)
Fun fact about this song: it’s the first mv and they came on a school bus, in their last music video they left on a school bus
10:00 you'll never know how many times I watched this edit 🔥🥵
Thankyou -editor Xen
ofc 🫂haha
Watching this mv reminds me everytime...underdogs to legends, their journey is epic and inspiring 💜...growing with them and being able to share an era with them was one of the luckiest thing that happened in my life💜...Will love and support my 7 brothers forever💜💜💜
10:10 daniel exposing himself lmaooo🤣 but we feel you bro don’t worry 😉
One of my favorite things about Run BTS is that it's calling on this early sound and bringing it into their present. They're not rejecting who they were then, it's all part of the same story.
All three of the maknae line were so young and changed so much. Jimin found so much power when he stopped portraying this kind of masculinity & embraced a more natural way of being. V kept the intensity but added so much polish and grew into his face. And Jungkook here is a kid -an actual kid - doing an incredible job of performing a role that isn't who he is. He grew into a man with an edge, but that's not all of him. He dances like he wants to fight the world and does karaoke live with army where he says "last song" about the last five songs and cries onstage. They changed so much.
I mean, all seven of them grew up and changed and figured out how to be in the world, and their company grew with them. Their musical and stylistic evolution is really fascinating. 😁 The youngest ones just feel so unformed at debut!
Oh, and they laugh at themselves, now, so you're right that you're laughing with them. RM groans at the hairstyle, they all roll their eyes with what looks to me like affectionate humor towards their younger selves. It's all very healthy and wholesome 🤣
There’s no need to explain why your laughing, cause I’m laughing with y’all 😂
Summer's reaction to jimin's entrance came from the bus and especially when she saw his abs is so abvious her bias🤭🤭
Thanks guys 💜💜💜💜
Borahae
This is what I love about watching these videos with you guys. It's like walking down memory lane and here I am just suddenly spitting fire together with them bc of how much I've memorized this back in high school. 😆
Jimin has talk about how hard was for him at those times cause he really wanted to appear like a "strong man", his toxic masculinity was hard to handle for him but now he can just be himself, and i think that's why he's the one who has changed the most, I'm happy for him 💜
"Eyeliner era" lol 🤣✌️🤭 BTS were told to act mad but still looks so cute 🤭😍🥰
Baby Bangtans, I can't! The boys also reacted to their old MVs you know... they're so funny. 😂
i've seen so many artist despise their "debut" songs for whatever reason but the way they still vibe to it, perform it, and reference it makes my heart warm, they're the same kids full of dreams as back then
You will love it you will hear his raw voice absolutely beautiful
Jungkook creating magic in studio
You can start watching the rise of bangtan docu series..it explains everything from the beginning of theyre journey..
Thank you so much for always taking the time to watch BTS content and learning about all the members, not just what they do on stage but also their individual personalities. I know it's overwhelming the amount of content they have and fellow ARMYs telling you what to watch and everything, but we really appreciate your genuine appreciation for our boys 💜 You guys are my new favorite reaction channel 🫶
Zen😭😭 Idk how much time you took to add that extra jimin video, I would have left the editing and watched that video for life🔥🔥🥵
hahah u can find the full version on letsgonorth ‘s yt channel if u want. I just added a little tease to follow ccw’s words ☺️
Are they going to react to there older songs now...cool..these are literal masterpieces..🔥🔥🔥
.
Please... Again imma ssy this. I love the editor. ❤❤😂😂
Baby Bangtan! During this time in their careers, they were struggling with the identity of having to be "manly" because of the hip-hop genre, especially Jimin. There is a very emotional clip of Jimin (either from a vlive or a documentary) where he tearily speaks to his younger self, saying that in those days, he put himself under a lot of pressure to be manly and that now he can just be himself. He also mentions in one of the Festa's that exposing his abs during that choreo. was not something he was particularly comfortable with; I think because he wasn't comfortable yet with himself. 💙💜💜💜💜💜💜🐳🌌♾
love when you start to click and make connections. run bts was such a great throwback to their origins. look forward to you seeing more of the rap-based music which has a lot of dimension
You guys should watch : The most beautiful life goes on-a story of BTS from Rice Squad UA-cam channel. They explained their musical journey pretty well. It may answer a lot of the questions you had in this video! Loving your channel so far❤
i love how they have evolved and finally found their own style. It's so cute seeing them act like a wannabe macho here like babies tryna act tough but in a cute way showing how hungry and passionate they were and i'm glad that they have transformed into their true selves but i still cherish this old bts, i loved these songs and i hope they try them in the future again~
from 2013 "No more dream" to 2022 "Dreamers" .... BTS taught us a lot throughout their journey... Purple Heart'tu....
Thank you editor xen:)
The editor is awesome 😂 the memes and gifs kill me!
thank u 🥰
Yes they are so chill and goofy behind the scenes which you should totally watch😄
Yey, finally you guys are going back to their beginnings as artists. Aside from the music videos, maybe you can start watching The Rise of Bangtan series. More in depth summary of their journey. Give insight from when they started, how they were formed and their growth to where they are now. Love your videos as always. 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Aw, thanks for the reminder of their debut. The mostly teenagers did very well with what they had. Their talent really shines through and their massive hard work only continued after this. You guys are great!
my babies 😭 btw guys, it's week, since Seokjinnie left, i miss him so bad ☹️💜
He will come back , they will all definitely come back
Once again thanks for the reaction you guys, BTS beginning days are so precious to us we see how great they were from the beginning and also see the amount of growth they've have had as artist and people. One thing tho I wish you guys could pay more attention to the lyrics, I know you guys are musicians so you gravitate towards paying attention to the sound and everything but BTS lyrics are just amazing that I think shouldn't be missed. Just my opinion dont jump me.
Thanks Editor Xen !!!! Everyone needs a little Jimin in their life.... hahaa.....
ofc !!
Guess now's the right time to explore The Rise of Bangtan and see everything behind the scene from pre-debut and follow their growth while going through each era.. Again, thank you for all these fun reactions!!!
Su primera canción fue una crítica social, sobretodo en los países como Sur Corea donde solo eres exitoso si estudias en la universidad y tienes mucho dinero. Esta es una de las canciones de BTS que me animan a continuar y siempre lo digo, pero ellos son gran parte de la razón por la que sigo aquí, además de mi familia. 💜
Look how far they have come. Literally so proud of them💜
At 3:30 I literally have the same reaction as you, as I know what's coming😅 Also, at 10:10 I see you😃
Once you grow with them, their music, their message, etc.. you start to have a true appreciation for every song, every era, every chapter.. like, I was definitely take aback by their earlier music, Dope was my intro into Bts and that was a pretty tame song, so it was definitely easier to digest, but now, seven years later.. and I revisit these older songs all the time. They really transport you to the beginning, the literal kids with just a pen and a dream.. lol very nostalgic ! They were really out here making bops like WABP and Danger at their tiny age.. I could never ! The messages too.. no one was doing it like them, they risked it all and it’s payed off 🫶🏽
Loved the surprises on their faces.
Always a good reaction when there is a throwback. Borahae💜💜💜💜
You were laughing at how adorable they were and they still are so. Love your reaction vids!
Jungkook can sing and rap well at this young age😭😭
Even as debuttans they were something else. Their live performaces of their first songs were powerful voices and perfect dance. Other debuttans sounded like small whispering voices without strong dance. I hope you'll watch the *rise of bangtan series chapters* to fully understand where there are coming from and how many struggles they had to face. For me it was destiny that this 7 boys met.
To me it isnt so much different stages it is more like a natural growth and exploration with their music. They cover so many genres and they arnt afraid to mix it up to whatever suits the song. When they first started they were meant to be a "hip hop group" in style so their look was harder but the music was always lit. In SK the quality of all music videos are always high lvl regardless of wether its a debut group or a well establish "big group". Bts at the time were still a very small fish in a very big pond. Two years later the company was still struggling so much that they used their managers cars in the MV for Run. Now they are the biggest fish in the global ocean and they got there not just because of their work ethic but because they are genuine, lovable, funny and they all have a passion for music.
I'm very happy you were able to find a video with lyrics. Most of their older songs didn't have English captions, so we had to look up color coded lyrics. Again love your editing, feeling blessed with having fellow ARMY adding the extra edit, please Keep going💜👍👍
thank u😇
OOOOOOH :0 it IS their debut song! :D NMD really was ahead of its time :")
This really is the beginning. It's so nostalgic for me. So proud to see their journey through out years. Our precious fetus BTS...
AWWW seeing them this tiny makes all these hidden emotions resurfaceee. #FetusBabies 🥹 P.S, I think you guys will like One Day by them especially Summer and Abigail 😙
Love you guysss !
Even Suga said before that he is wondering why they have fans back then 😭😂 it's just soooo cute to see their growth! their looks maybe funky, but talent and their potential is undeniable! 💜 💜 💜
React to J Hopes More and Arson, you're going to be so confused on how different his recent Solo stuff is from what you know about him. Hobi made history in headlining as the first Korean at a big American Musical Festival, he soled 105K Tickets giving Lollapalooza their biggest Crowed in History, he soled Merch worth of 1 Million Dollar, staff that worked there for 30 Years with Music Legends never experienced something like this. the Major of Chicago and the City thanked him for Performing because he bought so much life and Tourism into the City. Hobis Debut Album, Jack in the Box, is the most critical acclaimed Album by a Korean Soloist in History. Recommend Watching his History Making Lollapalooza Stage too. His Song Equal Sign was submitted to a Grammy Award Sub Category about Social Change.
THIIIS! I think they don't know anything about j-hope yet, or about the harder side of bts music as a whole... It's gonna give them some whiplash 😂
Yes! I can't wait for them to see the surprise in More!!! I was like WOW... YESSSS!!!!
My niece introduced me to BTS over 4 years ago. Everytime we watch "No More Dream," she always says they are 7 good boys trying to act like bad boys. She says they are saying, "We bad!" and Armys are saying "they ain't bad, they ain't bad at all!" They are good boys! LOL But they do a great job of convincing those that don't know them that they are whatever concept they are portraying. '
So yes, they are chameleons when it comes to performing! But this shows how talented they are to be able to tackle so many genres successfully.
Also, I believe Bang Si Hyuck, BigHits CEO, put BTS together to be a hip hop group originally, but like he said in one of the videos that he did not put strict rules on them and allowed them to develop and grow as artists. He gave them room to grow and evolve as they grew and evolved as individuals. He gave them the room and freedom to be themselves and not try to package them into a brand that only was one lane. I think this is part of why they have been so successful because they weren't pigeon -holed into a package that was inflexible. I think that's why so many western bands fail after a few years. They start out as teenagers and eventually become adults, but they don't know how to successfully change lanes.
All those adlibs and highnotes are JIMINS. JIMIN is the only who used to do those runs, adlibs & Highnotes in Bts songs early on. Now u saw their Debut song u get it what I been saying for so long.
And the JIMINS ABS part is the reason Bts been put on the map and noticed by people after their Debut stage ( which is them got to perform live on a music show) bc their debut song was a Flop for a debut song from an unknown group from an unknown agency.
But JIMIN gone Viral for making the Killing part aka standing out part in the song with his abs choreo that on SNS ppl were searching for the performance for the “Guy with Abs & Performance were the showing abs” the autocomplete were completing the search engine with that term bc of JIMIN ❤️🔥 So fairly Can say JIMIN Put Bts on the Map as 100s of K-pop groups debuts every year and hardly 10 grps get noticed in that 3/4 grps lasts for few years and Bts was totally Nobodies in every way ❤ so Yeah JIMIN always been that All Rounder Xfactor who Made Bts stand Out in every way among other K-pop groups Bts Nationally & Internationally & KILLING PART MAKER since their Debut 🔥🥰 So soo Proud of JIMIN 😍😘 Can’t Wait JIMINS SOLO DEBUT PJM1 IS COMING ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥

i LOVE no more dream and i especially love the message they’re sending: “i know everyone around you wants you to have a stable job and to have ‘normal’ dreams (big car, big house, big rings) but don’t be afraid to take the risks necessary to follow your REAL dreams (like becoming an artist)” it’s a very bts way of debuting, especially when you know that this was not a topic spoken about, even less in the kpop industry. bts really debuted with full honesty and really represented what the youth was going through.
They tried to be bad boys, so cute🤣
This is my fave song of them. 💜 It may not be their best but this is the song that accompany in my hardest time in school. Playing No More Dream while doing a bunch of research papers and thesis at midnight till dawn is a fond memory I always look back. Its this song that keep me wake up when my coffee cant anymore 😂😂 and mind you I wasnt really a fan of them back then haha. My cousin is a kpop fan and she always make me listen to kpop songs every time there is a new k-idol that debut. Though I like listening to the songs, among all of them, Bangtan's song/MV/song lyrics is the only one that made me interests in them. I watch their vlogs and bangtan bombs made me fall for them. I become a fan since then and up until now. Never regrets I did. 💜💜💜
Jungkook was 15 when they debuted with No More Dream (he'd just graduated middle school then), JIn was 20
even though the company was about to go under, they tried the best they can to release something that can put them on the map, BigHit struggled financially the first couple of years after debut, in their earlier mvs, their staff and managers participated as extras in the mvs. when you watch the mv of their song Run, all the cars and the vehicles were of their managers'.
I love this so much to look back on and see how their style has evolved musically over the years. It's a bop, it's just fun to see the changes.
This is definitely heavily managed style wise. They were set to debut as hip hop and had to play the part but over the years they found their own sound. This Jimin always makes me feel nostalgic and makes me think about how he was really doing the most to portray what he thought the job needed. He's mentioned it elsewhere that this was him basically falling victim to toxic masculinity (paraphrasing like crazy because he's far more eloquent than me), and how much better he felt when he allowed himself to just be himself.
Sometimes when I watch older kpop stuff I get whiplash from the styling (not as much here), and dear god the hair. It was fine then because the whole industry was doing it, but wow. I'm so glad smartphones didn't exist when I was in my teens. I was a mess, but the evidence is hard copy only. 😂
i am an official editor xen stan now💜
thank you for putting jimin's abs 🙇감사합니다 💜💜
hahah thank u for the appreciation ☺️
I loved it when you said that they’re going all hard and stuff but its all supportive and positive
You guys should watch a live with the dance break. JK rapping is everything.
Oh man every time I see this MV it's An Experience lol. They were just babies here (comparatively speaking). Bless their little hearts, they were trying out their bad boy visuals concepts when they couldn't have been any further from that in real life. It gives me the same feelings I had as a kid when my parents would show me pics of them as teens in their bell-bottomed jeans, wild 70s prints and afros.
