Its a song that people who don’t know about bts and their journey cant relate, so I understand if people said its not easy listening to or not addicting. Its a perfect song to explain why do they named it “anthology album” and not just a regular “compilation album”, its a perfect song to end the first chapter of their career . I can’t wait to see the new chapter, the next big thing they prepared💜💜💜
😅I mean I know the Lyrics,I can relate the lyrics.... the melody is mediocre thats why!
@@rahul_maynglmbm like I said, for some people this song is not addicting (im sure the boys themselves aware of that), it sounds like a very normal side track. Its just that this song explains the purpose of the album, its like the summary of their journey. Tbh im not surprised if they choose not to do any promotion for this album and went straight to announce the next album and world tour.
@@rahul_maynglmbm Judging from your playlist, I'm dumbfounded that you even dared to say that the melody's mediocre. It would do you a ton of good to widen your knowledge by including other kpop gens in your arsenal. That way, you'll know that the melody is reminiscent of 1st gen music which explains why it's a big hit in South Korea right now.
@@hyyh6-132 My playlist? haha Have u seen my Spotify playlist one?? I have songs from Seo Taiji, Bigmama, Jinusean to BTS's, BLACKPINK.. to Dok2, LOCO, Jay park, to Korean drama OSTs, to STAYC, IVE... What is your point here?? I have been listening to Kpop wayyy longer than you think. I can also speak Korean.. I know Hangul.. I know the Lyrics.. I listen to BTS's songs also. I relate to the lyrics... Not so much as the melody. You saying that melody is a 1st gen melody is showing me that you dont listen to ANYYYY 1st gen song! "Widen your knowledge" LOL!

This song is not for Billboard. They were easily able to release mega-hit song with full English lyric, but this was just made for BTS and ARMY. They don't dwell on their position and do just what they want to. Love it.
You're comment is exactly what the lyrics of the song are !!
G DRAGON KING
the obviously dont just do what they want to do because they lost their direction after dynamite
@@dasanii2467🤣🤣 how?
you say easily as if they even wrote the song dynamite. they didn't, they just performed it
It's definitely a song for ARMY, whilst I've enjoyed their English pop hits I'm so glad to get a more "BTS -esque original song". It really feels like coming home and I've missed this.
they literally have done sooo many different sounding songs over the eras. All of their titles sound are so different from each other.Their english songs did lack rapline but genre wise BTS cant be boxed.
@@katew9924 this they’re getting at the fact that this doesn’t sound like a sad Ed Sheehan reject like their English releases did
@@katew9924 I totally agree with you that they are capable of doing many genres and styles of music. I just feel like it's been awhile since i've heard music that sounds more like their old songs - so i feel nostalgic listening to this one :)

@@eeaw6031 this would have sounded more like a burn if kpop in itself was not comprised of songs from a bunch of producer rejects from the west. 2nd gen music was actual demos that were so dated for the am industry at that time and would be sold off to kpop companies.
V's scene was a call back to boy in luv mv. If you look at his suit, it has a school emblem and there was a scene in boy in luv where they all hold a rose singing to the girl in the MV. The containers were call back to i need u/run era. Suga's scene with flowers and piano is a reference to stay gold. The statue obviously being from Blood, Sweat and Tears. The school bus referring back to No more dream era. YNWA Carousal and the train were obviously a reference to spring day. Also their clothes are also from each era.
I thought the rose was a reference to singularity
@@lauracastro929 look at the emblem on the pocket of his suit, it's a school blazer.
Suga's piano is also a reference to BWL
Is jungkook running forward by himself a callback to On?
The beginning set up with the chairs is from Just One Day
the desert and sea sounds are connected to their hidden song Sea from 2017
"This place that I thought was the *sea* was actually a *desert*
and our second name was “idols from a small agency with no connections”
We were cut from broadcast countless times
To fill in for someone was our dream
Some said we won’t be able to make it big because we’re from a small company
I know I know I know as well
The days when seven of us tried to sleep in one room
The faith we had before falling asleep that tomorrow would be different
The mirage of a *desert*
Though I could see its form, I couldn’t grasp it
I prayed that we would survive in this *desert* that felt endless
I prayed that it wasn’t reality
Eventually the mirage was caught by us and became reality,
and the *desert* we feared got filled with our blood, sweat, and tears to become the *sea*
But what are these fears among all this happiness?
We know too well that this place was originally a *desert*
I don’t want to cry, I don’t want to rest
(No, how about resting just for a bit)
(No no no)
I don’t want to lose, this was originally a desert
(Well, then we have to run)
(Well, we have to cry more)"
2017* but yes, so beautiful 🥹
@@brendapeterson2576 yup, a typo, LY Her was 2017 indeed. I'll correct it thank you 💜
@@erume5776 💜💜💜
I really really love Sea
I thought it was just saying that they’re going to see armys, who are whales in the ocean. The desert is the pandemic where they weren’t able to see us
If I had to describe the song with one word it'll be "nostalgic"
The song is a message for us army's
it really means a lot for me after all this years with them
It doesn't really feel like a comeback to me. Let's be honest for a while, Yet To Come is more of a personal message to ARMYs, a way to express BTS feelings about this moment of their career and their hopes for the future, than a potential hit. I don't think this song will do well on the radio, though it may be received well in SK. But that seems to be the whole point of this release. This time it's all about the music they've been releasing since 2013 until now. It's all about giving their last 9 years as BTS a closure and starting a new chapter.
Listening to this album is like going through a photo album. Each song brings back memories. I still remember the thrill I felt when I was waiting for the first performance of RUN on MAMA 2015, my tears of joy when I saw them win their first Daesang, my excitement to see them perform on AMAs and then on BBMAs. It was a really long ride, but I've enjoyed it so much.
I'm both excited and scared to find out what are BTS planning to do next. It must be something big, probably bigger than just a change of direction they want go with their music. But since they assured us that it's not the end, then I'm eagerly waiting to see them begin their new chapter.
It's not meant to achieve anything, it's an Anthology album and those are made to pay tribute to their career journey instead of achieving something
@@cayonaianjakem.9961 Exactly, they even mention this in YTC's lyrics
Yes, i think bts also dont think about making this cb a huge thing and to gain popularity from it. It's more like a massage and a thank you album for fans. And I love it , the way they decided to went with this concept. But their b-sides are FIRE hahahah it's like they taking us to 2013-2015 era with that hip hop songs. Also there's demo that I know ALL ARMY HAVE BEEN WAITING TO HEAR, it's the best
I agree with your thoughts on the purpose of this song. Also, as always, the full vibrancy of the song only comes when you listen to it in within the context of the album as a whole. Someone else said BTS are storytellers and I think that is the best way to view this album--their story with each other and with ARMY.
@@cayonaianjakem.9961 yups i believe lots of people miss this
Cool to see the rap line have so many lines like their early songs! Also love the call backs to their previous songs and MVs!
BTS have really proven themselves and this album release & concept is so amazing!! 💜💜
True! I love how the rapline have may lines here.
seriously absolutely loving rapline sections in this song, actually having long lines!! so good!
G DRAGON KING
Loved the callbacks to previous music videos. The song is very cute and very much catered towards ARMY. That last shot is a complete replica of one of the last scenes from the Spring Day music video.

When the video opened with them in the desert, but the sound of ocean waves were in my ears, I instantly thought of "Sea", the hidden track off of "Love Yourself: Her".
I get the impression with this release being tied to a massive anthology triple album and the m/v showcasing their history up until now, that this is a moratorium on new music from them for now, but also a promise that they'll return to their roots when they are back together.
Wow, a moratorium, never thought abt that
This song was so sentimental and uplifting, it’s amazing how much they’ve been able to accomplish while still doing their best to do what they love and stay humble, I’m happy for them. Can’t wait to see what’s next :)
Bts often talks about desert and sea as a metaphor of their career ,even their song "sea" talk alot about that, so the desert with the sound of the sea its perfect
I really liked this song, it’s not often you see groups putting out calm ballads as a title track, Run BTS is crazy though, it’s unbelievably good we need a reaction 🛐🛐🛐
This song is like an ode to the army's whose been there for them and a promise that this is not the end. This album is like a ending and a beginning of something. This maybe because of the military talks, since they don't know yet the decision of the Korean government. The mv is like walking through the memory lane of their journey to where they are now.
did bts openly speak of the milatary tasks? im pretyt sure bts will be postponing military tasks seeing how important bts are to the korean goverment. they arent your everyday kpop group, theyre artists who have made the impossible possible and earned so many awards for their country, so bts will most likely not join the military service for a long time.
@@Lofiejm the thing is supposedly before or after of first quarter of 2022, SK government should give a mandate if bts will or will not go through military since member jin has to go this december but until now there's no decision given, so BIGHIT is tied between creating new album or not. But this anthology album is the safe route, coz whether they'll go to military or not, it's advantage to them qnd their fans. If the government said they have to go then atleast they created an album for army's as a group before they go (if they decide to go as a group) or jin goes first. And if ever their gov't said they don't need to go then they can have world tour immediately and release a new album after or while having a world tour just like the old times.
The hip hop track from BE (the pandemic album) is Dis-ease, my personal favourite. Also Life Goes On was categoriesed as a hip hop ballad but I always saw it as more of a pop song.
The first thought I had after watching the video was the same : this feels like both an end and a beginning
this song honestly made my heart ache with nostalgia and happiness, i absolutely can't wait to see what happens next ! i'd like to suggest their other new song "run bts", it's soo good and i've had it on repeat !! thank you for the reaction pd!
The connection between the rap verses esp hobi's and the call and answer with all the boys after is my fav part! This song feels so special and shows their attitudes towards their music and journey (past present and future) so well. Also For Youth actually made me cry because it was so beautiful 😭 Excited for what comes next 💜
Cry my eyes out to this song every time I hear it
Even if it’s not a goodbye to the group to even say goodbye to the chapter of their career that formed so much of my adolescence and young adult life is still bittersweet💜
Exactly!!
I'm sure someone must have mentioned it but BTS has used the metaphor of desert/ocean several times before (off the top of my head, at least in the hidden track Sea off of LY:Her and also in Black Swan). The desert sort of represents hardship, their struggle in the music industry, while the ocean represents success.
So I took them being in the desert as another way to throwback to their humble beginning - they started in the "desert" and they do talk about "going back to square one" in the song. I guess implying that whatever "new chapter" they're embarking on still starts in the desert.
And the ocean sounds are like....echoes of the fact that they've found so much success. But as they say, their success isn't their main focus, so they are centering the MV on their difficult journey instead - hence why the ocean is only there in the background.
it's not a goodbye. their other two new songs have lines like "Get ready, get ready, get ready, get ready, get ready, more in the future" and "I’ll be with you for the rest of my life". also i agree that this doesn't sound like they are about to pause because of the enlistment. about that can't really say anything until there's a final decision if they will serve or not. one of my guesses is that we may get a lof of solo works soon, hobi is preparing a mixtape and he will headline a festival this summer with an 1h set, we think he's about to drop something, bc his first mixtape was around half an hour only. also as far as we know rm said he want to release his project in 2022, and both jk and tae are in the work with their own mixtapes
you are making a lot of assumptions about things that haven't been confirmed at all lol
@@Vulpix298 didn't I say that it's my guesses 💀 can't have them now or what
@@Vulpix298 well the goverment relies on bts and wont let them go to the military sorry. its just how it is. bts is needed and will NOT go to the military duty as of now. it is def not a goodbye song, theyre literally saying bye to the chapter of youth, to move on to a more adult more them chapter, as said in the song. so whether you want them to come and bring the best to come or not, they will deliver.
Well this for sure...jin, suga, jhope and rm....are all eligible for military service...if happens that they will go...probably 2 members every year...we still don't know....but jin and suga for sure....i love this songs....a more ballad hiphop vibes....that they don't need to do a hard choreo...
@@missho3491 Technically all of the members are eligible for military service. You don't have to be almost 30 to serve. E.g. Day6's Dowoon is a 95liner just like V and Jimin and he went to army earlier this year to shorten the hiatus of the band as a whole. I'm not saying BTS would do that, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did. We just don't know what BTS plans for enlistment so we have to wait and see. There's still at least a few months before we find out.
I’m in love with this music video. All the elements and homages to their past videos. And at the end they are sitting in the same spots on the bus that they were on the train. This song has my heart!
It's about what I expected from them and it is truly meaningful for an ARMY like me. It's full of so many easter eggs and nostalgia. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next. Whatever they do, ARMY will be by their side. Also, their visuals!!!!!
I really loved this cb, it was genuinely so wholesome. I don’t think it’s a goodbye tbh they’ve said they will continue and one of their in-house producers had an interview talking about their next album. however the military situation is so tricky bc there was a final decision that was supposed to be made like a month ago but there’s still no news about it so I guess we’ll see what happens.
I love Yet To Come - I really love the melody and truthful lyrics. I can already envision an instrumental orchestration to this song highlighted by piano and strings.
You should listen to Run BTS on the Proof album, it has that mix of hip hop and rock sound with crazy vocals and melodies. Also, dis-ease (on BE album) was the one with the hip hop sound. Love your reaction, as always!
Pd if you want to listen to the unreleased songs "demos", you would have to buy the album because the 3rd cd is not available on Spotify or iTunes, only on the album.
I believe that they will fulfill their military service. I don't know if the time will be shortened or not. But I think they know that if they even accept a possible exemption from military service, they will never get peace and acceptance in their own country. The Korean media will not ignore this. I hope they can all go at once. And I think there will be another comeback after that. They must have a lot prepared and in progress for this. Suga said in an interview a while ago that they love hip hop and were working towards that. So I believe that the best is really yet to come. This album was not for the mainstream or Grammy. It was for the Army. And I think that, sometimes, breaking the expectations of others people is a good thing, because it prevents you from becoming slave of it.
I hope they don't go at all, fuck forced service and fuck the macho toxic masculinity culture of the military. I hope they get their exemption as they deserve and never have to be exposed to that bullshit. No one deserve that. The Korean public supports an exemption because they have done more for the country than any of the sports stars and classical musicians who do get exemptions normally.
100% agree, it's all in their best interest to go all at once!
Honestly, this is what I've been thinking since they started promoting this release. It's almost as if they're saying good-bye for now. I'm pretty sure we'll see the announcement for Seokjin's and maybe Yoongi's military enlistment at the very least, if not all seven, after these promotions.
True, and they already get so much hate in their own country. Everybody is just waiting to pounce on them if they are exempted, like vultures or a shark feeding frenzy. It is so great their support is global, because they can’t count on fairness in their country where the music industry is so vicious and cut throat.
well said Bruna! 👍
Their last comeback PTD was shot in the dessert and as R M said they are ending the PTD era and now hopping on the bus for the next chapter of their lives
I think they are going to the military in the end of the year, so this a goodbye for now, that's why the antology album came with 9 years of carrer, not 10. They are closing this chapter now, but hoping and antecipaing new things. That's why has this feeling of goodbye, finalization and hope. They are telling armys that everything is okay, they didn't lose their essence (but i dont think they are going to replicate their old concepts and vibe, it is just a message about their roots) and the future will be beautiful too (new songs when they come back to the military)
Yeah, that's my thinking too
Nah, they were suppose to released this waaay before , but cuz of the pandemic they have to put it down since you can't do this kind of proyects with the pandemic restrictions.
This is the end of the chapter of the 7 years contract, now after this they will do what they have planned with this new 7 years contract.
@@mev9752 they renewed in 2018 and this is their ninth year...so it's not the end of their seven year contract. technically, they're like 2 years into their second contract (which will end in 2025 and yes, i looked that up). that said, something that was meant to be released before doesn't mean the meaning can't change or adjust.
Have you been keeping up about military situation? Is still unknown if they’re gonna be exempted, or be going all together lastly only serving for one month. It’s still in discussion.
they said this was closing one chapter and beginning another. this isn't a goodbye. this is a beginning.
I'm not an army but I do casually listen to bts's music, especially their old songs, and I would like to give them props for making this type of video now. I really enjoyed the song because like PD said, it is reminiscent of their old ballad/hip hop style which I particularly like. This song, and the mv, were made specifically for their armys, and I think that was the right move. I think it was a perfect title track for an anthology. Congratulations armies for receiving such a special gift to share with your favorite group.
thankss🤧💖
When casual listeners apreciate and understand this song more than some actual army. Thank you for your words!💜
@@nvmd6933 yess you're right and it's absolutely sad buuut life goes on
@@kadi_gnigue that's true😊
@@nvmd6933 I can relate to the video because GOT7's title song was also for their fans and there were critics saying one of the bsides was a better comeback song. Enjoy the gift you were given and don't let negativity ruin your moment. 💚
I love love this song. It's a perfect song for their anthology album
I loved this song, I even cried at the premier. I'm thinking this song is a promise to ARMY, that even if they go for a while (military service) they'll come back for more, cause they are as passionate as always about music. Honestly is one of my favorite BTS songs to date.
A lot of people think this is a goodbye, and I honestly don't see it like that at all. I do get the sense of finality it has, but it doesn't seem like a finale, it seems to me like a beginning more than anything. I think this album was special to celebrate their anniversary (they might have to go to the military before the 10th anniversary, hence why they wouldn't be able to release it then), but I don't know why I get the feeling that we'll be getting another comeback before the end of the year, I guess we'll have to see. It depends on a lot of different things, but it does feel like they are giving closure to a lot of stuff in order to move forward in a new direction. One thing I know for sure is that it is not a finale, at least not for them, just the end of an era.
i love this song, now you need to listen "run bts" it's the sound of old bts
Only those who that understands BTS's music,theories,messages and what they stand for can grasp their 'YTC' m/v. All the references from the different eras was very touching. It also reminded us of how we ended up becoming armys and supporting BTS. They've also helped us in many ways. 💜⁷
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick & Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existential catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂
This is album is an anthology album.
It means that the album is all about BTS and this for the ARMYs.
They didnt mean to target general public.
I dont know why some people here expected a fun and banger song. If you dont appreciate it then this is not for you.
But have you heard Run BTS? Now that's a banger song.
As a "newer" ARMY, l think this encourages us to go back and see their how "over night success" really came about. 😆 There's a lot of history many international fans have missed out on & so giving us a glimpse into their journey, and evolution, is great.
Chapter 2 might mean more individual tracks & or albums, or sub-line releases, but whatever is to come, as long as they are personally motivated can only mean great music is yet to come... 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
This might be an unpopular POV but I feel this song is specifically for long-time ARMY and not new fans. That said, I also think it's EXTREMELY CLEVER because, if "the worst" happens and they go off on their military service we will all say, "OMG, they really were saying goodbye in the sweetest, most positive way!" So either way--considering how this had to release before there was any clarity (or at least an official statement) regarding their military service--it will totally work. Genius (of course). I love the top and bottom frames coming together in the last shot (as though our eyes are closing)...from the "No More Dream" bus to the suggestion of our eyes closing--into a new dream?
Have you seen Suga’s album notes?
That's not unpopular. It literally is for the fans. There's no way you would get the references in the MV if you weren't a fan
the top and bottom frames coming together is something their storyline MVs did during HYYH era
What I hope happens:
1. If they all go to the military together (preferred), BigHit probably has some things that are going to be going out while they are in the military pre-filmed, pre-recorded.
2. If they go to the military in sections or solo, solo/duo activity that continues the storyline until they're all back together. Examples: solo music, acting in BU films/television, etc.
As a fan of groups that have been through the gruelling military wait, you’ll definitely get either one of that! Enjoy all the solo/unit work, stay patient, and use all your pent up energy for the years of waiting to support their comeback after. There’s a reason why when big groups comeback from the military they blowup a whole lot!
They’ll get to catch a bit of a break; some of them come back glowy and more hungry to perform than ever.
I have a feeling that BTS is about to announce that they are going to the military. The way #YetToCome ended is giving me that vibe. Like they are saying goodbye but we will be back 🥹.
That's what I think too, but they'll probably do a world tour before they enlist.
Run BTS is best BTS song since mots7
Where’s the lie, it ate
Kelso Sand Dunes, about halfway between LA and Las Vegas, in Mojave Desert. Were you trying to think of "Just One Day?" The opening scene is from that MV! This feels like a "We are going to the military but will be back" to me. Maybe not everyone, but for sure Jin is going soon.
This video made me so emotional, it was so simple but it was done so well. This album and MV give MAJOR goodbye vibes, similar to Big Bang’s still life, I cried the whole time🥲
I love how the words that Suga says as the bus from No More Dream comes into view are "Do you have a dream?", which sounds just like the "What's your dream?" from that song :(
I was hoping for this reaction! I wasn't sure we'd get to see it, since the video doesn't have a whole lot to talk about (except for the references, of course), but I'm really glad you decided to upload it PD! I always love to hear your take on new releases ^^
I was really happy to see them referencing Just One Day, since it's one of my favourite BTS songs, but overral I'd say all the references are well done. Love the song (and lyrics!), and also agree that it's one of their most philosophical songs, which i really appreciate. It was probably not the kind of song most of the fandom was expecting (myself included, if I'm being honest), but it's better than anything I hoped for.
As for what they'll be doing next, this does feel like a goodbye in a way. A happy goodbye, the end of a chapter that is filled with hope for an even better future, I think that's the conclusion most people are reaching. But as for anything more than that, i have no clue. There's the enlistment situation that will have to be solved soon, but I don't think I have any right to comment on that, so I'll just wait for any official announcements and see how things go from there. Whatever happens, happens. I'm sure that no matter what they'll keep improving and being sucessful, and if they're really starting a new chapter in their careers, then I can't wait to see where it takes them ^^
i really feel like this comeback is perfect for the album they're releasing with it, wrapping up their journey so far, and i like to believe like most of the armys, they're going to come back in a few months opening a new chapter with a full album, because if the pandemic didn't happen, this comeback was perfect for 2020 (their 7th anniversary, 7 is very special to them) since they were building up all their performances on awards shows during 2018-2019 to this as they continuosly performed their past songs, but since corona happened in 2020, they had to cancel it, and write new songs relating to the experiences with the pandemic thus the release of BE, and releasing the full-english tracks.
This is a video between BTS & ARMY. General Public are not going to get all the references ARMY will get that they're on a bus moving forward. This was a walk down memory lane for BTS & ARMY. It's video memories. It's a warm blanket or a hug. It's fun to reminisce. When you see RM's part. funky trees, the container, the gas pumps are where RM worked. Hobi making the hand gestures he made while sitting on top of the train. Every segment that you just watched was a direct link to their past and then instead of getting on the train, they get back on the original bus and are moving forward. Next chapters of their lives!
Always waiting for PD’s reaction!!!
Immediately listen to "Run BTS" and "For Youth". You will be amazed!
with the enlistment thingy, hybe is still waiting for the government (idk what to call them) for their response. they've mentioned before that they will have an answer at the end of april, it's already june. we all know bighit, they definitely have plan A to Z with how things are happening rn.
(my prediction) either jin enlists alone, and the other starts doing subunits/solo debuts. or all of them enlisting together (18months). the last album release was 19months ago (BE album) so i think armys can wait for 18 months (excluding the releases of their english single). plus they all said that if they're called, they'll be doing their duties as korean men. but the government (?) has to have their answer by now, for us to know and what bighit should do next. it's already 6months into 2022, time is ticking.
@@gl6265 I think the same thing, I think they are most definitely going to enlist, but they might as well have another comeback before december. They just released 3 new songs in this album, but I have this feeling that they have recorded and are recording more songs (I have absolutely no proof for this, it's just my gut feeling), but my theory is that either they have another comeback before the end of the year, or bighit is going to release several surprises while the members are gone.
I'd prefer they went together than not having ot7 for years 😭
If they start to enlist by batches we will not have another BTS complete work in seven years. So it is not only two years of wait, is Jin, after Suga, they return and RM and J-Hope, after V and Jimin (can I be happy that they can have the opportunity to support each other during that time) and lastly when they return JK has to go.
I think it will be their solo work what we will start to see.
This may be the reason V mixtape was delayed and why Rap line is preparing their mixtapes for any time after this comeback.
Korean goverment I doubt want to lost the proofits that BTS brings them. I think is clear the only ones that wants them enlisted are some factions of the military and some people that can not acept another person can gain such "privilege" only for singing.
Truth is that BTS is doing more for their country as BTS than they might ever will do as soldiers, because in a war they are going to be cannon fodder or guerrilla soldiers (ask Ukraine), usefull but they do not win wars. Wars needs money and BTS brings money, so the ones that understand that knows that BTS should do their service bringing money to their country as BTS. The goverment should be promoting them all they can so they bring more money for the next two years and then release them to do as they want, but what can I know?
But we weren’t here just for their music, their goofiness, laughs, loveliness, child like pure hearts, chatty sessions for nothing, and so much more…we will miss them oh so terribly in every way! Korean government, new president, … wake up and smell the coffee… god, what a undeceive group of politicians, dragging this issue forever… BTS forever!
no way jin would enlist alone? they know damn well it wouldn't be ot7 for another 5 years. I don't think bts is going to do a full 18 month enlistment either. Korea knows that bts is bringing all they money, tourists,etc. Plus their are stadiums being built right now so bts can have more concerts in Korea and construction ends in 2024. Their was that discussion of them having a 4 week training of basic training. Korea isn't dumb and BTS won't be gone for long.
I love this song so so much! I think it's probably one of my favourite BTS tracks.
To me it does feel like a good-bye for now. I'm thinking "what comes next" is solo careers (j-hope is headlining Lollapalooza!!) and also whatever is next in Army's life while they are gone as a group. I think they're throwing an uplifting and reassuring message to the fans while simultaneously talking about their own careers.
And then when they finish with the military service, we'll see.
I'm excited for lollapalooza too...hoping for hope world 2
hi pd! it’s been a few days but it was just announced that bts will be taking a break from group activities, w the exception of a few run bts episodes, to focus on their solo careers. after hearing this news, i think that this title track and the cb in general makes a lot of sense. i assume that some members will be enlisting during this break. nevertheless, i’m very relieved that the group was able to share how they felt these past few years. i highly suggest that you watch the festa anniversary video where they announced this news (whether you watch it on patreon or on your own). it gives a lot of insight on how and why they’ve decided to take a break. thank you again for the great video! edit: i’d also like to add that this break was supposed to happen right after mots7 tour (evidently heard their struggles throughout the album, esp black swan) but the pandemic changed everything. again, they explain everything in detail via the festa video!
I like your reactions because I think you are very objective. I am an army and I loved the song, plus I felt that I perfectly understood the message they gave and the stages of their musical history. It was emotional and meaningful, I'm looking forward to what's to come
They actually shot it in Riverside County California!
Thank you. I kept telling people they did NOT film in Vegas. How did I know? See if you can figure it out. The clue is Jin's hands when he covers V's eyes.
At first, I felt quite sad and overwhelmed with mixed emotions after I watched mv and heard the song. I mean let’s be honest, this is not how they usually do a come back, right? For other comebacks, all 7 members gathered around and did a count down some mins before.
And the way they’re promoting this come back, seems on the very quiet side as well- usually, with tonite shows or late late shows, radio studio s, interviews, etc are lined up right away, right?
I definitely felt it is a song dedicated for army -especially the old ones, thanking them once again for being there for BTS. In fact, that was what rm said for the comeback interview. So I get that and also get past references to previous MVs, and such.
However, I also really felt this emotion that they will be ‘leaving’ their current BTS ways. Meaning, maybe we won’t see any more of those rigorous (or not) dance MVs or choreo w all 7 as before, or they may start on their movie career, or some may serve military and who knows, some may get even married? I mean I can go on but I really think they are saying ‘goodbye’ to something. I know on the surface, yes, this is an anthology and the concept behind the album but this is not just closing the current chapter. I feel they may do solo stuff, (j hope is already starting it- very first solo performance at the upcoming festival), and what else I don’t know yet.
But the lyrics and the way they setup the mood of this song gives me the vibe they might have a break, or military, or acting, whatever each member want to do if they don’t have to do a group thing.
It kinda makes sense, too. Their contract ends in 3-4 years? So I am sure they will be still working as BTS member but can you imagine going through the whole thing again? Like come back w a killing song and it shoots to billboard #1, then extraneous promo schedule, performance, countless interviews, another dash at Grammys (as if anything will ever change), etc. perhaps, all that, doing again may feel useless at this point to them. And I can hear what they are saying about those issues as they honestly sang it in this song.
They came back to the root and really looked into themselves on how they want to live, move forward w their career, etc, the ultimate happiness, what will make them happy at this point m, not really as a group but as an individual, I am sure.
Personally, the very last scene made me feel very sad and strange (aside all that explanation). The way they are wearing all white (as if they are not part of this world, either dream or from the heaven or something) and yes, they smile a bit but not like happily making a huge smile either. It felt like ‘yeah, we are glad we were able to make it and experience all the great so far doing what we did. But the time has come and we must find our ways, differently.’ like that.
Of course, my selfish mind does not ever want them to be apart for any reasons or do not want to feel ‘any kind of separation’ from them whether it’s a short or long term.
But I also can understand how tired they might be by now and truly need time to take a break emotionally and physically. if they do their solo work, it will be a lot lighter(?) than having this status w pressure as BTS, so it makes sense if that is what will happen.
And I wish them all the best and love for their future endeavors.
They returned us so much love as artists (no one does that) and their pure hearts really have touched every one of us. Wish them to be healthy and happy always whatever comes next!
I really relate to your comment here. For me I actually felt the sadness after the initial happiness, hope and nostalgia in the song. And now it's still tinged with sadness but reading your comment here brought some more peace of mind for me. It's a reality we all have face to that whatever they decide for their career is simply that, their decision. I guess the impact of a possible goodbye really hit me when I listened to For Youth. That song really broke me down. But all in all I want them to be happy in whatever they choose to do. It's just mixed emotions like you said.
i wanna hear no slander, this song was for us armys and our beautiful bond with bts 😭
I think they're going to do some solo work maybe as some members enlist (as some members alluded to their solo albums being released) then come back together as a group
I thought the same, the song felt like goodbye till we meet again and I almost died thinking about that
@@tammerkviladze1759 Same :'( I think they have the passion to come back together as a group but nonetheless my heart feels sad for the very likely break while they enlist.
It's definitely one of those songs that gets better the more you listen to it......I get more and more emotional and fall in love with the melody and lyrics the more I listen to it
Run BTS is a korean hip-hop track on the album. It sounds like BTS' early era songs. The raw vocals, the grittiness, definitely brings back a lot of memories
Just wanted to say I appreciate your videos. Gives me inspiration to make my own content.
Keep up the amazing work! ❤️
I love how this title track is like a little secret between BTS and the army.... Normal people won't understand; why are they in a desert, what a school bus doing there, why is a whole ass statue standing there, why is their piano and flowers, why is there a ferry round in middle of a desert, what's a container doing there, why is their ocean sounds in a desert and many more.
all the call backs to previous eras was so touching 😭
Thank you. Your reviews are always the best!
I can not wait for you to check out Run BTS it is so reminiscent of their old school stuff but so fresh and new and out of the box for them and I think you would really like it the guitar riffs the vocals the stacking of vocals of the composition of it is totally different for them and it's epic and it's a banger so you should check it out.
I love that there are the references from the props and costumes, some lyrics but also some identical shots from old music videos.
the song feels reminiscent of the past while looking forward to the future, I think it's took me a couple listens to completely fall for yet to come, but it's really good. jhope's rap into the group part feels like a string of consciousness. also super recommend PD listen to their new bsides and cd3 (with all the demos), they're really worth it! (I know you said you would, I just want to hype them up haha)
I think for the military they already made up their mind regardless of the government and i think they'll serve in the military and they'll be focusing on solo activities and doing a lot of concerts for the rest of this year. jhope is announced as headliner for loolapaloza festival he'll be performing for an hour on that festival
Maybe I'm just reaching but I SWEAR their formation in the beginning on the chairs is a reference to Just One Day mv
Yes you are right
Class:y had the second half of their debut!
The song is called classy!
For godsake some people here in the comments just don't know what an Anthology Album is.
You should check out Run BTS. It’s a really fresh sound. Everyone who listens to it loves it!!
Excited to watch this!
V's reference with the suit and the rose is from 'boy with luv'
perfect song for armyyyyy.. perfect rap, beautiful vocal too. thanks for a great analysis as always, PD!!!
I was sad the first time I listened to Yet To Come (like to good-bye) but after listening the second time it gave hope and I was smiling.
I am having a strong feeling about bts releasing another music video very soon , as the title and lyrics are saying . Also it doesn't make any sense that hybe spent all this time of bts just to shoot the music video alone , hardly it will take a maximum of 15 days to shoot the mv . So i am assuming that soon they are gonna release a really high budget song that is going to be another record breaker .
It felt like a montage , a recap off all they accomplished that itself was truly a beautiful sight to see and remember
It's got history..
beautiful song💜
I'm convinced it was shot when they were in Vegas. Taehyung uploaded clips to his instagram where he was just demolished by a sandstorm lol.
I saw someone say that the whole setting with the sand and sea sounds could be a reference to Sea a hidden track on Love Yourself: Her (2017)
1:47 화양연화 on stage : prologue JK did the same move there
1:52 same formation as the beginning of Just One Day
2:26 Jin is wearing the same clothing in DNA, also the hand movement looks like what happens in the end of Fake Love
2:33 V is referencing back to Boy in Luv, with clothing, desk and rose
3:03 Spring Day
3:17 Blood Sweat & Tears
3:21 Spring Day, Jimin wears the same clothes and the shoes scene is apparent
3:30 In wings short films Suga can be seen playing on a same piano
Also the flowers in the background I saw somewhere are Smeraldo (blue ones) that can be referencing The Truth Untold
3:40 Train container on Run
3:50 Train is from Spring Day and J-Hope can be seen sitting on it
4:03 the car could indeed be traced back to the HYYH era, in Run they are all sitting in it
4:17 Jimin's pose is resembling the one in DNA
4:22 this scene is the same as in BST but V and Jin have changed places
4:26 No More Dream bus
4:36 apart from all the running in Run this scene reminds me of the running scenes on Not Today but we see Jimin looking back instead of JK
5:07 the hand gesture V is doing was previously done by Jin is Spring day
That's all I could catch, tell me if you know more!
I have no clue what BTS will be doing next but they've been hinting at a world tour for a while now so we're hoping they might announce that soon
i love how this song gave me early bts vibes. love all the references and looking forward to their new stuff
Jin - DNA & Fake Love
V - Boy in Luv
Jung Kook - Spring Day
Jimin - Spring Day (shoes) & DNA
Suga - Wing (piano)
RM - Run & I need U
JHope - Spring Day (train - same outfit)
**All member pickup truck - MV Run
** V & Jin swap hand from MV Blood Sweer Tear
** Bus from MV No More Dream (debut song)
** V hand gesture MV Spring Day (Jin)
**seat all member in the beginning from MV Just one day
what i notice too is their seating arrangement being identical to just one day stage arrangement!
Yes! Please check the rest of the songs, there's also new rock-hip hop song you'll like, a ballad and 2 unreleased songs which give dark and wild/skool luv affair vibes
It's probably already been said plenty at this point but Tae in the suit and the flower is a reference to Boy in Luv 👌🏻
There are two new songs apart from this one on the album, Run BTS and For youth!
I feel the same as you
I'm looking forward to their future
Maybe the next chapter is them not disbanding but focusing on their individual creativity like j hope is one of the headliner of concert lollipaz
I agree that their English songs and their hybrid Korean-English and all Korean songs are on a totally different level. I do like and miss their old sound and style. If they do go back to their roots, that would be awesome!
12:42 about the desert and the sound of waves, it's in reference to the hidden track, "Sea" on their [Love Yourself: Her] album, it was only available to hear if you played it on their physical album CDs, though they've since uploaded it to soundcloud. In it they use the imagery of "where the desert meets the sea" to describe how they felt about past hardships and their current success. Metaphorically, they'd been walking endlessly in a desert for a long time, just putting one foot in front of the other, and now they can hear the sound of waves and feel they've reached the ocean, but who's to say that it's the ocean? Maybe it was just a blue desert.
That is so beautiful. I love it. 💜
Like your reactions. 🇹🇷
its a perfect song for an anthology album, it wraps up all the nine years in one song/mv and gets me very excited for their new chapter that is yet to come 🤪
hi pd!! this part 12:33 that you're talking about is actually a reference from their song Sea. the lyrics "In the end, we reached the mirage and it became our reality
The scary desert became the ocean with our blood, sweat and tears
But why is there this fear in between the happiness?
Because we know too well that this place is really a desert"
their first MV, No More Dream showed them getting off the yellow bus and now that they're entering Chapter 2, they got on the bus once again. once they got inside, we can finally hear the waves, symbolizing the new chapter, leaving the desert behind.
I think it’s a statement of intention to army that there will be some changes in their direction as a group for a while...a new chapter begins. I think because of the enlistment they might try doing some solo work before going. We know Hobi is doing Lollapalooza, there are mixtapes in the works for rm, Suga, hobi, jk and V. There are collabs that were hinted with Charlie Puth and Snoop. I think they will do this before they leave for the military. We don’t know if they will all go together or it might be staggered...the Hyung line first then Maknae line. This will shorten the time when all of them will be inactive. If they have solo projects they may let the hyung line go first with their release...then when they go to the military the maknae line could release their mixtapes before going to military. When the hyung line comes back they can release content while waiting for everyone to get back. Then they can make the big BTS comeback whiich can be seen as their third chapter. I think it will be something radical like this Cos simply going more hip hop again is not a new chapter when they easily go from one genre to another in one album. I am truly excited for what’s to come...I’d like to see more of the music they feel will define them individually. We’ve seen this from the rap line but not the vocal line so much. Although they all tested the waters with their OST a mixtape will show their individual identity as solo artists. I do wonder if Jimin is working on something too. With Jin He never mentioned anything but with promo for proof and his turning 30 in December, he probably won’t release a mixtape...hopefully other OSTs.
I absolutely love the song. It giv3s me Faith Evans, P. Diddy 90s vibe.
I've been waiting for this
The song is beautiful and perfect for this type of album. Even more so the MV. A beautiful way to display all the memories 😍😍 🏜🌊
It does feel like a goodbye but also not. I totally agree that it's more hopeful than anything else. I do have a few scenarios in my head of what comes next but we'll just have to wait and see. I just know that I trust them. 💜💜💜
Also, I would love a new album🥰😅
This is like a closure of the first chapter, paying tribute to it and a promise that the second chapter is gonna be even better, even more hopeful 💜
