You require the subtitles (captions) as the lyric's are extremely important. The lyric's talk about them and their struggles to and their resilience to keep going even when they don't even know what country they've arrived in, no matter they wake up to find themselves worn out in a place they don't even understand the language. Suga and RM often using every spare minute between dance practice siting on a plane or in the car writing lyric's composing music etc how it never stops but they have each other to give them power to keep growing, performing. etc etc.
I believe for the video it’s dancers from an LA group the Lab. The young lady in middle at the beginning is the choreographer. The marching band sounds and from the live performance is the UCLA marching band. There’s a really good documentary about the process of making this song with the marching band and choir singers avail on RUclips
Yes indeed. I think they also used UCLA choir members, IF I remember correctly. I think that for performances like this they would have used dancers for the band members, not least because of scheduling issues. For live performances, I think that if you see band players, they are probably playing live. Because that's how BTS works.
The Blue Devils are in the MV but the recording is the UCLA Marching Band and Jazz Band together. Y'all can watch the recording process on the 'ON Commentary Film' on RUclips.
The drums, horns, etc were the UCLA marching and jazz bands. The part you asked about was the dance crew, The Lab. The choreographer was 18 when she created the choreo.
Actually they ARE musicians. Several of them play multiple instruments from piano, drums, guitar and even sax. They write and produce the majority of their songs, from the very beginning.
BTS used Carl Jung's analytical psychology to write the lyrics and make the official MV. It talks about accepting our shadows, which are those repressed parts of us. We can only evolve when we truly accept these repressed parts of ourselves. That's why the lyrics say "leave me with my everything" Only when we accept everything that is part of us can we find peace. By the way, the drums announce. the battle that will be faced... just as it was in the Middle Ages that soldiers were warned to prepare for battle with drums. I'm Patrícia, 45 years old, psychologist and army. 🇧🇷💜
please turn on the close captions whenever you watch BTS' content especially with their songs. Their lyrics are very deep and meaningful, they are some of the best songwriters and lyricist in the Kpop world especially RM and SUGA. This song in particular is one of those songs with a very inspiring and uplifting message.
There is 2 types of subtitles. The hard coded one should be good most of the time specially on the official videos. The ones we say to stay away from is google(youtube) AI automatic translated ones Goodluck in future videos 🙂💜
Both RM and SUGA were underground rappers from their teen years. They can both improv and battle. In fact RM was feared as a freestyle rapper by 13 y/o. You can watch their individual straight rap tracks.
71 year old BTS Army here. This song is filmed at the Sepulveda Dam near L.A. The performers are the multi World Champion Blue Devils Drum and Bugle Corps along with some members of the UCLA Marching Band. Sienna Lalau front and center of the opening scene is the choreographer at the age of 19 along with some members of her dance group, "The Lab". There were also background vocals by a gospel choir. Amazing track for sure!!! Thanks for your reaction! 💜
You should check out the 'making of' video for ON, which features members of UCLA marching band etc. and many American artists reflecting on working with BTS and BH which was a completely new experience for them The level of production here is normal for BTS. They do occasionally use CGI, but avoid it wherever they can - eg will use it for explosions to minimise danger to performers, who are often very close to that action! This came out in 2020 which predates their military service by nearly three years - but RM is now in his military band unit, playing the tenor sax and apparently loving it. (I suspect it's a huge relief from the heavy responsibilities he's had since he was 16) When this was made, BTS were loaded, but until (probably) 2018, they were in kpop terms, skint. In particular their early MVs were made on a shoestring, and they had to use managers' cars, and even managers as extras. They've always been very inventive (because they had to be) and their camera staff are integral to the performances, so, yes, they have their own choreography too, designed to integrate with the dance moves and music rhythm. 'Save Me' was filmed on a rainy beach in one take. That camera team (one camera man, one guide) were heroes. There's a making of video of that too - they were all bloody frozen! In fact for many (most?) BTS MVs there is actually a suite of relevant material - dance practice, making of, MV and live performances - worth looking at them together if you are properly interested in what BTS do and have time....
Subtitles? There are some great lyrics. tks for the reaction! Speaking of musicians, RM, one of the rappers, plays saxophone in the military at the moment. Basically the song says they've had highs and lows and bring it on, cause they can handle it.
As musicians you should watch the ON COMMENTARY FILM. This shows the recording of the marching band and gospel choir elements of the song in LA. BTS is not in it but it is so cool to see producers and artists talking so highly of BTS and many are ARMY! Not many people react to this but it is great and only 20 mins.💜
The woman they zoomed-in on in the beginning is Sienna Lalau. She choreographed this (at 18yo) and has done other choreo for BTS (and other groups) as well as being a back-up dancer (with her dance crew "The Lab") for BTS in concerts and live performances as well as for jhope for his Lollapalooza stage.
Please TURN ON THE CLOSED CAPTIONS when you watch a BTS video. In my opinion, if you are not getting the meaning of the song, then you are not getting the heart of the song. Which is important for understanding. As you should know, as lyricists and songwriters yourself. I've indluded the behind the scenes and a mini documenatry type video on how this project came to be. BTS have deep lyrics, so you are missing the meanings, which fall in line with the concept of their ERA, and albums. This particular album is from their Map of the Soul (MOTS) ERA, which starts with the MOTS: Persona album, and then ended on the MOTS: 7 album. It's very introspective and is inspired by Carl Jung's psychological concepts of Shadow, EGO, and Persona, which is from the concept or theory of Individuation, which was a psychological concept created by Carl Jung (Swiss psychiatrist, psychotherapist and psychologist). In this ERA BTS look inside themselves and reflect on their journey as artists and humans. The first album being about their Persona, the songs were mostly for and about their fans. and the second album was more of Personal journey inside themselves. Their lyricism is on another level. RM wrote a lot of the songs in this one, but every member contributed. Maybe if you check out their behind the scenes and commentary film, you will get a better idea of what kind of artists they are. They are not your typical "boy band" They also have an actual music video for this song as well, that tells a story. With it's own behind the scenes.

This was the UCLA Marching band, and this was a part of their BTS connect project. This project was put out in 2020, before the pandemic hit, and before they ever enlisted in the military. Actually, They are all enlisted right now, except for JIN who was just discharged a day before their 11th year anniversary. The only member out of the seven that is actually playing an instrument in the military marching band is RM. He took up the tenor Saxophone, and is killing it. He played for JIN on his discharge day, which all seven of them were there for. They took a day off of their post to see him discharged and congratulate him. They really are brothers of the heart*
The super group of 7 song writers, 7 composers and 7 Producers each to a greater or lesser extent. The 3 Rappers are the most prolific Song writers as one would expect. Suga is the most prolific Producer of the group.
Filmed in LA at the sepulveda dam in 105 degrees On the track the blue devils and UCLA marching bands Dancers are “the lab” led by and choreographed by sienna lalau who is Centre in the opening (at 19!) 💜🇨🇦
Commenting this to maybe clear some confusion. The subtitles on BTSs MVs are always correct (maybe in some old old old songs there aren’t gonna be any) but subtitles in fanmade compilations or live performances are mostly not correct or not there, only if you search for it, like “BTS MAMA live 2018 with english subtitles”. So when you guys react to music videos be sure to put on subtitles and maybe pay attention to the lyrics and meaning if you are up for it, definitely one of the core experiences with BTS, they are truly artists. The live videos, there are many many channels that give you correct subtitles, it’s easy to look it up :) So good luck on the habit hole guys ❤
They also used drones for some of the shots... They filmed it at the Sepulveda dam in LA... The girl in the centre of the drumline when they began is Sienna Lau.. she was 19 when they filmed this...she's done works with them since... The band is real.. the 'dancers' are part of the LAB dance crew from LA... There's a behind the scenes - you would probably enjoy it !
Thank you for your nice intro for new viewers of you guys. That's me. New to you. You were so nice I subscribed even before I listened to your reaction. I read through your comments. I looked through your videos to find your history of BTS viewing. And you're brand new. Here is a back story to this song. I saw them debut this song on The Jimmy Fallon show on February 24, 20. I just happened to be watching that night. BTS had been in New York several days filming at different sites with Jimmy Fallon to be shown on The Tonight Show. They filmed on the subway and at a deli and here in Grand Central Station in New York City. BTS was premiering this song from their album brand new album "7". They were embarking on their biggest worldwide concert tour. They had worked so hard on this very difficult choreography. I had never heard of them before. But being from a musical theatre background, I knew what it took to pull off a perfect performance of this Magnificent Masterpiece. There is no official NBC video of this as it was copyrighted. But luckily, a fan taped it on her TV. And the tape of it is viable and watchable. Know this. To get a perfect perforation they taped and performed the song "all out" 3 or 4 times. So when some fell to the floor exhausted, it was because they had 0 energy kept in their bodies. I lived them so much I got on RUclips that very night and found out all I could. Every day or night since then I have consumed BTS content. Because there are 11 years of content to watch!!! A few days after this performance they were called into a meeting and told their concert was cancelled. They were shocked and devastated!! Look at tat date. Covid shut the world down. They tried to reschedule it again, not knowing the pandemic would keep going and going. So....they Never got to perform this amazing song and choreography for a Live audience. Until.......well that's another story that happened years later in their history. But you are too new to hear that story. I challenge you. You have barely touched the surface of this Number 1 group in the world. I challenge you to do a Deep Dive. A great way to start is an introduction to the members. Find and watch the documentary "A Guide to BTS Members: The Bangtan 7". It's kind of long. But we will watch it with you to hear your reaction to their amazing story. Enjoy your BTS journey. It was nice to meet you today. FYI. I had many typos or wrong words. I corrected them many times, but for some reason, RUclips never would save my edits. So I didn't say I lived them. I said i loved them.
Guys, first of all, I like your reactions, but also you've watched a live performance without subtitles, but watched it with auto-generated subs.. but the MV which have actual accurate subs you don't put on the CC again.. why?
On their Bangtan TV channels they have a short documentary of the making of this song. The UCLA band did the track recording, but the MV features the Blue Devils Drum Corp. To answer your question at the end, BTS were not affiliated with the military during the time this song was made, but since enlisting RM has taken up the saxophone as part of the military band.
There is a behind the making of this video and a separate 20-30 minute video showing the studio work done with the UCLA band members and local choir members. Recommend both as they are very cool to watch. They also did this in the Grand Central Station for a Jimmy Fallon episode and also did this live in concert minus the full band - The Lab dancers were the other dancers and the young woman at the center at the opening is the choreographer. Glad you liked it! Hope you check out more. Later! EDIT: Just watched the Top Shelf Villain official MV - love the visuals, and the song LOL.
always have on captions if you dont already. unlike most k pop groups BTS dont really talk nonsense. their lyrics mean something and since its their thoughts and feelings in those songs the lyrics are a must
I'm sure you'll love watching the behind the scenes working with the choir and the marching band 😊 There are other videos with the backup dancers. The choreographer is the first gitl wjo appears in the MV, Sienna Lalau.
This was filmed in LA at a location you probably seen in many movies and TV shows called the LA River basin at the Sepulveda dam. The music was recorded by the UCLA marching band and concert band and the UCLA Blue Devils drum corps. The dancers are from a well-known dance group called The Lab based in LA. They have also done work for quite a few other artists.
all Bts mvs have eng subs, the write there own lyrics, the take up depression, menthal health, women power, haters social injustice, the 3 rappers have there own mixtapes
One of the members plays the drums and has done so live with a band in fact all the members are musicians and we have seen and heard them play live on stage and on Live stream with them even while they are bit tipsy which is always funny.
It's the Blue Devils Drum and Bugle Corps. There is a wonderful behind the scenes documentary. There is no affiliation, BTS is serving in the military right now. This song came out 2020. Suga had this song in his pocket for a while. He had really wanted to work with a choir. Jungkook who sang the high note break down plays the drums. And the cross over from dancing to drumming is one that works. We hear beats and are used to moving to them. 😘💜🫰🏻🫶🏻
This MV is preferred by ARMY, but this song also has a second MV which is official one, and there is a Hollywood production and a lot of special effects :) you can watch it for comparison. 💜💜
Hi Guys. I like your reactions but may I make a suggestion. A part of what makes BTS amazing is also their lyrics. Please put on subtitles if available and does not say autogenerated. If the subtitles say they’re autogenerated then don’t use those because the translations are not correct.
❣BTS “On” Kinetic Manifesto Film MV. There’s a reason it has over 600 million views. Especially the choreography this is the one of the most spectacularly amazing, as well as the vocals & rap from the individual members, while seeing the amazingly phenomenal, absolutely breathtakingly outstanding performance choreographed dance as well as all the backup dancers with marching band, while reading the lyric translation, you’ll realize that this song is ultimately in reality about BTS never giving up against all odds, but even more encouraging army to do the same saying that they will be there to support all the way throughout! Unbelievably this was written and released at end of 2019 before the pandemic fully happened. they even were as i mentioned in US for awhile aside from preparing to perform at the Grammys so did their dance practices in LA as well, with the actual dancers from The Lab. Sienna Lalou who was also involved with ❣️Jimin’s equally spectacular choreography in his must see song “Set Me Free Pt.2”, along with The Lab dancers actually performed in this “On” Kinetic Manifesto MV filmed in LA at I believe a reservoir damn, other army can be more specific: but it fits well, emphasizing & showing off the performance that much more! This song meant so much to so many army during the pandemic, giving them so much support! The BTS On MV takes the song into a way more deep jungian phycological interpretation which is indeed is helpful even necessary for the MV, but it just didn’t hit as deep, since it’s more introspective , as the amazingly choreographed performance piece, that not only talked about BTS inner struggles but seemingly emphasized more so their support for army being with us to endure whatever comes, also was filmed so amazingly well seeing the dance and the choreography at all angles, as well as while watching them dance while reading the lyrics just had way way more impact! You’ll see what I mean! 👍🙏🙌😍🔥🔥
UCLA marching band played music, Blue devils dance crew were in the video. there is making music "Comentary film", also behind the scenes for shooting this kinetic manifesto film, also behind the scenes for the official music video
If you guys like lyrics then turn on the lyrics. They are usually meaningful. RM talks about how he used to write poetry and his lyrics are really clever. Some of it can go over your head if you don't understand the Korean references, in which case you can check out the explanation videos. There are some great people who have deciphered their lyrics and can tell you all the word play that just blows your mind. They are all song writers and contribute to the songs melodies and lyrics. On is about confronting your shadow, the dark side of yourself - bring the pain on. It's scary but must be done to truly accept and love yourself. This is a part of a whole concept based on carl jung's psychological analysis of one's personality. The Lab were the dancers and the girl who is shown first is the cheorographer. She was like 19 or something at the time. UCLA was the marching band I think. Edit to say thanks for your reaction!
Just so you know, it's mostly useless to read comments under their MVs because they're usually random comments for the algorithm. ARMY does that all the time because we're afraid that our views won't be counted and stuff like that. You can watch Boracity's "Why the Industry is terrified of BTS" video essay if you're curious about why exactly. It's not too long, with a voice-over and is well-researched! I'm glad that you're pointing out their great synchronicity and rythm, although they are musicians. All of them produce, compose and write but they also play instruments. For example, Jin plays the guitar, SUGA plays the piano and the guitar, RM now learn the saxophone in the military, V used to play the saxophone and the trumpet and JK plays the guitar and the drums. Not sure about j-hope and Jimin though. And besides that they also like to learn other instruments but don't have the same skill with them Also, the group of dancers is called The Lab. They are extremely talented. Consider that anyone working with BTS is always worth checking out! For the Rap Line thing...only 3 of them are rappers (RM, SUGA and j-hope). Although JK is a sub-rapper since he used to rap in their early days and records all their guides, including the rappers' parts. J-hope also contributes to vocals in some songs. RM and SUGA are mainly rappers, although they did work a lot on their vocals which shows in their latest works (D-Day for SUGA, Indigo and RPWP for RM). The others - Jin, Jimin and V - are vocalists and don't rap in general RM and SUGA both started rapping, songwriting, and producing at 13 (don't know if it's Korean or Global age). They were both in the underground hiphop scene and RM was quite renowned for his age. SUGA was producing "professionally" at the age of 16 (he was basically working for nothing - getting completely ripped off). J-hope only started rapping after he became a trainee (he was a really good street dancer and won competitions) but showed a lot of talent and honed his skills along the other trainees. He learned to write and produce quickly and has been on par with RM and SUGA for a while now - even though he has less experience. They were extremely lucky with their vocalists as well. They scouted Jin on the street for his looks only (he didn't sing or dance at all) and discovered a gem just waiting to be polished - a silver voice. Jimin was a top contemporary dancer student and the label wanted him to rap but SUGA convinced them to let him sing and they discovered his unique and wonderful voice that bring a lot to the variety of voices of the group and make BTS stand out. V was just a regular teenager that had a lot of talent in many fields but didn't even intended to audition - he just went to support his friend - but BigHit gave him a chance and discovered his beautiful soulful baritone. And JK participated in a singing competition and was scouted by 7 different companies (6 of them being much bigger than BigHit) but JK chose the small almost bankrupt BigHit only because he saw RM perform and fell for him, haha. That's how they discovered a jack of all trades with perfect pitch About the military, they only started their military service in 2022-2023 - the last 4 joined in December 2023. It's 18 months but SUGA's is longer (21 months) since he's a social worker. He had an accident when he was a trainee that ruined his shoulder. He got surgery in 2020 but was judged inept to do a regular service. Jin was released on June 12th and j-hope will be released in October. The rest will be released in June 2025 So, to answer your question, they have no tie to the military. It's just mandatory for Korean men. This was shot in 2020 - 2 years before Jin joined. They aren't allowed to make new content while being in the military so they worked extremely hard to make content before enlisting so they could still release content for ARMY
The main vocal8st, Jungkook, rapped in the BTS song No More Dream. Also, Jin, known as the silver voice also rapped in No More Dream. V rapped Ddang once during FESTA. Jimin rappes w Suga in Tony Montana.
This video was shot in the US, using different camera's and drones. The dancers are from the Lab, led by Sienna LaLau. Who worked with BTS more, and also accompanied them at US tours and concerts. There is another official MV for this song. Which is very filmic, movielike. Worth a view.
These guys have been really good at turning on subtitles in the past. A lot of these reaction videos are filmed in 1 sitting and then released throughout the week. The J-Hope react video and this 1 were filmed on the same day and it looks like they just forgot to turn them on that day. I'm sure they'll be more on top of that in the future so I think a couple of y'all need to chill. 💜
This is recorded in L.A the girl that starts the Mv is the choreographer. bts write and produced there songs, 2 members are trained dancers and 2 is from underground rap
I'm so glad I chose to check RUclips 1 more time before going to bed lol it's 3 am I just got done binging a bunch of your video reactions keep up the great work 🙌💜 now let me watch this real quick 😅
For live performances, with subtitles, of a couple of rapline songs, I'll try to add a link to my replies. The songs are 'Ugh' and 'Outro: Tear'. It's just the rappers on these two songs
For 'Ugh' ruclips.net/video/HPZdb5bptCQ/видео.htmlsi=uZ7fnPU5fVPUcFRR For 'Outro:Tear' ruclips.net/video/UDuaJGYe8EQ/видео.htmlsi=KsdSvTpYNhGvFiQ5 The lyrics are really important so these have subtitles. They each write their own lyrics and help with composition and production on the majority of their songs (about 400 songs)
I recommend & know you’ll enjoy watching, when you get a chance to also see from BTS: 🔥❣Jimin “Set Me Free Pt.2” MV, (turn cc on for the ever so important, meaningful eng subs), from his first solo FACE album, so you can see some of the similarities, from BTS On Kinetic Manifesto MV. Since Jimin himself made a point to go specifically to LA, in the US, to use the same choir. Also had Sienna, the same choreographer, be involved with the choreo for his song along with another & even his own input! Also even used “going insane to stay the same” similar lyrics to this song. You’ll be blown away with the spectacularly amazing dancing of so many all in sync as well as Jimin’s own dancing, his vocals, the lyrics he wrote, & the epic music he wrote. Jimin was hands on in the production as well. even involved with the set design for the MV, which was his idea.👍🙏❤🔥🐥😍🔥🔥
So there like 3 band/crew that are part of it, the music did UCLA marching band with choir and jazz band and of course BTS. The video is by dance crew The Lab, the girl at the begining did the choreography for it, and the marching band that is part of this video is the Blue Devils. ;)
The documentary is awesome. BTS utilizes The Lab-dancers The Blue Devils marching band and I think UCLA’s gospel choir. FYI, anyone that works with BTS is given full credits. BTS also pays more than the standard pay too.
Bts is the biggest group in the world, the have 6 nr 1 songs at Billboard 100 6 n1 Albums at Billboard 200 and 12 billboards awards. Also 2 members have also nr 1 songs at Billboard 100 the have been nominated 5 times at Grammy and perform at grammy i like Grammy 2022 when the got a standing ovation. the have perform at evry stadium all over the world, even 2 days at Wembley. And in 2021 the had 4 days stadium concert in L.A and 3 months later in 2022 the had 4 stadium concert in Las vegas all sold out
I agree with the guy in black. RAP is a really intense art form. They have to be quick, witty, and very cerebral. It is a pity that the art form is somewhat under appreciated by most mainstream audience and general population as it is heavily squeezed under identity politics.
our RL also write a lot of vocal line songs as well. as well as produce and compose many of them. and also since our rappers write their own verses the write pretty much for every song
All the best with your gig's hope they are all complete sell out's and you all have a 'safe and great time'. 💜 BTS have a huge Discography over 300 tracks they are now they had their 11th anniversary Fiesta only 3days ago. They are not stuck in just one genre either that's because they believe in Artist Development and being 7 they have similar and different music tastes as well. They are not your 'normal' Kpop (Idol) group but more trend setter within the Idol (kpop) Industry.
RM and Suga (aka Agust D) are just that Real Rappers who write their own lyric's (Suga produces his own beats not just for himself but other artist and produces songs for other artists) and they both came up battle rapping in the Underground Hop Hip Scene in South Korea. J Hope (Real Rapper) learnt to write and Rap once when joined BTS he was also part of that Underground Hip Hop scene as the youngest member of the Street Dance Crew 'Neuron'.
wdym "real rapper"? J hope writes and produces too. Yes, he may have not been in the game as long as Namjoon and Yoongi but that doesn't take away from the fact, he is indeed a "real rapper"
@@-ryonbyu I never said J Hope wasn't a 'real Rapper. I just commented on his journey to becoming a Rapper eg how he came to be a Rapper and it started for him in Hip Hop Culture eg the dance part of Hip Hop Culture. I even said he learnt to write and Rap once he joined BTS eg that's where he became a real Rapper not a typical 'kpop' Rappers. Not saying their aren't other Real Rappers in Kpop there are a few of them.
@@eileencritchley4630 I get what you mean now, but the wording is what had me read it wrong because it seemed like you were only calling Namjoon and Yoongi “real rappers”. But that was my bad.
@@-ryonbyu No worries I think I could have worded it better as well. I should have put Real in front of Rapper for J Hope as well in fact I think that might work well I'll go back and edit it. Thank you for posting as it's made me think more as to what I was trying to say with my first post. So big thank you💜💜💜💜💜💜
You are ALWAYS being told in your videos to TURN ON THE CLOSE CAPTIONS but you never listen. Feels like you're really not interested in understanding the meaning of their songs. I don't know. I find it weird that you watch it like this. Coz the normal and usual way of watching is you TURN ON the CC if it's not in english, be it MV, Movie, TV Series, etc. Otherwise, how will you be able to understand it right? You SHOULD turn on the CC next time. Coz if you still don't, what's the point of reacting to a video that you don't understand. Unless, you're doin this just for the views.
What is a musician? How do you define that term? BTS members play instruments, compose, are songwriters, produce, sing and rap as well as dance. Their musicality is undeniable. Every one of them has written, composed and produced their music. Multiple members play multiple instruments. They are not a slicky produced product. They came together under a broke label as their only group, and they carried that label to the top. Their label is now the biggest label in S Korea, and BTS are carrying their whole industry on their backs. They are not famous because they are cute or because they are a marketed boy band package. They are famous because of the depth of their music and lyricism and character. Their subject matter is real and raw and courageously vulnerable. Their lyrics are being studied in colleges around the world. Some of their lyrics were put in the S Korean Hangeul Museum as a beautiful example Korean poetry. In case you are not aware, they are not *just* the biggest Korean group, nor the biggest "boy band" - they are the biggest musical group/band in the world and have been for years. They fill the biggest stadiums in the world like the biggest touring bands, while also topping the charts and competing with the likes of Beyonce, Drake and Taylor - all with no Western radio play and almost none of their music in English. They didn't win that kind of following just on catchy tunes and good looks.
I recommend watching magic shop by Bts. There is an amazing live performance on the channel enjoy bts more with english subs. Thanks for your reaction 💜
Hi guys, do you turn on the subtitles but we just can’t see them? It would be helpful to point that out in the beginning of the video. If they’re not turned on, then please do. BTS’ lyrics are a big component of their music. EDIT: However if the captions say ‘auto generated’ they should be left/turned off. Most BTS & members MVs thankfully do come with subtitles.
Hi! I really want to watch and enjoy your reactions fully, but each time I see you still aren't using subtitles, it's a disappointment. I've seen many say this in your comments and it's come to the point that I think I'm going to start clicking off when that's the case. The lyrics are a HUGE component to BTS' musicality and it's bordering on insulting not to even have them on, even if you don't catch every line.
thank you for saying this!! I've tried to watch their other BTS reactions and keep HOPING they will have the sense to actually read the lyrics and every time I am disappointed. Atp it feels like willful ignorance, especially considering how many comments they continually get asking for the cc's. 🙄
@@sherry5808 Agreed. I gave them the benefit of the doubt because they were new to this and seemed enthusiastic, but the grace period is expiring. It's a shame because ARMY will naturally check out music and hype people with genuine appreciation for the Tannies. But if we smell purely clout-chasing and self promotion? Not happening :\
There is a making of for this song. They used the UCLA Marching and Jazz band in the song plus a gospel chorus (you hear them in the vocal rises in the song). In the music video are the Blue Devils drum core but the dancers are from and LA company called The Lab. This is the documentary about the marching band and choral parts behind the song ruclips.net/video/npfs6afvIhk/видео.html
Hi! I like your reactions. You should watch a bts guide. There's the Taylors guide which isn't totally up to date but well made and digestible. It will put many things in perspective! They all write, produce, compose etc. The main songmakers are RM, J-hope and Suga. They also almost all play instruments. Some play guitar, some piano, some saxophone, some trumpet etc.
J-HOPE is the Lead dancer of the group and he is the master of performance, you should react to his Lollapalooza performance he write his own songs he is amazing 🤩
The "sweat has left the chat" joke: There is a line in this song Jungkook sings "My blood and tears" That ARMY was making a joke because BTS also has a very famous song called "Blood, Sweat & Tears" from 2016.
You might be surprised how many American College marching bands use BTS music/dance for their half time shows!!
It's awesome💜
You require the subtitles (captions) as the lyric's are extremely important. The lyric's talk about them and their struggles to and their resilience to keep going even when they don't even know what country they've arrived in, no matter they wake up to find themselves worn out in a place they don't even understand the language. Suga and RM often using every spare minute between dance practice siting on a plane or in the car writing lyric's composing music etc how it never stops but they have each other to give them power to keep growing, performing. etc etc.
I believe for the video it’s dancers from an LA group the Lab. The young lady in middle at the beginning is the choreographer. The marching band sounds and from the live performance is the UCLA marching band. There’s a really good documentary about the process of making this song with the marching band and choir singers avail on RUclips
Yes indeed. I think they also used UCLA choir members, IF I remember correctly.
I think that for performances like this they would have used dancers for the band members, not least because of scheduling issues. For live performances, I think that if you see band players, they are probably playing live. Because that's how BTS works.
UCLA drum line recorded for this song; not the choir. The choir is an LA based choir group but not affiliated with UCLA.
The Blue Devils are in the MV but the recording is the UCLA Marching Band and Jazz Band together. Y'all can watch the recording process on the 'ON Commentary Film' on RUclips.
@@GeorgiaOK94 ty!
@@AngelaSealana and to say this. 😁
The drums, horns, etc were the UCLA marching and jazz bands. The part you asked about was the dance crew, The Lab. The choreographer was 18 when she created the choreo.
Choreographer is the girl at 3:12 of your video the first face you really gets to see in this "ON" video as a shout out to her.
BTS is all about the lyrics! The lyrics are everything!!!💜💜💜💜💜
Actually they ARE musicians. Several of them play multiple instruments from piano, drums, guitar and even sax. They write and produce the majority of their songs, from the very beginning.
Now we have 2 sax players in BTS V and RM who's playing Saxophone in the Military band as part of his military service.
Yes they,r real mUsicians ❤
BTS used Carl Jung's analytical psychology to write the lyrics and make the official MV. It talks about accepting our shadows, which are those repressed parts of us. We can only evolve when we truly accept these repressed parts of ourselves. That's why the lyrics say "leave me with my everything" Only when we accept everything that is part of us can we find peace.
By the way, the drums announce. the battle that will be faced... just as it was in the Middle Ages that soldiers were warned to prepare for battle with drums.

please turn on the close captions whenever you watch BTS' content especially with their songs. Their lyrics are very deep and meaningful, they are some of the best songwriters and lyricist in the Kpop world especially RM and SUGA. This song in particular is one of those songs with a very inspiring and uplifting message.
There is 2 types of subtitles. The hard coded one should be good most of the time specially on the official videos. The ones we say to stay away from is google(youtube) AI automatic translated ones
Goodluck in future videos 🙂💜
It's really surprising that 2 musicians (and one a lyricist) would not be interested or bothered to delve into the lyrics. Very disappointed.
they don't read comments, it's very frustrating
@@sidneys.6350 another reason not to watch ,,,,
Make sure you use subtitles, not closed captioning (auto generated).
Both RM and SUGA were underground rappers from their teen years. They can both improv and battle. In fact RM was feared as a freestyle rapper by 13 y/o. You can watch their individual straight rap tracks.
71 year old BTS Army here. This song is filmed at the Sepulveda Dam near L.A. The performers are the multi World Champion Blue Devils Drum and Bugle Corps along with some members of the UCLA Marching Band. Sienna Lalau front and center of the opening scene is the choreographer at the age of 19 along with some members of her dance group, "The Lab". There were also background vocals by a gospel choir.
Amazing track for sure!!!
Thanks for your reaction! 💜
You should check out the 'making of' video for ON, which features members of UCLA marching band etc. and many American artists reflecting on working with BTS and BH which was a completely new experience for them
The level of production here is normal for BTS. They do occasionally use CGI, but avoid it wherever they can - eg will use it for explosions to minimise danger to performers, who are often very close to that action! This came out in 2020 which predates their military service by nearly three years - but RM is now in his military band unit, playing the tenor sax and apparently loving it. (I suspect it's a huge relief from the heavy responsibilities he's had since he was 16)
When this was made, BTS were loaded, but until (probably) 2018, they were in kpop terms, skint. In particular their early MVs were made on a shoestring, and they had to use managers' cars, and even managers as extras. They've always been very inventive (because they had to be) and their camera staff are integral to the performances, so, yes, they have their own choreography too, designed to integrate with the dance moves and music rhythm. 'Save Me' was filmed on a rainy beach in one take. That camera team (one camera man, one guide) were heroes. There's a making of video of that too - they were all bloody frozen!
In fact for many (most?) BTS MVs there is actually a suite of relevant material - dance practice, making of, MV and live performances - worth looking at them together if you are properly interested in what BTS do and have time....
BTS ON: dialogue/commentary film
Subtitles? There are some great lyrics. tks for the reaction! Speaking of musicians, RM, one of the rappers, plays saxophone in the military at the moment. Basically the song says they've had highs and lows and bring it on, cause they can handle it.
As musicians you should watch the ON COMMENTARY FILM. This shows the recording of the marching band and gospel choir elements of the song in LA. BTS is not in it but it is so cool to see producers and artists talking so highly of BTS and many are ARMY!
Not many people react to this but it is great and only 20 mins.💜
The woman they zoomed-in on in the beginning is Sienna Lalau. She choreographed this (at 18yo) and has done other choreo for BTS (and other groups) as well as being a back-up dancer (with her dance crew "The Lab") for BTS in concerts and live performances as well as for jhope for his Lollapalooza stage.
Please TURN ON THE CLOSED CAPTIONS when you watch a BTS video. In my opinion, if you are not getting the meaning of the song, then you are not getting the heart of the song. Which is important for understanding. As you should know, as lyricists and songwriters yourself. I've indluded the behind the scenes and a mini documenatry type video on how this project came to be. BTS have deep lyrics, so you are missing the meanings, which fall in line with the concept of their ERA, and albums. This particular album is from their Map of the Soul (MOTS) ERA, which starts with the MOTS: Persona album, and then ended on the MOTS: 7 album. It's very introspective and is inspired by Carl Jung's psychological concepts of Shadow, EGO, and Persona, which is from the concept or theory of Individuation, which was a psychological concept created by Carl Jung (Swiss psychiatrist, psychotherapist and psychologist).
In this ERA BTS look inside themselves and reflect on their journey as artists and humans. The first album being about their Persona, the songs were mostly for and about their fans. and the second album was more of Personal journey inside themselves. Their lyricism is on another level. RM wrote a lot of the songs in this one, but every member contributed. Maybe if you check out their behind the scenes and commentary film, you will get a better idea of what kind of artists they are. They are not your typical "boy band" They also have an actual music video for this song as well, that tells a story. With it's own behind the scenes.

*EDIT: in responding to your comment at the end. This was the UCLA Marching band, and this was a part of their BTS connect project. This project was put out in 2020, before the pandemic hit, and before they ever enlisted in the military. Actually, They are all enlisted right now, except for JIN who was just discharged a day before their 11th year anniversary. The only member out of the seven that is actually playing an instrument in the military marching band is RM. He took up the tenor Saxophone, and is killing it. He played for JIN on his discharge day, which all seven of them were there for. They took a day off of their post to see him discharged and congratulate him. They really are brothers of the heart*
The super group of 7 song writers, 7 composers and 7 Producers each to a greater or lesser extent. The 3 Rappers are the most prolific Song writers as one would expect. Suga is the most prolific Producer of the group.
Filmed in LA at the sepulveda dam in 105 degrees
On the track the blue devils and UCLA marching bands
Dancers are “the lab” led by and choreographed by sienna lalau who is Centre in the opening (at 19!)
💜🇨🇦
Commenting this to maybe clear some confusion. The subtitles on BTSs MVs are always correct (maybe in some old old old songs there aren’t gonna be any) but subtitles in fanmade compilations or live performances are mostly not correct or not there, only if you search for it, like “BTS MAMA live 2018 with english subtitles”. So when you guys react to music videos be sure to put on subtitles and maybe pay attention to the lyrics and meaning if you are up for it, definitely one of the core experiences with BTS, they are truly artists. The live videos, there are many many channels that give you correct subtitles, it’s easy to look it up :) So good luck on the habit hole guys ❤
They also used drones for some of the shots... They filmed it at the Sepulveda dam in LA... The girl in the centre of the drumline when they began is Sienna Lau.. she was 19 when they filmed this...she's done works with them since... The band is real.. the 'dancers' are part of the LAB dance crew from LA... There's a behind the scenes - you would probably enjoy it !
They can ALL sing, RAP, dance, write, compose, direct & produce!!!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜👑
Thank you for your nice intro for new viewers of you guys. That's me. New to you. You were so nice I subscribed even before I listened to your reaction. I read through your comments. I looked through your videos to find your history of BTS viewing. And you're brand new. Here is a back story to this song. I saw them debut this song on The Jimmy Fallon show on February 24, 20. I just happened to be watching that night. BTS had been in New York several days filming at different sites with Jimmy Fallon to be shown on The Tonight Show. They filmed on the subway and at a deli and here in Grand Central Station in New York City. BTS was premiering this song from their album brand new album "7". They were embarking on their biggest worldwide concert tour. They had worked so hard on this very difficult choreography. I had never heard of them before. But being from a musical theatre background, I knew what it took to pull off a perfect performance of this Magnificent Masterpiece. There is no official NBC video of this as it was copyrighted. But luckily, a fan taped it on her TV. And the tape of it is viable and watchable. Know this. To get a perfect perforation they taped and performed the song "all out" 3 or 4 times. So when some fell to the floor exhausted, it was because they had 0 energy kept in their bodies. I lived them so much I got on RUclips that very night and found out all I could. Every day or night since then I have consumed BTS content. Because there are 11 years of content to watch!!! A few days after this performance they were called into a meeting and told their concert was cancelled. They were shocked and devastated!! Look at tat date. Covid shut the world down. They tried to reschedule it again, not knowing the pandemic would keep going and going. So....they Never got to perform this amazing song and choreography for a Live audience. Until.......well that's another story that happened years later in their history. But you are too new to hear that story. I challenge you. You have barely touched the surface of this Number 1 group in the world. I challenge you to do a Deep Dive. A great way to start is an introduction to the members. Find and watch the documentary "A Guide to BTS Members: The Bangtan 7". It's kind of long. But we will watch it with you to hear your reaction to their amazing story. Enjoy your BTS journey. It was nice to meet you today. FYI. I had many typos or wrong words. I corrected them many times, but for some reason, RUclips never would save my edits. So I didn't say I lived them. I said i loved them.
THIS VERSION AND THE ONE THEY PERFORMED AT THE NEW YORK TRAIN STATION ON THE JIMMY FALLON IS THE BEST
Guys, first of all, I like your reactions, but also you've watched a live performance without subtitles, but watched it with auto-generated subs.. but the MV which have actual accurate subs you don't put on the CC again.. why?
On their Bangtan TV channels they have a short documentary of the making of this song. The UCLA band did the track recording, but the MV features the Blue Devils Drum Corp.
To answer your question at the end, BTS were not affiliated with the military during the time this song was made, but since enlisting RM has taken up the saxophone as part of the military band.
There is a behind the making of this video and a separate 20-30 minute video showing the studio work done with the UCLA band members and local choir members. Recommend both as they are very cool to watch. They also did this in the Grand Central Station for a Jimmy Fallon episode and also did this live in concert minus the full band - The Lab dancers were the other dancers and the young woman at the center at the opening is the choreographer. Glad you liked it! Hope you check out more. Later!
EDIT: Just watched the Top Shelf Villain official MV - love the visuals, and the song LOL.
always have on captions if you dont already. unlike most k pop groups BTS dont really talk nonsense. their lyrics mean something and since its their thoughts and feelings in those songs the lyrics are a must
I'm sure you'll love watching the behind the scenes working with the choir and the marching band 😊
There are other videos with the backup dancers. The choreographer is the first gitl wjo appears in the MV, Sienna Lalau.
This was filmed in LA at a location you probably seen in many movies and TV shows called the LA River basin at the Sepulveda dam. The music was recorded by the UCLA marching band and concert band and the UCLA Blue Devils drum corps. The dancers are from a well-known dance group called The Lab based in LA. They have also done work for quite a few other artists.
all Bts mvs have eng subs, the write there own lyrics, the take up depression, menthal health, women power, haters social injustice, the 3 rappers have there own mixtapes
One of the members plays the drums and has done so live with a band in fact all the members are musicians and we have seen and heard them play live on stage and on Live stream with them even while they are bit tipsy which is always funny.
And play instruments outside the military base gates. 😂
@@purpleskiesforever Indeed our Leader himself Super Brain Mr Kim Namjoon.
It's the Blue Devils Drum and Bugle Corps. There is a wonderful behind the scenes documentary. There is no affiliation, BTS is serving in the military right now. This song came out 2020. Suga had this song in his pocket for a while. He had really wanted to work with a choir.
Jungkook who sang the high note break down plays the drums. And the cross over from dancing to drumming is one that works. We hear beats and are used to moving to them.
😘💜🫰🏻🫶🏻
UCLA marching band played on this track. Dancers are The Lab out of LA. This was filmed in LA.
This MV is preferred by ARMY, but this song also has a second MV which is official one, and there is a Hollywood production and a lot of special effects :) you can watch it for comparison. 💜💜
Not everyone prefer this one.
@@mev9752of course not, but this one is more recommended and has more views. I like both, so it's nice when we can see reactions to both MVs.
@@agnieszkam.1378 it has more views cuz came before , and the other got hella filter by RUclips so they couldn’t have their first number one.
They actually did a perfomance of ON with a marching band. It was awesome
Did you watch with subtitles?
Hi Guys. I like your reactions but may I make a suggestion. A part of what makes BTS amazing is also their lyrics. Please put on subtitles if available and does not say autogenerated. If the subtitles say they’re autogenerated then don’t use those because the translations are not correct.
❣BTS “On” Kinetic Manifesto Film MV. There’s a reason it has over 600 million views. Especially the choreography this is the one of the most spectacularly amazing, as well as the vocals & rap from the individual members, while seeing the amazingly phenomenal, absolutely breathtakingly outstanding performance choreographed dance as well as all the backup dancers with marching band, while reading the lyric translation, you’ll realize that this song is ultimately in reality about BTS never giving up against all odds, but even more encouraging army to do the same saying that they will be there to support all the way throughout! Unbelievably this was written and released at end of 2019 before the pandemic fully happened. they even were as i mentioned in US for awhile aside from preparing to perform at the Grammys so did their dance practices in LA as well, with the actual dancers from The Lab. Sienna Lalou who was also involved with ❣️Jimin’s equally spectacular choreography in his must see song “Set Me Free Pt.2”, along with The Lab dancers actually performed in this “On” Kinetic Manifesto MV filmed in LA at I believe a reservoir damn, other army can be more specific: but it fits well, emphasizing & showing off the performance that much more! This song meant so much to so many army during the pandemic, giving them so much support! The BTS On MV takes the song into a way more deep jungian phycological interpretation which is indeed is helpful even necessary for the MV, but it just didn’t hit as deep, since it’s more introspective , as the amazingly choreographed performance piece, that not only talked about BTS inner struggles but seemingly emphasized more so their support for army being with us to endure whatever comes, also was filmed so amazingly well seeing the dance and the choreography at all angles, as well as while watching them dance while reading the lyrics just had way way more impact! You’ll see what I mean! 👍🙏🙌😍🔥🔥
You should absolutely react to BTS 'ON' DOCUMENTARY FILM: DIALOGUE you'll love it. Trust me, you'll NOT regret!!!!💜💜
Proud to be my 🌟BTS ⭐army - and proud to say "this is our B T S - their song/lyric, their performances: live & video music.. awsome! ❣💜💗💜💗💜💗💜
UCLA marching band played music, Blue devils dance crew were in the video. there is making music "Comentary film", also behind the scenes for shooting this kinetic manifesto film, also behind the scenes for the official music video
If you guys like lyrics then turn on the lyrics. They are usually meaningful. RM talks about how he used to write poetry and his lyrics are really clever. Some of it can go over your head if you don't understand the Korean references, in which case you can check out the explanation videos. There are some great people who have deciphered their lyrics and can tell you all the word play that just blows your mind. They are all song writers and contribute to the songs melodies and lyrics. On is about confronting your shadow, the dark side of yourself - bring the pain on. It's scary but must be done to truly accept and love yourself. This is a part of a whole concept based on carl jung's psychological analysis of one's personality.
The Lab were the dancers and the girl who is shown first is the cheorographer. She was like 19 or something at the time. UCLA was the marching band I think.
Edit to say thanks for your reaction!
You literally have so much greatness to witness from BTS and other k pop artists as well 💜
There is documentary video on the behind of On including the marching band
Just so you know, it's mostly useless to read comments under their MVs because they're usually random comments for the algorithm. ARMY does that all the time because we're afraid that our views won't be counted and stuff like that. You can watch Boracity's "Why the Industry is terrified of BTS" video essay if you're curious about why exactly. It's not too long, with a voice-over and is well-researched!
I'm glad that you're pointing out their great synchronicity and rythm, although they are musicians. All of them produce, compose and write but they also play instruments. For example, Jin plays the guitar, SUGA plays the piano and the guitar, RM now learn the saxophone in the military, V used to play the saxophone and the trumpet and JK plays the guitar and the drums. Not sure about j-hope and Jimin though. And besides that they also like to learn other instruments but don't have the same skill with them
Also, the group of dancers is called The Lab. They are extremely talented. Consider that anyone working with BTS is always worth checking out!
For the Rap Line thing...only 3 of them are rappers (RM, SUGA and j-hope). Although JK is a sub-rapper since he used to rap in their early days and records all their guides, including the rappers' parts. J-hope also contributes to vocals in some songs. RM and SUGA are mainly rappers, although they did work a lot on their vocals which shows in their latest works (D-Day for SUGA, Indigo and RPWP for RM). The others - Jin, Jimin and V - are vocalists and don't rap in general
RM and SUGA both started rapping, songwriting, and producing at 13 (don't know if it's Korean or Global age). They were both in the underground hiphop scene and RM was quite renowned for his age. SUGA was producing "professionally" at the age of 16 (he was basically working for nothing - getting completely ripped off). J-hope only started rapping after he became a trainee (he was a really good street dancer and won competitions) but showed a lot of talent and honed his skills along the other trainees. He learned to write and produce quickly and has been on par with RM and SUGA for a while now - even though he has less experience.
They were extremely lucky with their vocalists as well. They scouted Jin on the street for his looks only (he didn't sing or dance at all) and discovered a gem just waiting to be polished - a silver voice. Jimin was a top contemporary dancer student and the label wanted him to rap but SUGA convinced them to let him sing and they discovered his unique and wonderful voice that bring a lot to the variety of voices of the group and make BTS stand out. V was just a regular teenager that had a lot of talent in many fields but didn't even intended to audition - he just went to support his friend - but BigHit gave him a chance and discovered his beautiful soulful baritone. And JK participated in a singing competition and was scouted by 7 different companies (6 of them being much bigger than BigHit) but JK chose the small almost bankrupt BigHit only because he saw RM perform and fell for him, haha. That's how they discovered a jack of all trades with perfect pitch
About the military, they only started their military service in 2022-2023 - the last 4 joined in December 2023. It's 18 months but SUGA's is longer (21 months) since he's a social worker. He had an accident when he was a trainee that ruined his shoulder. He got surgery in 2020 but was judged inept to do a regular service. Jin was released on June 12th and j-hope will be released in October. The rest will be released in June 2025
So, to answer your question, they have no tie to the military. It's just mandatory for Korean men. This was shot in 2020 - 2 years before Jin joined. They aren't allowed to make new content while being in the military so they worked extremely hard to make content before enlisting so they could still release content for ARMY
There is a documentary on the making of this, and they used UCLA marching band along with other musicians
Love this song Listen to Jin’s Epiphany awesome song. And The Truth Untold both Beautiful Songs 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
The main vocal8st, Jungkook, rapped in the BTS song No More Dream. Also, Jin, known as the silver voice also rapped in No More Dream. V rapped Ddang once during FESTA. Jimin rappes w Suga in Tony Montana.
The Blue Devils Drum and Bugle Corps, The Lab Dance Studio. Filmed in Sepulveda Dam in San Fernando Valley LA.
This video was shot in the US, using different camera's and drones. The dancers are from the Lab, led by Sienna LaLau. Who worked with BTS more, and also accompanied them at US tours and concerts. There is another official MV for this song. Which is very filmic, movielike. Worth a view.
These guys have been really good at turning on subtitles in the past. A lot of these reaction videos are filmed in 1 sitting and then released throughout the week. The J-Hope react video and this 1 were filmed on the same day and it looks like they just forgot to turn them on that day. I'm sure they'll be more on top of that in the future so I think a couple of y'all need to chill. 💜
Hi guys! I'm Nataly from Brazil and I've been a BTS fan since 2015
Looove your big screen. This MV is sooo lit. The choreo is fantastic. Love the lyrics.
You are right, it is the UCLA marching band on this track, and they were so excited to part of this video. Choreo was by The Lab
It was filmed in LA
This is recorded in L.A the girl that starts the Mv is the choreographer. bts write and produced there songs, 2 members are trained dancers and 2 is from underground rap
I'm so glad I chose to check RUclips 1 more time before going to bed lol it's 3 am I just got done binging a bunch of your video reactions keep up the great work 🙌💜 now let me watch this real quick 😅
For live performances, with subtitles, of a couple of rapline songs, I'll try to add a link to my replies. The songs are 'Ugh' and 'Outro: Tear'. It's just the rappers on these two songs
For 'Ugh'

For 'Outro:Tear'

The lyrics are really important so these have subtitles. They each write their own lyrics and help with composition and production on the majority of their songs (about 400 songs)
You need to use subtitles in every BTS song coz it's always meaningfull.
I recommend & know you’ll enjoy watching, when you get a chance to also see from BTS: 🔥❣Jimin “Set Me Free Pt.2” MV, (turn cc on for the ever so important, meaningful eng subs), from his first solo FACE album, so you can see some of the similarities, from BTS On Kinetic Manifesto MV. Since Jimin himself made a point to go specifically to LA, in the US, to use the same choir. Also had Sienna, the same choreographer, be involved with the choreo for his song along with another & even his own input! Also even used “going insane to stay the same” similar lyrics to this song. You’ll be blown away with the spectacularly amazing dancing of so many all in sync as well as Jimin’s own dancing, his vocals, the lyrics he wrote, & the epic music he wrote. Jimin was hands on in the production as well. even involved with the set design for the MV, which was his idea.👍🙏❤🔥🐥😍🔥🔥
Subtitles always, y’all!!!!
So there like 3 band/crew that are part of it, the music did UCLA marching band with choir and jazz band and of course BTS. The video is by dance crew The Lab, the girl at the begining did the choreography for it, and the marching band that is part of this video is the Blue Devils. ;)
The documentary is awesome. BTS utilizes The Lab-dancers The Blue Devils marching band and I think UCLA’s gospel choir. FYI, anyone that works with BTS is given full credits. BTS also pays more than the standard pay too.
This IS epic 🔥 BTS forever 💜♾️💟💜✌️🇮🇪
Shout out to Harry Mack my friend 👏🤩
Bts is the biggest group in the world, the have 6 nr 1 songs at Billboard 100 6 n1 Albums at Billboard 200 and 12 billboards awards. Also 2 members have also nr 1 songs at Billboard 100 the have been nominated 5 times at Grammy and perform at grammy i like Grammy 2022 when the got a standing ovation. the have perform at evry stadium all over the world, even 2 days at Wembley. And in 2021 the had 4 days stadium concert in L.A and 3 months later in 2022 the had 4 stadium concert in Las vegas all sold out
I agree with the guy in black. RAP is a really intense art form. They have to be quick, witty, and very cerebral. It is a pity that the art form is somewhat under appreciated by most mainstream audience and general population as it is heavily squeezed under identity politics.
our RL also write a lot of vocal line songs as well. as well as produce and compose many of them. and also since our rappers write their own verses the write pretty much for every song
Felicitări BTS cei mai talentați frumoși perfecți tare dor de ei ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
turn on the CC. the lyrics on all their songs are important.
All the best with your gig's hope they are all complete sell out's and you all have a 'safe and great time'. 💜 BTS have a huge Discography over 300 tracks they are now they had their 11th anniversary Fiesta only 3days ago. They are not stuck in just one genre either that's because they believe in Artist Development and being 7 they have similar and different music tastes as well. They are not your 'normal' Kpop (Idol) group but more trend setter within the Idol (kpop) Industry.
Closed captions! The Genius of BTS is in the lyrics!
king of pop if you wanna know☺️
Watch the official MV of ON with subs. None”boyband” has a meaningful song like this, I wish tho.
RM and Suga (aka Agust D) are just that Real Rappers who write their own lyric's (Suga produces his own beats not just for himself but other artist and produces songs for other artists) and they both came up battle rapping in the Underground Hop Hip Scene in South Korea. J Hope (Real Rapper) learnt to write and Rap once when joined BTS he was also part of that Underground Hip Hop scene as the youngest member of the Street Dance Crew 'Neuron'.
wdym "real rapper"? J hope writes and produces too. Yes, he may have not been in the game as long as Namjoon and Yoongi but that doesn't take away from the fact, he is indeed a "real rapper"
@@-ryonbyu I never said J Hope wasn't a 'real Rapper. I just commented on his journey to becoming a Rapper eg how he came to be a Rapper and it started for him in Hip Hop Culture eg the dance part of Hip Hop Culture. I even said he learnt to write and Rap once he joined BTS eg that's where he became a real Rapper not a typical 'kpop' Rappers. Not saying their aren't other Real Rappers in Kpop there are a few of them.
@@eileencritchley4630 I get what you mean now, but the wording is what had me read it wrong because it seemed like you were only calling Namjoon and Yoongi “real rappers”. But that was my bad.
@@-ryonbyu No worries I think I could have worded it better as well. I should have put Real in front of Rapper for J Hope as well in fact I think that might work well I'll go back and edit it. Thank you for posting as it's made me think more as to what I was trying to say with my first post. So big thank you💜💜💜💜💜💜
@@eileencritchley4630 sorry for my misunderstanding!! Borahae 💜💜
BTS 👑 the best, unique and most loved by army 🫶💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
They all are musician.
You are ALWAYS being told in your videos to TURN ON THE CLOSE CAPTIONS but you never listen. Feels like you're really not interested in understanding the meaning of their songs. I don't know. I find it weird that you watch it like this. Coz the normal and usual way of watching is you TURN ON the CC if it's not in english, be it MV, Movie, TV Series, etc. Otherwise, how will you be able to understand it right? You SHOULD turn on the CC next time. Coz if you still don't, what's the point of reacting to a video that you don't understand. Unless, you're doin this just for the views.
What is a musician? How do you define that term?
BTS members play instruments, compose, are songwriters, produce, sing and rap as well as dance. Their musicality is undeniable. Every one of them has written, composed and produced their music. Multiple members play multiple instruments. They are not a slicky produced product. They came together under a broke label as their only group, and they carried that label to the top. Their label is now the biggest label in S Korea, and BTS are carrying their whole industry on their backs. They are not famous because they are cute or because they are a marketed boy band package. They are famous because of the depth of their music and lyricism and character. Their subject matter is real and raw and courageously vulnerable. Their lyrics are being studied in colleges around the world. Some of their lyrics were put in the S Korean Hangeul Museum as a beautiful example Korean poetry.
In case you are not aware, they are not *just* the biggest Korean group, nor the biggest "boy band" - they are the biggest musical group/band in the world and have been for years. They fill the biggest stadiums in the world like the biggest touring bands, while also topping the charts and competing with the likes of Beyonce, Drake and Taylor - all with no Western radio play and almost none of their music in English. They didn't win that kind of following just on catchy tunes and good looks.
I recommend watching magic shop by Bts. There is an amazing live performance on the channel enjoy bts more with english subs.
Thanks for your reaction 💜
BTS🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
There are 6 or 7 versions of this song: mv, Fallon, film, field, PTD lives...
Hi guys, do you turn on the subtitles but we just can’t see them? It would be helpful to point that out in the beginning of the video. If they’re not turned on, then please do. BTS’ lyrics are a big component of their music. EDIT: However if the captions say ‘auto generated’ they should be left/turned off. Most BTS & members MVs thankfully do come with subtitles.
Plizzz Plizz press Cc for translation....BTS is a genius group the most important it is lirics
Hi! I really want to watch and enjoy your reactions fully, but each time I see you still aren't using subtitles, it's a disappointment. I've seen many say this in your comments and it's come to the point that I think I'm going to start clicking off when that's the case. The lyrics are a HUGE component to BTS' musicality and it's bordering on insulting not to even have them on, even if you don't catch every line.
thank you for saying this!! I've tried to watch their other BTS reactions and keep HOPING they will have the sense to actually read the lyrics and every time I am disappointed. Atp it feels like willful ignorance, especially considering how many comments they continually get asking for the cc's. 🙄
@@sherry5808 Agreed. I gave them the benefit of the doubt because they were new to this and seemed enthusiastic, but the grace period is expiring. It's a shame because ARMY will naturally check out music and hype people with genuine appreciation for the Tannies. But if we smell purely clout-chasing and self promotion? Not happening :\
No CC? BTS lyrics are the best.
Try Daechwita by SUGA / August D, thanks
There is a making of for this song. They used the UCLA Marching and Jazz band in the song plus a gospel chorus (you hear them in the vocal rises in the song). In the music video are the Blue Devils drum core but the dancers are from and LA company called The Lab. This is the documentary about the marching band and choral parts behind the song ruclips.net/video/npfs6afvIhk/видео.html
Hi! I like your reactions. You should watch a bts guide. There's the Taylors guide which isn't totally up to date but well made and digestible. It will put many things in perspective!
They all write, produce, compose etc. The main songmakers are RM, J-hope and Suga. They also almost all play instruments. Some play guitar, some piano, some saxophone, some trumpet etc.
Oh yesss
You need to watch the documentary film of O.N... 💜
Aqui pelo BTS 💜💜💜🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
The marching band featuring on the song is UCLA Marching Band ...
Keep the subtitle on😐
I suggest you check out BTS (방탄소년단) 'ON' Commentary Film : Dialogue to see how they made the song ON and it's on the BANGTANTV channel.
Sia does the backing vocals on this song, listen from the album.
The funny fact that RM is in the military marching band playing the saxophone at he same time
J-HOPE is the Lead dancer of the group and he is the master of performance, you should react to his Lollapalooza performance he write his own songs he is amazing 🤩
The "sweat has left the chat" joke:
There is a line in this song Jungkook sings "My blood and tears"
That ARMY was making a joke because BTS also has a very famous song called "Blood, Sweat & Tears" from 2016.
Yes and they used drone camera's as well.
If you’re a lyricist, why aren’t you reading the lyrics?
UCLA Marching Band, Blue Devils Drum Line, Choir in LA, Choreographed by The Lab "Sienna Lau!" 🙋🏽♀️😏👏🏽🕺🏽🎶🎤👑🥇💜✌️🙏🇺🇸 #MOTS7 #Borahae
Bom dia! Tenho 73 anos e amo o BTS! Sou do Brasil!
