John Marcus if your reasoning for not listening to a group is “they are ‘gay’ to listen to” them YOU are a homophobic asshole who will never open yourself to new experiences because you’re stuck in negative and ignorant views.
John Marcus yes but in stating that you are implying that it’s okay if people see what BTS do as “gay” because you’re original comment is trying to argue against mine. So defending people who think that way is just as bad as thinking that way.
A reporter once talked about how they were supposed to interview them backstage after a performance but they literally were using oxygen masks so they felt bad about asking them questions. They give it their all
Every Army whom are with them from the start knew about this. It's on their movies, docu series. They never hide anything at what's happening backstage, injuries and all. We first saw it on their WINGS Tour. They always give their all for their fans. How can you not reciprocate the love? 🥺💜
Aww 😢 i didn't know about it .. i just started to watch and like them on september this year .. i still have a long way to go learning about the guys ..
The concerts are impressive. They don’t prepare such theatrical setting like this but the sets are amazing, super professional, although it’s the same performance every day feels different. Plus the crowd. It’s amazing
i was hoping you guys would do a reaction for this performance. this was the first time i saw bts perform at an award show and tbh the grammys are gonna wish they didn't snub bts because they absolutely killed it here.
I was lucky enough to see BTS at Wembley stadium in London both nights in June & it was the best two concert nights of my life! And I've been to A LOT of gigs in the last 20 yrs (I'm 40!)! Their performance level is out of this world & I assure u that their stadium shows are just as spectacular, if not more (tho no horses or other live animals! ;-) They actually borrowed some staging frm their tour for this performance so u can just imagine! I can't wait for their next album & tour. Idc how much it costs, it's so worth it!
@@user-lr1jf7jc5t Omg, I loved the MOTS:7 cb so much! Their choreo, MVs, Corden/Fallon stages & K-stages were masterpieces (so sad they cudn't have audiences on the K-shows but understandable), I cud tell they worked SO HARD & passionately for this, as always. I love the whole album & solos but my personal fave songs are Louder than Bombs & We are Bulletproof: the Eternal. I know when they finally get to tour, hearing them sing WAB: the Eternal will be the end of me...but totally worth it!
@@ButterflyLilyElla Exactly I totally loved the album although LY: tear still remains my fav album. My personal favorites are zero O'clock, my time, shadow and louder than bombs. This was literally their worst comeback because they didn't get to showcase their stages to the fans all due to this pandemic, Namjoon said they were angry they werent able to do this live for their fans or do the concert. I hope this pandemic will be over soon so that both bts and Armys will be re-united and yes, it'll be the best feeling for both the 7 artists and their armys.
@@user-lr1jf7jc5t Omg definitely! Their 1st live concert w/ an audience after all this is gonna be so powerful & emotional! & that VLive w/ Joon was so moving, I rlly felt for him & the guys. Performing to an audience is what they were born to do after all. But Idc how long I have to wait, I will always be here for them!
I don’t think the camera people and audience at the game or people watching the super bowel from home can handle BTS doing the halftime show, especially if they go all out like they did at this award show and if they got to do it they definitely go all out because they don’t do anything smell
as much as i want it tbh i also dont want it cause super bowl locals are pretty darn racist, if BEYONCE got so much heat for hers imagine them. i dont want em in that position.
@@nataliepham6119 They record the scene with the horses before without the sound of the crowd, the explosions and the songs etc, then, during the performance, for the people watching through the tv or the big screens in the arena where the award show is being held, the image being show is the previously recorded (the sound comes from the actual live performance). If you were there at the award show and looked at the stage, there wouldn't be any horses, only if you looked at the screen. Kinda like how they do VR effects during concerts.
10:43 Those are TXT 😁 they're BTS's baby brother group at their company (there should be 5 of them, but 3 are actually too baby and they can't stay on programs after 10pm I think, so 2 were left at that point 😂)
Tae: "Apollo" god of the sun Jin: "Ares" god of the war Jimin: "Artemis" god of the moon Yoongi: "Hephaestus" god of the fire Jungkook: "Poseidon" god of the water J-Hope: "Zeus" god of the thunder Namjoon: "Dionysus" god of the whine (got this information from a comment under the MMA video) Everyone had a background song that fitted them. Mindblowing performance (especially for an award show). Loved the traditional clothes etc. Nobody can denie that BTS puts a lot of time and effort to realize their dreams. It's just breathtaking
one thing is for sure, bts are among those very rare artists who deserve literally every drop of fame and acclaim that comes their way. truly, i look at them and every time i feel so glad and happy that people like them are succeeding. so good to see.
I loved how surprised Greg was when Jimin did his solo stage. Jimin trained as a contemporary dancer and was the top in his performing high school class. Of all of BTS, he has the widest array of dance skills. His performance brought me to tears.
The Microkosmos part, is CGI because it was filmed earlier, it gives them time to change between Boy with Love and the End Performance. Also, each of them has a unique colored Mic and Ear Piece
I don't know about Star Wars but I do know all BTS members are HUGE MARVEL fans!! They even went to watch Endgame on opening night in the middle of busy schedules😂
BTS planned and coordinated all the preparations for all these MMA stages for 3 months inspite of being on tour and all the other schedules...I just get mind blown and go WOW whenever BTS does something. You can see how detailed they r and how much effort and their genius they put in everything they do. The sincerity, the obvious skills, the genius really comes through. And yes BTS's stadium tour this year was out of this world.
Yesss. I mean, how can this not be the performance of the year or decade? Enjoyed your reactions 😆 Jimin doing this type of dancing is because he has had a contemporary dance background as well as popping and locking, and martial arts in which he may have learned to do that flip. Anyway, throughout the performance are some of the songs they’ve done over the years. I don’t remember which ones you’ve reacted to before, but I think there’s a music video for almost all of them. 1. RM doing “Intro: Persona” and the music video is titled “Map of the Soul: Persona ‘Persona’ Comeback Trailer” 2. Boy In Luv mv 3. Boy With Luv mv 4. Mikrokosmos - no mv, but there’s a lyric video if you’re interested 5. V’s solo to instrumental remix to “No More Dream” and there’s a mv (this is their debut song/first single as BTS in 2013!) 6. Jin’s solo to instrum. remix to “Danger” (2014) which has a mv, but I actually think the dance practice is worth watching too. 7. Jimin’s solo to instrum. piano/strings version of “I Need U” (2015) has a mv. Billboard listed this as one of the songs that define a decade or something? Someone correct me. 8. Suga’s solo to instrum. remix “Fire” (2016) which I think you reacted to already. 9. Jungkook’s solo to instrum. remix “Save Me” (2016) and there’s a mv. Actually, if you watch this mv, the making of the mv is also interesting. Weather was not their friend lol. 10. RM and all of BTS perform “Dionysus” (2019), transitions to and out of “N.O” (2013) with some extended dubstep mix, and back into finishing of “Dionysus.” I don’t remember if you’ve reacted to it already, but they have the dance practice for it and also the live comeback stage performance of it. No mv.
Korean award shows have camera work, set designs, and pyro down to a science. I mean theyre not perfect for sure there has been lots if time when mics cut out and cameras didnt catch the best part but for the most part they are tiers above american ones. And if a major award show like mma or mama had something go wrong they'd be in some serious hot water.
I'm glad you finally did this!! They practiced for THREE MONTHS for this performance, they honestly killed it. It's the best performance I've ever seen tbh. Also, don't worry, Jimin's I NEED U contemporary dance solo also made me tear up.
Jimin is a contemporary dance major and was the top student of his arts school, his talent is on another level. I would love to see you guys react to more performances by him
So glad to see you guys enjoying it. Speaking of superheroes, they do have a fun song about being modern day superheroes called Anpanman which is a reference to a japanese superhero thats made of bread. And saves kids by feeding them bread from his head 😁
well to be honest. They do run on treadmill and practice singing to have breath control. They've mentioned it before haha There's a performance explanation that no one asked for : Bts like to do this thing where they keep hints of their next album in their performance . The introduction video is hinting at their next album . Their album Map of the soul: persona is inspired by Jung's map of the soul where Jung divides the human personality into different masks . They're focusing on Shadow,ego and persona. So the introduction is probably a hint to their new album Map of the soul:shadow with how all the shadows were walking whole they were sleeping. They performed boy in luv which was a song from 2014 trying to represent young love and right after its sequel boy with love that shows their mature outlook towards love. The mikocosmos was not actually just cgi but hologram that they had set up for the live performance ( it was pre-recorded but that just means they performed live to the audience just before the show started. ) The texts being shown actually says "I love you" in different languages. The Dionysus performance: The horn at the start represents Dionysius Each member is acting as a Greek god V - Apollo God of sun Jin -Ares God of war Jimin- forgot the name but God of Moon Suga -Hephaestus god of fire Jungkook-Posideon god of water Jhope- zesus god of lighting And finally my boy RM - Dionysus (holding his famous staff that is supposed to produce unlimited wine) The light bulbs coming down to make a constellation represents the Corona Borealis a crown Dionysus gives to his wife Ariadne which he later places to the sky. The ladies throwing flower petals are creating a pathway to her coronation. Finally horses (That scene too was pre-recorded since it wouldn't be good for horses to be on the stage where there is so much fireworks and noise). The man in the middle is wearing a mask is Demaratus who exhiled by the King of Sparta and wears a veil as a show of anger to the King that defied him ( probably a subtle shade to the big companies that try to bring bts down but you never know )
BTS dropped huge CB hints for their next album in the “Dionysus” performance at the end. The album was inspired by Carl Jung’s theories on Individuation. Jung believed Dionysus was the connection btwn persona-shadow-ego (see writing of persona-shadow-ego on wall in RM intro Persona Performance). Dionysus=focus on the individual (in jung’s terms), therefore I.e. each member got a solo stage. Mythological archetypes for each members intro - Taehyung: Apollo, Jin: Aries, Jimin: Artemis, Suga: Hades, Jungkook: Poseidon, Hobi: Zeus, RM: Dionysus. Research and the horses and maidens onstage are all tied to Dionysus. The 7 lights when joined forms The Crown of Ariadne (named after Dionysus’ wife and after she died he made it into a constellation). So we’ll have to see how it transpires when they release their next album, most likely titled ‘shadow’! And @24:34 aw Greg I saw you wipe those tears:)) Understandable. Jimin is a beautiful and elegant dancer!!
They won 8 awards before this performance. 5 of the Dasaengs, Grand awards. I still can't believe it was just an award show.😉 I've been to 3 of their concerts in Chicago. My best tickets where I could make them out easily with the naked eye, but not there facial expressions, was $400 at a resellers. Front rows seats I've seen go for over $1,000. I hope you get to go someday. It really is amazing. You're on a high for weeks afterwards. 💜
Loved this reaction, you had me laughing throughout! And yes it’s definitely one of their best performances ever. Dionysus is the hypest song it’s impossible not to headbang while listening to it! And yes John, if they come back to LA next year you have to go! I have loved watching you guys slowly become armys, it’s been lovely.
But no seriously, there are medics on standby on their shows, although I think it's standard procedure for the venue (but not sure lol). We were on the standing area for their Hong Kong Love Yourself Tour, and every now and then, medics would come with wheelchairs to escort out people who've fainted or fallen ill in the middle of the concert. But I think it has more to do with the exhaustion of the actual day (especially if they've lined up for the merch beforehand), rather than actually seeing the boys. But. I have to say that you really have to see them live, even if you're just a bit of a fan. You won't regret it, I promise. It's just that you'll have to fight for your tickets if you want good seats 😂😂😂
After this this performance, a few days later they perform at MAMA award with great performance too. Please check them out too. BTS at MAMA award 2019. Thank you for your reaction.
I remember at the end of me watching this I was like western award shows could never I’m sorry whatttt that was a PERFORMANCE 👏🙌 also I hope you guys get to see them live one day because it would be something y’all will never forget loved the reaction 💜
yass, finally, I've been waiting for this... thank u so much for this reaction! This performance really was insane, but then again it's BTS so...they are not just K-POP anymore - they are on whole another level, no one's doing it like them ;))
this was a delight. you guys are a delight im always laughing along with y’all. Thanks for the reaction! Btw Greg, Jimin is a trained contemporary dancer and was top of his class! Glad you got to see this side of him!
I loved their MMA performance so much. I always cry at this specific Mikrokosmos performance too, the song has such a special place in my heart and seeing it performed like that is just too much for my feels to handle.
they meet their fans in fan meetings :D they can sit and talk with them individually, give them art or anything like that as a gift, autographs etc, there are videos from fan meetings, and they are always so wholesome and lovely
Oh annnnnd BTS announced their next tour will start April 2000. As for concert experience you scream and sing along and loose most of your voice. And concert amnesia is a real thing where you straight up forget parts/songs due to being extremely overwhelmed and excited.
boys i made a powerpoint presentation on them and their album trilogy for my music world class in school (thats basically just about the messages in music and their impact on the world, as well as the artists, its like therapy)
Did you see the light bulbs coming down? At the end is a constellation.i think is aquarius but I'm not sure...each one is a star. So nothing it's casual here in the BTS universe. Amazing.
Bts even said in vlive (after grammy's end) that their performance is cool too why they can't get their solo stage. When i heard that. I cried because they are definitely can give 2 times better performance than entire grammy's performer
They do meet their fans (face to face) actually at fan-meet events. Basically the boys sit at a table and the fans go down the row talking to them, giving them gifts, and getting autographs. Only a certain amount of people can go tho (obviously, otherwise we get the “killed by accident” or sitting for 10 hrs problem) so getting in/getting tickets is pretty difficult 😂😂
"I want you- all of you". Feel you! I SO enjoy seeing you giddy and happy about this performance!! Saw them live in june and it was hands down the best consert I've ever seen!(40y old) ✌️🇫🇮
When he said he joined the army for BTS I laughed then I got so sad bcs I remembered Jin and yoongi having to serve there time in the Army starting this year 😟😔😔😢 but for those two years they’re gone we’ll always have them in our thoughts like I’m tearing up even thinking abt the group not being whole for so long........ great now I’m crying goddamn u Greg and your emotion envoking jokes😬✊🏾
When I first watched this I was so shocked the entire time lol. Can’t even imagine how much work went into this performance, they killed it. Definitely the performance of the year; not the lifetime cause I’m sure they’ll outdo themselves next year 🤣
Finally I’ve been waiting for this! It really is the performance of the decade! I cannot think of any other performer individual or group performance that can top it! As usual you guys are entertaining to watch. Merry Christmas to y’all.

PREACH GIRL!
say it louder!!!! thank you
John Marcus if your reasoning for not listening to a group is “they are ‘gay’ to listen to” them YOU are a homophobic asshole who will never open yourself to new experiences because you’re stuck in negative and ignorant views.
@John Marcus it's 2020 dude, saying shit like "oh they're gay" like it's a bad thing is just homophobic and stupid
John Marcus yes but in stating that you are implying that it’s okay if people see what BTS do as “gay” because you’re original comment is trying to argue against mine. So defending people who think that way is just as bad as thinking that way.
A reporter once talked about how they were supposed to interview them backstage after a performance but they literally were using oxygen masks so they felt bad about asking them questions. They give it their all
Really ? Where did you found it ?
Every Army whom are with them from the start knew about this. It's on their movies, docu series. They never hide anything at what's happening backstage, injuries and all. We first saw it on their WINGS Tour. They always give their all for their fans. How can you not reciprocate the love? 🥺💜
@@erinefernandez9317 After perfomances like this, they use oxygen masks. There are videos from different backstages.
Aww 😢 i didn't know about it .. i just started to watch and like them on september this year .. i still have a long way to go learning about the guys ..
@@erinefernandez9317 its okay, its normal to not know everything. I recommend u to watch the Bring the soul movie
fun fact: this performance took three months of preparation !!
really? how do u know
@@maeve332 the media posted about this!
that seems like no time at all tbh, especially considering they were busy doing a shit ton of other stuff at the same time.
The amount of practice they had to do for this performance...it was so epic 🔥I was literally like a concert 💜💜💜🥵🤤😍🥰
Yes 3 mons with 200+ extras for the whole performance.
"They weren't even supposed to perform tonight"😂
I died at that part 😂😂
"What if they send a real horse...?"
Me: "Boy, do I have NEWS for YOU."
Jimin was the top student in his school for contemporary dance.
The concerts are impressive. They don’t prepare such theatrical setting like this but the sets are amazing, super professional, although it’s the same performance every day feels different. Plus the crowd. It’s amazing
Wow, Jimin took the soul out of the guy on the left. I mean... same.
"a 40 minute performance at an AWARD SHOW???"
well they did literally got ALL the major awards there. so. justified I think :D
i was hoping you guys would do a reaction for this performance. this was the first time i saw bts perform at an award show and tbh the grammys are gonna wish they didn't snub bts because they absolutely killed it here.
i think grammy will probably invite them again maybe to even perform...
camila hope they don’t go though. Focus on the cb

@@liynne Absolutely, I'd never want them to do it. They're foreign, Asian and a boy band, they'd kick ass and still get eaten alive no matter what.
I honestly don't think it's a good idea for Super Bowl
If they would do the halftime, the football match would probably be cancelled. Nobody would be interested in football anymore. 😂😂😂
Id rather a champions League final opening waaay bigger audience and less racist fans
“that was a religious experience”
Bts: Say what you want, say what you want
Nobody:
Greg: I want YOU!
LMFAOOOOOO 9:50

Jin is actually Athena. The trojan horse was a gift to Athena and also Athena was the first to tame horses by using reigns.

Oh LMAO I was so amazed that they were able to change for mikrocosmos in like 30 seconds 😂 and it was prerecorded??? No wonder
They needed that or else they would collapse on stage 😉
The solo stages and parts between mikrocosmos and dionysus are all to snatches of some of their biggest hits
Remix versions of the songs
I love how it starts like 'let's check out this group' and after a while you are an A.R.M.Y.

The texts being shown actually says "I love you" in different languages.
The Dionysus performance:
The horn at the start represents Dionysius
Each member is acting as a Greek god
V - Apollo God of sun
Jin -Ares God of war
Jimin- forgot the name but God of Moon
Suga -Hephaestus god of fire
Jungkook-Posideon god of water
Jhope- zesus god of lighting
And finally my boy RM - Dionysus (holding his famous staff that is supposed to produce unlimited wine)
The light bulbs coming down to make a constellation represents the Corona Borealis a crown Dionysus gives to his wife Ariadne which he later places to the sky.
The ladies throwing flower petals are creating a pathway to her coronation.
Finally horses (That scene too was pre-recorded since it wouldn't be good for horses to be on the stage where there is so much fireworks and noise).
The man in the middle is wearing a mask is Demaratus who exhiled by the King of Sparta and wears a veil as a show of anger to the King that defied him ( probably a subtle shade to the big companies that try to bring bts down but you never know )
Ares is the god of war.
Artemis the godess of the moon.
@@eruan469 oops sorry my bad.
BTS dropped huge CB hints for their next album in the “Dionysus” performance at the end. The album was inspired by Carl Jung’s theories on Individuation. Jung believed Dionysus was the connection btwn persona-shadow-ego (see writing of persona-shadow-ego on wall in RM intro Persona Performance).
Dionysus=focus on the individual (in jung’s terms), therefore I.e. each member got a solo stage. Mythological archetypes for each members intro - Taehyung: Apollo, Jin: Aries, Jimin: Artemis, Suga: Hades, Jungkook: Poseidon, Hobi: Zeus, RM: Dionysus. Research and the horses and maidens onstage are all tied to Dionysus. The 7 lights when joined forms The Crown of Ariadne (named after Dionysus’ wife and after she died he made it into a constellation). So we’ll have to see how it transpires when they release their next album, most likely titled ‘shadow’! And @24:34 aw Greg I saw you wipe those tears:)) Understandable. Jimin is a beautiful and elegant dancer!!
Kim Line Need to get them to react to BTS ‘s contribution to music video.
Kim Line yeah. But we know the it will be Shadow because they announced that months ago
Very informative comment..TYSM💜💜💜
They won 8 awards before this performance. 5 of the Dasaengs, Grand awards. I still can't believe it was just an award show.😉
I've been to 3 of their concerts in Chicago. My best tickets where I could make them out easily with the naked eye, but not there facial expressions, was $400 at a resellers.
Front rows seats I've seen go for over $1,000.
I hope you get to go someday. It really is amazing. You're on a high for weeks afterwards. 💜
GREG:"Where are they standing? "
AOKI LOOKALIKE:in the middle of the universe greg!.. their rightful place!!"
Love it!!😀😁love you!!
I was gonna say/write that .. lol - How II love my Boys BTS ;))
I'm officially stannin NATALIE now!
Loved this reaction, you had me laughing throughout! And yes it’s definitely one of their best performances ever. Dionysus is the hypest song it’s impossible not to headbang while listening to it! And yes John, if they come back to LA next year you have to go! I have loved watching you guys slowly become armys, it’s been lovely.
24:34 he’s like every Jimin stans after watching that dance (tbh, im not even Jimin stan but i still burst into tears watching him dance)
" after that they took a 30 min power nap and then back to work"
Well, if it is bts then that's possible.
8:58 "The BTS Awards!" XD
I mean..... he wasn't wrong lol they won 8 awards including all 4 Daesangs
But no seriously, there are medics on standby on their shows, although I think it's standard procedure for the venue (but not sure lol). We were on the standing area for their Hong Kong Love Yourself Tour, and every now and then, medics would come with wheelchairs to escort out people who've fainted or fallen ill in the middle of the concert. But I think it has more to do with the exhaustion of the actual day (especially if they've lined up for the merch beforehand), rather than actually seeing the boys.
But. I have to say that you really have to see them live, even if you're just a bit of a fan. You won't regret it, I promise. It's just that you'll have to fight for your tickets if you want good seats 😂😂😂
those types of medics and security people are present at all large concerts.
I watched this performance live on YT, and I was so shook and speechless I couldn't calm down for a whole week.
Me too..
Cant believe that was already almost 3 years ago
Some parts were actually prerecorded so they dodn't have to quick change. But while the footage was playing, they were on stage singing
“they weren’t even supposed to perform tonight” 😂
After this this performance, a few days later they perform at MAMA award with great performance too. Please check them out too. BTS at MAMA award 2019. Thank you for your reaction.
Jimin was the top student of his contemporary dance school that his teacher paid for him to be there 🥰💜💜💜💜
You guys are giving me a mystery science theater vibe with your comments. Love it. Keep up the good work.
They each represent a different Greek god in their solo performance.
I remember at the end of me watching this I was like western award shows could never I’m sorry whatttt that was a PERFORMANCE 👏🙌 also I hope you guys get to see them live one day because it would be something y’all will never forget loved the reaction 💜
"This was a religious experience."
yass, finally, I've been waiting for this... thank u so much for this reaction! This performance really was insane, but then again it's BTS so...they are not just K-POP anymore - they are on whole another level, no one's doing it like them ;))
this was a delight. you guys are a delight im always laughing along with y’all. Thanks for the reaction!
Btw Greg, Jimin is a trained contemporary dancer and was top of his class! Glad you got to see this side of him!
16:37 "Crap, where are they standing?"
"They're standing in the middle of the universe, Greg. Their rightful place." :')
"they don't smoke weed."
Laughs while sitting here packing a bowl😂😂
V's growl in boy in luv is such a turn on..
When he said a BTS Dance Central game... I was like , YES!!! Would so get it and that thing would sell out for sure.
I loved their MMA performance so much. I always cry at this specific Mikrokosmos performance too, the song has such a special place in my heart and seeing it performed like that is just too much for my feels to handle.
YEEES I WAS WAITING FOR THIS,need popcorn tho 🍿🍿🍿
🍿🍫🥤😋
All the Grammy voters need to watch this performance.
Thank you Natalie for this!!!
I love how everyone agrees Jhope is having a blast or just happy
they meet their fans in fan meetings :D they can sit and talk with them individually, give them art or anything like that as a gift, autographs etc, there are videos from fan meetings, and they are always so wholesome and lovely
Oh annnnnd BTS announced their next tour will start April 2000. As for concert experience you scream and sing along and loose most of your voice. And concert amnesia is a real thing where you straight up forget parts/songs due to being extremely overwhelmed and excited.
boys i made a powerpoint presentation on them and their album trilogy for my music world class in school (thats basically just about the messages in music and their impact on the world, as well as the artists, its like therapy)
Did you see the light bulbs coming down? At the end is a constellation.i think is aquarius but I'm not sure...each one is a star. So nothing it's casual here in the BTS universe. Amazing.
Fun fact: the amount of sarcasm in this i lost it 😂😂😂😂 its crazy that they improvised all this 😂😂😂😂😂 dead army 💜
Thank you for making the screen large enough to actually appreciate the images.
Bts even said in vlive (after grammy's end) that their performance is cool too why they can't get their solo stage. When i heard that. I cried because they are definitely can give 2 times better performance than entire grammy's performer
They do meet their fans (face to face) actually at fan-meet events. Basically the boys sit at a table and the fans go down the row talking to them, giving them gifts, and getting autographs.
Only a certain amount of people can go tho (obviously, otherwise we get the “killed by accident” or sitting for 10 hrs problem) so getting in/getting tickets is pretty difficult 😂😂
"I want you- all of you". Feel you! I SO enjoy seeing you giddy and happy about this performance!! Saw them live in june and it was hands down the best consert I've ever seen!(40y old) ✌️🇫🇮
Hahahaha! I like ur Punch lines in between the performance! 😂 😂 😂
💜 💜 💜 💜
BTS is the most awarded artist that night in MMA, i am still surprised they get 37 mins performance .. so crazyy
Yes, it's like a mini BTS concert at an award show. One word, AMAZING performance as usual.
When he said he joined the army for BTS I laughed then I got so sad bcs I remembered Jin and yoongi having to serve there time in the Army starting this year 😟😔😔😢 but for those two years they’re gone we’ll always have them in our thoughts like I’m tearing up even thinking abt the group not being whole for so long........ great now I’m crying goddamn u Greg and your emotion envoking jokes😬✊🏾
NATALIE DORAN YOU AMAZING HUMAN YOU!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
When I first watched this I was so shocked the entire time lol. Can’t even imagine how much work went into this performance, they killed it.
Definitely the performance of the year; not the lifetime cause I’m sure they’ll outdo themselves next year 🤣
Rewatching this performance makes my heart beat again
and that's how ladies and gentlemen , they turned once again an award show into a concert..i was lleft speechless after that
Still my favorite show of all time I believe... the energy and artistry is unmatched IMO... change my mind ✌️
"We're here to investigate a murder" I'm fucking cracking up, you guys are the best 😂😂😂
This an opera level production for one performance! Operas use the same set for years.
You two crack me up. Love the sense of humor. 💜
Big Hit not only got 37 minutes to showcase BTS, but wrangled another 18 minutes for their new group, txt, also worth a watch.
Finally I’ve been waiting for this! It really is the performance of the decade! I cannot think of any other performer individual or group performance that can top it! As usual you guys are entertaining to watch. Merry Christmas to y’all.
Nice haircut Ryan. I'm giving you even more support since it's the holiday season :) I'm nice
Lol thank you very much 😘
BTS are the best performers alive! they always own the stage and commands the crowd! BTS is the best! there's nothing like BTS!
Wow...this is crazy.. this is art..don't they? 😱😱
40:03 "They are the equivalent of superheros in my mind" that's why they wrote Anpanman
I love watching y’all. It’s so much fun
I loved this reaction. But oh my gosh I couldn’t stop laughing. You guys are so funny 🥰💘😂
Honestly same I was overwhelmed I remember watching it live. I felt exhausted and I wasnt even doing anything but watch lmao
Headbanging to BTS is a real thing.
