Jimin and Loco aren’t play acting. Jimin really decided on the spur of the moment to have Loco dance with him. If you watch more behind-the-scenes videos, BTS sometimes decides to change things, mostly dance moves, but also clothes (two members switching jackets), vocal runs, etc. They also fool around a lot!
When Jimin was working on FACE, he worked with three producers, and all four of them gave their team the name Smeraldo Garden Marching Band. That's where the name comes from. The song is inspired by the Beatles' Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. When you watch the music video, the three producers are the ones playing the instruments and Jimin is the singer of the band.
The Smeraldo flower is linked to the song The Truth Untold and the HYYH (Most Beautiful Moment in Life) era. Someone else could explain this better I'm sure, but the smeraldo flower apparently comes from an old Italian tale, there's a wealthy man who lives locked away in his house, always wears a mask and never shows his true face to anyone because he thinks he's so ugly (I don't know if he was disfigured or something). Anyway, at some point he see a poor girl from the nearby village sneaking into his garden to steal flowers to sell because she is so poor. At first he is angry, but she keeps coming back and eventually he falls in love with her, but he is too afraid to show himself to her because he thinks he will be rejected. So he decides to create and grow the most beautiful flower in the world and give it to her, hoping that will win her over (the smeraldo flower doesn't actually exist). But before he can do that the girl dies. So The Truth Untold is about being afraid to show your true self because you feel you will be rejected. The Smeraldo Garden Marching Band (Jimin and the guys he worked on his album with started calling themselves that) kind of takes this concept and flips it, where they are out there actively seeking love and showing themselves. In thinking about it now, maybe the Smeraldo flower symbolises the desire to find someone to love. Anyway, if you've read this, not sure it's 100% accurate, but hope it helps.
I just want to add a few details. The Smeraldo flower is fictional. The created flower appears in BTS projects (starting with Truth Untold). It is a part of the Bangtan Universe (BU)--an alternative universe storyline.
Thank you for this reaction! Would love for you to check out WHO by Jimin. He released his album Muse. He also dropped an acoustic version of Who if you wanna hear raw vocals and he also dropped a Jimmy Fallon performance of it. 💜 Jimmy ran into Jimin in the studio while he was in the US recording Who, so Jimmy got to hear the song before it was released. That was months ago. A cute little back story. Jimmy actually filmed a small reaction to it.
The stuff Jimin was saying about Loco persevering and doing well... I think it's because Loco is not a dancer (as far as I know) and it wasn't planned for him to do any dancing, so on the set Jimin spontaneously persuaded him to do a little dance with him at the end. You can see Loco acting sort of abashed about dancing. It's very cute.
20:26 Son(='hand' in Korean) Murie(=head) weerow(=up/above) "손 머리 위로" (=hands above your head) so basically what Jimin said is "Put your hands up" At the end of the shoot when he got the flowers, he said "I'll come back safely" because he was enlisting soon. Thank you for the reaction.
What he sings at 20:39: When the curtains rise and the lights turn on Everyone is in their places Turn up the music I think we're ready now Let's begin one, two Put your hands up (in korean) Smeraldo flower meaning: Smeraldo flower is related to a BTS song "The trouth untold", that is a sad song. It's a complicated backstory. It is also related to Bangtan Universe (BU) , a fictional storyline that follows some of their music videos for a few years- in the end a K-drama was made with that story. According to a press release shared by BigHit Music on January 28, 2024, the theme of the song "Smeraldo Garden Marching Band" (feat. Loco) revolves around confession. Jimin took the motif from the fictional flower Smeraldo from the Bangtan universe, which means "the truth that could not be conveyed." Jimin wanted to express his love for ARMYs through this new song. The song “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band” (feat. Loco) is inspired by the album “Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" by the English rock group The Beatles. It's kind of complicated to explain, but I inserted what the company mentioned, maybe it helps😅
Nathan: Are there behind the scenes you think are worth me checking out? Me: Oh boy, where do I even start. 🤣 Are you ready to jump in the rabbit hole? hahahaha!
The kids later learned about being an idol and one of the kids want to be like Jimin. Jimin is so kind with kids even before. Kids loves jimin. He has a lot of fans that are kids. Everything about this is wholesome. The kid side of jimin. Even loco was shy.
15:08 Smeraldo is a fictional flower that BTS used during their 'The Most Beautiful Moment in Life' album era. Originally, the flower symbolized a sad, untold truth, reflecting the times when we can't express our true feelings or reveal our authentic selves. However, Jimin used the same flower to honestly convey his feelings about losing excitement in his artistry through his album 'Muse.' In a conversation with RM, Jimin explained that 'Muse' is a journey in search of a muse that would reignite his passion.
Since you've only watched music videos you probably haven't seen much to give you a sense of Jimin's personality, but his kindness and humor really shines through in this video. He is really sweet with kids and also I find his laughter incredibly charming!
The 3 BH producers Jimin worked closely with on his FACE & MUSE album made their mv debut here. The guy w the keyboard is PDOGG, - BTS main producer has been w the boys since the beginning & is behind almost all the hits we’ve been heard from them. If u look at the people music credits- he’s listed in almost all of them. If ur able to access Weverse, u should look into the production work behind the FACE album where it shows how BTS -in this case Jimin- worked w them. Thanks for checking this out.
oh funny story about Jimin and P'Dogg while they were doing Jimin's 2 albums Face and Muse and he was staying at P'Dogg's house there's video of jimin on the floor pen in his hand and a book on the floor writing lyric's and he looks up a P'Dogg and says 'is it alright I say this' referring to his lyric P'Dogg's down and say 'of course' then give's Jimin a quick side glance as if he's thinking 'why is he asking me if what he can put in his own song's lyrics?'. Also there's other footage of Jimin who seems to walk around in circles a lot, stops every now and then to play on a key or write something. one of those things he did on one of the keyboard ended up as track 1 Intro of his Muse Album. Jimin said PDogg heard and said play it again then said you should use that for the intro. That's how they work the two of them. Jimin and RM were discussing it and RM comment was 'oh like a song camp, a year long song camp.' I thought it was a lovely little story of how they work together.
Jimin was truly the leader of the video. The concept was his and yes he added to locco dance off the cuff. All the band members are producers and they named their band. That’s where the name came from! Great to see how it all came together. Also the wonderful way Jimin made everyone comfortable and important. He’s a gem
What you say in the intro is why I watch your reactions and respect your voice as a producer: you ARE interested in music from around the world. Your open-minded approach is so positive. I think this is a door that BTS has opened for many of us in the US, and it's so refreshing. There is new music being created every day in every country, we just didn't have as much access to it in previous decades. Beautiful melodies and amazing beats can be mixed together with lyrics in any language, and each language has its own poetry and way of expression.
Hi Nathan! I'm not sure if you've realized that on the music video Jimin and Loco are singing live and that's why they have the in-ears and the mics haha so it's a live performance! I'm sure you'll get to hear more of the track and producing style that you like to analyze on Spotify 💜
The song was inspired by the Beatles song, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It inspired the sound/tone and I think also the visuals of the music video. Smeraldo Garden Marching Band is the group name they created for Jimin's bandcamp, which were the core writing and producing team on his first album FACE and his latest album MUSE. They're the guys playing the instruments at the start of the video. From what Jimin has explained, this song was kind of just them messing around and celebrating the fact that they finished the album FACE, which was darker in nature and required heavier emotional labor. It was meant to sound bright and celebratory to reflect their emotional state at the time.
The song is named for the group of producers/musicians seen near the beginning who jokingly called themselves that. They worked with Jimin on Face and Muse. Smeraldo was the name they gave to the mythical flower from the song The Truth Untold?. The name was also inspired by Seargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
BTS have lots of behind the scenes plus they kind have friendly conversations/interview each other over food about each other's solo projects they are always interesting. They are often very open about their work the process and thinking, feeling, struggles and how their work feels once it's done. Like Jimin saying that after he finished FACE album he can now look back to the covid period and think why was I like that back then? Their work is often theraputic in nature. As they do write about what they are going through.
Another great series to watch is MiniMoni Album reviews. It's Jimin and RM talking about their latest albums Muse and Right Place, Wrong Person. Some of your questions can be answered there. Suga's interview show Suchwita is great too. He talked to each of the members when their albums came out. It's all on BangtanTV if you're interested.
Jimin has a new single from his album MUSE. Smeraldo Marching Band is part of that album. The new single is called, WHO. He also did a live performance both got uplaoded at The Tonight Jimmy Fallon Show and BTS channel. It would be great if you could react to MV and the live performance.
I love the way he tells the kids what to do differently. He’s so gentle and it doesn’t sound like criticism at all. He just so easily tells one boy it would be nice if he smiles more and they can all play around more. I feel like a monster lol
❣It’s Jimin’s altered voice doing the intro, as the announcer. Also Jimin & Loco sing live, aside from using mics, even wearing ear-ins. The “backup band” consists of legendary, genius producer Pdogg, who worked with BTS since beginning as producer & songwriter, also producers GHSTLOOP and EVAN, all 3 also worked alongside with Jimin, who also wrote the lyrics, composed, & helped produce his first solo album, 2023’s FACE, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart, as well as for MUSE his 2nd album that was released July 19. And now is breaking records, making history continually! During the documentary for FACE, there was even a fun quiz segment where all 4 named themselves Smeraldo Garden Marching Band, which at the time, no one had any idea other then it was just for fun! 🙏😅🤣😍
If you want more insight into the process behind the album and some of the intended meanings, I recommend watching the MMM about it. It's Jimin sitting down with RM letting him listen to the full album and talking about it. There's also the same thing but for RM's RPWP album.
Smeraldo is an imaginary flower that was first used in the BTS (vocal line) song The Truth Untold, so Jimin using that flower again basically signifies that he is also using the idea of untold truths for this album.
I’ll confess to you that I have avoided some of RM videos where he does full analysis. He doesn’t go over my head; that’s what people might assume about people who don’t listen to his explanations. It’s that he goes on and on. I start to be reminded of myself and how I try to share so much of what I think and people just are blank in return. They have nothing to say. Then I don’t have friends. The more I have to say, the fewer friends I have. So I call my sister. She has a lot to say. lol Anyway I’ll give these a try. I’m sure they are good. If it feels too long, no one is making me continue. I was familiar with the flower. Yay. I’m somewhat on track. You are helpful. Thank you.
@@Sunset553 I can see why that might be an issue sometimes with RM, but I didn't feel like these dragged on too much actually! They're less on the explaining side and more on the two dudes being wholesomely hyped about each other's music side haha. I can have the same issue lol, once I get started on a hyperfixation/special interest I will ramble on no matter how well the other person is still listening.
@@PinkFluffy1Corn ok it’s good but I’m halfway and trying to do something else while listening to, but I don’t understand Korean. (I’m taking lessons). I will probably finish later. Thanks. I didn’t even see this posted
Jimin has a new album Muse. There’s a bangtantv video for the highlight medley of the songs. On that highlight reel you’ll see the list of producers for each song including pdogg, ghstloop, Evan, Tommy brown, Ryan Tedder and Jon Bellion among others. The prerelease single is smeraldo garden marching band -a name jimin came up with for his main producers from face and muse album. Pdogg is one of those producers (pdogg has produced for bts since their debut so he’s like the 8th member of bts) Who is the main track for Muse. The other songs are Rebirth, interlude, slow dance and Be mine, and closer than this.
✨This is one of the most enjoyable but yet also so informative behind the scenes I’ve seen! It shows once again, just like with everything else Jimin does, including his other MV’s just how hands on, just how much involved Jimin was! Including the concept, imagery, vision, the look he had for the MV! Plus all the ideas he had that he put into play! Like coming up with the idea, last minute for Loco to join in at the end! 😅 All the while keeping everything as lighthearted, fun & enjoyable! Like the way he handled this kids, making them feel important by telling them so, plus the way he directed them, was also I’m sure making them feel less pressured! Jimin even oversaw the filming to make sure the final shoot would meet with his approval! Jimin keeps amazing me more & more, though I shouldn’t be surprised anymore! I mean Jimin writes the lyrics composes melody, involved with producing, then is even hands on, on every level during filming! .👍🙏❤🔥😍🌟💫✨
Nathan, I really hope you get to work with Jimin one day. It's so nice to see you reacting to a different type of video for a change. 😄 Tommy worked with Jimin on 2 songs on Jimin's new album, MUSE (Rebirth and Smeraldo Garden Marching Band). Smeraldo Garden Marching Band is a name Jimin used to refer to their team of 4 (Jimin, and the 3 producers he worked with for FACE and MUSE - Pdogg, Ghstloop and Evan). I hope you can react to Who (the title track), the album, and Jimin's performance on Jimmy Fallon. I'd really love to see your reaction to those as well. Thank you! ❣
I’m watching you, watching them, watching theirselves 😅😂😂. I loved how you stopped and googles etc. Next, ‘Who’ - Jimin did amazing. Oh man there are so many backstories to go through!
The Smerlado Garden Marching Band is probably Jimin's way of going back to the story behind their song "Truth Untold" where a wealthy man owned a Smerlado Garden. He fell in love with the woman who was picking flowers on his garden but he was never able to confess his feelings because he felt ugly. So he would always hide himself. He waited everyday to see the woman until she never came back because the woman had died. The owner of the garden felt very sad and regretted that he was not able to tell how he really felt. Jimin often told about feeling sorry to Army because they cannot say everything all the time, how he really felt about Army and what is truly happening. So I guess this is his own way of saying that he will not hesitate to show his true self and true feelings anymore to Army. Thanks you for reacting! You better react next to Who because it's phenomenal!!! and yes, the guitarist is the main producer of Face and Muse (Jimin's albums) He is Pdogg and he has been working with BTS from the start.
Jimin and RM chat about this album and videos in the Mini-Moni mv. Interesting, about the writing and producing. The small band in the beginning is the in-house producers Jimin worked with so much, and that is the name they gave their small band.
The part at the end, he's saying "손 머리 외로" (sohn meo-ree wee-roh). It means "put your hand up" or more literally "hands above your head". Honestly pretty much all BTS Music Videos have a Behind the Scenes Footage that they release a few weeks after the main video drops. Pretty much any MV you see, if you're curious about the behind you can usually find it on the BangtanTV channel.
I’m glad you watched. All your questions are great! Indeed, BTS members frequently put new things into their performances on the fly, all the time.sometimes, if not most times, they don’t see the set until they walk on. Keep asking questions. We want to engage with them.
Literally all the behind the scenes are worth watching, like every single one. Also for Smeraldo Garden Marching Band i've seen several people in the comments explain it in both video's so i'm levaing it with them. Have a good one.
Hello Nathan! I'm happy you're expanding and exploring new content! About the echo in the room... Jimin and Loco are both wearing their in ears so that natural reverb is not a problem. In the performance video you can clearly hear Jimin's live vocals over the backing track 😉 Original studio version sounds slightly different. See you in the next BTS reaction! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
They have behind the scenes for all music videos and also for big performances. They also have many separate videos where they talk about their music. So maybe from now on for every music video you watch that makes you curious, you can watch the "making of"/ behind the scenes. One that comes to mind now, since I just heard your outro of "Fake love", is the making of for Fake love, where we discovered a lot of what was happening there was real and not CGI.
If you watch close, especially when they are monitoring and tgey have them out and around their necks you can see that both Jimin and Loco have in ears on so they can't hear the room just the track.
Smeraldo Garden Marching Band is what Jimin,Evan,pdogg and Ghstloop named their team while working on Face. They are in company producers and are the ones shown at the beginning of the mv.
Thank you for your reaction. It's so fun to hear your insights on things I wouldn't have even questioned, and I love seeing you genuinely appreciate an amazing artist like I do. 🥰 Btw, my first language is Korean. The way Jimin talks is so gentle, affectionate, and playful. I love his personality as much as his artistry.
I think community is exactly the word. It is nice to share the content together. There are so many behind the scenes. Fake Love's is great and so is Blood Sweat and Tears. Also ON There is also little mini docs with Chris Martin of ColdPlay and about the Making of ON with the marching band and choir etc that are great. I can't remember if you watched the Chris Martin one already. But I would recommend them all. You see BTS be goofy, see how much work there is in the production (I think you already know that!). Thanks as always.
While Jimin is watching the monitor then talking he has both his ear pieces out of his ears and hanging down his white shirt and his in ear pieces are also white.
you were wondering why hes not getting hit by the bounce.. he is wearing in-ears, but they covered it with his hair. you can see every now and then on the video when he pulls it out
Someone else did a great job of explaining the smeraldo so I'll leave that to them. Also in the end, they were telling him good luck and he said he will come back safely as he was going to enlist soon after. Thanks for reacting to this. I'm glad your questions got answered lol
I heard that the look of the video and title (other than Smeraldo) is a nod to Sargent Pepper Lonely Hesrts Club Band which Jimin discovered and bought the vinyl in the US.
I love how warm and kind hearted he is.He is just so sweet and friendly.He makes everyone on set feel so special and important especially the kids. It’s so funny how he manages to get Loco to actually dance with him at the end.😊💜I think you should check out the band The Hu their song Wolf Totem! They are a band from Mongolia.
Smeraldo is a fictional flower that in the song "The Truth Untold" it tells a story of a man who hides in his castle because he is ugly but a young woman comes and takes flowers from his garden. He falls in love with her but never reveled himself to her because he is afraid. He creates a new flower for her a Smeraldo flower but she never gets to see it as she never comes again to his garden. He finds out she died. That is what the BTS vocal line song "The Truth Untold" is about and Jimin remembered that story and that flower made for the woman the man loved inspired the name of this song.
Not you flailing around on Tommy's insta page looking for his post and his latest post right there in bright green top left is "Jimin" from his Muse album cover screaming at you 😆
Also want to add that Jimin new video “Who” has been released and you should react to it. It’s such a good song and his vocals are so good from his new album “Muse”
It would seem very interesting to me that since you did a cover of Fake Love we could together see the behind the scenes of that MV that is iconic in the BTS discography.💜
Jimin and Loco aren’t play acting. Jimin really decided on the spur of the moment to have Loco dance with him. If you watch more behind-the-scenes videos, BTS sometimes decides to change things, mostly dance moves, but also clothes (two members switching jackets), vocal runs, etc. They also fool around a lot!

plus the BU for Smeraldo which is the made up blue flower for one of BTS songs 'The Truth Untold'
The Smeraldo flower is linked to the song The Truth Untold and the HYYH (Most Beautiful Moment in Life) era. Someone else could explain this better I'm sure, but the smeraldo flower apparently comes from an old Italian tale, there's a wealthy man who lives locked away in his house, always wears a mask and never shows his true face to anyone because he thinks he's so ugly (I don't know if he was disfigured or something).

But before he can do that the girl dies.
So The Truth Untold is about being afraid to show your true self because you feel you will be rejected.
The Smeraldo Garden Marching Band (Jimin and the guys he worked on his album with started calling themselves that) kind of takes this concept and flips it, where they are out there actively seeking love and showing themselves. In thinking about it now, maybe the Smeraldo flower symbolises the desire to find someone to love.
Anyway, if you've read this, not sure it's 100% accurate, but hope it helps.
HYYH 10th anniversary in 280 days! 🎉
You summed it up beautifully.
I just want to add a few details.
The Smeraldo flower is fictional. The created flower appears in BTS projects (starting with Truth Untold). It is a part of the Bangtan Universe (BU)--an alternative universe storyline.
Thank you for this reaction! Would love for you to check out WHO by Jimin. He released his album Muse.

Jimin is so warm and humble he always make everyone around him feel happy and comfortable
You should see set me free pt2 behind the scene it's amazing
The stuff Jimin was saying about Loco persevering and doing well...

20:26 Son(='hand' in Korean) Murie(=head) weerow(=up/above) "손 머리 위로" (=hands above your head) so basically what Jimin said is "Put your hands up" At the end of the shoot when he got the flowers, he said "I'll come back safely" because he was enlisting soon. Thank you for the reaction.
What he sings at 20:39:
When the curtains rise and the lights turn on
Everyone is in their places
Turn up the music
I think we're ready now
Let's begin one, two
Put your hands up (in korean)
Smeraldo flower meaning:

It's kind of complicated to explain, but I inserted what the company mentioned, maybe it helps😅
He said, "손머리 위로.".
It means 'put your hands up.'😅😅
Yes, your question at 20:40, this is the answer 🙂
Nathan: Are there behind the scenes you think are worth me checking out?
Me: Oh boy, where do I even start. 🤣
Are you ready to jump in the rabbit hole? hahahaha!
😂😂😂😂
Waiting for your reaction to Jimin's Who. And the whole album too. 😊
The kids later learned about being an idol and one of the kids want to be like Jimin. Jimin is so kind with kids even before. Kids loves jimin. He has a lot of fans that are kids. Everything about this is wholesome. The kid side of jimin. Even loco was shy.

And live Performance on jimmy fallon
Since you've only watched music videos you probably haven't seen much to give you a sense of Jimin's personality, but his kindness and humor really shines through in this video. He is really sweet with kids and also I find his laughter incredibly charming!
I've been waiting for your reaction to Jimin's new album, Muse.

oh funny story about Jimin and P'Dogg while they were doing Jimin's 2 albums Face and Muse and he was staying at P'Dogg's house there's video of jimin on the floor pen in his hand and a book on the floor writing lyric's and he looks up a P'Dogg and says 'is it alright I say this' referring to his lyric P'Dogg's down and say 'of course' then give's Jimin a quick side glance as if he's thinking 'why is he asking me if what he can put in his own song's lyrics?'.

waiting for your reaction to jimin Who MV and live performance on Jimmy Fallon
Jimin was truly the leader of the video. The concept was his and yes he added to locco dance off the cuff. All the band members are producers and they named their band. That’s where the name came from! Great to see how it all came together. Also the wonderful way Jimin made everyone comfortable and important. He’s a gem
Please react to jimin's new song Who. Its the title track of his new album Muse.
Oh Behind the scenes of jimin's dance in black swan is amazing. jimin is an art
Oh and also Behind the scenes of jimin's set me free pt2 mv. ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
What you say in the intro is why I watch your reactions and respect your voice as a producer: you ARE interested in music from around the world. Your open-minded approach is so positive. I think this is a door that BTS has opened for many of us in the US, and it's so refreshing. There is new music being created every day in every country, we just didn't have as much access to it in previous decades. Beautiful melodies and amazing beats can be mixed together with lyrics in any language, and each language has its own poetry and way of expression.
Hi Nathan! I'm not sure if you've realized that on the music video Jimin and Loco are singing live and that's why they have the in-ears and the mics haha so it's a live performance! I'm sure you'll get to hear more of the track and producing style that you like to analyze on Spotify 💜
Waiting for your reaction "WHO" by jimin
Loco was a trainee at Big Hit when BTS was going to be a hip hop group. So he is a friend of the rap line.
The song was inspired by the Beatles song, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It inspired the sound/tone and I think also the visuals of the music video. Smeraldo Garden Marching Band is the group name they created for Jimin's bandcamp, which were the core writing and producing team on his first album FACE and his latest album MUSE. They're the guys playing the instruments at the start of the video. From what Jimin has explained, this song was kind of just them messing around and celebrating the fact that they finished the album FACE, which was darker in nature and required heavier emotional labor. It was meant to sound bright and celebratory to reflect their emotional state at the time.
The song is named for the group of producers/musicians seen near the beginning who jokingly called themselves that. They worked with Jimin on Face and Muse.
Smeraldo was the name they gave to the mythical flower from the song The Truth Untold?. The name was also inspired by Seargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
BTS have lots of behind the scenes plus they kind have friendly conversations/interview each other over food about each other's solo projects they are always interesting. They are often very open about their work the process and thinking, feeling, struggles and how their work feels once it's done. Like Jimin saying that after he finished FACE album he can now look back to the covid period and think why was I like that back then? Their work is often theraputic in nature. As they do write about what they are going through.
BTS behind the scenes are interesting & fun. We also get to see their personalities and overall before informative. Thanks for reacting to this!
I saw somewhere that one of the kids decided to be an idol after meeting Jimin. 💜🇧🇷💜🇧🇷
Another great series to watch is MiniMoni Album reviews. It's Jimin and RM talking about their latest albums Muse and Right Place, Wrong Person. Some of your questions can be answered there. Suga's interview show Suchwita is great too. He talked to each of the members when their albums came out.
It's all on BangtanTV if you're interested.
Jimin has a new single from his album MUSE. Smeraldo Marching Band is part of that album. The new single is called, WHO. He also did a live performance both got uplaoded at The Tonight Jimmy Fallon Show and BTS channel. It would be great if you could react to MV and the live performance.
Jimin is the kindest , sweetest and cutest human being in this universe. Or maybe he is an angel?
Silver Army from Brazil 🇧🇷💜🇧🇷💜🇧🇷💜🇧🇷💜
22:10 a realization moment "I'm watching them watch them self.... AND You are watching me watching them watching them self" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love the way he tells the kids what to do differently. He’s so gentle and it doesn’t sound like criticism at all. He just so easily tells one boy it would be nice if he smiles more and they can all play around more. I feel like a monster lol
❣It’s Jimin’s altered voice doing the intro, as the announcer. Also Jimin & Loco sing live, aside from using mics, even wearing ear-ins. The “backup band” consists of legendary, genius producer Pdogg, who worked with BTS since beginning as producer & songwriter, also producers GHSTLOOP and EVAN, all 3 also worked alongside with Jimin, who also wrote the lyrics, composed, & helped produce his first solo album, 2023’s FACE, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart, as well as for MUSE his 2nd album that was released July 19. And now is breaking records, making history continually! During the documentary for FACE, there was even a fun quiz segment where all 4 named themselves Smeraldo Garden Marching Band, which at the time, no one had any idea other then it was just for fun! 🙏😅🤣😍
If you want more insight into the process behind the album and some of the intended meanings, I recommend watching the MMM about it. It's Jimin sitting down with RM letting him listen to the full album and talking about it. There's also the same thing but for RM's RPWP album.
Smeraldo is an imaginary flower that was first used in the BTS (vocal line) song The Truth Untold, so Jimin using that flower again basically signifies that he is also using the idea of untold truths for this album.
I’ll confess to you that I have avoided some of RM videos where he does full analysis. He doesn’t go over my head; that’s what people might assume about people who don’t listen to his explanations. It’s that he goes on and on. I start to be reminded of myself and how I try to share so much of what I think and people just are blank in return. They have nothing to say. Then I don’t have friends.
The more I have to say, the fewer friends I have. So I call my sister. She has a lot to say. lol
Anyway I’ll give these a try. I’m sure they are good. If it feels too long, no one is making me continue.
I was familiar with the flower. Yay. I’m somewhat on track. You are helpful. Thank you.
@@Sunset553 I can see why that might be an issue sometimes with RM, but I didn't feel like these dragged on too much actually! They're less on the explaining side and more on the two dudes being wholesomely hyped about each other's music side haha.
I can have the same issue lol, once I get started on a hyperfixation/special interest I will ramble on no matter how well the other person is still listening.
@@PinkFluffy1Corn 💟 💜
@@PinkFluffy1Corn ok it’s good but I’m halfway and trying to do something else while listening to, but I don’t understand Korean. (I’m taking lessons). I will probably finish later. Thanks. I didn’t even see this posted
Smeraldo flower is from the Bangtan Universe, BU. It is originally part of a sad song and used in other scenes, but here he has turned it to joy.
스메랄도는 bts의 BU에 나오는 꽃이고 꽃말은 "전하지 못한 진심 "이에요
Jimin has a new album Muse. There’s a bangtantv video for the highlight medley of the songs. On that highlight reel you’ll see the list of producers for each song including pdogg, ghstloop, Evan, Tommy brown, Ryan Tedder and Jon Bellion among others. The prerelease single is smeraldo garden marching band -a name jimin came up with for his main producers from face and muse album. Pdogg is one of those producers (pdogg has produced for bts since their debut so he’s like the 8th member of bts)
Who is the main track for Muse.
The other songs are Rebirth, interlude, slow dance and Be mine, and closer than this.
✨This is one of the most enjoyable but yet also so informative behind the scenes I’ve seen! It shows once again, just like with everything else Jimin does, including his other MV’s just how hands on, just how much involved Jimin was! Including the concept, imagery, vision, the look he had for the MV! Plus all the ideas he had that he put into play! Like coming up with the idea, last minute for Loco to join in at the end! 😅 All the while keeping everything as lighthearted, fun & enjoyable! Like the way he handled this kids, making them feel important by telling them so, plus the way he directed them, was also I’m sure making them feel less pressured! Jimin even oversaw the filming to make sure the final shoot would meet with his approval! Jimin keeps amazing me more & more, though I shouldn’t be surprised anymore! I mean Jimin writes the lyrics composes melody, involved with producing, then is even hands on, on every level during filming! .👍🙏❤🔥😍🌟💫✨
Nathan, I really hope you get to work with Jimin one day. It's so nice to see you reacting to a different type of video for a change. 😄 Tommy worked with Jimin on 2 songs on Jimin's new album, MUSE (Rebirth and Smeraldo Garden Marching Band). Smeraldo Garden Marching Band is a name Jimin used to refer to their team of 4 (Jimin, and the 3 producers he worked with for FACE and MUSE - Pdogg, Ghstloop and Evan). I hope you can react to Who (the title track), the album, and Jimin's performance on Jimmy Fallon. I'd really love to see your reaction to those as well. Thank you! ❣
Love your reactions! Thanks for being here for us 💜
I’m watching you, watching them, watching theirselves 😅😂😂. I loved how you stopped and googles etc. Next, ‘Who’ - Jimin did amazing. Oh man there are so many backstories to go through!
Watching the behind of the scenes of their work helps you discover a lot about their hard work and personality
The Smerlado Garden Marching Band is probably Jimin's way of going back to the story behind their song "Truth Untold" where a wealthy man owned a Smerlado Garden. He fell in love with the woman who was picking flowers on his garden but he was never able to confess his feelings because he felt ugly. So he would always hide himself. He waited everyday to see the woman until she never came back because the woman had died. The owner of the garden felt very sad and regretted that he was not able to tell how he really felt. Jimin often told about feeling sorry to Army because they cannot say everything all the time, how he really felt about Army and what is truly happening. So I guess this is his own way of saying that he will not hesitate to show his true self and true feelings anymore to Army. Thanks you for reacting! You better react next to Who because it's phenomenal!!! and yes, the guitarist is the main producer of Face and Muse (Jimin's albums) He is Pdogg and he has been working with BTS from the start.
Jimin is known for one more time!
He does three taps at the end to say I love you!
LOVE in sign language!
Thank you~당신의 리엑션을 기다리고 잇엇어요 😍
Jimin “ who “next pls
I love you for this... You need to react to Jimin at Jimmy Fellon Tonight ;)
Jimin and RM chat about this album and videos in the Mini-Moni mv. Interesting, about the writing and producing. The small band in the beginning is the in-house producers Jimin worked with so much, and that is the name they gave their small band.
The part at the end, he's saying "손 머리 외로" (sohn meo-ree wee-roh). It means "put your hand up" or more literally "hands above your head".
Honestly pretty much all BTS Music Videos have a Behind the Scenes Footage that they release a few weeks after the main video drops. Pretty much any MV you see, if you're curious about the behind you can usually find it on the BangtanTV channel.
I’m glad you watched. All your questions are great! Indeed, BTS members frequently put new things into their performances on the fly, all the time.sometimes, if not most times, they don’t see the set until they walk on. Keep asking questions. We want to engage with them.
Literally all the behind the scenes are worth watching, like every single one.
Also for Smeraldo Garden Marching Band i've seen several people in the comments explain it in both video's so i'm levaing it with them.
Have a good one.
Hello Nathan! I'm happy you're expanding and exploring new content!
About the echo in the room... Jimin and Loco are both wearing their in ears so that natural reverb is not a problem. In the performance video you can clearly hear Jimin's live vocals over the backing track 😉 Original studio version sounds slightly different.
See you in the next BTS reaction!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
jimin is a main pop boy
our angel jimini
Pls react muse full album plssss
It was the first video in his instagram when you pulled up his profile. The one with Jimin's Muse thumbnail.
Please react also to the jimin MUSE album nathan.
Yes, I loved your rendition of fake love 😊
Jimin is doing amazingly on the charts with Muse.
U should check out Jimin’s new MV fir his song “ Who” it is so good!!!
They have behind the scenes for all music videos and also for big performances. They also have many separate videos where they talk about their music.
So maybe from now on for every music video you watch that makes you curious, you can watch the "making of"/ behind the scenes.
One that comes to mind now, since I just heard your outro of "Fake love", is the making of for Fake love, where we discovered a lot of what was happening there was real and not CGI.
If you watch close, especially when they are monitoring and tgey have them out and around their necks you can see that both Jimin and Loco have in ears on so they can't hear the room just the track.
Smeraldo Garden Marching Band is what Jimin,Evan,pdogg and Ghstloop named their team while working on Face. They are in company producers and are the ones shown at the beginning of the mv.
They have behind the scenes for most if not all of their mvs and other performances on shows 😊💜
CANT WAIT FOR YOUR REACTION TO "WHO". I KNOW YOU'RE ALSO EXCITED MR. WALTERS...HEHE💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thank you for your reaction. It's so fun to hear your insights on things I wouldn't have even questioned, and I love seeing you genuinely appreciate an amazing artist like I do. 🥰
Btw, my first language is Korean. The way Jimin talks is so gentle, affectionate, and playful. I love his personality as much as his artistry.
I think community is exactly the word. It is nice to share the content together. There are so many behind the scenes. Fake Love's is great and so is Blood Sweat and Tears. Also ON There is also little mini docs with Chris Martin of ColdPlay and about the Making of ON with the marching band and choir etc that are great. I can't remember if you watched the Chris Martin one already. But I would recommend them all. You see BTS be goofy, see how much work there is in the production (I think you already know that!). Thanks as always.
Thanks ❤
Please listen WHO by Jimin, you will find the great of Jimin there... 🎉
While Jimin is watching the monitor then talking he has both his ear pieces out of his ears and hanging down his white shirt and his in ear pieces are also white.
you were wondering why hes not getting hit by the bounce.. he is wearing in-ears, but they covered it with his hair. you can see every now and then on the video when he pulls it out
I like the making of video for "Save Me". The weather was cold & rainy that day but the boys kept going. I think you would like it.
SGMB is a nickname for the producers I think.
there is a behind the scenes for "Who" as well! And w whole documentary how they produced the Albums
Thanks Nathan. I’m excited to see your reaction to Jimins new song “Who”. The MV is awesome. Have a great day! 💜💜
if you want behind the scenes, fake love behind the scene is insane. it's a must watch if you want mv making bts. ahhaha 💜💜💜
Someone else did a great job of explaining the smeraldo so I'll leave that to them. Also in the end, they were telling him good luck and he said he will come back safely as he was going to enlist soon after. Thanks for reacting to this. I'm glad your questions got answered lol
The man in the band is P Dogg t who produces most of Jiminssongs and most of BTS songs as well been with them for years
I heard that the look of the video and title (other than Smeraldo) is a nod to Sargent Pepper Lonely Hesrts Club Band which Jimin discovered and bought the vinyl in the US.
I'm watching you nathan😊
I really enjoy your reaction of Jimin💜💜💜
We need more behind the scenes! Thank you for this reaction, he is so humble and beautiful human being ❤
Love jimin
Jimin is always so sweet, always very kind to others, but the other BTS members say that when he’s angry, he’s the scariest of all, also Hoseok
Seriously?
Who!💜
Jimin❤Loco
I love how warm and kind hearted he is.He is just so sweet and friendly.He makes everyone on set feel so special and important especially the kids. It’s so funny how he manages to get Loco to actually dance with him at the end.😊💜I think you should check out the band The Hu their song Wolf Totem! They are a band from Mongolia.
Love that you reacted to the shooting sketch! 😆💜
Nathan…I can’t wait for you to react to WHO! Always loved your reactions to Jimin 💛
Loco is a Rapper not a dancer and was nervous about Jimin getting him to do that little dance with him.
Smeraldo is a fictional flower that in the song "The Truth Untold" it tells a story of a man who hides in his castle because he is ugly but a young woman comes and takes flowers from his garden. He falls in love with her but never reveled himself to her because he is afraid. He creates a new flower for her a Smeraldo flower but she never gets to see it as she never comes again to his garden. He finds out she died. That is what the BTS vocal line song "The Truth Untold" is about and Jimin remembered that story and that flower made for the woman the man loved inspired the name of this song.
Hi Nathan! Hope you'll do a reaction on Jimin's new single Who
💜💜💜Love it💜💜💜Gonna be waiting on that cover 💜💜💜
You need to react to jimins - who and to the live performance
I was waiting for your Who and the full Mise album reaction and this dropped lol Nathan, why are you still at SGMB era? The full album is out 😂
Not you flailing around on Tommy's insta page looking for his post and his latest post right there in bright green top left is "Jimin" from his Muse album cover screaming at you 😆
Also want to add that Jimin new video “Who” has been released and you should react to it. It’s such a good song and his vocals are so good from his new album “Muse”
It would seem very interesting to me that since you did a cover of Fake Love we could together see the behind the scenes of that MV that is iconic in the BTS discography.💜
Smeraldo is the name of fictional flower BTS made during their hyyh era(one of their music period)
BTS has a lot of behind the scenes footage of their videos 💜💜💜
