I wished you knew from the start JHope was shy because it is IU 😂 She is as RM said, “the number 1 Kpop Star in Korea”. Every idol looks up to her, she started from the very bottom and built her empire, plus genius and talents and perfect personality. She’s the only one who can beat BTS in charts and awards.💜
Almost every single korean artist really admires IU, so I bet he was extra nervous and happy for being interviewed and praised by her! He seems to respect her a lot as an artist and person. They make an awesome duo!
IU is literally a queen in the kpop industry, she is a soloist , singer , a wonderful songwriter, producer, actress…bts and iu have a big respect for each other’s music
J-Hope and Jin seems to be the most private members in BTS. They and the other members have said that J-Hope and Jin are different when they all are just away from the cameras
oh definitely agree to this. they also are 2 of the most funniest members on camera. Off camera bts says they are said to be more quieter, and more silently observing of things. you will also notice the members constant talk about these 2 members influencing them in ways.
Maybe it's just me, but I find j-hope to be quite easy to read actually? As an INFJ myself I'm also really quite when alone and more vocal/energetic with people. I agree with you on Jin btw.
I love how direct and open IU is in this: "I saw your eyes shake" "you didn't know what to call me when you showed up" "I felt closer to you after singing with you" it's an amazing strength to be able to call someone out in a way that makes you closer to them rather than farther. She takes him to a place of vulnerability by straightforwardly asckowledging emotional things or awkward things, but she does it in such a kind way as if it's not a big deal, and by using that approach it ends up being not a big deal at all. Very impressive.
IU is a great artist and actress. She is really big in Korea and even in the industry longer than BTS. Each and every member of BTS admired IU as an artist from their pre-debut days. So, it's obvious Hobi was a little bit shy and nervous during this whole interview. But I love every bit of this interview.. it's so beautiful to see this two artists together 🥰🥰. Love your reaction and inputs, Max. 💜
I appreciate how you picked up on how 'private' Hobi is, considering he can be such a bright charismatic member of BTS. But I've also thought he's one of the most professional members, who does keep his public JHope BTS life separate from his personal HoSeok life. He shares the most content on Instagram and loves to work social media so well, but it's well crafted and curated. Jack in the Box songs were his most raw self-expression so far. I think overall Hobi radiates true kindness, caring and warmth. Sometimes his bright loud energy may be extra efforts he puts on for camera, but his caring comes across in so many ways in how he responds (and he's super fast responding to any of their social media posts) and treats his BTS members.
IU is like a Korean Princess, she is multi talented, she sings and acts, but at the same time she is very humble and down to earth just like BTS, that's why she can connect with everyone very well, they have seen each other many times at different award shows, the boys have always watched her performances with admiration, but it is differnt to talk to her personally, it is almost like a dream come true, but she makes you feel very at ease, relaxed. Hobie felt that and it made him open up a bit more. She is super sweet and he is as well, it was such a cute interview and I loved every minute
IU is called nation's sister and called as one of the living legends in Kpop ( along with BTS). All respect her. She started from very very poor background literally from poverty. Her life made her a good human. She is very charitable. She is/was ideal type of many idols including BTS Jungkook.
Watch IU's Palette with Shinee! It's the only one where the guests started off immediately relaxed and she didn't have to work to get them to open up. Because they all started in the business together.
@@maxpbeaumont And the opposite episode where she is super stress and nervous cause she is interviewing her seniors. It is a really interesting contrast! [IU's Palette] Let's be happy in June! (With Broker) Ep.13
the brightest members, i feel like, are also the most private with their feelings, hobi and jin (also jk) rarely open up in conversation about emotions and deeper/darker things
iu fans here XD thanks for this, its nice to see iu's communication skill and a bit of host skills analyzed by someone neutral ... IU is someone special in South Korea music/ entertainment industry :) I think her "position" is a bit difficult to fully explained XD in short she's S.Korean's sweetheart, like someone in comment section said : "like S.Korean princess" if you like Seventeen too, pls react to IU's Palette with Seventeen as well, you'll understand IU's stature better in there also Seventeen boys are 100% sincere there so yeah, you'll learn more abt them too
J-Hope was a bit starstruck by IU. She is Korea’s “It” girl and has been in the music industry longer than he has - and is older than Hobi. He was a bit awkward. He was much more relaxed and opened up a lot on Park Sohyun’s Love Game Radio Show. Great interview!
I have been basically watching BTS content almost daily for 6 years and it often hits me that: I don't really know them at all. Like BTS share sooo much and they make so much new content for us where they are always just themselfs and honest. But, they don't really talk about their personal life at all. The easiest subject where you can clearly see that is their home. There is literally only maybe one video of each of their homes where they lived for YEARS. And even that videos get released only by the time they have moved. For example Festa 2022. They lived in that dorm for YEARS, but we only saw it in one scene in 'Life goes on mv', and we saw that exact living room in Grammy announcment and in the Festa 2022 dinner, which showed us basically zero of their home. Like I am not saying they should show us their home or anything, but regular people post a pic of them chilling in their living room or cooking in their kitchen. But with BTS we rarely even get that. Even pictures of their dogs are super rare... So yeah. All BTS members are super private, while at the same time making us feel like they share everything
I actually love the fact they don't share that much about some aspects of their private life because in that way fans and the general public can't interfere that much and it's harder for Sasaengs for example, to find their location and stuff when it's outside their work schedule so yeah.. when it comes to private life, BTS usually shares with army more about their own feelings and thoughts, I think that's why we feel that we know a lot about them but as persons and their bond with the other members but at the same time we don't know them it all outside that circle(?) lol We know very few details about their dating lives, their religious and political views, their past and present relationships, their sexual preference, their family, their friends and even their charity works that it's something that usually celebrities make public and BTS don't. Honestly, that makes me love them even more because they don't intend or really care to get attention and praises, they do it from the heart and that's it. Bangtan are humble kings 💜 Anyways, besides music, other content and interviews, they don't directly talk about these topics or they don't talk much in detail. Hopefully, it stays that way! It's amazing that they have managed to keep those things a secret considering how big they are. It's amazing too, how even if we don't know some basic thing about their private live, we feel connected to them, in certain way we know a lot of thing about them as human beings, their personalities, habits, struggles, funny events or sad and special moments with the members, friends and family, inside jokes, etc.. all of that make us feel really close and have a strong connection with BTS! Army doesn't really need to know the who are their friends, who are their exes, who they are dating and more to relate to them and have this bond. 💜
@@BansheePurple exacly. And I love how Bighit also has that mindset. They never adress rumors about members personal life, they just quietly sue people who start and share them.
The members often talk about how kind, generous and amazing Hobi is and I take their word for it. You can clearly see from all the contents they have shared over the years what personality Hobi has. Everyone who has encountered and work with him only has positive things to say about him. He deserves to know how he affects the people around him and he deserves all these compliments. 💜
I have so much to say after watching this! thank you for the reaction and analysis. first thing, as other commenters have pointed out, iu is an extremely established artist and actress and was in the industry for 5 years longer than bts has. iu is arguably bigger than bts in Korea and she is one of the biggest artists to come out of south Korea. almost all idols have huge respect for her. iu and j-hope haven't really met before this, but they are the perfect pairing as I find them to be so similar. they're both extremely professional and good at what they do. not just singing, songwriting, and producing (and acting too, for iu!) but it is their ability to carefully craft a marketable image for themselves that is so impressive. they are both ambitious, creative, and very business-minded. iu is definitely someone worth checking out, in terms of music and communication skills. regarding your comments about her being soft-spoken -she absolutely is, and talks very politely, but she is also very blunt (think yoongi). she tells things like they are and she is not afraid to call you out on something. i think she has that in common with bts. second thing, i'm so glad you said the comment about how j-hope is private because this is how i felt too. j-hope (along with jin, in my opinion) is one of the most private members of bts. they seem to like to put a distance between their stage persona and their personal life. as i said, j-hope is one of the most professional members of bts - he knows what he needs to do and how to do it. everything about his j-hope persona is perfectly crafted and executed. this is not to say he's being fake, but he's extremely detailed and intelligent in how he presents himself to the outside world (and that's a good thing! that's how he is able to retain his own character and to carry himself with such confidence) i often feel like a lot of armys misunderstand his persona (sunshine) to be his full self. i definitely think it is a part of him, but i also feel there's a lot he keeps to himself, and members have said he's a lot quieter and different off camera. i thoroughly believe that j-hope's kindness is the same as jung hoseok's kindness, though. there's a thing that j-hope is everyone's favourite member (among the members), and it's not hard to see why. he is a caring and calming presence, and he comes off as someone who is very strong and emotionally mature. this is a bit unrelated but it reminded me that i also think of jin as one of the most mature members of bts. a lot of armys joke about how he acts like the youngest when he is the oldest, but i truly feel like him being the oldest is so apparent. he can joke around when he wants to, but he is always looking out for his younger members (in multiple instances, i see him defending the members: in the recent festa where they announced their chapter 2, when members joked about v's album/mixtape taking years to make, jin said "I'm sure v has a plan", and when jungkook was talking and everyone kept complimenting him on how mature his vocabulary was, jin said "let jungkook speak"). in these instances, the members were not being mean or attacking each other in any way, but jin's responses let them know "don't worry, I'm on your side", to give the members a bit more confidence when speaking. i feel like this is a very older sibling thing to do. like when your parents are nagging at you about something, and your older sibling tells your parents, "don't worry, they know what they are doing". whenever the members need help with something, he steps in and tries to fill in the gaps of what's needed. in a society where age hierarchy really matters, jin was also able to put aside his pride to support rm as a leader, which is very mature of him. he is mature enough to understand that rm is the leader that bangtan needs, and that his role is to support the team and the leader from behind the scenes when necessary. for me, j-hope and jin are very interesting individuals because of the contrast between their stage persona and their real selves.
j-hope's bright personality, the very reason why us ARMYs call him 'Our Sunshine' 🌞 I'm new to this channel btw, it's pretty nice and interesting to watch videos like this.
Spot on about IU. She is great at changing the interview into a dialog and honing into a nook and crafting the right direct question but without any warning that the person might put up barriers to defend themselves. Interviewers and journalist could learn from her. Her guests always follow the change and continue to share and more than they expected. She impressed me in this role AND she's a great singer as well. Smart to develop this platform to continue her career on her terms
I love IU! You would really love her interview with shinee she debuted around the same time as them so they have known each other for a very long time. She was also very good friends with jonghyun.
This was so interesting, I agree with everything you said about IU and Hobi, they are adorable. Appreciated the way IU lead this interview, she made him smile, laugh, get shy and so happy. I would like you to react more of her in the future.
IU is arguably bigger than J-hope, has been in the business longer, and she's older, she's his 'seonbae' in the industry. She's doing a solo Olympic stadium concert later this month that sold out within minutes.
I’ll be honest, if I’m ever nervous in an environment and someone *notices* that and *mentions* it, like “I understand that you’re nervous.” It will definitely make me feel a little embarrassed, but extremely relieved at the same time. I’d prefer being perceived as nervous than be misunderstood as ‘not wanting to be there’. That’s what I liked about this interview as well! like you mentioned, IU being observant and expressive is such an impressive trait of hers.
i love what you've said in this video. it's very true how hobi is a pretty private person despite someone who has put out so much content and energy. IU was definitely the right person to have this conversation with Hobi because it was calm and open. we could see hobi in his embarrassed and confident moments and he got to talk about his music and what it means to him in depth with someone who did the proper research about him and is a singer themselves also some of the members of seventeen were also on IU's Palette! that was also a great interview!
When it comes to talk about music j-hope is very articulate and lets you know as much as he wants, he doesn't overshare and he is sort of protective of his work. There's another video; V is interviewing j-hope about a couple of songs he wrote and I can see similarities in the way he expresses himself with IU's interview. I love that about him.
One of the things that really stands out about Hobi's personality particularly in this interview is his more matriarchal upbringing, and I think it explains that blurry overlap between embarrassment and flattery that you talked about. Hobi has an older sister, and unless I'm mistaken, his dad is the only male member besides him in his immediate family, making it more matriarchal. I'm not sure if you or anyone else has noticed this, but guys who have older sisters and/or grow up in a family where there are are more women than men (sisters, aunts, grandmas, etc) tend to be warm, kind, tender, humble - qualities that are more motherly - more respectful, attentive, patient and a total gentlemen, while at the same time being more emotionally expressive, and in many cases, quite outgoing and spontaneous with their expressions while still being very humble about themselves. I notice that this doesn't tend to happen if the guy has younger sisters, but almost always happens with guys who have older sisters and more women in their family. I've met a few guys who were like this, and the common denominator was either having older sisters or growing up in a matriarchal family. These guys always pull out chairs and hold doors open for you without a second thought, and tend to be really attentive and affectionate. Seeing this video with Hobi made it clear to me right away of his more matriarchal gentlemen personality. I was struck by this particularly because I'm aware how patriarchal and hierarchial Korean society is, and how Hobi is so not like that. You can tell that Hobi's shyness, humility, discipline, positivity, warmth and outgoing expression is a result of this matriarchal upbringing, and it's extremely refreshing and attractive to watch. He's not shy to admit his fears nor that he's a coward, which is extremely rare for both a man AND an East Asian man. He's also not afraid to admit this infront of a woman, another very rare thing for an East Asian man (let's not forget this is IU, who is so iconic). His interaction with IU show how respectful, gentlemanly, friendly, comfortable and focused he is. Despite his respect for IU, he not once shows any sign of wanting to impress her by exaggerating his skills nor does he hold back on expressing his views, something that a man living in a patriarchal society would have difficulty with when interacting with a woman. This shows a great level of intellect, humility and roundedness that I found unique to men raised more by women than men. The other members of BTS are all great in their own way, but they don't have this quality that Hobi does, and this interview makes that so clear. I would love to be Hobi's friend, because I know that he would interact with me - a woman - and treat me not as a woman but truly as a person and human being. In our patriarchal society today, as a woman this is such an unburdening relief! Tom Hiddleston is another celebrity example of this matriarchal gentleman, since he grew up with two sisters.
Max, I wish you could react to Jin's collab with Nexon. He had a job interview and also presented a ppt with ideas. It'd be great to hear your opinion about his communication skills in that project 😊
@@maxpbeaumont it’s under Maple story. There are 2 episodes and 1 behind the scenes. The company Director shared on a livestream that none of their conversations including his job interview was scripted! They only gave him the schedule for the day. Jin called him during the livestream and it moved the Director to tears bc of Jin’s thoughtfulness!
IU is an amazing actress. I really would like to recommend a kdrama Hotel del Luna. You don't have to react to it or anything but if you feel like it, you should really check it out. ^^
IU somehow have some kind of connection with BTS. She is JK long time crush when he is still teen. She make unexpected collaboration with Suga to produce one of her song, and Jhope choose to promote his album on her talkshow (Jhope not do promote too much for his album, only to few programs either on youtube, radio n newsmedia)
@@jayyy957 that why i said, "teen". It refer on the past coz JK is not teen now, duh 🙄 That why i said "teen" n i didnt said until now, coz we dont know if he still crush on her until now or not.
@@dangchauanh yea he covers everybodys songs, regardless if he had a crush on her im sure he regrets publically mentioning it with the way y’all drag it. fr embarrassing
@@jayyy957 He is just as big of a fan boy as he was all those years ago, attending the concert two days in a row, with the same set list..? He clearly still loves IU as an artist as much as he did before..
If you’re taking requests, how about the actors from Extraordinary Attorney Woo like Eun Park Bin or Kang Tae Oh? The Swoon channel has a number of interviews.
Never thought I will see IU in this channel.. thank you for reacting to this, one of my favorite episode of IU's palette. If you don't mind please react to IU's palette with seventeen too. I'm curious for your insight in their communication..
J hope is an aquarius (same like me) bd just gives the whoel aquarius vibes, he had this very bright,shiny personality . Can u also talk about the episode when suga was at the palette with iu ?:). And also it would be so cool if u analyse them based on their zodiac signs and their characteristics, traits, and communication skildl that come with it :)
I love IU. She knows how famous and influential BTS is, but unlike so many other celebrities and interviews BTS has been on since they've become famous, she doesn't treat Hobi any different. She doesn't roll out the red carpet and keep showering his with flattery and celebrity status, but rather treats him as a professional with skills and thinking worthy of respect and warmth. She is an excellent, and I respect her even more than I already did.
National Service in the forces is mandatory so all artist groups have a hiatus as members go one by one into the army. Meanwhile members do solo work. Firstly its an opportunity secondly it stops some groups being forgotten. Not that ARMY would let that happen to BTS.
BTS guys are fans of IU, who is very talented and beautiful. I totally understand, that Hobi was nervous to meet her. I don't know her, but she did a good job, she was well prepared and created a good atmosphere.
I thought it was super cute that she made him shy. He could barely look at her! Lol. Hobi is also very “Aquarius energy” so I’m not sure if it’s that, or because she’s a pretty woman and famous asf.
Oh man, we need to see a video with Hoseok and Jimin, after hobis lollapalooza performance. Lots of people know the guys are all close but up until recently Hobi and Jimin have revealed they’re actually really really close. 👍🏼🙂.
I loved this. IU is amazing singer, actress and interviewer. I saw your clips of Seventeen too and subscribed. If you have time and desire, please watch Seventeen on this show with IU. it's really fun. Thank you
I love these analysis videos however I do feel like there's a cultural aspect of the communication with Korean people that doesnt translate accurately in the analysis which is completely understandable since we don't expect you to understand the depths of Korean culture right off the bat. but there is a very strong "must be polite and show good manners especially with anyone at least one year older than me" kind of mindset that's hammered into korean people's heads especially if they are famous because viewers and audience will absolutely slaughter them if they catch them slip a little. the age hierarchy is so big in Korean culture you'll see Korean kids at the early age of 4 or 5 be like "how old are you! I'm older than you!" in the playground its just so engrained in the culture. so the mindset of "I must be super polite and well mannered and show my respect so I'm not cancelled" is very much there majority of the time
I forgot about this interview. With the stream of content we’re getting these days, this interview feels like it happened years ago lol. Thanks for the communication analysis Max!
okay Max lay off the Honda..have you driven a honda cr-v 2021.. NO...have not I assume.. they are AMAZING.. the mileage on that thing.. the soft SMOOTH drive.. come on.. can't argue with that p.s luv your videos Max just wanted to clear that VERY HIGHLY IMPORTANT detail off my back
i would love to see you react to maybe a compilation of some of VicBlends shorts. idk if you know of him but amazing guy who gives free hair cuts for conversation
Thanks for this cool analysis Max! I thoroughly enjoyed it. You talked a little about shyness vs. flattery; don't they often go hand in hand? Like, what's the difference between a pure flattered response and a pure shy response? Isn't there considerable overlap? And what are the clear differences? I'm both fascinated and confused ;).
So glad you enjoyed it! That's a good question, and I guess it depends on how you interpret the word "shy". I think some people talk about feeling "shy" when they're feeling embarrassed, uncomfortable, or nervous, even. Like I think you could feel "shy" when someone who feels intimidating walks into a room. You wouldn't feel flattered, or necessarily enamored with them, but you could feel shy (nervous,/uncomfortable). I think in this situation with j-hope, there's a bit of discomfort for him in getting praised (very slight) so he may get a bit "shy". I think there's generally just more "comfort" around a flattered response. They're not necessarily uncomfortable with the praise, but they appreciate it. I Anyway, I'm clearly still working this out lol. I hope this provided some help. I appreciate the thought-provoking question.
@@maxpbeaumont thanks for thinking along. The example with the intimating person was very helpful. I guess you could say there is a more positive (flustered / cute / flattered) and a more negative form of shyness (anxious / nervous / tense) depending on whether it's a response to a positive or negative stimulus? As I was thinking about it some more, I also figured that reacting to praise with shyness probably depends on sociocultural values as well. Which basically means that shyness and flattery are related differently in Korean contexts versus, for example, in Canadian ones.
It was really fun and interesting to watch your reaction, plz react to bts and IU on the show weekly idol, in 2015, there are some interesting interactions there
I love the reaction. Could you please watch In The Soop: friendcation ep. 2, when V and his close friends, other than BTS go on vacation together, in this specific episode they have a conversation that i think is interesting to analize.

"j-hope doesn't try to act confident. He just is." Wow, as a Hobi bias who struggles with vulnerability, I really appreciated this comment, Max.
So glad!
IU is a great artist and actress. She is really big in Korea and even in the industry longer than BTS. Each and every member of BTS admired IU as an artist from their pre-debut days. So, it's obvious Hobi was a little bit shy and nervous during this whole interview. But I love every bit of this interview.. it's so beautiful to see this two artists together 🥰🥰.

Interesting. And so glad to hear:)
I appreciate how you picked up on how 'private' Hobi is, considering he can be such a bright charismatic member of BTS. But I've also thought he's one of the most professional members, who does keep his public JHope BTS life separate from his personal HoSeok life. He shares the most content on Instagram and loves to work social media so well, but it's well crafted and curated. Jack in the Box songs were his most raw self-expression so far.

Sometimes his bright loud energy may be extra efforts he puts on for camera, but his caring comes across in so many ways in how he responds (and he's super fast responding to any of their social media posts) and treats his BTS members.
Well said. A warm, truly kind soul indeed.

IU is called nation's sister and called as one of the living legends in Kpop ( along with BTS). All respect her. She started from very very poor background literally from poverty. Her life made her a good human. She is very charitable. She is/was ideal type of many idols including BTS Jungkook.
Watch IU's Palette with Shinee! It's the only one where the guests started off immediately relaxed and she didn't have to work to get them to open up. Because they all started in the business together.
Very cool. I may.
@@maxpbeaumont And the opposite episode where she is super stress and nervous cause she is interviewing her seniors. It is a really interesting contrast!
[IU's Palette] Let's be happy in June! (With Broker) Ep.13
the brightest members, i feel like, are also the most private with their feelings, hobi and jin (also jk) rarely open up in conversation about emotions and deeper/darker things
She is the queen of kpop. All her songs hit number 1 on Korean charts. The nation's sweetheart
A beautiful interview, we can see hobi's personality so clearly
These two seem so genuine and sweet! it’d be cool if you could watch iu’s episode with seventeen too, it’s my favourite
That could be cool!
J-Hope is such a kind and sweet man 🥰 İU 💜
HOBI IS THE CHARMER!!!!!!! HE'S SO ADORABLE AND IT FEELS SOOOO NICE LOOKING AT HIM!
iu fans here XD
thanks for this, its nice to see iu's communication skill and a bit of host skills analyzed by someone neutral ...
IU is someone special in South Korea music/ entertainment industry :)
I think her "position" is a bit difficult to fully explained XD in short she's S.Korean's sweetheart, like someone in comment section said : "like S.Korean princess"
if you like Seventeen too, pls react to IU's Palette with Seventeen as well, you'll understand IU's stature better in there
also Seventeen boys are 100% sincere there so yeah, you'll learn more abt them too
J-Hope was a bit starstruck by IU. She is Korea’s “It” girl and has been in the music industry longer than he has - and is older than Hobi. He was a bit awkward.
He was much more relaxed and opened up a lot on Park Sohyun’s Love Game Radio Show. Great interview!
I have been basically watching BTS content almost daily for 6 years and it often hits me that: I don't really know them at all. Like BTS share sooo much and they make so much new content for us where they are always just themselfs and honest. But, they don't really talk about their personal life at all.
The easiest subject where you can clearly see that is their home. There is literally only maybe one video of each of their homes where they lived for YEARS. And even that videos get released only by the time they have moved. For example Festa 2022. They lived in that dorm for YEARS, but we only saw it in one scene in 'Life goes on mv', and we saw that exact living room in Grammy announcment and in the Festa 2022 dinner, which showed us basically zero of their home. Like I am not saying they should show us their home or anything, but regular people post a pic of them chilling in their living room or cooking in their kitchen. But with BTS we rarely even get that. Even pictures of their dogs are super rare...
So yeah. All BTS members are super private, while at the same time making us feel like they share everything
It’s really interesting, isn’t it.
I actually love the fact they don't share that much about some aspects of their private life because in that way fans and the general public can't interfere that much and it's harder for Sasaengs for example, to find their location and stuff when it's outside their work schedule so yeah.. when it comes to private life, BTS usually shares with army more about their own feelings and thoughts, I think that's why we feel that we know a lot about them but as persons and their bond with the other members but at the same time we don't know them it all outside that circle(?) lol
We know very few details about their dating lives, their religious and political views, their past and present relationships, their sexual preference, their family, their friends and even their charity works that it's something that usually celebrities make public and BTS don't. Honestly, that makes me love them even more because they don't intend or really care to get attention and praises, they do it from the heart and that's it. Bangtan are humble kings 💜 Anyways, besides music, other content and interviews, they don't directly talk about these topics or they don't talk much in detail.
Hopefully, it stays that way! It's amazing that they have managed to keep those things a secret considering how big they are. It's amazing too, how even if we don't know some basic thing about their private live, we feel connected to them, in certain way we know a lot of thing about them as human beings, their personalities, habits, struggles, funny events or sad and special moments with the members, friends and family, inside jokes, etc.. all of that make us feel really close and have a strong connection with BTS! Army doesn't really need to know the who are their friends, who are their exes, who they are dating and more to relate to them and have this bond. 💜
@@BansheePurple exacly. And I love how Bighit also has that mindset. They never adress rumors about members personal life, they just quietly sue people who start and share them.
This Hobi and IU talk is just so wholesome. I smile through the end.
The members often talk about how kind, generous and amazing Hobi is and I take their word for it. You can clearly see from all the contents they have shared over the years what personality Hobi has. Everyone who has encountered and work with him only has positive things to say about him. He deserves to know how he affects the people around him and he deserves all these compliments. 💜
I definitely recommend watching iu’s interview with actor gong yoo, I’ve never seen such mutual respect and warmth in an interview!
I have so much to say after watching this! thank you for the reaction and analysis.
first thing, as other commenters have pointed out, iu is an extremely established artist and actress and was in the industry for 5 years longer than bts has. iu is arguably bigger than bts in Korea and she is one of the biggest artists to come out of south Korea. almost all idols have huge respect for her. iu and j-hope haven't really met before this, but they are the perfect pairing as I find them to be so similar. they're both extremely professional and good at what they do. not just singing, songwriting, and producing (and acting too, for iu!) but it is their ability to carefully craft a marketable image for themselves that is so impressive. they are both ambitious, creative, and very business-minded. iu is definitely someone worth checking out, in terms of music and communication skills. regarding your comments about her being soft-spoken -she absolutely is, and talks very politely, but she is also very blunt (think yoongi). she tells things like they are and she is not afraid to call you out on something. i think she has that in common with bts.
second thing, i'm so glad you said the comment about how j-hope is private because this is how i felt too. j-hope (along with jin, in my opinion) is one of the most private members of bts. they seem to like to put a distance between their stage persona and their personal life. as i said, j-hope is one of the most professional members of bts - he knows what he needs to do and how to do it. everything about his j-hope persona is perfectly crafted and executed. this is not to say he's being fake, but he's extremely detailed and intelligent in how he presents himself to the outside world (and that's a good thing! that's how he is able to retain his own character and to carry himself with such confidence) i often feel like a lot of armys misunderstand his persona (sunshine) to be his full self. i definitely think it is a part of him, but i also feel there's a lot he keeps to himself, and members have said he's a lot quieter and different off camera. i thoroughly believe that j-hope's kindness is the same as jung hoseok's kindness, though. there's a thing that j-hope is everyone's favourite member (among the members), and it's not hard to see why. he is a caring and calming presence, and he comes off as someone who is very strong and emotionally mature.
this is a bit unrelated but it reminded me that i also think of jin as one of the most mature members of bts. a lot of armys joke about how he acts like the youngest when he is the oldest, but i truly feel like him being the oldest is so apparent. he can joke around when he wants to, but he is always looking out for his younger members (in multiple instances, i see him defending the members: in the recent festa where they announced their chapter 2, when members joked about v's album/mixtape taking years to make, jin said "I'm sure v has a plan", and when jungkook was talking and everyone kept complimenting him on how mature his vocabulary was, jin said "let jungkook speak"). in these instances, the members were not being mean or attacking each other in any way, but jin's responses let them know "don't worry, I'm on your side", to give the members a bit more confidence when speaking. i feel like this is a very older sibling thing to do. like when your parents are nagging at you about something, and your older sibling tells your parents, "don't worry, they know what they are doing". whenever the members need help with something, he steps in and tries to fill in the gaps of what's needed. in a society where age hierarchy really matters, jin was also able to put aside his pride to support rm as a leader, which is very mature of him. he is mature enough to understand that rm is the leader that bangtan needs, and that his role is to support the team and the leader from behind the scenes when necessary. for me, j-hope and jin are very interesting individuals because of the contrast between their stage persona and their real selves.
Perhaps if you have time plz watch j hope 's lollapalooza full performance. You will be amazed of how amazing artist he is.
I’ve actually seen it and he’s incredible!!
JHope is the best performer I've ever seen he's too good and handsome
j-hope's bright personality, the very reason why us ARMYs call him 'Our Sunshine' 🌞 I'm new to this channel btw, it's pretty nice and interesting to watch videos like this.
Spot on about IU. She is great at changing the interview into a dialog and honing into a nook and crafting the right direct question but without any warning that the person might put up barriers to defend themselves. Interviewers and journalist could learn from her. Her guests always follow the change and continue to share and more than they expected. She impressed me in this role AND she's a great singer as well. Smart to develop this platform to continue her career on her terms
IU is the Queen of Korea and the queen of all our hearts
I love IU! You would really love her interview with shinee she debuted around the same time as them so they have known each other for a very long time. She was also very good friends with jonghyun.
we love IU! she has a song with Suga and also Jungkook has been a long time fan of her, so every BTS x IU interaction is priceless for us
This was so interesting, I agree with everything you said about IU and Hobi, they are adorable. Appreciated the way IU lead this interview, she made him smile, laugh, get shy and so happy. I would like you to react more of her in the future.
IU is arguably bigger than J-hope, has been in the business longer, and she's older, she's his 'seonbae' in the industry. She's doing a solo Olympic stadium concert later this month that sold out within minutes.
I’ll be honest, if I’m ever nervous in an environment and someone *notices* that and *mentions* it, like “I understand that you’re nervous.” It will definitely make me feel a little embarrassed, but extremely relieved at the same time. I’d prefer being perceived as nervous than be misunderstood as ‘not wanting to be there’. That’s what I liked about this interview as well! like you mentioned, IU being observant and expressive is such an impressive trait of hers.
IU like you can talk to her a heart to heart talk...so genuine.
i love what you've said in this video. it's very true how hobi is a pretty private person despite someone who has put out so much content and energy. IU was definitely the right person to have this conversation with Hobi because it was calm and open. we could see hobi in his embarrassed and confident moments and he got to talk about his music and what it means to him in depth with someone who did the proper research about him and is a singer themselves
also some of the members of seventeen were also on IU's Palette! that was also a great interview!
Thank you for your reaction, Max! 💜
Totally my pleasure!
When it comes to talk about music j-hope is very articulate and lets you know as much as he wants, he doesn't overshare and he is sort of protective of his work. There's another video; V is interviewing j-hope about a couple of songs he wrote and I can see similarities in the way he expresses himself with IU's interview. I love that about him.
Max the longer the video is the better, you know that right?💜
I hear you 💜💜
One of the things that really stands out about Hobi's personality particularly in this interview is his more matriarchal upbringing, and I think it explains that blurry overlap between embarrassment and flattery that you talked about. Hobi has an older sister, and unless I'm mistaken, his dad is the only male member besides him in his immediate family, making it more matriarchal. I'm not sure if you or anyone else has noticed this, but guys who have older sisters and/or grow up in a family where there are are more women than men (sisters, aunts, grandmas, etc) tend to be warm, kind, tender, humble - qualities that are more motherly - more respectful, attentive, patient and a total gentlemen, while at the same time being more emotionally expressive, and in many cases, quite outgoing and spontaneous with their expressions while still being very humble about themselves. I notice that this doesn't tend to happen if the guy has younger sisters, but almost always happens with guys who have older sisters and more women in their family. I've met a few guys who were like this, and the common denominator was either having older sisters or growing up in a matriarchal family. These guys always pull out chairs and hold doors open for you without a second thought, and tend to be really attentive and affectionate.
Seeing this video with Hobi made it clear to me right away of his more matriarchal gentlemen personality. I was struck by this particularly because I'm aware how patriarchal and hierarchial Korean society is, and how Hobi is so not like that. You can tell that Hobi's shyness, humility, discipline, positivity, warmth and outgoing expression is a result of this matriarchal upbringing, and it's extremely refreshing and attractive to watch. He's not shy to admit his fears nor that he's a coward, which is extremely rare for both a man AND an East Asian man. He's also not afraid to admit this infront of a woman, another very rare thing for an East Asian man (let's not forget this is IU, who is so iconic). His interaction with IU show how respectful, gentlemanly, friendly, comfortable and focused he is. Despite his respect for IU, he not once shows any sign of wanting to impress her by exaggerating his skills nor does he hold back on expressing his views, something that a man living in a patriarchal society would have difficulty with when interacting with a woman. This shows a great level of intellect, humility and roundedness that I found unique to men raised more by women than men. The other members of BTS are all great in their own way, but they don't have this quality that Hobi does, and this interview makes that so clear. I would love to be Hobi's friend, because I know that he would interact with me - a woman - and treat me not as a woman but truly as a person and human being. In our patriarchal society today, as a woman this is such an unburdening relief!
Tom Hiddleston is another celebrity example of this matriarchal gentleman, since he grew up with two sisters.
Max, I wish you could react to Jin's collab with Nexon. He had a job interview and also presented a ppt with ideas. It'd be great to hear your opinion about his communication skills in that project 😊
That is an excellent idea.
@@maxpbeaumont it’s under Maple story. There are 2 episodes and 1 behind the scenes. The company Director shared on a livestream that none of their conversations including his job interview was scripted! They only gave him the schedule for the day. Jin called him during the livestream and it moved the Director to tears bc of Jin’s thoughtfulness!
@@maxpbeaumont omg yes to this! i can’t wait!
IU is an amazing actress. I really would like to recommend a kdrama Hotel del Luna. You don't have to react to it or anything but if you feel like it, you should really check it out. ^^
Waiting for more IU content in the future 😋
IU somehow have some kind of connection with BTS. She is JK long time crush when he is still teen. She make unexpected collaboration with Suga to produce one of her song, and Jhope choose to promote his album on her talkshow (Jhope not do promote too much for his album, only to few programs either on youtube, radio n newsmedia)
why do u guys always have to mention jungkook when talking about iu 💀 that was 6-7 years ago
@@jayyy957 He cover her songs recently tho
@@jayyy957 that why i said, "teen". It refer on the past coz JK is not teen now, duh 🙄 That why i said "teen" n i didnt said until now, coz we dont know if he still crush on her until now or not.
@@dangchauanh yea he covers everybodys songs, regardless if he had a crush on her im sure he regrets publically mentioning it with the way y’all drag it. fr embarrassing
@@jayyy957 He is just as big of a fan boy as he was all those years ago, attending the concert two days in a row, with the same set list..? He clearly still loves IU as an artist as much as he did before..
If you’re taking requests, how about the actors from Extraordinary Attorney Woo like Eun Park Bin or Kang Tae Oh? The Swoon channel has a number of interviews.
Iu does this alot so she is obv very social and good at it
Never thought I will see IU in this channel.. thank you for reacting to this, one of my favorite episode of IU's palette. If you don't mind please react to IU's palette with seventeen too. I'm curious for your insight in their communication..
IU the queen of gentleness and humility.she is the best female solo art in korea
J hope is an aquarius (same like me) bd just gives the whoel aquarius vibes, he had this very bright,shiny personality . Can u also talk about the episode when suga was at the palette with iu ?:).
And also it would be so cool if u analyse them based on their zodiac signs and their characteristics, traits, and communication skildl that come with it :)
IU’s different as an interviewer than when she’s the interviewee, I’d love to see you react to her interviews
This is a great episode Max! It's a pleasure to listening to your analysis, very interesting and informative ❤❤ Please do Suga's live some other time!
I love IU. She knows how famous and influential BTS is, but unlike so many other celebrities and interviews BTS has been on since they've become famous, she doesn't treat Hobi any different. She doesn't roll out the red carpet and keep showering his with flattery and celebrity status, but rather treats him as a professional with skills and thinking worthy of respect and warmth. She is an excellent, and I respect her even more than I already did.
IU MY FAVOURITE PERSON EEEE
j-hope is very shy to compliments... even in BTS.
My takeaway: being excited about what you talk about makes it more captivating!
IU is and incredible actress and a premier singer. That would give some context for his initial nerves.
National Service in the forces is mandatory so all artist groups have a hiatus as members go one by one into the army. Meanwhile members do solo work. Firstly its an opportunity secondly it stops some groups being forgotten. Not that ARMY would let that happen to BTS.
wow this is very interesting conttent. This was awesome fun to watch and listen to.
BTS guys are fans of IU, who is very talented and beautiful. I totally understand, that Hobi was nervous to meet her. I don't know her, but she did a good job, she was well prepared and created a good atmosphere.
I thought it was super cute that she made him shy. He could barely look at her! Lol. Hobi is also very “Aquarius energy” so I’m not sure if it’s that, or because she’s a pretty woman and famous asf.
Essa entrevista foi maravilhosa, eu não conhecia muito bem IU , mas eu amei ela
Watch their latest run episode
I agree about him being private this is super true
OMG THE LAST EPISODE OF GOING SEVENTEEN WAS SO AWESOME YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY CHECK IT OUT...THE MEMBERS PARTICIPATED IN AN AUCTION IT WAS WILLLDDDDD
Pls react to more IU!! Shes the deepest genius artist in Kpop history
Isn't this crazy?! IU + BTS = WOW THE POWER 🤣
I LOVE IU💓💋
IU is a legend
Let's go!
Wow, that was great...I really enjoyed it
IU~~~
Oh man, we need to see a video with Hoseok and Jimin, after hobis lollapalooza performance. Lots of people know the guys are all close but up until recently Hobi and Jimin have revealed they’re actually really really close. 👍🏼🙂.
I loved this. IU is amazing singer, actress and interviewer. I saw your clips of Seventeen too and subscribed. If you have time and desire, please watch Seventeen on this show with IU. it's really fun. Thank you
100% agree ;)
Everyone loves iu!!
I loved it
I love these analysis videos however I do feel like there's a cultural aspect of the communication with Korean people that doesnt translate accurately in the analysis which is completely understandable since we don't expect you to understand the depths of Korean culture right off the bat. but there is a very strong "must be polite and show good manners especially with anyone at least one year older than me" kind of mindset that's hammered into korean people's heads especially if they are famous because viewers and audience will absolutely slaughter them if they catch them slip a little. the age hierarchy is so big in Korean culture you'll see Korean kids at the early age of 4 or 5 be like "how old are you! I'm older than you!" in the playground its just so engrained in the culture. so the mindset of "I must be super polite and well mannered and show my respect so I'm not cancelled" is very much there majority of the time
SEVENTEEN also have an interview with IU! It would be nice if you react to that video too 🥰💗
I love your reactions! I hope you can react to j-hope and Crush’s collab that’s coming out tonight!
I forgot about this interview. With the stream of content we’re getting these days, this interview feels like it happened years ago lol. Thanks for the communication analysis Max!
okay Max lay off the Honda..have you driven a honda cr-v 2021.. NO...have not I assume.. they are AMAZING.. the mileage on that thing.. the soft SMOOTH drive.. come on.. can't argue with that
p.s luv your videos Max just wanted to clear that VERY HIGHLY IMPORTANT detail off my back
Plz do more episodes of iu
i would love to see you react to maybe a compilation of some
of VicBlends shorts. idk if you know of him but amazing guy who gives free hair cuts for conversation
love that dude. so inspirational, and yes, a great conversationalist. good idea.
IU 😍😍😍😍
Thanks for this cool analysis Max! I thoroughly enjoyed it. You talked a little about shyness vs. flattery; don't they often go hand in hand? Like, what's the difference between a pure flattered response and a pure shy response? Isn't there considerable overlap? And what are the clear differences? I'm both fascinated and confused ;).
So glad you enjoyed it! That's a good question, and I guess it depends on how you interpret the word "shy". I think some people talk about feeling "shy" when they're feeling embarrassed, uncomfortable, or nervous, even. Like I think you could feel "shy" when someone who feels intimidating walks into a room. You wouldn't feel flattered, or necessarily enamored with them, but you could feel shy (nervous,/uncomfortable).
I think in this situation with j-hope, there's a bit of discomfort for him in getting praised (very slight) so he may get a bit "shy". I think there's generally just more "comfort" around a flattered response. They're not necessarily uncomfortable with the praise, but they appreciate it. I
Anyway, I'm clearly still working this out lol. I hope this provided some help. I appreciate the thought-provoking question.
@@maxpbeaumont thanks for thinking along.
The example with the intimating person was very helpful. I guess you could say there is a more positive (flustered / cute / flattered) and a more negative form of shyness (anxious / nervous / tense) depending on whether it's a response to a positive or negative stimulus?
As I was thinking about it some more, I also figured that reacting to praise with shyness probably depends on sociocultural values as well. Which basically means that shyness and flattery are related differently in Korean contexts versus, for example, in Canadian ones.
Yes that’s a good point! It probably differs based on the culture you were raised in and/or a part of.
It was really fun and interesting to watch your reaction, plz react to bts and IU on the show weekly idol, in 2015, there are some interesting interactions there
Oh cool!
Can you do more stranger things please 🙏 love your vids 💗 maybe the WIRED with Noah, Millie and Finn please 🙏
can you also react to other videos of IU? I would like to hear your comments/opinion about her.
I love the reaction. Could you please watch In The Soop: friendcation ep. 2, when V and his close friends, other than BTS go on vacation together, in this specific episode they have a conversation that i think is interesting to analize.
Interesting. Do you know the timestamps when the conversation begins and ends?
@@maxpbeaumont In episode 2 from 43:00 - 53:00, i think is the time.
How about analysis on IU and Suga Interview? 😊
Waw, my thoughts exactly~ Please do analysis IU and Suga Pallete interview 😊😊 thaaanks
