Hi from Canada! 🇨🇦 I stumbled across one of your videos and I just wanted to say how much I respect and enjoy them. Love your eloquence, thoughtfulness, and sincerity in your opinions. Keep up the great work, and fly your truth! As a side note, awesome getting to know Tetris here, he's also got great energy! 😁
This is perfect! You guys made me cry happy tears when u said that all 7 of the guys (BTS of course) are so great together, analyzing all the dynamite performances.. yes it is rare, it is definitely fate (as JH said it before) 💜
Remember that they performed with Lil Nas X in the 2020 ceremony, but performed Black Swan I believe the next day at James Cordon. Such a missed opportunity.
50+ NY ARMY Jimin & V bias - took my daughters to SoFi in Nov to see our boys - BEST DAY EVER 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 I teach HS Art and all my kiddos know about my k-pop, k-drama obsessions and I play BTS in class whether they like or not
What an amazing and mature conversation about human behaviour. My mother language is not English and I grew up listening English music that I did not even understand. Now that I understand English and my family too they judge my love for BTS and their music in Korean. I am like... are you kidding me. Prejudices and privileges of some made this world a dark place to live. 💜💪! Dynamite deserved that GRAMMY, period.
So I just discovered BTS a year ago, when I was with my Mom in the hospital 4-5 months before she passed away. They became my escape during that time and I have fallen down the rabbit hole with no signs of reaching the bottom... I turned 40 last year and so much of their music has such a 90's vibe and that is what I grew up on and I love. And I'm extremely eclectic, so the fact that they are into so many different genres is highly appealing to me. They're talented, humble, chaotic, caring, and love ARMY.... What is not to like!? Like Suga said, you find us when you need us, and I needed them. 💜
Pop artists typically say that they want to be “unique” rather than be the best. But Jimin truly is one of a kind - it is impossible to forget him after seeing him and hearing him sing. The dancing of K-pop boy groups is usually a fusion of hip-hop and street dance. Jimin, however, adds the flexibility inherent in modern dance. Jimin’s incredible vocal range, which is rare even among female vocalists, is a weapon that enriches BTS’ songs. In addition, Jimin’s bold emotional expression, no matter what type of song he is singing, has played a big part in the evolution of BTS, whose songs originally centered on powerful hip-hop. Over time, BTS have expanded the focus of their lyrics, going from commenting on social issues to considering youth, love, existence itself and the hopefulness and harmony that can be arrived at through a positive daily outlook. Jimin's beautiful vocals, his voice is so captivating and colorful. The feeling of nostalgia and warmth that Jimin transmits with his voice and interpretation
We as armies know that BTS should win the Grammy but we also know that they are not welcomed in it. They are not going to win because other American Artists are overshadowed by BTS. Most probably they also don't want Armies to be present in the event. We saw at the AMA or Billboard Award show wherein we, Armies supported BTS throughout the award shows, and some Artists don't like or appreciate it. Too bad! They have also their own fans, where are they to support them. It's not BTS or Armies problem, right? Anyways, we as Armies will just love and support BTS, and who knows, this time BTS might win something at the Grammy.
Thank you for doing this, Tetris. We got to know you as a human being. It helps us communicate with you better and have understanding. Welcome to BTS side. "Florida-Georgia Line." I can relate. 😊💜
I think you should take the part where you and Tetris talked about the differences between sports fans and BTS fans and write an article for the LA TIMES. I think I read the only difference is that sports fans have the component of domestic & social violence, where Pop Fans don't. I think it's an extremely interesting topic and you should write and article. I'm adding on to my post, after the article, write a book. That's right, You and Tetris WRITE A BOOK about BTS ~ Gender Contamination.
If you could explain how you apply the concept of gender contamination to it, I'd be appreciative. I don't see it as men feeling proprietary and territorial over fandom behavior. I'm stuck on the pov that it's men being threatened by women and the power they have to set trends, tastes and standards. So they create a double standard and get away with it because of society's ingrained misogyny and gender stereotypes that women should be quiet, demure, and only attracted to one masculine type. Can you help me out fitting the two together? mah brain hurtz
Hello. I'm from Ukraine🇺🇦 And I just want to say thank you for every word that you were saying about BTS in this video. Every single word is so true. BTS is the group of people who meant to become legends. And they're really heeling our souls. Thank you for not to be afraid to speak at loud about what you like. 💜 PS. Funny that in BTS my bias is Jimin and bias wrecker is JK and in BP I like Lisa and Jenny 💜
Sending love and thoughts from the U.S. (eastern North Carolina specifically) I hope you and your family are well! I'm praying for you & your people 🙏 against the tyrant that's attacking you!
BTS are e legendary that western people still ignore their popularity but sorry BTS will always slapping your face and they are not going anywhere coz our fandom is massive and we will always bring them on top💪💪💪💜💜💜💜🥳🥳🥳🥳 Thanks Brooke and Tetris fortalking about this topic our boys deserve the best!! 💜💜💜💜💜
I haven't stanned a group since *NSYNC and Britney until BTS also! I like pop kpop almost every genre of music. I'm a story driven person so anything like that that I enjoy but not. Involved. I was just a regular grown up fighting for my life in this cold world actually super into kdrama on and off (not realizing so many were idols or were) hahaha. But after the pandemic I started paying attention from Rowoon (SF9) to JUNHO(Got7) then the algorithm goes to work and somehow I found a clip of Jin and RM talking about happiness and dowwwwwn the rabbit hole and its given me back something I lost a long time ago and BTS. I'm in love with those guys and everything they have or had going on *whoosh*. Yeah. Thank you lol
Noooo don't be overr!!! I loved this so so much. Every topic was so crucial and so well conversed and all the fanboy/girl moments had me smiling till my mouth hurt ♥
Loved this conversation...the stigma is unfair. The same passions are not judged with other things. Need more of these conversations. Stanning/Fanning can definately be a job in itself.
I really love this episode, thank you Brooke and Tetris for sharing your thoughts and opinions about this topic. Both of your opinions are in a very mature and fair way. My bias is Jimin and my bias wrecker are the rest of the guys.
OMGEEEEE Tetris....... I hear you. Even though I am now a senior adult, I am still as passionate about my fave things, such as Disney (Mickey is my main mouse) and music (all genres). 💜💜💜
The phrase “if you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all” has to be put back into society. We don’t all agree, like the same things. It is okay people. That is what makes all of us a limited edition. It’s good to have diversity. Thank you Brooke for having this.
Wow, what a great interview! 40 mins went so fast, I didn't even realise it. I really like what you say about kpop and BTS in general. I wish there were more people like you in music industry who appreciate the guys and their craft wholeheartedly.
Y’all talking about the power of pop honestly really just helped me become more okay with BTS shift towards pop music. Not going to lie…I judge pop music a bit too. It’s not what I prefer to listen too. But I love BTS and support whatever they do, but it can be hard when they’ve mostly been releasing pop singles these past two years. I trust them but didn’t really get it. Y’all helped me appreciate one, why they’ve been doing that (which makes so much sense during a pandemic) and two, why they are probably so okay with doing that…because they don’t stigmatize pop
I call it my secret life. I'm 57 yrs old and my daughter ran across Shinhwa in 2015 on You Tube. Then the fan world started. My 3 closest friends have no idea that I listen to KPop. I have actually reduced listening to Western music by about 95%. Listening to my high school 80's music feels like I'm stuck in the glory days. Kpop is predominantly guy groups and female groups. My opinion, and everyone has one, western music relies on soft-porn. They have little creativity (don't dance or have interesting lyrics / productions / storylines) they rely on the "sex sells" model. They keep listeners in a perpetual state of "excitement". BTS's interview question that turns my stomach is - "What's your favorite food when in the states?" Seriously?! How insulting. I would ask if they have ever been surprised by a B Side song that became successful? How often do they use studio musicians? Do they realize how using orchestral instruments bring wider culture to fans that are used to a couple guitars, drums, and maybe keyboards and synthesizers? ON used a marching band theme and gospel singers for backup. What Western group offers that? I am so thankful for these groups that have broadened my musical horizon: BTS, NCT, Seventeen, Stray Kids, and all individual projects from each group. Concerts we've attended: 2 BTS, 1 NCT, 1 Got 7, 1 Seventeen and 1 Stray Kids. I can't wait for concert season to come back!
This is a beautiful discussion, I have stopped caring about what people think about my love for BTS💜 I love what I get from them and how much they make me the best version of myself,I pity those who don't know them 💜💜💜I love this discussion
This is such a wholesome video! Great topics and back to back conversation, clearly you both are professionals BUT more importantly, great people, smart, mature, sensitive and admirable. Can’t wait to see more ☺️☺️
What an amazing conversation! It was interesting to hear Tetris' opinion on why the Grammys are so hesitant to award BTS. His point was very logical but I believe that there is an active attempt to keep BTS from getting even more popular because the West doesn't have much to gain from their success. If they were afraid of being seen as pandering, they wouldn't shamelessly milk BTS' popularity for ratings (wasn't it unusual to let an artist, whose sole nomination category was not even televised, perform at the end of the show? BTS' contribution and the acknowledgment they got as a result did not match) Anyways it's always great to hear an army origin story and I'm glad we got to know Tetris', he seems really cool Brooke, you're creating amazing content, please keep spoiling us! Thank you 💜
Really enjoyed this interview, you and Tetris are so sweet.❤️ Now I want to check out your other fandom culture interviews, it was really interesting, thank you! :)
You guys' interaction is so... I'm absolutely living for it. And it's so wonderful hearing people from the industry, who are also fans, talk about these forefront topics. Much love to you both 💜 Thanks Brooke for bringing us such great content. I'd totally love for you to get to interview the guys someday 😁💜
Tetris! My NSYNC bias was JC as well 🥲. I became ARMY because of Jimin, he was the one to seduce me into the wonderful world of BTS, I tought Jimin would be my bias until SUGA popped up to claim me and I just couldn't refuse.
This video is literally d best 43mins video I’ve see my entire life,I watched all d way thru,no pausing,no forwarding whatsoever ....I enjoyed every bit of d conversation from d first minute to d last,I loved how u guys held d conversation nd made it interesting for d viewers This shows how professional u guys are,love u Tetris kelly 🥰 I’m a jimin bias too, jk nd v are my bias wrecker,love u morri 💋💋
I love this episode just as much as the last, not a fan of cancel culture honestly, I'm happy you guys move past it, specially Tetris, I m sorry that happen but I really support you man 😘
This video popped up on my feed, and I enjoyed it very much even though I already watched it before. You are both genuine and I loved everything about this conversation. Keep on being awesome!
so true it is the moments when you start to binge videos and see their personality on stage that it gets you. their chemistry is out of this world. and i am a jimin bias too so I agree with teris 100% hehe he is perfection
well mostly jimin bias first until you change your bias and bias wrecker was like jimin is the open door to know bts then there you are ur bias change any of the bts boys 😊😊🤗🤗🤗 I think as a new fan here and stalk2 all there staffs and events ...yahh I think they deserved the Grammy
I remember being disappointed by something Tetris said awhile back but I’m glad I didn’t remember what it was lol. Bc when he explained it it all came back and I was like Oh yeah! I’m so glad that’s what he really meant!” 😘
Wow great episode! I’m really enjoying this. PTD was really the best, and army are the best crowd honestly. I could talk to people and it was all very comfortable and easy. I really really like this tremendously, you were both so cute and Brooke you’re indeed a great conversationalist. You fill me with envy 😂
It's amazing how much Kpop has evolved in the US in the last few years. So happy for the recognition of all these talented artists. Even with this, I think the American music industry has purposely pushed Kpop aside and not give them exposure because they were scared how Kpop can the over. They knew that once the Western industry would experience this new genre that it will take over!! Coming from a hard Kpop stan, been there since the beginning... can't remember but proud to say hard stan Kpop music since 20-25 yrs....
Love that you do podcasts now and a lot of interviews cause i really think you have so much more to share and to say that reaction videos are not enough for me ✋ I think that u are really talented, i also admire your personality 💜
BTS is a force to be racked with and I am proud to call myself as an ARMY. The team grown organically and have done their level best to produce good and honest music. I guess the gatekeeper in the western world are not ready for BTS to win big such as Grammys (that is traditionally western focus) & tend to downplay their talent & armies. When many artists falls under Covid-19 crack (2020 & 2021), BTS shine brighter 💜✨ Also, RM is my bias too! He is very talented, articulate and overall an amazing individual. I love how mature he is, the way he view the world and translate it through his lyrics are amazing! Mono helps me a lot to calm my anxiety. I have to agree that, Pop & K-pop deserve more recognition especially in awards show. Love how invested both of you with BTS. I am obsessed with OT7; their interviews with Jimmy Kimmel & James Cordon got my attention then I started listen to their music and lyrics breakdown. I am blown away!! Also, their genuine personality and talent got me to continue hooked.
I don't know how people get to stan for one group and choose their own bias.. I'm a multifandom fans.. I love BTS, BLACKPINK, GFRIEND, TWICE, GOT7, EXO, STRAY KIDS and many more😊 I STAN THEM ALL❤❤❤
Hey there, great video, loved the respectful exchange of opinions, awesome 💜🙏 New sub from South Africa 🇿🇦 Army since 2015 Have to edit this to just say - I love the beautiful way you both talk about KPop artists in general, and specifically about BTS - I never hear this kind of positivity and joy and appreciation in my real life - thank you 🙏💜
I remember that video that got Tetris “cancelled” and just thinking “oh no, my guy! They gonna eat you. “ just because I knew enough to understand what you were trying to say but also fully aware of how some were going to take it. I was so happy when you didn’t let it phase you and kept loving what you love
Thank you for this. BTS was and still is being disrespected for years!!! I truly respect BTS for not giving up!!! Due to Them more Asian musicians are getting a chance. They literally opened the door! What is sad that BTS deserved to win a Grammy for their album MOTS7 and BE. Also for the best video film for the song ON/Black Swan art film. Also the best dance performance for ON and Black Swan. Life Goes On is also really underestamated! Yes, the Western (industry) world is truly treated with disrespect and looked down up on. I haven't watched The Grammy's for years because, it is really all aranged beforehand. I watched it last year because, of BTS. I truly hoped that they would have least win with DYNAMITE. That song and also RM Suga JHope Jin Jungkook V Jimin everytime different performances made so many people happy during COVID19. I liked Korean music since Seo Taiji and Boys. Then after that I liked BTS. I like all Seven Members equaly each for their own unique personality/talent. With one side note. I do respect Jimin for having the shortest training time from all of them. I've seen Them live just like you did but, in my country The Netherlands. In my country they are also not treating BTS with respect! I also like Nightwish a Finish Symphonic Metal band. They are so good!! I have seen Them live too. I really don't understand that they never gotten nominated or won.... My wish for each member of BTS and for Them together is; to Stay Healthy and that Their Friendship will last and that Their dreams will come true. They have always been under so much pressure and still are. Take care and warm greetings from The Netherlands 👍💜🍀💜🍀🤘🇳🇱🌷🤗
Love it!! T I'm a Jimin stan too and I'm sooooooooo jealous that you've met him and the boys. My bias wrecker has changed 6 times lol 😆 maybe that says that geez I can't live without them all 7 are just perfect. Loved this video!!!💜💜💜💜💛💜💛💜💜💛💛💛💛💛💜
this was such a genuine interview and I felt this 100% ! you said everything that I wanted to be said and also Why do I have to explain the type of music I like and I often have these convos with people saying oh kpop kpop and I 'm like it's just the same as any other music that the person would like so thank you so much for stressing that out! I have been a kpop stan since SJ with a record of 13 years now! Amazing interview!
I am ARMY to the bones and I am not ashamed, even if I grew just listening to rock and some 90´s pop. I refused to listen to K por because I never liked boy bands but the moment I listened to them I was hooked forever. When you grow older, you just don´t care what other people think about you or your preferences.

I love watching you and Tetris for more hours, do it again please🙏
I agree 100% regarding Black Swan! The music, vocals, dance and filming. The song and MV deserved a Grammy nod and more recognition.
Yes, Black Swan is on a very high level.
Remember that they performed with Lil Nas X in the 2020 ceremony, but performed Black Swan I believe the next day at James Cordon. Such a missed opportunity.
@@tylertakamori2541 Yes, it was sad that BTS didn't get the change to perform Black Swan then.
Also so sad that the radiostations didn't play it.

Jimin has a amazing talent, his tone of voice is magical! He studied contemporary dance so his dance is so stylish and gorgeous.
Pop artists typically say that they want to be “unique” rather than be the best. But Jimin truly is one of a kind - it is impossible to forget him after seeing him and hearing him sing.

Jimin's beautiful vocals, his voice is so captivating and colorful. The feeling of nostalgia and warmth that Jimin transmits with his voice and interpretation
Yes like Tetris comment about all of bts but love the way he said jimin is just perfect and it’s true ❤❤❤

Tetris! My NSYNC bias was JC as well 🥲. I became ARMY because of Jimin, he was the one to seduce me into the wonderful world of BTS, I tought Jimin would be my bias until SUGA popped up to claim me and I just couldn't refuse.
Veeeeery late to the party, but I just love this. Tetri is AMAZING!!!!💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Grammy is very small award for BTS
Then why so pressed?
Very well spoken....here's to many years of creating beautiful memories! 💜

Thank you.
This video popped up on my feed, and I enjoyed it very much even though I already watched it before. You are both genuine and I loved everything about this conversation. Keep on being awesome!
so true it is the moments when you start to binge videos and see their personality on stage that it gets you. their chemistry is out of this world. and i am a jimin bias too so I agree with teris 100% hehe he is perfection
I love you guys conversation! ❤️💜
well mostly jimin bias first until you change your bias and bias wrecker was like jimin is the open door to know bts then there you are ur bias change any of the bts boys 😊😊🤗🤗🤗 I think as a new fan here and stalk2 all there staffs and events ...yahh I think they deserved the Grammy
I remember being disappointed by something Tetris said awhile back but I’m glad I didn’t remember what it was lol. Bc when he explained it it all came back and I was like Oh yeah! I’m so glad that’s what he really meant!” 😘
Please react jimin killing voice's
Wow great episode! I’m really enjoying this. PTD was really the best, and army are the best crowd honestly. I could talk to people and it was all very comfortable and easy.
I really really like this tremendously, you were both so cute and Brooke you’re indeed a great conversationalist. You fill me with envy 😂
It's amazing how much Kpop has evolved in the US in the last few years. So happy for the recognition of all these talented artists. Even with this, I think the American music industry has purposely pushed Kpop aside and not give them exposure because they were scared how Kpop can the over. They knew that once the Western industry would experience this new genre that it will take over!! Coming from a hard Kpop stan, been there since the beginning... can't remember but proud to say hard stan Kpop music since 20-25 yrs....
Really enjoyed this! You both are such natural speakers and so genuine and easy going 🙌🏻
I enjoyed your conversation guys 😊
Tetris! ❤
You have a nice voice to hear🗣️👂💜,Tetris!! 😊
Love that you do podcasts now and a lot of interviews cause i really think you have so much more to share and to say that reaction videos are not enough for me ✋ I think that u are really talented, i also admire your personality 💜
Agreed!! Giving this a thumbs up is not enough. You deserve a comment, too!
Loved this podcast...tq for sharing it on YT. Both of you are super nice people...love when both of you talk about BTS.... just love it 💜
I feel music is a universal language, should be without barriers and prejudice, key is to have have an open mind and not judge
What an amazing conversation. Loved every minute of it. 👏🏼💜🥰
Best interview I’ve watched! Love love your work! Thank you for bringing Tetris on! Borahae!!!!!!
BTS is a force to be racked with and I am proud to call myself as an ARMY. The team grown organically and have done their level best to produce good and honest music. I guess the gatekeeper in the western world are not ready for BTS to win big such as Grammys (that is traditionally western focus) & tend to downplay their talent & armies. When many artists falls under Covid-19 crack (2020 & 2021), BTS shine brighter 💜✨
Also, RM is my bias too! He is very talented, articulate and overall an amazing individual. I love how mature he is, the way he view the world and translate it through his lyrics are amazing! Mono helps me a lot to calm my anxiety.
I have to agree that, Pop & K-pop deserve more recognition especially in awards show. Love how invested both of you with BTS. I am obsessed with OT7; their interviews with Jimmy Kimmel & James Cordon got my attention then I started listen to their music and lyrics breakdown. I am blown away!! Also, their genuine personality and talent got me to continue hooked.
I like his name. Also a wise and thoughtful person.
I love this conversation, so engaging and relatable. I love to hear your experience being an army. We share the same bias and bias wrecker, Tetris. 😊
You are the wisest and sweetest people, love you
BTS paved the way !!!
OMGGGGG Tetris!!!!
More power to your podcast brooke!
I don't know how people get to stan for one group and choose their own bias.. I'm a multifandom fans.. I love BTS, BLACKPINK, GFRIEND, TWICE, GOT7, EXO, STRAY KIDS and many more😊 I STAN THEM ALL❤❤❤
Hey there, great video, loved the respectful exchange of opinions, awesome 💜🙏
New sub from South Africa 🇿🇦 Army since 2015
Have to edit this to just say - I love the beautiful way you both talk about KPop artists in general, and specifically about BTS - I never hear this kind of positivity and joy and appreciation in my real life - thank you 🙏💜
Welcome! Thank you for watching and subscribing! 💜
Brooke is my people. I got into kpop around gen 2.
I LOVED this episode 😍 Great interview!! Agreed 100% of the most of the conversation!
Loved this episode so so so so much!! I could listen to you two talk about these things for hours honestly. Thank you for this!
And sorry I just need to mention, hooray for Jikook you two! 🥺💜💜💜
My bias is JK, wrecker is Jimin 💜💜💜
My bias is Jimin and my wrecker is JK. 🙌
sameee jk biased and jimin wrecker😩🙌
This was awesome!
Haha, our taste is the same Tetris, my bias is jimin & the bias wrecker is jk as well.
I remember that video that got Tetris “cancelled” and just thinking “oh no, my guy! They gonna eat you. “ just because I knew enough to understand what you were trying to say but also fully aware of how some were going to take it. I was so happy when you didn’t let it phase you and kept loving what you love
Thank you for this.
BTS was and still is being disrespected for years!!!
I truly respect BTS for not giving up!!!
Due to Them more Asian musicians are getting a chance. They literally opened the door!
What is sad that BTS deserved to win a Grammy for their album MOTS7 and BE.
Also for the best video film for the song ON/Black Swan art film.
Also the best dance performance for ON and Black Swan.
Life Goes On is also really underestamated!
Yes, the Western (industry) world is truly treated with disrespect and looked down up on.
I haven't watched The Grammy's for years because, it is really all aranged beforehand.
I watched it last year because, of BTS. I truly hoped that they would have least win with DYNAMITE. That song and also RM Suga JHope Jin Jungkook V Jimin everytime different performances made so many people happy during COVID19.
I liked Korean music since Seo Taiji and Boys. Then after that I liked BTS.
I like all Seven Members equaly each for their own unique personality/talent. With one side note. I do respect Jimin for having the shortest training time from all of them.
I've seen Them live just like you did but, in my country The Netherlands. In my country they are also not treating BTS with respect!
I also like Nightwish a Finish Symphonic Metal band. They are so good!! I have seen Them live too. I really don't understand that they never gotten nominated or won....
My wish for each member of BTS and for Them together is; to Stay Healthy and that Their Friendship will last and that Their dreams will come true. They have always been under so much pressure and still are.
Take care and warm greetings from The Netherlands 👍💜🍀💜🍀🤘🇳🇱🌷🤗
Yaaaaas to all.
Thank you guys for doing this. I really enjoyed... 💜 🥰
Love it!! T I'm a Jimin stan too and I'm sooooooooo jealous that you've met him and the boys. My bias wrecker has changed 6 times lol 😆 maybe that says that geez I can't live without them all 7 are just perfect.
Loved this video!!!💜💜💜💜💛💜💛💜💜💛💛💛💛💛💜
🥰🥰😍 totally agree with these two! Love this discussion and I’m 71yrs old 🤪🤪🤪
this was such a genuine interview and I felt this 100% ! you said everything that I wanted to be said and also Why do I have to explain the type of music I like and I often have these convos with people saying oh kpop kpop and I 'm like it's just the same as any other music that the person would like so thank you so much for stressing that out! I have been a kpop stan since SJ with a record of 13 years now!
Amazing interview!
Love this interview! Thank you. 💜💜
I am ARMY to the bones and I am not ashamed, even if I grew just listening to rock and some 90´s pop. I refused to listen to K por because I never liked boy bands but the moment I listened to them I was hooked forever. When you grow older, you just don´t care what other people think about you or your preferences.
