This is one of my favorites songs ever. My disease is not being able to rest my mind. Like, I am ALWAYS thinking critically, obsessed about details, remembering things and I have a hard time to stop and concentrating on just breathe/do nothing/sleep. Don't know if anyone will understand but that's one of the causes of my insomnia since I was a child and still struggle with this at 29. I hope all of us break free from our diseases and be happy someday. 💜
I struggle with that too and the hard part for me is when I am deep in it that it is hard to realize that I am in so deep. I don't know if this will help but someone once told me that if you are too caught up in your thoughts, try to focus on your senses to bring you back to the present. What are you physically touching? What are you smelling and tasting? What bits of white noise can you hear?
I can totally relate with you.. this is my struggle every single day.. am 35 and still has a long way to try to have a better mindset.. lets keep trying..
Someone once said to me ‘when you are having conversations with yourself, you are trying to heal a past trauma.’ Was an interesting thing to think about.
My disease is forgetting to love myself exactly how I am in this exact moment. I have always had this “image” in my head of who I want to be. While I don’t think my disease is wanting to better myself, I do think my disease comes into play when I forget that I am still valuable while working on myself. I recently heard an analogy about this. A fruit tree is still valuable in its off season. Although, during it’s off season it isn’t at it’s prime producing fruit, it still has so much value. It’s a place for kids to explore & use their imagination, it provides shade on a sunny day, & it provides inspiration for an artist to paint a picture. This analogy helps me to remember that even though I am not where I want to be, I still have so much to offer & I hope that it may help someone else that suffers from this ‘disease.’ Let’s work on ourselves not to love ourselves, but BECAUSE we love ourselves. As always, much love. 💜
Imagine what sapling you would think about a mighty tree like you, even if you are in your off season of producing fruit. You are still bringing oxygen and sweet life to this world. 💜
Sometimes we forget how valuable we are to others! We use to be too rigid with ourselves... We do the same with things, always wanting something better and suffering if don't have it instead of praising and having fun with what we already have. Accept and love yourself the way you are and always work on being a better. person, we are changing every single day. Ah! I forgot the main thing! Your words show you are a valuable person, specially the last ones, because they say they were written to help other people 💜💜💜
Every time I hear this song I am reminded of the Vegas concert 💜 My husband recorded a video of the whole song, so glad he was there I didn’t stop dancing long enough to get anything on camera lol.
I'll never forget the first time I went through this album in my car, no lyrics just vibes. This CD is underrated and idk why because it has NOTHING but great songs on it. And so so so much meaning during a time when we were so blessed to have these guys giving us so much of themselves
Roscoe...the zero & 100 is perfectly normal for an empath. I call it "going into my cave". When I stop, I go into my cave to do absolutely nothing. And I mean nothing. No phone calls, no contact with the public, friends, etc. It's because empaths have to recharge. We use so much energy doing, listening, absorbing, that we deplete ourselves & just kinda go away for a bit. 💜
Brass Tracks is Ivan Jackson's company out of New York. They also co-wrote and produced J-Hope's MORE. Randy Runyon is the guitarist on MORE and he is currently in Chicago. Could Hobi have a live band for Lolla? I think that group also contributed to Dionysus.
Dis-ease got me through the first year of the pandemic. That incredible build, that screaming build-up. It was my favorite song of 2020. In my house so much shit went down in 2020 that had nothing to do with the pandemic that being stuck at home was actually a relief. Don't think for a minute we had nothing to do. My challenges were different from BTS's, but this song got me through it all anyway.
Regarding diseases, I've got so many diagnoses there's no way in hell I'm gonna put any effort into finding some personality issue on top of it all. Not saying I don't have any. And for the record, I'm still getting over covid so I'm going miss the memorial service for my aunt, uncle, and cousin - the whole family - who all died of separate diseases within a few months of each other this year, because I don't want to risk getting my 98 year old grandmother sick. Fortunately my other uncle, who lost his own son to a drug overdose just a few weeks ago, will be recording it. I don't know how he's going to hold himself together. There are definitely plenty of diseases to go around. I seem to have a little anger going around today. Sorry about that.
12:12 Kool-Aid man!!! @Roscoe you crack me up.. this is one of my favs the beat, the hiphop wikiwiki in the backing vocals, Jimin's bridge, CHEF'S KISS💜
A (not so) quick word about the clever wordplay in RM's verse: The first line is probably "My mind needs a vacation" not "your mind needs a vacation". The absence of a pronoun allows for the line to have double or even triple meanings which makes the language a creative paradise for rappers. Pronouns and articles are not required in Korean, and often they are dropped in everyday speech/writing. For example, the ARMY greeting 'borahae' does NOT mean "I purple you". It literally just means "do purple." If you are looking at and pointing to someone and you say "borahae!" then give them a hug, that person knows you mean "naneun, neoreul borahae!" (literally 'As for me, to you purple is being done"). The pronouns can be dropped in Korean as long as context is understood. Anyway, it fits better with the next line "just do work as work" - that's the word-for word translation. It actually means "I just get the job done." It could also be a command: "just get the job done!" Next we have the most genius line of the whole song: "I'm ill Yeah I'm work itself A friend called rest? Oh I never liked him (Rest was never something I liked to do)" There's a lot going on there. He's playing with the English word "ill" and the Korean word "일" which is pronounced - you guessed it - "ill". "일" can mean 'job', 'work' and the number '1'. It can also mean "performance". In English, "ill' means "sick' but it's also slang for being great or the best. This means the first line can be "I'm the best" or "I'm sick" The second part can mean "I'm the definition of Number One" or "I'm the job itself/ I'm work itself" or even "I'm the performance itself" So this line could be a flex about being the best because he never rests. Or... he can be lamenting about how sick he feels from having a life that's nothing but work/performance, who never gave himself a break to rest. Both meanings are conveyed in the lines. Pure genius, and an example of why Korean is a perfect language for poetry, song, and rap lyrics. Then there is the line "this glass-like disease hits your head". A better translation would be "Like glass, disease beats you/me over the head (knocks you/me out)". Again, because Korean does not require the use of pronouns, he could be talking in general or about himself specifically. RM often chooses to leave pronouns out, which makes his verses open to interpretation. This line is also a play on words because "병 (pronounced pyong)" means both 'disease' and 'glass bottle'.
I don’t like to bother people so I don’t ask for help when I really should. I also feel my biggest flaw is laziness. My dad once said my little sister and I needed to be shaken up in a jar so she could relax a little and not worry so much and I could be more industrious. 😆 Miss his little bits of wisdom.
I totally understand about not wanting to bother people with your own problems. I'm also not good at asking for help when I need it. But I'm trying to be better. I'm trying to remember that there are people who will be there for me when I need them. But it's not always easy. Just remember that you need to do what is right for you. Borahae 💜
I was this way too but life decided to teach me not to be. I had a very awful arthrosis crisis and had to use crutches. I felt awful, humiliated when people offered to help me carrying things, i.e. One day I thought... I love to help people, it makes me happy so... Why do I refuse it? Why do I deny this pleasure to others? I began to see the help with my own eyes, I mean, putting the focus not in me but in the person who wanted to be helpful. I don't know if I expressed me correctly, English is not my native language, but I felt my experience (I'm 65) could be useful in this case... Or at least I hope so 💜💜💜💜
This song jumped out at me when the album BE was released by BTS. I think it's a fantastic song. I had not taken a deep dive into the lyrics yet = so I was glad to review them with you. As always, the lyrics are perfect and very meaningful. Thanks for a great video Roscoe!
Its funny you thought it might be the first song you don't get when, just this week, I was trying to think of a bts song that is beloved by ALL army and Dis-ease was the song I thought of. Literally never heard any criticism of it. Its soooo good.
Dis-ease supposed to be part of Jack-in-the-box, but they liked it for the BE album. The word-play of "disease" (COVID) and "dis-ease" ( uneasy because they can't work during the pandemic).
This is probably my favorite song off the BE album. My disease is probably my fear of change. I know change has to happen for there to be growth and it’s inevitable but it’s something I’ve always struggled with.
I don't think I've ever clicked a video so fast 🤣 Roscoe, this song SPEAKS to me. Hobi talked about it in an interview and I totally understood. I've got the same personality tendency to go full throttle. It's actually because of my physical conditions that I have been forced to learn balance and... Ugh! It's so difficult!! Hobi found out about his dis-ease during the pandemic height, when we were all cooped up inside and had to face our limitations. I find that very relatable.
I have many "diseases" but one that can really make me go into a downward spiral is thinking that I have been on this planet for almost 30 years and I have "nothing" to show for it...like, nothing to contribute, or being painfully average (partially because I was that "gifted child" and if you know, you know...) and these thoughts make me feel useless. But I have been working on this and remind myself that there is nothing wrong with being "average" and that doing my best with what I have is okay. As an empath myself, being a good human and being kind to myself is part of that "medicine" for my diseases. 🤷🏾♀️💜🫂 I love this song, this whole album. It was the first BTS album I bought 🙌🏽 The fact that all the members we SUPER DEEPLY INVOLVED in the entire making of the album and the content made it extra special! Ok sorry for typing out a damn book here 😅😅 bye!
The way I usually take in new bts stuff is also just listening/watching the mv. THEN I go to the lyrics. It's hard to do it all at once on the first watch idk how some people do it
I like that the title of the song has a hyphen: "Dis-ease"...maybe meaning the opposite of ease? It seems to make sense, given the lyrics of the song. I also like that the music gets us up and dancing. This is a favorite to play in the car, turned up loud!
💜 For the last couple of years, I'm always waiting for the other shoe to drop. I have a hard time enjoying things, because I'm waiting for the moment it all goes sideways.
I can definitely relate to this. Not recently, per se, but I've traveled through a few windows of time where my anxiety got the best of me and I had a hard time enjoying even the most basic moments and events.
I can absolutely relate to this song. In fact I was forced to do some soul searching when my brain was going at 100 as an accountant at a large corporation and my body noped out and took away my balance with the snap of a finger: "If you won't listen to me, I'll make you listen!" My body *litterally* sat me down for a "talk". 🤦♀️ That was only the first time I encountered stress... I guess I'm not a good listener when it comes to myself. 😅 Little did I know that I was already ill, something that later forced my body to go from 100 to 1. But my brain still continues going at full speed which is the most frustrating combination ever. Especially when I'm only 45 (yes I said only, deal with it! 😜) and there's still so much I'd like to do. It's not unlike the frustration they must've felt being brought to a halt during lockdown. It definitely forces you to stop, think and re-evaluate your priorities. 💜
I have a list. chronic depression, social anxiety, a few other things I don't feel comfortable airing here, oh, and myrmecophobia. Take care of yourselves and each other. 💜
In answer to your question Roscoe - I think too much. About everything. It's like my mind doesn't know how to shut off and rest. The slightest thing will have my brain focusing on something to the point I'll even forget to eat. Whether it's a journey of introspection; contemplating the vastness and complexity of the Universe; the nature of reality, and the existence of the multi-verse; to being driven to put pen to paper as the words flow in poetry or stories. Even reading, which I love, inspires thoughts and ideas that can completely distract me from what I'm reading.😯 Even going somewhere, I need a pen and paper with me. I was going for an eye test recently, and had to grab my pad and pen from my bag, to write several lines of a poem... In the back of a taxi. BTS, their music 🎼, their lyrics and videos, their live performances, they all inspire me. To create. To think. About myself. About the world. About what is, and what could be. The way the world is going (as if my mind didn't focus on that enough), and the way it should be. The potential for humanity (I already think about that too much as it is), and the various, diverging paths, to the future. I think about... Well, what don't I think about. Like I said, my mind is always working, never resting. Which does nothing to help my various medical conditions. And no, I'm not going to talk about them. Sorry Roscoe, I really didn't mean to go on. Thank you, and Borahae 💜
Leah, I often hear people recommend writing down your thoughts when your mind is too busy but clearly you already do that. I was wondering if it helps to write them down or does it just leave space for more thoughts to zoom in? You don't have to answer this. Thanks for sharing either way. 💜
@@amykaiser4315 To be honest Amy, it's a bit of both. Sometimes it can feel cathartic, and my mind, my entire being can feel lighter. For a while. Other times, there are more thoughts. New thoughts. Thoughts sparked by other thoughts. Thoughts about previous thoughts. Thoughts about the form and shape of Eternity. Just... thoughts. It can be exhausting. But also fascinating. And enlightening. Especially when my mind goes into one of those "Okay, if we assume that.... Doesn't that then mean...." or, " If we accept that... Then we must also consider..." conversations with itself. Honestly, it can be amazing. Sorry. Thank you Amy. Borahae 💜
@@leahwarburton Don't apologize. I know what you mean. That kind of mind that jumps from thought to thought makes amazing connections about life and the universe. It is both blessing and curse. 💜
I. Love. This. Song...! 💜💜💜💜 My dis-ease...motivation. Or rather...the lack thereof. I mean, yes...I have 2 part time jobs and I own a thrift store...but to get me up and moving before 10 a.m. on a day off so I can go be creative (I'm an artist and always inspired with ideas) that is almost impossible. I go to bed thinking I will get up early and conquer the world...I get up early but my world is still unconquered 😂
Complacency, it’s so easy to let things happen without putting up a fight, to settle for what you have, not what you want. The old, if it ain’t broke, don’t try to fix it. Also, the trouble with a long rest is that it changes you inside so things are not the same as before when you come out of it, your enthusiasm and energy for life has changed.
It's hard to overcome that mindset, especially if you have come from a place of scarcity. I think that is one of the things that is so special about BTS. Even now as they, especially RM, struggle to rediscover who they are as artists, they are resisting their own status quo. Thank you for sharing. 💜
When I get into something I'm full tilt, I have an addictive personality. I can lose focus and then I can stop if there is something that impedes me (ill health etc). I then find it very hard to get back to the same enthusiasm. My fault is persevering, especially if I'm not good at something... I need to let Bangtan inspire me to keep a stead pace until the end. However I don't think they do that either.... they just have staying power! 😉
Mine is my introvertedness I really cant get myself to enjoy group gatherings and normally find a corner to sit and be quiet, I was shy as a child and tried to be more outgoing as i got older which resulted in me seeming loud and pushy. While I can be sociable in a work setting Im very anti social in my private life even with my family to a certain extent. Also Im not a touchy feely person and it took me a long time to get used to my son in law and grandsons hugging me. So I wish I could accept those things more easily and realise that it doesnt make me a bad person because I find certain things uncomfortable that many people think are normal.
J-Hope was the main writer on this, and Jimin did the bridge. RM and SUGA added their verses. Brasstracks are an American R&B-hip hop production duo based in Alphabet City, Manhattan, New York, that J-Hope likes to work with. Ghstloop is a BigHit Producer. Don't know anyone else. Ivan Jackson is 1/2 of Brasstracks.
Thanks for asking Roscoe, my dis-ease is I'm tired from my everyday grind, work-stress-home-keeping up with a spouse😞. I'm unhappy with my life,and I just live through life hanging onto my faith in God for strength. BTS has been my magic shop. And whatever I'm facing now? I will not give up, Not Today bec when the clock chimes at Zero o' Clock, it will be a new day for me & hope that it will be better days ahead 💜.
Heyy buddy!!! 🤣 (Each time u start with that, Im replying u virtually “hey buddyy!!”) Last I commented was on Hobi’s birthday video and Im still goin stronggg, binge-watching since the day I started with Ep 1 💜💜 How is it SO HARD NOT to dance to this one!! Love ya buddy!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻 praying u feel better each day One day, ONE DAY, I will catch up with all ur videos and ur Livestream! Woohoo! Cant wait!
My disease is a lack of motivation. Nothing has changed for me personally in the past 20 years. People have come in and out of my life, circumstances have changed, my daughter grew up and now is on her own living her life. But for me nothing has changed and I am not motivated to do anything about it. I say I want to travel, but I won’t. I take up hobbies and I give them up easily. I’ve been an avid reader for most of my life, but I haven’t picked up a book in 8 years. It seems that nothing can motivate me to leave my comfort zone. I’m complacent and I don’t like it. And I don’t know what to do about it.
Roscoe! Good question! Hmmm, my disease is self procrastination. I will put off things that are solely for me. The perfectionist in me permits it, but will not allow it for things to do for anyone else. It bothers me and I need to work harder on it, but I'll think about that later.😉 J.o... 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I feel you. For me I have an idea in my head of how something could/should be and it builds into this insurmountable task in my mind and then I procrastinate. My boss once told me, "perfect is the enemy of done" and try to remind myself that no one else can see the vision in my head so no one else can see it suffers by comparison. They just see the job done. Thank you for sharing! 💜
This is my Favorite Producer of Fan Music Videos, elisssa. Her interpretation of Dis-Ease is 🤌🏾💋 (though the Translation of Suga's verse re: Heart Dis-Ease/Sickness is a little rough around the edges) ua-cam.com/video/LzwJ29_iyc0/v-deo.html
I suffer of this disease too, but I noticed (probably thanks this song) that and I've been trying to disaccelerate my brain and heart... The first thing I did was not to apply to the University this semester (now I'm taking it back)... but, you know? my problem was too much work for my brain (classes as a student, classes as a teacher, daily life) and now ... the excess of free time (even if I used it painting, hearing music, being with you, etc) I hate doing nothing! resuming: I need pressure to be happy... this is my dis-ease too :-( I will try to control the pressure ir order not to overwork again...
It's so hard to find the right pace isn't it? I hope this isn't prying and feel free not to answer but I was wondering if a fear of missing out goes along with it?
@@amykaiser4315 Absolutely! Your question is very interesting! Mmmm I think that on a certain way you're right, I'm 65, maybe the knowledge of being at the last minutes of the second part of the game called life makes me try anything that life is offering me... I love to study, or better, to learn. After a failed marriage I had to restart my life with no money, no health, no job. I left my husband in Italy and came back to Brazil. Living at my son's home I began to do physiotherapy. My brother told me to occupy my brain studying... Why not? It was the best thing I do in my life! First I thought my classmates would reject me, because of my age and the crutches. But I was wrong! They accepted me and supported me ❤ Resuming: All of that got me hungry, not of food but life! And to me life is knowing and doing something new every single day. So... I think you're right 💜💜💜 Could you tell me a bit about your story, please? If you feel good with it, of course...
@@silviamunoz6863 Thank you for sharing your story. I am in my late thirties and I have been struggling with the whole moving into middle age thing. On the one hand, there were things that I thought I would have or skills I would have developed at this age that I don't. I am also struggling with understanding my newer physical limitations (I had to have some discs fused in my neck). The earlier part of my thirties were focused on my health and career and now I trying to get a better work life balance. Your story is really inspiring to me. I admire your passion for learning and life itself!
@@amykaiser4315 💜💜💜💜 as you see, nothing is so bad that can't bring us something good. Keep your mind working, in the way it fits better for you, of course, and you will see that you'll improve your health! A positive (and busy) mind is the main pillar for a good health. Oh! That doesn't mean one will be a superhero, no. It means one can control the level of anxiety giving time to time. Things whose solving/solution is not in our hands, are not about us. Here in Brazil they have a saying that I love "o que não tem remédio, remediado está" that means something like "what has no solution, it's solved". We have to learn to live in peace with our faults and be happy with our vitues.. Oh, sorry!! Please, don't think I wanna teach you how to live! Hehehe Age makes us talk a lot, sorry again...
One of mine is feeling guilty when i choose to focus on myself.. i also try to overthink and over analyze everything.. im trying my best to improve on it eversince i found BTS.. still got a long way to go.. but im hoping i’ll get there in the future..
I don't really finish the things I start (I am working on changing that^^) and I am a major introvert. wich is difficult since almost everyone I know is vert extroverted. There is alot I would like to change but I like taking one day at a time, I don't plan and I hae a hard time talking to people... even when I've known them for years and I tend to isolate myself. but one thing that I have been able to change is my overthinking :3 and that is thanks to BTS 💜I don't really care what other people say anymore and I'm slowly putting myself toghether ^^
This is a very interesting song. With samba inspiration indeed. When do you have time to react to the 7 BTS performances at the Seo Taiji's 25th Time Traveller concert? Is that possible? 💜
There is a cow bell also going in the background too. The layers in this track are amazing. When this song comes on in the car, up goes the volume and then that amazing build to the bridge (which Jimin wrote in only a couple of minutes!) the volume keeps going up until it's at the MAX. It's got such amazing 90s Hip Hop vibe that Hobi does so well. Brasstracks also produced and co-wrote More from J-Hope
I don't know if this is a self worth issue or imposter syndrome but I know so many people who have had harder lives than I have. My life is not perfect by any means but it feels like I have been given more than my fair share. So I try hard to be a good person to show my gratitude for my blessings but I don't think anything will ever make it feel less like I have somehow received these things at the expense of someone else, even though logically, I know that is not how it works.
I feel like mine is even when I can slow down and 'rest', my mind never stops churning and stressing. I'm definitely an overthinker in the most extreme sense of the word 😫 Also.. please do do Louder Than Bombs when you get the chance.. you had me thinking we were gonna get a bonus in this vid :/
I get you with the crack videos. It's not funny unless you know the whole context leading to the clips. It's better to just watch the actual shows the videos come from. That's what I had to do.
This is one of my favorites songs ever. My disease is not being able to rest my mind. Like, I am ALWAYS thinking critically, obsessed about details, remembering things and I have a hard time to stop and concentrating on just breathe/do nothing/sleep. Don't know if anyone will understand but that's one of the causes of my insomnia since I was a child and still struggle with this at 29. I hope all of us break free from our diseases and be happy someday. 💜
💜🙌🏻 i fell ya ARMY
I struggle with that too and the hard part for me is when I am deep in it that it is hard to realize that I am in so deep. I don't know if this will help but someone once told me that if you are too caught up in your thoughts, try to focus on your senses to bring you back to the present. What are you physically touching? What are you smelling and tasting? What bits of white noise can you hear?
I feel you. 🤦♀️ I'm 45 and still... 🤷♀️
I can totally relate with you.. this is my struggle every single day.. am 35 and still has a long way to try to have a better mindset.. lets keep trying..
Someone once said to me ‘when you are having conversations with yourself, you are trying to heal a past trauma.’ Was an interesting thing to think about.
Meow meow doing this live is just 😻
My disease is forgetting to love myself exactly how I am in this exact moment. I have always had this “image” in my head of who I want to be. While I don’t think my disease is wanting to better myself, I do think my disease comes into play when I forget that I am still valuable while working on myself. I recently heard an analogy about this. A fruit tree is still valuable in its off season. Although, during it’s off season it isn’t at it’s prime producing fruit, it still has so much value. It’s a place for kids to explore & use their imagination, it provides shade on a sunny day, & it provides inspiration for an artist to paint a picture. This analogy helps me to remember that even though I am not where I want to be, I still have so much to offer & I hope that it may help someone else that suffers from this ‘disease.’
Let’s work on ourselves not to love ourselves, but BECAUSE we love ourselves.
As always, much love. 💜
Imagine what sapling you would think about a mighty tree like you, even if you are in your off season of producing fruit. You are still bringing oxygen and sweet life to this world. 💜
Sometimes we forget how valuable we are to others! We use to be too rigid with ourselves... We do the same with things, always wanting something better and suffering if don't have it instead of praising and having fun with what we already have.
Accept and love yourself the way you are and always work on being a better. person, we are changing every single day.

Really love this analogy 💜
Every time I hear this song I am reminded of the Vegas concert 💜 My husband recorded a video of the whole song, so glad he was there I didn’t stop dancing long enough to get anything on camera lol.
It has a samba base beat, as a Brazilian I like to think JHope got his inspiration when they visit Brazil. 💜😬🇧🇷
Yeah! The cavaquinho in the background and at the end...
🇧🇷💃🎶💜💯💥

A (not so) quick word about the clever wordplay in RM's verse:
The first line is probably "My mind needs a vacation" not "your mind needs a vacation". The absence of a pronoun allows for the line to have double or even triple meanings which makes the language a creative paradise for rappers. Pronouns and articles are not required in Korean, and often they are dropped in everyday speech/writing. For example, the ARMY greeting 'borahae' does NOT mean "I purple you". It literally just means "do purple." If you are looking at and pointing to someone and you say "borahae!" then give them a hug, that person knows you mean "naneun, neoreul borahae!" (literally 'As for me, to you purple is being done"). The pronouns can be dropped in Korean as long as context is understood.
Anyway, it fits better with the next line
"just do work as work" - that's the word-for word translation. It actually means
"I just get the job done." It could also be a command: "just get the job done!"
Next we have the most genius line of the whole song:
"I'm ill
Yeah I'm work itself
A friend called rest?
Oh I never liked him (Rest was never something I liked to do)"
There's a lot going on there.
He's playing with the English word "ill" and the Korean word "일" which is pronounced - you guessed it - "ill".
"일" can mean 'job', 'work' and the number '1'. It can also mean "performance".
In English, "ill' means "sick' but it's also slang for being great or the best.
This means the first line can be "I'm the best" or "I'm sick"
The second part can mean "I'm the definition of Number One" or "I'm the job itself/ I'm work itself" or even "I'm the performance itself"
So this line could be a flex about being the best because he never rests. Or... he can be lamenting about how sick he feels from having a life that's nothing but work/performance, who never gave himself a break to rest. Both meanings are conveyed in the lines. Pure genius, and an example of why Korean is a perfect language for poetry, song, and rap lyrics.
Then there is the line
"this glass-like disease hits your head".
A better translation would be
"Like glass, disease beats you/me over the head (knocks you/me out)". Again, because Korean does not require the use of pronouns, he could be talking in general or about himself specifically. RM often chooses to leave pronouns out, which makes his verses open to interpretation.
This line is also a play on words because "병 (pronounced pyong)" means both 'disease' and 'glass bottle'.

I don’t like to bother people so I don’t ask for help when I really should. I also feel my biggest flaw is laziness. My dad once said my little sister and I needed to be shaken up in a jar so she could relax a little and not worry so much and I could be more industrious. 😆 Miss his little bits of wisdom.
Thank you for sharing! Maybe it is more that you save your energy for the things you are really passionate about.
I totally understand about not wanting to bother people with your own problems. I'm also not good at asking for help when I need it. But I'm trying to be better. I'm trying to remember that there are people who will be there for me when I need them. But it's not always easy.
Just remember that you need to do what is right for you. Borahae 💜
I was this way too but life decided to teach me not to be. I had a very awful arthrosis crisis and had to use crutches. I felt awful, humiliated when people offered to help me carrying things, i.e.
One day I thought... I love to help people, it makes me happy so... Why do I refuse it? Why do I deny this pleasure to others? I began to see the help with my own eyes, I mean, putting the focus not in me but in the person who wanted to be helpful.
I don't know if I expressed me correctly, English is not my native language, but I felt my experience (I'm 65) could be useful in this case... Or at least I hope so 💜💜💜💜
@@silviamunoz6863 What a beautiful way of thinking about it. 💜💜💜💜

Brasstracks produced More and Future in Jack in the Box! ^^
Ok, I had to pause and laugh it out at your Kool-Aid man "Oh yeah" reference. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm sorry, please continue...
This song jumped out at me when the album BE was released by BTS. I think it's a fantastic song. I had not taken a deep dive into the lyrics yet = so I was glad to review them with you. As always, the lyrics are perfect and very meaningful. Thanks for a great video Roscoe!
Its funny you thought it might be the first song you don't get when, just this week, I was trying to think of a bts song that is beloved by ALL army and Dis-ease was the song I thought of. Literally never heard any criticism of it. Its soooo good.
The BE album really is so good. I think it got so much less attention than the English singles during pandemic. It deserves more listens.
Dis-ease supposed to be part of Jack-in-the-box, but they liked it for the BE album.
The word-play of "disease" (COVID) and "dis-ease" ( uneasy because they can't work during the pandemic).
This is probably my favorite song off the BE album. My disease is probably my fear of change. I know change has to happen for there to be growth and it’s inevitable but it’s something I’ve always struggled with.
My disease is my self-hatred and lack of self-esteem. I really think my life would be so different if I could have just believed in myself ONCE
I don't think I've ever clicked a video so fast 🤣 Roscoe, this song SPEAKS to me. Hobi talked about it in an interview and I totally understood. I've got the same personality tendency to go full throttle. It's actually because of my physical conditions that I have been forced to learn balance and... Ugh! It's so difficult!! Hobi found out about his dis-ease during the pandemic height, when we were all cooped up inside and had to face our limitations. I find that very relatable.
Thinking I’m worthless because I can’t go at that speed anymore. I’m stuck at stop. 💔
Being a workaholic or "always busy" as a way of proving my worth is my biggest dis-ease. I'm also a recovering people pleaser.
Good luck with your recovery friend and you are enough as you are. 💜
@@amykaiser4315 Thank you so much Amy 💜 Appreciate that so much!
I have many "diseases" but one that can really make me go into a downward spiral is thinking that I have been on this planet for almost 30 years and I have "nothing" to show for it...like, nothing to contribute, or being painfully average (partially because I was that "gifted child" and if you know, you know...) and these thoughts make me feel useless. But I have been working on this and remind myself that there is nothing wrong with being "average" and that doing my best with what I have is okay. As an empath myself, being a good human and being kind to myself is part of that "medicine" for my diseases. 🤷🏾♀️💜🫂
I love this song, this whole album. It was the first BTS album I bought 🙌🏽 The fact that all the members we SUPER DEEPLY INVOLVED in the entire making of the album and the content made it extra special!
Ok sorry for typing out a damn book here 😅😅 bye!
Unfortunately, I know 💜
The way I usually take in new bts stuff is also just listening/watching the mv. THEN I go to the lyrics. It's hard to do it all at once on the first watch idk how some people do it
I like that the title of the song has a hyphen: "Dis-ease"...maybe meaning the opposite of ease? It seems to make sense, given the lyrics of the song. I also like that the music gets us up and dancing. This is a favorite to play in the car, turned up loud!
Oh you were FEELIN that one. Can totally relate
Sometimes they just grab ya and throw ya around the room in a good way! 👍🏻
💜 For the last couple of years, I'm always waiting for the other shoe to drop. I have a hard time enjoying things, because I'm waiting for the moment it all goes sideways.
I can definitely relate to this. Not recently, per se, but I've traveled through a few windows of time where my anxiety got the best of me and I had a hard time enjoying even the most basic moments and events.
Brasstacks are known for hip hop drums and symphonic brass
I can absolutely relate to this song. In fact I was forced to do some soul searching when my brain was going at 100 as an accountant at a large corporation and my body noped out and took away my balance with the snap of a finger: "If you won't listen to me, I'll make you listen!" My body *litterally* sat me down for a "talk". 🤦♀️ That was only the first time I encountered stress... I guess I'm not a good listener when it comes to myself. 😅
Little did I know that I was already ill, something that later forced my body to go from 100 to 1. But my brain still continues going at full speed which is the most frustrating combination ever. Especially when I'm only 45 (yes I said only, deal with it! 😜) and there's still so much I'd like to do. It's not unlike the frustration they must've felt being brought to a halt during lockdown. It definitely forces you to stop, think and re-evaluate your priorities. 💜
I have a list. chronic depression, social anxiety, a few other things I don't feel comfortable airing here, oh, and myrmecophobia. Take care of yourselves and each other. 💜
In answer to your question Roscoe - I think too much. About everything. It's like my mind doesn't know how to shut off and rest. The slightest thing will have my brain focusing on something to the point I'll even forget to eat. Whether it's a journey of introspection; contemplating the vastness and complexity of the Universe; the nature of reality, and the existence of the multi-verse; to being driven to put pen to paper as the words flow in poetry or stories. Even reading, which I love, inspires thoughts and ideas that can completely distract me from what I'm reading.😯
Even going somewhere, I need a pen and paper with me. I was going for an eye test recently, and had to grab my pad and pen from my bag, to write several lines of a poem... In the back of a taxi.
BTS, their music 🎼, their lyrics and videos, their live performances, they all inspire me. To create. To think. About myself. About the world. About what is, and what could be. The way the world is going (as if my mind didn't focus on that enough), and the way it should be. The potential for humanity (I already think about that too much as it is), and the various, diverging paths, to the future. I think about... Well, what don't I think about. Like I said, my mind is always working, never resting.
Which does nothing to help my various medical conditions. And no, I'm not going to talk about them.
Sorry Roscoe, I really didn't mean to go on. Thank you, and Borahae 💜
Leah, I often hear people recommend writing down your thoughts when your mind is too busy but clearly you already do that. I was wondering if it helps to write them down or does it just leave space for more thoughts to zoom in? You don't have to answer this. Thanks for sharing either way. 💜
@@amykaiser4315 To be honest Amy, it's a bit of both. Sometimes it can feel cathartic, and my mind, my entire being can feel lighter. For a while. Other times, there are more thoughts. New thoughts. Thoughts sparked by other thoughts. Thoughts about previous thoughts. Thoughts about the form and shape of Eternity. Just... thoughts.
It can be exhausting. But also fascinating. And enlightening. Especially when my mind goes into one of those "Okay, if we assume that.... Doesn't that then mean...." or, " If we accept that... Then we must also consider..." conversations with itself. Honestly, it can be amazing.
Sorry. Thank you Amy. Borahae 💜
@@leahwarburton Don't apologize. I know what you mean. That kind of mind that jumps from thought to thought makes amazing connections about life and the universe. It is both blessing and curse. 💜
I. Love. This. Song...! 💜💜💜💜
My dis-ease...motivation. Or rather...the lack thereof. I mean, yes...I have 2 part time jobs and I own a thrift store...but to get me up and moving before 10 a.m. on a day off so I can go be creative (I'm an artist and always inspired with ideas) that is almost impossible. I go to bed thinking I will get up early and conquer the world...I get up early but my world is still unconquered 😂
Yknow what? Can totally see you beat sabering this. Kinda miss you doing that 💜💜
Complacency, it’s so easy to let things happen without putting up a fight, to settle for what you have, not what you want. The old, if it ain’t broke, don’t try to fix it. Also, the trouble with a long rest is that it changes you inside so things are not the same as before when you come out of it, your enthusiasm and energy for life has changed.
It's hard to overcome that mindset, especially if you have come from a place of scarcity. I think that is one of the things that is so special about BTS. Even now as they, especially RM, struggle to rediscover who they are as artists, they are resisting their own status quo. Thank you for sharing. 💜
When I get into something I'm full tilt, I have an addictive personality. I can lose focus and then I can stop if there is something that impedes me (ill health etc). I then find it very hard to get back to the same enthusiasm. My fault is persevering, especially if I'm not good at something... I need to let Bangtan inspire me to keep a stead pace until the end. However I don't think they do that either.... they just have staying power! 😉
Thank you for sharing 💜
Mine is my introvertedness I really cant get myself to enjoy group gatherings and normally find a corner to sit and be quiet, I was shy as a child and tried to be more outgoing as i got older which resulted in me seeming loud and pushy. While I can be sociable in a work setting Im very anti social in my private life even with my family to a certain extent. Also Im not a touchy feely person and it took me a long time to get used to my son in law and grandsons hugging me. So I wish I could accept those things more easily and realise that it doesnt make me a bad person because I find certain things uncomfortable that many people think are normal.
J-Hope was the main writer on this, and Jimin did the bridge. RM and SUGA added their verses. Brasstracks are an American R&B-hip hop production duo based in Alphabet City, Manhattan, New York, that J-Hope likes to work with. Ghstloop is a BigHit Producer. Don't know anyone else. Ivan Jackson is 1/2 of Brasstracks.
Thanks for asking Roscoe, my dis-ease is I'm tired from my everyday grind, work-stress-home-keeping up with a spouse😞. I'm unhappy with my life,and I just live through life hanging onto my faith in God for strength. BTS has been my magic shop. And whatever I'm facing now? I will not give up, Not Today bec when the clock chimes at Zero o' Clock, it will be a new day for me & hope that it will be better days ahead 💜.
Heyy buddy!!! 🤣 (Each time u start with that, Im replying u virtually “hey buddyy!!”)
Last I commented was on Hobi’s birthday video and Im still goin stronggg, binge-watching since the day I started with Ep 1 💜💜
How is it SO HARD NOT to dance to this one!! Love ya buddy!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻 praying u feel better each day
One day, ONE DAY, I will catch up with all ur videos and ur Livestream! Woohoo! Cant wait!
Love it!!
Roscoe, try listening to BE in order, it's a whole experience 😌
Just wanted to say I cannot hear Go, Go, Go without thinking of your screen name now. lol

My disease is a lack of motivation. Nothing has changed for me personally in the past 20 years. People have come in and out of my life, circumstances have changed, my daughter grew up and now is on her own living her life. But for me nothing has changed and I am not motivated to do anything about it. I say I want to travel, but I won’t. I take up hobbies and I give them up easily. I’ve been an avid reader for most of my life, but I haven’t picked up a book in 8 years. It seems that nothing can motivate me to leave my comfort zone. I’m complacent and I don’t like it. And I don’t know what to do about it.
Roscoe! Good question! Hmmm, my disease is self procrastination. I will put off things that are solely for me. The perfectionist in me permits it, but will not allow it for things to do for anyone else. It bothers me and I need to work harder on it, but I'll think about that later.😉
J.o...
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I feel you. For me I have an idea in my head of how something could/should be and it builds into this insurmountable task in my mind and then I procrastinate. My boss once told me, "perfect is the enemy of done" and try to remind myself that no one else can see the vision in my head so no one else can see it suffers by comparison. They just see the job done. Thank you for sharing! 💜
@@amykaiser4315 YES! Exactly!

This is my Favorite Producer of Fan Music Videos, elisssa. Her interpretation of Dis-Ease is 🤌🏾💋 (though the Translation of Suga's verse re: Heart Dis-Ease/Sickness is a little rough around the edges)
ua-cam.com/video/LzwJ29_iyc0/v-deo.html
I suffer of this disease too, but I noticed (probably thanks this song) that and I've been trying to disaccelerate my brain and heart... The first thing I did was not to apply to the University this semester (now I'm taking it back)... but, you know? my problem was too much work for my brain (classes as a student, classes as a teacher, daily life) and now ... the excess of free time (even if I used it painting, hearing music, being with you, etc) I hate doing nothing! resuming: I need pressure to be happy... this is my dis-ease too :-( I will try to control the pressure ir order not to overwork again...
It's so hard to find the right pace isn't it? I hope this isn't prying and feel free not to answer but I was wondering if a fear of missing out goes along with it?
@@amykaiser4315 Absolutely! Your question is very interesting! Mmmm I think that on a certain way you're right, I'm 65, maybe the knowledge of being at the last minutes of the second part of the game called life makes me try anything that life is offering me...
I love to study, or better, to learn. After a failed marriage I had to restart my life with no money, no health, no job. I left my husband in Italy and came back to Brazil. Living at my son's home I began to do physiotherapy. My brother told me to occupy my brain studying... Why not? It was the best thing I do in my life! First I thought my classmates would reject me, because of my age and the crutches. But I was wrong! They accepted me and supported me ❤
Resuming: All of that got me hungry, not of food but life! And to me life is knowing and doing something new every single day.
So... I think you're right 💜💜💜
Could you tell me a bit about your story, please? If you feel good with it, of course...
@@silviamunoz6863 Thank you for sharing your story. I am in my late thirties and I have been struggling with the whole moving into middle age thing. On the one hand, there were things that I thought I would have or skills I would have developed at this age that I don't. I am also struggling with understanding my newer physical limitations (I had to have some discs fused in my neck). The earlier part of my thirties were focused on my health and career and now I trying to get a better work life balance. Your story is really inspiring to me. I admire your passion for learning and life itself!
@@amykaiser4315 💜💜💜💜 as you see, nothing is so bad that can't bring us something good. Keep your mind working, in the way it fits better for you, of course, and you will see that you'll improve your health! A positive (and busy) mind is the main pillar for a good health. Oh! That doesn't mean one will be a superhero, no. It means one can control the level of anxiety giving time to time. Things whose solving/solution is not in our hands, are not about us.
Here in Brazil they have a saying that I love "o que não tem remédio, remediado está" that means something like "what has no solution, it's solved". We have to learn to live in peace with our faults and be happy with our vitues..
Oh, sorry!! Please, don't think I wanna teach you how to live! Hehehe Age makes us talk a lot, sorry again...
@@silviamunoz6863 It is my pleasure to listen to your wisdom. 💜
One of mine is feeling guilty when i choose to focus on myself.. i also try to overthink and over analyze everything.. im trying my best to improve on it eversince i found BTS.. still got a long way to go.. but im hoping i’ll get there in the future..
I don't really finish the things I start (I am working on changing that^^) and I am a major introvert. wich is difficult since almost everyone I know is vert extroverted.
There is alot I would like to change but I like taking one day at a time, I don't plan and I hae a hard time talking to people... even when I've known them for years and I tend to isolate myself.
but one thing that I have been able to change is my overthinking :3 and that is thanks to BTS 💜I don't really care what other people say anymore and I'm slowly putting myself toghether ^^
That is amazing! Thank you for sharing my fellow introvert!
@@amykaiser4315 Thank you for taking your time to read it😳
@Sangluv I still hate adulting and I am 62
Do you still encounter moments where you think, I feel like, as an adult I should know how to ___ by now? Thanks for sharing.
💜💛
I missed it 😩
This is a very interesting song. With samba inspiration indeed.
When do you have time to react to the 7 BTS performances at the Seo Taiji's 25th Time Traveller concert? Is that possible? 💜
Hoseok was the main writer on this, and Jimin did the bridge. Namjoon and Yoongi wrote their own lines. I love this song. 💜
Just started watching & only a few seconds in I think you made a new saying for Anna to put on a bracelet: Hedididdybuddy. Yep, I want one of those. 💜
There is a cow bell also going in the background too. The layers in this track are amazing. When this song comes on in the car, up goes the volume and then that amazing build to the bridge (which Jimin wrote in only a couple of minutes!) the volume keeps going up until it's at the MAX. It's got such amazing 90s Hip Hop vibe that Hobi does so well. Brasstracks also produced and co-wrote More from J-Hope
My disease is I like my box. I like my comfort zone. I done want to venture too far out it's safe here. And I don't like change
I can't till you do a live BE album listen 🙏💜
I don't know if this is a self worth issue or imposter syndrome but I know so many people who have had harder lives than I have. My life is not perfect by any means but it feels like I have been given more than my fair share. So I try hard to be a good person to show my gratitude for my blessings but I don't think anything will ever make it feel less like I have somehow received these things at the expense of someone else, even though logically, I know that is not how it works.
💜
I feel like mine is even when I can slow down and 'rest', my mind never stops churning and stressing. I'm definitely an overthinker in the most extreme sense of the word 😫
Also.. please do do Louder Than Bombs when you get the chance.. you had me thinking we were gonna get a bonus in this vid :/
He did recently release a Louder Than Bombs reaction. Please check the videos.
I get you with the crack videos. It's not funny unless you know the whole context leading to the clips. It's better to just watch the actual shows the videos come from. That's what I had to do.
