RM let us know about themes that are spread across groups of three albums and made us excited for more BTS reaction videos. This reaction did highlight information we already knew about BTS, but sometimes, it’s great to hear information we already knew and reminders for information we had forgotten! We are ready for our first COMEBACK! Who else is ready? 👇🏾COMMENT BELOW👇🏾
I know most ARMY like you to follow a whole album or genre but prefer going by most requested like going from top 3 requested from previous week, then adding a new group/artist to get a good taste of K-pop in your playlist. Hopefully, you will also have a throw back playlist for older or disbanded groups/artist like K. Will, B.A.P, Girls Generation, or VIXX.
Counting the hours 😅 this album is actually the first which they completely wrote alone and the first track of the album 'Life goes on' member Jungkook is directing even. Very excited 😱 also for you guys as your first comeback as ARMYS 💪💪🏿
Cardi B was not talking down on them. She was telling them she understood how hard it is since her parents came to the US without speaking English and they are doing it and are loved for it. She tweets out to them all the time and so does Offset. She was speaking to them in awe. So please don't downplay Cardi's excitement. This was only a clip of an interview.
I was there at Wembley when we surprised them and it was truly a moment that you cant really explain the feeling of because it feels so tender to get that moment with people who all care for eachother and treat eachother as family.💜💜💜
I think they need to react to more of the songs first, at least the songs they perform at MMA 2019.....except Dionysus....their performance of Dionysus at the MMA’s is truly epic and not having heard the song prior would make it even more impactful. I too am always anxious to see a reaction to MMA 2019 as it is beyond imagination but I think it’s helpful when the reactor can recognize at least some of the songs being performed to get the most out of the experience.
@@BadaLeeTheSea oh believe me I know what you mean.....it is very exciting to watch people’s minds get blown by the sheer talent of BTS so it never disappoints lol!
Jungkook and Jimin are particularly expressive in their faces, as you can see they will tear up faster than others. There's several videos with them at awards like that Grammy clip and Jungkook is really living for each moment at these awards. He's like 😁😁😁.
They seem to pretty much ignore jungkook and rarely say anything positive about him… they do jimin a little bit.. but they def don’t seem very ot7. I like most of the reactions but seeing how crazily lopsided the videos are is kinda shocking. I’ve never seen ppl make videos and choose like 3-4 members to 10+ videos for and just ignore the rest… like jk crying at the Grammys out of happiness and with the song is just a beautiful example of how pure and appreciative of the experience that he’s bursting with tears with that huge bunny smile. I’ve never seen someone see that and then see how hard he and jimin are crying with young forever and have no reaction at all to it. Watching them ignore certain members is so disappointing. Army loves and supports them all… that’s all there is to it
@@blarmy827 you might be right but oh well it’s seems they’ve both stopped posting any videos and it doesn’t seem like they are going to start again. But I do know that Chalfant before he quit uploading on his other channel was reacting to members in order of their birthday so he didn’t get to JK yet because September is still a while away. A shame because I wanted him to get into Jungkooks music much sooner because His music is treat to listen to. But yeah dead channels at this point.
Crash Course 2020 is my fave because of the last scene. But you really need to see them try to sing Mikrokosmos while they were still crying to get all the feels from that day.
I'm always fascinated with the whole concept of "listening to music that's not in one's language". I remember singing songs in completely broken English (or what sounded like it
Same, I think the only people to truly experience the whole “this is not in my language/ isn’t my culture/ etc, how unusual” are English speakers, because in the rest of the world _their_ culture and language is so prevalent.
I agree... In India, our artists sing in other languages all the time, even if they don't necessarily speak it. We are used to listening to music of every genre, language all the time, incl English. So, it's fascinating to me when I hear native English speaking population realizing that it's absolutely ok to listen to music from another country, even if you don't speak or understand the language. This is the only way we'll truly become a globalized world.
This BE album is mostly about this covid -19 condition. some theories are also there (which we will come to know after album release) but this album will be the most special one because each member has contributed not only in writing music and producing it but also deciding , directing , concept , outfit and most of the thing . It's like thier own made album (in terms of all the things needed to make an album ) that's why this album is close to them and so as for Army ..so we wanna break more and more records and make it memorable one ❤️ Bighit is really great company to allow them because in other companies in Korea , artist hardly have liberty like this .😅
One of the funniest things I've ever heard a reactor say, only a couple months into BTS content, was "I think I've seen most of their MVs". Just remembered that moment. 😅
FYI For comebacks, its helpful if reactors wait until after the first 24 hours to post their reactions. This allows all the attention to go to streaming.
Be album is a stand alone or maybe a start of something newI hope you guys record your reaction to mv and then your reaction listening to the whole album in like a two parter. You guys are ARMY and BTS made BE for you so please dont wait to listen! 💜💜
I also think that BE is not part of an existing series, but possibly new start. Interesting to hear you expect MOTS to continue. For me mots7 felt like the final of the series... Not all their series come in 3s. Either way I really hope they drop another studio length album before they start on solo activities or do a hiatus due to the military. It's selfish I know, they don't have to, but I'd just looove another full length album after BE. 🙏🙏🙏❤
The mots series is actually over since they covered all 3 concepts that karl jung introduced persona, shadow, ego. BE is a stand alone album just for us
You have an excellent point but i also feel like there were lots of hints about a shadow album to complete the concept. And on z side note if they were working on shadow that means it was pushed back and thry have a whole album that can be released potentially just before or after military service starts. With Jins dekay they maybe even beable to have two albums in the pipeline to release during that time.
For some strange reason people seem to think they have to label things and put them in boxes whereas in reality nothing is so cut and dried and the proof of this is BTS themselves, multi genre , multi talented and completely different personalities. Yet they came together and worked together to make the best group Ive heard in my lifetime (im old BTW) and they are constantly growing and changing. Plus you can enjoy them just on the surface lvl by liking the beat the choreo etc but there are so many layers to their music. They use so many references to literature and art in their music and MVs. They do a very good and subtle job on teaching ARMY and also make them want to search for answers to the underlying things.
Don't stress. There's no "right way" to get into this ARMY life. BE is very much a gift from BTS to us for making it through this crazy difficult year. Because of that, I think it'd be a perfect place for you both to start if you want to. But, again, do things how you want, we'll still watch!
Dolly Parton saw the clip of JK in tears during her song and suggested on a couple occasions she'd be open to a collaboration. It is my dearest wish. 😄 There was a ridiculously young and ignorant response from some ARMYs that she was a clout chaser. I was like - Dude. It's Dolly Parton. *She is* walking, breathing clout. Tangent: did you know she contributed heavily to the development of a COVID-19 vaccine? Amazing woman.
@@gracemclean2098 Absolutely! I just saw this today: www.google.com/url?q=thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/in-the-know/528103-obama-says-dolly-parton-not-getting-medal-of-freedom-was&sa=D&source=hangouts&ust=1606962731611000&usg=AFQjCNELjYlxn6sg5RyD3ULzfUrkK39M8w
If you guys are at the point that you feel protective of the guys you need to watch the songs that they made for ARMY like mikrokosmos and We Are Bulletproof: The Eternal.
@@annetteharvey7081 i love the one from jimmy fallon too! agreed, it was filmed beautifully. i also like the one from the youtube 2020 graduation from bangtantv. they just look like they are having fun in that one. this one: ruclips.net/video/ErTgtL1Tjns/видео.html jimmy fallon=pretty youtube=fun
That one is great as well! I just want these guys to realize that they are ARMY now and that BTS purples them now as well, not just us ARMY in the comments 💜🤣
The song at the end Young Forever has a special meaning to the boys. They went through really hard times and this is one of the songs that comforted them. Especially Jimin’s cried a lot and he said: this song helped me a lot when the times were really hard. Another song is Tear! It’s not about a break up between two lovers but BTS themselves. You should first react to a lyric vid and then BTS - Tear live at Wembley I enjoy your ride into the rabbit whole. BTW: 53 yr old proud ARMY 😃 Borahae 💜
K Pop simply is a term for Korean popular music. It has many iterations of which Idol music is one. Idol music sometimes in people's minds becomes synonymous with the term K Pop but this is a simplification mostly generated in the West due to Idol music being a primary modus of international exposure to Korean musical output. BTS is third generation K Pop and indeed largely maintains the trappings of the Idol platform such as costuming, makeup, motion and formations, props, along with a blend of singing and rap. But their unique diversified output may make the term K Pop an oversimplification which has led some to think BTS has achieved separation from their historical antecedents. In my mind, they are the generational group utilizing all available tools to create an output with unparalleled originality and professionalism in the history of the Idol platform and simultaneously a group which has expanded Korean popular music so much as to become globally significant, indeed important. The 4th generation groups' reverence and covering of BTS songs and choreographies in concert shows their influence extends way deep into the Idol platform. So I say recognize all that is special about BTS but do not put a plaque on the BTS pedestal which is rewriting history to satisfy personal aspirations. I think how late sixties Beatles music differed and revolutionized the rock industry is an apt comparison. I do not recall people creating a separate category of music for them. I do recall people seeing them as generational artists who influenced the course of music going forward.
BE is going to be a stand alone album the guys created it by themselves from the concept to the producing to the writing of the songs all self made, this album wasnt planned so it wasnt really meant to BE since technically they would've just been finishing or just finished their world tour but covid struck so all of the concerts were cancelled...so this is a gift to us
I was there to sing young forever at Wembley and it is the most emotional atmosphere, everyone was so connected and it's a cherished memory. Their message throughout their songs helps so many people! 💜
Make certain you do not upload “BE” comeback during the first 24 hrs of it dropping - This is so that everyone streams the comeback and not get distracted with reactions during that time. NOTE: I was just told by a friend that the proper way to stream the new MV is to watch another MV or reaction in between each viewing of the “BE” MV; and to watch it till the end. If you stream the “BE” MV continuously it won’t count toward the viewing numbers.
Honestly I'm so nervous and excited at the same time for the new album coming.I know already it's gonna be my best one. I'm already fallen in love with their 2020album "Map of the soul:7" and it will a hard time listening to another new album for all days and nights without a rest haha. But we all have no choice but to be super grateful and extremely excited
at 41 i took my kid to a concert at the london 02 !st time they came 2 years ago they sold it out 2 nights in a row in 15 mins i was shocked !!! never looked back after that performance.....went to wembly too ! I ask myself why I never heard of them i think its just prejudice its in us all x but no more .....go for the new album reaction cos its the 1st time you are seeing them fresh :)
I know a lot of people are recommending 2019 MMA but I think you guys would appreciate that a lot more if you reacted to it in a while, because a lot of things that seem inconsequential actually aren’t, but you’d have to be a bit more familiar with their discography to notice. It is an incredible performance, but also very... performative. Its more about choreo and stage than anything else. I personally love 2016 MAMA performance, which requires less background knowledge and is more about vocals than 2019 MMA. (2018 MMA was also incredible performance-wise, btw) Love your videos, btw 💜
Thanks for this, Sofia! Adding 2016 to the list now, too. We already had those other two performances on our list (for eventual reactions). We have probably been waiting for that very reason!
one of the songs you were bopping to was DDaeng, which was from the rapline, released for free for their fans for one of the Musters (I think), it doesnt have an MV, but you can react to a live perfomance with eng lyrics and I would strongly reccommend the explanation video by DKDKTV, to get a deeper grasp of the songs, only a Korean would understand it without one.
For some reason, I really love watching your journey into the world of bts. Like more than usual lol. I was so proud when I saw you name all of them in the previous videos. And now I see you've become protective 🤣💜. Definitely Army. Happy first comeback!
There is the Bangtan Universe (BTU) which is the fictional storyline that runs through some of their music videos as if they are each chapters in the same book, but if you don’t want to watch them in order xceleste does have a video that explains it so that if you start in the middle you won’t be confused. Or you can watch it in order. Your choice. The new album Be is actually a departure from their current Map of the Soul trilogy, and is just songs they wrote about how they were feeling during quarantine and lockdown when all their plans for 2020 went down the drain. They talk about in in their speech to the UNITED NATIONS in September 2020. You might want to watch that first before listening to the new album, as it kind of gives the background of these songs.
Brothers from another color, don’t forget the American music awards are on this Sunday at 8:00 PM on ABC Eastern standard time 💜 BTS has been nominated for two of the categories for social artist and duo or group and pop/ rock plus they will be performing their new song, “Life Goes On” and Dynamite 🧨 💜 and on November 23 Monday they will be onGood Morning America! And November 30 BTS will be performing on Disney holiday special at 8 PM Eastern standard time on ABC
@Dee.Ca, Hopefully they will see my comment I am excited for the American music awards because I’m hoping they’re going to take both the social artist and duo or group in pop/rock awards!💜
And the album wasn't called shadow, BUT the first song that they dropped to us was called "Shadow" and the album had a darker concept, like the song Black Swan, Louder than Bombs, etc
Thank ya'll for reacting to this!!! It was put out before their Map of the Soul 7 came out this past February, but is pretty good with catching you up until this year. They have given us so much this year that they could make a whole separate video just on 2020 LOL. Thank you again!!!
The reason they are so varied in their style is all seven men have their own style and Big Hit allows to them to showcase their personalities in covers, mixtapes, and solo songs so their is a song for everyone.
I still remember going down the BTS rabbit hole. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with hearing random songs in any order because from the very beginning BTS was BTS. When we talk about how they’ve grown, it’s not so much musically, but from teens to young adults. I’ve heard some people/critics praise them for being so much better now, but for me for army you’ll pull together playlists of BTS and it’ll be based on the vibe you’re creating because we know the sound changes from song to song. In general, I can safely speak for all army when I say their entire discography is sacred. I have 2013 songs on the same playlist as 2020 songs etc. because they sound so good together. I’ve been following your journey and it’s so cool-- instead of starting at the beginning, you can always do that later, go ahead and listen to suggestions on what to listen to. There are so many amazing songs that I want you to hear right away! “Born singer” is their cover of a J. Cole song- they changed lyrics etc. I will never not cry for that one. Also, even though you won’t see it in the official live version, tears were shed. This might be one to look up the lyrics first even though the concert version has English lyrics. Do this one the other night that you guys are feeling chill.
I'm really enjoying watching you two fall down the rabbit hole!! Welcome onboard, baby ARMY!💜 So their Map Of The Soul series is now technically considered complete. It's based on Carl Jung's theory of individuation. After MOTS: Persona came MOTS: 7 that combined the concepts of Shadow and Ego. Its actually really interesting and from what I've seen of your videos, you might like it. If not for COVID, they'd have probably been on tour promoting the MOTS series. Anyway, instead we got Dynamite and BE so i guess that's the silver lining.
I really love you guys for the fact you just don't hear to the BTS music but you also deep dive to understand the lyrics, appreciate our boys hardwork and the emotions
I think you can jump on the BTS train at anytime and still enjoy their music. However, to fully understand the BTS Universe (BU) and/or appreciate their growth you have to go back to the early trilogies. You're right, you can't box BTS into one category. BTS is BTS.
Aw, don't misinterpret Cardi's intentions. I thought it was very sweet of her to relate her parents' immigrant experience. She understands full well how you are treated in America when you don't speak English.
So glad you're finally calling yourselves "Baby ARMY"! Definitely think you should start in a chronological format to get a feel of how much they've grown before getting into where they are now. As Suga (Yoongi) has said, K-pop is every type of music and so is BTS. They don't fit into a square peg and they don't have to.
When I was watching your video, it reminded me of my own ARMY journey. Being from Singapore, where Kpop has been popular for over 20 years now, we are spoiled for choice as to the number of Kpop groups that debut every year. I was and still am an IGOT7 or Ahgase (that's what GOT7 fans are called), when BTS started getting my attention. BTS & GOT7 are good friends, both on a professional and personal level. GOT7's Jackson is friends with BTS' RM, GOT7 Mark is friends with BTS V, GOT7 Bambam is friends with BTS Suga & Jungkook, and GOT7 Yugyeom is besties with BTS Jungkook. The 2 groups once performed together for a Korean awards show & have participated in the idol version of the Olympics. Anyway, I had already heard of BTS and knew a few of their songs by the time I became ARMY. The first BTS song that got my attention was "Danger", and coincidentally, the song & the album is from has since become quite special to me, because it was released 1 day before my birthday. However, this song did NOT make me ARMY yet. The one that got me good was "I Need U"... it got stuck in my head & just wouldn't leave & the music video stood out in my mind, because of how real it was, no sugar coating whatsoever... I joke about how I became ARMY by saying that BTS said "I Need U" and I answered, "Here I am!" So now, I'm both ARMY & Ahgase, and this month, I'm being fed like crazy, 'cos both BTS & GOT7 are releasing new albums! BTS with "BE" and GOT7 with "Breath Of Love: Last Piece". As a Kpop fan, I feel well pampered by both groups this month :-)
Loving these reactions ! Guys.... tape your BE comeback but don’t share it for 24hrs because Army will be Streaming for the boys like craaaaaaazy!!! You can share it with us laters! 👍🏻😍 Welcome to the New Era of BTS! Glad you’re here! StayGold!!!
Love your reaction about them having a mission and you can’t box them in because they do and make their art based on their mission! 💜 You guys need to learn the fan chant so we can see and hear you guys do it together!! Ooohhh and do it along with Idol or Fake Love!!!! Yeeeessss it will be “hella lit” 😉😁💜🧨✌🏼 I’m looking forward to your Blood, Sweat, & Tears reaction! 😆
Glad that you are enjoying the discovery phase. I can see your good chemistry between each other and the genuinity to learn and know more about our boys. Newly subscribed here to walk your journey with you. Stay safe and stay happy always. Love
A lot of international Armys flew to UK to be there at that moment.. cuz it was gonna be special...I flew there from Canada and saw so many armys from around the world with their Flags with them
What is the Bangtan Universe? The Bangtan Universe (abbreviated BU) is a fictional universe created by BigHit that serves as a vehicle for storytelling. Beginning with BTS's music video “I Need U” (released April 29, 2015), BTS began to portray characters in some of their videos.
I enjoy your reactions. I also think that you guys go well together. I like your chemistry and your conversations at the end of your reactions. Thank you.
The last performances on the video were Fromm their 2019 MMA awards show. They had the stage for like 30 minutes.... check it out please it will amaze you.
This is a great video to listen to a samoke of each title song since the is debut. BTW, I really love your videos, I just keep waiting until you drop a new video. 💜💜
I read this comment, so I will copy paste it: About the song Butterfly: tw//suicide.. Suga wrote this song to express the fear of losing someone by using a butterfly as a metaphor. Butterflies disappear and leave without a trace if you don’t pay close attention to it - just like how you could lose a person who brings you happiness in just a moment. Suga portrays the fear of losing someone you are close with who wants to commit suicide and hints that you try to save them before they disappear forever. The HYYH trilogy is the beginning of the Bangtan Universe (BU), which consists of the hardships that the youth has to go thru during their adulthood (depressions, pressures, temptations, suicides, etc)... And if you haven't realized, BTS trilogies since 2013 up until now are based on their ages/timeline, their trilogies evolved as they aged and the story of each trilogies correlate to their current experiences during that time... for example, the first 2013-2014 trilogy was when they were still in school, therefore most of the songs on the album talk about the school system and the social pressure and high expectations against young people.. when HYYH trilogy started in 2015 was when BTS members were close to graduating from high school and thus entering the adulthood in which youth usually experiences things like anxiety, social pressures, depressions, etc, then with WINGS album, is where you are losing your innocent as a young person entering the adulthood and up until the latest series Map Of The Soul (which addresses about their Persona, Shadow, and Ego) is when they go inward to learn to accept all of their flaws, shadows, fears, etc and to truly understand the essence of their soul (to find their map of the soul)
Now, interesting to react to "BTS Break Down Their Albums, From DARK & WILD to MAP OF THE SOUL: 7 | Pitchfork" BTS comb through their entire discography, album-by-album, and get into what inspired their records. BTS break down everything encompassing their albums including where the records got their titles, the album art and much more.
Interesting tidbit--the song you said sounded most "boy band-y", I Need You (Girl), isn't at heart about a romantic relationship. That line was changed from I Need U Friend because it had a better auditory quality. It's pretty clear in the MV it's about the BU friendships. The BU makes me sob. Feelings for ever.
Hey, I really love your Videos and I don't know if you said it and I simply overheard it but is the giveaway only in the USA or the whole World? Because I'm living in germany so I really wanne know if I can join too💜
Lol 😂 you guys at 20:20 are totally me at my baby ARMY times. *Sigh* the good days when you are signing incomprehensible nonsense and totally enjoying it 😌🤧💜💜💜💜💜
you guys have to react to the blood sweet and tears. they lyrics video, MV, the dance practice and the explanition video. the wings album is really interesting and has a story to it.💜💜💜
I feel like listening to music you wouldn’t traditionally listen to or in different languages comes from what you’re exposed to. I’m white and speak only English but growing up in a community with a heavy Spanish population it was quite normal to hear Spanish music and enjoy it. Then as a teenager who got into anime enjoying Japanese ost was a thing and then getting into BTS. I just needed the vibe and beat, I didn’t even need the lyrics to enjoy
RM let us know about themes that are spread across groups of three albums and made us excited for more BTS reaction videos. This reaction did highlight information we already knew about BTS, but sometimes, it’s great to hear information we already knew and reminders for information we had forgotten!
We are ready for our first COMEBACK! Who else is ready?

thank you!
Thank you
Exactly!
yes she is known for being an army
Love Eric Nam! One of their biggest fans also a great singer too.
Hes amazing
i don't even like cardi LMAO but i think she was being genuine and was just shocked at how they managed to break into the western music market
I was there at Wembley when we surprised them and it was truly a moment that you cant really explain the feeling of because it feels so tender to get that moment with people who all care for eachother and treat eachother as family.💜💜💜

And on z side note if they were working on shadow that means it was pushed back and thry have a whole album that can be released potentially just before or after military service starts. With Jins dekay they maybe even beable to have two albums in the pipeline to release during that time.
Good point. They also wouldn't have known if Jin was getting an extension and it would make sense to tie things up before that as well
I feel like it’s already over, cause they’ve explored all concepts. This is probably a new chapter
For some strange reason people seem to think they have to label things and put them in boxes whereas in reality nothing is so cut and dried and the proof of this is BTS themselves, multi genre , multi talented and completely different personalities. Yet they came together and worked together to make the best group Ive heard in my lifetime (im old BTW) and they are constantly growing and changing. Plus you can enjoy them just on the surface lvl by liking the beat the choreo etc but there are so many layers to their music. They use so many references to literature and art in their music and MVs. They do a very good and subtle job on teaching ARMY and also make them want to search for answers to the underlying things.
Don't stress. There's no "right way" to get into this ARMY life. BE is very much a gift from BTS to us for making it through this crazy difficult year. Because of that, I think it'd be a perfect place for you both to start if you want to. But, again, do things how you want, we'll still watch!
Dolly Parton saw the clip of JK in tears during her song and suggested on a couple occasions she'd be open to a collaboration. It is my dearest wish. 😄
There was a ridiculously young and ignorant response from some ARMYs that she was a clout chaser. I was like - Dude. It's Dolly Parton. *She is* walking, breathing clout.
Tangent: did you know she contributed heavily to the development of a COVID-19 vaccine? Amazing woman.
I've loved Dolly Parton since a teenager, would love a collaboration. Thank you for shouting her out. Truly beautiful inside and out 🤗
@@gracemclean2098 Absolutely!
I just saw this today:

If you guys are at the point that you feel protective of the guys you need to watch the songs that they made for ARMY like mikrokosmos and We Are Bulletproof: The Eternal.
Yessss
random but is there a music video from bighit for mikrokosmos? i looked but didnt see one.
No official but i recommend the one from Jimmy Fallon. The production value is great. It was amazing!
@@annetteharvey7081 i love the one from jimmy fallon too! agreed, it was filmed beautifully. i also like the one from the youtube 2020 graduation from bangtantv. they just look like they are having fun in that one. this one: ruclips.net/video/ErTgtL1Tjns/видео.html
jimmy fallon=pretty
youtube=fun
That one is great as well! I just want these guys to realize that they are ARMY now and that BTS purples them now as well, not just us ARMY in the comments 💜🤣
The song at the end Young Forever has a special meaning to the boys. They went through really hard times and this is one of the songs that comforted them. Especially Jimin’s cried a lot and he said: this song helped me a lot when the times were really hard.
Another song is Tear! It’s not about a break up between two lovers but BTS themselves. You should first react to a lyric vid and then BTS - Tear live at Wembley
I enjoy your ride into the rabbit whole.
BTW: 53 yr old proud ARMY 😃 Borahae 💜
K Pop simply is a term for Korean popular music. It has many iterations of which Idol music is one. Idol music sometimes in people's minds becomes synonymous with the term K Pop but this is a simplification mostly generated in the West due to Idol music being a primary modus of international exposure to Korean musical output. BTS is third generation K Pop and indeed largely maintains the trappings of the Idol platform such as costuming, makeup, motion and formations, props, along with a blend of singing and rap.
But their unique diversified output may make the term K Pop an oversimplification which has led some to think BTS has achieved separation from their historical antecedents. In my mind, they are the generational group utilizing all available tools to create an output with unparalleled originality and professionalism in the history of the Idol platform and simultaneously a group which has expanded Korean popular music so much as to become globally significant, indeed important. The 4th generation groups' reverence and covering of BTS songs and choreographies in concert shows their influence extends way deep into the Idol platform.
So I say recognize all that is special about BTS but do not put a plaque on the BTS pedestal which is rewriting history to satisfy personal aspirations. I think how late sixties Beatles music differed and revolutionized the rock industry is an apt comparison. I do not recall people creating a separate category of music for them. I do recall people seeing them as generational artists who influenced the course of music going forward.
Are you two ready for BE because I feel like I can’t breathe correctly😂
Omg me too! i honestly can't waittttt.. I have to wake up at 5:30 AM...
Same💜💜 when they come back my heart boom boom😂💜
I’m going to be useless tomorrow since I’m going to stay up for it to drop! OMG! OMG! OMG!💜🧨😝
BE’s gonna drop at midnight for me. It’s going to be a long night (and I can’t wait!).
Me too... suddenly I don't know how to act normal or stable 😂
BE is going to be a stand alone album the guys created it by themselves from the concept to the producing to the writing of the songs all self made, this album wasnt planned so it wasnt really meant to BE since technically they would've just been finishing or just finished their world tour but covid struck so all of the concerts were cancelled...so this is a gift to us
I was there to sing young forever at Wembley and it is the most emotional atmosphere, everyone was so connected and it's a cherished memory. Their message throughout their songs helps so many people! 💜
"They make music for everybody." Trale, say it louder for the people in the back!! 👏👏👏
the last part of that video always, always makes me cry...I'm only two months into the rabbit hole and I don't want to ever get out
Make certain you do not upload “BE” comeback during the first 24 hrs of it dropping - This is so that everyone streams the comeback and not get distracted with reactions during that time. NOTE: I was just told by a friend that the proper way to stream the new MV is to watch another MV or reaction in between each viewing of the “BE” MV; and to watch it till the end. If you stream the “BE” MV continuously it won’t count toward the viewing numbers.
Ohh congratulations on your first comeback!
Honestly I'm so nervous and excited at the same time for the new album coming.I know already it's gonna be my best one. I'm already fallen in love with their 2020album "Map of the soul:7" and it will a hard time listening to another new album for all days and nights without a rest haha. But we all have no choice but to be super grateful and extremely excited
As you can see, there’s an entire BTS world of music yet to be explored....I’m very excited and happy for you two to experience it!
Love how you guys have just thrown yourselves into this! 💜 so nice to see!
at 41 i took my kid to a concert at the london 02 !st time they came 2 years ago they sold it out 2 nights in a row in 15 mins i was shocked !!! never looked back after that performance.....went to wembly too ! I ask myself why I never heard of them i think its just prejudice its in us all x but no more .....go for the new album reaction cos its the 1st time you are seeing them fresh :)
I know a lot of people are recommending 2019 MMA but I think you guys would appreciate that a lot more if you reacted to it in a while, because a lot of things that seem inconsequential actually aren’t, but you’d have to be a bit more familiar with their discography to notice. It is an incredible performance, but also very... performative. Its more about choreo and stage than anything else. I personally love 2016 MAMA performance, which requires less background knowledge and is more about vocals than 2019 MMA. (2018 MMA was also incredible performance-wise, btw)
Love your videos, btw 💜
Yes. This. Very much.
Thanks for this, Sofia! Adding 2016 to the list now, too. We already had those other two performances on our list (for eventual reactions). We have probably been waiting for that very reason!
one of the songs you were bopping to was DDaeng, which was from the rapline, released for free for their fans for one of the Musters (I think), it doesnt have an MV, but you can react to a live perfomance with eng lyrics and I would strongly reccommend the explanation video by DKDKTV, to get a deeper grasp of the songs, only a Korean would understand it without one.
For some reason, I really love watching your journey into the world of bts. Like more than usual lol. I was so proud when I saw you name all of them in the previous videos. And now I see you've become protective 🤣💜. Definitely Army. Happy first comeback!
You nice , keep going👍🏻💜

There is the Bangtan Universe (BTU) which is the fictional storyline that runs through some of their music videos as if they are each chapters in the same book, but if you don’t want to watch them in order xceleste does have a video that explains it so that if you start in the middle you won’t be confused. Or you can watch it in order. Your choice. The new album Be is actually a departure from their current Map of the Soul trilogy, and is just songs they wrote about how they were feeling during quarantine and lockdown when all their plans for 2020 went down the drain. They talk about in in their speech to the UNITED NATIONS in September 2020. You might want to watch that first before listening to the new album, as it kind of gives the background of these songs.
Brothers from another color, don’t forget the American music awards are on this Sunday at 8:00 PM on ABC Eastern standard time 💜 BTS has been nominated for two of the categories for social artist and duo or group and pop/ rock plus they will be performing their new song, “Life Goes On” and Dynamite 🧨 💜 and on November 23 Monday they will be onGood Morning America! And November 30 BTS will be performing on Disney holiday special at 8 PM Eastern standard time on ABC
Yes I hope they read this so hopefully they can watch this live. I hadn’t seen anyone else commenting about their upcoming live performances
@Dee.Ca, Hopefully they will see my comment I am excited for the American music awards because I’m hoping they’re going to take both the social artist and duo or group in pop/rock awards!💜
I am taking tomorrow morning off so I can listen to BE at midnight and have the AMAs and GMA set as alarms on my phone 🤣
And the album wasn't called shadow, BUT the first song that they dropped to us was called "Shadow" and the album had a darker concept, like the song Black Swan, Louder than Bombs, etc
Thank ya'll for reacting to this!!! It was put out before their Map of the Soul 7 came out this past February, but is pretty good with catching you up until this year. They have given us so much this year that they could make a whole separate video just on 2020 LOL. Thank you again!!!
The reason they are so varied in their style is all seven men have their own style and Big Hit allows to them to showcase their personalities in covers, mixtapes, and solo songs so their is a song for everyone.
I still remember going down the BTS rabbit hole. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with hearing random songs in any order because from the very beginning BTS was BTS. When we talk about how they’ve grown, it’s not so much musically, but from teens to young adults. I’ve heard some people/critics praise them for being so much better now, but for me for army you’ll pull together playlists of BTS and it’ll be based on the vibe you’re creating because we know the sound changes from song to song. In general, I can safely speak for all army when I say their entire discography is sacred. I have 2013 songs on the same playlist as 2020 songs etc. because they sound so good together.
I’ve been following your journey and it’s so cool-- instead of starting at the beginning, you can always do that later, go ahead and listen to suggestions on what to listen to. There are so many amazing songs that I want you to hear right away! “Born singer” is their cover of a J. Cole song- they changed lyrics etc. I will never not cry for that one. Also, even though you won’t see it in the official live version, tears were shed. This might be one to look up the lyrics first even though the concert version has English lyrics. Do this one the other night that you guys are feeling chill.
I'm really enjoying watching you two fall down the rabbit hole!! Welcome onboard, baby ARMY!💜
So their Map Of The Soul series is now technically considered complete. It's based on Carl Jung's theory of individuation. After MOTS: Persona came MOTS: 7 that combined the concepts of Shadow and Ego. Its actually really interesting and from what I've seen of your videos, you might like it. If not for COVID, they'd have probably been on tour promoting the MOTS series. Anyway, instead we got Dynamite and BE so i guess that's the silver lining.
I like how you react to BTS..and your right being a new baby Army 👍👍👍 keep it up
Let’s get ready to STREAM our boys to the Top.... MV “Live Goes On” BE ‼️ 💜💪🏼🎶💜
The song which you say you gonna like it - Epiphany by Jin, you should check out his live concert versions, it’s hella lit!
I really love you guys for the fact you just don't hear to the BTS music but you also deep dive to understand the lyrics, appreciate our boys hardwork and the emotions
BTS has this uncanny ability to bring out our protective sides.
BE album is a new era so worries about connecting previous albums. Just post the reaction 24 hours after the video releases. Can't wait !
Grammy just call BTS!!!! I know you want to!!! Can`t hide for long that invitation to perform and recognize our BTS
BTS is a Family 💜
There is a thing. You find BTS when you need them the most. No one is late
Im so proud of you both youre recognizing the members one by one now...
I think you can jump on the BTS train at anytime and still enjoy their music. However, to fully understand the BTS Universe (BU) and/or appreciate their growth you have to go back to the early trilogies. You're right, you can't box BTS into one category. BTS is BTS.
Aw, don't misinterpret Cardi's intentions. I thought it was very sweet of her to relate her parents' immigrant experience. She understands full well how you are treated in America when you don't speak English.
BTS is a genre! Thanks for the reaction!
So glad you're finally calling yourselves "Baby ARMY"! Definitely think you should start in a chronological format to get a feel of how much they've grown before getting into where they are now. As Suga (Yoongi) has said, K-pop is every type of music and so is BTS. They don't fit into a square peg and they don't have to.
The only type of music I ever listened to was Latin and English songs, but BTS made me fall in love with their songs.
Also, BTS drops their new MV at midnight on RUclips. They also will release their new album BE.
RM will say : Nice voice, sing more for me
When I was watching your video, it reminded me of my own ARMY journey. Being from Singapore, where Kpop has been popular for over 20 years now, we are spoiled for choice as to the number of Kpop groups that debut every year. I was and still am an IGOT7 or Ahgase (that's what GOT7 fans are called), when BTS started getting my attention. BTS & GOT7 are good friends, both on a professional and personal level. GOT7's Jackson is friends with BTS' RM, GOT7 Mark is friends with BTS V, GOT7 Bambam is friends with BTS Suga & Jungkook, and GOT7 Yugyeom is besties with BTS Jungkook. The 2 groups once performed together for a Korean awards show & have participated in the idol version of the Olympics.
Anyway, I had already heard of BTS and knew a few of their songs by the time I became ARMY. The first BTS song that got my attention was "Danger", and coincidentally, the song & the album is from has since become quite special to me, because it was released 1 day before my birthday. However, this song did NOT make me ARMY yet. The one that got me good was "I Need U"... it got stuck in my head & just wouldn't leave & the music video stood out in my mind, because of how real it was, no sugar coating whatsoever... I joke about how I became ARMY by saying that BTS said "I Need U" and I answered, "Here I am!"
So now, I'm both ARMY & Ahgase, and this month, I'm being fed like crazy, 'cos both BTS & GOT7 are releasing new albums! BTS with "BE" and GOT7 with "Breath Of Love: Last Piece". As a Kpop fan, I feel well pampered by both groups this month :-)
Loving these reactions !
Guys.... tape your BE comeback but don’t share it for 24hrs because Army will be Streaming for the boys like craaaaaaazy!!!
You can share it with us laters! 👍🏻😍
Welcome to the New Era of BTS!
Glad you’re here!
StayGold!!!

Bye EXO was really funny
Are you excited about your first comeback?? You guys are great.. Fun to watch!!
Love your reaction about them having a mission and you can’t box them in because they do and make their art based on their mission! 💜
You guys need to learn the fan chant so we can see and hear you guys do it together!! Ooohhh and do it along with Idol or Fake Love!!!! Yeeeessss it will be “hella lit” 😉😁💜🧨✌🏼
I’m looking forward to your Blood, Sweat, & Tears reaction! 😆
Glad that you are enjoying the discovery phase. I can see your good chemistry between each other and the genuinity to learn and know more about our boys. Newly subscribed here to walk your journey with you. Stay safe and stay happy always. Love
guys keep in mind this video is from 2019, they’ve achieved so much more now!
A lot of international Armys flew to UK to be there at that moment.. cuz it was gonna be special...I flew there from Canada and saw so many armys from around the world with their Flags with them
Cardi B was/are just a sweetheart with them...

Ah- Cardi B is very inclusive to other artists and that’s why I started giving her my listens.
Watch BuzzFeed's BTS interview with puppies to see where the "you nice; keep going" quote comes from. 🙂
Same here. I like to listen to their music even though I didn't understand it. It's just that I really like the vibe and it's very cool.
We say we are ready but in reality we will never be ready. It is allways the same. Thx for your time 💜🇩🇪😁
U guys should start the Bangtan Universe story line from the beginning
What is the Bangtan Universe? The Bangtan Universe (abbreviated BU) is a fictional universe created by BigHit that serves as a vehicle for storytelling. Beginning with BTS's music video “I Need U” (released April 29, 2015), BTS began to portray characters in some of their videos.
I enjoy your reactions. I also think that you guys go well together. I like your chemistry and your conversations at the end of your reactions. Thank you.
The niche is their message which goes across those genres.
Its never too late to get into the journey💜💜😳
The last performances on the video were Fromm their 2019 MMA awards show. They had the stage for like 30 minutes.... check it out please it will amaze you.
Only BTS can get a 37 minutes set at an award show.
Thank you for digging more into this rabbit hole😂😅
This is a great video to listen to a samoke of each title song since the is debut.
BTW, I really love your videos, I just keep waiting until you drop a new video.
💜💜
Officially my favorite channel in less than 10 minutes. You nice, keep going armys💜
i love your videos 💜
You find it amazing that you can enjoy listening to BTS in Korean, just wait till you can sing along word for word in Korean.
I read this comment, so I will copy paste it: About the song Butterfly: tw//suicide.. Suga wrote this song to express the fear of losing someone by using a butterfly as a metaphor. Butterflies disappear and leave without a trace if you don’t pay close attention to it - just like how you could lose a person who brings you happiness in just a moment. Suga portrays the fear of losing someone you are close with who wants to commit suicide and hints that you try to save them before they disappear forever. The HYYH trilogy is the beginning of the Bangtan Universe (BU), which consists of the hardships that the youth has to go thru during their adulthood (depressions, pressures, temptations, suicides, etc)...
And if you haven't realized, BTS trilogies since 2013 up until now are based on their ages/timeline, their trilogies evolved as they aged and the story of each trilogies correlate to their current experiences during that time... for example, the first 2013-2014 trilogy was when they were still in school, therefore most of the songs on the album talk about the school system and the social pressure and high expectations against young people.. when HYYH trilogy started in 2015 was when BTS members were close to graduating from high school and thus entering the adulthood in which youth usually experiences things like anxiety, social pressures, depressions, etc, then with WINGS album, is where you are losing your innocent as a young person entering the adulthood and up until the latest series Map Of The Soul (which addresses about their Persona, Shadow, and Ego) is when they go inward to learn to accept all of their flaws, shadows, fears, etc and to truly understand the essence of their soul (to find their map of the soul)
“BTS MMA 2019” pleease🙏🏻😭😍💜
watching this right before the premiere lmao
Now, interesting to react to "BTS Break Down Their Albums, From DARK & WILD to MAP OF THE SOUL: 7 | Pitchfork"
BTS comb through their entire discography, album-by-album, and get into what inspired their records. BTS break down everything encompassing their albums including where the records got their titles, the album art and much more.
I found that a very insightful interview.
Please react to BTS IN THE SOOP in a nutshell🙏💜💜👀
Interesting tidbit--the song you said sounded most "boy band-y", I Need You (Girl), isn't at heart about a romantic relationship. That line was changed from I Need U Friend because it had a better auditory quality. It's pretty clear in the MV it's about the BU friendships.
The BU makes me sob. Feelings for ever.
Tale being all cute saying "Is that IT??" UWU ^_^ love you guys!
You guys are too cute 😁
Hey, I really love your Videos and I don't know if you said it and I simply overheard it but is the giveaway only in the USA or the whole World? Because I'm living in germany so I really wanne know if I can join too💜
Lol 😂 you guys at 20:20 are totally me at my baby ARMY times. *Sigh* the good days when you are signing incomprehensible nonsense and totally enjoying it 😌🤧💜💜💜💜💜
Wow, cardi was never talking down on them, she was saying she understood how it about the no English speaking barrier bc her parents went thru it too
you guys have to react to the blood sweet and tears. they lyrics video, MV, the dance practice and the explanition video. the wings album is really interesting and has a story to it.💜💜💜
Gotta view and stream the new album, for sure! Then take your time to go down the time line of various albums by theme.
I feel like listening to music you wouldn’t traditionally listen to or in different languages comes from what you’re exposed to. I’m white and speak only English but growing up in a community with a heavy Spanish population it was quite normal to hear Spanish music and enjoy it. Then as a teenager who got into anime enjoying Japanese ost was a thing and then getting into BTS. I just needed the vibe and beat, I didn’t even need the lyrics to enjoy
love ur reaction👍
You know....i'm crying again.... 😭💜💜💜💜💜💜💜. Tq guys i❤u both
