Hi, the live performance in this video was blocked by RUclips so it had to be cut. The version with the performance still in it is on our patreon. Sorry, it is what it is, hope everyone enjoys this video!
I just appreciate that you are truly interested in our boys…a lot are reacting and don’t really have a real interest in them, they talk through things not realizing how much they are missing and clearly just in it for the views. Thankyou again for the respect you are showing 💜💜💜
Theres a reason to the big difference in how BTS approaches hiphop & black culture when compared to most kpop grps who tend to be real ignorant against its roots. Majority kpop rappers dont write their lyrics its just used for an aesthetic and theres always a lack of knowldge that hiphop was born out of oppression. What sets apart BTS is the clear tribute & respect they provide to hiphop OGs, they learned abt the culture a large chunk through AHL indeed.
What is hilarious is that, in AHL, they never received the kind of hate that they had from so-called "real hip-hop artists" (except from that piece of trash Dante ofc). Those rappers are acting like they're better than everyone when they don't even understand hip-hop at all. They literally received much more praise and encouragement than critics. Jealousy at its finest.
Thank you for taking the time to react to all this content! It's probably very overwhelming, especially since some ARMYs are still requesting you guys to react to more content as of now, but we're definitely grateful for the time you guys have dedicated putting into this journey.
omg true, people always try to hurry the reactors to reach and react their personal fave rather than let them go the journey themselves😭 like i feel everyone has their own flow of going down the rabbit hole, ppl need to chill fr. but i like the format they've got going on now tbh. trob chappies with music chronologically and recent stuff(they mentioned suchwita ep with IU, IM WAITING) randomly in between. id recommend watching suchwita eps with the members for their solo albums, if yall want help is deciding what new recent stuff u should watch.
AHL certainly has it flaws, but the fact that bts were so open and receptive made my love and respect for them double. You can tell that they really wanted to learn and approach hip hop culture authentically. And it shows in their music. Love them! 💜
Thats the funny part. New ARMYs these days try to paint the show as almost as abuse, but the BTS members themselves enjoyed every second of it, even the hard parts. I dont like that type of narrative that some fans are tryin to put out. This is part of BTS Journey and a part of the members growing experience. These no need to paint it as something it wasnt for them.
V trolling jimin everywhere is such a bestie behavior 😂😂 Jimin and V attended same high-school btw since they are same age their song "friends " is about their relationship
Honestly, kpop has such a notoriously problematic approach to hip hop that I am nothing but grateful BTS took it seriously enough to go to the US and really learn about it. RM, Suga, and j-hope come from underground hip hop background--RM & Suga as rappers and j-hope as a hip hop street dancer and beatboxer. They've always had a lot of respect for the origins of hip hop and given credit to the black artists that pioneered the genre. j-hope even maintained a blog where he broke down hip hop styles and explained their histories and nuances. But in a pre-interview they did for this show, some of the vocalists clearly had less of an idea (which is understandable...it wasn't their world outside of their experience with it through kpop). In the pre-interview for the show the producers asked the boys what kpop was and Jungkook said "black" (the color--referring to their wardrobe) and Tae said "handsome." So they really needed the reality check that hip hop isn't an aesthetic, it's cultural, it's political, it's the history of a people. Recently a member of blackpink described hip hop as "cool vibes and whatever..." and named Rihanna as an example of a hip hop artist. Half of today's boy groups continue to put braids in their hair or worse. BTS hasn't always been perfect but they've constantly paid homage to the artists that built hip hop and have worked to exist in that space authentically without appropriating, mocking, or being exploitative. I think AHL is part of the reason why. Plus they gained a lot of connections and visibility through AHL. I mean, they got to work with Coolio and Warren G. Warren G later collabed on a song (PDD - Please Don't Die) with RM.
they didnt have any hit songs yet so when they said they couldnt be sure if their next album would be successful they were very serious. if it failed they would have to disband cause they did not have money to continue. their first hit song was i need u in 2015 on their 5th album/4th mini album. this episode is still in 2014. it took them almost 3 years to get a win on a music show which gets them money to continue. up to 2016 they were not really making a lot of money at all. even though the music video quality seemed to go up 2016 is when they were finally out of financial struggle. also if you notice when they were at the airport in korea at 5:27 there was a few people taking pictures but then when they arrived in the u.s at 6:18 there was a crowd of fans its cause they were NOT big in korea until after they got big overseas. sure they had lots of cheers and fanchants but it wasnt nearly as much as other idols in korea. once bts won bbma in 2017 then thats when korea started to pay attention to them and this is because the big 3 labels (sm yg jyp) PAID for media to suppress bts success. most koreans to this day dont know how big bts are truly unless they go overseas or look it up on social media. if they stick to korean sites, news, forms etc they wont get bts news as much as other idols and especially when bts was still small they didnt hear anything about them or if they did they heard negative news like exo fans accusing bts of plagiarism etc. not bts actual achievements or success overseas. all the news outlets you will see prior to 2016 are things that were hidden from the korean public. there were times even bts themselves didnt realize how big they were because in korea they were treated like trash but when they toured they were treated like big celebrities. none of this is guessing or speculation its known that the big 3 pay to keep smaller labels out of the media or to report on negative things/rumors only. this is why bts was the FIRST group outside of the big 3 to win at the mama and mma award shows. no other group from small or medium sized labels had one it was always big 3 groups only.
Being an army since 2013 , your comment brought back so many memories for me ! Being their fan from overseas I was so sad that they weren't popular in korea when they had such great messages in their songs..antis kept attacking us and saying that bts will disband because they're small in korea and only popular overseas which doesn't count for awards 😢 it was so hard to fight against them and the media ... I was so happy when bighit finally started sueing !
6:27 😢you can see the difference of their popularity korea vs America from how many people came to the airports... they werent popular or winning on music shows in korea their 1st 2 years , and antis used to use that to say bts will never make it 😤 because theyre only popular in America and that doesnt count for korean awards , and they kept telling us they will disband ...it was so hard to fight antis back then 😪
Seeing this episode truly makes us feel again just how much BTS tries not to change their core values and how much of what they said here really resonates with them even now.

@@Letsgetit97 así era antes, esa información se hizo antes del debut en solitario de V, pero ahora V es el ídolo más rico, aunque puede bajar, ya que tae ahora está en el SM
Tony (one of the mentors) has guested on the channel Fo Squad doing reactions to BTS in the last couple of years. It was really cool to hear his thoughts about BTS now. The relationship was impactful for the boys too. They mention Tony and Nate occasionally over the course of their careers.
At that stage they were a no hit wonder😭😭 they had many fans internationally but their korean fanbase was really small. Nothing they did was spoken about by the media because they didn't come from a large company and they couldn't even afford to pay journalists to write articles like many other companies
American Hustle Life really was their first reality show i've ever watched and I instantly liked them and probably the reason why V became my bias until now. I watched this back in 2017.
BTS's two tutors at that time, who were Tony and Nat, were very close to them, and until now Tony and Nat still support BTS, from afar, because they can't see each other because of all the work BTS has now.
I love American hustle life, the guys learnt so much and made friends. It really opened their eyes to what hip hop was in real life and not just rapping about it. You should do the series next, it shows so much more than this short episode.
Fairly recently we learned from Suga that they were such zombies out of exhaustion during that reality show that he was seriously thinking of running away right then and there but didn't because they were in america lmao it was one of the thoughest period
AHL gives me war flashbacks but as BTS did I take all the positive things and all they learned from that experience. I am happy for everything helping them to grow as people and artists. Thanks for your reaction! I feel like your interest keeps growing with each episode and it makes me happy. 💜
American hustle life BTS members learned a lot from their mentors , meet less fortunate people homeless along the streets and those people gave a good advice to BTS members, learned how to create their own music base on their life itself, learned dance and in that they performed free mini concerts for ARMY'S ❤,,, its worth to watch American hustle life episodes.
The live performance at the end in the deleted scene is a performance they were practicing for in the beginning when their CEO came in to tell them that they're going to the US..its a cover of a song from another big group. And the one that they were talking on stage its not like a full concert..its their first fan meeting concert and it was before their first full concert which is coming up on the next episode.
A little tid-bit that you may not know, but as you've seen, SUGA loves basketball. SUGA was the Global Ambassador of the NBA for the 2022-2023 season. It was the NBA that reached out to him, too. He did a lot of promos for the NBA. He would catch games whenever he was in the States. The Golden State Warriors even have a Warriors August D (SUGA's alter persona) clothing line. 💜
I feel like the only good that came out of the hip hop mtv thing is the pile of memes. V dancing to Gangsta’s Paradise in front of Coolio with ponytails was a fever dream and his funniest moment to date imo…
personally this is my least fave ep of the whole series ngl😭 but then the earlier TROB eps are more insights than narrations. it kinda explains why the members act the way they do years later. the constant self doubt, the fear of failing, their desire to be sincere towards their music, their love for the stage regardless etc etc the later eps go faster with their journey since they're fleshing out their characters now .
Appreciate you guys for really diving into BTS, I'm loving this daily vids, you now become part of my daily routine 😅 AHL- i know some Army's don't like it and won't recommend it , I don't love it either but I would still recommend it for you to watch. There are cringey scenes but overall I think the experience were useful to BTS and their growth as artists.
BTS went to LA for a reality show- American Hustle Life. After you finished with The Rise of Bangtan series, I hope you can also react to American Hustle Life. You will learn more what they did and what they have gone through while filming the show.
Fun fact about V is that he had previously auditioned for other Agencies but they all told him he couldn't sing. I wonder if that's why he initially chose not to participate in the audition for Big Hit and only went to support his friend until he was asked to by one of the Big Hit Staff. I'm glad he chose too and not to give up on singing. Now look at him, he should be so proud of himself for all of his hard work paying off.
There is a reality series called American Hustle Life which is where most of these clips came from. If you watch the series you will see more of their journey while in LA. I will warn you, the first episode is very cringy but keep watching. They learn so much. While they are recording the reality show they are also working on the Dark and Wild record (in a garage they rented) which is why they are so exhausted.
From what I understood, it was mostly funded by Mnet which is why they were able to go at all. And BTS was the perfect group to send since they were a hip-hop idol group. But it's to be taken with a grain of salt, I'm really not sure about it
Thank you for your awesome reaction 💜 like anything the reality show had good and bad moments but is all apart of their journey. Olus they really got to learn and experience real hiphop culture instead of singing about it.
still feel bad for them tho😭 they clearly invested a bit more for this release and obviously worked twice as hard this time what with shooting this show too at the same time. but the album didnt actually perform well. i think this trauma stayed with them for years😭 no more dream📈 N.O.📉 Boy In Luv📈 Danger📉 the 📈📉📈📉 of the success of their releases actually made sm impact on their psyches cos theyre NEVER optimistic now😭 every time they have a successful era, they start acting like grandpa's readying for decline cuz they expect the next to fail😭 it's funnier bcos from the next release onwards they only rose 🤓
Thank you guys for these reaction videos.. we're so grateful for the time you take to react to them and for the respect you give to the 7 boys.. we're also grateful that you post these regularly alongside the Deleted scenes and the Bonus content ! The editing in the series just keeps getting better and better each episode, and I'm sure you'll like that 💜 P.S : I don't know if anyone already told y'all previously in the comment section, but the name of each chapter/episode is actually the name of a song in one of their BTS albums, it can either be a solo song by one of the members OR a group song (by the rap unit, the vocal unit or the whole group) !
Honestly I am really enjoying watching you going through this journey. American Hustle Life (AHL) has a lot of cringe moments, but I think you guys would enjoy it (if you want to watch it on your own, or react to it) and appreciate it's RAWNESS. Granted many situations could have been dealt with better (some things could have been avoided completely) but that level of "bad rawness" there is also the "good rawness" the genuine relationships with the people they met, the fact that the boys really got a very good foundation for everything that was to come and more. All in all I would think that AHL was a very realistic formative experience, in the sense that it was absolutely NOT all peaches & roses, but had a lot to learn from, and many of this lessons they practice to this day.
Thank you for reactions, that arevalways focused , snd yiu tlrealoy look interested, and soooo fast you give them to us, it makes my day when I see them on my tl. You doing great and don't get burn out, peace yourself how you feel is good for you 😊 see You
thnx for starting this bts journey! We will be here with you throughout this. Can't wait to see more from you. Love that u both pay attention and discuss.
BTS in LA apart from studying Hip Hop they are also filming "American Hip Hop School" if you want to try the reaction to this show it will definitely be fun, Borahae 💜
As cringe and as harsh as their mentors in America were... I think it did them good. As Coolio said "this is my life" and if BTS want to represent hip-hop then they should learn about it's history.
Always enjoy watching with you guys! 💜 Feel free to jump back ◀, if you missed something or it wasn't clear, that's fine. Sometimes things move pretty fast.
I like your BTS videos. I watch them on my TV. And it would be much better when you make the video on the big screen, like the Twitch videos, and your cams in the corners. Because when the video is so smal I can not read the subtitles on my TV. 💜🥰💜
As Chris Martin of coldplay said, they are different. Bts is another level. It is why Chris admire increable music skill and Humble personity of each bts member.

Hmm this fan mettings in delated video were thro year, in america they were like 3 weeks or something so yeah they still did sime things in korea, to show them self, the song at tye rnd was cover thry performed it for some show, it was a way to promote too, tv programs always liked to make some groups to cover older groups... Now young bands cover BTS songs so yeah it is circle...
they can all buy a mansion in the US if they wanted. they just got 15 milion for resigning their contracts. and they each have sold a milion albums solo so they have tons of money. their CEO is one of the riches in the country and before BTS the company was about to go under. it´s crazy that BTS build Hybe from ground up. it´s not only albums they sell. the merch too and sponsors pay a lot to do a commercial with them. but also BTS is koreas tourist attraction so they bring so many money for the country. everyone who know BTS want to travel to korea. no other kpop group can make people travel to korea to see where they grew up and went to school. there is a BTS tour you can go to i really hope i get to go to korea some day. but i am to broke
ahhhhh American Hustle Life ajshsjshssj armys have very drastic takes on this show they did😭😭 some are like yall and understand why they took the hard approach some others just found the whole thing too cringe to watch😭 this show was like a tie-in with some kr broadcast studio and their label to get them some exposure, obviously didnt perform well and they never did another showjlsbsbdhdj atleast the boys got their trip Outta this 😔✊🏻
@@MinSugaCheonjae Oh same😭 like i understand the sentiment they were going with but the execution leaves a lot to be desired 😂 but yeah once was enough for me too
And don't forget trauma as well. They haven't forgotten about the whole kidnapping prank 😭 The show was mostly cringe, but they learned a lot, so I guess that's something. The whole sequence where they had to recruit girls by flirting with them for the MV was so unnecessary and cringe as well. Like...no one does that. And they were obviously very uncomfortable doing it. I feel specifically bad for Suga during the whole MV shoot because he looks like he doesn't want to be there at all. And JK was really young so it's awkward af...
I'm probably going to get hate for this but Coolio acted like a punk here. The guys were just so excited to be in America, in L.A. and let's be real there are soooo many better rappers they could have gotten instead of Coolio.🙄
Also when he barged in and started asking them hip hop questions it wasn't like any of them except for RM spoke or understood English... I know a lot of it was for the show or whatever..but I don't think I've shouted at the screen louder than I did when that show aired originally... RM and Yoongi actually knew a heap about the background of Hip Hop artists..... I wanted to throat punch Coolio hahaha...
To me, it was absolutely PAINFUL the way he treated Taehyung back then, Coolio was abusing his power in the situation were Tae couldn't understand him because of the language, he make him do a "punishment" out of nowhere and even the members look uncomfortable, then he called him a burden and smack his back, you can tell by Tae face he was starting to felt strange and uncomfortable, I'm grateful Taehyung is strong minded and more people in the show appeared to make him confident about his voice and unique character, like Iris♥️ Yeah, I know Coolio is a hit legend and he did great in some aspects to teach them about hip-hop, but his attitude was definitely not the best towards people he didn't know at all, basic respect manners yk?
@@JoSedunary Same! It is called basic respect, it isn't boot camp... and when he said presentation is everything I laughed because dude walks around with his hair looking like a Cindy Lou Who reject 😒
@@v.vlenmf05 100% agree! Tony, Warren G, Nate Dogg, Iris, choreo ppl all awesome, super respectful, but nope Coolio had to be all agressive and disrespectful like he always seemed to be, like dude you don't even know them they were just young and excited like gtf over yourself... when you act like a douche bag to someone like that it just shows your true colors. He isn't legend enough to be even mentioned when people list the great rappers who helped launched rap into what it is... 😒 so yeah Coolio can suck it.🙄
I have to say the 1st episodes of American Hustle Life we’re cringy for reasons that we’re not shown…you would have to watch that series to understand, but once they get through it it’s ok….theres 😢a kidnap scene in the very beginning of it and NO the boys did not know it was a joke at the time…the fandom was kinda split down the middle on this and the treatment of our boys💜💜💜💜with some being ok with it and some not.
@@lowkeymoon23 i thought maybe that too but in a totally separate video they brought this up and Jungkook said I thought I might never see my parents again so I don’t think it was staged or if so maybe one member may have known it was prank but🤷🏻♀️
You keep pointing out the first and economy class do you think 7 people who live in that small a$$ dorm can fly business class bts at that point they weren't making money for themselves they were barely surviving they started making money at the end of 2016 when they started actually rising to the top now they are multi millionaires a member is building a mansion for himself and stuff back then they couldn't even eat meat they were barely eating good and american hustle life was made by mnet (MBC music) like a variety show where bts has to learn hip-hop from the people that created hiphop some scenes were scripted that's what I believe ngl
I hated American Hustle Life and wish you don’t react to that. The boys were scared from some stupid kidnapping prank and I was so angry when that guy made V do push-ups. And another guy who hit Jin. A totally cringy series.

That's okay also thank you for the constant updates! 💜
That's okay but can you please react on kdrama name perfect marriage revenge. It is a great drama and I guarantee that you will absolutely love it
That's okay.. thank you guys for the reaction videos and for the update 💜
I just appreciate that you are truly interested in our boys…a lot are reacting and don’t really have a real interest in them, they talk through things not realizing how much they are missing and clearly just in it for the views. Thankyou again for the respect you are showing 💜💜💜

their first hit song was i need u in 2015 on their 5th album/4th mini album.

You don’t know that. You have to know their investment and properties. Which for Bts they are private, so we don’t know.
@@Letsgetit97 así era antes, esa información se hizo antes del debut en solitario de V, pero ahora V es el ídolo más rico, aunque puede bajar, ya que tae ahora está en el SM
Tony (one of the mentors) has guested on the channel Fo Squad doing reactions to BTS in the last couple of years. It was really cool to hear his thoughts about BTS now. The relationship was impactful for the boys too. They mention Tony and Nate occasionally over the course of their careers.
At that stage they were a no hit wonder😭😭 they had many fans internationally but their korean fanbase was really small. Nothing they did was spoken about by the media because they didn't come from a large company and they couldn't even afford to pay journalists to write articles like many other companies
American Hustle Life really was their first reality show i've ever watched and I instantly liked them and probably the reason why V became my bias until now. I watched this back in 2017.
BTS's two tutors at that time, who were Tony and Nat, were very close to them, and until now Tony and Nat still support BTS, from afar, because they can't see each other because of all the work BTS has now.
I love American hustle life, the guys learnt so much and made friends. It really opened their eyes to what hip hop was in real life and not just rapping about it. You should do the series next, it shows so much more than this short episode.
Nooooo. I just want to say you should NOT do American Hustle Life guys 😂 there are soooooo many better things to watch.
@@priiifrgI feel like this compilation took the most wholesome moments of it
Yeah the boys learned some things but many things were cringe too for them @priiifrg
I hated American Hustle Life and wish you will skip it.
Fairly recently we learned from Suga that they were such zombies out of exhaustion during that reality show that he was seriously thinking of running away right then and there but didn't because they were in america lmao it was one of the thoughest period
V isn't walking around teaching girls how to call "Jimin a fool"🌚
He was fun then
AHL gives me war flashbacks but as BTS did I take all the positive things and all they learned from that experience. I am happy for everything helping them to grow as people and artists. Thanks for your reaction! I feel like your interest keeps growing with each episode and it makes me happy. 💜
American hustle life BTS members learned a lot from their mentors , meet less fortunate people homeless along the streets and those people gave a good advice to BTS members, learned how to create their own music base on their life itself, learned dance and in that they performed free mini concerts for ARMY'S ❤,,, its worth to watch American hustle life episodes.
Please checkout the bonus scenes too
The live performance at the end in the deleted scene is a performance they were practicing for in the beginning when their CEO came in to tell them that they're going to the US..its a cover of a song from another big group. And the one that they were talking on stage its not like a full concert..its their first fan meeting concert and it was before their first full concert which is coming up on the next episode.
Suga is actually an ambassador for the NBA
You should also do the bonus scenes along with the deleted ones every ep has them
A little tid-bit that you may not know, but as you've seen, SUGA loves basketball. SUGA was the Global Ambassador of the NBA for the 2022-2023 season. It was the NBA that reached out to him, too. He did a lot of promos for the NBA. He would catch games whenever he was in the States. The Golden State Warriors even have a Warriors August D (SUGA's alter persona) clothing line. 💜
Seeing Manager Sejin makes me miss him again... He was such a nice person.
I feel like the only good that came out of the hip hop mtv thing is the pile of memes. V dancing to Gangsta’s Paradise in front of Coolio with ponytails was a fever dream and his funniest moment to date imo…
personally this is my least fave ep of the whole series ngl😭 but then the earlier TROB eps are more insights than narrations. it kinda explains why the members act the way they do years later. the constant self doubt, the fear of failing, their desire to be sincere towards their music, their love for the stage regardless etc etc the later eps go faster with their journey since they're fleshing out their characters now .
Appreciate you guys for really diving into BTS, I'm loving this daily vids, you now become part of my daily routine 😅
AHL- i know some Army's don't like it and won't recommend it , I don't love it either but I would still recommend it for you to watch. There are cringey scenes but overall I think the experience were useful to BTS and their growth as artists.
BTS went to LA for a reality show- American Hustle Life. After you finished with The Rise of Bangtan series, I hope you can also react to American Hustle Life. You will learn more what they did and what they have gone through while filming the show.
V and Jungkook so cute 😂❤
I remember,bts so happy see fireworks,but now when bts 10 anniversary, like dynamite shinning in they city of south Korea 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Guys, thanks for your time.
Harris is feeling empathic over BTS, this Is just the start👍🤩
And I'm quite sure that Suga's house is bigger than JK' s apartment (Suga was the one trying to understand the cost instead of enjoying it).
Fun fact about V is that he had previously auditioned for other Agencies but they all told him he couldn't sing. I wonder if that's why he initially chose not to participate in the audition for Big Hit and only went to support his friend until he was asked to by one of the Big Hit Staff. I'm glad he chose too and not to give up on singing. Now look at him, he should be so proud of himself for all of his hard work paying off.
There is a reality series called American Hustle Life which is where most of these clips came from. If you watch the series you will see more of their journey while in LA. I will warn you, the first episode is very cringy but keep watching. They learn so much. While they are recording the reality show they are also working on the Dark and Wild record (in a garage they rented) which is why they are so exhausted.
6:23 They were sooo far from 1st class back then. I’m not sure how Bang PD managed to fund the trip at all!
From what I understood, it was mostly funded by Mnet which is why they were able to go at all. And BTS was the perfect group to send since they were a hip-hop idol group. But it's to be taken with a grain of salt, I'm really not sure about it
Thank you for your awesome reaction 💜 like anything the reality show had good and bad moments but is all apart of their journey. Olus they really got to learn and experience real hiphop culture instead of singing about it.
If I'm not misinformed, their singing tutor, Iris, was the inspiration for the main character in Sister Act.
still feel bad for them tho😭 they clearly invested a bit more for this release and obviously worked twice as hard this time what with shooting this show too at the same time. but the album didnt actually perform well.
i think this trauma stayed with them for years😭
no more dream📈
N.O.📉
Boy In Luv📈
Danger📉
the 📈📉📈📉 of the success of their releases actually made sm impact on their psyches cos theyre NEVER optimistic now😭 every time they have a successful era, they start acting like grandpa's readying for decline cuz they expect the next to fail😭 it's funnier bcos from the next release onwards they only rose 🤓
Thank you guys for these reaction videos.. we're so grateful for the time you take to react to them and for the respect you give to the 7 boys.. we're also grateful that you post these regularly alongside the Deleted scenes and the Bonus content !
The editing in the series just keeps getting better and better each episode, and I'm sure you'll like that 💜
P.S : I don't know if anyone already told y'all previously in the comment section, but the name of each chapter/episode is actually the name of a song in one of their BTS albums, it can either be a solo song by one of the members OR a group song (by the rap unit, the vocal unit or the whole group) !
Love your reactions to The Rise of Bangtan! Can't wait for the Bonus content! :)
I'm 7 years BTS Army's but I Known BTS the only reason for Kim taehyung The brand of BTS Mr. Kim taehyung 🐯💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Honestly I am really enjoying watching you going through this journey.
American Hustle Life (AHL) has a lot of cringe moments, but I think you guys would enjoy it (if you want to watch it on your own, or react to it) and appreciate it's RAWNESS. Granted many situations could have been dealt with better (some things could have been avoided completely) but that level of "bad rawness" there is also the "good rawness" the genuine relationships with the people they met, the fact that the boys really got a very good foundation for everything that was to come and more.
All in all I would think that AHL was a very realistic formative experience, in the sense that it was absolutely NOT all peaches & roses, but had a lot to learn from, and many of this lessons they practice to this day.
More more more!!!
Can’t wait for the next episodes. This series just gets better 💜
Love watching this again with you guys! 💜💜🇲🇽🇲🇽💜💜
Thank you for reactions, that arevalways focused , snd yiu tlrealoy look interested, and soooo fast you give them to us, it makes my day when I see them on my tl. You doing great and don't get burn out, peace yourself how you feel is good for you 😊 see You
thnx for starting this bts journey! We will be here with you throughout this. Can't wait to see more from you. Love that u both pay attention and discuss.
A lot of army say they hate American hustle life but even tho it was cringey i enjoyed it. Y’all should react to it
BTS in LA apart from studying Hip Hop they are also filming "American Hip Hop School" if you want to try the reaction to this show it will definitely be fun, Borahae 💜
As cringe and as harsh as their mentors in America were... I think it did them good. As Coolio said "this is my life" and if BTS want to represent hip-hop then they should learn about it's history.
Jimin and Tony best duo lol
V and Jimin besties
loving watching u guys go through the episodes & learning more about them. they r pretty special 💜
I miss BTS so much🤗😭🫰💜💜
W reactors 🫡💜
yas! thank u guys 💜

Wow 😲😲😲 tnx,salamat,masaya, happy my day is complete true reaction ❤❤❤❤
I really like your reactions guys ...there are so less reactors who really interested in BTS .soo we appreciate you ..good luck ❤
Always enjoy watching with you guys! 💜 Feel free to jump back ◀, if you missed something or it wasn't clear, that's fine. Sometimes things move pretty fast.
Good reaction 💜
Wow thank you! I didn't expect a new episode so soon^^
I like your BTS videos. I watch them on my TV. And it would be much better when you make the video on the big screen, like the Twitch videos, and your cams in the corners. Because when the video is so smal I can not read the subtitles on my TV. 💜🥰💜
love how often you post bts reactions!!
As Chris Martin of coldplay said,
they are different.
Bts is another level.
It is why Chris admire increable music skill and Humble personity of each bts member.

Hmm this fan mettings in delated video were thro year, in america they were like 3 weeks or something so yeah they still did sime things in korea, to show them self, the song at tye rnd was cover thry performed it for some show, it was a way to promote too, tv programs always liked to make some groups to cover older groups... Now young bands cover BTS songs so yeah it is circle...
Plssss react some live performance of BTS💜💜💜
they can all buy a mansion in the US if they wanted. they just got 15 milion for resigning their contracts. and they each have sold a milion albums solo so they have tons of money. their CEO is one of the riches in the country and before BTS the company was about to go under. it´s crazy that BTS build Hybe from ground up. it´s not only albums they sell. the merch too and sponsors pay a lot to do a commercial with them.
but also BTS is koreas tourist attraction so they bring so many money for the country. everyone who know BTS want to travel to korea. no other kpop group can make people travel to korea to see where they grew up and went to school. there is a BTS tour you can go to i really hope i get to go to korea some day. but i am to broke
ahhhhh American Hustle Life ajshsjshssj armys have very drastic takes on this show they did😭😭 some are like yall and understand why they took the hard approach some others just found the whole thing too cringe to watch😭 this show was like a tie-in with some kr broadcast studio and their label to get them some exposure, obviously didnt perform well and they never did another showjlsbsbdhdj atleast the boys got their trip Outta this 😔✊🏻
I definitely found it a bit cringe, but it had its fun moments. I don't want to rewatch it though. Once was enough 😩
@@MinSugaCheonjae Oh same😭 like i understand the sentiment they were going with but the execution leaves a lot to be desired 😂 but yeah once was enough for me too
And don't forget trauma as well. They haven't forgotten about the whole kidnapping prank 😭 The show was mostly cringe, but they learned a lot, so I guess that's something.
The whole sequence where they had to recruit girls by flirting with them for the MV was so unnecessary and cringe as well. Like...no one does that. And they were obviously very uncomfortable doing it. I feel specifically bad for Suga during the whole MV shoot because he looks like he doesn't want to be there at all. And JK was really young so it's awkward af...
You can watch American hustle also
Please react to BTS V meeting an Army
Pls react to the bonus contents with the episode and deleted scene
please update on single's inferno reaction as well
FYI Coolio passed away not long after BTS did this segment.
I believe he passed away in 2022.
@@lizzysmom8899 Do you know what year this Hip Hop reality show was created, by any chance? JK looks really young still in this show.

Reaction to story BTS
Pls react to the bonus contents with the episode and deleted scene
No it is not part of the next episode it is just extra funny contents
Next please react to bts song "Cypher"
I'm probably going to get hate for this but Coolio acted like a punk here. The guys were just so excited to be in America, in L.A. and let's be real there are soooo many better rappers they could have gotten instead of Coolio.🙄
Also when he barged in and started asking them hip hop questions it wasn't like any of them except for RM spoke or understood English... I know a lot of it was for the show or whatever..but I don't think I've shouted at the screen louder than I did when that show aired originally... RM and Yoongi actually knew a heap about the background of Hip Hop artists..... I wanted to throat punch Coolio hahaha...
To me, it was absolutely PAINFUL the way he treated Taehyung back then, Coolio was abusing his power in the situation were Tae couldn't understand him because of the language, he make him do a "punishment" out of nowhere and even the members look uncomfortable, then he called him a burden and smack his back, you can tell by Tae face he was starting to felt strange and uncomfortable, I'm grateful Taehyung is strong minded and more people in the show appeared to make him confident about his voice and unique character, like Iris♥️
Yeah, I know Coolio is a hit legend and he did great in some aspects to teach them about hip-hop, but his attitude was definitely not the best towards people he didn't know at all, basic respect manners yk?
@@JoSedunary Same! It is called basic respect, it isn't boot camp... and when he said presentation is everything I laughed because dude walks around with his hair looking like a Cindy Lou Who reject 😒
@@v.vlenmf05 100% agree! Tony, Warren G, Nate Dogg, Iris, choreo ppl all awesome, super respectful, but nope Coolio had to be all agressive and disrespectful like he always seemed to be, like dude you don't even know them they were just young and excited like gtf over yourself... when you act like a douche bag to someone like that it just shows your true colors. He isn't legend enough to be even mentioned when people list the great rappers who helped launched rap into what it is... 😒 so yeah Coolio can suck it.🙄
I have to say the 1st episodes of American Hustle Life we’re cringy for reasons that we’re not shown…you would have to watch that series to understand, but once they get through it it’s ok….theres 😢a kidnap scene in the very beginning of it and NO the boys did not know it was a joke at the time…the fandom was kinda split down the middle on this and the treatment of our boys💜💜💜💜with some being ok with it and some not.
It might of also been staged so dw
@@lowkeymoon23 i thought maybe that too but in a totally separate video they brought this up and Jungkook said I thought I might never see my parents again so I don’t think it was staged or if so maybe one member may have known it was prank but🤷🏻♀️
Plz react to more BTS songs, if u can react to whole albums of the chapters u watched in this series
You keep pointing out the first and economy class do you think 7 people who live in that small a$$ dorm can fly business class bts at that point they weren't making money for themselves they were barely surviving they started making money at the end of 2016 when they started actually rising to the top now they are multi millionaires a member is building a mansion for himself and stuff back then they couldn't even eat meat they were barely eating good and american hustle life was made by mnet (MBC music) like a variety show where bts has to learn hip-hop from the people that created hiphop some scenes were scripted that's what I believe ngl
Just FYI American Hussle Life has good episodes but the cringiest most uncomfortable and unfortunate first episode. I’m still peeved about it.
I hated American Hustle Life and wish you don’t react to that. The boys were scared from some stupid kidnapping prank and I was so angry when that guy made V do push-ups. And another guy who hit Jin. A totally cringy series.
I remember,bts so happy see fireworks,but now when bts 10 anniversary, like dynamite shinning in they city of south Korea 🎉🎉🎉🎉
