Well, I was going to say he's gotta fight me on that, but we can share the uwus and the ooofffs xD NJ+YG supremacy (I love all of them, Jin comes 3rd but I'm a noona army so I guess I cannot see the others as eligible as my guys xD)
I'll try to explain some things.This mv has a theme of losing innocence and falling into temptations. WINGS is based on the book Demian by Hermen Hesse( the quote in the middle of the song when the music stops is from the book; it goes " he too was a tempter he too was a link to the second the evil world with which i no longer wanted to have anything to do". Sry if i didnt quote word for word. The book tells a story about the boy sinclair who grew up in a very conservative religious house hold and how he goes through a journey where his way of looking at life is tested. It is about what we percieve as good and evil , black and white... But where do we draw the line???The organ played by yoongi (Buxtehude passacaglia) is played by pistorious for sinclair in the book. the kiss is also from the book where sinclair is given a kiss from fraueva by Demian . It has reference to Greek mythology (icarus and Abraxus) and also religion. The painting jin was looking at in the beginning is called "the fall of the rebel angels" by Bruegel. It depicts the war between the fallen angels and humans. The green stuff he was drinking is absinthe .U can see the absinthe-imbibed suger lump on fire before RM drinks it. It is a hallucinogenic drink. It simbolizes creativity and liberation as well as madness and despair. Well that's how u fall into temptation ( not being able to beat the desire knowing ur supposed to). the text written above the mirror where jins face is cracking says "Man muss noch chaos in sich haben um einen tenzenden stern gebaren zu konnen" quote from nietzche meaning " you must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star". So about the face crackin in the book damien says" the bird fights its way out of the EGG the egg is the world. WHO WOULD BE BORN MUST FIRST DESTROY A WORLD. The bird flies to the god. That gods name is abraxas" which is also quoted in one of the WINGS short films( Awake). so in the book seven sermons to the dead by carl jung"Abraxus speaketh that hallowed and accursed word which is life and death at the same time. Abraxas begetteth truth and lying, good and evil, light and darkness in the same word and in z same act."( fun fact he is the person by which the book map of the soul by Dr Murray Stein's idea stem from ( jungian psychology) where their most recent era is based on... he incorporates concepts from Nietzche). There is also painting behind yoongi in the first room with the fallen chandeliers where the music starts called the lament of icarus by Draper. The painting where tae jumps from the balcony is also a painting called the fall of icarus by Bruegel. There is so much symbolism, historical, mythical, psychological, and litrary reference so its hard to explain everything but generally its a coming of age story where u are at a certain point where your traditional beliefs and social norms constrict u bt u r tempted to go beyond them. When u find yourself and ur accepting of who u truly are thus shedding your old immature (childlike view of the world) and giving birth to a new you who understands that life is nt always black and white...thus achieving self realization. Sorry for rumbling.💜 Ow and there are bits and pieces tying to the BU like where there is a different flower inside the reflection of the mirror bt most of the BU reference stand out in the Japanese version of the song. So it's telling two stories in one ... it's kinda complicated 😅. Edit: Thanks everyone. I rly appreciate it Borahae
This is why Im taking my time with the whole BU thing cuz clearly it is so deep, I could sue RM for just having a deep and intelligent mind. AAAAA (But for real, I love that BTS has a theme and that their music is inspired by something that we humans are struggling with internally. I also appreciate their commitment to all this for album after album. 💜)
The transition between the rooms was the actual set. They built a whole set with two floors so the “transition” was literally the cameraman moving up. You should check out the behind the scenes of BST.
Justine Bermudez Yeah internationally it was def wings. I remember not knowing anything about kpop and all of these american youtubers suddenly reacting to BS&T. it was iconic asf
This MV is very deep. It's based on Demian, Hermann Hesse's book. There are many symbols in the MV, references from Nietzsche, Icarus, etc., nothing is an accident. The best explanation video I found was made by Don't Worry I'm Not Afraid, the title of the video is "Blood Sweat & Tears: What Does it All Mean?" You'll love it even more.
Yes. To me that is the easiest explanation video made by an Army on Blood, Sweat and Tears MV. Here's the link: Blood Sweat & Tears: What Does it All Mean? ruclips.net/video/5tlgAUE6yjg/видео.html Would love to see your reaction to this 😊
@@indigodragon0613 yes, he laughed because it wasn’t plugged in 😅 and he hit his head on the “pipes” when getting on the seat at the beginning. Oops. Hehehe
IKR I feel like they would really love it, especially since there's 3 of them, they'd all have different interpretations and thoughts on what they think is going on in the BU!!
Welcome to the torture of Blood Sweat and Tears specifically, its been like 4 years and I feel like only selective ARMY have managed to piece EVERYTHING together.
this is one of the best reactions i've seen to wings. this song was a cultural reset, a total 180 from their previous work. honestly, i wish it would've dropped now so that it could've have gotten the laurels it deserves, though back in 2016 this had already broken so many records
Indeed. I hope folks will go back thru their discography to completely understand all that is BTS. BST is iconic and pivotal to their growth as artists.
When Tae jumps off the balcony, the painting on the wall is the Fall of Icarus. There is another fall of Icarus painting behind JK when he's hanging from the swing, and later when he is free floating in the air, he is surrounded by feathers. :)
You guys should definitely try to start reacting to the BTS universe, it’s the storyline that runs through BTS MV’s. This should be the correct order to watch💜 1. I need you original MV 2. HYYH on stage: prologue 3. Run MV 4. I need you Japanese version 5. Run Japanese version 6. Epilogue: Young forever 7. All the wings short films (Begin, Lie, Stigma, First love, Reflection, MAMA, Awake) 8. Blood sweat and tears MV 9. Blood sweat and tears Japanese version 10. Love yourself highlight reel 11. Euphoria: theme of love yourself wonder 12. Fake love teaser 1 13. Fake love MV + extended version 14. Epiphany 15. Stay gold 16. BTS universe story “map of the soul” 17. Film out Tip: you might want to learn all their names and characteristics so it’s easier to follow the story
@@barcodescanner3214 FYI, I check it regularly. Thanks. I was just being sarcastic and meaning that it's easy to continually get absorbed/amazed by them and their (BTS) journey. I'm fully aware that they've reacted to other BTS content. Maybe next time, you don't have to be quite as rude. 😊
Blood Sweat and Tears video and song were built and written based on Demian, a novel by Hermann Hesse which won a nobel prize in literature back in 1946. I read this book (because of this Mv) and I'll try my best to interpret and summarize the story here. The story follows a young boy named Sinclair who had a friend named Demian. Demian acts as Sinclair's mentor during his childhood and transition to adulthood. Sinclair as a young adult experienced series of existential crisis, believing he lives in between the world of light (the world of illusion, full of goodness) and "the dark world" (the real world which is full of lust, temptation, anger and evil world). Demian, and later on Sinclair's another mentor Pistorius, believe that in order to become a full person a human needs to embrace both of their light and dark sides. This will then lead Sinclair to find out about Abraxas, the god of light and darkness. There are sooo many imageries and jawdropping details on the MV that represent details in the book. But the point is this song is about temptation, about being a human and embracing both of your good and dark sides. The scene where Jin kissed the statue (which I believe the representation of Abraxas) means he seals the deal with the devil himself in order to fully embrace himself as a person who isn't perfect, full of flaws. The white and black doors represent the world of light and the real world. The phrase that RM read in English here was also taken from the book, page 26 (on the version that I read). It says "He too was a tempter, he too was a link to the second, the evil world with which I no longer have anything to do." "He" here refers to Demian, that Sinclair once thought as a bad influence for him, maybe it's because Sinclair tried to deny his dark sides. The book is heavily influenced by a swiss philosopher and psychiatrist Carl Jung, who was Hermann Hesse's doctor back then. Hesse learned a lot about Jung's psychoanalysis and experienced it himself so that was why Demian was heavily influenced by it. What makes it even more interesting, BTS album MOTS 7 is also based on Carl Jung theory (hence the songs Persona, Shadow, and Ego were born-- these 3 elements are important in Jung's theory Maps of the Soul). BTS are deep, my friends. They literally make a lot of armys become smarter and read on classic literature like this because of them. lol. Welcome to the fandom! (Please note once again that this is all my own interpretation after reading the book, take it with a grain of salt. And excuse grammatical mistakes here and there, English isn't my first language).
yk this music video never fails to shock and confused non-ARMY people. This is literally one of the MV/ song that you'll recommend to the gp/new ARMY bcs it *NEVER disappoints* super dope reaction guys, looking forward for more reactions~stay healthy everyone 💜
OMG I just finished reading the book that inspired this MV and your react came at the right time. This was inspired by the book Demian, addressing the dilemma between good and evil by the Protagonist of the book. All aspects of the MV refer to the story of the book, I spend hours breaking my head trying to decipher all the scenes along with the book 😂 In short: -Jin is the main character in the book, Sinclair. He is born in the "good" world but goes through dilemmas during his life to find his true identity -V is Demian, a person who crossed Sinclair's path and changed his conception of "evil", introducing him to new thoughts and philosophies. He's like a life guide for Sinclair. -Suga is Pstorious, Another figure who guides Sinclair on his journey. In the book he played organ btw... -The other members represent the world of good and evil. You can see this through the scenarios in which they appear in the mv. -At the end of the book, Sinclair kisses Demian, that's why Jin kisses the statue. Anyways, many objects in the MV represent details of the story, honestly I can't even identify them all, but I hope you can understand. Bts are geniuses for this.
Thanks for this summary, I tried reading it more than a year ago but I only got through about a quarter. I would like to try again though. It has a lot of biblical references which were hard for me to understand since I am not religious, but it was interesting for sure.
@@AiHeartYou It was difficult for me too, but I found it very interesting in the end.Some people on RUclips have already made videos explaining, maybe it will help you. But honestly I just read to understand the MV 😂 i'm not a fan of classics
@@Funtan_Sonyeondan I just threw the name of the book on Google and downloaded it from the first website I found 😂 but it was in my language, Portuguese. You probably will find in English too, search the name of the book in PDF that you will find 🙂
Guys i feel like blood sweat and tears and b.a.p's one shot are the best music videos with an ACTUAL plot line that feels like a real movie, like one that you didn't even know was going on until you get in the end and youre like wha....
Interpretation for BST ❤ BTS has stated many times that their WINGS concept is based on youth/boys falling into temptation and losing their innocence. In WINGS/Blood Sweat & Tears, we will witness their fall & one interpretation of the different ways adulthood tempts the freshly matured. The video opens with everyone walking into the museum together, but everyone is paired up: J-Hope with V, Suga with Jimin, RM with Jungkook. There are 7 members in BTS so the odd one out is Jin, who is seen walking away from everyone and towards a painting. Jin looks at the painting, titled The Fall of the Rebel Angels by Pieter Bruegel. We know that the angels of heaven fell because of direct rebellion against God by siding with Lucifer, who corrupted the angels by sinful temptations. This is a foreshadowing of the future events to come. Jin is the center focus of the music video and is the key symbol of tempted youth (which is ironic because he’s the oldest in BTS!) The next painting is seen behind Jungkook, who is dangling from a swing. It is The Lament of Icarus by Herbert James Draper. The story of Icarus is marked by its famous representation of a naïve boy whose innocent curiosity is his fatal flaw. He is given a pair of wax-held wings by his father Daedalus (an inventor/scientist) to fly, but he ignores his father’s warning to stay away from the Sun. He ultimately flies too close to the Sun and the wax holding his wings together melts, destroying his wings and leading to Icarus falling into the ocean below and drowning. RM is the one who melts the candle from which Jungkook licks the melted wax from. In the myth, although it is Icarus’ own ignorance that leads to his death, it is his father Daedalus who gives him the option of flying in the first place. So RM would represent Daedaelus and Jungkook can be interpreted as Icarus. And then, J-Hope in front of Michelangelo’s Pieta, which shows the Virgin Mary holding the dead body of Jesus Christ following his crucifixion and removal from the cross. If you’ve listened to the Wings album you know that J-Hope’s solo song is titled “Mama” and is about his mom (there are also ties here to Demian). Later on, all of the members are seen gathering at a table in what reminds me of The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci anyways, they’re seen all with a single apple on their plate. The apple is a famous symbol of sin in the biblical story of Adam and Eve where Eve eats the forbidden fruit from the Garden of Eden. Given that the apple is on their plate and they’re ready to eat, it is hinted that they’re all ready to commit to the sins of adulthood together by eating the apple together. Here we see more of the relationship between Jimin and Suga. Again, the apple is used as a symbol of sin (bonus: Jimin’s solo track “Lie” is also heavily influenced by the Adam and Eve story and Eve was connected to J-Hope's song MAMA). We have V sitting on the ledge of a balcony (where he was seen in the beginning sitting at and looking up and down) and he looks back at you, cracks a mischievous grin, and jumps willingly. And in front of him is a big painting: Landscape with the Fall of Icarus, also by Bruegel. The painting shows a spectacular scenery of the sea, but when you look closely, you can see that there are a pair of legs struggling in the sea on the bottom righthand corner. That’s supposed to be Icarus after he falls. Throughout this video Jin has looked pretty conflicted; if you recall the beginning when he’s looking at the painting, he’s got a focused look as well as confused. Like he doesn’t really know why he’s drawn to it but he is. And remember when he was at the dinner table with everyone but he gets distracted by something? This struggle is resolved with this scene of Jin and his balloon. The balloon represents his innocent youth; he’s quite literally holding on to it. He’s not sure if he wants to let go. Then, later on, during the cut with RM’s narration, we see that Jin has finally let go of the balloon. The balloon is already out of frame when he reaches up towards it, possibly regretting his choice. Suga plays the organ and it is seen that all the boys in their respective pairs exit the museum, except Jin has stayed behind and V has noticed. Jin seems to be looking at/for something, and V shows up with yet another playful look and covers his eyes. When V removes his hands and Jin opens his eyes, a mysterious statue with large, black wings has appeared and looks like it’s ready to take off. So in the end, V, who’s been kind of elusive in the story, is revealed to have scars where wings are supposed to be. I believe this statue is V. The way the scenes cut support this theory, because as the cloth covering V is revealed Jin is approaching the statue, and as he kisses the statue the figure under the cloth with the scars on his back is revealed to be V. A kiss often means the sealing of a contract; this means that Jin has officially fallen and “signed a contract” with V the fallen angel and has lost his innocence. The correlation is pretty strong here. Given all of the biblical references and the way V jumps off the ledge earlier supports the idea that V is, indeed, the fallen angel that tempts Jin. V has turned his back quite literally and has also figuratively turned his back on Jin, who did not suspect V to be a tempter.
This is a great analysis but it is so dark. I am new to BTS, and I thought they were all about love and light! Like I know they are deep but I mean this is extremely deep. So is there a video that shows them coming back to the light?
Army’s would have PhDs but still find it hard to piece this all together. Honestly, I love how BTS leaves their music open ended, for people to judge and assume.
Actualy BTS has a hole universe, they have a history goin between the mvs, and I think you guys would enjoy watching the storyline from de B.U (BTS Universy)
“Rm, I love you.” got me teared up 😭😭😭 btw I hope you’ll react on Spring Day as well as the Spring Day Explained ♥️ I just found out that you didn’t react on MicDrop. I hope you’ll react on it soon 🤞🏻
Guys don't let them know the existence of the Wings short films, because they'll be blown away and to piece everything together with this Blood Sweat and Tears MV is one hell of a ride... 👁️👁️
Blood Sweat and Tears is SATURATED with reference, and I'm kinda amazed you picked up on some 😊 First and foremost, Blood Sweat and Tears is inspired by the book "Demian" by Herman Hesse, which tells the story of Emil Sinclair's youth with themes of finding one's trueself, loss of innocence and one's becoming. The book was also heavily influenced by the thinking of a German philosopher named Nietzsche, who often talked about creation of the self. References to Demian, the themes is not only used in Blood Sweat and Tears, but across all the short mvs in the Wings album, as part of the extensive storyline BTS is narrating, as this was a transition time during which BTS moved from the pain and lost of being a youth to the internal struggles of youth against sweet but sometimes toxic temptations and struggles of becoming one's self. Just to mention a few references, the narrative that was read out by RM in the middle: "He too was a tempter. He too was a link to the second. The evil world with which I no longer wanted to have anything to do" is a quote from "Demian" The organ piece played by Suga is Passacaglia in D minor by Buxtehude, apiece which was cited by Herman Hesse in "Demian" The German writing above the wide mirror Jin stood in front of at the end, reads "Man muss noch Chaos in sich haben, um einen tanzenden Stern gebaren zu können". This is actually a Nietzsche qoute, which translates to "One must still have chaos in it, to be able to give birth to a dancing star." All the art pieces shown are significant and purposeful. Would love to see yguys reacting to a Blood Sweat and Tears Explained video one day 😊
Out of all the reaction channels I've watched so far, you guys are definitely my favourite. You have such a positive and hyped-up vibe, and you always bring such enthusiasm to the hard work people do. Thank you, and keep going!
One of my favorite things is when reactors say, “if something jumps out I’m gonna freak” or something to that effect, because it goes to show just how successfully the editors built tension during the statue scene! It makes me so happy
i would LOVE see you guys diving into the bts world and the meaning behind the mv's and cracking head's to understand the history but like you guys are so smart and catch up almost everything i would be fun
It refers to the book damion. It's about the constant battle between good and evil. And losing to the temptation. That's why there are so many dark and light pieces. The black and white doors, the statues, and such. And then final scene with the wings is losing to the temptation. Once losing to it you seethe chaos that happens. The broken /cracked statues and then him breaking under his choice.
You should do, all of their mv songs, FAKE LOVE, MUC DROP, I NEED YOU, RUN, DNA, and all, I mean you will see the versatility of this group as an artist,musician, idol, everything
I love how humble you guys are. You actually interpreted the video pretty well for ppl who know nothing of the BU (Bangtan Universe) aka BTS's ongoing storyline in their music videos. You guys are super smart, keep up the great videos :)
That's why I love the BTS Universe! Nothing is literal, obvious, predictable, boring, and they don't do something for the sake of doing something. They truly are artists.
Absolutely awesome 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 nobody does it like BTS..the transition, choreography they don't just give you a MV they give you an experience and it's always different and something new!!! I just Absolutely love them and love watching reaction videos..and everyone's appreciation for them 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
When I saw Blood Sweat & Tears; I was by myself in a room, seeing Jin walking towards the Dark Angel, I'm screaming. STOP! He's the devil!!! Don't Do it!!! Then witnessing Jin falling into temptation. It's such an experience. There is a video called Blood Sweat & Tears Explained you should watch, if you want to really be blown away but you will be proud of yourself too for catching many details.
You know the video got them good when they had to pause, collect their thoughts, think about their existence, the “what just happen?” Inner monologue , and rewinding the moment. Being speechless while pausing is a bonus 😊
I love how you guys get straight into it. And that you guys actually pay attention to the M/V and explain what certain things might symbolize etc. You guys are the best Example: the black and white doors Josh pointed out
Loved your reaction!!! Really glad you guys enjoyed the mv, I know it’s very difficult to unfold/break down. If I could make a recommendation I would like you guys to react to some of the performances from Road to Kingdom!
I would seriously love if you guys could start reacting to bu storyline because anyone who enjoys bs&t would be perfect for the bu storyline and you guys would really enjoy that and us too 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
People say it was "I need you girl" that was the switch as was their first win. But I think Blood sweat Tears is the one that really took them into that new elevated level. They had that prime era before went full western late 2019 to the 2020s.
Fun Fact... Yoongi hit his head on that metal thing while going under it to get to the organ for that scene. :D He said he had a decent bump on his head. Also... Yoongi was supposed to be the one to cover Jin's eyes, but he kept laughing, so Jin asked if someone else could do it... hence V.
From 2013 to 2015, BTS' 3 albums (ORUL, Skul Luv Affair & Dark & Wild) are about teenage lives. The succeeding albums The Most Beautiful Moment in Life Parts 1 & 2, Young Forever, Wings and You Never Walk Alone are about their struggles, chaos, temptation, pains, being lost and questioning themselves. Then the succeeding albums Love Yourself (Her, Tear and Answer) are about them finding and learning to love their selves. The final album Map of the Soul: 7 completes the journey where it tells their story of finally finding and accepting their true and complete selves. All albums are heavily based on Carl Jung's theory of "individuation" and their personal emotions and situations.
I love your reaction. "RM I love you..." 😂. This song it's part storyline and BU (BTS Universe). All song's writing story of live boys (not real ofcours). You're make my day. 💜 from Poland.
The releasing of the balloon scene is actually the moment that Jin is on the verge of losing is innocence that the balloon kind of symoblises. (since other members at that point are already giving into the temptations and he is the last one left). But there is soooo much to unpack in this video, it's amazing :)
PLEASE react to bts hardships by Xceleste the most recent video. its very informative and will give you much needed context to some bts songs especially the rap line.
She also does explanation videos for the BU. DKDKTV also explains a lot of the lyrics and how they relate back to hot topics in South Korean society. So my suggestion would be to check out their explanation videos after you finish each one to help piece it all together.
Hi guys...i just love your reactions and most of the time u r 80% right...but this one is so deep...there is an explanation video if u want to know..and you must watch the making of the MV..its mind blowing..tq so much looking forward to more bts reactions..stay safe .
Yeah, many of their MVs, as other people say, are like films with deep story lines with significance from other authors or written by themselves that carry through different of their songs and MVs.
the whole concept is giving into temptation and you nailed it! Ah, I love your reactions so much just because it's a pleasure to watch smart people figure stuff out!
this is apart of the bts universe storyline, and if you’d like to dive into it, it starts with the ‘i need u’ mv (original version). but just a heads up, it’s extremely complicated and the story is still continuing today. the storyline goes through their music videos (not all music videos though), short films, mobile games, and webtoons. but you can honestly just watch the music videos and short films, and watch an explanation video on the storyline after if that’s what you’d prefer!
"I feel like it's one of these videos you have to watch 5-10 times and you finally getting the piece together" well, true I watched it more than 10 times and after 5 years I noticed the different colors of the doors thanks to you so, I am still missing the pieces 🙂
Blood Sweat and Tears is one of the most iconic MV of BTS... To give you a background, all BTS albums are interconnected and follow a storyline. They are also connected to BTS Universe series. So much symbolisms were to used to present the state of the team's lives during the time the albums were made. Most of the songs were written by the members themselves so the messages of the songs are genuine

I'll try to explain some things.This mv has a theme of losing innocence and falling into temptations. WINGS is based on the book Demian by Hermen Hesse( the quote in the middle of the song when the music stops is from the book; it goes " he too was a tempter he too was a link to the second the evil world with which i no longer wanted to have anything to do". Sry if i didnt quote word for word. The book tells a story about the boy sinclair who grew up in a very conservative religious house hold and how he goes through a journey where his way of looking at life is tested. It is about what we percieve as good and evil , black and white... But where do we draw the line???The organ played by yoongi (Buxtehude passacaglia) is played by pistorious for sinclair in the book. the kiss is also from the book where sinclair is given a kiss from fraueva by Demian . It has reference to Greek mythology (icarus and Abraxus) and also religion. The painting jin was looking at in the beginning is called "the fall of the rebel angels" by Bruegel. It depicts the war between the fallen angels and humans. The green stuff he was drinking is absinthe .U can see the absinthe-imbibed suger lump on fire before RM drinks it. It is a hallucinogenic drink. It simbolizes creativity and liberation as well as madness and despair. Well that's how u fall into temptation ( not being able to beat the desire knowing ur supposed to). the text written above the mirror where jins face is cracking says "Man muss noch chaos in sich haben um einen tenzenden stern gebaren zu konnen" quote from nietzche meaning " you must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star". So about the face crackin in the book damien says" the bird fights its way out of the EGG the egg is the world. WHO WOULD BE BORN MUST FIRST DESTROY A WORLD. The bird flies to the god. That gods name is abraxas" which is also quoted in one of the WINGS short films( Awake). so in the book seven sermons to the dead by carl jung"Abraxus speaketh that hallowed and accursed word which is life and death at the same time. Abraxas begetteth truth and lying, good and evil, light and darkness in the same word and in z same act."( fun fact he is the person by which the book map of the soul by Dr Murray Stein's idea stem from ( jungian psychology) where their most recent era is based on... he incorporates concepts from Nietzche). There is also painting behind yoongi in the first room with the fallen chandeliers where the music starts called the lament of icarus by Draper. The painting where tae jumps from the balcony is also a painting called the fall of icarus by Bruegel. There is so much symbolism, historical, mythical, psychological, and litrary reference so its hard to explain everything but generally its a coming of age story where u are at a certain point where your traditional beliefs and social norms constrict u bt u r tempted to go beyond them. When u find yourself and ur accepting of who u truly are thus shedding your old immature (childlike view of the world) and giving birth to a new you who understands that life is nt always black and white...thus achieving self realization. Sorry for rumbling.💜 Ow and there are bits and pieces tying to the BU like where there is a different flower inside the reflection of the mirror bt most of the BU reference stand out in the Japanese version of the song. So it's telling two stories in one ... it's kinda complicated 😅.
Edit: Thanks everyone. I rly appreciate it Borahae
Wow, I appreciate your explanation so much
Thanks for putting in so much time and effort to add these details. I hope readers will be enriched by your explanations!
Wow! I love you @Moonchild for this.... Such A long Essay....😘
Thank god i don't have to comment this.. You explained it well army 😊💜
This is why Im taking my time with the whole BU thing cuz clearly it is so deep, I could sue RM for just having a deep and intelligent mind. AAAAA (But for real, I love that BTS has a theme and that their music is inspired by something that we humans are struggling with internally. I also appreciate their commitment to all this for album after album. 💜)
The transition between the rooms was the actual set. They built a whole set with two floors so the “transition” was literally the cameraman moving up. You should check out the behind the scenes of BST.
YES! Also please watch the explained video of the MV!
Damn! Going now to watch the BTScenes. :)
yeah I know that I have also seen it's really dope man....
Your guys energy is always so kind. Some of the most humble reactors to BTS ive seen. TY!
Ikr!!
absolutely!! they’re always incredibly respectful and kind and i love watching them
They’re soooo good
Meet Dj Jino
So right
Wings was literally the "beginning" of everything for BTS. It was a cultural reset.
Agree 💜
I think "I need U" is like where everyone appreciated their genre and music style. But internationally, yes, I agree it's WINGS era
agreeee💜
Yeahhhhh i was there when we first on the trending because the teaser blow up.. gosh.. i still remember how crazy i was
Justine Bermudez Yeah internationally it was def wings. I remember not knowing anything about kpop and all of these american youtubers suddenly reacting to BS&T. it was iconic asf
This MV is very deep. It's based on Demian, Hermann Hesse's book. There are many symbols in the MV, references from Nietzsche, Icarus, etc., nothing is an accident. The best explanation video I found was made by Don't Worry I'm Not Afraid, the title of the video is "Blood Sweat & Tears: What Does it All Mean?" You'll love it even more.
Yes, I really like her explain video!!
And add the connection of Hermann Hesse being a friend (and patient) of Carl Jung IRL... mindblown pt 2.
Yes. To me that is the easiest explanation video made by an Army on Blood, Sweat and Tears MV. Here's the link: Blood Sweat & Tears: What Does it All Mean?

@@claraalmira6280 Same, lol!
Josh: RM I love you.
That's the most relatable reaction, ever. 🤣
Fact that Yoongi played the song for real.
That's a pipe organ, not a piano. He also said that it wasn't connected so it made no sound lol.
@@indigodragon0613 yes, he laughed because it wasn’t plugged in 😅 and he hit his head on the “pipes” when getting on the seat at the beginning. Oops. Hehehe
@@CP_LUVS He's very endearing 😭
and bumped his head on the organ pipes
He stood piano, he's an amazing player. X
I swear you guys would enjoy getting into the Bangtan Universe
THIS!!!!
So true,I hope they dive into it soon
IKR I feel like they would really love it, especially since there's 3 of them, they'd all have different interpretations and thoughts on what they think is going on in the BU!!
Omg I found a salvi army
@@spoopyjhope 👀 We're everywhere 💜😁
Welcome to the torture of Blood Sweat and Tears specifically, its been like 4 years and I feel like only selective ARMY have managed to piece EVERYTHING together.
Lol, you mean there's someone who actually has all the pieces? At times I feel like even Bang PD doesn't ;)
@@Noir1311 honestly I dont know, but just in case, I didn't wanna leave out the masterminds that have somehow solved it.
Now that would just be cruel
My biggest fear is that the end of the storyline will be connected to the disbandonment of BTS.
@@imajinallthepurple I've...never thought of that. Now I'm thinking about that and its TERRIFYING.
@@imajinallthepurple Well bangtan universe is completely fictional, I don't think we should associate any if it to their real lives.
this is one of the best reactions i've seen to wings. this song was a cultural reset, a total 180 from their previous work. honestly, i wish it would've dropped now so that it could've have gotten the laurels it deserves, though back in 2016 this had already broken so many records
Factsss I can't imagine if this was released during 2020 or this year I just cannntttttt
I get what you mean
Indeed. I hope folks will go back thru their discography to completely understand all that is BTS. BST is iconic and pivotal to their growth as artists.
when namjoon appeae on the screen "RM, I LOVE YOU" 😭 that was so cuteeee
When Tae jumps off the balcony, the painting on the wall is the Fall of Icarus. There is another fall of Icarus painting behind JK when he's hanging from the swing, and later when he is free floating in the air, he is surrounded by feathers. :)
Not an army, but i know that this concept of them gained more hearts of people 😍💙
Thank you
@@cinamoreall nothing to thank for, stating facts here 🔥😍
Love from lndian ARMY💜
The way the man in the middle just randomly said,
"RM... i love you."
Yes, I know it's just cuteee
You guys should definitely try to start reacting to the BTS universe, it’s the storyline that runs through BTS MV’s.
This should be the correct order to watch💜
1. I need you original MV
2. HYYH on stage: prologue
3. Run MV
4. I need you Japanese version
5. Run Japanese version
6. Epilogue: Young forever
7. All the wings short films (Begin, Lie, Stigma, First love, Reflection, MAMA, Awake)
8. Blood sweat and tears MV
9. Blood sweat and tears Japanese version
10. Love yourself highlight reel
11. Euphoria: theme of love yourself wonder
12. Fake love teaser 1
13. Fake love MV + extended version
14. Epiphany
15. Stay gold
16. BTS universe story “map of the soul”
17. Film out
Tip: you might want to learn all their names and characteristics so it’s easier to follow the story
this!!! and yes learning their names is important for keeping up with the plot lines
The best moment: "RM I love you" jsjajjajjajaja I love him💜✨
OMG!!! YES!!!! 😄
Welcome to the "Black Hole" that is BTS. Once you get sucked in, there's no going out... It's wonderful though. 💜
Fym welcome they've already been reacting to bts maybe check the channel before commenting 🤦🏻
@@barcodescanner3214 FYI, I check it regularly. Thanks. I was just being sarcastic and meaning that it's easy to continually get absorbed/amazed by them and their (BTS) journey. I'm fully aware that they've reacted to other BTS content. Maybe next time, you don't have to be quite as rude. 😊
@@betsyklutts952 truh💜
Blood Sweat and Tears video and song were built and written based on Demian, a novel by Hermann Hesse which won a nobel prize in literature back in 1946. I read this book (because of this Mv) and I'll try my best to interpret and summarize the story here. The story follows a young boy named Sinclair who had a friend named Demian. Demian acts as Sinclair's mentor during his childhood and transition to adulthood. Sinclair as a young adult experienced series of existential crisis, believing he lives in between the world of light (the world of illusion, full of goodness) and "the dark world" (the real world which is full of lust, temptation, anger and evil world). Demian, and later on Sinclair's another mentor Pistorius, believe that in order to become a full person a human needs to embrace both of their light and dark sides. This will then lead Sinclair to find out about Abraxas, the god of light and darkness. There are sooo many imageries and jawdropping details on the MV that represent details in the book. But the point is this song is about temptation, about being a human and embracing both of your good and dark sides. The scene where Jin kissed the statue (which I believe the representation of Abraxas) means he seals the deal with the devil himself in order to fully embrace himself as a person who isn't perfect, full of flaws. The white and black doors represent the world of light and the real world. The phrase that RM read in English here was also taken from the book, page 26 (on the version that I read). It says "He too was a tempter, he too was a link to the second, the evil world with which I no longer have anything to do." "He" here refers to Demian, that Sinclair once thought as a bad influence for him, maybe it's because Sinclair tried to deny his dark sides. The book is heavily influenced by a swiss philosopher and psychiatrist Carl Jung, who was Hermann Hesse's doctor back then. Hesse learned a lot about Jung's psychoanalysis and experienced it himself so that was why Demian was heavily influenced by it. What makes it even more interesting, BTS album MOTS 7 is also based on Carl Jung theory (hence the songs Persona, Shadow, and Ego were born-- these 3 elements are important in Jung's theory Maps of the Soul). BTS are deep, my friends. They literally make a lot of armys become smarter and read on classic literature like this because of them. lol. Welcome to the fandom!
(Please note once again that this is all my own interpretation after reading the book, take it with a grain of salt. And excuse grammatical mistakes here and there, English isn't my first language).
your explanation was perfect! you gave the general infos, manage to connect it with MOTS era and the wording was so clear 💜
@@cutenghi Thank you!
Your explanation is wonderful 😍 Thank you
Brilliantly explained 👏💜
if you guys check out the dance practice of this song, you are gonna be blown away!🤯it’s so amazing!
@D RSRIPAAH a masterpiece in choreo😭
yk this music video never fails to shock and confused non-ARMY people. This is literally one of the MV/ song that you'll recommend to the gp/new ARMY bcs it *NEVER disappoints*
super dope reaction guys, looking forward for more reactions~stay healthy everyone 💜
OMG I just finished reading the book that inspired this MV and your react came at the right time. This was inspired by the book Demian, addressing the dilemma between good and evil by the Protagonist of the book. All aspects of the MV refer to the story of the book, I spend hours breaking my head trying to decipher all the scenes along with the book 😂
In short:
-Jin is the main character in the book, Sinclair. He is born in the "good" world but goes through dilemmas during his life to find his true identity
-V is Demian, a person who crossed Sinclair's path and changed his conception of "evil", introducing him to new thoughts and philosophies. He's like a life guide for Sinclair.
-Suga is Pstorious, Another figure who guides Sinclair on his journey. In the book he played organ btw...
-The other members represent the world of good and evil. You can see this through the scenarios in which they appear in the mv.
-At the end of the book, Sinclair kisses Demian, that's why Jin kisses the statue.
Anyways, many objects in the MV represent details of the story, honestly I can't even identify them all, but I hope you can understand. Bts are geniuses for this.
Thanks for this summary, I tried reading it more than a year ago but I only got through about a quarter. I would like to try again though. It has a lot of biblical references which were hard for me to understand since I am not religious, but it was interesting for sure.
where did you get the book? i also want to read it
@@AiHeartYou It was difficult for me too, but I found it very interesting in the end.Some people on RUclips have already made videos explaining, maybe it will help you. But honestly I just read to understand the MV 😂 i'm not a fan of classics
@@Funtan_Sonyeondan I just threw the name of the book on Google and downloaded it from the first website I found 😂 but it was in my language, Portuguese. You probably will find in English too, search the name of the book in PDF that you will find 🙂
@@GLima-sx3ez oohh.. thank you 😊
"running into something bad" the theme of temptation I think!!!
Guys i feel like blood sweat and tears and b.a.p's one shot are the best music videos with an ACTUAL plot line that feels like a real movie, like one that you didn't even know was going on until you get in the end and youre like wha....
This amazes me everytime they got the key words/message... they are so observant thats so cool (mind blown)
Yes, I am highly impressed with how much they picked up on and understood. These guys are really smart!
@@oliveb. yes indeed... i really hope that i can see every BTS MV like how in their perspective
@@JDTL02 me too because every comback I'm usually totally confused 😂🤣
Interpretation for BST ❤
BTS has stated many times that their WINGS concept is based on youth/boys falling into temptation and losing their innocence. In WINGS/Blood Sweat & Tears, we will witness their fall & one interpretation of the different ways adulthood tempts the freshly matured. The video opens with everyone walking into the museum together, but everyone is paired up: J-Hope with V, Suga with Jimin, RM with Jungkook. There are 7 members in BTS so the odd one out is Jin, who is seen walking away from everyone and towards a painting. Jin looks at the painting, titled The Fall of the Rebel Angels by Pieter Bruegel. We know that the angels of heaven fell because of direct rebellion against God by siding with Lucifer, who corrupted the angels by sinful temptations. This is a foreshadowing of the future events to come. Jin is the center focus of the music video and is the key symbol of tempted youth (which is ironic because he’s the oldest in BTS!) The next painting is seen behind Jungkook, who is dangling from a swing. It is The Lament of Icarus by Herbert James Draper. The story of Icarus is marked by its famous representation of a naïve boy whose innocent curiosity is his fatal flaw. He is given a pair of wax-held wings by his father Daedalus (an inventor/scientist) to fly, but he ignores his father’s warning to stay away from the Sun. He ultimately flies too close to the Sun and the wax holding his wings together melts, destroying his wings and leading to Icarus falling into the ocean below and drowning. RM is the one who melts the candle from which Jungkook licks the melted wax from. In the myth, although it is Icarus’ own ignorance that leads to his death, it is his father Daedalus who gives him the option of flying in the first place. So RM would represent Daedaelus and Jungkook can be interpreted as Icarus. And then, J-Hope in front of Michelangelo’s Pieta, which shows the Virgin Mary holding the dead body of Jesus Christ following his crucifixion and removal from the cross. If you’ve listened to the Wings album you know that J-Hope’s solo song is titled “Mama” and is about his mom (there are also ties here to Demian).
Later on, all of the members are seen gathering at a table in what reminds me of The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci anyways, they’re seen all with a single apple on their plate. The apple is a famous symbol of sin in the biblical story of Adam and Eve where Eve eats the forbidden fruit from the Garden of Eden. Given that the apple is on their plate and they’re ready to eat, it is hinted that they’re all ready to commit to the sins of adulthood together by eating the apple together. Here we see more of the relationship between Jimin and Suga. Again, the apple is used as a symbol of sin (bonus: Jimin’s solo track “Lie” is also heavily influenced by the Adam and Eve story and Eve was connected to J-Hope's song MAMA). We have V sitting on the ledge of a balcony (where he was seen in the beginning sitting at and looking up and down) and he looks back at you, cracks a mischievous grin, and jumps willingly. And in front of him is a big painting: Landscape with the Fall of Icarus, also by Bruegel. The painting shows a spectacular scenery of the sea, but when you look closely, you can see that there are a pair of legs struggling in the sea on the bottom righthand corner. That’s supposed to be Icarus after he falls. Throughout this video Jin has looked pretty conflicted; if you recall the beginning when he’s looking at the painting, he’s got a focused look as well as confused. Like he doesn’t really know why he’s drawn to it but he is. And remember when he was at the dinner table with everyone but he gets distracted by something? This struggle is resolved with this scene of Jin and his balloon. The balloon represents his innocent youth; he’s quite literally holding on to it. He’s not sure if he wants to let go. Then, later on, during the cut with RM’s narration, we see that Jin has finally let go of the balloon. The balloon is already out of frame when he reaches up towards it, possibly regretting his choice. Suga plays the organ and it is seen that all the boys in their respective pairs exit the museum, except Jin has stayed behind and V has noticed. Jin seems to be looking at/for something, and V shows up with yet another playful look and covers his eyes. When V removes his hands and Jin opens his eyes, a mysterious statue with large, black wings has appeared and looks like it’s ready to take off. So in the end, V, who’s been kind of elusive in the story, is revealed to have scars where wings are supposed to be. I believe this statue is V. The way the scenes cut support this theory, because as the cloth covering V is revealed Jin is approaching the statue, and as he kisses the statue the figure under the cloth with the scars on his back is revealed to be V. A kiss often means the sealing of a contract; this means that Jin has officially fallen and “signed a contract” with V the fallen angel and has lost his innocence. The correlation is pretty strong here. Given all of the biblical references and the way V jumps off the ledge earlier supports the idea that V is, indeed, the fallen angel that tempts Jin. V has turned his back quite literally and has also figuratively turned his back on Jin, who did not suspect V to be a tempter.
This is really a good analysis! Thank you’ 💜
This is a great analysis but it is so dark. I am new to BTS, and I thought they were all about love and light! Like I know they are deep but I mean this is extremely deep. So is there a video that shows them coming back to the light?
Army’s would have PhDs but still find it hard to piece this all together. Honestly, I love how BTS leaves their music open ended, for people to judge and assume.
Actualy BTS has a hole universe, they have a history goin between the mvs, and I think you guys would enjoy watching the storyline from de B.U (BTS Universy)
Whole* and its called Bangtan Universe
@@Emy-rb4ln I'm sorry, I'm using the translator
“Rm, I love you.” got me teared up 😭😭😭
btw I hope you’ll react on Spring Day as well as the Spring Day Explained ♥️
I just found out that you didn’t react on MicDrop. I hope you’ll react on it soon 🤞🏻
Unfortunately you will never see that iconic Big Hit intro on the new BTS MVs 😭💔
I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE!!!
Guys don't let them know the existence of the Wings short films, because they'll be blown away and to piece everything together with this Blood Sweat and Tears MV is one hell of a ride... 👁️👁️
DONT TELL THEM!
YES! One of their best mvs for sure
“RM, I love you” this got me cracking 😂😂😂😂
Blood Sweat and Tears is SATURATED with reference, and I'm kinda amazed you picked up on some 😊
First and foremost, Blood Sweat and Tears is inspired by the book "Demian" by Herman Hesse, which tells the story of Emil Sinclair's youth with themes of finding one's trueself, loss of innocence and one's becoming. The book was also heavily influenced by the thinking of a German philosopher named Nietzsche, who often talked about creation of the self.
References to Demian, the themes is not only used in Blood Sweat and Tears, but across all the short mvs in the Wings album, as part of the extensive storyline BTS is narrating, as this was a transition time during which BTS moved from the pain and lost of being a youth to the internal struggles of youth against sweet but sometimes toxic temptations and struggles of becoming one's self.
Just to mention a few references, the narrative that was read out by RM in the middle: "He too was a tempter. He too was a link to the second. The evil world with which I no longer wanted to have anything to do" is a quote from "Demian"
The organ piece played by Suga is Passacaglia in D minor by Buxtehude, apiece which was cited by Herman Hesse in "Demian"
The German writing above the wide mirror Jin stood in front of at the end, reads "Man muss noch Chaos in sich haben, um einen tanzenden Stern gebaren zu können". This is actually a Nietzsche qoute, which translates to "One must still have chaos in it, to be able to give birth to a dancing star."
All the art pieces shown are significant and purposeful.
Would love to see yguys reacting to a Blood Sweat and Tears Explained video one day 😊
Out of all the reaction channels I've watched so far, you guys are definitely my favourite. You have such a positive and hyped-up vibe, and you always bring such enthusiasm to the hard work people do. Thank you, and keep going!
"RM. I love you"
So we're there already huh? I get you 100% hahahaha
You guys have got to watch the MV of their Black Swan. If you love the cinematics of this you will love Black Swan it’s my favorite of their MVs
One of my favorite things is when reactors say, “if something jumps out I’m gonna freak” or something to that effect, because it goes to show just how successfully the editors built tension during the statue scene! It makes me so happy
i would LOVE see you guys diving into the bts world and the meaning behind the mv's and cracking head's to understand the history but like you guys are so smart and catch up almost everything i would be fun
Aaaaaaand this is the song/video that pulled me right down the BTS rabbit hole!💜
"to be honest with you, i don't think we're smart enough" LOOOOL SAME
yess, this one and "Fake Love"are masterpieces
"I'm bad with jump scares." Soft teddy bear 🐻 🥺✨
This song is ART! Thank you for reacting to this one
It refers to the book damion. It's about the constant battle between good and evil. And losing to the temptation. That's why there are so many dark and light pieces. The black and white doors, the statues, and such. And then final scene with the wings is losing to the temptation. Once losing to it you seethe chaos that happens. The broken /cracked statues and then him breaking under his choice.
"I'm just trying to put it together"
You and the rest of the fanbase. This mv is still a mystery
You should do, all of their mv songs,
FAKE LOVE, MUC DROP, I NEED YOU, RUN, DNA, and all, I mean you will see the versatility of this group as an artist,musician, idol, everything
I love how humble you guys are. You actually interpreted the video pretty well for ppl who know nothing of the BU (Bangtan Universe) aka BTS's ongoing storyline in their music videos. You guys are super smart, keep up the great videos :)
Yes, they are super, super smart!
That's why I love the BTS Universe! Nothing is literal, obvious, predictable, boring, and they don't do something for the sake of doing something. They truly are artists.
Can't wait for you guys to react to their live performances like you'll be more blown away.
BTS - DDAENG
BTS - TEAR
Read the book Demian, it was used as a reference for the stories in their MVs.
Absolutely awesome 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 nobody does it like BTS..the transition, choreography they don't just give you a MV they give you an experience and it's always different and something new!!! I just Absolutely love them and love watching reaction videos..and everyone's appreciation for them 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
When I saw Blood Sweat & Tears; I was by myself in a room, seeing Jin walking towards the Dark Angel, I'm screaming. STOP! He's the devil!!! Don't Do it!!! Then witnessing Jin falling into temptation. It's such an experience. There is a video called Blood Sweat & Tears Explained you should watch, if you want to really be blown away but you will be proud of yourself too for catching many details.
You know the video got them good when they had to pause, collect their thoughts, think about their existence, the “what just happen?” Inner monologue , and rewinding the moment. Being speechless while pausing is a bonus 😊
I love how you guys get straight into it. And that you guys actually pay attention to the M/V and explain what certain things might symbolize etc. You guys are the best
Example: the black and white doors Josh pointed out
Literally one of their most iconic masterpieces 😌
Loved your reaction!!! Really glad you guys enjoyed the mv, I know it’s very difficult to unfold/break down. If I could make a recommendation I would like you guys to react to some of the performances from Road to Kingdom!
I would seriously love if you guys could start reacting to bu storyline because anyone who enjoys bs&t would be perfect for the bu storyline and you guys would really enjoy that and us too 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Your BTS content is my fav 💕
Awww our glorious song, the song which really blew BTS to higher proportions. To this day this is my favourite MV of BTS. It's glorious.
I've waiting for this omg
STILL HAVING GOOSEBUMPS WATCHING IT...
There's a Japanese version of this MV, you must react to it. So much symbolism going on.
The Japanese version is more darker🌚
People say it was "I need you girl" that was the switch as was their first win. But I think Blood sweat Tears is the one that really took them into that new elevated level. They had that prime era before went full western late 2019 to the 2020s.
I feel like they would love to follow try to the BU just to try and interpret what's going on lol
Blood sweat and tears is such a masterpiece. It's wayyyy ahead of It's time. Mind blowing literally
Es completamente normal ver a RM y decir en voz alta "I love you" 😌
Fun Fact... Yoongi hit his head on that metal thing while going under it to get to the organ for that scene. :D He said he had a decent bump on his head. Also... Yoongi was supposed to be the one to cover Jin's eyes, but he kept laughing, so Jin asked if someone else could do it... hence V.
0:40 represents all the armys watching bts videos // 0:40 representa a todas las armys viendo videos de bts
From 2013 to 2015, BTS' 3 albums (ORUL, Skul Luv Affair & Dark & Wild) are about teenage lives. The succeeding albums The Most Beautiful Moment in Life Parts 1 & 2, Young Forever, Wings and You Never Walk Alone are about their struggles, chaos, temptation, pains, being lost and questioning themselves. Then the succeeding albums Love Yourself (Her, Tear and Answer) are about them finding and learning to love their selves. The final album Map of the Soul: 7 completes the journey where it tells their story of finally finding and accepting their true and complete selves. All albums are heavily based on Carl Jung's theory of "individuation" and their personal emotions and situations.
I love your reaction. "RM I love you..." 😂. This song it's part storyline and BU (BTS Universe). All song's writing story of live boys (not real ofcours). You're make my day. 💜 from Poland.
The releasing of the balloon scene is actually the moment that Jin is on the verge of losing is innocence that the balloon kind of symoblises. (since other members at that point are already giving into the temptations and he is the last one left). But there is soooo much to unpack in this video, it's amazing :)
Don't worry Im not afraid has an excellent explained video for this MV. I highly recommend it.
You guys have the best commentary! 🤩💜
PLEASE react to bts hardships by Xceleste the most recent video. its very informative and will give you much needed context to some bts songs especially the rap line.
Up
She also does explanation videos for the BU. DKDKTV also explains a lot of the lyrics and how they relate back to hot topics in South Korean society. So my suggestion would be to check out their explanation videos after you finish each one to help piece it all together.
This is my absolute favorite BTS song! WATCH IT 50 MORE TIMES!!
Hi! Please react to The Last by AGUST D, it was mentioned as one song that deserved the same hype as Dynamite !
You should watch explanation videos because they help a lot!
Every picture, choice of music, frame, statue, etc. had a purpose.
I've waiting for this 😍
HELLO guys, I 💜 U
This is truly a masterpiece i mean another masterpiece by bts they are just legendary
This is the smartest reaction channel like ever
My mind is totally blown over how much they picked up from watching it only once.
The whole idea is TEMPTATION. The entire video you see the dichotomy good vs evil and at the end, you get the feeling they fell into temptation
I'm screaminggggg
Yesss I agree...this is one of Amasterpiece of BTS's MV
Hi guys...i just love your reactions and most of the time u r 80% right...but this one is so deep...there is an explanation video if u want to know..and you must watch the making of the MV..its mind blowing..tq so much looking forward to more bts reactions..stay safe .
Yeah, many of their MVs, as other people say, are like films with deep story lines with significance from other authors or written by themselves that carry through different of their songs and MVs.
I like their reactions ❤
"RM, I love you" we really are all.😂💜💜
Please could you react to Aimer MV - Wonderland?
the whole concept is giving into temptation and you nailed it! Ah, I love your reactions so much just because it's a pleasure to watch smart people figure stuff out!
Miss y'all reaction
this is apart of the bts universe storyline, and if you’d like to dive into it, it starts with the ‘i need u’ mv (original version). but just a heads up, it’s extremely complicated and the story is still continuing today. the storyline goes through their music videos (not all music videos though), short films, mobile games, and webtoons. but you can honestly just watch the music videos and short films, and watch an explanation video on the storyline after if that’s what you’d prefer!
You should react to the explanation video by Celeste
I love how they react to a scene when they actually taken aback rather than pausing after every two seconds. Love the simplicity < 3
"I feel like it's one of these videos you have to watch 5-10 times and you finally getting the piece together" well, true I watched it more than 10 times and after 5 years I noticed the different colors of the doors thanks to you so, I am still missing the pieces 🙂
they portrayed the concept of temptation in this m/v very well
React to bts flim out
Yeah. Blood sweat & tears is sophisticated art.
Blood Sweat and Tears is one of the most iconic MV of BTS... To give you a background, all BTS albums are interconnected and follow a storyline. They are also connected to BTS Universe series. So much symbolisms were to used to present the state of the team's lives during the time the albums were made. Most of the songs were written by the members themselves so the messages of the songs are genuine
its been years since bs&t has been released and I still get the chills every time I watch the mv, mind you I've been watching it since it was released
