It's okay to show emotion, it's too bad people are socialized to feel embarrassed for something so human, especially men and some cultures more than others. The guys are role models not just for being great humans who are not entitled/ arrogant and respect and care/ love so much, but also to show men around the world it's okay to show feelings and be vulnerable and also to be expressive with other men :)
Right, absolutely, but also, they're Very close to eachother More than just PLATONIC friends/Brothership. They've "messed around" back in the days too. Not just touchy feely for Fun only. And I love it all.😊
@@queenisisboyce9444 you were not there so you shouldn't say and gossip about things that you don't know for sure. that potential has nothing to do with whether or not they present as good influences against male toxicity or not
Many ARMY start by saying "I just wanted to learn their names".....That when they capture us, when you learn their names you also learn how special they are 💜
Army knows when you pause, you're immersing into BTS will like it and show more and give you deeper info along with comments. 😂 Kudos for knowing them touched by thier craft and brings to life your dreams or other way fill you
I am a 48y mom of 3 in their early 20’s that are not K-pop fans and I am teased about my love of BTS. There is a saying that BTS finds you when you need them (us…ARMY community) the most. I found them in 2017 at a very dark time in my life and they have been my light and happiness. The ARMY community is beyond amazing the incredibly supportive and loving. Thank you taking the time to watch this and all your BTS reactions. 🤗💜🤗💜🤗
yes that's been forged in the battle for their group to survied with all the hatred they've received since even before the debut and continue's to this day. All nastie tricks the music industry throw's at them both in South Korea and the rest of the world. The death threats, the lies printed about them, etc etc.
@eileencritchley4630 I find it disturbing how people could be so malicious and heartless to attack them when they were just young boys excited to start their dreams. Like, wtf is going through these haters' minds when they decide to do this? These people weren't raised right.
I wish you well with your channel, you're the best kind of reactor, you're real and openly shared of your opinions/ perspectives which were cool to hear :) also you seem genuinely interested :)
@@Elmsauce what's great about the internet and social media is its easier to find some like minded people, maybe via Meet Up you can find other people with similar goals
Jimin is both a Comtemporary Dancer and a Hip Hop Dancer he's also a martial arts expert and often combines all 3 things together when he dances. He'll be the one doing flips and kicks in mid air.
EDM is Electronic Dance Music. Welcome to the world of BTS. They come into your life when you need them. I learned about them in 2020, but didn’t listen to their music until October 2021, the year my dad died and I was 100% working and 100% taking care of my ailing mother. I needed a break from all that and listening to these young men (I am an Silver ARMY of 51 years old) gave me some peace and strength to keep going even after my mother passed away in 2022. I will keep being an ARMY until it is my time to go. Even if they stop making music I will still stay a fan forever. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you for finding them. Among ARMY, there is a saying that BTS finds you when you need them the most in your life. :) They all have different personalities and different talents, and they seem to combine like cogwheels to create the best balance and synergy. :) I guess you already know, the reason why this introduction video is until 2022 is that BTS members have all gone into military service in accordance with South Korean law. After releasing a collaboration single with Coldplay, Jin, the oldest member, already enlisted about a year ago and is currently serving as an assistant in the Korean Army boot camp under Korean law. And J-Hope joined the military about 8 months ago after releasing his solo album Jack In The Box and collaborating with J.Cole. J-Hope is also serving as an assistant to the Korean Army boot camp in a different unit from Jin. Suga released his solo album, D-Day, and he recently sold out all of his world tours and ended successfully, and he joined the army, September 22. And V and RM joined the army on December 11, and Jimin and Jungkook joined the army together on December 12, just yesterday. RM released his solo album, INDIGO, last December, and another album will be released after joining the army. Jimin released his first solo album, Face, last March, and the title track of the album, Like Crazy, became the first Korean male solo artist to reach the Billboard Hot 100. V released his solo album, Layover, last September, and after joining the army, he is scheduled to collaborate with IU, a Korean female soloist. Jungkook, the youngest member, sang "Dremers" at the opening ceremony of last year's World Cup in Qatar, and his single "Seven" released last July became the second Korean male solo artist to top the Billboard Hot 100, and recently released his first solo album, GOLDEN. So they are briefly stopping their eight-year group works and focusing on their solo work. They promised their fan base, ARMY that each of them will grow further through solo projects and come back together in 2025 after completing their military service. Six months from now, on June 12 of the following year, Jin will return from the military, and J-Hope will also return to our side on October 17. Jin and J-Hope, who will be discharged first, will entertain ARMY until the other five members return in June 2025. :) Can I recommend some songs that I was comforted by them? I'd like to introduce the story of the iconic trilogy that led them to a speech to the United Nations General Assembly. DNA: Joy of fateful love → Fake Love: Realizing that love was a lie → IDOL, The Truth Untold, Epiphany, Answer Love Myself: To love other people completely, you should love yourself first. These are included in Love Yourself Trilogy. Oh, RM's speech at the UN cannot be missed. He was only 24 years old at the time! Dynamite, Butter, Permission to Dance, these three songs were released in English to give positive energy to people around the world during the pandemic caused by Covid-19. :) Most of their songs are in Korean, and their music video provides subtitles in several languages, including English. And I highly recommend the music video and live performance of Spring Day, Mic Drop. These two songs are totally different from each other, and you can feel the diversity of their music. The lyrics of BTS' songs are based on their own experiences, and their albums are organic because they contain their growth narrative. It'll also be fun to listen to their albums in order and analyze them. :) If you're curious about their personalities, I recommend their variety show, Run BTS. (There is also their song, live performance, and dance practice with the same title as this.) There is a considerable gap between them on stage and usual. They are actually very cute and funny. 🤣 Oh, I recommend Suchwita(meaning time to get drunk with Suga), too. Suchwita is a talk show created by Suga to promote the members' solo albums. Now, it's much larger than his initial intention, so he invited a variety of guests other than the members, though. 🤣 Episodes in which the members appeared are ep.1, 7, 9, 12, 14, 15, 18 and 21. :) You can hear the behind-the-scenes stories of the members' solo work in these videos. He is currently serving in the military, and profitable activities during military service are prohibited under Korean law, so episodes he filmed in advance before joining the military are now being released every few weeks. And I highly recommend BTS HARDSHIPS 2013-2021 by xCeleste. This video shows why BTS and ARMY have a strong bond and why ARMY is so protective of BTS. Sorry for this long comment. But I hope you enjoy this journey. :)
I guess you didn't read the whole line about RM's titles. All you saw was leader. He's also the main rapper, main songwriter, and a producer. You keep saying that Suga in the main rapper. He is not. The did not just get together. They were formed by the CEO of their small company and they had to audition for trainee positions for BTS. They all came from different parts of Korea. And more than one person commented on what Army stands for and you still keep asking what it stands for. So you don't read all of the comments.😢
I'm so glad that you decided to react to the BTS guide before diving into the BTS rabbit hole. In my opinion, it's the best way to get to know the members individually. Also, there is nothing wrong with crying. You're a human being with feelings, not a robot. It takes a strong man to cry, be vulnerable, and humble. Thank you for your reaction 💜 #borahae
BTS are humble and genuine, one of the many reasons why they have so much loyal fans . They are truly amazing people that come into your life when you need them most . Thankyou for your reaction💜💜💜
ARMY stands for Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth. - they are meant to walk alongside BTS in support of the under represented values and ideals that are represented in their music and lyrics. Actually, if BTS ARMY are here watching with you, I guarantee they have all seen this introduction video. We helped Taylor with input on this video, and we've recommended it and seen it numerous times. I think I've seen this video over 50 times. By the way, their award count is now over 900 and counting. And Daesang just means Grand Prize. Yes, J-Hope and Jimin are both Main dancers. You got that right. J-Hope is more street, Hip Hop dancer, and Jimin specialized in contemporary dance, but he also trained in Hip Hop dance. By the way, V-Live was bought out by HYBE and merged with Weverse. So their main platform to stream is Weverse. You should check it out.
I appreciate that you were able to recognize that a leader has many responsibilities that they are not paid extra for. I don't believe RM gets enough recognition about the effort he put into holding the group together, building their foundation, promoting them endlessly even before they debued and supporting each member. He is the glue that held them together and has stated his appreciation for the other members filling in for him when he could not do it all. I don't think many people realize being a leader includes the dutues you mentioned. You had other insightful comments about other members as well. I love them all but I do think RM is under rated. If he had not been a good leader the group would have broke up and we would have never seen them grow into the amazing individual artist that each one of them is today.
yes it's a lot of information to try and take in all at once so don't worry about pausing to read it's show's you are really interested in learning more about BTS and showing respect to all the hard work Taylor Mari and her team took to put this together.
They have two main dancers, and both know hip-hop. Even though everyone sees Jhope as the lead dancer, Jimin's strength is his contemporary dance. So, they are both valuable assets to the group.
Gracias por tu reacción espero que te animes a seguir con nuestros chicos, soy una ARMY de 50 años y bts me cautivo con sus voces arte musical teatral y su baile son completos trabajadores jóvenes ídolos dignos de imitar para la juventud y lo más importante es la humildad y no temer a amarse a sí mismos y a sus miembros sin miedo porque ahora son tan grandes que los heaters ya no les importa gracias a la protección de ARMY de todo el mundo, nuevamente gracias 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Daesang = "Grand Prize". During Asian music award shows, it's basically any award that is followed by "of the Year". So, the top awards for things like "Song of the Year", "Album of the Year", etc. Even better...worse?...than sharing one bedroom? A "dorm" - as they call them - is essentially a single unit in an apartment complex. (Note: Bigger companies would actually buy an entire apartment block/complex as they often recruited 20-30 kids a year, so during any given time, they often had 75-150 each year to watch over.) Think about that, though. A single, one-bedroom, apartment unit. And SEVEN mid-teen to 20 something's (youngest, Jungkook, was 15 and Jin, the oldest, was 20) sharing that amount of space. Shows: Rookie King - 2013 - Their first attempt at a variety show. 8 episodes. American Hustle Life - 2014 - BTS came to L.A. to learn about rap/hip hop culture, through 2 "main" mentors. Coolio and Warren G. They have homework and assignments every day. Hard for many to watch (especially the first episode), but worth it. 8 episodes. Go! BTS - 2014 - Follows them at K-Con. Hard to call it a "series" when there's only ONE episode, but it was an interesting look at that "brief moment" in their lives back then. BTS Gayo - 2015-2017 - These are kind of..."extended" or "additional" episodes of Run BTS. Somewhat like Run BTS, but each episode strictly focuses on music. Karaoke, "fill in the lyrics", and other musically-related games. 15 episodes. Run BTS - 2015-2022 - A true variety show. They play games (board games, card games, VR, computer, sports, and more) as well as learn how to do things (such as pottery, flower arrangement, cooking - both Korean and global dishes)...and much more! Best part...they're often divided into teams and the losing team (or specific member when playing individually) has to do punishments. 166 total episodes so far...I really hope they do more after all are finished with their military service. Bon Voyage - 2016-2019 - Each year, they'd go on vacation. The catch: They have to do EVERYTHING themselves. Checking in at the airports (something their staff has always done for them), finding their way to their hotels (often with cryptic directions), etc. Best part, they get an "allowance" for the trip - groceries to souvenirs to "fun stuff" has to be paid for with that money. They're not allowed to use their own money. 8 episodes per season. In the SOOP - 2020 and 2021 - Note that "soop" (pronounced just like "soup") simply means "forest" in Korean. They rented an AIRbnb for season 1 (8 episodes), then BigHit/HYBE bought and remodeled a HUGE abandoned property for season 2 (5 episodes). In this series, they basically just hang out and try things they rarely - or, in some cases, never - got to do. Basically, it's just 7 brothers having fun - and eating...a LOT - throughout the 13 total episodes. (Please note: If you want to watch Run BTS, Bon Voyage, or In the SOOP, you WILL get hungry watching them eat! Either eat before watching or have drinks and snacks on hand. Maybe both. LOL)
This year the celebrate 10 years since the debut, and the all live together until 2021. The see theme self as brothers and family, most off the members live close to eatchother
Hi, subbed! Ty for reacting to this. You seem like a good person. They say bts finds you when you need them most, & i believe its true for you as well. Pls keep reacting. BTS are a movement to change the world through music 1 person at a time. 💜
I vouch for this truth. BTS found me when I needed them the most. They found me with MIC Drop! 😅 That's my favorite song til this day because it led me to them 💜
All members have now enlist, in 2025 the will be back again as a group, but we is going to have 2 members finish there enlistment in 2024, and the rest in 2025
Just a small note that Vlive is no more so don't look for it. 😄 Shortly after Taylor made this intro it was incorporated into Weverse, a platform originally developed by Big Hit but now used by many artists and agencies. It's where they go live, post announcements and answer posts made by ARMYs (if you're extremely lucky 😅). Paid membership is not a requirement. 💜
well, you have found bts, or, as we say, bts has found you so now army is your extended family. it was nice to see you react to this. i don't have many friends either and i don't have money to help others. i'm on a disability pension and that's not even enough for me to live on on my own (without help bc my family resents me for being ill so i lost my blood relatives). but what i *can* do is sit with my elderly neighbour a few hours a week to listen to her as she cried as she is very alone too. and it's not much, but it makes a world of difference to *her* and that's good enough for me. so do what you can and share the positivity. welcome new army! welcome to our family. the only rules are: love yourself, love others, love the boys and what they work for. you don't have to love every song or every show, but love their message, and spread it. we are stronger as an army, than we single rocks battered by ocean waves. welcome new army. i'm subscribing.
Thank you for your honest reaction. I'm 52 years old and I discovered BTS two years ago. I also had the feeling of not understanding why I hadn't met them before.
of course they are friends...they are brothers , family because they've lived together more than 10 years, 13 years for the first members....Suga said that he can recognize who is the member simply by listening to them breathe !!!!!!!
Among a myriad of reactors who feature BTS, I subscribe only to a few... those whom I feel are real and genuine in their reactions, thoughts, and insights... You are one of them! I am heartened that someone as young as you dreams of doing good for the world! May you find more inspiration in BTS and in Army! I really feel that sometime soon, we will be inspired by you as well! As BTS' song Mikrokosmos says... "Shine, dream, smile! Oh let us light up the night... We shine just the way we are!" More power, more blessings, and more purple love for you!
Congratulations! You understand the messages that BTS sent you. Everything they wrote is what we all go through everyday and they share their pain and success with the fans who listen.
You have us now, Army & BTS are family. I really enjoyed watching this with you. So, I subbed. Looking forward to more BTS, Stray Kids, Ateez, etc. 💜💜💜
Man, drop into the Kpop rabbit hole and you’re going to have an insane amount of friends over the next few years. We are family. I keep adding suggestions to expand your groups outward, so this time will be G (I) -dle, and their song ‘Tomboy’.
You were talking and missed the meaning of Suga’s name; which is for ‘Shooting Guard’, the position he played in basketball, which he loves. He was doing promos for the NBA last year.
Thank you.....for taking an interest in learning about the members, you've earned a new subscriber. I look forward to following your BTS journey and wish you the best in achieving your goals. Stay true to yourself, you are enough. Borahae, ARMY grandma
BTS can actually offer you inspiration and motivation, they definetly have given me support and encouragement to keep moving forward with my plans, and they have made my day on days where i was feeling off. I hope you also find something positive from the content these guys have given us. And ive been with ARMY since 2015, i have found couple of people that ive been able to connect on a personal level, but also i have found a community that will be there with me when i need it. Its been a long Journey, but im truly Greatfull for everything. Im excited to see what youre gonna do next.😊
The scene where they try to get people to come to their free concert in the US is from the series American Hustle Life. It's still available with English subtitles on YT. Suga's stage name comes from Shooting Guard, his favorite position in basketball and has nothing to do with being sweet. B-Free, the rapper who said RM and Suga are girls (btw, why is that an insult?!), to this day "be free" to have no career. The position of leader is a liaison between the company and the members. It's the leader that gets chewed out for members being late for practice, etc. Suga also created Suchwita, a one-on-one talk show, to give his brothers a platform to promote their solo projects before doing their mandatory military service. It's become so much more. Other people in the entertainment industry have expressed how safe they feel in this environment to speak about their music/careers when invited to guest. There are currently 25 episodes. But the episodes with the members still feel special. V (Kim Taehyung) can act! Check out IU's MV "Love Wins All." He's not a featured artist (doesn't sign), but his acting is just top notch!
ARMY originally stands for Adorable Representative MC for Youth. Like the name BTS, it has evolved over the last decade (from Bangtan Sonyeondan to Beyond the Scene), and ARMY includes more than just young adults.
I like how if you don't know something you ask that's show's an enquiring and intelligent mind. This is what EDM is EDM (or electronic dance music) that includes a broad range of percussive electronic music genres originally made for nightclubs, raves, and festivals. It is generally produced for playback by DJs who create seamless selections of tracks, called a DJ mix, by segueing from one recording to another. Hope that helps.
My bias is RM beside being the main rapper, composer and songwriter of the group with more than 215 songs credits under his name , he's the reason the CEO of their company decided to form the band becyhe saw how talented he is and wanted to make sure he depute,BTS wouldn't be here without him 💙 he's such a beautiful person inside and out , no one match his lyricism, please react to his solo songs Wildflower,still life ,joke,chande ft wale ,closer 💙💙
As Army we always embrace and support those who respect our artists, BTS and who share love and care to better the world. I appreciate what you have told about your goal to save the world, you will dude, you are young and you can do. Thank you for reacting to the most talented BTS.. subscribed now.. I purple you 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Enjoyed the reaction. You def seem like good people. Thanks for checking out these boys and not being closed minded. They are pretty awesome and versatile so I think you will enjoy the journey if you continue it. You will also find friends through the BTS experience, honestly. It seems strange but then it isn't. Also, I would say I notice time sometimes helps video views grow. The more you put out, it gets hard for people to keep up with everything every day so if you ever need a break... make sure you look after yourself first. When you post and let things sit, sometimes they have time to get more views and not lost in the feed. I don't know if that makes sense, but anyway... enjoyed this. Hope your channel keeps growing and you stay genuine to yourself and do what you want to do and what makes you happy. If you find you are doing things you don't enjoy... life is too short for that. All the best! I look forward to checking out your journey I you share it. I would maybe recommend Born Singer. Can't remember if I recommended it or not. I don't think so. It is set to JCole's Born Sinner. They wrote it in 2013 right after their debut and then performed it about 5 years later. Then last year, JCole gave them permission to include it on their Anthology. I think it is a good place to start. It gives you a good feel for where they come from. Here is a link of a stage mix with those two performances and Eng Subs that is great. ua-cam.com/video/Z5WLRWMYzEU/v-deo.htmlsi=NxiTiK0Z4HDYiXbw
6:49 The most likely reason you haven’t heard of them before your channel is because the established “powers that be” in both the Korean & US music industries have tried every method they can think of to suppress their popularity growth from the start. Like giving a Hot 100 #1 song a grand total of 6 radio spins. SIX. They have made their name despite sabotage like not inviting them to (or cutting them out of) Korean shows/festivals dominated by the most influential companies/labels where other K-pop artists promote their work and “variety” ones where celebrities compete/play games & show their personalities when they were first starting out. They resorted to creating their own game show where they compete against themselves and even traveled to the US to participate in a (kinda cringey) reality hip-hop show. Even as big as they have become, the pushback against them hasn’t stopped. They simply keep flowing around it because they have cultivated a (still growing) loyal fan base by being their awesome talented selves 🤷🏻♀️
By now most all members do everything. They produce or co produce mostly for their solo songs within BTS albums. Or co produced or produced for their recent solo albums. Suga has been known to write, produce and compose complete solo songs by himself. Suga helps produce or co produce for many group songs . The rappers are always credited as writers since they always write their own verses. But BTS has always been encouraged to learn and grow. They learn from in house company producers and writers, friends in the field and from each other.
if you want to watch their show I recommend watching videos with the title like "funny bts moments", " run bts moments" or something like that, those type of videos always gives a well thought out compilation on what the group/show is about
They were complete strangers who came from different parts of South Korea. The companies train about 30 trainees at once and these are the seven that eventually made it through the training process. All members can write, compose, and produce. EDM=electronic dance music. #BLM
This love and brotherhood that they have is very common in the kpop universe, most groups love each other like family, maybe it's because of the time they spent together as trainees, and also the fact that they live together, almost all groups love each other like this, the boys groups and the girls groups, also they have this love in mixed groups, there is a lot of love involved ❤
1:01:20 i can relate to that, honestly just got 1 friend. stuck by me from elementary into our 20s. it’s a great thing, although there are times i wish i had more people. but at least i know they’re there for me.
Daesang mean grandprize, there are a few end of year music show like MMA or MAMA or SMA and each show have 3-4 daesang categories and its not vote based, its achievement & sales based Artist of the Year, Song of the Year, and Album of the Year
Just imagine, that Wembley Stadium in in London UK (majority English speakers) yet the entire Stadium sang BTS' song to them in Korean ... now that is Love #BTSIsAllLove #ARMYIsAllLove #WeAreAllHuman
Please check out “anpanman”. The guys talk about wanting to be a superhero to help the world, just like you mentioned. Thanks for the great reaction! 💜
You're making new friends here... 😊 I hope we get to see you in the future doing all those things that make a difference in this world and say "We've been supporting him from the very beginning!" BTS inspires many to really work for what they want and follow your dreams, so if you're a dreamer you're welcome to become part of the ARMY. 😊 Fun fact, in South Korea it is very common that artists (idols) receive gifts from their fans on their birthdays or fan signs. BTS used to get many things and very expensive ones (Gucci, Prada, Versace, stars with their names, to own piece of the moon etc). When they became very popular and their company stopped struggling economically they released a statement saying that they would no longer receive gifts from fans and if they sent something it'd be returned, so they only receive letters. When that happened ARMY started investing more on charity on their name (BTS or an specific member) as a way to use the money they would've spent buying gifts on something that helps those in need or the world in general. I'm not saying ARMY didn't donate at all before that but it became a way to celebrate a member's birthday or the group's anniversary by doing something good instead of buying them a Rolex or something...
Ps. Something that would help organize your content is to created playlists, so if I'm mostly interested on BTS related content I can go there directly 😊 That before you have 1000+ videos on here 😅
Worldwide Handsome just means what it literally means: that he is considered handsome by many cultures around the world. He would be appalled if anyone thought he's the most handsome guy.
They are ALL in the military right now, doing their service . Jin and Hobi will be back in 2024 and the others will be back 2025 . It gives you time to catch up on getting to know them
Hi 👋 Helpful hint for the guide: Not sure if you know.... Korean people counted age differently to others... Korean Age vs International Age - difference is 1-2 years depending on if their birthday has been.... In most older videos, including this guide, they are giving Korean ages so you will need to adjust. The members were only 13-18 years old when they became trainees and 15-20 yo when they debuted. In Korea when you are born you are considered 1 year old. Then on lunar newyear every year you add another year to your age, no matter what your birthdate is. .... Year of birth - International age at Debut on 13June13 (Year and age became trainee) Jin 1992 - 20 yo (2011 - 18yo) Suga 1993- 20 yo (2011 - 17yo) Suga started with MIDI at 11 JHope 1994 - 19 yo (2011 - 17yo)JHope started dancing at 8 RM 1994 - 18 yo (2010 - 15yo) RM started rapping at 11 and was well known in the underground scene at 13 Jimin 1995 - 17 yo (2012 - 16yo) V 1995 - 17 yo (2011 - 15yo) JK 1997 - 15 yo (2011 - 13yo) JK signed with big hit at 13yo Rule of thumb - if it's before their birthday - subtract 2 years to get international age. if it's after their birthday - subtract 1 year to get their international age. The Korean Government has recently (June28) brought in international age as the standard in Korea, but all older videos/ interviews/ shows like this one, will be referencing Korean age. 💜Have a great day
Hey! Welcome! Army here will help you out with anything, and don't be afraid of asking questions. We'll also just tell you stuff because we're so excited about our guys. You'll get a lot of suggestions, aim for all seven, then rap line and vocal line, and then the solos. There are both BigHit videos and live concerts, but BigHit might copyright violate you for theirs. Go as long as you can, there are other sites to post. But for now. enjoy!😊
Gracias por tu reacción los chicos de BTS son realmente increíbles no solo cantan y bailan muy bien si no que también detrás de todos ellos hay un pensamiento, un corazón y un amor muy grande hacia sus fans, espero y en futuro sigas reaccionando a sus videos musicales y a todo el material que hay de ellos que es bastante extenso. 💜
Never you mind, Son. As a West Indian 56 yr old 'Army Mom'? You just joined a Global FAMILY around de World. We got'chu. Welcome to our brothers/sisters/fathers n Mothers. If you are EVER in trouble? let us know. Army don't play. Anyway........let's carry on 💜💜
The Kpop terminology can be confusing at first. The dance line for BTS is JHope, Jimin, V and Jungkook. JHope is the dance leader but his 'official' position in the group is Main Dancer and Lead Rapper. For Kpop, 'Main' is in a position higher than 'Lead'. In BTS's case, JHope and Jimin are the Main Dancers (because they had professional training and experience before joining the group and are considered the two best dancers) and Jungkook and V are Lead Dancers (they learned during training and are phenomenal dancers). The Dance Line is the 4 of them. All 7 of them are great dancers.
Please dont be afraid to pause and share your thoughts! They cram so much into these videos that reactors miss a whole part because they were reacting to the previous scene.
All BTS are from South Korea all males have to do Mandatory Military Services for 18mos-2yrs. BTS will be off the scene until 2025 that's when all members will finish military service. All BTS members have enlisted now to do their mandatory military duty. The last 4 members just enlisted 12/11/23 and 12/12/23 including Jungkook. Before enlisting BTS members decide to do solo albums so their fans (Armys) would have music to learn to while in military service. Each member's solo album name and dates: 1) J-Hope 2022* Jack ln The Box 2) Jin* 2022 "ASTRONAUT" single song Will finish solo album after discharge 6/12/2024😮 3) RM* 2022 "INDIGO" 4) Jimin* 2023 "FACE" 5) Suga* 2023 "D-DAY" He also did a solo International tour, he did great name of tour called Day-D, you can see on youtude 6) V* 2023 "LAYOVER" 7) Jungkpok* 2023 "GOLDEN" Each member have different styles and sounds for their solo album you should check it out. All the members worked hard on their solo albums to bring out their on personality. Thank you for your reaction. The power in BTS music is their lyrics, if people don't read the lyrics you never understand BTS. They have meaningful lyrics. You can easily get confused with BTS upbeat production, great dancing but it could be a sad song, learning lesson, tragic lost song. So Army don't mean you stopping to read the lyrics because they go by very fast sometimes, but please stop the video when you're talk so we can hear you clearly. Suga use this name when sing w/ BTS but he use Agust-D name (spelled backwards for Suga) D stand for his hometown Daegu in his solo rap songs because his lyrics are so intense but all true things he went through, he talks about depression, anxiety, OCD, social anxiety, nervous breakdowns, and suicide. All to help his fans get through their tough times in life, to let them know he's there for them for help. BTS always put their life on display, so we can relate to them and find ourselves in each song, so we can learn to love ourselves. BTS group had never separated until they had to do the solo album, each said didn't like the loneliness. * Suga did a podcast called "Suchwita"😮 for each member when they did their solo album he interviewed them, very interesting you should take a look at that as well, he did a few other artist outside of BTS but so personal, they drink alcohol eat and talk😂 I purple you 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Aw….thank you for your reaction. And just remember, emotions are okay. And we can all be friends here! 💜😊
Always!
Amen !!! We are all here for you. Thanks so much for your reaction x
❤💜🙏💜🙏💜🙏💜❤️
It's okay to show emotion, it's too bad people are socialized to feel embarrassed for something so human, especially men and some cultures more than others. The guys are role models not just for being great humans who are not entitled/ arrogant and respect and care/ love so much, but also to show men around the world it's okay to show feelings and be vulnerable and also to be expressive with other men :)
Right, absolutely, but also, they're Very close to eachother More than just PLATONIC friends/Brothership. They've "messed around" back in the days too.
Not just touchy feely for Fun only. And I love it all.😊
@@queenisisboyce9444 you were not there so you shouldn't say and gossip about things that you don't know for sure. that potential has nothing to do with whether or not they present as good influences against male toxicity or not
Many ARMY start by saying "I just wanted to learn their names".....That when they capture us, when you learn their names you also learn how special they are 💜
ARMY is an acronym for "Adorable Representative MC For Youth”
Let’s not talk about that 😂
Not the government name!😅😂
Uhhhhh-😬 thought that was meant to kept hush.
Shhhhh...don't tell him our government name 😬
We don't need to tell the whole planet, we moved on 😂 😂 😂
Great Reaction! Welcome to the BTS rabbit Hole! Pause as much as you need, we love a honest and thoughtful opinion. Borahae💜
Thanks for subbing!
Army knows when you pause, you're immersing into BTS will like it and show more and give you deeper info along with comments. 😂 Kudos for knowing them touched by thier craft and brings to life your dreams or other way fill you
I am a 48y mom of 3 in their early 20’s that are not K-pop fans and I am teased about my love of BTS. There is a saying that BTS finds you when you need them (us…ARMY community) the most. I found them in 2017 at a very dark time in my life and they have been my light and happiness. The ARMY community is beyond amazing the incredibly supportive and loving. Thank you taking the time to watch this and all your BTS reactions. 🤗💜🤗💜🤗
Im 26 and I wish my mom could understand how BTS has helped me and brought light and music into my life again. You rock for being Army 💜
@@leac.s.2334 my girls (23& 25) got me a Suga figurine for last Xmas and a BTS 2023/2024 calendar the year prior. I was so excited:)
There more like family then friends. There 7 brothers even tho they aren't related they have a brotherhood bond that's unbreakable.
100% true
yes that's been forged in the battle for their group to survied with all the hatred they've received since even before the debut and continue's to this day. All nastie tricks the music industry throw's at them both in South Korea and the rest of the world. The death threats, the lies printed about them, etc etc.
@eileencritchley4630 I find it disturbing how people could be so malicious and heartless to attack them when they were just young boys excited to start their dreams. Like, wtf is going through these haters' minds when they decide to do this? These people weren't raised right.
I wish you well with your channel, you're the best kind of reactor, you're real and openly shared of your opinions/ perspectives which were cool to hear :) also you seem genuinely interested :)
Thank you so much 🤗
@@Elmsauce what's great about the internet and social media is its easier to find some like minded people, maybe via Meet Up you can find other people with similar goals
Jimin is both a Comtemporary Dancer and a Hip Hop Dancer he's also a martial arts expert and often combines all 3 things together when he dances. He'll be the one doing flips and kicks in mid air.
It just makes you more of a man when you can show your emotions. Thank you for your reaction. 💜💜
Army is a big messed up beautiful family made by our Seven Kings👑👑👑👑👑👑👑 There is so much comfort and love in our boys and Army💜 Borahae💜
EDM is Electronic Dance Music. Welcome to the world of BTS. They come into your life when you need them. I learned about them in 2020, but didn’t listen to their music until October 2021, the year my dad died and I was 100% working and 100% taking care of my ailing mother. I needed a break from all that and listening to these young men (I am an Silver ARMY of 51 years old) gave me some peace and strength to keep going even after my mother passed away in 2022. I will keep being an ARMY until it is my time to go. Even if they stop making music I will still stay a fan forever. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you for finding them.
Among ARMY, there is a saying that BTS finds you when you need them the most in your life. :)
They all have different personalities and different talents, and they seem to combine like cogwheels to create the best balance and synergy. :)
I guess you already know, the reason why this introduction video is until 2022 is that BTS members have all gone into military service in accordance with South Korean law.
After releasing a collaboration single with Coldplay, Jin, the oldest member, already enlisted about a year ago and is currently serving as an assistant in the Korean Army boot camp under Korean law.
And J-Hope joined the military about 8 months ago after releasing his solo album Jack In The Box and collaborating with J.Cole. J-Hope is also serving as an assistant to the Korean Army boot camp in a different unit from Jin.
Suga released his solo album, D-Day, and he recently sold out all of his world tours and ended successfully, and he joined the army, September 22.
And V and RM joined the army on December 11, and Jimin and Jungkook joined the army together on December 12, just yesterday.
RM released his solo album, INDIGO, last December, and another album will be released after joining the army.
Jimin released his first solo album, Face, last March, and the title track of the album, Like Crazy, became the first Korean male solo artist to reach the Billboard Hot 100.
V released his solo album, Layover, last September, and after joining the army, he is scheduled to collaborate with IU, a Korean female soloist.
Jungkook, the youngest member, sang "Dremers" at the opening ceremony of last year's World Cup in Qatar, and his single "Seven" released last July became the second Korean male solo artist to top the Billboard Hot 100, and recently released his first solo album, GOLDEN.
So they are briefly stopping their eight-year group works and focusing on their solo work.
They promised their fan base, ARMY that each of them will grow further through solo projects and come back together in 2025 after completing their military service.
Six months from now, on June 12 of the following year, Jin will return from the military, and J-Hope will also return to our side on October 17. Jin and J-Hope, who will be discharged first, will entertain ARMY until the other five members return in June 2025. :)
Can I recommend some songs that I was comforted by them?
I'd like to introduce the story of the iconic trilogy that led them to a speech to the United Nations General Assembly.
DNA: Joy of fateful love → Fake Love: Realizing that love was a lie → IDOL, The Truth Untold, Epiphany, Answer Love Myself: To love other people completely, you should love yourself first.
These are included in Love Yourself Trilogy.
Oh, RM's speech at the UN cannot be missed. He was only 24 years old at the time!
Dynamite, Butter, Permission to Dance, these three songs were released in English to give positive energy to people around the world during the pandemic caused by Covid-19. :)
Most of their songs are in Korean, and their music video provides subtitles in several languages, including English.
And I highly recommend the music video and live performance of Spring Day, Mic Drop.
These two songs are totally different from each other, and you can feel the diversity of their music.
The lyrics of BTS' songs are based on their own experiences, and their albums are organic because they contain their growth narrative.
It'll also be fun to listen to their albums in order and analyze them. :)
If you're curious about their personalities, I recommend their variety show, Run BTS. (There is also their song, live performance, and dance practice with the same title as this.)
There is a considerable gap between them on stage and usual. They are actually very cute and funny. 🤣
Oh, I recommend Suchwita(meaning time to get drunk with Suga), too. Suchwita is a talk show created by Suga to promote the members' solo albums. Now, it's much larger than his initial intention, so he invited a variety of guests other than the members, though. 🤣
Episodes in which the members appeared are ep.1, 7, 9, 12, 14, 15, 18 and 21. :)
You can hear the behind-the-scenes stories of the members' solo work in these videos.
He is currently serving in the military, and profitable activities during military service are prohibited under Korean law, so episodes he filmed in advance before joining the military are now being released every few weeks.
And I highly recommend BTS HARDSHIPS 2013-2021 by xCeleste.
This video shows why BTS and ARMY have a strong bond and why ARMY is so protective of BTS.
Sorry for this long comment. But I hope you enjoy this journey. :)
You broke this down beautifully 💜
I guess you didn't read the whole line about RM's titles. All you saw was leader. He's also the main rapper, main songwriter, and a producer. You keep saying that Suga in the main rapper. He is not. The did not just get together. They were formed by the CEO of their small company and they had to audition for trainee positions for BTS. They all came from different parts of Korea. And more than one person commented on what Army stands for and you still keep asking what it stands for. So you don't read all of the comments.😢
I'm so glad that you decided to react to the BTS guide before diving into the BTS rabbit hole. In my opinion, it's the best way to get to know the members individually. Also, there is nothing wrong with crying. You're a human being with feelings, not a robot. It takes a strong man to cry, be vulnerable, and humble. Thank you for your reaction 💜 #borahae
BTS are humble and genuine, one of the many reasons why they have so much loyal fans . They are truly amazing people that come into your life when you need them most . Thankyou for your reaction💜💜💜
Don't just Satisfy other people you have to like it for yourself as well we army like real people so welcome 😊
ARMY stands for Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth. - they are meant to walk alongside BTS in support of the under represented values and ideals that are represented in their music and lyrics.
Actually, if BTS ARMY are here watching with you, I guarantee they have all seen this introduction video. We helped Taylor with input on this video, and we've recommended it and seen it numerous times. I think I've seen this video over 50 times. By the way, their award count is now over 900 and counting. And Daesang just means Grand Prize.
Yes, J-Hope and Jimin are both Main dancers. You got that right. J-Hope is more street, Hip Hop dancer, and Jimin specialized in contemporary dance, but he also trained in Hip Hop dance. By the way, V-Live was bought out by HYBE and merged with Weverse. So their main platform to stream is Weverse. You should check it out.
I appreciate that you were able to recognize that a leader has many responsibilities that they are not paid extra for. I don't believe RM gets enough recognition about the effort he put into holding the group together, building their foundation, promoting them endlessly even before they debued and supporting each member. He is the glue that held them together and has stated his appreciation for the other members filling in for him when he could not do it all. I don't think many people realize being a leader includes the dutues you mentioned. You had other insightful comments about other members as well. I love them all but I do think RM is under rated. If he had not been a good leader the group would have broke up and we would have never seen them grow into the amazing individual artist that each one of them is today.
Thank you for lovely reaction
My pleasure 😊
It is okay to pause as much as you need. We are here to share your BTS journey with you
yes it's a lot of information to try and take in all at once so don't worry about pausing to read it's show's you are really interested in learning more about BTS and showing respect to all the hard work Taylor Mari and her team took to put this together.
They started as strangers connect by a dream ... N now family 😅❤❤❤
Thank you for taking time to watch this! I wish the best for you in the future! Looking forward to more of your videos 💜
They have two main dancers, and both know hip-hop. Even though everyone sees Jhope as the lead dancer, Jimin's strength is his contemporary dance. So, they are both valuable assets to the group.
Every member has their own personality talent did hardwork .... perfect and hardworking 7 person created the group that successful now.
The best to watch after this is THE RISE OF BANGTAN documentary series. It’s worth it! You will get to know them and their journey a whole lot more.
With the bonus and deleted scenes as well for most of the episodes.
Gracias por tu reacción espero que te animes a seguir con nuestros chicos, soy una ARMY de 50 años y bts me cautivo con sus voces arte musical teatral y su baile son completos trabajadores jóvenes ídolos dignos de imitar para la juventud y lo más importante es la humildad y no temer a amarse a sí mismos y a sus miembros sin miedo porque ahora son tan grandes que los heaters ya no les importa gracias a la protección de ARMY de todo el mundo, nuevamente gracias 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
their Variety show Run bts is on their youtube channel in playlist now since they are officially in the the military
Thanks for watching! It’s okay to get emotional! Borahae 💜
Daesang = "Grand Prize". During Asian music award shows, it's basically any award that is followed by "of the Year". So, the top awards for things like "Song of the Year", "Album of the Year", etc.
Even better...worse?...than sharing one bedroom? A "dorm" - as they call them - is essentially a single unit in an apartment complex. (Note: Bigger companies would actually buy an entire apartment block/complex as they often recruited 20-30 kids a year, so during any given time, they often had 75-150 each year to watch over.) Think about that, though. A single, one-bedroom, apartment unit. And SEVEN mid-teen to 20 something's (youngest, Jungkook, was 15 and Jin, the oldest, was 20) sharing that amount of space.
Shows:
Rookie King - 2013 - Their first attempt at a variety show. 8 episodes.
American Hustle Life - 2014 - BTS came to L.A. to learn about rap/hip hop culture, through 2 "main" mentors. Coolio and Warren G. They have homework and assignments every day. Hard for many to watch (especially the first episode), but worth it. 8 episodes.
Go! BTS - 2014 - Follows them at K-Con. Hard to call it a "series" when there's only ONE episode, but it was an interesting look at that "brief moment" in their lives back then.
BTS Gayo - 2015-2017 - These are kind of..."extended" or "additional" episodes of Run BTS. Somewhat like Run BTS, but each episode strictly focuses on music. Karaoke, "fill in the lyrics", and other musically-related games. 15 episodes.
Run BTS - 2015-2022 - A true variety show. They play games (board games, card games, VR, computer, sports, and more) as well as learn how to do things (such as pottery, flower arrangement, cooking - both Korean and global dishes)...and much more! Best part...they're often divided into teams and the losing team (or specific member when playing individually) has to do punishments. 166 total episodes so far...I really hope they do more after all are finished with their military service.
Bon Voyage - 2016-2019 - Each year, they'd go on vacation. The catch: They have to do EVERYTHING themselves. Checking in at the airports (something their staff has always done for them), finding their way to their hotels (often with cryptic directions), etc. Best part, they get an "allowance" for the trip - groceries to souvenirs to "fun stuff" has to be paid for with that money. They're not allowed to use their own money. 8 episodes per season.
In the SOOP - 2020 and 2021 - Note that "soop" (pronounced just like "soup") simply means "forest" in Korean. They rented an AIRbnb for season 1 (8 episodes), then BigHit/HYBE bought and remodeled a HUGE abandoned property for season 2 (5 episodes). In this series, they basically just hang out and try things they rarely - or, in some cases, never - got to do. Basically, it's just 7 brothers having fun - and eating...a LOT - throughout the 13 total episodes.
(Please note: If you want to watch Run BTS, Bon Voyage, or In the SOOP, you WILL get hungry watching them eat! Either eat before watching or have drinks and snacks on hand. Maybe both. LOL)
This year the celebrate 10 years since the debut, and the all live together until 2021. The see theme self as brothers and family, most off the members live close to eatchother
Hi, subbed! Ty for reacting to this. You seem like a good person. They say bts finds you when you need them most, & i believe its true for you as well. Pls keep reacting. BTS are a movement to change the world through music 1 person at a time. 💜
I vouch for this truth. BTS found me when I needed them the most. They found me with MIC Drop! 😅 That's my favorite song til this day because it led me to them 💜
All members have now enlist, in 2025 the will be back again as a group, but we is going to have 2 members finish there enlistment in 2024, and the rest in 2025
Just a small note that Vlive is no more so don't look for it. 😄
Shortly after Taylor made this intro it was incorporated into Weverse, a platform originally developed by Big Hit but now used by many artists and agencies. It's where they go live, post announcements and answer posts made by ARMYs (if you're extremely lucky 😅). Paid membership is not a requirement.
💜
You are so sweet. Thank you for the reaction!
thanks
well, you have found bts, or, as we say, bts has found you so now army is your extended family. it was nice to see you react to this. i don't have many friends either and i don't have money to help others. i'm on a disability pension and that's not even enough for me to live on on my own (without help bc my family resents me for being ill so i lost my blood relatives). but what i *can* do is sit with my elderly neighbour a few hours a week to listen to her as she cried as she is very alone too. and it's not much, but it makes a world of difference to *her* and that's good enough for me.
so do what you can and share the positivity. welcome new army! welcome to our family. the only rules are: love yourself, love others, love the boys and what they work for. you don't have to love every song or every show, but love their message, and spread it. we are stronger as an army, than we single rocks battered by ocean waves.
welcome new army. i'm subscribing.
BangTan Seven? 🫢 I love it, that’s what it is from now on! 💜 Bulletproof seven 😭 cause they can’t be separated 🏃🏾♀️🫠
Thank you for your honest reaction. I'm 52 years old and I discovered BTS two years ago. I also had the feeling of not understanding why I hadn't met them before.
Daesang is grand prize for a category: best album best artist best song best best everything.
A Deasang means Grand Prize eg Artist/group of the year, Album of the year, Song of the year, hope that helps
thanks
of course they are friends...they are brothers , family because they've lived together more than 10 years, 13 years for the first members....Suga said that he can recognize who is the member
simply by listening to them breathe !!!!!!!
You're doing amazing bro! 💜 KEEP IT UP!! wishing you all the best in everything you do 🙌🙌🙌
Thank you so much 😀
Among a myriad of reactors who feature BTS, I subscribe only to a few... those whom I feel are real and genuine in their reactions, thoughts, and insights... You are one of them! I am heartened that someone as young as you dreams of doing good for the world! May you find more inspiration in BTS and in Army! I really feel that sometime soon, we will be inspired by you as well! As BTS' song Mikrokosmos says... "Shine, dream, smile! Oh let us light up the night... We shine just the way we are!" More power, more blessings, and more purple love for you!
Congratulations! You understand the messages that BTS sent you. Everything they wrote is what we all go through everyday and they share their pain and success with the fans who listen.
I'm defenetly subscribing to you. I loved your reaction and your word🫶
welcome:)
You have us now, Army & BTS are family. I really enjoyed watching this with you. So, I subbed. Looking forward to more BTS, Stray Kids, Ateez, etc. 💜💜💜
Fyi, "Nae-gah" in Korean is referring to "I" or "me"
Man, drop into the Kpop rabbit hole and you’re going to have an insane amount of friends over the next few years. We are family.
I keep adding suggestions to expand your groups outward, so this time will be G (I) -dle, and their song ‘Tomboy’.
And EVERY Kpop fan base LOVE long videos about our favorite groups. 😂😂
You were talking and missed the meaning of Suga’s name; which is for ‘Shooting Guard’, the position he played in basketball, which he loves. He was doing promos for the NBA last year.
Thank you.....for taking an interest in learning about the members, you've earned a new subscriber. I look forward to following your BTS journey and wish you the best in achieving your goals. Stay true to yourself, you are enough. Borahae, ARMY grandma
BTS can actually offer you inspiration and motivation, they definetly have given me support and encouragement to keep moving forward with my plans, and they have made my day on days where i was feeling off. I hope you also find something positive from the content these guys have given us. And ive been with ARMY since 2015, i have found couple of people that ive been able to connect on a personal level, but also i have found a community that will be there with me when i need it. Its been a long Journey, but im truly Greatfull for everything. Im excited to see what youre gonna do next.😊
The scene where they try to get people to come to their free concert in the US is from the series American Hustle Life. It's still available with English subtitles on YT. Suga's stage name comes from Shooting Guard, his favorite position in basketball and has nothing to do with being sweet. B-Free, the rapper who said RM and Suga are girls (btw, why is that an insult?!), to this day "be free" to have no career. The position of leader is a liaison between the company and the members. It's the leader that gets chewed out for members being late for practice, etc.
Suga also created Suchwita, a one-on-one talk show, to give his brothers a platform to promote their solo projects before doing their mandatory military service. It's become so much more. Other people in the entertainment industry have expressed how safe they feel in this environment to speak about their music/careers when invited to guest. There are currently 25 episodes. But the episodes with the members still feel special.
V (Kim Taehyung) can act! Check out IU's MV "Love Wins All." He's not a featured artist (doesn't sign), but his acting is just top notch!
you're such a good person 💜 thank you for reacting to BTS.
ARMY originally stands for Adorable Representative MC for Youth. Like the name BTS, it has evolved over the last decade (from Bangtan Sonyeondan to Beyond the Scene), and ARMY includes more than just young adults.
I like how if you don't know something you ask that's show's an enquiring and intelligent mind. This is what EDM is EDM (or electronic dance music) that includes a broad range of percussive electronic music genres originally made for nightclubs, raves, and festivals. It is generally produced for playback by DJs who create seamless selections of tracks, called a DJ mix, by segueing from one recording to another. Hope that helps.
Or he can look it up on the spot.
YES please watch the variety shows they will having your day turned around and you laughing on the floor!
Can't wait!
Great reaction! New subscriber here
Thanks for subbing!
My bias is RM beside being the main rapper, composer and songwriter of the group with more than 215 songs credits under his name , he's the reason the CEO of their company decided to form the band becyhe saw how talented he is and wanted to make sure he depute,BTS wouldn't be here without him 💙 he's such a beautiful person inside and out , no one match his lyricism, please react to his solo songs Wildflower,still life ,joke,chande ft wale ,closer 💙💙
As Army we always embrace and support those who respect our artists, BTS and who share love and care to better the world. I appreciate what you have told about your goal to save the world, you will dude, you are young and you can do. Thank you for reacting to the most talented BTS.. subscribed now.. I purple you 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
The way I was like “wait till u get to jk he will show you the real meaning of ‘can do everything’”😅
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 OT7 FOREVER 🫰
Enjoyed the reaction. You def seem like good people. Thanks for checking out these boys and not being closed minded. They are pretty awesome and versatile so I think you will enjoy the journey if you continue it. You will also find friends through the BTS experience, honestly. It seems strange but then it isn't. Also, I would say I notice time sometimes helps video views grow. The more you put out, it gets hard for people to keep up with everything every day so if you ever need a break... make sure you look after yourself first. When you post and let things sit, sometimes they have time to get more views and not lost in the feed. I don't know if that makes sense, but anyway... enjoyed this. Hope your channel keeps growing and you stay genuine to yourself and do what you want to do and what makes you happy. If you find you are doing things you don't enjoy... life is too short for that. All the best! I look forward to checking out your journey I you share it. I would maybe recommend Born Singer. Can't remember if I recommended it or not. I don't think so. It is set to JCole's Born Sinner. They wrote it in 2013 right after their debut and then performed it about 5 years later. Then last year, JCole gave them permission to include it on their Anthology. I think it is a good place to start. It gives you a good feel for where they come from. Here is a link of a stage mix with those two performances and Eng Subs that is great. ua-cam.com/video/Z5WLRWMYzEU/v-deo.htmlsi=NxiTiK0Z4HDYiXbw
6:49 The most likely reason you haven’t heard of them before your channel is because the established “powers that be” in both the Korean & US music industries have tried every method they can think of to suppress their popularity growth from the start. Like giving a Hot 100 #1 song a grand total of 6 radio spins. SIX. They have made their name despite sabotage like not inviting them to (or cutting them out of) Korean shows/festivals dominated by the most influential companies/labels where other K-pop artists promote their work and “variety” ones where celebrities compete/play games & show their personalities when they were first starting out. They resorted to creating their own game show where they compete against themselves and even traveled to the US to participate in a (kinda cringey) reality hip-hop show. Even as big as they have become, the pushback against them hasn’t stopped. They simply keep flowing around it because they have cultivated a (still growing) loyal fan base by being their awesome talented selves 🤷🏻♀️
By now most all members do everything. They produce or co produce mostly for their solo songs within BTS albums. Or co produced or produced for their recent solo albums. Suga has been known to write, produce and compose complete solo songs by himself. Suga helps produce or co produce for many group songs . The rappers are always credited as writers since they always write their own verses. But BTS has always been encouraged to learn and grow. They learn from in house company producers and writers, friends in the field and from each other.
if you want to watch their show I recommend watching videos with the title like "funny bts moments", " run bts moments" or something like that, those type of videos always gives a well thought out compilation on what the group/show is about
They were complete strangers who came from different parts of South Korea. The companies train about 30 trainees at once and these are the seven that eventually made it through the training process. All members can write, compose, and produce. EDM=electronic dance music. #BLM
This love and brotherhood that they have is very common in the kpop universe, most groups love each other like family, maybe it's because of the time they spent together as trainees, and also the fact that they live together, almost all groups love each other like this, the boys groups and the girls groups, also they have this love in mixed groups, there is a lot of love involved ❤
1:01:20 i can relate to that, honestly just got 1 friend. stuck by me from elementary into our 20s. it’s a great thing, although there are times i wish i had more people. but at least i know they’re there for me.
Daesang mean grandprize, there are a few end of year music show like MMA or MAMA or SMA
and each show have 3-4 daesang categories and its not vote based, its achievement & sales based
Artist of the Year, Song of the Year, and Album of the Year
Just imagine, that Wembley Stadium in in London UK (majority English speakers) yet the entire Stadium sang BTS' song to them in Korean ... now that is Love
#BTSIsAllLove #ARMYIsAllLove #WeAreAllHuman
The started forming in 2010 and had a training period ...They debuted in 2013
Thank you for your reaction. 💜💜
Thanks for this reaction ,,
Keep goingg , and Borahaee💜
700 awards till 2021 and still counting till now...more than 900 awards
Now you have Army by your side we all friends and big family i like you so much hope you continue to watch more bts content 💜
Edm means electric dance music.
Gotta check out their Cypher Medley LIVE PERFORMANCE. Do it.
Loved your reaction 😊 Keep going and believe in yourself! You'll make it 😏🥰
Please check out “anpanman”. The guys talk about wanting to be a superhero to help the world, just like you mentioned. Thanks for the great reaction! 💜
I love your reactions! Hugs from Brasil ❤
You're making new friends here... 😊 I hope we get to see you in the future doing all those things that make a difference in this world and say "We've been supporting him from the very beginning!"
BTS inspires many to really work for what they want and follow your dreams, so if you're a dreamer you're welcome to become part of the ARMY. 😊
Fun fact, in South Korea it is very common that artists (idols) receive gifts from their fans on their birthdays or fan signs. BTS used to get many things and very expensive ones (Gucci, Prada, Versace, stars with their names, to own piece of the moon etc). When they became very popular and their company stopped struggling economically they released a statement saying that they would no longer receive gifts from fans and if they sent something it'd be returned, so they only receive letters.
When that happened ARMY started investing more on charity on their name (BTS or an specific member) as a way to use the money they would've spent buying gifts on something that helps those in need or the world in general. I'm not saying ARMY didn't donate at all before that but it became a way to celebrate a member's birthday or the group's anniversary by doing something good instead of buying them a Rolex or something...
Ps. Something that would help organize your content is to created playlists, so if I'm mostly interested on BTS related content I can go there directly 😊
That before you have 1000+ videos on here 😅
Now as the December of 2023, the awards are over thousand.
wow that's crazy
Worldwide Handsome just means what it literally means: that he is considered handsome by many cultures around the world. He would be appalled if anyone thought he's the most handsome guy.
I highly recommend the documentary "the rise of bangtan" its similar to this one to learn their journey, loved the reaction💜
They are ALL in the military right now, doing their service . Jin and Hobi will be back in 2024 and the others will be back 2025 . It gives you time to catch up on getting to know them
Hi 👋
Helpful hint for the guide: Not sure if you know.... Korean people counted age differently to others...
Korean Age vs International Age - difference is 1-2 years depending on if their birthday has been.... In most older videos, including this guide, they are giving Korean ages so you will need to adjust.
The members were only 13-18 years old when they became trainees and 15-20 yo when they debuted.
In Korea when you are born you are considered 1 year old. Then on lunar newyear every year you add another year to your age, no matter what your birthdate is. ....
Year of birth - International age at Debut on 13June13 (Year and age became trainee)
Jin 1992 - 20 yo (2011 - 18yo)
Suga 1993- 20 yo (2011 - 17yo) Suga started with MIDI at 11
JHope 1994 - 19 yo (2011 - 17yo)JHope started dancing at 8
RM 1994 - 18 yo (2010 - 15yo) RM started rapping at 11 and was well known in the underground scene at 13
Jimin 1995 - 17 yo (2012 - 16yo)
V 1995 - 17 yo (2011 - 15yo)
JK 1997 - 15 yo (2011 - 13yo) JK signed with big hit at 13yo
Rule of thumb - if it's before their birthday - subtract 2 years to get international age. if it's after their birthday - subtract 1 year to get their international age.
The Korean Government has recently (June28) brought in international age as the standard in Korea, but all older videos/ interviews/ shows like this one, will be referencing Korean age.
💜Have a great day
Hiii friend thank you for reaction ❤
Hey! Welcome! Army here will help you out with anything, and don't be afraid of asking questions. We'll also just tell you stuff because we're so excited about our guys. You'll get a lot of suggestions, aim for all seven, then rap line and vocal line, and then the solos. There are both BigHit videos and live concerts, but BigHit might copyright violate you for theirs. Go as long as you can, there are other sites to post. But for now. enjoy!😊
Gracias por tu reacción los chicos de BTS son realmente increíbles no solo cantan y bailan muy bien si no que también detrás de todos ellos hay un pensamiento, un corazón y un amor muy grande hacia sus fans, espero y en futuro sigas reaccionando a sus videos musicales y a todo el material que hay de ellos que es bastante extenso. 💜
Never you mind, Son. As a West Indian 56 yr old 'Army Mom'? You just joined a Global FAMILY around de World. We got'chu. Welcome to our brothers/sisters/fathers n Mothers.
If you are EVER in trouble? let us know. Army don't play. Anyway........let's carry on 💜💜
10:58 We will be supporting you and love you, I know you will be an Army soon
The Kpop terminology can be confusing at first. The dance line for BTS is JHope, Jimin, V and Jungkook. JHope is the dance leader but his 'official' position in the group is Main Dancer and Lead Rapper. For Kpop, 'Main' is in a position higher than 'Lead'.
In BTS's case, JHope and Jimin are the Main Dancers (because they had professional training and experience before joining the group and are considered the two best dancers) and Jungkook and V are Lead Dancers (they learned during training and are phenomenal dancers). The Dance Line is the 4 of them. All 7 of them are great dancers.
Thank you for this 💜
You're so welcome!
Please dont be afraid to pause and share your thoughts! They cram so much into these videos that reactors miss a whole part because they were reacting to the previous scene.

Last names come first in Korea...so for example Kim Namjoon...his first name is Namjoon....3 Members have the last name of Kim
All BTS are from South Korea all males have to do Mandatory Military Services for 18mos-2yrs.
BTS will be off the scene until 2025 that's when all members will finish military service.
All BTS members have enlisted now to do their mandatory military duty.
The last 4 members just enlisted 12/11/23 and 12/12/23 including
Jungkook.
Before enlisting BTS members decide to do solo albums so their fans (Armys) would have music to learn to while in military service.
Each member's solo album name and dates:
1) J-Hope 2022* Jack ln The Box
2) Jin* 2022 "ASTRONAUT" single song
Will finish solo album after discharge 6/12/2024😮
3) RM* 2022 "INDIGO"
4) Jimin* 2023 "FACE"
5) Suga* 2023 "D-DAY"
He also did a solo International tour, he did great name of tour called Day-D, you can see on youtude
6) V* 2023 "LAYOVER"
7) Jungkpok* 2023 "GOLDEN"
Each member have different styles and sounds for their solo album you should check it out. All the members worked hard on their solo albums to bring out their on personality. Thank you for your reaction.
The power in BTS music is their lyrics, if people don't read the lyrics you never understand BTS.
They have meaningful lyrics.
You can easily get confused with BTS upbeat production, great dancing but it could be a sad song, learning lesson, tragic lost song.
So Army don't mean you stopping to read the lyrics because they go by very fast sometimes,
but please stop the video when you're talk so we can hear you clearly.
Suga use this name when sing w/ BTS but he use
Agust-D name (spelled backwards for Suga) D stand for his hometown Daegu in his solo rap songs because his lyrics are so intense but all true things he went through, he talks about depression, anxiety, OCD, social anxiety, nervous breakdowns, and suicide.
All to help his fans get through their tough times in life, to let them know he's there for them for help.
BTS always put their life on display, so we can relate to them and find ourselves in each song, so we can learn to love ourselves.
BTS group had never
separated until they had to do the solo album, each said didn't like the loneliness.
* Suga did a podcast called "Suchwita"😮 for each member when they did their solo album he interviewed them, very interesting you should take a look at that as well, he did a few other artist outside of BTS but so personal, they drink alcohol eat and talk😂
I purple you 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
