Brave Girls to the moon! 🚀🌙
Rollin' SoTY!
We are Fearless!
They came back with Deepened not High Heels!
NTR_KANG good
@@RiceSquad LMAO😂
The story just made me cry
A fan of this group years ago. Glad they finally got some recognition. I hope it all doesn't just end with 4year old Rollin... and that they get some new music to also be popular. Your the best T.A.T.
Imagine having the literal army as your fanbase. If the girls ever get stalkers or saesang fans they are done for lmao
Fr lol
you of simp mind, they literally have a whole country's army to protect them
I'll be afraid if Kim Jong-un took a fancy to them.
@@KatimaMulilo yeah that’d be scary
@@KatimaMulilo 😭😭😭
"2nd Generation kpop groups aren't relevant anymore"
*Brave girls: hold my stool*
Im complete agree with you
Apink says hi
@@ZenStrive52 they're not as relevant as they were before
@@ORBITUS_ ah yeah 💀 last year everyone underestimated apink with duhmduhrum but their fanbase was a pain to vote against and they took 6 wins I think
HAHAHAHA love this!
Because of the overall popularity of Brave Girls, they have a great shot at becoming more bigger than Rollin' With 2nd gen iconic producer. Their patience and hardwork prove that they're worth not disbanding.
Brave Bro is indeed iconic producer. Just hope he won't do the generic route for music as it was his issue back then with some groups
@@leianachekizha6156 hopefully with Rollin' and the money he gains from records Brave Girls broke, that they have someone who can manage them to become more successful. Because Brave Bro. Cannot handle a group istg, he needs to hire another ceo to do that. Because he lacks the ability of promoting the group's personal flare back then compared with good bops.
Will they have a Hani movement? I hope so
Unfortunately it'll just be for a couple of years max as they're no longer teen. The harsh truth. But props to their undying military fans who make it happen. They totally deserve all those rewards and fame!
The rise of Brave Girls will be one of the greatest Kpop stories of all time
also of the Korean society too
Yup
I think it's the greatest comeback story in Kpop ever.
The greatest in my book, exid not getting any paks but they hold a record
@@MrRdlv hold record for? Asking nicely don't hate me
Been listening to Bravegirls for a couple of weeks now and can I say, Rollin, We Ride and High Heels are all absolute bops. These girls deserve everything.
No Rush and Deepened are also bangers
Welcome to the family!!
Deepened too
Deep end is a crazy song if you listen to it 3 times in a row it grows alot on you.
Omg such bangers since falling into the kpop hole of 2017 🥺✨✨✨
A lot of channels have been covering this occurrence, but I've got to say the script, editing, & storytelling of this video is incredibly well done. It really captures the drama & inspiration of it all. Appreciating the craft!
Thanks you for the kind words!
Sadly he missed the criminally underrated moment in history when Deepened was released.
Agreed! Instead of just listing facts, their was a storyline that wasn't bogged down by an info dump! 👏🏻👏🏻
Yep. Many other channels did not focus on their hardships and hard work years before, merely focus on the "viral". I find it kinda "disservice" to the group.
I am.watching It after 1 year and I'm still in tears today while watching It!!!! Loving this group since debut AND seeing them ve succesful now makes me emotional!!!
My biggest flex is that i was obsessed with their songs long before they went famous and I'm just so proud of them and admire them so much
It's a really miraculous story. I'm a 70 year old man in the US and I've followed Brave Girls since High Heels and loved them. I bought 2 of their albums: High Heels and Rollin'. I called those albums "K-pop for adults". But I thought they were done a couple of times. And now this! The Korean soldiers certainly have good taste! I wish all the best to the future of Brave Girls.
First of all, I send you respect. Sir
Your age, with good taste like the Korean army in your early twenties is really just a number
And as you wish they will keep running on the path to success
Because, their success aren't the way the existing K-pop industry advance plans, promotions and invests Big money for the benefit of various media cartels and manipulates the public.
From the beginning of the resurgence,
S.Korean public directly picked Brave Girls through UA-cam, a new powerful tools for expression of their opinions method in the Internet era.
and since then, the huge public fandoms has grown by themselves volunteers to continuously support and manage Brave Girls, Even now a month later it keeps getting bigger n bigger.
Literally becoming an idol created by citizens themselves.
Brave Girls is likely to be recorded in history as the first girl group that achieved a kind of K-pop democratization.
I recognize this as a very encouraging phenomenon and keep watching it.
The evidence is clearly revealed in S.Korean 3 major music charts.
Melon ; no.1 (Big major S.Korean music charts)
www.melon.com/chart/index.htm
1. IU's song
2. Rollin'
3. IU...
4. IU
5. Rose' from BP
6. IU
7. O.S.T from very popular K-dramas
8. IU
9. Dynamite by BTS

Bugs ; no.3
music.bugs.co.kr/chart?wl_ref=M_left_02_01

7. IU
8. Justin Bieber? yeh, right thats him that famous
9. IU
0. IU
at this point, U will be more curious about 'who the IU is?'
U can understand her like as S.Korean Mariah Carey or Whitney Houston... major soloist of the K-pop industry
However Rollin' is the 'Brave' song that persistently resists the carpet bombing of IU's horrific new songs
and is breaking the IU songs line-up on all music charts ranking... Its rlly like 'Brave' Girls
Looking at the chart it feels like seeing a HBOtv series B.O.B isolated in the enemy territory
most of the S.Korean k-pop fandoms call IU's new full-length album is a 'Natural Disaster' beyond human control
THX again, U.S fearless Sir. U've got Great Taste
i totally agree to this, whenever I'm asked which kpop girl group is the sexiest, I'd always say brave girls 😅 been a fan since 2016 deepened era, and even before they already deserved to win.
@@beeeejplease western elder? solute
YAASSSS you have amazing taste
I’m really amazed how years later this song became so popular. I couldn’t be happier for them. This song (and Deepened) has been on my playlist for years and I always thought it was so underrated.
Deepened is so good! :)
Same, I am so happy for them, they finally got the recognition they deserve
I became a fan of bravegirls because of the song and dance in deepened, ive never heard from them for a long time until this time, im happy for them.....
add We Ride into the playlist too
YES rollin and deepened were on my playlist for YEARS they’re absolute bops
Even if they disband tomorrow and call it quits, they already made history with just one song! They will forever be legendary and LEGENDS in kpop!
Their hardwork for OVER A DECADE finally paid off. I'm in tears. Happy tears. I'm so happy for them. Brave Girls, you are brave. You are fearless.
When I found Rollin back when the song came out I was like "this song has SOTY potential yet nobody is recognising it??" and I guess years later everyone finally followed
Same same 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Hello. Im a Kep1ian and Queendom2 brought me here.. im loving brave girls songs and i want to know more abt them. This video brought me to tears 😭 they've gone through so much 🥺. I am definitely supporting brave girls now! 💞
Vote bravegirls on queendom season 2
The fact that they didn't give up for a decade give me goosebumps
Me too
Its quite unexpected for one 4 year old song to skyrocket up the charts, but We Ride is in the Top #5 of all Charts now and High Heels is storming up the Charts. It means that the Korean Public is not listening to just one older song, Rollin', but 3. This reversal is unheard of.
I love underdog success stories. I hope they keep rising.
Brave girls WILL SURELY start from "The Greatest Underdogs in Kpop" to "Blackpink's Greatest Rival", This will be a huge competition, I CAN'T WAIT!
lmao
They don't have to compete with anyone, they have their own genre and audience. There is place for everything in kpop.
lol
I don't think one song is enough, iKON with Love Scenario is example, their comeback like Dive is not even charting in top 10
This is based on whether them company gives them good songs and they have good promotion
The bad news is that their company is small and I doubt their promotions 😔 BRAVE GIRLS DESERVES BETTER
I really love how this underdog group is now in every variety show in Corea 😂.
*I NEED THIS FOR LOONA TOO*
That is gonna happen to LOONA. We're ✨manifesting✨ haha
Loona in the military chart
Loona songs doesn't appeal to korea gp unless they create one
I hope loona will perform 100 times in military too so that they will be famous
@@leianachekizha6156 kind of agree with what you mean, I mean, loona barely gets promoted in their own country? and koreans that did find out about Loona really end up liking them so
The fact that they beat world class singers in all 3 shows tell us how legendary this grp will be. Pretty sure BRAVE GIRLS gonna be remember for years come. They are the true definition of ROUGH success. Thanks for hanging on BRAVE GIRLS.
Let us all be Fearless and support them no matter which fandom we're from! They are the Rocky Balboa of the K-Pop world
Yeah, Blinks, Army, Once, Merries...all should give them a boost. It's really hard to try to get noticed in the kpop world from a small agency, especially when there are thousands of idols and 50 new groups every year.
THANK FOR YOU MINIDOCUMENTAL, BRAVE GIRLS ARE PURE GOLD
I love stories like these! Brave Girls wasn’t on my radar until just last month, but I love the energy of this group. I’ve watched some fan cams from their U.S. and their concerts looked like a blast! I hope I can go one soon! ❤️
When music unites people, that's the best feeling. Truly. And Brave Girls did just that.
Well done! I'm in tears. This is indeed a miracle for them and they all deserve everything that's happening. I hope this popularity carries them through the years to come.
Well since AOA practically over now thanks to Jimin, its time for Brave brother give love to his own child now.
Every time I come across a video about their comeback, their resurgence with Rollin', it makes me so happy. Like imagine being days away from disbanding after years of not really getting successful and them BAM! you're back in it. Winning shows left and right. They really deserve it, they worked so hard. I really hope other groups can see this as a boost, that you can be big even if it takes a while.
How the girls felt like failures because nothing they did was working out broke my heart. Popular groups put out shitty songs & get #1 yet awesome underrated groups go unnoticed like this. I'm so happy for these talented queens 💗
Guys, we have to support the girls in their next comeback.
I remember before all this happened around November and December nights. While I was doing my dishes at night, I used to hear all brave girls and in special we ride and Rollin!, and I was thinking ..how is possible this girls are not enough famous??? they all have talent!! and good songs, beautiful !! then around January and February I was asking what's going on with them, the last videos of we ride and that's it!!!... I was king of mad, but I was posting come on people lest support them …they deserved!! ...is good know they finally have the opportunity after all this years...I wish them the best and hope soon other come back with new songs:) kisses from USA :)
I literally need these girls to become stinking rich. They deserve it and so much more.
brave girls. brave souls. win goals.
I discovered Brave Girls just this month because of one poll where my idol SB19 is nominated against them. Brave Girls won the poll and I can say that their fans, Fearless are so kind and friendly to us. I am now a fan of Brave Girls, they are very talented and they inspire me a lot. SB19 and Brave Girls has the same story, they're supposed to be disbanded and had gone through many problems but they became viral overnight because of a video and that made them popular now. Performing for years isn't easy but they work hard and look at where they are now.
EVER since queendom these girls touch my heart I Might not be. abig fan of some songs but I adore thse woemn they deserve this achivements BRAVE GIRLS FIGHTING!!
I'm not their fan but seeing hard-working people finally are paid off makes me emotional every single time.
imagine brave girls performing on year-end shows. kpop groups dancing to their song. ROLLIN' SOTY🎉💛
I'm so happy for them, as someone who is a fan of bts for many years, i know how it feels to see the group you love being underdogs trying to make their way up in a cutthroat industry with no support from their peers
I'm crying again because of this video
I'm a fearless since rollin I waited for this for too long I cried so hard when they released we ride
Congratulations :)
I hope every underrated and underappreciated girl groups finds success like this 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I heard this song ages ago so I'm glad that it had its success last year.
Tears 😭
god bless you brave girls
Okay I am not crying
I am really happy for them
Brave girls fighting!
I'm shocked by how this channel still does not have over 1 million subs. The quality and content
IKR it's better then those shitty "Crack" vids or shipping vids.
I had tears in my eye the whole video and the end just broke me I always liked Rollin , High Heels and deepened.
I'm so proud of them. They deserve it so much!
Brave Girls surpassed Bp and Tw already wow! Im a once and now considering to be a fan of brave girls i hope they win more awards!! i will be voting for future ones.
Until now I'm still crying while watching this. Brave Girls deserve all the success they have right now actually not only them but all of nugu groups. 😭
I just started stanning them and I’m so happy for them ❤️❤️❤️💙❤️
If you look at some of the early videos of their performances for the Army years ago, they were giving their all. I can see how they endeared themselves to legions of fans in the army. Those were some stellar performances. I think there are many talented kpop idols from smaller agencies that don't get the proper notice...and I think they are super talented.
Oh my god. This brings tears to my eyes 🥲
can somebody get me another fairy tale in the entire music industry? seriously, I couldn’t find one.
I teared up at the part where they finally ranked #1 in music charts
rrollin rollin up the charts, so proud of them
Omg I remembered listening to Deepened a couple years back and wondering why it had so little views like they’re crazy talented I was really hoping they wouldn’t flop now my prayers are being answered 😭❤️
Their hardworks paid them!! Congratulations Brave Girls!! I love you so much!! Im so happy they didn’t disaband! ❤️❤️❤️ more support from them, god bleas them all the time!!
"an otherwise unknown group" speak for yourself buddy, I've loved them since deepened, that song was my BOP
Maybe they're referring to unknown in Korea, but overseas, yes a lot of us knew Brave Girls and appreciated their music years back already ❤️
I love them since 2011 and easily is a great summer song
i want hyeran back
@@jess679. she is gonna do a solo I think
Thanks for amazing recap video! You captured the essence of Brave girls being “fearless”
Paul, I just love the passion you put into your videos, man, I'm so hyped and happy for Brave Girls.
They have much to thank for to the one who uploaded the video. But aside from that, I can say nothing no more. It feels like that is a once in a blue moon opportunity! Makes one cry. So happy for them! I am hoping that they make a comeback album/ song soon.
I am happy that this group is becoming successful after a long time, I am proud of them
it's official...they disbanded today. ..💔
Edit:they've re-debut as BBGirls in 2023
can't wait for for bravel girls and fromis 9 to perform for the military coming up!!
Fearless Fromilies
They deserve everything!!! They worked so hard for so long, this was way overdue
They came back with deepened actually 😅 with a new line up + 2 original members and then comeback w Yoo-ho and high heels which is the last songs when 2 of the original members still in the group
Damn, who slice onion here... Ughhh my eyes.
여기가 제일 정확하고 세밀하게 잘 설명하는 곳 갔네 추천합니다.
Your editing skill was great bruh..
I was paying attention too brave girls since deepened.. Back when I found them I already knew I was too late because its already 5 years since their debut.. But i got hooked up by hyeran the rapper, she spit fire but unfortunately she has to leave the group b4 they find their success.. Their success is 25% great song by great composer, 30% military fan support, 45% perseverance which makes Knetz took a pity on them.. I thought it almost impossible for them to take trophy at music show.. Since it viral at the same times with rose solo debut.. But they make it.. I found myself crying for them.. For a great success story of the internet era..
ikr Its vry regrettable that Hye-ran couldnt b with their success
she was an excellent female rapper! rare in K-pop GGs.
And there r 2% u missed. (Plz forgive my rudeness)
1% was 'VIDITOR' in the role of a detonator,
Another 1% was YT A.i algorithm tht acts as an ignition switch.
Even if only 1 of the conditions u mentioned n the remaining 2% were lacking,
they woulda fade away quietly into the dark where no one wondered about their disband.
Thts why its never wrong to say that 'its a Miracle'
@@piedpiper3614 yeaaah i totally forgot the one who make this happened.. Sorry for viditor..
Great video! Thank you for this. Brave Girls' story is really inspirational. I'm so happy for qhat happened to them.
Indeed, this is a comeback in its purest sense. Not since EXID have I been this happy to discover a group that clearly deserves it. Congratulations, Brave Girls.
true 👏
I was lucky to have Rollin' recommended to me by Spotify in 2017 and I've been hooked on BG ever since! Can't wait for their next comeback!
wow... i have seen many videos ONLY THIS ONE made me cry
OMG THEYRE FINALLY GETTING THE RECOGNITION THEY DESERVE 😭❤️
Thanks for making Brave Girls' emotional underdog story
Im proud to say that i am a Brave girls fansince day 1. They really deserve this moment.
i've been jamming to their Rollin single singe it's release, been bopping to it since day one, thanks for the soldiers to save our Queens and gave them their win !
And it's amazing ! Their hard work and coming from a small agency with a lot of hardship, having a Final BIG success ! Queens !
I'm in tears right now I really love this group but it's hard to stan a 10 years old group that always has 2 or 3 years hiatus. I'm so glad they reached the top now. Rooting for them always!!
This is why it's important not to leave any market out! You never know who is going to want to listen to you
They deserves every single awards they've got ♡♡♡
WE LOVE U!! FOREVER SUPPORT
Happy to hear their achievements... Congratulations 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥳🥳🥳
Amazing story. Thanks for making this video. It's very touching. Their surprise when they won the first award is a big moment to remember always. Yujeong's smile is priceless. It makes me happy too :) Now I just hope some of my underrated favorite groups will get their moment of fame as well (Laboum, Sonamoo).
Sonamoo definitely deserve the hype. I miss my girl Euijin
They are so inspirational. Such strong women who endured tough times stuck with their dreams til the end. I'm happy they're having such a huge success!
thats why JK was dancing with rollin in In The Soop... i bet when bts enter military service they will still dance with this
THIS VIDEO MADE ME CRY. WAY TO GO BRAVE GIRLS!
Damn this story telling made me cry hard
after almost a year i came back to this video and cried again T^T
I wouldn't be surprise if Rollin will actually win SOTY. I mean, it SHOULD be. Waiting for Brave Girls' comeback, hopefully it's also a bubbly and fun summer concept just like Rollin, I just can't get enough of the song😍💕 Congrats to these girls, we all anticipate your much awaited comeback💓
Love the video but you actually messed up with they actually came back as 7 with deepened comeback not high heels but other than that love the video
Press F
I use to love High Heel and in my car playlist. But, after too many new GG debut, i dont listen to Rolling and never heard of We Ride. Then, i feel weird, wait what they invited to Running Man. Then, i found this story. Owh, i feel happy for them. I hope they become big starting from now. Their hardship paid. They deserve this attantion.
Im crying tears of joy. I'm so happy for them. I hope they continue to make music and win awards and become bigger and bigger.
Better late than never, as a new fearless...I hope this is a new beginning
Really well put together! Been a fan of them for quite some time, so glad to see them get the recognition they deserved.
EXID was close to disbandment also before up&down hit it big.
Hopefully they have a wonderful career now just as EXID did.
true 😍 I miss EXID tho
And now there disbanded ist a DARK day in kpop History .
They only cancelled their existing contract with Brave Entertainment who have never invested properly in them to succeed. The girls have asked their fandom FEARLESS to hold on and wait for their return, they are staying together and coming back. Believe Fearless, have faith and believe they will comeback to us soon. Fearless forever and Fighting !!!
@@billyroberts6774 oh thats nice to hear
They are coming back this summer with new name 'BB Girls'
@@grow1820 i know
ok i wasn't dreaming. they seem to have reuploaded all mvs coz i remember watching and listening to this song 4 yrs ago
I've been a fan of them for a long time now and I'm glad they are getting their recognition now
It took so long for Bravegirls to go viral. Their success is due to their sincerity and stedy efforts. When they didnt get a chance to sing on MTV programs, they kept showing performances in a number of troops in South Korea. ROK army soldiers were their great supporters, and even after they finished military service, they've been still great fans of Bravegirls out of the army. A videoclip of Bravegirls' stage for soldiers made a bit hit in UA-cam and so many people started recognizing Bravegirls. Also, people finally found out that Brave Brother, an well-known K-pop producer, was the one who made Bravegirls.
Man I remember 10 years ago when the original line up first debut they had a really good debut song. Wish they had more recognition from the start.
Rollin is like bohemian rhapsody of western music after the decade the song blow up not because of streaming it over and over again but the love to the song by the people listening it
Keep doing your best no matter how small or big, and good things will come to you. That's the story of Brave Girls
