He explained in the music video shooting sketch that he made the song when he was lost and depressed and that the aggressiveness, distorted and autotuned parts represent the dark thoughts inside his head, so it’s like his real self and those negative thoughts are having a conversation that’s why it’s switching from natural voice to artificial and distorted voice. The chorus in which he sang “Set me free” repeatedly was more like him begging and pleading for those "thoughts" to go away because he wanted to overcome those feelings and the depressive phase in his life. He also said that he intended for the choreography to convey these emotions that's why it was so intense. Everything was done so artistically and epic. Some may not agree, but this song is a masterpiece. Production-wise, choreography, vocals, everything!
I feel this needs to be mentioned before the release of the song so people don't interpret their own meaning as it may impact how one likes the music or relates to the lyrics. Now the song absolutely makes sense in line with his personality.
Actually, he is talking to his negative self (the robotic voice/autotune). He tells this part of him to set him free because he said in the interview that only you can set yourself free, you are your own enemy but also the only one that can save you. All you need is the courage to overcome yourself. "Do you" is the message. All the details (the set, the tattoo, the dancers formation,...) are soooo deep and impressive, the creativity behind... he is such a genius and the performance of this feeling is beyond beautiful. Masterpiece.
Jimin's professionalism is evident in the chorus where he repeats the same phrase 8 times and it doesn't sound boring! On the contrary, there are so many different things going on behind the scenes! As every musician knows, the basic principle in music is "never repeat the same musical phrase in the same way"! Here we see exactly that! Music at a high level!
6:51 they are mimicking the butterfly here. An army on twitter come out with interesting theory, that the choreo is based on metamorphosis of a butterfly. Jimin is the caterpillar, the dancers are some element that will turned him into a cocoon. At the end jimin successful turned himself into a brand new jimin, the one with white outfit, a better, free jimin 🤭
man.. welcome to jimin versatile vocal. he often use it as background vocal but ppl rarely notice as he more known for high notes. im glad now he can set himself free from the box ppl put him into. go jimin go, king of vocal and king of dance!!! btw thank for ur reaction
The song is dark and a bit intimidating but for me it feels like healing.. yeah everytime i listening to it i feel im alive esp that intro.. ilove it... Thank you Jimin for this masterpiece 💜
For me it's not dark at all. Why? Just cursing bothered me...I wouldn't like it. But it's not dark...it's powerful, impressive, expressiv freedom. For me is winning song, freedom and escape...as ON.
I still have chills all over my body with this MV. The way he was looking at the camera with those siren eyes, the way he walk away, the way he said "yeah" and "set me freeeeee" felt like heaven, the concept, the color, the sound, the beat, everything in this MV smell BOP 🔥🔥🔥💜💜💜 I love him so much. He proved again by this MV why he is my bias since the beginning. He literally biased me again. He does every single day 💜💜💜
This Song Should be Performed at Super Bowl Halftime Show 2024!!~🔥🔥🔥🔥 It's a masterpiece soundtrack, vocal, choregraph, motivation and chanting out loud hype pump up song for perfect annual football games.
this is a Masterpiece, I love everything about it, just by the dancers and of course the 👑 synchronized moves you can tell the amount of work they put in, Jimin is a perfectionist, he’s an amazing artist, singer, dancer, and a very humble human being 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I think the 'set me free' has more to do with the burdens and pressure that Jimin felt during the last few years, where they had to made the desicion to put BTS on hold and each produce solo music. We all know Jimin is really hard on himself. I feel like in this song, he sets himself free from all that. Also, during the second verse, he doesn't have a shirt on, it's like he is taking the pressure of his shoulders and in the end, when he is dressed in all White, he put everything behind him and he is truly free. I also feel the use of the more robotic sound and his clean voice is representing his inner and outer thoughts. The robotic voice representing his inner thoughts and struggle. I cant wait to see what he Will do with this song live.
I think the Dance Practice video is almost as dramatic as the mv. It focuses on the choreo so we get to see much more detail than we do in the mv and it makes the dancers equal partners with Jimin in the practice performance.

70 year old Army here. Jimin is using a line from "ON - Kinetic Manifesto Film" and I think it was RM who said "Gotta go insane to stay sane." Jimin says "Going insane to stay sane". It really works in both songs. This song is really a strong statement from Jimin. He explains the meaning of it in another video. So happy for him and his solo success. The title song for his album that just dropped last night is really good too. In fact the album is all pretty darn good. Congrats to Jimin! I really love your reactions. You are really good at interpreting these MVs. Thank you for another amazingly good reaction! 💜
here is a translation of the poem written on his chest. the lyricist is Rainer Maria Rilke. it fits so perfectly to the song and to Jimins personality. I live my life in ever-widening circles that stretch themselves out over all the things. I won't, perhaps, complete the last one, but I intend on trying. I circle around God, around the ancient tower, and I circle for thousands of years; and I don't know, yet: am I a falcon, a storm, or a mighty song.
after all the solos of the seven members, it would be interesting how the different paths they take to self-expression as individual artists will develop into a new dynamic on how they will create music as a group when they get together again in 2025.
EPIC in one word! Thanks for your detailed reaction as always. I love your appreciation of everything..Do a reaction to the dance practice too. You will definitely see some other things. I purple you 💜
Loved your reaction, I knew it would be an insightful one. This is a work of art, and like all excellent works of art, it evokes intense emotions and can many different interpretations as viewed through the eyes of different person. For me, I took it to be not just Jimin's statement on his freedom to create his own music, although I could see that being part of it, but it felt like he was talking about external and internal pressures, and how he's finally letting those go and setting himself free to live life fully as himself, for himself. The judgement scenes (at least I saw them as judgements) and the different voices he used could be his internal voices echoing over and over what others who judged him said as well the external critics judging him for not being exactly what they wanted him to be or just because they needed to let out some hate. But again, my interpretation is colored by my experiences, and as is the case with the best art, we'll never know exactly what each detail in the performance meant to the artist unless the artist tells us. Thank you for your thoughtful reaction.
This is why i love your reactions, you don't need to be exaggerated just to get views. I love how you can still express your awe and opinions without doing exag reactions, plus on how you actually analyzing everything on the video. I swear, when Aaron said HONEST REACTION, it's real.
Ваша реакция для меня бесценна. Так как с вы виду холодный сдержанный парень ! Я люблю Чимина ! Он гений танца и вокала! Постановка и хореография отлично подобраны , к его теме! Танцорам , браво ! Огромный труд многих людей подключены в этот клип . Подсветители, звукорежиссёры , операторы, хор, хореограф, танцоры.💣🔥 Клип ваууу!
Thank you for your reaction, Aaron! I love how much you pay attention to music and details. I subscribed! Jimin said in an interview that one day he found himself being held back by negative and depressing thoughts, and decided he wanted to be free from them so this song was born. 😊
Hi aarron i been waiting your reactions sinced day 1 set me free released on youtube.....actually your comments is beyond my expectations..very educative and i feel you kinda a great choreograper in the future....
I am not a fan of Reactors, but I have 2 in my list, now you made me interested to look forward to your future videos. That was very detailed and professional reaction with a touch of your personal feelings. "Such a pieces of Artwork"- Aaron Freeman Btw, you look so handsome and your eyes is like a sky. You belong from a good DNA.
Esse clipe musical do jimim, está maravilhoso:coreografia, a musicalidade do jimim,sua performance está perfeita.minha opinião como simples admiradora do BTS e do Jimim.
The first two phrases are not auto tune: that’s him rap-singing in a very low register (similar to his growls/deep voice in past songs), probably with a bit of layering of his own voice. The auto tune doesn’t happen until “I never stop”. And “again, repeat” is his own voice (I think again is the word - you don’t have subtitles on). It’s conversational…the back and forth - 2 voices. He is setting himself free from the negative noise in his head that’s caused him so much self-doubt, low-self esteem etc. for years; but ALSO setting himself free from the haters who have relentlessly tried to pull him down for years. He’s telling them to F off because he’s on his way, doing what HE wants to do that’s true to himself. He’s a genius!💜👑🔥🐥
Jimin is pure perfection as always.. Love the vocals, the choreo what a piece of art💜 to me it feels like breaking free and transformation and change💜💜💜💜💜
This song it's not about being free and separate from his group to do solo work but as he mentioned that: Jimin here is fighting against himself and he was talking to himself and telling himself hey fool get out of my way and let me ignore all my oppositions and haters, it the time to be himself and i am on my way to help myself as he was trapped inside himself and he is fighting his inner self, he suffered from depression in the past and difficulties at the beginning of his debut time and if you go and listen to Lie it has similar meaning and similar lifting choreography and also to get himself out of this Lie he was living in so now it's the time for him to set himself free by himself.
Thank you for such an amazing and thoughtful breakdown! I loved hearing the small details that you picked up on and that I missed, despite watching this MV a hundred times. Love your content 💜

This is a masterpiece...its not just a song..song. this is art and it's not for everyone and for sure jimin knew that.

MASTERPIECE 🔥
he slayed so hard
Thank you for reacting and supporting. His voice and dance are so prefect. Mv so so good
The auto tune is for artistic expression and it enhances the song……Jimin is genius🔥
It was his idea?probably not
He's had so much opposition from haters and he's wanting to be free
This is a pre-release track, the title track mv will drop this friday (March 24) with his entire album FACE
& he be performing new release on Jimmy Fallon the 24th 😀
here is a translation of the poem written on his chest. the lyricist is Rainer Maria Rilke. it fits so perfectly to the song and to Jimins personality.
I live my life in ever-widening circles
that stretch themselves out over all the things.
I won't, perhaps, complete the last one,
but I intend on trying.
I circle around God, around the ancient tower,
and I circle for thousands of years;
and I don't know, yet: am I a falcon, a storm,
or a mighty song.

Wait for the main title track like crazy
10:33 I was hoping you would spit your coffee 😂 😂 LOL ... That would have been so good for the screen.. I'm dyeing 💀 💀 😂 😂 haha
Those effects on his voice produce the duality of his personality … what a masterpiece of visual/vocal form… he NEVER disappoints
Been waiting for your reaction 👀🔥
