Not only kpop girls even kpop boys were do the same lyrics back to back till the end .. it's so boring and looking at bts they deserve really more for there artistic poetic lyrics , even though there english pop hits hit different
And as an additional note, to be honest, in America or even in South Korea particular, BTS has received a lot of hatred and unfair treatment, but BTS has always shown progress in music and always prioritizes the quality of music and what is more important than music, namely the meaning it wants. they convey to the public. If BTS only thought about materials/money then they wouldn't spend millions of dollars just for 1 music video, they wouldn't go to such great lengths to prepare props and stage sets at concerts, hold free concerts for their fans, and even donate on behalf of their fans. From there we realized that as ARMY we never make the wrong choice and support idols. Yeah, that's Our BTS..... Thank you for great reaction💜
true i saw the trailer for BTS new doco serie on disney+ and they laterally said that BTS was able to reach people all over the world with their sincerity, and that alone should be their legacy. others may have good music here and there but true legends move people. they make them make a difference MJ did that and BTS did that. idk if others did that too but i am sure there are others.
Just note that people might get mistaken when she says “armys will buy every album, BTS depends on armys” it might sounds like BTS is using Armys enthusiasm for money, but regardless that Armys are willingly doing that, BTS always pays back to armys. They have held not multiple but a lot of FREE events for armys that cost millions dollars. They have held FESTA 2023 for armys which basically like a festival that gather around 400k people on the venue to celebrate BTS 10th anniversary and it was not just a basic funfair festivals you can look it up, and their legendary Yet To Come Busan FREE CONCERT that have 55,000 attendees. Not to mention how they have rent a venue just for armys who are queuing to take shelter during a super hot weather, they also keep giving super expensive gift for FREE to armys who came supporting them to watch the music shows they’re performing and many more. AND also, those physical album that are mass bought by army are not thrown away, they gave away the albums to armys who can’t afford to buy themselves. 💜💜
Which is why I want to go to a concert, so much freebies, meeting all kinds of Armys and watching Bangtan do their thing. Unfortunately, I live on Guam.
Another frustrating thing is when people are questioning me like why do you care about this? you are not even related to the artist and you are not even an artist but I think its really important to know and care about this kind of things because it doesn't happened only to music industry. Corruption is a very dangerous issue if we keep closing our eyes . Innocent people can be put down and wrongly accused when corruption in power. Just look at politics. When all evil people is at the top, it will be harder to stop them.
UA-cam music does that too. That is why I turned off my mobile data when listening to music. I download the songs I want to listen and listen to them offline. When I used to listen to music with internet, Blackpink songs suddenly played in a BTS playlist made by UA-cam... always. I don't hate them. I just want to listen to all BTS songs if I click on BTS playlist. But suddenly, another song was played.
The principle that we built between BTS and Army are takes and gives. and we strive for everyone or content that supports BTS to support it too. That is a form of our responsibility and loyalty as fans. Don't worry because when you find BTS, Army will find you. That's what differentiates army from other fandoms (loyalty and enthusiasm)💜
Bts tickets prices have been: nosebleed seats $60, middle seat tickets $120-$175, floor tickets $250 and soundcheck vip tickets $450. The prices are about the same in every country. The problem is that Bts tickets are sold out in under 30minutes. Everything you see in sale after that are resale tickets from people that got tickets and are trying to benefit by selling them at over price. Army has ticket resale sites where real armys sell tickets to other armys for the value price and not scam or cheat. I bought myself tickets to Agust d concert from facebook army ticket sales site and paid $450 for vip soundcheck ticket, when in ticketmaster scammer resale prices were $5000- $10000.
@@TripTipsPodcast Well, Ticketmaster is a known scam, they have a monopoly and no regulation, so they do what the heck they want. They get a kickback- I forget what percent- of every re-listed ticket, so they're basically hand in glove with the scalpers.
@@TripTipsPodcast Hi! Im trying to answer to a question here that was made for me, but youtube keeps deleting my answer. Can you check your youtube studio if my comments are there in the to be reviewed section?
A little correction. Ice spice blew up with Pink pantheress on Boy’s a Liar. The karma remix Taylor had with Ice spice actually flopped commercially even though it had radioplay. And even with how much swifties claimed to dislike the remix, it got a Grammy nomination, just like how boracity explained If the commercial route fails, they opt for the Grammy route. Such a classic industry move😂
Concert ticket presale for those with paid ARMY membership is actually not insanely expensive. But once tickets sales hit the general public (assuming there’s any ticket left at all) or once you are left with ticket resale and third party sellers, that’s when prices really skyrocket. So the best time is to catch the presale directly from the source; easier said than done, of course.
You guys don't have any idea of the amount of sabotages BTS' members have received lately. It's crazy and SO unfair. Billboard keep changing the rules every time they get a hit and they are the only ones that end up falling from the charts while the others stays the same. BTS barely gets radio points and the other artists under American labels get millions because of payola... How is that the general public being basically forced to listen to certain songs due to the industry's tactics is more organic that fans listening their favorite artists whenever they want? How is that the majority of these artists that get #1 all the time can't really do stadium tours like Bangtan or even sold out arenas? I'm sorry but the fact radio airplay now weight more than real people streaming and buying songs makes no sense to me. AND we are basically getting robbed because wdym 90% of Jimin's the sales were deleted? This is real people's money, efforts to support. And the saddest and most frustrating thing is that armys always try to show to the world this issue but we get zero response. The general public ignore us because it's BTS and ignoring because they are of racist and xenophobic too. Why BTS gets all that unprovoked hate? Like bro all the sht the industry is doing is so wrong and that can affects small artists as well.. If things like this would happen to an American artist or a white artist, people would react differently and unite to complain too (it have happened before with 5sos), but because it's about BTS, an Asian group, people chooses to ignore all the corruption. That's disgusting. No matter how much they change their rules and try to drag them down, we will not allow that and after all, Bangtan doesn't need their help to increase streams. They are the ones that can really sold out stadiums in minutes globally. Like I said, BTS and Army only have each other and we both have gone though so many hardship but always find the way to keep going. We will adapt and find the way to keep BTS at the top and make them succeed as always because they deserve it. We shouldn't think much about this but it is really frustrating and the best thing we can do is not ignore this issue, that would be like helping them to destroy Bangtan. I'm not saying that a number or getting certain awards will define how good they are because this is a corrupt industry, but giving them this things are a way of showing our support and reciprocate our love to them because BTS have already gave us so much happiness, strength and comfort with their music, messages, content and more. 💜 (Sorry for the long comment)
the gra**y and bi**board behaviour actually isn't just simply shitty and xenophobic. it's a tactic of extortion: exhaust the independent artist by blocking it from free success until they give into the system
Army's care and we work hard for them. Others ask us not to vote so their idols have a chance which iss sad for their idols. I stan BTS and only BTS. Borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜✊🏼
Oh, and when BTS announced their military service, fandoms were like, "Finally, someone else can win awards!" Dude. Do you not realize that you just admitted your faves need the competition removed entirely before they can measure up? I do feel very bad for other idols when I see the results of voting, though. It's always BTS vs a selected BTS-beater- sometimes SKZ, sometimes Ateez, sometimes GOT7...Shinee- and it depresses me to scroll down the list of nominees and see, BTS 37%, BTS-beater, 35%, 3rd place group 4%, 4th and under, less than 2%. It must be so miserable for the idols if they look at the numbers and have to say, 'Gee, I guess all our...fans... are voting for #2 instead of us, because #2 beating BTS is more important than supporting us....' That's another of the major differences between ARMY and everyone else: we vote for our guys if they're first, second, seventh, or fiftieth. You don't catch us throwing our votes to, say, SKZ, in the hopes that they'll get the award and BP won't.
Taylor is big but I thing only in USA. Her influence outside of USA is not the same as Bts. A lot of USA singers are well promoted around the world but they do not have the same power.
It’s just so sad that we can see in our own eyes how corrupt the industry is and the only one who got supported is the one who have a money, that’s really sad because of the unfair presentation. Just like bts said ARMYS are the one who can they lean on and fight to music industry for it’s unfair presentation!
@@TripTipsPodcast Actually I used to not believe it, not till I watched it with my own eyes how BTS views in UA-cam "magically" disappears. I've literally seen it myself, and it wasn't just hundred thousands of view but MILLIONS!!! Once I saw that, I was so frustrated. The numbers were turning red which means the views were rapidly decreasing, and I thought all Kpop groups views must be like this so I watched Jisoo's "Flower" views but her views was fine, so I watched Twice "Set Me Free" views, theirs were fine too. So I checked Jimin's "Like Crazy" but it was all red. So I watched the line charts of Newly released Kpop songs views and compared them. It's only Jimin that has such a weird line chart, cause it looks like a ladder going downwards, but other Kpop groups are still straight line and only going upwards. Besides UA-cam deleting his views and Spotify filtering more than half of his streams and Billboard deleting 90% of his songs sales. TikTok is also sabotaging him too. Only recently I've seen Jimin's dance challenge with Taemin and the views were 44M. But the next day it went from 44 million views to 22M. I even have screenshots of it as proof. However the views of other Kpop idols like Taemin were unaffected. It's only the vid were Jimin appears that has the views mysteriously gets deleted. Also another fun fact that you can search in Google. The word "Jimin" can no longer trend on TWITTER, cause Twitter deleted it or should I say deliberately change it to a regular word or phrase that people use everyday like "good morning" "hello", etc. So that it would no longer appear on trending page. Basically even if millions of people hashtags "Jimin" on Twitter, it won't trend at all. Anyways, it's no longer about whether you believe there's corruption in the music industry or not, but the facts were right there. Even if it's not obvious it's still very suspicious. Like how can JK's views in 10 days the same number as Stray Kids views in just 3 days?? It just doesn't add up, sure StrayKids is popular in Kpop sphere but if you ask any random person on the street who StrayKids are, they certainly wouldn't know. But they certainly would have heard of BTS. I've tested it, I've ask my classmates who doesn't know anything about Kpop if they've heard of StrayKids, NCT, TXT, ATEEZ, ENHYPHEN, New Jeans, IVE, etc. They of course haven't heard of them, but they've unsurprising heard of BTS and BP and little bit of EXO. So the views just doesn't makes sense. Besides I've seen lots of Kpop groups like StrayKids, Black Pink, XG, and even the new debuted group Baby Monster have tons of Music Video sponsored ads in UA-cam but I have never seen a BTS ad before. And you already know, those ads count as views even if you skipped it.
just for information, a list of the 50 most searched K-pop male idols on Google in the United States in 2023 1. V BTS 2. Jungkook BTS 3. Suga BTS 4. Jimin BTS 5. RM BTS 6. Jhope BTS 7. JIN BTS 8- 9- 10- etc In fact, in general and as a group they are still leading in 1st position. I purple U 💜
I really liked this reaction, the collective work of the Army is to review the numbers on the public lists, with that we can get an idea and stream at the right time in the right way to avoid being kicked. It also happens with purchases, we are a team that is not only obsessed with numbers, we also appreciate art and that is why it motivates us to give our best, bc we receive the best in quality from BTS. 27:24 here you talk about Girl Groups I recommend you Mamamoo 😉 They have a similar history to Bangtan, only due to poor promotion they are not very famous. They also have quality solo careers 👍The sad thing is that there is not enough translated material from them, but I recommend them to have them on your playlist.
I wholeheartedly 2nd Mamamoo! Not only do they have deep, meaningful songs, as a group & individually (as well as fun, catchy ones) but they're also seriously talented vocalists & entertainers that get to show it off in their diverse discography. There is no copy & paste when it comes to their music.
that´s true. i only listened to a few songs but their lyric was deferent from other kpop groups. they also have more mature fans as far as i have seen.
Yes, UA-cam did that only to BTS.. we saw the numbers gained from our streaming then they deleted our views by millions, every single time…agree with you about the girl groups.. lol.. BTS’s concerts sold out so fast for example Wembley stadium or MetLife hold 85-90 thousand people and it sold out lest than 2 hours and those is for fans only before the general public can buy..getting their tickets is the hunger game for us..
T Swift's collab with ice spice wasnt as random. The guy Taylor was dating at the time got exposed for saying racist stuff towards ice spice during a podcast and fans started urging Taylor to break up with him but the very next day she announced a collab with ice spice instead. It was a pr stunt
That's tell me all I need to know about the Swift woman, the person she was 'dating' and Ice Spice. They clearly are all cut from the same cloth. Glad I never liked the woman's music. As my grandmother would say 'I wouldn't give it house room'.
Well, that just reduced my respect for her dramatically. You do NOT use racism as a promoting ploy. And if you're an artist, have some self-respect; don't let anyone make you the butt of racist remarks just to get fan attention. Shame on them all.
With the ticket prices, the really expensive tickets are from resellers. BTS tickets are not too bad considering the expenses of getting their props & stage etc over to other countries. Plus they have to make multiple of them so that if they do a concert in the US & then go to Brazil, they already have everything in both countries. Nothing would be worst than all your stage, props etc being delayed in customs or go missing in transit. ARMY have a strict policy of not buying from resellers unless it’s a day of or a day or two before & we won’t let the resellers make a huge profit, so if they don’t drop the ridiculous price (one concert the reseller want U$40,000) then we won’t buy. The ticketing companies (although they are own by the one company) allows this practice because they get a cut of both the original sale & the resell. BTS last concert in US, no one but BTS fans were allowed to buy tickets in pre-sale, the tickets sold out before they were due to go on sale for the general public & there were no ridiculous resale prices in tickets. The only tickets I remember seeing up for resale were when the buyer had been trying for all four days just hoping to be able to tickets for one or a family emergency happened & they could no longer go, (ticket purchasing by ARMY is cut throat, we sometimes call it the Hunger Games), but got multiple days. They were reselling at ticket face value, no profit.
@@TripTipsPodcast some ARMY that can afford it will sometimes buy en extra ticket & give it away for free to someone who has arrived at the stadium but doesn’t have a ticket, they just wanted to hear the guys live even if they can not see them. ARMY will make gifts that they pass around to other ARMY before the concerts.
i want you guys to know that one of the key reasons as to why bts succeeded globally was because army, their fandom, wasi/is filled with people like boracity. at the end of the video you said how impressed you are that boracity knows so much about the industry and i instantly had to come to comment this - most armys learned all this from research and experience since 2017. the ways the charts and the industry work? we all studied that shit. back in 2016 we fans studied the chart rules EXCESSIVELY. and the main reason for this was bc we knew that bts had no one else on their side but us. we knew that it was we fans who could make things happen for them and become their shield on the way to the top. so we used to have a bunch of fanbases with the sole purpose of 1) educating every army on VALID chart rules (aka how to buy or stream in ways to make it count for charts) 1) testing out new methods of how to optimize of our efforts the most. we would have teams do testings on how to stream, what makes a stream filtered. how to buy? how many times you can buy and in what ways to make it count? back in the day we even had fanbases for us states radios just for requests. armys were mad researchers and we climbed higher and higher on the charts each time bc after each success we sat down to study what worked and what we could do even better next time. and also we were all here for all the times where we did everything correctly and yet the industry made shady moves against bts and us. and that's why how we came to these realizations about how the industry is interconnected and how it works. one of the major reasons as to why the western industry despises the bts army is because how INFORMED and smart we are. you won't find any other fandom to any other artists who know more about chart rules and such than bts army. and we are a MASS. this knowledge is on a massive platform's scale. and every time we make bts succeed purely based on their own talent and our efforts of supporting them, the industry not only doesn't profit off of it but we as fans also successfully end up illuminating the industry's actual shady business and sabotages. so they hate bts and their fans because the more we succeed it became harder and harder to sabotage us without also shedding a massive light on their own corruption.
The problem with GG is that they start really strong with great music but the moment they receive success, the labels kinda stop investing their time on their concept or songs and focus more on objectifying them. Many who have left the label end up making amazing songs. Try New Jeans Ditto, OMG, closer etc and Le Sserafim's impurities, antifragile, sour grapes etc. Or Mamamoo Hwasa's Maria and illela or I miss you or egotistic.
@@TripTipsPodcast Quicker they go the quicker they'll all be back together and Jin back in about 6.5months so looking forward to whatever he's going to bring us eg a album and then a couple months after that J Hope will be back then we wait till June 2025 for them all to be back together again.
The author of Boracity, as always, did a wonderful job. Without any scruples, she exposed the dirty tricks of the music industry not only in the US but also in Korea... I'm not surprised that K-pop itself doesn't arouse your enthusiasm. I recommend seeing another essay "Is the hybe family a think?" on Boracity discussing the so-called k-pop families associated with music labels. This material clearly shows the weakness of this industry, which lies in its ossified framework and an anachronistic system that does not motivate idols to develop themselves. This year's MAMA and Melon Awards 2023 galas without big names on stage (read BTS) mercilessly exposed the weakness of K-pop and its smallness outside Asia. Moreover, this year's awarding of awards at both events raises many doubts. Jimin (the first Korean ever to chart at No. 1 on the Billboard 100), who was inundated with nominations, received only one award. V, who delighted in his refined vocal virtuosity in the Layover project and absolutely stood out from other projects (probably addressed only to "forest grandparents" 70+), was not honored with any award. Another example. It's unbelievable how it was possible to nominate the least hip-hop song Suga (performed with IU) for an award this year (in the Rap&Hip-hop category) and ignore Haegum. This is absolutely the most powerful song from D-day, exposing the confusion and helplessness of the modern world in the face of a flood of contradictory and unverifiable media information, societies incited to sick competitiveness based on the worst of instincts: envy. Apparently, for Korea (or rather the K-pop industry), the size of BTS and their solo projects are a problem. And perhaps that is why their achievements and importance in their own country are constantly downplayed... Greetings from Europe🤗💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I was just watching a video the other night about how low MAMA viewing was without BTS there. And yes, the awarding was a sick joke. I'm saying to myself that MAMA (I haven't looked into the MMAs yet) is doing their best to emulate the grammys, which is about as potent an insult as I can throw, in music-award terms.
I am a Army 💜🇧🇷💜 Love Taylor Swift sense the bigner of her carer. My kids have all her cds and went to her shows and always wish her the best and support her as well, she is a beautiful human being, that’s another reason oIam a Army, not only love their music but love them as individuals.💜💜💜 thanks for the reaction 💜💜💜💜
@@TripTipsPodcast 36:38 You're right Maybe BTS and Taylor Swift Fans are close in numbers. But that's not accurate at all. First of all. BTS is clearly in DISADVANTAGE. Forget about the suppression of both West and Kpop Industry, people don't even bother to give them a chance because they already have negative pre-concieve notion of Kpop so they automatically view BTS in negative light without even actually listening to any of their music. Secondly people in the West usually look down on "boy bands", not to mention a "POP" band like BTS. Thirdly, even people in South Korea don't listen to BTS, why? Because they are labeled as Kpop or kpop idols. Majority of people in South Korea don't treat "idol music" seriously cause it's just nothing more than noisy but glamorous music designed for young kids. Fourthly, BTS are Asians so they constantly face extreme racism and xenophobia. Fifth, BTS are constantly being looked down upon and being ridiculed by most men around the world because they aren't "masculine" enough. 6th, BTS also faces LANGUAGE BARRIER, cause obviously they aren't English and 97% of their songs aren't in English. And as you may know it's obviously a lot easier for any English artist to be popular globally but this does not apply to BTS. 7th, most ppl automatically thinks BTS are for kids or for teenage girls, so most males and older people don't bother to try them out. 8th, besides discrimination out of ignorance, BTS also constantly faces fierce competition in the Kpop Industry, cause the Kpop Industry can't wait to replace them. So they sneakily also sabotage them. Besides it's no secret that most Kpop fans hates BTS so usually they would unite and vote other groups that would compete against BTS in hopes of defeating them. Taylor Swift on the other hand doesn't have these obstacles, she doesn't get sabotaged or gets suppressed by the Music Industry either. Also she's American so she kinda have no problem winning any Grammy's. And she has no fierce competition in the Industry either cause it's not like there's artist out there who can replace her in any given moment and she had been in the Industry for a very very long time. So she also has lots of World Tours, etc. BTS on the other hand, barely has any. They only have at most 3 or 4 throughout their career and their last world tour was like 5-6 years ago. And besides Taylor Swift doesn't need to enlist in the military, so she doesn't have "hiatus" or need to take a break for like 2 years. BTS on the other hand doesn't have that luxury. Lastly, BTS doesn't came from a huge label or company so their company have no power and influence to promote them. They also have no industry support unlike bands one direction, Black Pink, EXO, and other bands from Big 3. So technically comparing the quantity of Taylor Swift fans, and any other bands or any other artist around the world to BTS fans is not fair at all. Cause BTS fans is already one of the biggest if not THE BIGGEST fandom around the world. Hardly ANYONE can match that number except probably Taylor Swift who doesn't have disadvantages. So do you know how crazy that is?? The fact that insane number is merely the result of BTS being heavily on DISADVANTAGE. Other artists would even cheat their way to appear even way bigger than they actually are yet BTS is still far bigger than most of them despite the unfair chains that binds them. So if we take off all of their disadvantage one by one, can you even begin to imagine how big BTS actually is?!?
Taylor Swift or her company pays for her to be at number 1, however TS is a great artist but still no matter how good you are as an artist, you have to have the industry support and your company to pay for radio, streams (curated playlisting)and allow album sales that come from merchandise, that is how TS can break records. I love TS but I know she pays to be where she is at, at least at the beginning of her career
i am not saying TS is a bad artist but she wouldn't be in her position and with the number of awards she has speaking other language and with no american company after her
Whoa you guys are the first reactors I’ve seen who actually have a good understanding of the industry. Before I became an army I knew nothing about the industry. I was shocked to find out radio is a total scam. Great reaction, I don’t often watch reactors anymore but i enjoyed your commentary.
Radio wasn't always a scam, of course. It has been around for over a century, invented in the 1890s, & was the main media even after film & television were starting to slooowly take over starting in the 1920s. It only started becoming scammy, or scam-ish, once it was losing prevalence & relevancy, especially for these past couple decades, because it is an industry that is trying to desperately survive in the age of the computer & Internet. I would say the radio stations that are at least the good ones are those that rely on listener donations & usually does a pledge drive at least once a year. I listen to one western Classical station that does that. I listen to much much less radio nowadays if computer & television are not available, compared to the amount of radio in the 1970s & 1980s as a kid. The only time now that makes sense for radio listening is when driving in a car & that applies to practically everyone around the world. Radio should not really count anymore when it comes to music charting, or at least it can count, but at a smaller percentage than what charts use it for. I still have a few old radios I have kept, like old hand-held transistor radios & also have an AM radio kit I put together as a kid since I am an electronics person. I would love to see BTS brand-market a small cheap but quality transistor radio, that would be a combination radio & MP3 player & sold as merch at their concerts. They just have to do it in a way that it won't (or less) create fake reproductions by other people/scammers.
For me BTS is my family.. back in 2014 until now they remained my second family .. not everyone can understand but i love them unconditionally . I will fight for them without them telling me to. All the hardwork they did all the struggle, they said ARMY IS IN FRONT OF THEM PULLING THEM UP..
Those fans who said EXO is bigger than BTS is false but I’ll say EXO was big but once BTS came into the scene EXO fell far back and was getting passed by newer groups.
Thanks for this. I'm new to you but have been a BTS fan for 3 years. In even quite a bit older than you, but live they're music and their associated empire of shows. The solo efforts of the bots have been so fine and so varied, it's a crime they're treated so. They know they won't get awards except fan awards usually, if they're invited to appear, they're there for eye candy and ratings. A V live with --was it Jungkook? -- got more people watching than the Grammys when they weren't there in 2023. They made the ratings for Grammy when they performed Butter in 2022.
Many still feel like BTS stole the global fame that their fave groups were entitled to as those groups came from better companies with better resources, better professionals to help them and better connections. Many EXO stans still feel slighted by BTS's success and try to push the narrative that they're not that big or successful and it's really EXO who has worldwide fame. They're still living in the past, trapped in another era about 8 years ago when that group was genuinely on top by kpop standards at that time. I suspect that it hurts their pride to accept that BTS got this massive after they made fun of them for being poor, cringy, ugly, untalented, nugus (meaning nobodies or literally 'who' in English). They were taught that only Big 3 companies could produce the biggest acts so they still can't wrap their minds around this change that broke the kpop wheel. Some even trying to rename Big 3 to the Big 4 to include HYBE so that it can make more sense to them how a nobody company could grow big enough to buy up the others if it wanted to. It's more insulting to them as that growth was all on the backs of the group they bullied and tried to get disbanded. It's sad because it didn't need to be like that. You'd think they would have gotten over it and grown by now, but they're still forcing this weird competition that they lost years ago. They would rather fight ARMY online than focus on buying, streaming and voting for their group because they're still stuck in the mindset that the group is so big and special that they can do well on their own without majoy fan support. Then they cry online when BTS wins everything and they have to listen to thank you speeches where BTS praise ARMY. They could be working hard to get their group back on top but they rather stalk BTS livestreams and posts so they can make fun of them online. It would be infuriating if it wasn't so sad.
what you said about the lyrics in girl groups is true. that´s why girl groups are mainly big on youtube or tik tok because men only like to stare at them dance. and music from tik tok is all about the catchy beat not lyrical substance. so BTS is the only kpop group who is popular among all generations and not just the youth. and that is because of the lyrics and positive messages. now a days a bad story sell more than the good. but then comes BTS who as a bright positive message of change and people is hungry for it. it was what happened to me. i had listened to a few kpop songs before BTS but non of them spoke to me it was just overly visual based music and the lyrics don´t matter. so it´s really great to se BTS being at the front showing how music should be like. it reminds me of music like MJ with amazing msg and also many of the classic songs.
I actually caught 50,000 views deleted from JK's Calvin Klein ad. 2hrs later (yes, I went back to watch again , what girl wouldn't 😁)The views were 50,000 less. I had heard of this but never seen it with my own eyes......On an advertisement YT did this🤨
I think they know bc it can’t be coincidence. Like jungkook announces a digital single. Within one day billboard announces they won’t count digital,singles anymore. By itself not suspicious. But after every release there is a random change. It adds up
Taylor Swift has a giant fandom, too. She is one of the few artists who has sold out stadium tours. BTS can sell their tickets for higher prices, but they have always tried to keep their ticket prices reasonable for fans. Their canceled MOTS7 tour (due to the pandemic) tickets prices were kept the same price for their Permission to Dance concerts, which were held after the pandemic, even though they were a lot more popular and had gained more fans at the time. Also, BTS (group) has not used Dynamic Pricing for tickets, like many of the Western artists do. Taylor had dynamic pricing for the tickets for her most recent tour. Dynamic pricing is when ticket prices are determined by supply and demand... less tickets equals higher prices.
Something id like to mention about how you said a lot kpop girls and kpop boys have superficial af songs, thats general the title track. Songs with repeatability, that are ear worms, and super catchy are the title tracks, they tend to be easier to listen to with superficial meaning bcs thats what, sadly, gets the general public's attention. Most groups have way deeper b-side tracks, because unlike BTS, they cannot afford a complex song as a title track, there's also the fact most groups dont have the level of autonomy that BTS does, BTS havent just been writing their music since the start, but now hold stocks in their company. No group in kpop or even a lot of western artists have this level of autonomy. Another thing Id like to add, men do not need talent to make it big either, there are many mediocre men with zero personality who are hella famous, and male artists DO sell sex. It seems more evident with women because our whole bodies are way more sexualized than men's, but men do sell sex, whether its the attitude, the face, the body, the very sexual or explicit songs. Men sell sex just as much and often times use the sexualization of women to do it. At least women sell sex by sexualizing themselves. 😂 Also you're mad that they sell sex but that's what the public consumes so that's what artists cater... so, who's at fault? Either way, i mainly listen to foreign songs or indie artists because while i do enjoy a sexy song, the hyper sexualization is not something i enjoy all the time. About the jewish people being at the top, its less jewish people, and more Zionist groups that are at the top, but people dont like talking about that, or people would be way more concerned about whats going on right now on the other side of the world. In general, you made very good points, but i just wanted to clarify this.
@DANDJREACT advice. Log into the ticket website and confirm payments and pw then stand in virtual line for 2 hrs before they go on sale. I got tickets to their BBMA and other sold out tickets for festivals that way. If it's too early you'll get pushed back and then can't get anything. A minute to late and it'll be sold out. Then marked up to 4-10gs
It's really really true,bts has talent totally package nood , when RM speech ND other bts members only just smile is enough to Me to watch them and I learn a lot no need to , other artists so daring to make views
😑about YT.. Army conducted a experiment, was done with multiple contents for a period of a few months, if I'm not mistaken, the views of any content that has bts in its name are frozen, deleted or views are not counted... even if The content has nothing to do with BTS but in the information it seems their name
You guys are awesome, calling Ice Spice rapping just showing asses! You guys rock and just real. Unless they are the Rap line, they don’t hold a candle!
Taylor has fans in US.... But BTS have fan bases all over the world.. Especially in Asia.. Considering south, south east and middle east asia... Where taylor isn't that big
It all about MONEY!!!! Just as long we all know that foreign artists are better and movies done by none American studios are better. Yes, I am for creating an ASIAN Billboard AWARDS!!! Asia has a lot of TALENTS!!!
Seven dominated spotify daily global chart for weeks, being #1 most played song day after day, but on spotify's Top Hits playlist it was always dangling somewhere on #10th place lol. that playlist is total bs
I loved your reaction and how you made the difference btw BTS and all the other K-pop groups. I'm not a K-pop fan/follower, I'm a fan of BTS, They are on another level as you said. Keep reacting to them, and to their solo projects. Greetings from Argentina!
In addition to bundling, TS also has a history of releasing multiple album versions. 3 easy examples: Folklore (18), Midnight (20+), 1989 (18) etc. Too tired & disillusioned to look-up ALL the limited, exclusive or bundled + variant versions/packages available for them OR for rest of her many other albums…..... I find this truly disheartening since it now forces me to re-examine her artistic integrity & re-visualize some of her formerly “courageous” actions as calculated risks instead. And re the Ice Spice racism/xenophobia ugliness:- Not just media critics but even her own fandom actually called her (& ex-bf) out on the entire fiasco & disingenuous PR damage-control cleanup. With her undeniably tremendous talents, TS is actually 1 of few artists powerful (& privileged) enough to NOT have to engage in mercenary tactics & yet still be able to succeed in the industry. So her questionable choices really hurt those who respect(ed) her, her music and/or even consider her as a role model.
Maybe the best reaction that I have watched. I agree with your assessment of girl groups. Playboy bunnies. I am 70 so I've been exposed to a lot of music & genres. BTS is unmatched.
Taylor swift is name the queen of pop. But BTS just became the fastest group in the music industry to have 8 no.1 songs on billboards hot 100. Taylor Swift is second artist to have 6 no.1 songs on hot 100, after BTS. BTS are the Kings of Pop. BTS has over 300 billion streams on Spotify beating every music artists in the world. They are truly remarkable Artists. This is why the music industry is so scared and terrified of BTS.
another channel I'm subscribing to haha. I'm gonna go over yur patreon next ! Thank you for supporting the boys. I hope they return well from their military service
Just want to leave it here: the words like BTS and Jimin is censored on Twitter, for the reason that these words(names)is always trending. So ARMYs on twt uses another word likr "BTS BTS BTS" and "JIMIM" instead. So it's not impossible if reaction channels like yours gets affected by these algorithms if you put BTS or ARMY keywords. ARMYs will always support BTS. And our fandom is known for being organized and strategic. We can thwart political propagandas and trend something if we really desire to. ARMYs have seen many reaction channels and we know how our support will help these channels grow, and we are proven how some of these clout chasing channels are not genuine. We spread the word and actively "blacklist" some of those of channels 😂. But it seems to me you are genuine. Thank you for always supporting BTS and for being understanding of ARMYs protectiveness. IF you continue to support BTS, ARMYs will always have your support in return! Borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 P.S I just clicked the subscribe button after watching many of your videos for weeks. I'll share this to my close ARMY friends 😉
@@TripTipsPodcast thats so irresponsible. As 2 people who are not part of either community you are discussing, how can you feel so comfortable claiming a whole race of people hate asian people. Are you going to claim jewish people are practicing blood libel next? I couldn't even finish this video it was so disappointing to see
I feel very much the same about the girl groups. Having said that, check out Mamamoos Killing Voice. While they arent as deep as our boys, they have some pretty decent music, and are vocally very impressive
MAMAMOO is 3rd generation girl group just like bts and is underrated…. They are from small company as well Literally made their company wht they r today cuz of their hardwork !!! They are on hiatus rn as well as members are releasing their personal albums but they haven’t disbanded…. They are amazing n only gg which i can listen to other than bts… girls are super talented but underrated i would recommend to check them out ! Check killer voice mamamoo so in a video u can see their vocals n different genres of songs… they can do typical kpop song and ballads, jazz , pop literally everything… n their music is self produced n lyrics have meaning!!!!!
You can't blame artists for having to play the game here in order to make their dreams come true, but I will blame the industry for taking advantage of people . I am very happy BTS never had to play along to make it.I wish there was a way for fair play to be the norm, and only talent mattered, but greed always seems to be what rules. I am not a swifty, I am Army and I only stan BTS, but I will say I like her message to her fans. She has put herself in the sights of the far right because of it. And I am not Jewish. But I really wish you would not single out Jews as the problem with the music industry. I think keeping politcs out of your reactions would be a more enjoyable experience for me. The news of the world is heartbreaking, I watch reaction to enjoy other people find out why BTS is so special. Good reaction ,for the most part. See you soon.💜
jimin was sabotage in the american music but after he was hired to be the global ambassador of dior their shares of stocks had the biggest increase in their history, not only dior, he`s the ambassador of tiffany and all the members are ambassadors of luxury brands, they could have hired anyone but they choose bts because they sell everything , not just smoke
But even if it was the same people going to different concert they still pay for tickets. But considering they sell out arenas in different countries so im sure its not always the same people. And what I’ve seen taylor swift fans and Armys Usually don’t get along. Taylor swift fans like to say she’s much better and has more fans and us armys say the same.
I know you guys have so much respect for BTS but kindly refrain from bringing other groups down, it’s very uncalled for. When you said TXT, NCT and EXO brings in ‘trash’ reaction video views it’s unnecessary (these groups literally does millions of sales and views). Yes they are not as big as BTS, but these groups are arguably in the top 10 biggest groups in the world right now. Also for someone reviewing a video that literally talked about algorithm you failed to put that on your own understanding of your channel, ever thought that your reaction to other groups are just not well recommended? I have seen other reaction channels who do better in views reacting to EXO, NCT etc. compared to the BTS videos they put out. Also for context EXO, first kpop to chart on the Canadian Billboard, EXO has won over Justin Bieber and One Direction (during these two massive artists pop peak) in voting for the 2013 MTV Europe Music Awards, they have also performed in the closing ceremony of the 2018 Winter Olympics, and many more. Just because they are not the biggest does not mean they bring in ‘trash’ views just shows you that majority of your subscribers comes from one specific fandom and that’s of BTS. Some of the things on the video you were reacting to are very one sided, the video literally said that Jisoo’s Flower MV from Blackpink is not worthy to be the most viewed MV of 2023 is stupid, even claimed that only BTS gets views deleted till this day when this is also very relevant to the video being dissed as well. Blackpink’s UA-cam account has the most subscribers amongst ANY music artists on the planet, she alone is the 3rd most followed kpop artist on Instagram just behind two more Blackpink members, she has more than enough power to go head to head with BTS in views, the two most viewed kpop group MV are Blackpink’s Ddu-Du Ddu-du and Kill This Love with 2.2 billion and 1.9 billion views respectively. Also Blackpink has topped the most viewed kpop MV each year more than BTS. I don’t like comparing but since you do, I am just sharing facts. Jennie of Blackpink also holds the most viewed solo idol song ironically called Solo with 1 billion views (obviously if we are not counting Psy as an idol). Out of 2021 releases, Lisa’s Money of Blackpink (979 million) has more views than Butter of BTS (951 million) and that’s a solo song vs a group song. Which Lisa’s song was released 4 months after Butter. Lastly we are thankful you do these reactions but kindly do it with respect, don’t let your bias bring other groups down.
@@TripTipsPodcast I have a feeling that you didn’t read what I said but that’s okay most people don’t like being informed of something they did wrong or negatively but either way thank you for making reaction videos. My main message is just don’t name drop other artists when it is followed by a negative comment.
@@animesquad1244 We had no idea we said anything to offend you personally. We just give our honest views and opinions. Not everyone is going to like or agree with us on every band we react to. Just like you have specific bands you idolize and admire but dislike other bands we are the same. Some we like and others we don’t. It’s a personal preference. I refuse to pretend and be fake on camera and act like we love every song and every band we react to. We will always give our honest reviews and reactions regardless if people don’t agree or like what we say. We’ll always be honest and true to ourselves first.
@@TripTipsPodcast I never said anything about you offending me, and of course you are welcome to react to whoever you want, but based on how you replied to me just shows your true colours. I never said anything about your freedom to like or dislike something, but calling something ‘trash’ that someone puts out is simply low class behaviour. Also informing you of facts DOES NOT MEAN I am telling you who to react to, just refraining you from talking badly of others just because you don’t vibe with certain groups. Now thinking about it I don’t even think it has anything to do with vibing with a certain group because you mentioned on this video you stop doing reactions to those groups because they generate ‘trash’ view counts. Not once did I mention anything about how you react or who to react to, I just said don’t talk NEGATIVELY of others. I am a civil person, so I will unsubscribe, not that it will matter to you, so have a great day, continue making reaction videos and enjoy your upcoming trip to Asia.
Taylor is coming here November 2024 and it's over 4K for nosebleed seats, never mind floor seats. My sister is going and she paid 6200 for her ticket. I had a bad experience with Taylor's fanbase last month. On Twitter I was chatting with some friends and I mentioned that I didn't really know the name of any of her songs and within 5 minutes I was swarmed with hate comments and being told to k myself.
Thank you for your thoughts on girl kpop groups. I agree and am repeatedly dismayed by the numbers (male and female!) who go "Wow" and use other exclamations, as if the performance is outstanding. I just can't understand it - maybe it is a sex thing, but that's pretty ridiculous. I like sex, and even as a woman I like sexually beautiful performances by woman AND men, and yet I find them usually totally non-sexy, non-sensual. And Kpop women - nooooo. So I wonder if this is an Asian fetish thing. Fair play to these artists, they are verrrry restricted in what they can show/ how they are permitted to behave, so their sexualised movements are very stylised and doll or even child like. They are all beautiful, but I find them usually pretty anodyne - because I like intelligence in my sex, thank you very much. BUT - I believe most of them are incredibly talented, skilled and hardworking, some are very intelligent too, but hardly any of the music displays that. I would love to see these women permitted much greater artistic freedom as well as see them write about their own life, challenges and thoughts. That is what makes BTS so great, and it is increasingly what other male groups are starting to do - but not enough, and not as well as BTS who - honestly - have 13 years experience already. I looked it up - Swifties are thought to be about 16% of US populations - c54m. Official BTS fanclub members are probably about 50m, but frankly I, and most of my ARMY friends are not official ARMY members - I suspect that the number of total ARMY might be twice the official club. Boracity's films are always insightful and often crucifying for western media. ARMY often know much of this already - at least at some level. I also think many ARMY's feel that western awards and opinion is irrelevant. I'm a western woman, and I can't bring myself to care. When I look at what does appear on the charts, well, no, who cares. Mindless, repetitive, often racist, often consumerist, often hyper-sexualised, often misogynist rubbish. Rubbish is putting it very politely too. Now, sometimes the actual artists are talented, and perhaps steered a certain way by their companies. Often the music conforms to a computer-analysed profile of what has succeeded. But it is bad music, and will not persist. The artists who will persist are those with something substantial to say and with their own style of presentation. Which is why "that country guy" went viral.
You said all that very well indeed- I think you helped me clarify why girl groups simply do not interest me at all. Yes, and don't get me started on western music; you literally stated my thoughts about the repetition, the lack of creativity and visual imagery, the repetition, the simplified terminology, the repetition... yes, it is BORING. At best. At worst, it's garbage. And of course the double handshake between radio and billboard ensures that boring garbage is almost all we get- since they're actively pushing away anything better. I don't listen to 'modern' music, but I have been a bit dismayed by BTS's shift towards western and their willingness to collab with western artists. Some of them, ok, it works- Coldplay, Megan, Halsey, Usher, Anderson Paak. But some of this... I feel like when you mix BTS and American music, the American is improved, but the BTS suffers by comparison. In the sense that Standing Next to You and 3D are better-than-average songs, even quite good, but do NOT rank with Begin and My Time.
😂😂😂Thank you 🙏🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏 sweetie pie you we're on Fire 🔥🔥 That's how every reactors should react and Explain wow wow I am so so happy to here you speak that 👍🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I think I live under a rock,I have never heard a single TS song and I didn't even know she existed until BTS once mentioned her,I haven't listened to music on the radio since 2014 and I don't consume music that is "mainstream" And since I am army and know more or less how billboard and other rankings work,I distance myself even further from everything that appears there,BTS and TXT are the only kpop groups that I follow because their music is different and not something monotonous, thanks for the video and speaking honestly even though other fandoms may dislike it,stay healthy and happy, borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
@@TripTipsPodcasti really appreciate that you can see the misjudgment that bts has been through. And the confusion between ice spice and spice girls between both of you are hilarious 😂😂
Taylor is lovely, she's definitely America's sweetheart. But BTS is the world's sweetheart, across all continents. I think it's an easy win for BTS.
So true
Well,,nothing to argue with that.
no one knows BTS or Taylor in Eastern Europe tho
@@selar6496 ok 👍
@@selar6496 so!
Not only kpop girls even kpop boys were do the same lyrics back to back till the end .. it's so boring and looking at bts they deserve really more for there artistic poetic lyrics , even though there english pop hits hit different
And as an additional note, to be honest, in America or even in South Korea particular, BTS has received a lot of hatred and unfair treatment, but BTS has always shown progress in music and always prioritizes the quality of music and what is more important than music, namely the meaning it wants. they convey to the public.
If BTS only thought about materials/money then they wouldn't spend millions of dollars just for 1 music video, they wouldn't go to such great lengths to prepare props and stage sets at concerts, hold free concerts for their fans, and even donate on behalf of their fans.
From there we realized that as ARMY we never make the wrong choice and support idols.
Yeah, that's Our BTS.....
Thank you for great reaction💜
Well said 😊😊
true i saw the trailer for BTS new doco serie on disney+ and they laterally said that BTS was able to reach people all over the world with their sincerity, and that alone should be their legacy. others may have good music here and there but true legends move people. they make them make a difference MJ did that and BTS did that. idk if others did that too but i am sure there are others.
@@lealarsen2017 so very true 👍👍
Just note that people might get mistaken when she says “armys will buy every album, BTS depends on armys” it might sounds like BTS is using Armys enthusiasm for money, but regardless that Armys are willingly doing that, BTS always pays back to armys. They have held not multiple but a lot of FREE events for armys that cost millions dollars.
They have held FESTA 2023 for armys which basically like a festival that gather around 400k people on the venue to celebrate BTS 10th anniversary and it was not just a basic funfair festivals you can look it up, and their legendary Yet To Come Busan FREE CONCERT that have 55,000 attendees.
Not to mention how they have rent a venue just for armys who are queuing to take shelter during a super hot weather, they also keep giving super expensive gift for FREE to armys who came supporting them to watch the music shows they’re performing and many more.
AND also, those physical album that are mass bought by army are not thrown away, they gave away the albums to armys who can’t afford to buy themselves. 💜💜
That’s sweet of them to do that 💜💜
Which is why I want to go to a concert, so much freebies, meeting all kinds of Armys and watching Bangtan do their thing. Unfortunately, I live on Guam.
@@JesusOurLordandSavior 🔥🔥🔥
Another frustrating thing is when people are questioning me like why do you care about this? you are not even related to the artist and you are not even an artist but I think its really important to know and care about this kind of things because it doesn't happened only to music industry. Corruption is a very dangerous issue if we keep closing our eyes . Innocent people can be put down and wrongly accused when corruption in power. Just look at politics. When all evil people is at the top, it will be harder to stop them.
100% agree with you
Gut gesägt 👍
I literally became your fan today 😂😂😂..how perfectly you explained the difference between others and The BTS ....I love it😂😂❤❤
Awe thank you 😊
We appreciate your support 💜💜
yeah
UA-cam music does that too. That is why I turned off my mobile data when listening to music. I download the songs I want to listen and listen to them offline. When I used to listen to music with internet, Blackpink songs suddenly played in a BTS playlist made by UA-cam... always. I don't hate them. I just want to listen to all BTS songs if I click on BTS playlist. But suddenly, another song was played.
Totally understand 👍
That is really so annoying 😑
The principle that we built between BTS and Army are takes and gives.
and we strive for everyone or content that supports BTS to support it too. That is a form of our responsibility and loyalty as fans. Don't worry because when you find BTS, Army will find you.
That's what differentiates army from other fandoms (loyalty and enthusiasm)💜
So true
Bts tickets prices have been: nosebleed seats $60, middle seat tickets $120-$175, floor tickets $250 and soundcheck vip tickets $450. The prices are about the same in every country. The problem is that Bts tickets are sold out in under 30minutes. Everything you see in sale after that are resale tickets from people that got tickets and are trying to benefit by selling them at over price. Army has ticket resale sites where real armys sell tickets to other armys for the value price and not scam or cheat. I bought myself tickets to Agust d concert from facebook army ticket sales site and paid $450 for vip soundcheck ticket, when in ticketmaster scammer resale prices were $5000- $10000.
That’s crazy
@@TripTipsPodcast Well, Ticketmaster is a known scam, they have a monopoly and no regulation, so they do what the heck they want. They get a kickback- I forget what percent- of every re-listed ticket, so they're basically hand in glove with the scalpers.
@@kshafer6220 that’s messed up
Can you say what sites you were using ?
@@TripTipsPodcast Hi! Im trying to answer to a question here that was made for me, but youtube keeps deleting my answer. Can you check your youtube studio if my comments are there in the to be reviewed section?
A little correction. Ice spice blew up with Pink pantheress on Boy’s a Liar. The karma remix Taylor had with Ice spice actually flopped commercially even though it had radioplay. And even with how much swifties claimed to dislike the remix, it got a Grammy nomination, just like how boracity explained
If the commercial route fails, they opt for the Grammy route. Such a classic industry move😂
Lmao
Concert ticket presale for those with paid ARMY membership is actually not insanely expensive. But once tickets sales hit the general public (assuming there’s any ticket left at all) or once you are left with ticket resale and third party sellers, that’s when prices really skyrocket. So the best time is to catch the presale directly from the source; easier said than done, of course.
Thanks for the info
You guys don't have any idea of the amount of sabotages BTS' members have received lately. It's crazy and SO unfair.
Billboard keep changing the rules every time they get a hit and they are the only ones that end up falling from the charts while the others stays the same. BTS barely gets radio points and the other artists under American labels get millions because of payola...
How is that the general public being basically forced to listen to certain songs due to the industry's tactics is more organic that fans listening their favorite artists whenever they want? How is that the majority of these artists that get #1 all the time can't really do stadium tours like Bangtan or even sold out arenas?
I'm sorry but the fact radio airplay now weight more than real people streaming and buying songs makes no sense to me.
AND we are basically getting robbed because wdym 90% of Jimin's the sales were deleted? This is real people's money, efforts to support.
And the saddest and most frustrating thing is that armys always try to show to the world this issue but we get zero response. The general public ignore us because it's BTS and ignoring because they are of racist and xenophobic too. Why BTS gets all that unprovoked hate? Like bro all the sht the industry is doing is so wrong and that can affects small artists as well.. If things like this would happen to an American artist or a white artist, people would react differently and unite to complain too (it have happened before with 5sos), but because it's about BTS, an Asian group, people chooses to ignore all the corruption. That's disgusting.
No matter how much they change their rules and try to drag them down, we will not allow that and after all, Bangtan doesn't need their help to increase streams. They are the ones that can really sold out stadiums in minutes globally. Like I said, BTS and Army only have each other and we both have gone though so many hardship but always find the way to keep going. We will adapt and find the way to keep BTS at the top and make them succeed as always because they deserve it.
We shouldn't think much about this but it is really frustrating and the best thing we can do is not ignore this issue, that would be like helping them to destroy Bangtan.
I'm not saying that a number or getting certain awards will define how good they are because this is a corrupt industry, but giving them this things are a way of showing our support and reciprocate our love to them because BTS have already gave us so much happiness, strength and comfort with their music, messages, content and more. 💜
(Sorry for the long comment)
Agree 100% 👍👍
the gra**y and bi**board behaviour actually isn't just simply shitty and xenophobic. it's a tactic of extortion: exhaust the independent artist by blocking it from free success until they give into the system
So messed up
Army's care and we work hard for them. Others ask us not to vote so their idols have a chance which iss sad for their idols. I stan BTS and only BTS. Borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜✊🏼
😊💜😊💜
Oh, and when BTS announced their military service, fandoms were like, "Finally, someone else can win awards!" Dude. Do you not realize that you just admitted your faves need the competition removed entirely before they can measure up?
I do feel very bad for other idols when I see the results of voting, though. It's always BTS vs a selected BTS-beater- sometimes SKZ, sometimes Ateez, sometimes GOT7...Shinee- and it depresses me to scroll down the list of nominees and see, BTS 37%, BTS-beater, 35%, 3rd place group 4%, 4th and under, less than 2%. It must be so miserable for the idols if they look at the numbers and have to say, 'Gee, I guess all our...fans... are voting for #2 instead of us, because #2 beating BTS is more important than supporting us....'
That's another of the major differences between ARMY and everyone else: we vote for our guys if they're first, second, seventh, or fiftieth. You don't catch us throwing our votes to, say, SKZ, in the hopes that they'll get the award and BP won't.
@@kshafer6220 🤷
Taylor is big but I thing only in USA. Her influence outside of USA is not the same as Bts. A lot of USA singers are well promoted around the world but they do not have the same power.
Very true
It’s just so sad that we can see in our own eyes how corrupt the industry is and the only one who got supported is the one who have a money, that’s really sad because of the unfair presentation. Just like bts said ARMYS are the one who can they lean on and fight to music industry for it’s unfair presentation!
So true
@@TripTipsPodcast Actually I used to not believe it, not till I watched it with my own eyes how BTS views in UA-cam "magically" disappears. I've literally seen it myself, and it wasn't just hundred thousands of view but MILLIONS!!!
Once I saw that, I was so frustrated. The numbers were turning red which means the views were rapidly decreasing, and I thought all Kpop groups views must be like this so I watched Jisoo's "Flower" views but her views was fine, so I watched Twice "Set Me Free" views, theirs were fine too.
So I checked Jimin's "Like Crazy" but it was all red. So I watched the line charts of Newly released Kpop songs views and compared them.
It's only Jimin that has such a weird line chart, cause it looks like a ladder going downwards, but other Kpop groups are still straight line and only going upwards.
Besides UA-cam deleting his views and Spotify filtering more than half of his streams and Billboard deleting 90% of his songs sales.
TikTok is also sabotaging him too. Only recently I've seen Jimin's dance challenge with Taemin and the views were 44M. But the next day it went from 44 million views to 22M. I even have screenshots of it as proof. However the views of other Kpop idols like Taemin were unaffected. It's only the vid were Jimin appears that has the views mysteriously gets deleted.
Also another fun fact that you can search in Google. The word "Jimin" can no longer trend on TWITTER, cause Twitter deleted it or should I say deliberately change it to a regular word or phrase that people use everyday like "good morning" "hello", etc. So that it would no longer appear on trending page. Basically even if millions of people hashtags "Jimin" on Twitter, it won't trend at all.
Anyways, it's no longer about whether you believe there's corruption in the music industry or not, but the facts were right there. Even if it's not obvious it's still very suspicious. Like how can JK's views in 10 days the same number as Stray Kids views in just 3 days??
It just doesn't add up, sure StrayKids is popular in Kpop sphere but if you ask any random person on the street who StrayKids are, they certainly wouldn't know. But they certainly would have heard of BTS.
I've tested it, I've ask my classmates who doesn't know anything about Kpop if they've heard of StrayKids, NCT, TXT, ATEEZ, ENHYPHEN, New Jeans, IVE, etc.
They of course haven't heard of them, but they've unsurprising heard of BTS and BP and little bit of EXO.
So the views just doesn't makes sense.
Besides I've seen lots of Kpop groups like StrayKids, Black Pink, XG, and even the new debuted group Baby Monster have tons of Music Video sponsored ads in UA-cam but I have never seen a BTS ad before.
And you already know, those ads count as views even if you skipped it.

I really liked this reaction, the collective work of the Army is to review the numbers on the public lists, with that we can get an idea and stream at the right time in the right way to avoid being kicked. It also happens with purchases, we are a team that is not only obsessed with numbers, we also appreciate art and that is why it motivates us to give our best, bc we receive the best in quality from BTS.
27:24 here you talk about Girl Groups I recommend you Mamamoo 😉 They have a similar history to Bangtan, only due to poor promotion they are not very famous. They also have quality solo careers 👍The sad thing is that there is not enough translated material from them, but I recommend them to have them on your playlist.
Thanks for the recommendation 😊👍😊👍
Mamamoo is actually the only gg I listen to on a regular basis.
I wholeheartedly 2nd Mamamoo! Not only do they have deep, meaningful songs, as a group & individually (as well as fun, catchy ones) but they're also seriously talented vocalists & entertainers that get to show it off in their diverse discography. There is no copy & paste when it comes to their music.
@@christinafreeburn1888 👍👍
that´s true. i only listened to a few songs but their lyric was deferent from other kpop groups. they also have more mature fans as far as i have seen.
Yes, UA-cam did that only to BTS.. we saw the numbers gained from our streaming then they deleted our views by millions, every single time…agree with you about the girl groups.. lol.. BTS’s concerts sold out so fast for example Wembley stadium or MetLife hold 85-90 thousand people and it sold out lest than 2 hours and those is for fans only before the general public can buy..getting their tickets is the hunger game for us..
That’s incredible 😊😊
T Swift's collab with ice spice wasnt as random. The guy Taylor was dating at the time got exposed for saying racist stuff towards ice spice during a podcast and fans started urging Taylor to break up with him but the very next day she announced a collab with ice spice instead. It was a pr stunt
Got it thanks 😊
That's tell me all I need to know about the Swift woman, the person she was 'dating' and Ice Spice. They clearly are all cut from the same cloth. Glad I never liked the woman's music. As my grandmother would say 'I wouldn't give it house room'.
@@eileencritchley4630 👍👍
Well, that just reduced my respect for her dramatically. You do NOT use racism as a promoting ploy. And if you're an artist, have some self-respect; don't let anyone make you the butt of racist remarks just to get fan attention. Shame on them all.

With the ticket prices, the really expensive tickets are from resellers. BTS tickets are not too bad considering the expenses of getting their props & stage etc over to other countries. Plus they have to make multiple of them so that if they do a concert in the US & then go to Brazil, they already have everything in both countries. Nothing would be worst than all your stage, props etc being delayed in customs or go missing in transit. ARMY have a strict policy of not buying from resellers unless it’s a day of or a day or two before & we won’t let the resellers make a huge profit, so if they don’t drop the ridiculous price (one concert the reseller want U$40,000) then we won’t buy. The ticketing companies (although they are own by the one company) allows this practice because they get a cut of both the original sale & the resell. BTS last concert in US, no one but BTS fans were allowed to buy tickets in pre-sale, the tickets sold out before they were due to go on sale for the general public & there were no ridiculous resale prices in tickets. The only tickets I remember seeing up for resale were when the buyer had been trying for all four days just hoping to be able to tickets for one or a family emergency happened & they could no longer go, (ticket purchasing by ARMY is cut throat, we sometimes call it the Hunger Games), but got multiple days. They were reselling at ticket face value, no profit.
That’s insane
@@TripTipsPodcast some ARMY that can afford it will sometimes buy en extra ticket & give it away for free to someone who has arrived at the stadium but doesn’t have a ticket, they just wanted to hear the guys live even if they can not see them. ARMY will make gifts that they pass around to other ARMY before the concerts.
@@tracybrunner863 that’s really nice
i want you guys to know that one of the key reasons as to why bts succeeded globally was because army, their fandom, wasi/is filled with people like boracity. at the end of the video you said how impressed you are that boracity knows so much about the industry and i instantly had to come to comment this - most armys learned all this from research and experience since 2017. the ways the charts and the industry work? we all studied that shit. back in 2016 we fans studied the chart rules EXCESSIVELY. and the main reason for this was bc we knew that bts had no one else on their side but us. we knew that it was we fans who could make things happen for them and become their shield on the way to the top. so we used to have a bunch of fanbases with the sole purpose of 1) educating every army on VALID chart rules (aka how to buy or stream in ways to make it count for charts) 1) testing out new methods of how to optimize of our efforts the most. we would have teams do testings on how to stream, what makes a stream filtered. how to buy? how many times you can buy and in what ways to make it count? back in the day we even had fanbases for us states radios just for requests. armys were mad researchers and we climbed higher and higher on the charts each time bc after each success we sat down to study what worked and what we could do even better next time. and also we were all here for all the times where we did everything correctly and yet the industry made shady moves against bts and us. and that's why how we came to these realizations about how the industry is interconnected and how it works. one of the major reasons as to why the western industry despises the bts army is because how INFORMED and smart we are. you won't find any other fandom to any other artists who know more about chart rules and such than bts army. and we are a MASS. this knowledge is on a massive platform's scale. and every time we make bts succeed purely based on their own talent and our efforts of supporting them, the industry not only doesn't profit off of it but we as fans also successfully end up illuminating the industry's actual shady business and sabotages. so they hate bts and their fans because the more we succeed it became harder and harder to sabotage us without also shedding a massive light on their own corruption.
The problem with GG is that they start really strong with great music but the moment they receive success, the labels kinda stop investing their time on their concept or songs and focus more on objectifying them. Many who have left the label end up making amazing songs. Try New Jeans Ditto, OMG, closer etc and Le Sserafim's impurities, antifragile, sour grapes etc. Or Mamamoo Hwasa's Maria and illela or I miss you or egotistic.

The author of Boracity, as always, did a wonderful job. Without any scruples, she exposed the dirty tricks of the music industry not only in the US but also in Korea...
I'm not surprised that K-pop itself doesn't arouse your enthusiasm. I recommend seeing another essay "Is the hybe family a think?" on Boracity discussing the so-called k-pop families associated with music labels. This material clearly shows the weakness of this industry, which lies in its ossified framework and an anachronistic system that does not motivate idols to develop themselves. This year's MAMA and Melon Awards 2023 galas without big names on stage (read BTS) mercilessly exposed the weakness of K-pop and its smallness outside Asia.
Moreover, this year's awarding of awards at both events raises many doubts. Jimin (the first Korean ever to chart at No. 1 on the Billboard 100), who was inundated with nominations, received only one award. V, who delighted in his refined vocal virtuosity in the Layover project and absolutely stood out from other projects (probably addressed only to "forest grandparents" 70+), was not honored with any award. Another example. It's unbelievable how it was possible to nominate the least hip-hop song Suga (performed with IU) for an award this year (in the Rap&Hip-hop category) and ignore Haegum. This is absolutely the most powerful song from D-day, exposing the confusion and helplessness of the modern world in the face of a flood of contradictory and unverifiable media information, societies incited to sick competitiveness based on the worst of instincts: envy. Apparently, for Korea (or rather the K-pop industry), the size of BTS and their solo projects are a problem. And perhaps that is why their achievements and importance in their own country are constantly downplayed...
Greetings from Europe🤗💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I was just watching a video the other night about how low MAMA viewing was without BTS there. And yes, the awarding was a sick joke. I'm saying to myself that MAMA (I haven't looked into the MMAs yet) is doing their best to emulate the grammys, which is about as potent an insult as I can throw, in music-award terms.
They always get down played. Feel bad for them💜💜💜

@@TripTipsPodcast 36:38 You're right
Maybe BTS and Taylor Swift Fans are close in numbers. But that's not accurate at all.
First of all. BTS is clearly in DISADVANTAGE.
Forget about the suppression of both West and Kpop Industry, people don't even bother to give them a chance because they already have negative pre-concieve notion of Kpop so they automatically view BTS in negative light without even actually listening to any of their music.
Secondly people in the West usually look down on "boy bands", not to mention a "POP" band like BTS.
Thirdly, even people in South Korea don't listen to BTS, why? Because they are labeled as Kpop or kpop idols. Majority of people in South Korea don't treat "idol music" seriously cause it's just nothing more than noisy but glamorous music designed for young kids.
Fourthly, BTS are Asians so they constantly face extreme racism and xenophobia.
Fifth, BTS are constantly being looked down upon and being ridiculed by most men around the world because they aren't "masculine" enough.
6th, BTS also faces LANGUAGE BARRIER, cause obviously they aren't English and 97% of their songs aren't in English.
And as you may know it's obviously a lot easier for any English artist to be popular globally but this does not apply to BTS.
7th, most ppl automatically thinks BTS are for kids or for teenage girls, so most males and older people don't bother to try them out.
8th, besides discrimination out of ignorance, BTS also constantly faces fierce competition in the Kpop Industry, cause the Kpop Industry can't wait to replace them. So they sneakily also sabotage them.
Besides it's no secret that most Kpop fans hates BTS so usually they would unite and vote other groups that would compete against BTS in hopes of defeating them.
Taylor Swift on the other hand doesn't have these obstacles, she doesn't get sabotaged or gets suppressed by the Music Industry either. Also she's American so she kinda have no problem winning any Grammy's.
And she has no fierce competition in the Industry either cause it's not like there's artist out there who can replace her in any given moment and she had been in the Industry for a very very long time.
So she also has lots of World Tours, etc. BTS on the other hand, barely has any.
They only have at most 3 or 4 throughout their career and their last world tour was like 5-6 years ago. And besides Taylor Swift doesn't need to enlist in the military, so she doesn't have "hiatus" or need to take a break for like 2 years.
BTS on the other hand doesn't have that luxury.
Lastly, BTS doesn't came from a huge label or company so their company have no power and influence to promote them.
They also have no industry support unlike bands one direction, Black Pink, EXO, and other bands from Big 3.
So technically comparing the quantity of Taylor Swift fans, and any other bands or any other artist around the world to BTS fans is not fair at all.
Cause BTS fans is already one of the biggest if not THE BIGGEST fandom around the world. Hardly ANYONE can match that number except probably Taylor Swift who doesn't have disadvantages.
So do you know how crazy that is??
The fact that insane number is merely the result of BTS being heavily on DISADVANTAGE.
Other artists would even cheat their way to appear even way bigger than they actually are yet BTS is still far bigger than most of them despite the unfair chains that binds them.
So if we take off all of their disadvantage one by one, can you even begin to imagine how big BTS actually is?!?
@@rafaelsmith5737 wow thanks for taking the time to share these stats and information with us.
I love it that you know the truth, "no one gives a s***" when you reacted to other artists. Clear, straight forward evidence.
Thank you for noticing and for your support 😊💜😊💜
Taylor Swift or her company pays for her to be at number 1, however TS is a great artist but still no matter how good you are as an artist, you have to have the industry support and your company to pay for radio, streams (curated playlisting)and allow album sales that come from merchandise, that is how TS can break records. I love TS but I know she pays to be where she is at, at least at the beginning of her career
👍👍
i am not saying TS is a bad artist but she wouldn't be in her position and with the number of awards she has speaking other language and with no american company after her
Taylor has mad payola... Her radio is double, triple than her actual streams
Whoa you guys are the first reactors I’ve seen who actually have a good understanding of the industry. Before I became an army I knew nothing about the industry. I was shocked to find out radio is a total scam. Great reaction, I don’t often watch reactors anymore but i enjoyed your commentary.
Hey thanks for the kind words. We appreciate your support 👍👍
Radio wasn't always a scam, of course. It has been around for over a century, invented in the 1890s, & was the main media even after film & television were starting to slooowly take over starting in the 1920s. It only started becoming scammy, or scam-ish, once it was losing prevalence & relevancy, especially for these past couple decades, because it is an industry that is trying to desperately survive in the age of the computer & Internet. I would say the radio stations that are at least the good ones are those that rely on listener donations & usually does a pledge drive at least once a year. I listen to one western Classical station that does that. I listen to much much less radio nowadays if computer & television are not available, compared to the amount of radio in the 1970s & 1980s as a kid. The only time now that makes sense for radio listening is when driving in a car & that applies to practically everyone around the world. Radio should not really count anymore when it comes to music charting, or at least it can count, but at a smaller percentage than what charts use it for. I still have a few old radios I have kept, like old hand-held transistor radios & also have an AM radio kit I put together as a kid since I am an electronics person. I would love to see BTS brand-market a small cheap but quality transistor radio, that would be a combination radio & MP3 player & sold as merch at their concerts. They just have to do it in a way that it won't (or less) create fake reproductions by other people/scammers.
For me BTS is my family.. back in 2014 until now they remained my second family .. not everyone can understand but i love them unconditionally . I will fight for them without them telling me to. All the hardwork they did all the struggle, they said ARMY IS IN FRONT OF THEM PULLING THEM UP..
😊👍😊👍
Those fans who said EXO is bigger than BTS is false but I’ll say EXO was big but once BTS came into the scene EXO fell far back and was getting passed by newer groups.
Thanks for sharing this
Thanks for this. I'm new to you but have been a BTS fan for 3 years. In even quite a bit older than you, but live they're music and their associated empire of shows. The solo efforts of the bots have been so fine and so varied, it's a crime they're treated so. They know they won't get awards except fan awards usually, if they're invited to appear, they're there for eye candy and ratings. A V live with --was it Jungkook? -- got more people watching than the Grammys when they weren't there in 2023. They made the ratings for Grammy when they performed Butter in 2022.
Agree 100% 😊👍😊👍
Many still feel like BTS stole the global fame that their fave groups were entitled to as those groups came from better companies with better resources, better professionals to help them and better connections. Many EXO stans still feel slighted by BTS's success and try to push the narrative that they're not that big or successful and it's really EXO who has worldwide fame. They're still living in the past, trapped in another era about 8 years ago when that group was genuinely on top by kpop standards at that time.
I suspect that it hurts their pride to accept that BTS got this massive after they made fun of them for being poor, cringy, ugly, untalented, nugus (meaning nobodies or literally 'who' in English). They were taught that only Big 3 companies could produce the biggest acts so they still can't wrap their minds around this change that broke the kpop wheel. Some even trying to rename Big 3 to the Big 4 to include HYBE so that it can make more sense to them how a nobody company could grow big enough to buy up the others if it wanted to. It's more insulting to them as that growth was all on the backs of the group they bullied and tried to get disbanded. It's sad because it didn't need to be like that.
You'd think they would have gotten over it and grown by now, but they're still forcing this weird competition that they lost years ago. They would rather fight ARMY online than focus on buying, streaming and voting for their group because they're still stuck in the mindset that the group is so big and special that they can do well on their own without majoy fan support. Then they cry online when BTS wins everything and they have to listen to thank you speeches where BTS praise ARMY. They could be working hard to get their group back on top but they rather stalk BTS livestreams and posts so they can make fun of them online. It would be infuriating if it wasn't so sad.
So very true
I remember the anxiety and depression they gave to the OT7 during the WINGS ERA 🥺🥺
@@bellamiatirasol3689 must have been crazy
what you said about the lyrics in girl groups is true. that´s why girl groups are mainly big on youtube or tik tok because men only like to stare at them dance. and music from tik tok is all about the catchy beat not lyrical substance. so BTS is the only kpop group who is popular among all generations and not just the youth.
and that is because of the lyrics and positive messages. now a days a bad story sell more than the good. but then comes BTS who as a bright positive message of change and people is hungry for it.
it was what happened to me. i had listened to a few kpop songs before BTS but non of them spoke to me it was just overly visual based music and the lyrics don´t matter.
so it´s really great to se BTS being at the front showing how music should be like. it reminds me of music like MJ with amazing msg and also many of the classic songs.
Very well said
I actually caught 50,000 views deleted from JK's Calvin Klein ad. 2hrs later (yes, I went back to watch again , what girl wouldn't 😁)The views were 50,000 less. I had heard of this but never seen it with my own eyes......On an advertisement YT did this🤨
Messed up
I think they know bc it can’t be coincidence. Like jungkook announces a digital single. Within one day billboard announces they won’t count digital,singles anymore. By itself not suspicious. But after every release there is a random change. It adds up
So annoying. always moving the goal post
Taylor Swift has a giant fandom, too. She is one of the few artists who has sold out stadium tours.
BTS can sell their tickets for higher prices, but they have always tried to keep their ticket prices reasonable for fans. Their canceled MOTS7 tour (due to the pandemic) tickets prices were kept the same price for their Permission to Dance concerts, which were held after the pandemic, even though they were a lot more popular and had gained more fans at the time. Also, BTS (group) has not used Dynamic Pricing for tickets, like many of the Western artists do. Taylor had dynamic pricing for the tickets for her most recent tour. Dynamic pricing is when ticket prices are determined by supply and demand... less tickets equals higher prices.
Makes sense.
When I started this channel we only did Taylor swift reactions then the swifties told us about BTS and here we are

Something id like to mention about how you said a lot kpop girls and kpop boys have superficial af songs, thats general the title track. Songs with repeatability, that are ear worms, and super catchy are the title tracks, they tend to be easier to listen to with superficial meaning bcs thats what, sadly, gets the general public's attention. Most groups have way deeper b-side tracks, because unlike BTS, they cannot afford a complex song as a title track, there's also the fact most groups dont have the level of autonomy that BTS does, BTS havent just been writing their music since the start, but now hold stocks in their company. No group in kpop or even a lot of western artists have this level of autonomy.
Another thing Id like to add, men do not need talent to make it big either, there are many mediocre men with zero personality who are hella famous, and male artists DO sell sex. It seems more evident with women because our whole bodies are way more sexualized than men's, but men do sell sex, whether its the attitude, the face, the body, the very sexual or explicit songs. Men sell sex just as much and often times use the sexualization of women to do it. At least women sell sex by sexualizing themselves. 😂 Also you're mad that they sell sex but that's what the public consumes so that's what artists cater... so, who's at fault?
Either way, i mainly listen to foreign songs or indie artists because while i do enjoy a sexy song, the hyper sexualization is not something i enjoy all the time.
About the jewish people being at the top, its less jewish people, and more Zionist groups that are at the top, but people dont like talking about that, or people would be way more concerned about whats going on right now on the other side of the world.
In general, you made very good points, but i just wanted to clarify this.
Thanks for your clarification and valid points. We appreciate your comments and your support 😊👍😊👍
I went to a BTS concert wings tour tickets were 75-250 its the scalpers that put those prices
Oh ok. That makes sense
@DANDJREACT advice. Log into the ticket website and confirm payments and pw then stand in virtual line for 2 hrs before they go on sale. I got tickets to their BBMA and other sold out tickets for festivals that way. If it's too early you'll get pushed back and then can't get anything. A minute to late and it'll be sold out. Then marked up to 4-10gs

In addition to bundling, TS also has a history of releasing multiple album versions. 3 easy examples: Folklore (18), Midnight (20+), 1989 (18) etc. Too tired & disillusioned to look-up ALL the limited, exclusive or bundled + variant versions/packages available for them OR for rest of her many other albums…..... I find this truly disheartening since it now forces me to re-examine her artistic integrity & re-visualize some of her formerly “courageous” actions as calculated risks instead. And re the Ice Spice racism/xenophobia ugliness:- Not just media critics but even her own fandom actually called her (& ex-bf) out on the entire fiasco & disingenuous PR damage-control cleanup. With her undeniably tremendous talents, TS is actually 1 of few artists powerful (& privileged) enough to NOT have to engage in mercenary tactics & yet still be able to succeed in the industry. So her questionable choices really hurt those who respect(ed) her, her music and/or even consider her as a role model.

Maybe the best reaction that I have watched. I agree with your assessment of girl groups. Playboy bunnies. I am 70 so I've been exposed to a lot of music & genres. BTS is unmatched.

Taylor swift is name the queen of pop. But BTS just became the fastest group in the music industry to have 8 no.1 songs on billboards hot 100. Taylor Swift is second artist to have 6 no.1 songs on hot 100, after BTS. BTS are the Kings of Pop. BTS has over 300 billion streams on Spotify beating every music artists in the world. They are truly remarkable Artists. This is why the music industry is so scared and terrified of BTS.

Just want to leave it here: the words like BTS and Jimin is censored on Twitter, for the reason that these words(names)is always trending. So ARMYs on twt uses another word likr "BTS BTS BTS" and "JIMIM" instead.
So it's not impossible if reaction channels like yours gets affected by these algorithms if you put BTS or ARMY keywords.
ARMYs will always support BTS. And our fandom is known for being organized and strategic. We can thwart political propagandas and trend something if we really desire to. ARMYs have seen many reaction channels and we know how our support will help these channels grow, and we are proven how some of these clout chasing channels are not genuine. We spread the word and actively "blacklist" some of those of channels 😂.
But it seems to me you are genuine. Thank you for always supporting BTS and for being understanding of ARMYs protectiveness. IF you continue to support BTS, ARMYs will always have your support in return!

Literally made their company wht they r today cuz of their hardwork !!! They are on hiatus rn as well as members are releasing their personal albums but they haven’t disbanded…. They are amazing n only gg which i can listen to other than bts… girls are super talented but underrated i would recommend to check them out ! Check killer voice mamamoo so in a video u can see their vocals n different genres of songs… they can do typical kpop song and ballads, jazz , pop literally everything… n their music is self produced n lyrics have meaning!!!!!
Awesome thanks for the suggestion 😊👍😊👍
Plus they are fans of BTS too... Just play Blood Sweat and Tears in front of Solar 😂😂😂
You can't blame artists for having to play the game here in order to make their dreams come true, but I will blame the industry for taking advantage of people . I am very happy BTS never had to play along to make it.I wish there was a way for fair play to be the norm, and only talent mattered, but greed always seems to be what rules. I am not a swifty, I am Army and I only stan BTS, but I will say I like her message to her fans. She has put herself in the sights of the far right because of it. And I am not Jewish. But I really wish you would not single out Jews as the problem with the music industry. I think keeping politcs out of your reactions would be a more enjoyable experience for me. The news of the world is heartbreaking, I watch reaction to enjoy other people find out why BTS is so special. Good reaction ,for the most part. See you soon.💜
Thanks for your support 😊💜😊💜
jimin was sabotage in the american music but after he was hired to be the global ambassador of dior their shares of stocks had the biggest increase in their history, not only dior, he`s the ambassador of tiffany and all the members are ambassadors of luxury brands, they could have hired anyone but they choose bts because they sell everything , not just smoke
So true
Love your reaction guys 💜 please Watch more of her videos

@@NumberoneOt7 you do the same 💜💜💜
But even if it was the same people going to different concert they still pay for tickets. But considering they sell out arenas in different countries so im sure its not always the same people. And what I’ve seen taylor swift fans and Armys Usually don’t get along. Taylor swift fans like to say she’s much better and has more fans and us armys say the same.
Can’t make everyone happy
Love you reaction and thoughts as usual..thank you 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thanks for your support 😊❤️😊❤️
I know you guys have so much respect for BTS but kindly refrain from bringing other groups down, it’s very uncalled for. When you said TXT, NCT and EXO brings in ‘trash’ reaction video views it’s unnecessary (these groups literally does millions of sales and views). Yes they are not as big as BTS, but these groups are arguably in the top 10 biggest groups in the world right now. Also for someone reviewing a video that literally talked about algorithm you failed to put that on your own understanding of your channel, ever thought that your reaction to other groups are just not well recommended? I have seen other reaction channels who do better in views reacting to EXO, NCT etc. compared to the BTS videos they put out. Also for context EXO, first kpop to chart on the Canadian Billboard, EXO has won over Justin Bieber and One Direction (during these two massive artists pop peak) in voting for the 2013 MTV Europe Music Awards, they have also performed in the closing ceremony of the 2018 Winter Olympics, and many more. Just because they are not the biggest does not mean they bring in ‘trash’ views just shows you that majority of your subscribers comes from one specific fandom and that’s of BTS.
Some of the things on the video you were reacting to are very one sided, the video literally said that Jisoo’s Flower MV from Blackpink is not worthy to be the most viewed MV of 2023 is stupid, even claimed that only BTS gets views deleted till this day when this is also very relevant to the video being dissed as well. Blackpink’s UA-cam account has the most subscribers amongst ANY music artists on the planet, she alone is the 3rd most followed kpop artist on Instagram just behind two more Blackpink members, she has more than enough power to go head to head with BTS in views, the two most viewed kpop group MV are Blackpink’s Ddu-Du Ddu-du and Kill This Love with 2.2 billion and 1.9 billion views respectively. Also Blackpink has topped the most viewed kpop MV each year more than BTS. I don’t like comparing but since you do, I am just sharing facts. Jennie of Blackpink also holds the most viewed solo idol song ironically called Solo with 1 billion views (obviously if we are not counting Psy as an idol). Out of 2021 releases, Lisa’s Money of Blackpink (979 million) has more views than Butter of BTS (951 million) and that’s a solo song vs a group song. Which Lisa’s song was released 4 months after Butter.
Lastly we are thankful you do these reactions but kindly do it with respect, don’t let your bias bring other groups down.
Thanks for watching and for your support 😊👍😊👍
@@TripTipsPodcast I have a feeling that you didn’t read what I said but that’s okay most people don’t like being informed of something they did wrong or negatively but either way thank you for making reaction videos. My main message is just don’t name drop other artists when it is followed by a negative comment.

We had no idea we said anything to offend you personally. We just give our honest views and opinions. Not everyone is going to like or agree with us on every band we react to. Just like you have specific bands you idolize and admire but dislike other bands we are the same.
Some we like and others we don’t. It’s a personal preference. I refuse to pretend and be fake on camera and act like we love every song and every band we react to. We will always give our honest reviews and reactions regardless if people don’t agree or like what we say.
We’ll always be honest and true to ourselves first.
@@TripTipsPodcast I never said anything about you offending me, and of course you are welcome to react to whoever you want, but based on how you replied to me just shows your true colours.
I never said anything about your freedom to like or dislike something, but calling something ‘trash’ that someone puts out is simply low class behaviour. Also informing you of facts DOES NOT MEAN I am telling you who to react to, just refraining you from talking badly of others just because you don’t vibe with certain groups.
Now thinking about it I don’t even think it has anything to do with vibing with a certain group because you mentioned on this video you stop doing reactions to those groups because they generate ‘trash’ view counts.
Not once did I mention anything about how you react or who to react to, I just said don’t talk NEGATIVELY of others.
I am a civil person, so I will unsubscribe, not that it will matter to you, so have a great day, continue making reaction videos and enjoy your upcoming trip to Asia.

Taylor is coming here November 2024 and it's over 4K for nosebleed seats, never mind floor seats. My sister is going and she paid 6200 for her ticket. I had a bad experience with Taylor's fanbase last month. On Twitter I was chatting with some friends and I mentioned that I didn't really know the name of any of her songs and within 5 minutes I was swarmed with hate comments and being told to k myself.
Wow that’s horrible. Sorry that happened to you.
I will suport bts always
Thanks 😊
Hope you had a Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
Thank you for your thoughts on girl kpop groups. I agree and am repeatedly dismayed by the numbers (male and female!) who go "Wow" and use other exclamations, as if the performance is outstanding. I just can't understand it - maybe it is a sex thing, but that's pretty ridiculous. I like sex, and even as a woman I like sexually beautiful performances by woman AND men, and yet I find them usually totally non-sexy, non-sensual. And Kpop women - nooooo. So I wonder if this is an Asian fetish thing. Fair play to these artists, they are verrrry restricted in what they can show/ how they are permitted to behave, so their sexualised movements are very stylised and doll or even child like. They are all beautiful, but I find them usually pretty anodyne - because I like intelligence in my sex, thank you very much.
BUT - I believe most of them are incredibly talented, skilled and hardworking, some are very intelligent too, but hardly any of the music displays that. I would love to see these women permitted much greater artistic freedom as well as see them write about their own life, challenges and thoughts. That is what makes BTS so great, and it is increasingly what other male groups are starting to do - but not enough, and not as well as BTS who - honestly - have 13 years experience already.
I looked it up - Swifties are thought to be about 16% of US populations - c54m. Official BTS fanclub members are probably about 50m, but frankly I, and most of my ARMY friends are not official ARMY members - I suspect that the number of total ARMY might be twice the official club.
Boracity's films are always insightful and often crucifying for western media. ARMY often know much of this already - at least at some level. I also think many ARMY's feel that western awards and opinion is irrelevant.
I'm a western woman, and I can't bring myself to care. When I look at what does appear on the charts, well, no, who cares. Mindless, repetitive, often racist, often consumerist, often hyper-sexualised, often misogynist rubbish. Rubbish is putting it very politely too.
Now, sometimes the actual artists are talented, and perhaps steered a certain way by their companies. Often the music conforms to a computer-analysed profile of what has succeeded. But it is bad music, and will not persist. The artists who will persist are those with something substantial to say and with their own style of presentation. Which is why "that country guy" went viral.
Thank you for your detailed response 😊👍😊👍
You said all that very well indeed- I think you helped me clarify why girl groups simply do not interest me at all.
Yes, and don't get me started on western music; you literally stated my thoughts about the repetition, the lack of creativity and visual imagery, the repetition, the simplified terminology, the repetition... yes, it is BORING. At best. At worst, it's garbage. And of course the double handshake between radio and billboard ensures that boring garbage is almost all we get- since they're actively pushing away anything better.
I don't listen to 'modern' music, but I have been a bit dismayed by BTS's shift towards western and their willingness to collab with western artists. Some of them, ok, it works- Coldplay, Megan, Halsey, Usher, Anderson Paak. But some of this... I feel like when you mix BTS and American music, the American is improved, but the BTS suffers by comparison. In the sense that Standing Next to You and 3D are better-than-average songs, even quite good, but do NOT rank with Begin and My Time.
@@kshafer6220 agreed
😂😂😂Thank you 🙏🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏 sweetie pie you we're on Fire 🔥🔥 That's how every reactors should react and Explain wow wow I am so so happy to here you speak that 👍🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you 😊💜😊💜
I think I live under a rock,I have never heard a single TS song and I didn't even know she existed until BTS once mentioned her,I haven't listened to music on the radio since 2014 and I don't consume music that is "mainstream" And since I am army and know more or less how billboard and other rankings work,I distance myself even further from everything that appears there,BTS and TXT are the only kpop groups that I follow because their music is different and not something monotonous, thanks for the video and speaking honestly even though other fandoms may dislike it,stay healthy and happy, borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
We try to keep it polite but as real as possible. Consistency is key💜💜
i laughed at the ice spice comment.
"she used to be popular with the spice girls."
Lmao
Your commentary is so satisfying. If we Armys ever say what you just said suddenly we are the bad guy 🥲
What part did we say that would get you in trouble. Glad you like it though 😊💜🙏
@@TripTipsPodcasteven 1% of what you said starting from 16:55 will get us into trouble while we’re just basically spitting facts 😅
