"I'm gonna have to learn who is who." ARMY, he said the magic words!
Hahahaha
That’s where it all starts...
Oh so true...I made the same statement four months ago...goodness, has it only been four months? Since then I've been engrossed in their work and discography and lives...they're so talented and fascinating. I guess that makes me a baby Army, despite my advanced age :) 💜
That’s how the chaotic moments starts
@@janetsmith9766 Saaaame!! Started with ON the Grand Central Performance was sooo great:))
HE: wants to know their names
Me: this is how everyone started boy!
Yup!!!
Yessss!
Haha yep
😂🤣🤣😂🤣
hella true!!!!!!
every time someone says "I need to learn their names" a new ARMY is born
Yes, especially if you really just want to know their name no matter what, Knox is slowly becoming one of us.
FACT
the most beautiful life goes on by asian theory i think is one of the best guides
I became "oh, I can recognize them in just 2 days... And I can recognize their voice" since 3 weeks... Have I fall? I don't considere me like an army but...
It's inevitable
It's kinda scary how you're always on point with the lyrics/message in every bts reaction video without even being an ARMY or with just watching the MV first time..
It goes to show u don’t need to be a fan to Understand a message! People are just too lazy or don’t want to see new things
Music and art transcends all barriers, fellow creatives can appreciate and understand that on a whole other level so I imagine that's how he's so good at it, he seems very in tune with creativity.
im seeing his passion on music. other folks keeps on watchin without even turing on the cc. and he got the messages.
seriously, i ve been watching all of his bts content today as i ve just realized that i m a moron who cant decode MVs
its bcz he knows music, he is an artist himself
“Is there a guide to help me learn who is who”
Oh boy, he’s about to get lost in the BTS universe
That's where everything starts....
He sould watch “Who is BTS? The seven members of Bangtan” even though it’s a bit old i still think it gives the best overview :)
@@Isabelangler that’s exactly what I watched when I started out! Great video and very informative
Yeaaah hahahaha
Let's make him look at the theories tho
thats how everything started hshdos
Those giant mop like creatures are from the Korean Lion Dance. It exorcism ritual to be performed in the New Year in Korea to get rid of the bad spirits for the previous year.
This song is basically embracing everything that the haters try to use against them. Taehyung, the one is the heart shirt, is wearing glasses that people told him he didn’t look good in but he really liked. Namjoon was using filters because “fans” told him to stop using them during live streams. Jimin is often accused of being to feminine especially by international antis so he is doing the traditionally female fan dance, Buchaechum, while singing in a high voice, falsetto? sorry I don’t know what it is called. Korean antis accuse them of forgetting their Korean heritage for international success, so this entire song was a celebration of the Korean culture mixed with other cultures, African, Latin, and a few others. With this they are basically saying that we are all people sharing the same earth and mixing cultures should be encouraged but just because someone is taking influence from other cultures doesn’t mean they are forgetting their own.
In the simplest form this song is a celebration of self love and acceptance. Once you can love and respect yourself and where you come from that is something that nobody can take away from you no matter how hard you try.
Well done! Hope he reads that :)!!
Love it!
This was beautifully written. I wouldn't call myself a BTS stan but I love how they stay true as artists even when they have so much pressure at the top. Truly remarkable, they are legends for sure.
THATS IT! THATS THE COMMENT!! 💜🔥
Also a middle finger to people who tell them not to do things they wanna do 😂
This guy literally analysed the song more than I ever could have😲
Bhai wo professional hai, apna kaam jaanta hai isliye genuine reaction de rha hai. It's refreshing to see unlike other reactors.
Same same
Holy fuck did I just see 1k likes?😬
Why didn't youtube notify me?!?
Honestly😂
You read my mind
bts rarely uses green screen for their music videos, but when the haters kept saying they use green screens, they used as much gs as possible for this one!!!
DNA, Dynamite, butter, boy with luv these are all heavy on the use of green screen other songs not so much but these ones are mostly green screen or blue screen
@@potter286 not that much for bwl 😀
@@anmariztakeshima6664 um the couch scene the theatre RM's verse sugas verse j Hope's verse nearly everything in there was cgi
@@potter286 im not saying that it doesn't have any cgi, im just saying that it's not that much 😀 just some few scenes compared to like DNA and idol, that they have almost everything green screen 😀😀😀 but it ain't bad, as long as they good, quality mv and music ❤️
@@anmariztakeshima6664 I'm just saying it does use a considerable amount of cgi and I know dna and idol is all cgi but bwl has a very similar amount as the theatre isnt real at all, the couch is a different colour to the one shown being thrown over the sign, the piano that yoongi dances on is definitely cgi, the entirety of RM's verse and j Hope's verse is all cgi and the love sign at the end is all cgi
That's taeyungh aka "V" who's trolling the camera and giving meme materials😂
taehyung my beloved
His Facial expressions LMAO I am getting flashbacks from tick tocks and cam's!😀
V is king in facial expressions and cute, kooky smiles 😂
V my love💜
Taeyung aka v is always trolling and giving meme faces lol 😂 he’s so funny, handsome, cool, kind, helpful, respectful, loving and caring
The rabbit is in the moon comes from an old Korean fairytale of a rabbit sitting on the moon brewing the elixir of immortality. There is a Korean saying that translates to something like “if you get cursed a lot, you will live long.” So they are basically saying that because they get cursed so much, by the haters, they will live forever.
@@az-ci4eg they do share some history in the past since they are in same region. Japanese also have that tale
@@az-ci4eg In Japan there is a similar story too
Nah, it is jungkook sitting inside the moon.lol XD....
and rabit in korean is "tokki" sound similar to "talking" 토끼 so who know which word are they singing :p
woah! thank you for sharing that, ARMY! 💜
I love that Jin says “I’m in love with myself” because we all know he genuinely loves himself 🤣
World wide handsome, can’t blame him after all lmao
😂😂 jin is very funny & free minded❤
As an indian army, I got so happy when you mentioned "holi " festival😂💜💜
Me too 😂💜
Meh too
But the intro of this song relates to an Indian song
Me too omg
Ewwwwww India
I FEEL LIKE ITS THE TIME HE SHOULD CHECK “UGH! “ NEXT IM SURE HE’ll BE SO SURPRISED!!
OMG YES!
facts
I agree,, and also the lyrics explaination by DKDTV afterwards,,,
Ddaeng too, he basically will be muted in these tracks lmao
I agree!!!
The guy trolling the camera is V, his actual birth name is Taehyung. Lol
Now that I watched his reaction. Omg he trolled so much in this mv😂
Yes that's our boy the expression king😆
Feel like Tae will be his bias
And he is the definition of a Meme Lord
@@VijayMarshall same feeling😄 My also bias is V💜
So Taehyung is the one making funny faces to the camera. And it is a troll response to those who call him “weird, immature, alien-like, etc etc” every member has something they’ve been ridiculed for that they’re taking back and being proud of in the video. Loving themselves
6:49 Kim Seokjin (Jin) - Vocalist(1/4)/Songwriter/Composer/Dancer/Previously, majored in acting/started learning to sing from scratch/grammy acclaimed silver vocalist
3:52 Min Yoongi (Suga/Agust D) - Rapper(1/3)/Songwriter/Producer/Composer/Dancer/Can sing as well/Used to be an underground rapper/he was the first member to be registered as a full-time member of KOMCA(2018)/he has around 127 KOMCA credits
3:35 Jung Hoseok (jhope) - Rapper(2/3)/Dance Leader/Songwriter/Producer/Composer/Vocalist/Used to be an underground dancer & performer/learned how to rap from scratch/he has around 112 KOMCA credits/he has been dubbed as ‘stage presence’ and ‘the beat’ itself due to his charisma on stage and spectacular performance skills
2:16 Kim Namjoon (RM) - Leader/Rapper(3/3)/Songwriter/Producer/Composer/Dancer/Can sing as well/Used to be an underground rapper/debuted at No.3 on BBHot100 Songwriters Chart. He has around 172 KOMCA credits(third most credited songwriter in KOMCA's history, the youngest person to reach that number)
5:27 Park Jimin (Jimin) - Vocalist(2/4)/Songwriter/Composer/Dancer/majored in contemporary dancing (contemp. and hiphop dancing are total opposites but he managed to ace it)
7:31 Kim Taehyung (V) - Vocalist(3/4)/Songwriter/Composer/Dancer/has played a side role in a historical k-drama 'Hwarang' (he has been praised many times for his skills and many drama companies have offered to cast him)/he loves to rap(wants to be featured on a cypher)
8:14 Jeon Jungkook (Jungkook) - Vocalist(4/4)/used to rap when bts were a hiphop group back in 2013/Songwriter/Composer/has directed a bts Music Video 'Life Goes On'/Dancer/mainly in the centre during performances/all-rounder/his nickname is Golden Maknae (Maknae is the Korean term used to refer to the youngest member of a group) because he is good at everything
The names in brackets are their stage names. All 7 of them are members of KOMCA (Korea Music Copyright Association). If you liked this MV check out Idol live & Ddaeng i.e. a song by bts rapline. The list is in age order. The thing about them is that when they try out 1 genre they never repeat it again. If you want to know them more, do not watch guide videos on UA-cam as they are outdated and have misinfo.
The 3 rappers have released mixtapes that they composed, produced and wrote themselves. The vocal line mixtapes are in making. Heads up, the mixtapes are extremely personal and give an honest depiction of them as humans rather than world class idols
RM - 2 Mixtapes.
• RM (aggressive, hits hard)
• Mono (a complete flip from the previous one, mellow, like a hug from RM himself)
Suga - 2 Mixtapes.
• Agust D
• D-2
Both are really raw, hit hard, honest and scream AGUST D, like a person’s support system.
J-hope - 1 Mixtape
• Hopeworld
Jhope has created his own unique style and is killing it!! His mixtape did really well will the general public and still is.
Apart from the songs BTS release as a group. All 7 members often put out free music on Soundcloud like on their birthdays etc. The rappers have collaborated with artists outside of bts. Some examples:
Jhope & Becky G “Chicken Noodle Soup”
Suga & IU “8”
Suga often produces music for other artists like Heize, Suran etc.
RM & Wale “Change”
RM & Homme “Seoul”
RM & Aeon “Don’t”
Yesss
Respect to this summary!
Daechwita
Song by Agust D (Suga of BTS) and BTS 2019 MMA 2019 Dionysus. Have to hear that live.
Yes we need this
yeah
Agreed!
Yes
“Giant mops sweeping away all the haters” HAHAHAHAHHAHAA THATS TOO FUNNY 🤣
Haha what are they really? 🙌
@Knox Hill im also curious! 🤣 hmmmm, btw love the reaction!!! 🤍
@@KnoxHillPlease react to BTS "Blood,Sweat and Tears". My all time favorite BTS music video, that's what got me into ARMY fandom tbh, thank u so much and more power to ur channel. 💜😌✨
Link: ua-cam.com/video/hmE9f-TEutc/v-deo.html
@@KnoxHill i don't know if people have told you yet, but there is so much significance in every image and lyric BTS make in almost every song that there are literally explanation videos. Not every song has one (they have hundreds of songs, it wouldn't be possible) but there is enough to appreciate their genius. You're one of the few first time reactors who caught on to the fact there was so much Korean cultural references. Most newbies tend to look at the videos and think everything is random and just funny. It's really not. Also, they don't have many "standalone" songs (mic drop is one of the few). Mostly their songs are part of album arcs (each album has a certain storyline, and certain groups of albums have an overarching concept. It's really very artistic, creative and interesting). That's why it can sometimes be hard to grasp whats going on. Idol is the final song of the Love Yourself album series, and Mic Drop was also released during that era, hence you notice the similar type of message.
@@KnoxHill There is an explanation of Idol mv by DKDK TV if you want to check it out. Link: ua-cam.com/video/IL7PEjk1pys/v-deo.html
We're all weak when Jimin goes "I'm so fine wherever I go"
Him: I wanna learn their names
Me: the beginning of every armys story... for me? now i can identify them by their shoes love
RABBIT IN THE MOON: In the Eastern hemisphere the part of the moon that is seen is different from what we see in the Western hemisphere. Here we say that if you look carefully the moon has a man's face in it. In Korea, they say that you can see the shape of a rabbit in the moon. Therefore there is a lot of folklore about the rabbit on the moon in Korea.
Yep its basically a shout out to their traditional roots (along with the traditional characters ("the mops") and the martial arts moves are a Korean traditional ceremonial dance move)
cool
@@angl4372 very cool
Also fun fact is that section you hear RM saying 'Talkin, Talkin, Talkin" which phonetically sounds like "Toki, Toki, Toki"; toki being the pronunciation for the word "Rabbit" in Korean. So it's kind of a pun/double entendre in that moment.
Thank you. Do you know the surprise about BTS ? See here:ua-cam.com/video/12AA8kx5IPw/v-deo.html
Nothing makes me happier than seeing different people appreciating and their perspective of BTS's work
Sooooo true ! Me too the same feelig
You're right
Yessss same 💜💜
same
reaction videos like this are a bit of my self medication this year
It's kinda scary how you're always on point with the lyrics/message in every bts reaction video without even being an ARMY or with just the MV first time..
Copied the comments
Your username I- 😂
@@beomgyuusupremacy3307 Well it's true-
You: Am I Army Now?
Army: Uh, YES Man!
Idol is a song for self love and self acceptance. A "traditionally inspired track" featuring different classical Korean instruments, with electronic dance music in the style of South African dance music. The music video is too much on purpose, too many cgi, too many effects, (when they 95% of the times don't use cgis), too many colors, using things that people criticized them about, RM's camera filters, their draws, V's glasses, hairstyle and his shirt with the hearts etc. It's like a answer for people saying "oh you are not a rapper anymore, for being in a kpop group" "you have too many colors in your mvs, everyone looks the same, you are westernized, you sound like american pop, this style doesn't fit you". So yeah they trolling and having fun in the mv, telling that they can't stop them lovin themselves, while honouring their roots.
And this explanation right here is what I felt the 1st time I saw the video and that's exactly WHY THIS IS MY 2nd FAVORITE BTS SONG!!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I didn't take this MV so deep even thou I'm Korean. I was too busy to enjoy all the Korean things. lol Thanks for the interpretation.
Actually the live version is even better than the track..u need to react to it..give them another chance they gonna blow your mind..
Yes it is
yes yess
Facts
Concert live versions are awesome, and the version they did on Jimmy Fallon highlights the Korean dress and culture, plus their performance has that in you're face attitude and the version of the dance that I love.
@@deniseannlange4519 yes💜💜
"There's so much happening behind it" - you have no idea how spot on you are with that. It resonates with every level that BTS works on- be it their music production, video production, lyrics, inspiration, background and backstory, choreography etc. The members and their team put a significant amount of thought and effort to weave their stories and what they want to say and convert it into literal art. They are an endless pit of talent and so much more.
The indian festival you are trying to refer to is called Holi, a literal celebration of colours and joy. It represents the eternal victory of good over evil.
He scared me there loll literally,,"There's so much happening behind it" ??? whoa dude u know what u just came too close to the core with no effort lmao😂😂
One of the most genuine reactions ever seen in the entire history... Usually I don't watch reactions I feel many people fake it. But I love how you are adding meaning to things and how you are ready to admit when you don't know what it is about. Totally loved it ❤️🎉 worth watching ! And the festival is Holi that we Indians celebrate. 💜✨
So true! And he's cute haha that sure got plus point from me :p
Same here...There's one more reaction video that was legit. British priest reacts to IDOL try it
IDOL is a blend of traditional Korean and African/Middle Eastern beats. The leg dance move is the Gwara Gwara a dance from South Africa. I love the energy of IDOL it’s like a punch in the face to their haters and xenophobes, because no matter what they say BTS’ Korean culture is amazing and beautiful (they’re wearing traditional custom Hanboks), and BTS still breaking records with #1’s on the global and USA charts. There’s a great explained by Korean video by DKDKTV about this MV there are so many awesome layers to the meaning it’s wild.
Here: ua-cam.com/video/IL7PEjk1pys/v-deo.html
I swear gwara gwara is from West Africa, specifically Ghana or am I just stupid lol
Yes, the DKDKTV is a channel with two Korean men who speak English perfectly and explain the Korean cultural references in many music videos that non-Koreans wouldn’t understand without context.
@@blackbeauty5817 from the limited info I was able to get seems like it is a South African dance created by DJ Bongz (I'm South African and still had to look it up to be sure lol). But I do know the music itself in IDOL is very much inspired by South African dance music (the whistle sound throughout).
@@blackbeauty5817 its from RSA from the Zulu tribe.
Welcome to ARMY!! You should definitely see: FIRE, DOPE, ON Cinematic Manifesto and August D - Daechwita!!
yes
One of my favourite reactions to idol EVER! Yes this whole song, mv etc was a total smack in the face to the haters. ‘You think we use green screen? Oh, we’ll show you some green screen’ 😂 Normally they don’t use gs much. Other bits like the music influences in the song...the whole thing is a clapback to the haters. Plus the references are unreal, that’s BTS for you though! It’s so good. Also YOU MUST SEE THIS LIVE 😆 Army, we must protect Knox Hill at all costs 💜
#proteccknoxhill!
I’m surprised you don’t mention how badass their dancing is!!! It blows me away!! BTS is sooooo talented - they are humble, amazing singers, amazing dancing, connected to their fans like no other artist.
Actually he focuses more on the beats and the quality of music
You should definitely react to 'BTS ON KINETIC MANIFESTO FILM' next you'll love it!
Yes, yes, yes.
++++++++
YES!!!!! YES!!!!! and YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeessss
+
This is a final song of their love yourself series. They basically go through a journey to love themselves. This song is basically their celebration after they succeeded loving themselves. I recommend if you check out the entire series 💜
Too bad some fans couldn’t understand the message
@@CommanderArmin Can I ask u something?
@@CommanderArmin I don't think it matters too much as long as they enjoy the song? It's a shame if they're missing out, but it's their loss :) there are actually so many messages that explain videos go into which is the next level. A large number of people who care do appreciate the messages though methinks
nods, nods
"there seems to be a deeper meaning to this." oh boy don't let me start, coz then this will be an essay but thankfully i'm lazy so no 😁 just know that with BTS, there's always a deeper meaning to their music. also, they have THE most diverse discography, their music always has something for anybody. looking forward to your journey!
OMG This is kinda scary how you really carch the message, the lyrics, even the easter eggs!!! SO SICK!! 😱😱 we as ARMY like we really don’t need to explain nothing to you! You actually GET IT! And get why we stan them... it’s not just for their looks. I mean I COULD KISS YOU RIGHT NOW I’m stunned.... thank you! You give the best feedback the BEST BTS REACTIONS!! 💜💜💜
Fun fact: Each Bts comeback has a different style, which is what makes each comeback so enthusiastic and the songs of each album are different from the albums before and after and they are the only kpop artist/group to do this they are different from other groups and artists and that’s why they are very popular and loved , they have their own style with different styles on each comeback.
The third guy the one u said about him in the last reaction he got a flow..his name is suga ..he is the fastest rapper and they called him eminem korea..u need to react to AGUST D for him..
Ikr
@@butteristherevolution7374 imagine a collab ..AGUST D and EMINEM ..i mean it's not gonna happen but its gonna be fire🔥🔥
Yea would be great but maybe we should say suga is agust D and suga is a member off bts :)
@@N12S10S i got u..but i said they call him korea eminem but we (ARMY)call him AGUST D (SUGA)..
I thought the eminem of Korea would be Justhis.
“I’m gonna learn they’re names” is a one way ticket. I just wanted to know their names 8 years ago and 8 years later those names are tattooed on my heart and mind.
"I need to know who is who".... and we all live sleepless night ever after😂
Suga also known as Agust D (his name when he drops music outside of bts), is one of the fastest korean rappers. You should check out Daechwita or his self titled song Agust D
Oh please react to Daechwita! It is an AMAZING song!
Up
BTS❤️ 🇧🇷💕🇰🇷. Do you know the surprise about BTS ? See here:ua-cam.com/video/12AA8kx5IPw/v-deo.html
This is so look adorable when suga couldn't put this bottons on. Do you know the surprise about BTS ? See here:ua-cam.com/video/12AA8kx5IPw/v-deo.html
Definitely recommend reacting to “The Seven Member of Bangtan” to figure out who is who.
Seconding this! Full title is "Who is BTS: The seven members of Bangtan"
Yea, thanks for correcting me. Definitely on the to do list for him
++++
Yes me too recommend that
yep
I really love the fact that you really try to understand the meaning of their songs since BTS really take into consideration the lyrics of their songs.
BTS have been criticised for being too Korean. For being too westernized. For being idols, for not being idol enough. You name it they've been slagged off for it. Even for using filters in photos (Hence RM using his filters lol). Just about everything you can think of haters have used against them. Idol is a clap back to all the slights they've received while delivering the message "I don't care what you think or say about me. I love myself regardless of that"
Oh my god loool "I feel like I need some glow sticks"
This is why the kpop community has lightsticks for groups. And they add sooooo much to live concerts. The ARMY bomb (bts lightstick) is soooo beautiful in a crowd. The BTS love yourself stadium tour really showcases the awe inspiring crowd ARMY Bomb movements. Nothing compares bro
Bts - Black Swan. You'd enjoy that
Stray Kids - Easy
Stray Kids - God's Menu
Higher Music - The Purge
Gods menu tho
YESS GODS MENUEE
Menu*
Black swan
YESSS STRAY KIDS EASY AND GODS MENU !! WORK OF ART
BTS can do literally whatevere they want. Musically they never stop experimenting with differents generes. That's something I really love about their music, you never get tired of the sound. It is something different every time
You're not wrong. This was absolutely WILD live. They went OFF. The audience went OFF. It was incredible. Two years later and I still can't believe how incredible a BTS concert was.
Here are other BTS songs recommendations:
- Blood sweat & tears
- Fake Love
- Dope
- ON Kinematic Manifesto
- Black Swan
AAAND BTS Rap Line:
- Cypher pt. 1/2/3 and 4
- DDAENG
- UGH
- Tear
yes pls
Blood, sweat and tears pleasee 😭💜
Agust D of BTS is a crazy talented rapper, if you want proof, react to DAECHWITA!
yes pls
This reaction just made me laugh the whole time. I am full charged in positivity! This reminds me how many emotions I was getting when watching the mv for the first time during their comeback! Your reactions are amazing. You can explain all those layers and music, vocal and rap delivery tricks which always made me crazy, but I didn't know why
The reason I’m hooked up with your videos is the fact that you take the time to think of the meaning behind the lyrics, the semiotic of the visuals happening, you go beyond reacting to what you’re listening 🫶🏻
the one that have the funniest face expression his name is V he have the deepest vocals..his vocals on another level ..u should react to sweet night and blue and grey💜
Yashhhhh, sweet night and blue and greyy
Love how you know this so well
What does the rabbit mean?
Yes!!! Blue and Grey
@@mr.no0bie602 the rabbit in the moon this comes from a korean mythology that a rabbit on the moon is making the medicine for immortality thus the rabbit moon stands for prosperity and immortality in korean culture and theres a say in korean if u cursed alot ..u live longer..the lyrics of this part says people are saying all kind of shit to bts so in conclusion regarding the amount of bts received they will have immortality and prosperity...
The one you were asking about his facial expression is V. He is widely known as the KING of facial expressions while performing and other Kpop idols study his moves and expressions while they are training. He has been labeled “the Idol of Idols”. In this video he is acting kind of goofy to fit the mood. I’m surprised you picked up on it from just a couple of shots. Make no mistake he stands out for his onstage charisma because he FEELS every emotion in the song and it shows. Plus he’s also done acting.
That’s why they say BTS is the genre. 💜
I've been listening to BTS for two months now and I feel reassured knowing that I wasn't the only one who lost their mind the first time they heard IDOL.
6:20 this is V. His full name is Kim Taehyung
11:44 No those aren’t mops! That’s actually meant to represent Haetae- literally “an omniscient mythical creature”. It’s a legendary creature in East Asian Mythology. You can notice that in this video, they are wearing Korean traditional outfits called Hanboks (like at 6:58) and also, their choreography has elements of Korean traditional dance styles (like the spin jump that you mentioned at 9:39). This song may have a bouncy nature with a visually joyous and colourful music video to complement the same, but the underlying message is quite deep; it is them reflecting on their identities. They are artists, idols and Koreans and like this, they have several identities. Their artist selves and their personal selves maybe different, but they are the same people. It is also a clapback to the haters who criticised them, saying that they have become too “westernised” in terms of their musical identity, and also otherwise; hence, they have incorporated these traditional Korean elements by portraying that they honour their roots and are proud of who they are.
The starting lines “You can call me artist, you can call me idol... I don’t care, I’m proud of it” actually point out to the fact, that the initial members of BTS (RM and Suga) were underground rappers, but when they left the underground scene to become idol trainees, they were mocked and looked down upon by the underground rap community (it is a common stereotype that idols are only manufactured celebrities who just follow what’s popular and are meant to just shine in the public eye supported by their visuals and limited talents). In response, they’re saying that they’re “never gonna change and never gonna trade” as they don’t care about what others have to say about them. They have proved time and time again that they are much above the typical “idol” image and also that the go way beyond what “K-Pop” is. I have sooo much more to write, but I guess I’ll stop here for now.
(Also, the Indian festival that you mentioned is Holi)
Yup, it’s a mythical lion figure. People often dress up like this lion figure during traditional Korean festivals. Idol is basically like an anthem song celebrating Korean culture and celebrating who BTS is!
I love the
“Giant mop that sweeps the haters”
same-
"What do those characters represent? it's like a giant mob... they're just sweeping away the haters" - that's the cutest interpretation yet!!!!🤗🤗
OK, so. Excellent reaction! You are correct, there is a lot more going on in the music and in the video then can just be found in one sitting. There are a couple of different explanation videos on UA-cam, from native Korean speakers, explaining some of the cultural context and Hidden Easter eggs that are in the video.
If you want to see a live version, check out the MMA 2018 BTS Idol video. It’s a bit longer, but also showcases some of cultural elements used in the dance and music. Also, the dancers have incredible solos.
LOVE THIS GUY.
ARMY DON'T LET HIM ON THE SIDE.
Btw, if you can react to 'BTS ON KINETIC MANIFESTO FILM'...
Noted!
'ON' will blow your mind dude please react to it
Me too i love him alot ! And can't wait until he discover what BTS is
6:42 the indian festival in which we throw colors at each other is called 'HOLI'
Just love watching you falling down the BTS rabbit hole. It’s an extraordinary journey and, after 7 years, I’m still falling. And adding your clear expertise is an added dimension. Good stuff.
The first one:Rm( rap monster)
The second:Jhope (who said "I'm proud of it)
N3 is Suga
N4 is V/Taehyung( just after rm)
N5 is Jimin( who said " you can't stop lovin myself)
the one who said " who hoo" is Jungkook(The one on the left with the expression is V)
After we have Jin with " oh oh oooyooo ohhh ohh oyoo".
Sorry if it's not good I can't do better xd
Edit; it's not rap monster but real me bcz he changes. Call him just Rm
It's not Rap Monster any more , but Real me
@@jenny-2566 No, it's just RM
@@jenny-2566 no, it's just RM ^^
@@jenny-2566 mhm
He didnt like the name rap monster so he changed it to real me in 2017:)
For a whole different vibe:
"Spring day" from BTS
Or "Your eyes tell" (There is no MV but performances and many lyric Videos woth english translations)
Or "Blue and Grey" (There isn't a MV too. It is from the latest album.) But not only the songs that have musicvideos are good.
They are more emotional and less aggressive.
I would like it to show you a different side so that you will be surprised.
oh yeah
Seokjin/Jin - subvocals/plays keyboards and guitar
Suga/August D - rapper/songwriter/plays keyboards

Jungkook/Kookie - main vocals/lead dancer
Korean media always attack them on every success they have internationally because they cannot believe that a small company about to be bankrupt can make it without the help of a media. They started 2013, recorded music in a garage, documented everything through vlogs, performance always got cut on their national TV, created their own shows in youtube, managed to garner global fandom on their own using raw talents and music. Because they were not managed by a well founded company they have the freedom to create their own music and express themselves. If you check out their old videos, they sleep in one small bedroom using bunk beds to fit in a small apartment. People get to hear them now and if you go back to their history, these guys really worked their way up on their own breaking the structured system where you get told what to do.
Yes to this comment 🙌
Muy bien explicado😌
The best analogy I've ever heard: THEY'RE GIANT MOPS, SWEEPING AWAY THE HATERS BRUHH
The first guy who rapped is RM (Rap Monster/Namjoon) (2:11)
Second guy who rapped is J-hope (Jung Hoeseok) (3:10)
3rd guy who rapped is Suga (Min Yoongi) (3:48)
The guy with funny facial expressions is V (Kim Taehyung) (5:14)
The guy who sings "You can't stop me lovin' myself" is Jimin (Park Jimin) (5:25)
The guy with red hair and also is in the middle in the first scene is Jungkook (Jeon Jungkook) (8:36)
The guy at 11:26 is Jin (Kim Seokjin)
And there's a total of seven members in the group!
6:19
That’s Taehyung. He’s the “weird” one of the group (in a good way, though). Nobody will ever know what goes on inside his head, but we love him nonetheless.
6:38
That Indian festival is Holi. It is celebrated as a way to welcome in spring, and also is seen as a new beginning where people can release all their inhibitions and start fresh. There is also a religious symbolic legend as to why it’s celebrated, but I don’t know much about it since I’m atheistic, but what I do know is that the word “Holi” was derived from “Holika”, an asura. Coming from an Indian.
he," I WANT TO SEE THEM LIVE PERFORMING THIS"
Me, "REALLY? YOU WANT TO? THE STAGE WAS SHAKING WHEN THEY WERE PERFORMING THIS!!!
You are one of the few people that do reaction videos of BTS that actually get it all on point!
All of their songs can be SO different that's why you will be amazed at the different stories and ideas BTS have!!!
"Lots of meme material in this."
Welp, looks like you're an Army now sir. We welcome you with open arms!
Loved your track btw!
“I feel like I need a glow stick”
Army: “we all have one”
Lol 😂
Your reactions to BTS are the best 👍
Not all, some are broke🙂
fun facts:
1. IDOL use South Korea traditional music instruments for the beats and music arragements.
2. There is a house on the refrain part, It's called Hanok, South Korea traditional house.
3. They also wearing Hanbok, South Korea traditional clothes, but in modern model where you can mix & match it with casual daily styles.
4. The dragon means "independece" by South Korea citizens.
“The most beautiful life goes on: a story of bts” by Asian theory is a good guide sorta for them. Thanks for reacting luv it💜😂
YES this!
yes pls
I also recommend you this video. It’s the most updated and very complete
This song is more deep than a lot of people realize when they first watch and i'm glad to see you went really deep with the reaction:) The rabbit in the moon is from the Chinese tale, the rabbit is busy pounding the elixir of life in a mortar for the goddess of the moon. In Korea, the rabbit is pounding rice into flour in a mortar to make heavenly rice cake. It's also a reference to a famous Korean folktale, in which a god honored a selfless rabbit by placing it in the moon. The rabbit also symbolizes immortality and there is a Korean saying that translates to "the more you are cursed at, the longer you will live." BTS could see themselves as the rabbits, there's a lot of multiple meanings and references and cultures in this video. I'm afraid I can't help you with the mop looking things, I think it's a cultural costume sort of like the Chinese dragon but I am really not sure. I really hope you do more BTS! I love the way you look at their music and I also like your music too!
That Indian festival where we throw colours at each other is called "Holi"❤️😘😘
you're right. idol live performances are something else. insane
u should definitely check out
1-Tear
2-ugh
3-ddeang
I'm telling you their whole discography is so diverse. There's no song sounds the same. It's like you're entering into a new world with so much great things. Even their side tracks are 5 stars. You're going to like them for sure
Omg he's asking about V!!!
His real name is Kim Taehyung. And he's the king of facial expressions!!! He's the reason why got into kpop!
Ngl his reaction video on BTS songs are the best. The way he breaks,everything in lil detail is amazing. Not everyone does that and seems like he is enjoying it very much. congrats you got another Army subscriber!
I really recommend you check out their song “UGH!” It’s a rap line only song and it really showcases the rappers full pontecials. The lyrics are about getting angry at people being angry for no reason and harming other people that way. It talks about how anger can be good and can even change the world but many people don’t know where to direct it towards
Him: "What made me feel like it's bts is that there's this aggression and swag to it"
Me: "HO we're just getting started. there are aiuefhgywjhb more sides to this amazing group"
LMAO DJSBDNSJSEH-
This guy knows so much about artists and music, appreciate the way he explained . Only an artist know about true artist. ✋
" i have to know who is who", the exact same thing that i said about a week ago, now i know every single song of bts 😅 😅 ❤️❤️❤️ newbie Army 🇮🇷
Welcome to the fandom 💜💜 It’s how we all start 😅
I’m waiting for him to fall into the jimin efect, he can’t be the exception 🥴
Hahahhahahah dudee same !!!! Im just waiting for it
@@younggouda6764 when you jim in you cant jim out

I love that BTS used the green screen so crazy for de MV beacuse the haters don't stop to say that all of MV of BTS was with green screen, the video plus the sing.... really BTS is very cool.
I can't wait until you see the lives for some of these songs you will be blown away. Welcome to the rabbit hole of BTS.
Here we go🔥💜i have been waiting for so long😂
Same lmao
Same here lol
Same😂😂
@@gdushsydgshwhxiaxy4845 Can I ask u something?
@@Sofia-ss2pm Can I ask u something?
The Indian festival that you asked is Holi...
It is the festival of colours!!
i'm actually kind of surprised that you picked up so much of the intricacies and nuance of the lyrics and the visuals of the song because generally, with bts, context is **key** in identifying most of the metaphors in their work. great job! you're very smart and intuitive and once again, your remarks on the production were super interesting to hear. thank you for making this video!!
Dude you're SO intuitive on your first watch/listen... it's really impressive
Listen to Ddeang. The instrumental, instruments, flow will be world shaking lol
Stray kids-Gods menu... I think you will be impressed that they have their own producing unit within the group that creates all their songs... their flow is ridiculous
The live performance of Idol is so lit. It gets your heart pumping to hear it in a stadium of 60k ARMY singing along. And BTS go wild when performing it. They don't make bad music. From front to end, their discography is perfection. 👌
There’s a lot of Korean influence and references in this mv. It’s one of the reasons why I love it so much.
