Okay so a few things. Yes this is all 7 members of BTS (3 rappers and 4 vocalists). There is also no "Justin Timberlake" in BTS, all the members are multi-talented and vital to the success of the group. Most BTS fans love and support all 7 members even if they have a favorite member, BTS is 7 and will always be 7. You might see fans say they are OT7 and that means they don't have a favorite member or it's a showing of support for all 7 members. That's what makes BTS different from a lot of boy bands from the past and that's why I would compare them to Michael Jackson before I would ever compare them to any boy band from the west in terms of performance, lyricism, and versatility. You know a group I would compare them to is TLC. The mixture of vocals and rap and socially conscious messages. This song is about BTS fear of one day losing their passion and love for music. This song came out at the beginning of the pandemic and BTS were planning a much needed break after their world tour that was supposed to take place in 2020, which had to be cancelled due to the pandemic. But they kept pushing on in 2020 and 2021 constantly putting out new content, performing online concerts, and new music despite their mental and physical exhaustion. We as fans only discovered recently that was their plan and so now that's why they are pursuing solo activities at the moment to get re-inspired again, but BTS is still very much a group and will actually have a concert in Busan South Korea in a bid to host the World Expo in 2030, and rumor has it BTS will be doing the song for the World Cup coming later this year. My song suggestions are Fake Love, Blood Sweat and Tears, and their very first song from 2013 called No More Dream.
If you can give me another 'boyband' who have been together nearly 10 years, who have won over 700 awards, who have spoken at the United Nations 3 times, who have spoken at the Whitehouse, who have been awarded diplomatic passports and are cultural ambassadors and whose official fandom is 41 million but unofficially over 90 million, maybe then we can start some sort of comparison! Looking forward to your next BTS reaction. 💜
ARMY is over 100 million - nobody knows how much - because not even cyber security companies like to call us a cyber threat anymore, like they did when we were smaller. Sad, because their numbers were quite trust worthy. :(
I wouldn't compare BTS to anyone. They are amazing artists and already legends. The amount of talent these guys have is mind-blowing! Hoping to see more BTS reactions.
Another thing I forgot to mention is yes BTS does have a leader but it's not how you think. RM is the leader of BTS but think of it like being the captain of a sports team rather than he's the best or most important member. It just means he takes more of the leadership role in the group. You definitely feel the absence of any member when they are missing due to illness or injury.
Once RM (the leader of BTS) said: "There’s 100% of success, I’ll give 50, half to ARMYs. The other half, we put like 5% each member, so that’s 35. And I give 15% to the company. So if it’s a trophy, my percentage is like 5, only an edge of the trophy. Success is not all ours I always try to realize that" I think it says a lot about them. Every single member have they individual responsibilities to keep BTS going. And everyone has different talents, influences and focus. As you keep reacting and paying attention to all they individual works you are gonna to see that. See you 💜🇧🇷
Yes, it's all of them. Uhm... there's no thing such as "the Justin Timberlake": each and very member is important. I wouldn't compare BTS to anybody, especially not to the Back Street Boys, or Nsync. However. I'd recommend to watch to BTS Live Room Festa 2021: a fast paced mix of their b-sides and title tracks through the years, so you will see their range. I have no favourite member: I love them all equally.
My bias is Jimin, the one contemporary dancing [blue hair, in this video] but, I love them all! BTS won't be BTS without all 7 talented members plus, their bond, lyricism, and art as a whole is incomparable. Extremely difficult to find genuinely beautiful souls like these days!
BTs debut 2013 I can't compared them to any boy bands in America I'm 57 never seen anyone like them. The rap they do hip hop and sing dance and alot more then any American boy band.my bia V And suga.but love all 7 .I'm a 57 year old army from american. Total love BTS and like kpop.
I completely agree. I would compare them to Michael Jackson before comparing them to any western boy band (and I like a lot of them too). It's kind of sad people see a group of guys singing and dancing and automatically stereotype them as just another boy band and we as BTS fans know that's not the case. That's like someone saying Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift or Ed Sheeran and The Weeknd are the same types of artists just because they are the same gender. I'm all for these guys discovering more about BTS and appreciating their music but if they continue down this road of trying to put them in a box I don't know if ARMY will stick around.
Agreed I’ve been here for Bel Biv DeVoe , N’sync ,Michael Jackson ,prince the list goes on there is nobody like BTS. I have never seen a group of artist that are all equally good enough to be solo artist obviously there’s gonna be more popular members but they could all be solo and be great artist.
I'm a Mom, knowing BTS from my daughter (in 2017). In my country, Indonesia, K-pop artists have so many fans but I never interested. But one day, I listened to BTS on Spotify Just One Day & Spring Day), I like them. I'm OT7, love every member equally. FYI, I never like rap music but BTS rap line are so different, they're very amazing, make me love them as much as I love the vocal line. I hope you'll react to more BTS, I suggest next is BTS Festa Room live. Keep the good work..!
So many preconceived notions that need to go out the window ASAP. First, BTS is not representative of the rest of kpop and shouldn’t be lumped in. You know how not all American artists are the same? Not all korean ones are either. Second, BTS is not comparable to nsync or NKOTB or BSB. None of those groups have broken or tied multiple Beatles and MJ records. None of those groups are the 4th most awarded artist of all time. There is also no “Justin timberlake of the group.” All 7 of them are more talented than he is and all 7 can and do stand as solo artists. Comparing them to Wu Tang was the most accurate comparison in this video. BTS is not some cute novelty act for you to joke and snicker about and not take seriously or give respect to. They are brilliant artists who write and produce some of the most complex and meaningful music I’ve ever encountered (and I’m 35 and have been studying and performing music my whole life). Did you read the captions to this song? The lyrics are gorgeous and deep and talk about the fear an artist has of losing passion for or ability to perform their art. Everything they do is intentional and done with artistic integrity. They were dancing barefoot because the choreography features contemporary dance, which is done barefoot. I hope you’ll continue to learn about BTS and I hope that continued journey comes with an open mind and an actual appreciation for the art.
@@WhalienDNA it’s because they don’t get it yet. Hopefully, they will. We have to inform them about BTS, so I hope ARMY will be patient in the process 💜
I dont understand why people have to compare BTS to anyone there nothing like America boybands there so much better. I would recommend ON Kinetic Manifesto for the next one or there 2021 Festa live.
10 out of 10. Love it. Also love that moment that you were like "this is amazing" - and it just got you. Can't wait to watch y'all go down the BTS rabbit hole. It's quite a journey!!
Thanks for the reaction! I am OT7 … each of the member is so special and unique, and super talented, hard to say I am bias towards one of the others 💜💜
Jhope the bad boy of the group 😂😂😂 also we don’t need to compare to anyone, they’re not that comparable to any American group or artist tbh they draw influence from many artists but they’re their own entity
Ohh yesss BTS, just press the subscribe button,.... A 51 years old Army from Suriname 💜💜🇸🇷🇸🇷. They are not just a typical boyband!!! 😉 Edit : Love all 7 members Borahae 💜💜🙏🏽
BTS is 7-membered group from South Korea with members aging from 25 to 29 years old. They have been around for almost 9 years now (anniversary on June 13) and they usually sing in Korean/Konglish and only have 3 songs fully in English in their whole discography of 200+ songs. They are one, if not, the most versatile artists I’ve ever heard (in my opinion). From hiphop to rnb to pop, name any genre, most likely, they have it. Comment me your type and I might recommend some songs. They produce and write their own songs, incorporate a storyline in their discography as well as different themes such as philosophy, psychology, politics, women empowerment, anti-bullying, mental health, and many more. This is why they had such an impact to the world and brought them to the UN 3 times and gave speeches as well. I can’t reiterate any more coz this might be an essay hehe. They mean a lot to me, coz they changed my life (mental health-wise). + I highly recommend reacting to their MV’s (music videos) and these videos if you want to get to know them more: - xCeleste’s “This Is BTS: Introduction to BTS” video 👉 ua-cam.com/video/3cESARetI9U/v-deo.html (the shortest and contains general information about the group however it’s from 2020) - Taylor Nakamoto’s “An Introduction to the 7 members of BTS” 👉 ua-cam.com/video/huV_yIdxZPY/v-deo.html (the best one so far, about the members, a bit lengthy but the most updated version) - Rice Squad’s “The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS” (2022 update) 👉 ua-cam.com/video/0KonKFssKnM/v-deo.html (lengthy as well but talks about the background of the group like how they were formed) + Imma just flex my boys right now and say some of their recent achievements that makes me so proud. - They are Grammy nominees for 2 times in a row (2021 and 2022) 🏆 - They topped billboard hot 100 with 3 songs last 2020 and 2 songs in 2021 (all debuted at the top) 🔥 - Their latest #1 on the billboard hot 100 were the songs “Butter” & “Permission to Dance”. Butter topped the charts for 10 weeks and stayed on the top 10 for 15 weeks 🧈 - They have 5 #1 albums (Billboard) for 3 consecutive years. 💪 - They are UNICEF Goodwill ambassadors and gave a speech in the United Nations General Assembly THRICE now and currently renewed their UNICEF project 🇺🇳 - They are Korea’s pride to the point their president appointed them as Special Presidential Envoys for Future Generations and Culture and are considered as diplomats as well (they even have the exclusive diplomatic passports) 🇰🇷 + sorry for the very long comment 🥺✌️
Thank you for giving them a chance! you may want to throw any pre conceived notions about them as a group out the window tho because they tend to shock everyone, even long time fans, when they come out with new music/concepts etc. I would definitely recommend an Introduction to BTS: The Bangtan 7 by Taylor. It gives you a brief introduction to the group as a whole then dives into each member, and don’t worry about the length because ARMY will watch anything involving bts lol I’m OT7 but Suga (pronounced shoo-ga) is my bias and V is my bias wrecker (basically second favourite). This just means that while I love all of them equally, I connect to these two the most 💜
You should always watch to the very end of the video. Also bear in mind the lyrics of BTS songs are always meaningful and should be fully taken in . This song is based on a quote from dancer Martha Graham "a dancer dies twice, once when they stop dancing and this death is more painful". The song is about BTS's fear of losing their passion for music which would be their first death 💜💜💜
My Bias is Jungkook (JK). We have personal favourites but in BTS, all 7 guys are extremely loved by fans. All of them are very talented but such humble guys.
Hey ! I’ll start off by thanking you for reacting , and giving a chance to BTS. I don’t want to repeat all the info on BTS that you will receive in your comments section, so I won’t go there, nor will I give you suggestions, cause you’ll get plenty. Yes , I am ARMY. A 55 y old ARMY, and so proud to be one. You will get many comments about how BTS doesn’t compare to any other group. They don’t, but you don’t have to take our word for it. If you decide to pursue your BTS journey, you will most definitely come to the same conclusion by yourselves. I guarantee it. I’ve just discovered your channel, so I don’t know what type of music you guys like, but I can assure you, you will find something to your liking in their discography ,because they’ve tapped into lots of genres of music ( except for country 😉). I’m curious to see where you guys go from here. Should you continue your BTS journey, ARMY will follow . Welcome to our purple world 💜 Oh, please finish watching their videos till the end. Sometimes there’s more after the screen goes black, and never forget the English captions.
They do have a leader (@2:30), but theres no JT of the group. They don't move like that. I don't have a favorite because each offer unique characteristics/qualities. They're not really comparable to anyone. I think that's why so many people love them. They are inspired by old school hip hop artists because the rappers grew up listening to them. MJ is also a big inspiration for them. But I don't think you can compare them to US groups at all. And yes, they all were on the track. There's 4 vocalists & 3 rappers.
If you guys can tell each member of NSYNC or BACK STREET BOYS or any boy bands that can rap, dance, and sing like BTS. Then I'll agree with you about BTS being another boy band!!!!
Ugh...hype 🎵 🎶 BTS can do everything; dance, sing, act. They write their own music, produce own melodies, produce their own music, produce other's music. Very rare combinations which is why they are compared to the Beatles. They are Originals. There is no group on their level. For other kpop groups Shinee, Big Bang, BTOB...
U can react to taylor nakamoto introduction its the best to know more about the members also please don't compare them to any pop artist because they are unique abd have their own style and talented more than u think
BTS make most other boy bands look lacking. I love Nsyc, Back street boys, New Edition, New Kids. Love them! But none of them can measure up to BTS. BTS are on a whole different level. The more that you see of them you will get it. They started out as a hip-hop group and have evolved into the biggest group of all time. They have broken records held by The Beatles, Michael Jackson, and Celine Deon. Mic Drop Steve Aoki remix has over a BILLION views. They have 3 all English songs. Most of their songs have a mix of Korean and English. So ALWAYS have the captions on. These 7 guys fought like HELL to get to where they are. The fans are called ARMY, and trust me when I say the BTS ARMY is a force that will never fail to support the people that love them. You keep watching BTS and you will see.
These guys constantly bring it. Buckle your seat belt and enjoy the ride. There is A LOT to see. Just know there is A BTS rabbit hole and once you fall into it, you will not be able to get out.💜
They are from South Korea. The KPOP industry in South Korea is tough. The company that they are with Bighit was a very small fish in a HUGE pond. But they built them up with genius marketing. BTS put Bighit into a whole other level. BTS brings South Korea billions of dollars in tourism, merchandise, and cultural interest. They have also spoken at the United Nations twice, and been to the White House. Covers of Time, Forbes magazines. They have a great message.
BLACK SWAN - contains meaningful, DEEP lyircs. Such an underrated song. It is inspired by the quote “A dancer dies twice - once when they stop dancing, and this first death is the more painful." by Martha Graham. This song talks about losing one’s passion. Artists don’t talk about that often. It dives deep into the group's fears as artists. BTS contends that the day that music no longer fills them with the same passionate fire as before, or even if there came a day when they stopped creating music - what they feel is their life's purpose - it would feel like death. Two Filipino songwriters, August Rigo and Vince Nantes, composed and wrote lyrics for “Black Swan,” alongside BTS leader RM, multiawarded producer Pdogg and rapper Clyde Kelly. More about it here: ua-cam.com/video/PRdSXnBqkak/v-deo.html
My favorite BTS member is Jungkook. He is the main singer and the center of BTS. He is called the Golden Maknae because he is the youngest and he is good at everything (singing, dancing, visuals, rapping, drawing, painting, sports). He is the most popular member of the group.
You never choose a bias ☺️ we always love all of them soo much they are the most special humble amazing People in the wholee world 💜 I am 45 years old and I am over 7 years army 💜👍
So I'd say maybe listen to some solo works from the members to get a small idea of why there is no Justin in BTS, they are all Varsity plays that came together to make a elite group. Singularity by V from BTS, Epiphany by Jin from BTS, Joke by RM from BTS, Arson by J-Hope from BTS, Stay alive by Jungkook and produced by Suga from BTS,Daechwita by Suga from BTS and Serendipity by Jimin from BTS. Also louder than bombs,house of cards your eyes tell and Ugh from BTS but honestly I could add so many more.
Jimin, the solo dancer here, is a trained contemporary dancer (among several other genre of dance). Jimin danced in bare feet because contemporary dance is done bare foot; the other members also danced bare foot out of respect to Jimin and the genre itself. Btw, there IS NO comparison to any other group because their artistry encompasses virtually ALL genre of music. They are also extremely talented each on their own.
As you can see that BTS is different from all of those groups you mentioned. Please don’t compare them to anyone else. They are who they are, they will not fit into any one person, group or genre. They are multi talented people and no one comes close to be compared to them.
Thank you for reacting to BTS. Like others I highly recommend you react to intro to the 7 members by Taylor. Don't be overwhelmed, it's a little long but we have no problem watching it with you
@@WhalienDNA its okay people always try to compare things because we learn things usually by comparison, they just don't know yet of their talents, etc...we can change their minds, personally, I kinda love it when they start by a reaction to their super pop English songs because then the contrast with their actual music will hit them harder lmao
First, thank you for your reaction. Second: Answering your question: Once I hear someone saying that BTS is something like have Eminem, Michael Jackson and Britney Spears on stage at the same time, and I kinda agree with that. Every single member add to the group in a different way, and I'm not saying this just like a fan but also as an Art Student, the same happens when we talk about they brotherhood. That is also Why I can not choose a favorite one in the group, but my bias is RM. I relate a lot with him and also I admire him, he is the leader, a amenzing rapper, is very smart, a good song writer, has developed his sing and dance a lot. I would like to invite you to react to the introduction to BTS by XCelest. Love from Brazil 🇧🇷💜
There is a saying in ARMY that, one finds BTS when you need them the most. Yes, you really need to react to the Introduction to BTS and then you will see what they stand for. There song MAGIC SHOP is what got me into BTS and through depression and the loss of my husband to cancer. It has a lot of meaning to ARMY. If you give honest real reactions to them you will see a large explosion of people joining your channel. I purple you!! ARMY...age 54. 💜💜💜💜
KIM TAEHYUNG A.K.A. "V " , THE MOST LOVED BTS MEMBER, THE MOST HANDSOME MAN IN THE WORLD , MULTI TALENTED V , IDOL OF IDOLS... MOST SEARCH BTS MEMBER💜💜💜 PLEASE TRY TO REACT TO V's Solos, SINGULARITY AND STIGMA... HE HAS MANY SOLO SONGS.... ACTUALLY ALL OF THEM HAS...
j-hope is my bias but, as most ARMYs in the comments have echoed, all ARMYs are "OT7." We love them all and our "favorite" just comes down to just a stylistic preference or a relatability or some special connection. j-hope is incredibly versatile and talented and he has a great energy, lot of confidence (but it's a very sefl-accepting and kind brand of confidence) and he's just cool. But there's no "Justin Timberlake" of the group. They all have their roles and they all are a vital part of the group's function and success. There's no Joey Fatone just swaying in the back. You'll come to see that, I'm sure. There is a leader though. Kim Namjoon aka RM is the Leader of the group. It's more of a Team Captain type role than a frontman role. j-hope is the (unofficial) second leader according to RM and the rest of the team.
My favorite is Jungkook or Jk as a lot call him. He’s called the golden maknae, maknae meaning the youngest and golden because he is good at everything. He is the Main Vocalist, he’s in the dance line which means he’s one of the best dancers in the group, and he can rap as well.
Okay so a few things. Yes this is all 7 members of BTS (3 rappers and 4 vocalists). There is also no "Justin Timberlake" in BTS, all the members are multi-talented and vital to the success of the group.

My song suggestions are Fake Love, Blood Sweat and Tears, and their very first song from 2013 called No More Dream.
well explained..
Very well said. (OT7 = One True 7)
Well said.
💜
Well said,, there should not be a comparison one member to other member between BTS. No "justin timberlake" that shines himself within the group.
If you can give me another 'boyband' who have been together nearly 10 years, who have won over 700 awards, who have spoken at the United Nations 3 times, who have spoken at the Whitehouse, who have been awarded diplomatic passports and are cultural ambassadors and whose official fandom is 41 million but unofficially over 90 million, maybe then we can start some sort of comparison! Looking forward to your next BTS reaction. 💜
Preach!!
Very well put thank you
Say it loud...!
ARMY is over 100 million - nobody knows how much - because not even cyber security companies like to call us a cyber threat anymore, like they did when we were smaller. Sad, because their numbers were quite trust worthy. :(
Gets to Hobi’s verse: “He must be the bad boy of the group.”
When in reality he is a big ball of sunshine
I wouldn't compare BTS to anyone. They are amazing artists and already legends. The amount of talent these guys have is mind-blowing! Hoping to see more BTS reactions.

They are one of a kind and a once in a lifetime group you can’t compare. 💜

Facts
💯
Once RM (the leader of BTS) said: "There’s 100% of success, I’ll give 50, half to ARMYs. The other half, we put like 5% each member, so that’s 35. And I give 15% to the company. So if it’s a trophy, my percentage is like 5, only an edge of the trophy. Success is not all ours I always try to realize that" I think it says a lot about them.
Every single member have they individual responsibilities to keep BTS going. And everyone has different talents, influences and focus. As you keep reacting and paying attention to all they individual works you are gonna to see that.
See you 💜🇧🇷
And that keeps them always grounded. What a kind heart they have. That's why they are so blessed with love and success. 💜💜💜
Yes, it's all of them. Uhm... there's no thing such as "the Justin Timberlake": each and very member is important. I wouldn't compare BTS to anybody, especially not to the Back Street Boys, or Nsync. However. I'd recommend to watch to BTS Live Room Festa 2021: a fast paced mix of their b-sides and title tracks through the years, so you will see their range. I have no favourite member: I love them all equally.
I have been an army since 2013 since their pre debut days there not for teens they are for all ages. I'm 31and been still a fan.
And many men of all ages as well. Also, the largest percentage of fans are over the age of 30.
You guys need to watch Taylor's introduction to these guys ASAP. so you can learn about them and how they came to be
I know right, BTS fans ages range from young kids to the elderly. It's a beautiful fandom.
Yes, please! At least so that you’ve got names to use on your reactions.
Here’s the link: ua-cam.com/video/huV_yIdxZPY/v-deo.html
THIS! ASAP! It's needed.
will do thanks

American boy bands could never compare to bts - they only wish
My bias is Jimin, the one contemporary dancing [blue hair, in this video] but, I love them all! BTS won't be BTS without all 7 talented members plus, their bond, lyricism, and art as a whole is incomparable. Extremely difficult to find genuinely beautiful souls like these days!
I've never heard *NSYNC* or any other "boy band" do anything remotely close to what BTS can do lol.

BTS is 7-membered group from South Korea with members aging from 25 to 29 years old. They have been around for almost 9 years now (anniversary on June 13) and they usually sing in Korean/Konglish and only have 3 songs fully in English in their whole discography of 200+ songs.

They produce and write their own songs, incorporate a storyline in their discography as well as different themes such as philosophy, psychology, politics, women empowerment, anti-bullying, mental health, and many more. This is why they had such an impact to the world and brought them to the UN 3 times and gave speeches as well. I can’t reiterate any more coz this might be an essay hehe. They mean a lot to me, coz they changed my life (mental health-wise).
+ I highly recommend reacting to their MV’s (music videos) and these videos if you want to get to know them more:
- xCeleste’s “This Is BTS: Introduction to BTS” video 👉 ua-cam.com/video/3cESARetI9U/v-deo.html (the shortest and contains general information about the group however it’s from 2020)
- Taylor Nakamoto’s “An Introduction to the 7 members of BTS” 👉 ua-cam.com/video/huV_yIdxZPY/v-deo.html (the best one so far, about the members, a bit lengthy but the most updated version)
- Rice Squad’s “The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS” (2022 update) 👉 ua-cam.com/video/0KonKFssKnM/v-deo.html (lengthy as well but talks about the background of the group like how they were formed)
+ Imma just flex my boys right now and say some of their recent achievements that makes me so proud.
- They are Grammy nominees for 2 times in a row (2021 and 2022) 🏆
- They topped billboard hot 100 with 3 songs last 2020 and 2 songs in 2021 (all debuted at the top) 🔥
- Their latest #1 on the billboard hot 100 were the songs “Butter” & “Permission to Dance”. Butter topped the charts for 10 weeks and stayed on the top 10 for 15 weeks 🧈
- They have 5 #1 albums (Billboard) for 3 consecutive years. 💪
- They are UNICEF Goodwill ambassadors and gave a speech in the United Nations General Assembly THRICE now and currently renewed their UNICEF project 🇺🇳
- They are Korea’s pride to the point their president appointed them as Special Presidential Envoys for Future Generations and Culture and are considered as diplomats as well (they even have the exclusive diplomatic passports) 🇰🇷
+ sorry for the very long comment 🥺✌️
Thank you for giving them a chance! you may want to throw any pre conceived notions about them as a group out the window tho because they tend to shock everyone, even long time fans, when they come out with new music/concepts etc.
I would definitely recommend an Introduction to BTS: The Bangtan 7 by Taylor. It gives you a brief introduction to the group as a whole then dives into each member, and don’t worry about the length because ARMY will watch anything involving bts lol
I’m OT7 but Suga (pronounced shoo-ga) is my bias and V is my bias wrecker (basically second favourite). This just means that while I love all of them equally, I connect to these two the most 💜
Please..... Do not compare BTS with nobody... BTS is best of the best, they don't need to bee compare with....
You should always watch to the very end of the video. Also bear in mind the lyrics of BTS songs are always meaningful and should be fully taken in . This song is based on a quote from dancer Martha Graham "a dancer dies twice, once when they stop dancing and this death is more painful". The song is about BTS's fear of losing their passion for music which would be their first death 💜💜💜
My Bias is Jungkook (JK).
We have personal favourites but in BTS, all 7 guys are extremely loved by fans. All of them are very talented but such humble guys.
They’re incomparable and adore all 7 of them!
Hey ! I’ll start off by thanking you for reacting , and giving a chance to BTS. I don’t want to repeat all the info on BTS that you will receive in your comments section, so I won’t go there, nor will I give you suggestions, cause you’ll get plenty. Yes , I am ARMY. A 55 y old ARMY, and so proud to be one. You will get many comments about how BTS doesn’t compare to any other group. They don’t, but you don’t have to take our word for it. If you decide to pursue your BTS journey, you will most definitely come to the same conclusion by yourselves. I guarantee it. I’ve just discovered your channel, so I don’t know what type of music you guys like, but I can assure you, you will find something to your liking in their discography ,because they’ve tapped into lots of genres of music ( except for country 😉). I’m curious to see where you guys go from here. Should you continue your BTS journey, ARMY will follow . Welcome to our purple world 💜 Oh, please finish watching their videos till the end. Sometimes there’s more after the screen goes black, and never forget the English captions.
Don’t compare the members to anyone!
They do have a leader (@2:30), but theres no JT of the group. They don't move like that. I don't have a favorite because each offer unique characteristics/qualities. They're not really comparable to anyone. I think that's why so many people love them. They are inspired by old school hip hop artists because the rappers grew up listening to them. MJ is also a big inspiration for them. But I don't think you can compare them to US groups at all. And yes, they all were on the track. There's 4 vocalists & 3 rappers.
YESS I WAS WAITING FOR THIS
No American band even comes close . They are 7 Timberlakes
React to one of their latest song.
- Bts RUN BTS- all in big letters so youtube don't get confused with one of their older song called - Run-
Will do 👍
If you guys can tell each member of NSYNC or BACK STREET BOYS or any boy bands that can rap, dance, and sing like BTS. Then I'll agree with you about BTS being another boy band!!!!
Let’s go BTS 🔥🔥🔥
Ugh...hype 🎵 🎶
BTS can do everything; dance, sing, act. They write their own music, produce own melodies, produce their own music, produce other's music. Very rare combinations which is why they are compared to the Beatles. They are Originals. There is no group on their level. For other kpop groups Shinee, Big Bang, BTOB...
U can react to taylor nakamoto introduction its the best to know more about the members also please don't compare them to any pop artist because they are unique abd have their own style and talented more than u think
BTS the best. Black Swan is ART 💜
Hey y'all I'm in Vegas..😊 there's nobody like BTS..59yo Army here💜💜
There are so many. Fake love, boy with luv feat halsey, mic drop, dna, danger, dynamite, butter, yet to come, for youth
Only BTS!! No necesitan nada mas!!!
Why do you want to compare them. Just appreciate the whole effect, singing, dancing and rap. It’s an
Experience
BTS make most other boy bands look lacking. I love Nsyc, Back street boys, New Edition, New Kids. Love them! But none of them can measure up to BTS. BTS are on a whole different level. The more that you see of them you will get it. They started out as a hip-hop group and have evolved into the biggest group of all time. They have broken records held by The Beatles, Michael Jackson, and Celine Deon. Mic Drop Steve Aoki remix has over a BILLION views. They have 3 all English songs. Most of their songs have a mix of Korean and English. So ALWAYS have the captions on. These 7 guys fought like HELL to get to where they are. The fans are called ARMY, and trust me when I say the BTS ARMY is a force that will never fail to support the people that love them. You keep watching BTS and you will see.
These guys constantly bring it. Buckle your seat belt and enjoy the ride. There is A LOT to see. Just know there is A BTS rabbit hole and once you fall into it, you will not be able to get out.💜
They are from South Korea. The KPOP industry in South Korea is tough. The company that they are with Bighit was a very small fish in a HUGE pond. But they built them up with genius marketing. BTS put Bighit into a whole other level. BTS brings South Korea billions of dollars in tourism, merchandise, and cultural interest. They have also spoken at the United Nations twice, and been to the White House. Covers of Time, Forbes magazines. They have a great message.
@@stephaniebryant9055 great commentary...they spoke at the U.N. 3 times..Borahae 💜
6:28 That’s one of the main dancer he did contemporary dance in Highschool and was the top student at his school ☝️
BTS is BTS...all of them is talented but my fave is jungkook the main vocalist and lead dancer but i love them all
All of them 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I don't have a favorite. But also, it's Jungkook [정국]. *winking emoji*
BLACK SWAN - contains meaningful, DEEP lyircs. Such an underrated song. It is inspired by the quote “A dancer dies twice - once when they stop dancing, and this first death is the more painful." by Martha Graham. This song talks about losing one’s passion. Artists don’t talk about that often. It dives deep into the group's fears as artists. BTS contends that the day that music no longer fills them with the same passionate fire as before, or even if there came a day when they stopped creating music - what they feel is their life's purpose - it would feel like death. Two Filipino songwriters, August Rigo and Vince Nantes, composed and wrote lyrics for “Black Swan,” alongside BTS leader RM, multiawarded producer Pdogg and rapper Clyde Kelly. More about it here: ua-cam.com/video/PRdSXnBqkak/v-deo.html
Jungkook 💜💜💜💜💜💜🥺
Well. I'm 51 yo army, there're 2 options. Watch to BTS introduction first or just jump i n to MMA 2019..
they legitttt like fr, if u love hip hop, and lyrics u will love them
BTS💜💜💜
My favourite is J-hope. He is the dance leader and main dancer also one of the rapper but he can sing too
My favorite BTS member is Jungkook. He is the main singer and the center of BTS. He is called the Golden Maknae because he is the youngest and he is good at everything (singing, dancing, visuals, rapping, drawing, painting, sports). He is the most popular member of the group.
You never choose a bias ☺️ we always love all of them soo much they are the most special humble amazing People in the wholee world 💜 I am 45 years old and I am over 7 years army 💜👍
My favorite is Jimin.. love his voice and he is one of the best dancers you should see him dance!!
im glad u like them!
Why this need to compare? Just enjoy something new. You can’t put them in a box. They can do it all. 💜
my favorite is jungkook/jk 👍🏽
They all are my bias but bias wrecker is V( Kim taehyung)
Armies purple💜 BTS
What do they mean by "our side"? What side? BTS is worldwide.
So I'd say maybe listen to some solo works from the members to get a small idea of why there is no Justin in BTS, they are all Varsity plays that came together to make a elite group. Singularity by V from BTS, Epiphany by Jin from BTS, Joke by RM from BTS, Arson by J-Hope from BTS, Stay alive by Jungkook and produced by Suga from BTS,Daechwita by Suga from BTS and Serendipity by Jimin from BTS. Also louder than bombs,house of cards your eyes tell and Ugh from BTS but honestly I could add so many more.
Non of the boys remind me of any other artists. They are all amazing individually and as a group they compliment each other.
Jimin, the solo dancer here, is a trained contemporary dancer (among several other genre of dance). Jimin danced in bare feet because contemporary dance is done bare foot; the other members also danced bare foot out of respect to Jimin and the genre itself.
Btw, there IS NO comparison to any other group because their artistry encompasses virtually ALL genre of music. They are also extremely talented each on their own.
My fave is all of them.
All 7 are amazing...all are special and vital to success (yes i have my bias Jin, other 6 guys are bias wrecers💜)
Favorite? Since there are seven members and also seven days in a week, I change favorite member every day.
As you can see that BTS is different from all of those groups you mentioned. Please don’t compare them to anyone else. They are who they are, they will not fit into any one person, group or genre. They are multi talented people and no one comes close to be compared to them.
My favorite is Jimin 💜 he is the lead vocalist and the main dancer in the group
He so talented and he has angelic voice !
And ofc I love them all.
The other K-pop are not similar at anyway to BTS …BTS give message through their songs and they create by themselves
Thank you for reacting to BTS. Like others I highly recommend you react to intro to the 7 members by Taylor. Don't be overwhelmed, it's a little long but we have no problem watching it with you
OT7-I can't leave one out. They All have a special place in my heart. I Love and Respect All of them. They're my Strength, Comfort and Happiness. 💜🤟💯
Not like nsync or nkotb. No Justin Timberlake. This is the 2nd reaction of yours I've watched and ya'll say some really stupid things 😐
They really do. It’s like they read a manual of “dumbest and most frustrating comments to make about BTS”
100000%
@@WhalienDNA its okay people always try to compare things because we learn things usually by comparison, they just don't know yet of their talents, etc...we can change their minds, personally, I kinda love it when they start by a reaction to their super pop English songs because then the contrast with their actual music will hit them harder lmao
@@WhalienDNA I accidentally replied to u instead of the original comment, cool that ur a teacher tho
I love all the 7 member bts💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Jungkook is my favorite but I love all of them. He is the main singer and the center
Please...... Do not compare BTS....
I dont know if you call this dry humor but i like your type of humor. i cant stop smiling. gdi
love it
First, thank you for your reaction. Second: Answering your question: Once I hear someone saying that BTS is something like have Eminem, Michael Jackson and Britney Spears on stage at the same time, and I kinda agree with that.
Every single member add to the group in a different way, and I'm not saying this just like a fan but also as an Art Student, the same happens when we talk about they brotherhood.
That is also Why I can not choose a favorite one in the group, but my bias is RM. I relate a lot with him and also I admire him, he is the leader, a amenzing rapper, is very smart, a good song writer, has developed his sing and dance a lot.
I would like to invite you to react to the introduction to BTS by XCelest.
Love from Brazil 🇧🇷💜
BTS IS A SEVEN MEMBER GROUP, 3 RAPPERS AND 4 VOCALIST....
RAPPERS: RM, SUGA, J - HOPE
VOCALIST: JIN, JIMIN , V and JK
Amazing reaction
BTS 🔥💜💜💜💜💜💜
My IS JK ❤
These guys hate when people compare them to people it's pressuring to them they are BTS they wanna be the bts of the 21st century.
My favorite is worldwide handsome jin💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
There is a saying in ARMY that, one finds BTS when you need them the most. Yes, you really need to react to the Introduction to BTS and then you will see what they stand for. There song MAGIC SHOP is what got me into BTS and through depression and the loss of my husband to cancer. It has a lot of meaning to ARMY. If you give honest real reactions to them you will see a large explosion of people joining your channel. I purple you!! ARMY...age 54. 💜💜💜💜
New Edition from the side of Color🙃
KIM TAEHYUNG A.K.A. "V " , THE MOST LOVED BTS MEMBER, THE MOST HANDSOME MAN IN THE WORLD , MULTI TALENTED V , IDOL OF IDOLS... MOST SEARCH BTS MEMBER💜💜💜 PLEASE TRY TO REACT TO V's Solos, SINGULARITY AND STIGMA... HE HAS MANY SOLO SONGS.... ACTUALLY ALL OF THEM HAS...
Thank you for reacting more BTS!
My favorite member is Suga aka Yoongi aka Agust D~
I hope to see more like this in the future :)
If I wanna pick just one member my favorite would be JK (Jungkook) but I love all of them. They are all amazing talented people.
My favorite Jimin♥️👑
Could you react to Danger it’s one of their older songs it’s more of a Hip Hop song
danger sounds more rock-ish tho
@@alessiazuppardi8849 it's both....
OT7💜
j-hope is my bias but, as most ARMYs in the comments have echoed, all ARMYs are "OT7." We love them all and our "favorite" just comes down to just a stylistic preference or a relatability or some special connection. j-hope is incredibly versatile and talented and he has a great energy, lot of confidence (but it's a very sefl-accepting and kind brand of confidence) and he's just cool. But there's no "Justin Timberlake" of the group. They all have their roles and they all are a vital part of the group's function and success. There's no Joey Fatone just swaying in the back. You'll come to see that, I'm sure. There is a leader though. Kim Namjoon aka RM is the Leader of the group. It's more of a Team Captain type role than a frontman role. j-hope is the (unofficial) second leader according to RM and the rest of the team.
My favorite is Jungkook or Jk as a lot call him. He’s called the golden maknae, maknae meaning the youngest and golden because he is good at everything. He is the Main Vocalist, he’s in the dance line which means he’s one of the best dancers in the group, and he can rap as well.
All 7 are GREAT! My favorite is J-hope 💜
I love them all but Jimin is my favorite. He is the one who was doing the contemporary dance and vocals, mostly during the parts he was dancing.
You can't compare BTS to anyone they have their own style and they have songs of every genre you Don't even need to go anywhere
