K Media has never supported BTS since the beginning, they never covered their success like other groups from the Big 3. You make a great point that now, BTS surely doesn’t need them at all. Powerful Bangtan.
@@beluuzzzHi. I know you're as disgusted as I am but not sure the boys would want a total boycott of their country. They love Korea enough to serve and protect it. I'm streaming, supporting and spending and praying Suga will come out of this soon. Much love and Borahae!💜💜💜
From the start No Kmedia help BTS not even to mention their name in their article and trying to pull them down while they already struggling Thanks to Bang PD and his loyal staff and hardwork of BTS they surpassed those struggling years
I agree 1000%!! Jealousy is so ugly!! I live by KARMA. We can just sit back and wait to watch it go down and keep supporting our men. Do any ARMY know if we’re helping w Sugas US DOLLARS $15,000. Unbelievable!!
@@christinebaukus8281 because BTS were already growing globally in popularity and becoming a huge name they created their own variety shows, content, and documentaries within the company, in a controlled environment. This protected the members from harmful and damaging portrayal that KMedia could potentially cause. Unfortunately, it has happened to Jungkook in their early years.
The reason why kpopies and knetizens hate them is because they don't operate inside the kpop bubble anymore(especially since dynamite)..they mad coz their faves can't survive outside kpop but BTS is thriving always
Yes, and isn't it funny that many other fandoms criticize BTS for having "sold out" to the West and all the while their groups are trying with all their might to do the exact same thing and they cheer them on for it?
The point about BTS selling out. Sellout from whom? Kpop never embraced them. KPop never claimed them. BTS has always been independent of the KPop machine.
The fact, as you say, that the members want to be together and all speak with such excitement about gathering again in 2025, even when they each have enormous individual success, speaks volumes for them, for their relationship with each other and for their devotion to ARMY. Of course, any genuine fan will always support them whatever path in life they choose but, just for now, my purple heart is almost bursting with anticipation for a BTS world tour.
So very true!!!!! Min Yoongi became my rap line bias after I had to recognize the pure genius of his 2023 D-Day album!!!! Yet, I eagerly await his reunion with his 6 brothers in 2025 as one group, BTS!!!!!! I see 7-1=0, yet I also can not wait for Suga's solo album as Agust D in 2025, Jin's solo album release in early 2025. I loved the solo album releases of each member: Tae's Layover, JHope's album JITB: Hope Edition, Jimin's Face and Muse, and RM's RPWP!!!! If you truly are Army, you accept them all as equally as you can and support their individual works!!!! ****** Edit ****** AND JK's fabulous solo album - Golden!!!!!!!! ****** End of edit *********** Borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

@@nataliacoggins6769 Ha ha!! I knew it was simply an oversight - it happens! I saw the edit! Nice conversing with you. Take care. Borahae and APOBANGPO!
I really believed they paved the way not only to other Korean artists but Asian artists as well. The Fandom they have created is a result of their love to their fans, their craft and their music. They are global artists!
Agreed. Like she said, they've transcended kpop. They're more in line with Beatles, Jackson 5, Michael Jackson, Prince, Whitney Houston , the Motown groups, U2, BonJovi, Coldplay, EWF, Queen,... exceptional global artists.
@@mariamakiling7995 they did pave the way for other Korean artists. They broke boundaries and crossed over to the western market and became HUGE and unfortunately for other KPop idols they are unmatched. BTS set the bar really high
Another notable achievement to prove this point: V and RM were included in the Billboard R&B Honor Roll of 2024! I believe they are the only Asian artists to make it to this list. Proof that these men have transcended not only KPOP but also POP in general. Congratulations V and RM!
This is what RM was talking about at Festa when he said they didn't think it over well before releasing their English language songs, it changed everything for BTS but also changed BTS. There's no going back they've grown into a new genre unto themselves, they have no equal and no competition.
@Cat-Tiger-Taegi-Cult I think things happened because it was meant to happena Fate and Destiny. It was a blessing in disguise when Dynamite and Butter came out and they exploded literally and figuratively. When it was designed by Destiny you can't argue or stop it from happening.
I felt like he was being rough on himself and them when he said that; they admit outright that they simply didn't expect Dynamite and Butter to blow up like they did. Dynamite was supposed to be an ARMY comfort song, and apparently Butter was in a similar nature, doing something fun that was offered them between albums. So saying, 'We didn't think it over well' seems a little harsh. I have a suspicion that what they thought about at the time was whether releasing songs in English would have a *negative* effect- 'They're getting too Westernized, they're abandoning their heritage, they did a bad job with that.' They're humble guys and it wouldn't occur to them to think, 'Oh, maybe this'll be a phenomenal global success that will catapult us right out of K-Pop altogether!'
i agree completely. BTS is now 7 artists in one group so no matter what people do to them they will always thrive. even when bts disband they can go on solo and they can get married take breaks and then come back. i hope they each find a special someone if they want and maybe kids. just the thought of them being lonely breaks my heart. they are at the prime of their lives they should enjoy it. they have a waiting fanbase who will be there when they return
Well said I agree with you. They deserve to live a life of Love Happiness and Family. I have said before my greatest joy would be to see each one of them find their special person to share their lives, and I cant wait to see their smiles and pride as they hold their own children in their arms. Lets face it with their outlook on live. friendship and family who else in this world would make better parents.
Kmedia are upset that they can't control BTS like they have been able to with every other Kpop idol/group. They weren't part of BTS's rise to fame and popularity, and don't contribute to sustaining BTS's success or future. K-media cannot claim any part of the success of the biggest current global group in the world. Instead, BTS proved that success is not determined by the big K-media companies, rather good music, hard work, a good work ethic, and a strong dedicated fanbase cultivated with mutual respect.
All that, and K-media didn't get their cut of the profits, either. That played a big part in why Hitman Bang guided the guys to the internet and started up the RUN episodes; the company couldn't afford to pay for media exposure and slots on variety and music shows. And they act like media exposure is what makes the idols successful, but if it doesn't work and the idol group flops or disbands, they don't care. They got their fee from that group; next!
BTS and the members could literally never promote another song/album in Korea if they don't want to and it would not hurt them at all. They can perform their comebacks on foreign television and award shows. Our K-diamonds will still buy and stream and I-ARMY is not going anywhere.
KMedia was never there for BTS from the beginning..BTS will succeed in whatever way they want..Be it as a group or solo..But even if they don't need each other anymore,they themselves continue to need each other..I think they find themselves more centered and at peace when they are together..
Sk Korean media & others try to break BTS. Bc they think it’s going to get easier for others peoples or groups. Funny bc Army WILL NEVER ABANDON BTS. WE ARE HERE TO PROTECT THEM. BTS IS 7. 💜
BTS staying together is not out of obligation or fear. For they all know everyone can make it on their own. What freedom they must all feel regarding their career as artists. The sky is the limit. TV, movies, etc.. So happy and proud of them. "hugs"
I totally agree with this. Great analysis! I love BTS because they are innovators. Yes, they don’t follow trends becuase they create THE TREND. And most certainly they don’t follow strandards because THEY ARE THE STANDARD! Till your next video! Borahae! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Fanatic army here from South Africa, just miss the boys so much especially their lives but, at least they left us with so much content and Hobie will be out soon joining Jin ❤
I totally agree with your summation. One of the things I like about BTS is the array of genres they cover. At 72 yrs I had never liked Rap, yet my children all did, yet now I love it, mainly BTS Rap but also some other artists as well. They opened my ears to different music. I love the fact that their solo work are all so different, both vocals and rap line. How great is it to get such a variety. The most important factor though is who they are as people and how much of themselves they allow us to see. The love and friendship between them is amazing as is their love for humanity. Their philanthropy and how they bring awareness to the various causes I have never witnessed in over 60 yrs of listening to music and watching artists. They are seven amazing young men who I wish every happiness for as they deserve it. I think the Korean netizens and media and even the other agencies have now seen that as BTS said they have Army behind them. Army is also not just young teenagers but all ages, cultures and professions and stages in life and that I think is another phenomena that I have never seen in 60 years, even with the Beatles. Thank you for always keeping us updated💜
Great commentary. As a 68 yr old USA ARMY I totally agree. There has never been a group that has affected me in the way they have done. It's truly a parasocial relationship. We are bonded for life.
BTS has staunch support by International Army. We recognize their great importance in our lives and will return the same faith and love to them that they have given us.
Not only our their songs and talent excellent, but they are not afraid to buck industry standards and make songs over 3 min. long and guess what, it worked! Their MV are movies, and yet their live videos are every bit as good both in performance and vocals! Their concerts are top tier, and their ARMY joins in and becomes a part of the show. The only others that do that presently are Taylor Swift, and Coldplay! The way they shared their lives from the beginning, their hard work, their joy, the pain of being bullied and watching them work through it, the message, excellent lyrics, and maybe even not the most important, their performance art and legendary charisma, these are the reasons ARMY is so strong, and BTS is strong because of ARMY. I think the duality between the entertainment companies and the same companies owning the K pop media has shown through all of this to be at the root of K -pop celebrity scandal. Also Korea's ridiculously high Idol standards are hurting the industry. Putting too much value on skin tone, facial perfection, and skin and bone artists is not only unreasonable, but unhealthy in the extreme. Koreans, like every other race, have beautiful people and those not as beautiful and to judge people by these standards does a disservice to both Koreans in general, and the K=pop industry as a whole IMHO. Not to mention severely unhealthy both physically and mentally. BTS understands this, does not promote it, and is so supportive of all good humans. Don't believe me, that's ok, but maybe you can judge by the wonderful humans that support them I have had first hand connections with members of their ARMY in several unexpected places and have always been greeted with kindness, hugs, and tolerance for a 70 yr old white woman who is a bit round, has age spots, only speaks English, and wears no make-up any longer, LOL. In fact I would say I love ARMY's as much as I love the boys, who can say that about any fandom! BTS doesn't need rigged awards to prove their talent, they have a super global fan base of good humans. And YOU, beautiful lady, are one of them. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 💜
It’s so interesting. Because if the media was trying to cancel BTS, and then it was impossible, that’s quite a feat. And I’m not surprised. They are very special and so is ARMY.
I think that a lot of people who don’t bother to look deeply into their music see them as nothing but a really popular idol group. What everyone is missing is that their level of artistry is unmatched in the popular music industry and that appeals to a more educated audience who becomes very invested in seeing them succeed because they’re proving that the genre can be elevated to this level. K-pop companies think it’s just the marketing without realizing you need substance in order to maintain the momentum once the marketing reaches the audience. I don’t need any marketing from bighit to be extremely curious about everything the boys put out because I know it will be intelligent, well thought out and released with purpose.
Substance, that's it. Boracity said much the same thing: idol groups are about the flashy show they can put on. The visuals, the effects, the choreo, the catchy lyrics- the show. And she said, there's nothing wrong with that, but with BTS it's different. They can put on as good a show as anyone else- better, in some cases- but when you take away the flash and the catchy and just line them up to sing or rap, they still kill it. Great vocals, great rap, great dance, great lyrics, interesting ideas, fantastic wordplay and meaningful messaged. They're so *articulate* through their music.
*By being Ambassadors for humanitarian causes, to help those who have had dark moments in their life and doing the music from the ground up with writing, choreography all their own these have been their strong points to gain so many people all over the world what K-pop bands have not done for that BTS transcends everything that It's connected at Korea and k-pop.*
*Completely unrelated* ; but can we have a minute of silence to remember the late James Earl Jones 😔 🕊 🙏 If for nothing else, he will vividly be remembered for his deep iconic baritone voice ... RIP Mufasa 🕊 RIP Darth Vader 🕊
"How were they being allowed to directly communicate with their fans and why would they even do that?" Because love is a direct connection to and experience of who or what is one's soul's companion through the journey of life.
My opinion...people are threatened by what they perceive as BTS' "power." However, those people fail to realize that BTS has never cultivated or wielded power. BTS has promoted love, humility, artistry, and community. Those endure and sustain BTS and ARMY through good times and bad. Power is fickle. BTS is a globally loved group who happens to live in SK. Thank you for this confirmation of what I knew and couldn't quite put into words.
K Media needs to grow up and give credit to anyone who becomes a successful entrepreneur and build people up instead of tearing them down. In the end they too have benefitted.
I think it goes back to power. They have huge power in the model and here comes a band which doesn't follow the rules of the model and on which they don't have power. Power is very heady.
Actually, K-media haven't benefited nearly as much from BTS as they have from other idol groups. That's part of why they resent BTS so much. Typically, the way to success for an idol group is to pay large amounts of money to get TV/radio interviews and show slots. That's part of why the Big Three, who had the funds to buy up lots of slots, kept dominating the industry. Hitman Bang stopped sending the guys to variety and music shows and other media events. The company couldn't afford it, and he didn't like how the boys were treated. So they got on the internet and made their own variety show- RUN BTS- and stopped trying to get their exposure 'the usual way'. K-media lost out on a lot of income when BTS started to get big by themselves, and they still resent it.
I stopped listening to other K-pop artists altogether. After the last year, K-pop fans and the K-pop Industry completely disgusted me. I was already only listening to a few songs here and there but I want nothing to do with it anymore. I can easily support Bangtan without caring about K-pop at all BTS went above and beyond - they give me all the variety and quality I seek. '19th Greatest Pop Icon of the 21st Century' and 'Best National Singer of the 21st Century' for a reason. They never needed the K-pop Industry and it's not gonna start now
Always look forward to watching your channel. We all know and our boys know that each one of them can stand on their own no doubt about that. They also know we love them together performing and support them whole heartedly. They love being together and the bond that they have formed is too strong to break. My magnificent SEVEN
Aren't they already "global"? Also, why are Kfans so offended and irritated about them being global and incredibly popular outside of Korea. This is a good thing, no?
@lawaanjaideelyon1890 That's stupid. Why do they care? It's also the fairweather kfans as well. They are the most spoiled doted upon part of the fandom, and they act like spoiled brats.
@@faith6833it bothers kmedia because Bts has mess with their power ,influence and money. Bts literally made a way when kmedia block them and treated them so unkind.yet Bts thrive despite that.Bts has become very powerful but they do a lot to keep Bts from thinking they are really the big boys now. Be sure to watch the videos on how bts was treated by kmedia and that will help you to understand why Army.is so protective of them and why kmedia and other kpop Fandom hate them .
The sad thing when I think about what you said is that among the idols there must be artists whose talent is wasted because they are stuck in the model BTS managed to escape (with lot of work and a little bit of luck of not being constrained by their agency).
Part of the problem is the agency they are signed with. Not that that can't happen to you in the USA for example, too. See for example Megan thee Stallion.
BTS has grown into a collective rather than a boyband. As for the kmedia, they can go hand themselves. They've done their damnedest to push down/invalidate BTS and their achievements to no avail. Time to sink back into their little well and let BTS shine in the world stage where they belong.
Would have clicked a thumbs up on your comments if you hadn’t said “get a girl”. I think many fans, including me, think that they should have love with whomever they choose. Plus in many, many places around the world kids are possible to any loving couple. South Korea has more conservative rules concerning adoption, surrogacy, etc. so maybe they will choose to leave Korea to get the personal life they want for themselves! It would be a shame for Korea to push them away.
Not just any girl. Someone who will respect and love them truly as they are and not because they are famous and rich. I hope all of them will find their love and will have a happy married life. My boys deserve happiness.
Thank God for International ARMYs. It seems like if it were left up to K-netizens, Suga would have been destroyed. I don’t believe in “You don’t understand our laws.” “You don’t understand the problems we have with scooters” “You don’t understand how serious a DUI is.” What we don’t understand is how bullying and humiliating someone is allowed to go as far as it did without any pushback. I’ll repeat thank God for International ARMYs (and those K-ARMY who supported Suga).
What we really don't understand is why K-media is permitted to broadcast known lies. We despise a lack of journalistic integrity whether we find it in our own nation, or another nation.
@@ystrw Yes, that is true in the US as well. When lies become truth and truth becomes lies, we can no longer believe in anything. But we did believe in Suga, his no-bulls**t character, his integrity, and his ability to take responsibility for his actions. I only hope that K-media learned an important lesson about truth in reporting - and the power of ARMY who is watching them.
Always and Forever Army Love, Support, Unity and Trust BTS 7! Much Love, Wellness and Continued Blessings to BTS! Shame on KMedia for their "Fake Love" towards BTS and Yoongi! 🙋🏽♀️🤗😍😘😂👏🏽🕺🏽🎶🎤👑🥇💜💞✌🏽🙏🏽🇺🇸 #BTSIs7 #TheStatement7 #GlobalArmyUnionBTSIs7 #BTSPurpleRibbonProject2024
Benar sekali BTS bukanlah Kpop, atau BTS adalah Kpop without K. BTS membuat peta kesuksesanya sendiri tanpa bantuan K media. Army dan Bts adalah satu kesatuan yg tak mungkin terpisahkan. Mereka berusaha mencari the next Bts tapi tetep aja "jauh panggang dari api". Yg bisa melampaui Bts ya Bts itu sendiri. Aku bukan penggemar kpop , aku cuma tau Bts , aku tidak mengenal grup selain Bts, dan aku emang ga bisa pindah ke lain hati...😊😊😊. Trims atas ulasannya JENG.🙏✌️
I've read the fine will be $10k. I'm not sure if that is correct, but if so... While Suga can well afford that and the 88000% increase in sales means we have paid it for him already.... That is ridiculous!!! I understand that some say that it needs to be higher when it's a person such as an idol who is "rich". That seems rather discriminatory. Usually there are legal guidelines for fines such as this that sets a minimum and maximum. I have to wonder if ANYONE has ever paid that much for galling off a scooter due to a sharp turn. It's crazy.
I like your channel a lot. Full of insights and affection. intellectually delicious! Classy 👍 Your voice and intonation are also very nice to listen to. I appreciate and applaud your work!😘
You covered this FACT several times!!! But it's good for the reminder on why K-media hates BTS with a passion on full display for the entire world to see!!!! BTS made K-media irrelevant, as you've clearly stated!!!! BTS Armys ensured the entire world saw just how irrelevant K-media is!!!!! The Suga incident will free AND, once again, PAVE THE WAY for all Kpop artists!!!! They will no longer be beholden to K-media, as long as they remain true to themselves and to their fandom!!!!! 🥰🥰😍😍🥰🥰 Borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 one purple heart for EACH member of BTS!!!
Hi, Imo I don't think any other Kpop Fandom would back their group up like Army's Do! Bts and Army Imo have always had a different relationship. They (other fandoms) spend more time hating on Bts when they should spend their time supporting their favorite group...✌💜
@@Mbella354 Very true about many fandoms; however, I had a nice experience with Stays a few months before the Suga incident! I saw a video about Stray Kids reaction to Daechwita. SKZ were being disrespectful and not watching it and fooling around laughing apparently in bad and mocking imitation of Suga! I posted that as an Army, I was disheartened by their actions and if true it was sad to view! Well, a Stray responded this was actually from a video SKZ had posted elsewhere! I replied that WE needed to stand together and report this video en masse as false!!! Well, within 24 hours the video was removed from the Internet. I believe that we can work with some people from other fandoms! We just need to do it in a respectful manner.
Thanks for your analysis. I am late to BTS fandom but I am totally convinced. There is so much variety and creativity in their music. And I love to watch them dance. Their talent and hard work is clear. And they are so fun!
Curious to understand how foreign charts changed the rules to alienate kpop groups? I'm guessing the amount of sales no longer carries the same weight. Can someone explain? Thanks!
I can talk about Billboard. Billboard has sales, radio play and streaming that count towards the charts. When ARMY learned this and started buying more, then Billboard started decreasing the value of sales and changed the rules constantly. Such as you can only buy 4 of the same downloads from the account to count in a week instead of unlimited. Then it changed to one download a week per account. Next, changes were made on where you could buy the albums from to count for the charts. ARMY started streaming more and learning how to stream. Each streaming platform is different and you have to get people that have IP addresses in the country to stream. ARMY got fan clubs in the country and raise money to buy and stream. The hardest thing to break into in the U.S. is radio play. Many U.S. radio stations will not play non English songs or English songs from non English speakers. Slowly ARMY is gaining traction. Who just got his highest ranking on Billboard Pop Airplay at #30. There is more. Hope this helps.
basically they put more wieght of USA Radio play which is bought and paid for illegally. So that nearly everything that's played on USA radio has got there because the artist's label have done illegal deals with the Radio companies.
Yeah, as Eileen is saying, BB and radio are in a kind of double handshake. To get played on US radio, a label now pays for air-time; they literally pay to get on the radio's playlist. The more the label pays, the more spins they get. The more spins, the higher the song will chart on BB. Billboard officially counts spins, streams and sales, but they make radio play the most weighted of the three, something like 60 or 70%. So when BTS makes it to the Hot 100 chart, it's always due to major sales and streams, and very little radio play (except for Butter.) Six major corporations own all of the radio channels in the US. So they aren't the least bit interested in what listeners want to hear, they're only interested in wringing out the maximum profit by boosting popular musical stars and getting their cut. And BB is perfectly happy to go along with it. BB's parent company is the Penske Media Corporation. Which owns Variety, Hollywood Reporter, Rolling Stone, Golden Globe Awards, American Country Music Awards, AMA's, Dick Clark's New Year's Eve, and 34 other major magazines or award shows. Talk about having a stranglehold on the industry...
💜 old army here lol…been army for 5 years …from philadelphia USA …this scooter-gate IS DUMB!!! i hate when people say “DUI” he wasn’t driving!!! he was riding a scooter …you don’t drive a scooter you ride it …there was no DUI
Dear Fairlane, I absolutely in awe of your eloquency. You can express yourself so well and as a fellow non-native english speaker I just admire you. As for Today's content it is now demonstrated to every sceptical or dilusional person wherever they live on this globe that BTS and ARMY are a community based on mutual love and respect. I think this whole phenomenon is unheard of and for many difficult to comprehend. How ARMY all over the world organises walks, purple illuminations, charting songs, expressing their love and suppprt for Yoongi and the boys...all this is just magnificent. And I am so happy to be part of it.
Great video as always. Am going to pass it on to some friends who don't really understand my involvement as an Army nor the great talent I am following. Thanks again.
I'm so upset by this....they should be proud of them. They are promoting their country and spreading such a positive message to the world and they can't get over the fact they did this all on their own? Seriously?
So proud of our smart , hardworking, loving and caring worldwide BangtanArmy family 🥹💜🫂 All my love and respect to our K-Diamonds and our veteran Army 💜 Apobangpo borahae
Great video, good analysis as usual, quite a few videos coming up lately - loving it, feeling so spoiled! You might want to talk to a sound engineer so your microphone can focus just on your voice and no ambiance sounds. Just a tiny improvement that might help you heaps, esp for the hard of hearing.
BTS has always been this global. They have never really been Kpop from the beginning. Kpop just don’t know what that means UNTIL NOW. Throughout this fiasco we realise they treat ARMY like Kpop fans. Expecting ARMY to behave like Kpop fans. Believing ARMY to have the socio demographics of Kpop fans. The emotional and intellectual maturity of Kpop fans. The crabs in the bucket too busy taking each other down to die at the bottom of the bucket instead of lifting each other up and free themselves, to do a reality check. And even THEN, after the world outside of their bubble broke the news, after we muggles told them hey one of yours entered our world and conquered it, when the others who came before them are stuck in a corner of our room because we ignored them because they didn’t appeal to us because they weren’t good enough, they still refuse to accept the reality that BTS is BTS. And ARMY is ARMY. BTS isn’t kpop that is WHY they succeed where all their seniors in kpop failed. BTS PAVED THE WAY. The rest can keep their “firsts” in their little kpop bubble no one cares about. So many to rant about. So little time.
BTS never had any help from the K Media or any other 'agency', other Korean artists/celebrities included but they all wanna be in their circle now. 🙄 They were alone and picked on when they went on other shows. I will never forget the hurt in JK's eyes when those guys refused his genuine offer of food.. grown men trying to belittle a child. I could go on but we all know the story of them making their own way and lighting the path so that others and their ever growing ARMY could follow. I get choked up thinking about their struggle & where they are now. I am still learning more and more as time goes by. I have never been part of a fandom or cared enough about a group like I have with BTS. That's not to say I haven't enjoyed some of their music etc but never like I love BTS. They are good humans first, brothers, artists, and let's not forget wonderfully chaotic. I could ramble on but I won't xD I so much appreciate your educated perspective on things. Sometimes there's soooo much drama haters are trying to spread and sometimes just honest misinformation. Thank for always being kind. You always have my respect. I 💜you
BTS to artyści a tym zawsze więcej wolno bo tworząc sztukę działają na emocjach, najpierw wykorzystują swoje by dać je nam w innej formie. O BTS będą prace magisterskie i doktoranckie bo to nie tylko zespół, to zjawisko kulturowe. Cieszę się, że ARMY to nie tylko te skłócone ze sobą grupy wysyłkowe ale społeczność dorównująca intelektualnie wspieranej grupie muzycznej. To daje nadzieję, że pomimo różnic językowych, kulturowych, narodowościowych jest coś lub ktoś co może ludzi jednoczyć do wspólnego działania jak wsparcie, obrona czy wyniesienia w górę. To jest niezwykłe. Nie chcę bluźnić ale to prawie jak religia. Sama łapię się na tym, że mój dzień zaczyna i kończy się z BTS.
The korean citizens have never understood how BTS made it and still do not know the impact of these guys. I watch street interview of Koreans talking about bts and K-pop, and I always wonder if they are living under the rock when it comes to BTS impact and achievement or they just do not want to acknowledge it The lack of cooperation in the K-pop industry is one of the reasons why the industry seems to be going in circles when it comes to relevance and recognition. If you can't appreciate your own stars and limit breakers in your country(BTS), why do you think the West will give you any real opportunity Make it make sense 🤔
most don't know about BTS in South Korea as they are not reported on the say way as those from kpop companies that pay the media for good stories about their artist. They big up small wins of kpop artists and either totally ignore or at best downplay the big achievements of BTS.
Army here from wales I’m so proud to be apart of this fandom and bts saved music for me back the end of 2020 was having a hard time during the pandemic and after trying to find a job ect. However, since discovery in BTS in 2020 they brought a smile to my face every time I watch one BTS run episodes or a bon voyage and bts in the soop of there’s they made me appreciate music again but in in a different way and I will be an army till the day I die borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Most kpop companies want quick hits and streams then debut 20 new groups in search of more new shiny hits instead of being patient, taking risks, and consistent building of idol careers over the years. Most idols are just products, easily replaced unfortunately. Currently GGs are only focused on looks and tiktok trending fast instead of actual art of music..they have almost no longevity
My wish and Visualisation is : very soon to read "Helko, This is Bighit..." where pronouncing officialy that BTS are NOT to be considered (korean) IDOLS anymore, but WORLD ARTISTS as BTS ARE NOW !! Lets hope they will get out of the stigma of being IDOL, so the local Korean Media cannot even think of addresing them with disrespect or fiasco scandals. APOBANGPO💜💪
Hi, muy buenos comentarios. Soy nueva con BTS, apenas poco más de dos años. Algo que he notado es que ellos fueron reconocidos en occidente. He visto varias veces viejas filmaciones y verlos decir que les parecía increíble que en occidente tenían tantos fans cuando en Corea no era igual (calculo que en Corea les restaba trascendencia la política de medios alineada a las grandes empresas de kpop). Lo segundo es que, al contrario de lo que la lógica indica, mientras peor tratan a BTS como grupo o como individuos más provocan a sus fans en su real compromiso de protegerlos y no es por fanatismo ciego sino porque sin importar el tiempo en que los conozcan han creado lazos reales con ellos y la autenticidad mutua que se ha creado donde no es que se les perdone todo sino que se sabe que son muy honestos y son los primeros en reconocer sus errores por lo que, en base a la experiencia desde que BTS nació, no necesitan que les digan o mientan sobre quienes son los jóvenes de BTS, ARMY los conoce y ninguna campaña logra cambiar la esencia del conocimiento de ARMY hacia BTS. Ellos junto a sus fans han logrado vencer el poder de los medios y de los poderosos que visiblemente tratan de derrocarlos del podio humano, humilde, talentoso y comprometido que BTS ha conseguido a fuerza de autenticidad y desapego a esos mismos medios. No implica que BTS y ARMY no sufran cada embate sino que, cada embate hace más fuerte el lazo y la simbiosis de esta dupla que parece haber escrito su camino en piedra y no en el volátil y frágil sendero de quienes se sienten demasiado poderosos pero que indefectiblemente terminan marginados de esta gran y mundial base de fans sumamente leales. Un abrazo y hasta tu próximo vídeo. Saludos desde Argentina, Betty de 54 años. /// Una de las fortalezas más grandes de BTS y ARMY es que han creado su propio universo que no necesita del poder que digita voluntades para existir y esto, para estos poderosos es la mayor amenaza a sus delirios de manejar mediáticamente voluntades. BTS y ARMY son un paradigma que muchos no logran comprender y por eso les temen.
To replicate the success of BTS, they need a loyal fanbase like ARMY. To replicate a fanbase like ARMY, they need to have a geniuine, talented and artistic group like BTS. It goes full circle. Tthere are a lot of elements like personality, sincerely towards music and art, dedication for growth, communication and a lot more the reason as to why and how BTS and ARMY are an irreplicable solid team. Good luck with finding the next BTS.
K Media has never supported BTS since the beginning, they never covered their success like other groups from the Big 3. You make a great point that now, BTS surely doesn’t need them at all. Powerful Bangtan.
@@beluuzzzHi. I know you're as disgusted as I am but not sure the boys would want a total boycott of their country. They love Korea enough to serve and protect it. I'm streaming, supporting and spending and praying Suga will come out of this soon.
Much love and Borahae!💜💜💜
@@beluuzzz correct, it'd be better to just boy cott the k-media.
From the start No Kmedia help BTS not even to mention their name in their article and trying to pull them down while they already struggling Thanks to Bang PD and his loyal staff and hardwork of BTS they surpassed those struggling years
I agree 1000%!! Jealousy is so ugly!! I live by KARMA. We can just sit back and wait to watch it go down and keep supporting our men. Do any ARMY know if we’re helping w Sugas US DOLLARS $15,000. Unbelievable!!
@@christinebaukus8281 because BTS were already growing globally in popularity and becoming a huge name they created their own variety shows, content, and documentaries within the company, in a controlled environment. This protected the members from harmful and damaging portrayal that KMedia could potentially cause. Unfortunately, it has happened to Jungkook in their early years.
The reason why kpopies and knetizens hate them is because they don't operate inside the kpop bubble anymore(especially since dynamite)..they mad coz their faves can't survive outside kpop but BTS is thriving always
Well said
@@beluuzzzso right. You nailed it. My sentiments too.
K haters should just give up on trying to take down BTS there’s no point…they will be over shadowed by the global ARMY.
Yes, and isn't it funny that many other fandoms criticize BTS for having "sold out" to the West and all the while their groups are trying with all their might to do the exact same thing and they cheer them on for it?
The point about BTS selling out. Sellout from whom? Kpop never embraced them. KPop never claimed them. BTS has always been independent of the KPop machine.
The fact, as you say, that the members want to be together and all speak with such excitement about gathering again in 2025, even when they each have enormous individual success, speaks volumes for them, for their relationship with each other and for their devotion to ARMY. Of course, any genuine fan will always support them whatever path in life they choose but, just for now, my purple heart is almost bursting with anticipation for a BTS world tour.
So very true!!!!! Min Yoongi became my rap line bias after I had to recognize the pure genius of his 2023 D-Day album!!!! Yet, I eagerly await his reunion with his 6 brothers in 2025 as one group, BTS!!!!!! I see 7-1=0, yet I also can not wait for Suga's solo album as Agust D in 2025, Jin's solo album release in early 2025. I loved the solo album releases of each member: Tae's Layover, JHope's album JITB: Hope Edition, Jimin's Face and Muse, and RM's RPWP!!!! If you truly are Army, you accept them all as equally as you can and support their individual works!!!!

I really believed they paved the way not only to other Korean artists but Asian artists as well. The Fandom they have created is a result of their love to their fans, their craft and their music. They are global artists!
Agreed. Like she said, they've transcended kpop. They're more in line with Beatles, Jackson 5, Michael Jackson, Prince, Whitney Houston , the Motown groups, U2, BonJovi, Coldplay, EWF, Queen,... exceptional global artists.
@@mariamakiling7995 they did pave the way for other Korean artists. They broke boundaries and crossed over to the western market and became HUGE and unfortunately for other KPop idols they are unmatched. BTS set the bar really high
BTS become a brand itself.
Another notable achievement to prove this point: V and RM were included in the Billboard R&B Honor Roll of 2024! I believe they are the only Asian artists to make it to this list. Proof that these men have transcended not only KPOP but also POP in general. Congratulations V and RM!

Hi Sydney, Perth, n Adelaide x 2, Central Coast- N.S.W here.
The timing of this video! BTS named 19th greatest Popstar of the 21st century!
This is what RM was talking about at Festa when he said they didn't think it over well before releasing their English language songs, it changed everything for BTS but also changed BTS. There's no going back they've grown into a new genre unto themselves, they have no equal and no competition.
I don't think anybody could've predicted it.
Yes, we knew that they were good. But objectively?
This is a once in a lifetime event.
@Cat-Tiger-Taegi-Cult I think things happened because it was meant to happena Fate and Destiny.
It was a blessing in disguise when Dynamite and Butter came out and they exploded literally and figuratively. When it was designed by Destiny you can't argue or stop it from happening.
I felt like he was being rough on himself and them when he said that; they admit outright that they simply didn't expect Dynamite and Butter to blow up like they did. Dynamite was supposed to be an ARMY comfort song, and apparently Butter was in a similar nature, doing something fun that was offered them between albums. So saying, 'We didn't think it over well' seems a little harsh.
I have a suspicion that what they thought about at the time was whether releasing songs in English would have a *negative* effect- 'They're getting too Westernized, they're abandoning their heritage, they did a bad job with that.' They're humble guys and it wouldn't occur to them to think, 'Oh, maybe this'll be a phenomenal global success that will catapult us right out of K-Pop altogether!'
i agree completely. BTS is now 7 artists in one group so no matter what people do to them they will always thrive. even when bts disband they can go on solo and they can get married take breaks and then come back. i hope they each find a special someone if they want and maybe kids. just the thought of them being lonely breaks my heart. they are at the prime of their lives they should enjoy it. they have a waiting fanbase who will be there when they return
Nie układaj im życia. Oni sami sobie ułożą.
Well said I agree with you. They deserve to live a life of Love Happiness and Family. I have said before my greatest joy would be to see each one of them find their special person to share their lives, and I cant wait to see their smiles and pride as they hold their own children in their arms. Lets face it with their outlook on live. friendship and family who else in this world would make better parents.
Kmedia are upset that they can't control BTS like they have been able to with every other Kpop idol/group. They weren't part of BTS's rise to fame and popularity, and don't contribute to sustaining BTS's success or future. K-media cannot claim any part of the success of the biggest current global group in the world. Instead, BTS proved that success is not determined by the big K-media companies, rather good music, hard work, a good work ethic, and a strong dedicated fanbase cultivated with mutual respect.
All that, and K-media didn't get their cut of the profits, either. That played a big part in why Hitman Bang guided the guys to the internet and started up the RUN episodes; the company couldn't afford to pay for media exposure and slots on variety and music shows. And they act like media exposure is what makes the idols successful, but if it doesn't work and the idol group flops or disbands, they don't care. They got their fee from that group; next!
#BTSxARMY has now become an institution by itself, bigger than Bighit and Hybe, larger than KPop.
I’m so proud to be part of this fan community. Army is truly a phenomenon as is BTS. Borahae!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Borahae💜🫂💜
BTS and the members could literally never promote another song/album in Korea if they don't want to and it would not hurt them at all. They can perform their comebacks on foreign television and award shows. Our K-diamonds will still buy and stream and I-ARMY is not going anywhere.
KMedia was never there for BTS from the beginning..BTS will succeed in whatever way they want..Be it as a group or solo..But even if they don't need each other anymore,they themselves continue to need each other..I think they find themselves more centered and at peace when they are together..
Sk Korean media & others try to break BTS. Bc they think it’s going to get easier for others peoples or groups. Funny bc Army WILL NEVER ABANDON BTS. WE ARE HERE TO PROTECT THEM. BTS IS 7. 💜
Absolutely, when BTS/members decide to stop making music, than I am done with kpop.

A smile formed on my face as you talked about them ascending after 10 years. 💜 how can we not love them? When they are such wonderful humans. 💜
Fanatic army here from South Africa, just miss the boys so much especially their lives but, at least they left us with so much content and Hobie will be out soon joining Jin ❤
Hi fellow South African!
Wish they could come here, but where will they perform??
I totally agree with your summation. One of the things I like about BTS is the array of genres they cover. At 72 yrs I had never liked Rap, yet my children all did, yet now I love it, mainly BTS Rap but also some other artists as well. They opened my ears to different music. I love the fact that their solo work are all so different, both vocals and rap line. How great is it to get such a variety.
The most important factor though is who they are as people and how much of themselves they allow us to see. The love and friendship between them is amazing as is their love for humanity. Their philanthropy and how they bring awareness to the various causes I have never witnessed in over 60 yrs of listening to music and watching artists. They are seven amazing young men who I wish every happiness for as they deserve it.
I think the Korean netizens and media and even the other agencies have now seen that as BTS said they have Army behind them. Army is also not just young teenagers but all ages, cultures and professions and stages in life and that I think is another phenomena that I have never seen in 60 years, even with the Beatles. Thank you for always keeping us updated💜
Hi ! I'm 64 yrs, and I totally agree with everything you said from start to finish 😀😀
Great commentary. As a 68 yr old USA ARMY I totally agree. There has never been a group that has affected me in the way they have done. It's truly a parasocial relationship. We are bonded for life.
Agree 100%. 65 year old from US. Music is my life. With BTS, it's another level. Army you know what I mean. Borahae 💜Apobangpo
No other group can do what BTS has done and these other groups need to realize that. Period. Its time for you haters to sit down and shut up.
Suga was how I found bts. Love hip hop and love bts too. But bts is worldwide! No one close. They are on top
BTS has staunch support by International Army. We recognize their great importance in our lives and will return the same faith and love to them that they have given us.
BTS has transcened KPOP- this title is spot on.
Not only our their songs and talent excellent, but they are not afraid to buck industry standards and make songs over 3 min. long and guess what, it worked! Their MV are movies, and yet their live videos are every bit as good both in performance and vocals! Their concerts are top tier, and their ARMY joins in and becomes a part of the show. The only others that do that presently are Taylor Swift, and Coldplay!
The way they shared their lives from the beginning, their hard work, their joy, the pain of being bullied and watching them work through it, the message, excellent lyrics, and maybe even not the most important, their performance art and legendary charisma, these are the reasons ARMY is so strong, and BTS is strong because of ARMY.
I think the duality between the entertainment companies and the same companies owning the K pop media has shown through all of this to be at the root of K -pop celebrity scandal. Also Korea's ridiculously high Idol standards are hurting the industry. Putting too much value on skin tone, facial perfection, and skin and bone artists is not only unreasonable, but unhealthy in the extreme. Koreans, like every other race, have beautiful people and those not as beautiful and to judge people by these standards does a disservice to both Koreans in general, and the K=pop industry as a whole IMHO. Not to mention severely unhealthy both physically and mentally. BTS understands this, does not promote it, and is so supportive of all good humans. Don't believe me, that's ok, but maybe you can judge by the wonderful humans that support them I have had first hand connections with members of their ARMY in several unexpected places and have always been greeted with kindness, hugs, and tolerance for a 70 yr old white woman who is a bit round, has age spots, only speaks English, and wears no make-up any longer, LOL. In fact I would say I love ARMY's as much as I love the boys, who can say that about any fandom! BTS doesn't need rigged awards to prove their talent, they have a super global fan base of good humans. And YOU, beautiful lady, are one of them. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 💜
It’s so interesting. Because if the media was trying to cancel BTS, and then it was impossible, that’s quite a feat. And I’m not surprised. They are very special and so is ARMY.
Korean media in regards to BTS is obsolete.
I think that a lot of people who don’t bother to look deeply into their music see them as nothing but a really popular idol group. What everyone is missing is that their level of artistry is unmatched in the popular music industry and that appeals to a more educated audience who becomes very invested in seeing them succeed because they’re proving that the genre can be elevated to this level. K-pop companies think it’s just the marketing without realizing you need substance in order to maintain the momentum once the marketing reaches the audience. I don’t need any marketing from bighit to be extremely curious about everything the boys put out because I know it will be intelligent, well thought out and released with purpose.
Substance, that's it. Boracity said much the same thing: idol groups are about the flashy show they can put on. The visuals, the effects, the choreo, the catchy lyrics- the show. And she said, there's nothing wrong with that, but with BTS it's different. They can put on as good a show as anyone else- better, in some cases- but when you take away the flash and the catchy and just line them up to sing or rap, they still kill it. Great vocals, great rap, great dance, great lyrics, interesting ideas, fantastic wordplay and meaningful messaged. They're so *articulate* through their music.
*By being Ambassadors for humanitarian causes, to help those who have had dark moments in their life and doing the music from the ground up with writing, choreography all their own these have been their strong points to gain so many people all over the world what K-pop bands have not done for that BTS transcends everything that It's connected at Korea and k-pop.*
Thank you for your hard work and dedication to telling us the truth ethically! That means a lot to us! 💜
Thank you for this wonderful video. BTS and ARMY are amazing. BTS members are, besides talented artists, individually and together, loveable.
*Completely unrelated* ; but can we have a minute of silence to remember the late James Earl Jones 😔 🕊 🙏

"How were they being allowed to directly communicate with their fans and why would they even do that?"

My opinion...people are threatened by what they perceive as BTS' "power." However, those people fail to realize that BTS has never cultivated or wielded power. BTS has promoted love, humility, artistry, and community. Those endure and sustain BTS and ARMY through good times and bad. Power is fickle. BTS is a globally loved group who happens to live in SK. Thank you for this confirmation of what I knew and couldn't quite put into words.
and that is BTS power it's not in money, strong arming and being all nice and grovelling to the SK media. It's soft power.
@@eileencritchley4630 Yes!
K Media needs to grow up and give credit to anyone who becomes a successful entrepreneur and build people up instead of tearing them down. In the end they too have benefitted.
I think it goes back to power. They have huge power in the model and here comes a band which doesn't follow the rules of the model and on which they don't have power. Power is very heady.
Actually, K-media haven't benefited nearly as much from BTS as they have from other idol groups. That's part of why they resent BTS so much.
Typically, the way to success for an idol group is to pay large amounts of money to get TV/radio interviews and show slots. That's part of why the Big Three, who had the funds to buy up lots of slots, kept dominating the industry.
Hitman Bang stopped sending the guys to variety and music shows and other media events. The company couldn't afford it, and he didn't like how the boys were treated. So they got on the internet and made their own variety show- RUN BTS- and stopped trying to get their exposure 'the usual way'. K-media lost out on a lot of income when BTS started to get big by themselves, and they still resent it.
I stopped listening to other K-pop artists altogether. After the last year, K-pop fans and the K-pop Industry completely disgusted me. I was already only listening to a few songs here and there but I want nothing to do with it anymore. I can easily support Bangtan without caring about K-pop at all
BTS went above and beyond - they give me all the variety and quality I seek. '19th Greatest Pop Icon of the 21st Century' and 'Best National Singer of the 21st Century' for a reason. They never needed the K-pop Industry and it's not gonna start now
Thank you for always putting things in perspective and stating it logically. I value your insights into the industry.
Always look forward to watching your channel. We all know and our boys know that each one of them can stand on their own no doubt about that. They also know we love them together performing and support them whole heartedly. They love being together and the bond that they have formed is too strong to break. My magnificent SEVEN
Aren't they already "global"? Also, why are Kfans so offended and irritated about them being global and incredibly popular outside of Korea. This is a good thing, no?
Its kmedia because they had no help in their success that is why
@lawaanjaideelyon1890 That's stupid. Why do they care? It's also the fairweather kfans as well. They are the most spoiled doted upon part of the fandom, and they act like spoiled brats.
@@faith6833it bothers kmedia because Bts has mess with their power ,influence and money.

If Korea wants to treat them so badly, they don't deserve them. BTS can live ANYWHERE.
K media/ Knetizens are due a comeuppance.
The sad thing when I think about what you said is that among the idols there must be artists whose talent is wasted because they are stuck in the model BTS managed to escape (with lot of work and a little bit of luck of not being constrained by their agency).
Part of the problem is the agency they are signed with.
Not that that can't happen to you in the USA for example, too.
See for example Megan thee Stallion.
Thank you loved everything you said so proud of BTS and army 💜😍
BTS has grown into a collective rather than a boyband. As for the kmedia, they can go hand themselves. They've done their damnedest to push down/invalidate BTS and their achievements to no avail. Time to sink back into their little well and let BTS shine in the world stage where they belong.
BTS broke the starus quo, where other groups are still struggling for relevance.
Tone down the superiority complex.

TRUE, REAL ARMY WOULD BE SO HAPPY IF THEY HAVE A LIFE OTHER THAN BEING BTS..HAVE A GIRL, GET MARRIED AND JUST HAVE A LIFE..ARMY WOULD BE HAPPY
Would have clicked a thumbs up on your comments if you hadn’t said “get a girl”. I think many fans, including me, think that they should have love with whomever they choose. Plus in many, many places around the world kids are possible to any loving couple. South Korea has more conservative rules concerning adoption, surrogacy, etc. so maybe they will choose to leave Korea to get the personal life they want for themselves! It would be a shame for Korea to push them away.

I’ll repeat thank God for International ARMYs (and those K-ARMY who supported Suga).
What we really don't understand is why K-media is permitted to broadcast known lies. We despise a lack of journalistic integrity whether we find it in our own nation, or another nation.
@@ystrw Yes, that is true in the US as well. When lies become truth and truth becomes lies, we can no longer believe in anything.

I've read the fine will be $10k. I'm not sure if that is correct, but if so... While Suga can well afford that and the 88000% increase in sales means we have paid it for him already.... That is ridiculous!!! I understand that some say that it needs to be higher when it's a person such as an idol who is "rich". That seems rather discriminatory. Usually there are legal guidelines for fines such as this that sets a minimum and maximum. I have to wonder if ANYONE has ever paid that much for galling off a scooter due to a sharp turn. It's crazy.

@@Mbella354 Very true about many fandoms; however, I had a nice experience with Stays a few months before the Suga incident! I saw a video about Stray Kids reaction to Daechwita.

I posted that as an Army, I was disheartened by their actions and if true it was sad to view! Well, a Stray responded this was actually from a video SKZ had posted elsewhere! I replied that WE needed to stand together and report this video en masse as false!!! Well, within 24 hours the video was removed from the Internet.

They are amazing artist together and in solo because they are amazing men
Curious to understand how foreign charts changed the rules to alienate kpop groups? I'm guessing the amount of sales no longer carries the same weight. Can someone explain? Thanks!
I can talk about Billboard. Billboard has sales, radio play and streaming that count towards the charts. When ARMY learned this and started buying more, then Billboard started decreasing the value of sales and changed the rules constantly. Such as you can only buy 4 of the same downloads from the account to count in a week instead of unlimited. Then it changed to one download a week per account. Next, changes were made on where you could buy the albums from to count for the charts. ARMY started streaming more and learning how to stream. Each streaming platform is different and you have to get people that have IP addresses in the country to stream. ARMY got fan clubs in the country and raise money to buy and stream. The hardest thing to break into in the U.S. is radio play. Many U.S. radio stations will not play non English songs or English songs from non English speakers. Slowly ARMY is gaining traction. Who just got his highest ranking on Billboard Pop Airplay at #30. There is more. Hope this helps.
basically they put more wieght of USA Radio play which is bought and paid for illegally. So that nearly everything that's played on USA radio has got there because the artist's label have done illegal deals with the Radio companies.
Yeah, as Eileen is saying, BB and radio are in a kind of double handshake. To get played on US radio, a label now pays for air-time; they literally pay to get on the radio's playlist. The more the label pays, the more spins they get. The more spins, the higher the song will chart on BB. Billboard officially counts spins, streams and sales, but they make radio play the most weighted of the three, something like 60 or 70%. So when BTS makes it to the Hot 100 chart, it's always due to major sales and streams, and very little radio play (except for Butter.)
Six major corporations own all of the radio channels in the US. So they aren't the least bit interested in what listeners want to hear, they're only interested in wringing out the maximum profit by boosting popular musical stars and getting their cut. And BB is perfectly happy to go along with it.
BB's parent company is the Penske Media Corporation. Which owns Variety, Hollywood Reporter, Rolling Stone, Golden Globe Awards, American Country Music Awards, AMA's, Dick Clark's New Year's Eve, and 34 other major magazines or award shows. Talk about having a stranglehold on the industry...
Thank you.
Wait I'm confused in the intro, what do you mean "go global?" Aren't they already global?
💜 old army here lol…been army for 5 years …from philadelphia USA …this scooter-gate IS DUMB!!! i hate when people say “DUI” he wasn’t driving!!! he was riding a scooter …you don’t drive a scooter you ride it …there was no DUI
😅👍🏼
5:30 , 9:20 ..Can we just go back to how HOT Jimin looked during Butter era with that rainbow hair??!!! 🥵🥵🤧 *Unforgettable* 👌
Dear Fairlane, I absolutely in awe of your eloquency. You can express yourself so well and as a fellow non-native english speaker I just admire you. As for Today's content it is now demonstrated to every sceptical or dilusional person wherever they live on this globe that BTS and ARMY are a community based on mutual love and respect. I think this whole phenomenon is unheard of and for many difficult to comprehend. How ARMY all over the world organises walks, purple illuminations, charting songs, expressing their love and suppprt for Yoongi and the boys...all this is just magnificent. And I am so happy to be part of it.
9:00 10:10 11:20 😂 13:00 facts 15:53 17:40
And that I'v seen pisses many off that they still is giving out new stuff while in the military. Clever thinking just clever thinking ahead
Great video as always. Am going to pass it on to some friends who don't really understand my involvement as an Army nor the great talent I am following. Thanks again.
I'm so upset by this....they should be proud of them. They are promoting their country and spreading such a positive message to the world and they can't get over the fact they did this all on their own? Seriously?
K should be G Global. Global Artists
So proud of our smart , hardworking, loving and caring worldwide BangtanArmy family 🥹💜🫂
All my love and respect to our K-Diamonds and our veteran Army 💜 Apobangpo borahae
Great video, good analysis as usual, quite a few videos coming up lately - loving it, feeling so spoiled!
You might want to talk to a sound engineer so your microphone can focus just on your voice and no ambiance sounds. Just a tiny improvement that might help you heaps, esp for the hard of hearing.
BTS has always been this global. They have never really been Kpop from the beginning. Kpop just don’t know what that means UNTIL NOW.
Throughout this fiasco we realise they treat ARMY like Kpop fans. Expecting ARMY to behave like Kpop fans. Believing ARMY to have the socio demographics of Kpop fans. The emotional and intellectual maturity of Kpop fans.
The crabs in the bucket too busy taking each other down to die at the bottom of the bucket instead of lifting each other up and free themselves, to do a reality check.
And even THEN, after the world outside of their bubble broke the news, after we muggles told them hey one of yours entered our world and conquered it, when the others who came before them are stuck in a corner of our room because we ignored them because they didn’t appeal to us because they weren’t good enough, they still refuse to accept the reality that BTS is BTS. And ARMY is ARMY.
BTS isn’t kpop that is WHY they succeed where all their seniors in kpop failed.
BTS PAVED THE WAY. The rest can keep their “firsts” in their little kpop bubble no one cares about.
So many to rant about. So little time.

BTS never had any help from the K Media or any other 'agency', other Korean artists/celebrities included but they all wanna be in their circle now. 🙄 They were alone and picked on when they went on other shows. I will never forget the hurt in JK's eyes when those guys refused his genuine offer of food.. grown men trying to belittle a child. I could go on but we all know the story of them making their own way and lighting the path so that others and their ever growing ARMY could follow. I get choked up thinking about their struggle & where they are now. I am still learning more and more as time goes by. I have never been part of a fandom or cared enough about a group like I have with BTS. That's not to say I haven't enjoyed some of their music etc but never like I love BTS. They are good humans first, brothers, artists, and let's not forget wonderfully chaotic. I could ramble on but I won't xD
I so much appreciate your educated perspective on things. Sometimes there's soooo much drama haters are trying to spread and sometimes just honest misinformation. Thank for always being kind. You always have my respect. I 💜you
BTS to artyści a tym zawsze więcej wolno bo tworząc sztukę działają na emocjach, najpierw wykorzystują swoje by dać je nam w innej formie. O BTS będą prace magisterskie i doktoranckie bo to nie tylko zespół, to zjawisko kulturowe. Cieszę się, że ARMY to nie tylko te skłócone ze sobą grupy wysyłkowe ale społeczność dorównująca intelektualnie wspieranej grupie muzycznej. To daje nadzieję, że pomimo różnic językowych, kulturowych, narodowościowych jest coś lub ktoś co może ludzi jednoczyć do wspólnego działania jak wsparcie, obrona czy wyniesienia w górę. To jest niezwykłe. Nie chcę bluźnić ale to prawie jak religia. Sama łapię się na tym, że mój dzień zaczyna i kończy się z BTS.
I'm glad you mentioned the respect there was for RM's album , it's quality was another level. Absolutely astounding.
하지만 방탄소년단이 진격한다면 어떨까? 💪

Checking in from little old Rhode Island, ARMY checking in because I'm behind BTS even when they haven't said so yet! Borahae ARMY and Tannies!

Transcendent means above the norms of human physical experience🤷🏻♂️😊😊😊. Totally agree😊
The korean citizens have never understood how BTS made it and still do not know the impact of these guys. I watch street interview of Koreans talking about bts and K-pop, and I always wonder if they are living under the rock when it comes to BTS impact and achievement or they just do not want to acknowledge it
The lack of cooperation in the K-pop industry is one of the reasons why the industry seems to be going in circles when it comes to relevance and recognition.
If you can't appreciate your own stars and limit breakers in your country(BTS), why do you think the West will give you any real opportunity
Make it make sense 🤔
most don't know about BTS in South Korea as they are not reported on the say way as those from kpop companies that pay the media for good stories about their artist. They big up small wins of kpop artists and either totally ignore or at best downplay the big achievements of BTS.
I agree and I also have a problem with S. Korea using Bts to make there country look better, etc. Yet they can't seem to back them up! SMH
Army here from wales I’m so proud to be apart of this fandom and bts saved music for me back the end of 2020 was having a hard time during the pandemic and after trying to find a job ect.
However, since discovery in BTS in 2020 they brought a smile to my face every time I watch one BTS run episodes or a bon voyage and bts in the soop of there’s they made me appreciate music again but in in a different way and I will be an army till the day I die borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜
hooray to BTS🎉❤
Most kpop companies want quick hits and streams then debut 20 new groups in search of more new shiny hits instead of being patient, taking risks, and consistent building of idol careers over the years. Most idols are just products, easily replaced unfortunately. Currently GGs are only focused on looks and tiktok trending fast instead of actual art of music..they have almost no longevity
I absolutely LOVE this! Thank you for gathering the magic and putting it all together for us.
I love this channel. The videos are so well explained and insightful.
Also the ARMYS in the comment section are so nice and mature.
My wish and Visualisation is : very soon to read "Helko, This is Bighit..." where pronouncing officialy that BTS are NOT to be considered (korean) IDOLS anymore, but WORLD ARTISTS as BTS ARE NOW !! Lets hope they will get out of the stigma of being IDOL, so the local Korean Media cannot even think of addresing them with disrespect or fiasco scandals. APOBANGPO💜💪
Hi, muy buenos comentarios. Soy nueva con BTS, apenas poco más de dos años. Algo que he notado es que ellos fueron reconocidos en occidente. He visto varias veces viejas filmaciones y verlos decir que les parecía increíble que en occidente tenían tantos fans cuando en Corea no era igual (calculo que en Corea les restaba trascendencia la política de medios alineada a las grandes empresas de kpop). Lo segundo es que, al contrario de lo que la lógica indica, mientras peor tratan a BTS como grupo o como individuos más provocan a sus fans en su real compromiso de protegerlos y no es por fanatismo ciego sino porque sin importar el tiempo en que los conozcan han creado lazos reales con ellos y la autenticidad mutua que se ha creado donde no es que se les perdone todo sino que se sabe que son muy honestos y son los primeros en reconocer sus errores por lo que, en base a la experiencia desde que BTS nació, no necesitan que les digan o mientan sobre quienes son los jóvenes de BTS, ARMY los conoce y ninguna campaña logra cambiar la esencia del conocimiento de ARMY hacia BTS. Ellos junto a sus fans han logrado vencer el poder de los medios y de los poderosos que visiblemente tratan de derrocarlos del podio humano, humilde, talentoso y comprometido que BTS ha conseguido a fuerza de autenticidad y desapego a esos mismos medios. No implica que BTS y ARMY no sufran cada embate sino que, cada embate hace más fuerte el lazo y la simbiosis de esta dupla que parece haber escrito su camino en piedra y no en el volátil y frágil sendero de quienes se sienten demasiado poderosos pero que indefectiblemente terminan marginados de esta gran y mundial base de fans sumamente leales. Un abrazo y hasta tu próximo vídeo. Saludos desde Argentina, Betty de 54 años. /// Una de las fortalezas más grandes de BTS y ARMY es que han creado su propio universo que no necesita del poder que digita voluntades para existir y esto, para estos poderosos es la mayor amenaza a sus delirios de manejar mediáticamente voluntades. BTS y ARMY son un paradigma que muchos no logran comprender y por eso les temen.
BTS is already global.
To replicate the success of BTS, they need a loyal fanbase like ARMY. To replicate a fanbase like ARMY, they need to have a geniuine, talented and artistic group like BTS. It goes full circle. Tthere are a lot of elements like personality, sincerely towards music and art, dedication for growth, communication and a lot more the reason as to why and how BTS and ARMY are an irreplicable solid team. Good luck with finding the next BTS.
