The crazy part about this music video is that it's all real and no green screen/GCI. Also this video ties into a bigger storyline that has been going on for years.
Only a tiny tiny bit of CGI. Like the phone turning into dust and the fire in front of Suga was enlarged (due to safety). Love the behind the scenes video!
@@ARMY-yq3rl Ah, true! Just rewatched it. Edited parts would be more correct then, rather than CGI. What about the sand and "floating" petals in the JK-scene?
This is not a 'break up' song. Shortly, 'Fake love' is about loosing yourself due to trying to please another person/people (not necessary a lover). The song is a part of 'Love yourself' albums. When it comes to BTS, you should keep an open mind. Love exists not only between couples btw. There are also family, friends, fans and yourself. This is my old comment about 'Fake love': The meaning of this song is when you love someone, you try to please them. You do things, which you usually don't, and behave just like you think you are supposed to but not like you want to. You loose yourself in this love, becoming someone else, and ask that person in the mirror 'Who are you?'. Is this true love when you have to pretend just to please someone, when you forget about real yourself? No, it's fake love. And there is an answer: before loving someone else you have to learn how to love yourself. Right after 'Fake love' in 'Love yourself: tear' album BTS released 'Epiphany' ('I'm the one I should love') and 'Idol' ('You can't stop me loving myself') in 'Love yourself: answer' album.
Fun fact: They didn't use a greenscreen in the making of this video at all. Everything was real, like the fire (explosion), water pooling in and the floor falling. Fake Love will forever be one of my favorites. 💜
first of all I would change the "man and woman" to "romantic relationships" or something that includes non hetro romantic relationships since you don't know the different members sexuality and they don't usually use gender specific pronouns in their songs. Secondly it's rarely about the romantic love or relationship in songs but it is about romantic love in some songs and in some songs just love in general and in other songs other forms of love too, like self love, or love for friends or ARMY etc.

It's more than a break up, it's disappointment with yourself. Knowing that you didn't love yourself enough not to fall into the pressure of changing who you are for the one "You love" when really the one you love doesn't truly love you, but the version of you they created. Like then saying goes, "How can you love someone when you don't even love yourself?" In so, they turn themselves into a "pretty doll". This can be interpreted in so many other ways. For one, they are Idols. This could be addressing fake fans. The fans that only love the clean cut version that make sales and charts, but not the ordinary everyday men that are growing older and becoming wiser. The thought of, "Would you love me if I wasn't this Pretty doll, this Idol." Their songs have a lot of meaning, messages behind them. Everything has a concept. It has been ongoing for the last soon to be 8 years. The deeper you guys go into BTS, you will see. It really up to you to interpret what the song means.
For further clarification, this song wasn't about a lover. BTS tends to talk about controversial or topics not well known or acknowledged. Also keep in mind BTS doesn't use too much CGI or green screen ofc they still use it on some parts. I hope you guys will keep being open minded and dive deeper into BTS.
Just to clarify I know it may sound like they’re saying the N word but they’re really not lolol Thank you guys for reacting Im loving these reactions. Please keep it coming
Ne-ga (네가) means ‘You’ and Ni-ga (니가) is very informal version with same meaning. themelaninajumma.blog/2019/10/10/the-most-misunderstood-n-words-in-kpop/
Also, this song is from their Love Yourself Trilogy of albums. The albums in order are Love Yourself: Her (focused on loving another), Love Yourself: Tear (the destruction of that love -- the album Fake Love is on), and Love Yourself: Answer (the answer is loving yourself -- a love based on hiding or being fake or not being yourself is doomed).
Yeeees, please do react to ON kinetic manifesto film. It's a totally different concept. More emphasis on the choreo, less on the set and props. They are always trying new things, they're so original and versatile. All of this and their deep messages, dedication to their craft, love for their fans, etc., is what makes them so appealing to fans of all ages. Their performances are on another level. I hope you keep reacting to them. It's so worth it.💜💜
Fake love is a classic! One thing you should know is that bts are very versatile, their music is always changing and is ALWAYS good, their also famous for their lyrics so enjoy! 💜
Thanks for reacting to this! Love your reaction. The song can be about any kind of relationship, even the one you have with yourself. There is a behind the making video that shows the real physical vs practical effects in the MV. Hope you check out more. Also, the live performance of this and dance practice video is worth the view - this one is amazing but only touches the fringes of the choreo. Thanks again!
There is a storyline that runs through older BTS videos including this one. This MV is heavily influenced by the short story ‘ The ones who walk away from Omelas’ which is about a utopian society where everyone is happy and prosperous because there is a child in a room suffering for the sake of everyone else. JK (the one with the red shirt) is the child. Jin wants to keep JK in the room to keep everyone else happy so he closes the curtains on him. But at the beginning V helps JK up in the dance and then the explosion in Jin’s room occurs freeing JK. Slowly he makes his way through the rooms and as he does the fake realities crumble and the others have to face their original storylines. (Fire,water chocolate bars etc all mean something to each of them.). At the end Jin tries to hold on but JK frees his hand.
I discovered you guys yesterday and I am loving your reactions.. Can't wait to see you react to Blood sweat and tears PLUS THEIR LIVE PERFOMANCES. I'm excited for you!!!!!
The meaning behind BTS' songs and music videos is simply immaculate They're literally revealing all of our darkest fears, secrets, faults and worries in the most beautiful way possible. We all hate or despise ourselves because of certain things and these boys' music is literally the definition of, "it's okay, you're okay". Just so comforting. And the amount of emotional intelligence that just goes into their videos. They tell their stories and even tell our stories in such unique and deeply creative ways. They're cultured and educated and truly show what happens when knowledge and art come together. POWERFUL That is what sets them apart from any other artist, at least for me🤭. They not only restore my faith in humanity but also make me feel connected to it✊😔
Such a lovely reaction. One thing you'll find about BTS is they create and auditory, visual and intellectual experience in each song. This song is from one of my favorite albums, Love Yourself: Tear. BTS makes all hits. Every track. Its actually amazing!
there are so many hidden messages in the song. the chocolate bars, the water that fills the room, the fire,... ill try to explain it the best i can. so basically bts has been doing this HUGE storyline since the start of their career. the storyline happens in the music videos, the webtoon (they brought out a webtoon to explain the storyline better) and the notes. the notes are little note books that come with the albums they put out. so basically j-hope who was laying on the chocolate bars was abonded as a child, his mother left him at a park (thats why there is also a scene where he sits infront of a door and the room is filled with park stuff) with only a chocolate bar in his hands. jimin has been locked up in a mental hospital and he tried to drown himself in a bathtub thats why the room he was in filled with water. SUGAs mother died in a fire and he tried to k!ll himself by burning himself thats why his room started to burn. taehyung is in a room with cell phones because he once attacked his abusive father with a knife and after he did that he tried to reach out to RM who was his role model. he tried to reach out to him over the cell phone but RM didnt pick up the call. RMs room has those handles in his room because he met a girl at the bus (if i remember it correctly) also his room looks like a container. that container resembles his old house, he lived in a container because he was really poor. jin tries to save the flower in that glass while his room is exploding. jin was dating a girl and they wanted to meet up. jin knew about her favorite flower so he wanted to buy her those but when they met up the truck that was suppose to bring him the flowers, hit her and she died. jungkooks room is dark but he is always observing the boys. in every scene you can see how jungkook looks at the boys. (he is on the other side of the mirror in RMs room, when jin looks at side of his room you can see how he is looking at jungkook, he is in the keyhole of j-hopes room, he looks through that hole in jimins room, he is right above taehyungs room and he looks through a hole in SUGAs room) the boys know that jungkook is watching them. i dont want to get too much in the storyline because its WAY too long for me to explain it here but you guys can watch videos to it on youtube that explain the storyline ( the best are from the youtuber xCeleste, she explains it really detailed and understandable). the storyline always gives me goosebumps and how there are so many hidden messages... im sorry for the long text i hope yall could follow me a little. if you have questions you can always ask me!!
'coming to a moment of clarity' is a good way to capture this song's meaning, as well as several others in the Love Yourself album trilogy. Thanks for paying attention to the meaning.
Trust & believe that everyone reads the lyrics💯 They out so much work into their craft it would be a huge mistake not to. They write & produce & act & direct with their in house people of course. They have always said that they make the lyrics to be able to fit everyone so their songs can be what you want. This song is basically them admitting thar the love they have for one’s self is fake. They don’t love themselves & their sick of it. I can relate & I actually see this song like that but you can see it in a whole other way witch is completely fine. Art should be seen through each ones individual however it’s fit. You guys should react to “Spring Day” it’s very beautiful & RM the leader of BTS has said “if you haven’t heard about us I suggest you listen to Spring Day first” i know you’ve listened to some of their songs already but this song is very special to everyone & hopefully it becomes something special to you guys as well in any way💜💜
the best part it that parently they used no cgi in their video... the part were the ground was falling when he was running was real you guys shoukd check out the behind the scenes for this (not for a reaction but whenever you have time) even the fire explosion with the guy in the chair was real
BTS created a fictional storyline that runs through a lot of their MVs. You can watch them and enjoy without delving into the storyline, just know that most of their MVs are a LOT more than face value and a lot of symbolism might seem out of place without knowing the storyline, like the snicker bars. If you guys really like the choreo, you should check out the dance practices; you get to see the full choreo instead of the chopped up version in the MVs. Also... if you haven't yet, check out some of their live performances; that is where BTS really shines. :)
That’s the beauty of music... how it impacts each individual differently is how it was intended. We can all get something different from the same song/video. BTS has beautiful lyrics and I hope that more people will take the time to look up the translations like you guys did. 💜✌🏻
Thank you for your reaction, I really appreciate you taking time to look at visual aspect and read the lyrics, because lyrics are very important in bts songs. They composed, produced, and write the lyrics in almost all of their songs, so you will definitely feel their music growing as their mature in as a person compared to their past works. Can't wait for you to dig deeper into the group :) You can pause all you want to read or analyze the mv, we don't mind watching long video, and we'll also open to hear your thoughts about them. Stay safe, enjoy the journey :)
Guys just want to let you know if you react to a BTS introduction don't worry if you make a longer video reactions we will watch it till the end trust me 😅 we'we watch a one hour reaction/performance videos of BTS we don't mind at all and Bighit doesn't copyright MV's as long as you let the intro play so, yes like others ARMY have already said you don't need to cut part :)
Really love you guys reacting to these BTS music videos, and especially with the subtitles too / the lyrics. I always forget to do that myself, but then watching it with you guys here makes me pay more attention to the lyrics too, to the meaning and love your reflections on all the lyrics, shots, the metaphors as well as the dancing too, etc. Haha, feel like with Kpop it's almost always multitasking/multireacting ! That's what makes them so endlessly entertaining & fascinating too. Big thanks !
Promise I only come to RUclips for this kind of content. (Luckily, it knows my mind and provides me new reactors to BTS all the time). Watching other people go through what I went thru discovering them gives me lyyyyfe! I’m 40 years old, my daughter finally convinced me to watch a few videos and I’ve been here ever since. Their talent way surpasses anything going on in the US right now or for like a generation. (My opinion). Thanks for your content- can’t wait for more
Love your reaction, thanks - I really enjoyed your comments - particularly that BTS fills a void that something in the music industry. doesn't fill and that they do an amazing job with everything that they do. I completely agree. They are a genre in themselves.
You're right. Their songs and MVs do fill a void in you. There is no right or wrong way to interpret how each song makes you feel or what it means. Fake Love can be applied to any relationship whether with a lover, family or friend. It's about losing yourself when you become something you're not in order to please the other person. Their lyrics are very deep and relatable. Watching the lyric videos first and then the MV helped me understand and appreciate each song more. I love your content and I'm so excited to watch you guys discover BTS.
This song has a special place in my heart! Thank you guys for the great reaction, the 7 boys are the BEST, hoping for more bts videos coming soon, and I think it will be better if you get to know them first 💜🥰
thanks for reacting to this! its always interesting that we all have different takes about a song. thats what makes it great. please more BTS reactions soon!
I love how your face showed, " what the hell, it's over?!" When you thought there was a drop but it stopped and showed Jungkook walking towards the sand. 😆
I love this song - thanks for taking the time out of both of your busy schedules to react to the song 👍-- being a new army ive become somewhat entranced by this group - i find their songs unique in such a way that it is never straight forward, there is always a deeper meaning the lyrics - and i like that they dont generally sing abt romance --- their songs focus a lot on self acceptance, finding your own voice and staying true to your individuality --- also ive learned although they are singing abt loving a romantic partner, their "love" songs are written for the army -- you'll come to discover as you both get to know the group -- ive never come across a group with this much connection with their fans .
Not a break up song... it about loving yourself. This album has story lines to each song to Love Yourself. RM writes some deep stuff. If you're interested look it all up. It is amazing. I like story songs, and the images created are for storylines. Many things that appear in one video will show up again in another. It is really cool.
Nice Reaction! can you guys maybe take it down a little and see what the group is about and why they have many friends from all across the world and why they are so big and heavenly talked about ?: Please react to This is BTS by xceleste, From Nobodies to Legends 2019 & who is BTS 7 members of bangtan **NOTE** if you do decide to watch Who Is BTS The 7 Members, letting you know that it’s a very long video but is so worth the watch and that you don’t have to cut it up into parts / just watch it all the way through because us ARMYS don’t care how long of a video it is when it comes to those 7 kings 🤗💜
i like it when you turn up the volume yeaaahh that's what i need thank youu.. i love the rhytm and the beat of this Fake Love.. i miss their fake love performances actually :(
New subscriber here! Glad to be here before 10k!! I’m so happy you guys react to my two favourites 😆 BTS and Little Mix 💜 good job guys, I love your enthusiasm, focus and opinions! Look forward to more reactions 💜
i totally agree with you that it can be a break-up song, esp for those who've been lied to, or those who had to repress their thoughts and real feelings because they feared that their partner won't accept them as they are.
Glad you liked this! You are very open minded in your reactions. As some has said--it's not strictly a break-up song. It's deeper and makes the point that you can't love somebody else if you are hiding your true self behind a mask. But I totally understand your interpretation. But I really feel you when you said how BTS is filling a void in the music industry. Personally, I find BTS' music great on its own, but when combined with the MV and the performance, it just works in a way you don't see with other artists. There are only a handful of artists that I would wait up all night to see the premiere of a MV--Michael Jackson was the first. BTS fits in that category.
I loved your reaction! thanks for giving BTS a chance they really are very talented they compose and produce most of their songs, they also have solo works that are amazing they can react to ON KINETIC MANIFESTO and to the rap songs line cypher pt 1,2,3 and 4 are three rappers RM (leader of the group, songwriter and producer) J-HOPE (dancer leader songwriter and producer) and SUGA (known as AGUST D in his solo works producer and songwriter) and 4 vocalists JIN, JUNGKOOK, V, and JIMIN They also participate in the production and composition of their songs 💜
The flow switches on their songs are just 👌 and thats what engages the listeners & u dont get bored + their deep & meaningful Lyrics! those are just a few of the many things i enjoy & love about them 💜 Great reaction👍 keep them coming! Ps pls React to “ Save Me”
I suggest you do the MV with a live performance or dance practice together. BTS is a very exciting band especially live shows with ARMY. The energy BTS brings is infectious! Dance practice is amazing because you get to see all the choreography. Enjoy the journey guys!
Cant wait for you guys to react to Black Swan and On Kinetic Manifesto. Coz those two are monumental and iconic songs too! BTS is the genre. Thank you for these BTS reactions 💜🔥
First time seeing y'all on my feed and definitely worth watching. Loved your personal take on the video. They have a video called Save Me that comes next and the one that's last in the trio is called I'm Fine. Y'all should definitely watch them as well.
Hi guys, thanksfor your reaction. You have 8 years to catch up with BTS...but it is a great journey!. BTS almost never does a song about lovers or love between a couple...it is more open and big is family, friends, etc, but the most important is about "love yourself" in first place. Please keep in mind that BTS' songs and videos have deep meanings; the lyrics have positive messages and the visual of their videos support that message and of course they have amazing productions and high technical quality, and awesome choreograpies....the they have amazing, really great live performances...check their concerts and awards performances. 💜😊
BTS is a whole new level! 07 amazing, talented artists who write and produces most of their songs. They're not puppets that just sings what they are told to sing. 3 rappers and 4 vocalists. 2 of the rappers were underground rappers before joining BTS. The vocal line is amazing as well. By the way, they sing live at the concerts and wards shows. You guys should react to XCelest video Who is BTS - the 07 members... A few songs to check it out.. BTS Fire, Dope, We are Bulletproof, Magic Shop, Life goes On, Bapsae, War of Hormones, Rise of Bangta, Idol, Dyonisus and many more! Rap Line Cypher 1, 2, 3, 4; Cypher Medley Live, Outro: Tear; UGH, Ddaeng Rap Line Solo work RM: Joke, Do you, Change, Persona Suga: Daewchita, The Last, Shadow, Agust D J-Hope: Daydream, Airplane, Ego Vocal Line The Truth Untold, Dimple, House of Cards Vocal Line solo work Jin: Epiphany Jimin: Serendipity, Filter V: Stigma, Singularity Jungkook: Begin, Euphoria You can check it out their variety show called Run BTS. You can see their personalities shine and it's really funny! Good luck, guys! I started just wanting to know their names. Now I'm a proud Army! 💜
Months later during their comeback ‘Love Yourself : TEAR’, BTS writes a track that talks about fake love where they realize the love they felt was fake but it’s not true. So, they express their pain & grief in their official “Fake Love” music video. In their first track “DNA” they show that we’re all connected by our DNA #BTSDNA #BTSFakeLove
YOU GET IT, They fill a void that nothing else out there is doing. Please, do as many reactions to their intros as you can (Who is BTS, SUGA and spice, anything by xCeleste, Asian theory, and there is a great new series call the Rise of Bangtan), get to know who they are as individuals. We will watch and cheer you on! Then plan on some live shows, and some dance practices too!
i love your interpretation. it's a good take. music is open to interpretation. 💜 thus, their inspiration on this mv is heavily based on their bangtan universe. the song's lyrics is mainly about losing one's self to please someone else - mainly pretentious love (or fake). ☺️ but again, we can all take it how we want. 💜 i remember a pearl jam song entitled alive. when they wrote it, they meant it more as a rhetoric, full of hate. "oh i'm still alive." but, the listeners took it as an inspiring song, that despite all the troubles and heartaches, they survived... still alive. and through the years, even the meaning changed for pearl jam. ☺️
In a lot of their songs that seems to be a relationship about a guy and a girl, think of it as a relationship between BTS and their fans. In this case it was more about what is expected of them as they were a group, when they were told they were betraying hip hop and wore makeup like girls. Why should they change what they do for someone else? Why should they change their image because of what society says they should be? Be yourself, don't change yourself to please others. Please yourself, love yourself. Don't change yourself to make people love you, it's a fake persona. When you said, there was something like missing, yes! Until BTS I saw many of the American and western music videos as just a visual version of the song. BTS music videos have a story, hidden meanings, it's like watching a movie. Instead of the countless videos of guys rapping, in cars, pretty girls, been there, done that! It reminded me of when MJ would do his music videos which were like short movies! YES! Something you can watch AND listen to! As far as you mentioned the choreography was more complex, I see this group's choreo and formations as more complex than a lot of other male groups, and a LOT more strenuous, demanding, and complex than girl groups. Girl groups are basically all the same, sway and rotate the hips, not a lot of feet movement and constant changing formations. It's more sexually oriented and simple, like cheerleader and pom pom girls, like school girls. I can mute the sound, and you can interchange most girl groups with any other girl group. BTS you can mute the sound and you will know which song they are doing just by the choreo!
The crazy part about this music video is that it's all real and no green screen/GCI. Also this video ties into a bigger storyline that has been going on for years.

wow you explained it beautifully this is my take on it too. It's well put together.

Fun fact: They didn't use a greenscreen in the making of this video at all. Everything was real, like the fire (explosion), water pooling in and the floor falling.
Fake Love will forever be one of my favorites.

I love Fake Love. As much as I love all BTS, their dark concepts are my favourite!
BTS songs believe it or not are never really about love as far as "romantic relationships" it gets way deeper than that lol
Okay, down to hear and learn more can't wait💯
first of all I would change the "man and woman" to "romantic relationships" or something that includes non hetro romantic relationships since you don't know the different members sexuality and they don't usually use gender specific pronouns in their songs.
Secondly it's rarely about the romantic love or relationship in songs but it is about romantic love in some songs and in some songs just love in general and in other songs other forms of love too, like self love, or love for friends or ARMY etc.

It's more than a break up, it's disappointment with yourself. Knowing that you didn't love yourself enough not to fall into the pressure of changing who you are for the one "You love" when really the one you love doesn't truly love you, but the version of you they created. Like then saying goes, "How can you love someone when you don't even love yourself?" In so, they turn themselves into a "pretty doll". This can be interpreted in so many other ways. For one, they are Idols. This could be addressing fake fans.

The thought of, "Would you love me if I wasn't this Pretty doll, this Idol." Their songs have a lot of meaning, messages behind them. Everything has a concept. It has been ongoing for the last soon to be 8 years. The deeper you guys go into BTS, you will see. It really up to you to interpret what the song means.
omg u guys should react to 'daechwita' by 'agust d'. he's Suga, one of the rappers in bts but that was a solo project he did and its so good.
Love Daechwita! Great song and great MV!
For further clarification, this song wasn't about a lover. BTS tends to talk about controversial or topics not well known or acknowledged. Also keep in mind BTS doesn't use too much CGI or green screen ofc they still use it on some parts. I hope you guys will keep being open minded and dive deeper into BTS.

There is a behind the making video that shows the real physical vs practical effects in the MV. Hope you check out more. Also, the live performance of this and dance practice video is worth the view - this one is amazing but only touches the fringes of the choreo. Thanks again!
Thank you for this 💯💯❤️ love the meaning!
AHHHHHHHHH ok ok I see you, would it be possible for you to react to airplane pt 2, please? 💜💜💜💜
oh. my god. that would be so cool
There is a storyline that runs through older BTS videos including this one. This MV is heavily influenced by the short story ‘ The ones who walk away from Omelas’ which is about a utopian society where everyone is happy and prosperous because there is a child in a room suffering for the sake of everyone else. JK (the one with the red shirt) is the child. Jin wants to keep JK in the room to keep everyone else happy so he closes the curtains on him. But at the beginning V helps JK up in the dance and then the explosion in Jin’s room occurs freeing JK. Slowly he makes his way through the rooms and as he does the fake realities crumble and the others have to face their original storylines. (Fire,water chocolate bars etc all mean something to each of them.). At the end Jin tries to hold on but JK frees his hand.
Guys, the storyline that threads their MV's... it's a cosmos in itself!
I discovered you guys yesterday and I am loving your reactions.. Can't wait to see you react to Blood sweat and tears PLUS THEIR LIVE PERFOMANCES. I'm excited for you!!!!!
Thank you!! Can't wait 💯
The meaning behind BTS' songs and music videos is simply immaculate
They're literally revealing all of our darkest fears, secrets, faults and worries in the most beautiful way possible. We all hate or despise ourselves because of certain things and these boys' music is literally the definition of, "it's okay, you're okay". Just so comforting.
And the amount of emotional intelligence that just goes into their videos. They tell their stories and even tell our stories in such unique and deeply creative ways. They're cultured and educated and truly show what happens when knowledge and art come together. POWERFUL
That is what sets them apart from any other artist, at least for me🤭. They not only restore my faith in humanity but also make me feel connected to it✊😔
Such a lovely reaction. One thing you'll find about BTS is they create and auditory, visual and intellectual experience in each song. This song is from one of my favorite albums, Love Yourself: Tear. BTS makes all hits. Every track. Its actually amazing!
there are so many hidden messages in the song. the chocolate bars, the water that fills the room, the fire,... ill try to explain it the best i can. so basically bts has been doing this HUGE storyline since the start of their career. the storyline happens in the music videos, the webtoon (they brought out a webtoon to explain the storyline better) and the notes. the notes are little note books that come with the albums they put out. so basically j-hope who was laying on the chocolate bars was abonded as a child, his mother left him at a park (thats why there is also a scene where he sits infront of a door and the room is filled with park stuff) with only a chocolate bar in his hands. jimin has been locked up in a mental hospital and he tried to drown himself in a bathtub thats why the room he was in filled with water. SUGAs mother died in a fire and he tried to k!ll himself by burning himself thats why his room started to burn. taehyung is in a room with cell phones because he once attacked his abusive father with a knife and after he did that he tried to reach out to RM who was his role model. he tried to reach out to him over the cell phone but RM didnt pick up the call. RMs room has those handles in his room because he met a girl at the bus (if i remember it correctly) also his room looks like a container. that container resembles his old house, he lived in a container because he was really poor. jin tries to save the flower in that glass while his room is exploding. jin was dating a girl and they wanted to meet up. jin knew about her favorite flower so he wanted to buy her those but when they met up the truck that was suppose to bring him the flowers, hit her and she died. jungkooks room is dark but he is always observing the boys. in every scene you can see how jungkook looks at the boys. (he is on the other side of the mirror in RMs room, when jin looks at side of his room you can see how he is looking at jungkook, he is in the keyhole of j-hopes room, he looks through that hole in jimins room, he is right above taehyungs room and he looks through a hole in SUGAs room) the boys know that jungkook is watching them. i dont want to get too much in the storyline because its WAY too long for me to explain it here but you guys can watch videos to it on youtube that explain the storyline ( the best are from the youtuber xCeleste, she explains it really detailed and understandable). the storyline always gives me goosebumps and how there are so many hidden messages... im sorry for the long text i hope yall could follow me a little. if you have questions you can always ask me!!
This song hit different all the time. It's so good 😫😫😫
Btsssss!!!!!!👑👑
'coming to a moment of clarity' is a good way to capture this song's meaning, as well as several others in the Love Yourself album trilogy. Thanks for paying attention to the meaning.
Fake Love was my first introduction to BTS. Still one of my favorites :)
Ya! They make army go crazy....
Watch their concerts, its just like fire with amazing vibes & feel....✨❤
Trust & believe that everyone reads the lyrics💯 They out so much work into their craft it would be a huge mistake not to. They write & produce & act & direct with their in house people of course. They have always said that they make the lyrics to be able to fit everyone so their songs can be what you want. This song is basically them admitting thar the love they have for one’s self is fake. They don’t love themselves & their sick of it. I can relate & I actually see this song like that but you can see it in a whole other way witch is completely fine. Art should be seen through each ones individual however it’s fit. You guys should react to “Spring Day” it’s very beautiful & RM the leader of BTS has said “if you haven’t heard about us I suggest you listen to Spring Day first” i know you’ve listened to some of their songs already but this song is very special to everyone & hopefully it becomes something special to you guys as well in any way💜💜
It's midnight 1:00 am in my country and I'm still watching this 😂💜
the best part it that parently they used no cgi in their video... the part were the ground was falling when he was running was real you guys shoukd check out the behind the scenes for this (not for a reaction but whenever you have time) even the fire explosion with the guy in the chair was real
BTS created a fictional storyline that runs through a lot of their MVs. You can watch them and enjoy without delving into the storyline, just know that most of their MVs are a LOT more than face value and a lot of symbolism might seem out of place without knowing the storyline, like the snicker bars. If you guys really like the choreo, you should check out the dance practices; you get to see the full choreo instead of the chopped up version in the MVs. Also... if you haven't yet, check out some of their live performances; that is where BTS really shines. :)
That’s the beauty of music... how it impacts each individual differently is how it was intended. We can all get something different from the same song/video. BTS has beautiful lyrics and I hope that more people will take the time to look up the translations like you guys did. 💜✌🏻
Next
BTS - Fire
Blackpink - whistle
Little mix - Bounce back
Thanks 😊
New Army subscriber 💜
Just FYI theres no CGI in this😁😏
Thank you for your reaction, I really appreciate you taking time to look at visual aspect and read the lyrics, because lyrics are very important in bts songs. They composed, produced, and write the lyrics in almost all of their songs, so you will definitely feel their music growing as their mature in as a person compared to their past works.
Can't wait for you to dig deeper into the group :)
You can pause all you want to read or analyze the mv, we don't mind watching long video, and we'll also open to hear your thoughts about them. Stay safe, enjoy the journey :)
Y’all should react to “Namjoon being done with BTS English” and “Namjoon being done with everything”!
Guys just want to let you know if you react to a BTS introduction don't worry if you make a longer video reactions we will watch it till the end trust me 😅 we'we watch a one hour reaction/performance videos of BTS we don't mind at all and Bighit doesn't copyright MV's as long as you let the intro play so, yes like others ARMY have already said you don't need to cut part :)
They are really charismatic!
I appreciate that you allow your subscribers to actually enjoy the video without the two of you constantly interrupting| Thank you.
Really love you guys reacting to these BTS music videos, and especially with the subtitles too / the lyrics. I always forget to do that myself, but then watching it with you guys here makes me pay more attention to the lyrics too, to the meaning and love your reflections on all the lyrics, shots, the metaphors as well as the dancing too, etc. Haha, feel like with Kpop it's almost always multitasking/multireacting ! That's what makes them so endlessly entertaining & fascinating too.
Big thanks !
Promise I only come to RUclips for this kind of content. (Luckily, it knows my mind and provides me new reactors to BTS all the time). Watching other people go through what I went thru discovering them gives me lyyyyfe! I’m 40 years old, my daughter finally convinced me to watch a few videos and I’ve been here ever since. Their talent way surpasses anything going on in the US right now or for like a generation. (My opinion).
Thanks for your content- can’t wait for more
BTS is very deep. The lyrics always mean more than you think. ALWAYS. Keep if up with BTS.
Love your reaction, thanks - I really enjoyed your comments - particularly that BTS fills a void that something in the music industry. doesn't fill and that they do an amazing job with everything that they do. I completely agree. They are a genre in themselves.
This song is the first I heard from the boys and it is still my favorite. Thank you for the reaction.
3:45 Another pause of my beautiful human being J-Hope. Great reaction again.
You're right. Their songs and MVs do fill a void in you. There is no right or wrong way to interpret how each song makes you feel or what it means. Fake Love can be applied to any relationship whether with a lover, family or friend. It's about losing yourself when you become something you're not in order to please the other person. Their lyrics are very deep and relatable. Watching the lyric videos first and then the MV helped me understand and appreciate each song more. I love your content and I'm so excited to watch you guys discover BTS.
You should react to the behind the sense of this mv
This song has a special place in my heart! Thank you guys for the great reaction, the 7 boys are the BEST, hoping for more bts videos coming soon, and I think it will be better if you get to know them first 💜🥰
All their songs have a storyline behind it...watch all the explanations behind the songs.
bts debuted as a hip hop group in 2013 ... they are very versatile in music genres
This song and the song of My Blood and My Veins are a masterpiece
thanks for reacting to this! its always interesting that we all have different takes about a song. thats what makes it great. please more BTS reactions soon!
This was the song that made me Army... its just something about it that git me hooked. Mic Drop was the first BTS song I heard!
Too RIGHT it fills that gap that somehow is missing in most music today. Careful BTS WILL CHANGE YOU! Always for the BETTER!
Their music have a story
You guys should react to bts ON manifesto film mv 💜💜💜
Yess
Thank u so much for reacting this 🙏☺️
😁😉
You guys are great! Thanks for appreciating BTS.
I think you guys would love their dance practices because you get to appreciate the choreo on a bigger scale
Love your reactions to our boys!! Get ready!! It only gets better from here!!
I love how your face showed, " what the hell, it's over?!"
When you thought there was a drop but it stopped and showed Jungkook walking towards the sand. 😆
I would watch tiny desk concert as they have a live band and both rap and vocals are so clear and great 💜
I love this song - thanks for taking the time out of both of your busy schedules to react to the song 👍-- being a new army ive become somewhat entranced by this group - i find their songs unique in such a way that it is never straight forward, there is always a deeper meaning the lyrics - and i like that they dont generally sing abt romance --- their songs focus a lot on self acceptance, finding your own voice and staying true to your individuality --- also ive learned although they are singing abt loving a romantic partner, their "love" songs are written for the army -- you'll come to discover as you both get to know the group -- ive never come across a group with this much connection with their fans .
Not a break up song... it about loving yourself. This album has story lines to each song to Love Yourself. RM writes some deep stuff. If you're interested look it all up. It is amazing. I like story songs, and the images created are for storylines. Many things that appear in one video will show up again in another. It is really cool.
Nice Reaction! can you guys maybe take it down a little and see what the group is about and why they have many friends from all across the world and why they are so big and heavenly talked about ?: Please react to This is BTS by xceleste, From Nobodies to Legends 2019 & who is BTS 7 members of bangtan **NOTE** if you do decide to watch Who Is BTS The 7 Members, letting you know that it’s a very long video but is so worth the watch and that you don’t have to cut it up into parts / just watch it all the way through because us ARMYS don’t care how long of a video it is when it comes to those 7 kings 🤗💜
i like it when you turn up the volume yeaaahh that's what i need thank youu.. i love the rhytm and the beat of this Fake Love.. i miss their fake love performances actually :(
New subscriber here! Glad to be here before 10k!! I’m so happy you guys react to my two favourites 😆 BTS and Little Mix 💜 good job guys, I love your enthusiasm, focus and opinions! Look forward to more reactions 💜
Thank you so much 🙏🏾💯❤️
Yess next you have to react more, BTS - ON kinetic manifesto film, BTS - Black Swan, BTS - Make it right 🙏🏻
Am loving these BTS reactions. !🥰🥰🥰
i totally agree with you that it can be a break-up song, esp for those who've been lied to, or those who had to repress their thoughts and real feelings because they feared that their partner won't accept them as they are.
Its funny to see both of your face...amaze watch their MV... Make me smile too... BTS IS THE BEST!
Thank u for reactions 💜 i hope u react behind the scenes with eng sub
“Fake love” music video is part of the storyline from BTS Universe.
Aaaaaah the song/video that made me fall in love 💜 The one that snagged my husband was On: Kinetic Manifesto Film. Definitely check it out 🙂
You guys are so amazing, thank you for appreciating BTS, borahae💜💜💜🇵🇭🇵🇭
Glad you liked this! You are very open minded in your reactions. As some has said--it's not strictly a break-up song. It's deeper and makes the point that you can't love somebody else if you are hiding your true self behind a mask. But I totally understand your interpretation. But I really feel you when you said how BTS is filling a void in the music industry. Personally, I find BTS' music great on its own, but when combined with the MV and the performance, it just works in a way you don't see with other artists. There are only a handful of artists that I would wait up all night to see the premiere of a MV--Michael Jackson was the first. BTS fits in that category.
Their music videos are all connected they got their own stories its insane
I loved your reaction! thanks for giving BTS a chance they really are very talented they compose and produce most of their songs, they also have solo works that are amazing they can react to ON KINETIC MANIFESTO and to the rap songs line cypher pt 1,2,3 and 4 are three rappers RM (leader of the group, songwriter and producer) J-HOPE (dancer leader songwriter and producer) and SUGA (known as AGUST D in his solo works producer and songwriter) and 4 vocalists JIN, JUNGKOOK, V, and JIMIN They also participate in the production and composition of their songs 💜
wait till you find out the meaning of the chocolate bars
The flow switches on their songs are just 👌 and thats what engages the listeners & u dont get bored + their deep & meaningful Lyrics! those are just a few of the many things i enjoy & love about them 💜
Great reaction👍 keep them coming!
Ps pls React to “ Save Me”
I suggest you do the MV with a live performance or dance practice together. BTS is a very exciting band especially live shows with ARMY. The energy BTS brings is infectious! Dance practice is amazing because you get to see all the choreography. Enjoy the journey guys!
Can't wait to see more of your BTS reactions
Cant wait for you guys to react to Black Swan and On Kinetic Manifesto. Coz those two are monumental and iconic songs too! BTS is the genre. Thank you for these BTS reactions 💜🔥
Yes guys I love it♥️♥️☺️
First time seeing y'all on my feed and definitely worth watching. Loved your personal take on the video. They have a video called Save Me that comes next and the one that's last in the trio is called I'm Fine. Y'all should definitely watch them as well.
Great Reaction! You Guys Should Watch The Behind The Scenes.
There is an extended version video of this song and a behind the scene that shows how some of the effects were done
Hi guys, thanksfor your reaction. You have 8 years to catch up with BTS...but it is a great journey!. BTS almost never does a song about lovers or love between a couple...it is more open and big is family, friends, etc, but the most important is about "love yourself" in first place. Please keep in mind that BTS' songs and videos have deep meanings; the lyrics have positive messages and the visual of their videos support that message and of course they have amazing productions and high technical quality, and awesome choreograpies....the they have amazing, really great live performances...check their concerts and awards performances. 💜😊
I don't see anybody say this but "Blood Sweat and Tears" is good too!
BTS is a whole new level! 07 amazing, talented artists who write and produces most of their songs. They're not puppets that just sings what they are told to sing.
3 rappers and 4 vocalists. 2 of the rappers were underground rappers before joining BTS. The vocal line is amazing as well. By the way, they sing live at the concerts and wards shows.
You guys should react to XCelest video Who is BTS - the 07 members...

Good luck, guys! I started just wanting to know their names. Now I'm a proud Army! 💜
I think y'all would really enjoy the dance practice videos they have for most of their songs as well. You can really see the choreo in those videos.
They also got me this music vid.fake love is the best. It’s very emotional at same time it’s a banger catchy song ever! ;)
Months later during their comeback ‘Love Yourself : TEAR’, BTS writes a track that talks about fake love where they realize the love they felt was fake but it’s not true. So, they express their pain & grief in their official “Fake Love” music video. In their first track “DNA” they show that we’re all connected by our DNA #BTSDNA #BTSFakeLove
"Oh I like it, it's exciting!" - love that comment. Wait till you watch BLOOD,SWEAT and TEARS :)
YOU GET IT, They fill a void that nothing else out there is doing. Please, do as many reactions to their intros as you can (Who is BTS, SUGA and spice, anything by xCeleste, Asian theory, and there is a great new series call the Rise of Bangtan), get to know who they are as individuals. We will watch and cheer you on! Then plan on some live shows, and some dance practices too!
i love your interpretation. it's a good take. music is open to interpretation. 💜 thus, their inspiration on this mv is heavily based on their bangtan universe. the song's lyrics is mainly about losing one's self to please someone else - mainly pretentious love (or fake). ☺️ but again, we can all take it how we want. 💜 i remember a pearl jam song entitled alive. when they wrote it, they meant it more as a rhetoric, full of hate. "oh i'm still alive." but, the listeners took it as an inspiring song, that despite all the troubles and heartaches, they survived... still alive. and through the years, even the meaning changed for pearl jam. ☺️
So glad to see you enjoying & appreciating
their song always say ourself ourlife not for love song. its looks like love song but think deep that talking about love myself.
In a lot of their songs that seems to be a relationship about a guy and a girl, think of it as a relationship between BTS and their fans. In this case it was more about what is expected of them as they were a group, when they were told they were betraying hip hop and wore makeup like girls. Why should they change what they do for someone else? Why should they change their image because of what society says they should be? Be yourself, don't change yourself to please others. Please yourself, love yourself. Don't change yourself to make people love you, it's a fake persona.
When you said, there was something like missing, yes! Until BTS I saw many of the American and western music videos as just a visual version of the song. BTS music videos have a story, hidden meanings, it's like watching a movie. Instead of the countless videos of guys rapping, in cars, pretty girls, been there, done that! It reminded me of when MJ would do his music videos which were like short movies! YES! Something you can watch AND listen to!
As far as you mentioned the choreography was more complex, I see this group's choreo and formations as more complex than a lot of other male groups, and a LOT more strenuous, demanding, and complex than girl groups. Girl groups are basically all the same, sway and rotate the hips, not a lot of feet movement and constant changing formations. It's more sexually oriented and simple, like cheerleader and pom pom girls, like school girls. I can mute the sound, and you can interchange most girl groups with any other girl group. BTS you can mute the sound and you will know which song they are doing just by the choreo!
