They didn't point out it was Koreans own broadcasting stations that was keeping small companies like Bighit back then away from being broadcast. Cutting their performance and not including them in variety shows unless they come from the big 3. Bang PD had no choice but to reach an audience through RUclips. Now that they've surpassed the big 3 it's just sweet karma how broadcasting stations now are trying hard to invite BTS back to their stations again.
Exactly and even namjoon himself said there's no entertainment show he wants to go and they invited celebrity to their own variety show. It already said a lot
False Fact : Everyone says that BTS become Worldwide viral because of Social Network.. True Fact : BTS is love by army because of their affectionate Personality & Love for Each other
@@esilenna8716 Thats true... Without social media we international army couldn’t even be able to Know who is BTS... But Some korean people & Haters alws say that BTS is only famous bcz of Social Media & their beautiful look makeup.. BTS Fan are all teenage girl But that's not true. I still can't forget how all the Tv shows & Celebrity used to mistreat BTS...That's why still when they say something about our Boy i feel like they Don't like that BTS is making history. .If social media was the reason then why Can't other kpop group able to make hit like bts??
@@lacherie0723 There is multiple reasons for BTS for being where they are. It is not JUST personnality OR music OR social media etc ALL of them are relevant and complementary. RM himself talked about the chance they have to be born in social media era. So about your question, there is two reasons: - Decide not to use them - Use them but poorly Other Kpop groups didn't use social media as much and/or as well as Big Hit and BTS has done (looot of interesting content such as behind the scenes, vlog, blog and all)
@@esilenna8716 Here is the thing, of course social media is the door to them. But social media would not let me stay. I've seen multitude stuff and people on social media. But I also left after a short while, because they didn't offer enough for me. After I got to know BTS I listened to many more Kpop out of curiousity, but only a few I really liked, most of them are treated like one hit wonders by me, I occasionally like one song, but I don't grow into them. Not to say that the idols don't have talent, because many obviously do, but I think that BH has really good producers and their songs and lyrics stand out more to me personally. Same with shows and variety, many groups do them, but overall BTS personalities and especially their group dynamic shines through for me. That's why I didn't left and I wanna stay here for very much longer, because as artists and people that have never let me down so far and I have big faith in them. I'm 45 y old and for a loooooong time no artist has touched me like they did. Not even my own boyband in my youth.
@@skarbuskreska I'm just saying that web offered the possibility for us to see that group incredible dynamic. BTS is phenomenal by themselves. WEB permit us to witness it.
about the dancing, J Hope and Jimin had been dancing for years before joining BigHit they both had dancing lessons and passion for dance from a young age
But Jimin also had it hard with BTS choreographies because he majored in contemporary style dancing which was not similar to the dancing style of most idols and of hoseok .
@@kavtoM he did popping in 8th grade , but then he majored in contemporary . Whereas hobi had a stronger background in hip hop and freestyle coz he was a Street dancer , that is mainly what bts did in their choreos since the beginning , that is the reason why their choreographer picked hobi as best. I don't mean to say that jiminie is bad but was initially less experienced. He is incredible too specially because he fuses the elements of different dance forms to bring a more impactful performance.
One of the misconcept about bts is thinking bts success is bc of social media. NO.I have never seen an army that knew bts cause of sns. They know that bts use twitter only one or two months after becoming army. Nowadays ,they don't even use much.
Everyone loves their music and performances but army also love their personalities and chemistry that is primarily showed through social media like their youtube channel "Bangtan tv". That's it. No need to get offended
@@lorenaa.6920 I don't really wanna get offended. But they say like sns is one of main reasons of bts's success. People really need to stop labellings bts's effort and talents with other things .Surely ,we love their personalities,chemistry but do we listen to songs and buy songs just bc we like their personality? I don't know about others. But ,for me,my answer is NO. There are a lot of idols I love just bc of their personality . But I never stan if their songs don't hit me. The main reasons of bts's success have always been their songs,their lyrics,their voices ,their stories and themselves.
True I’ve joined twt after my sister tell me the screenshots and videos on Insta were from twt and BTS use the platform... this was 3 moths after I discover them
Ofcourse it's not just purely through social media.. But from the beginning, bts started to gather international fans with the use of social media and youtube, in their pre-debut, they already have fans waiting for them since they promote themselves through social media, maybe that's what they meant. Being smart by using social medias and youtube to promote bts, youtube with their blogs, and behind the clips that enables fans to see their personality, and bts is active in communicating with fans through social media, for me that's what they meant. I think bts being caring for fans as they always try to communicate with us (especially during early debut, they literally reply back in twitter).. Well, in my case I became a fan after some video about their success, I actually started of liking the artist themselves and not the music first. (i'm not that into kpop before, Id even understand why people lile them before, well I'm glad I understand, and bts was my first fave group, just sharing)
The choice of using social media also related to bts situation back then. They were underrated group coming from small company. It's not easy to appear in tv anyway. At that time they use social media solely to interact with their fan. From my observation, they didn't seem to expect to hit any popularity. It was the only choice back then as tv channel only give opportunities to group coming from big company.
exactly. they didn't target to be famous worldwide. they just really wanted to connect and communicate with their fans and what else would they use aside from social media? it's ridiculous how they always point out that bts success is because of social media when how else would they communicate with their fans if not through social media?
Some K-Media tends to brush out out BTS achievement by stating this social media point. The thing they missed out is social media is only a platform/ tools to communicate. The important thing is the content and messaging. It's all about 7 members in bts that actually attract people to follow them. It's their own talent, personalities and individualities that put today outcome.
BTS I never ever thought i could falling in deeply in LUV nor even dream of, but here I am now I can't live without BTS music in my daily life. My son introduced me few years ago and since then i was addicted and still am. BTS is an INSPIRATION and True LEGENDS Bang Si Hyuk thank you very much for your existence in this Galaxy and your precious BANGTAN boys. Forever luv💜💜💜
Very interesting point of view about BTS but exscuse me I don't think that their popularity is caused only from social media... I am a 7month army from Greece and my meeting with them started from Spotify. When I put some of their songs to my playlist I started to search about them... and thanks to You tube I saw how talented, hard working and beautiful personalities are. And their beat, their lyrics, the choreography, the different style of genres. I believe that BTS is a category of their own!!!!! So it's not only the social media effect... do not annihilate all the hard work they have done all this time ... They don't deserve it.
Everything about BTS is Spiritual. They were fated to meet and be together. Their looks.... dance moves.... the way they just transform once they get on stage and do their job so professionally and with intent. I would like to know how the Founder of BTS .... the esteemed Mr. Bang.... got them together..... He was a man with a True Vision 👏👏👏👏👏👏
But BTS work hard to be who they are,they stayed together in hardships and fight their way up to stardom. They are the reason Bang PD have a strong company today
No u took it wrong he said its mainly because of that cuz u need something like a social platform to share your work right that’s what they are saying even if the product and music is good but if they don’t use appropriate means to spread then it won’t reach out to ppl I know it hurts to credit the social plate form but what can we do we are watching everything related to them through social media only right for international army it’s very important and the topic was what is the main reason for global fans so I as an international army will say it is appropriate to say that social media is major factor in their content reaching out to us
@@btsuploadssite2908 I am aware but the point is that when it comes to other famous people, no one is mentioning social media, just when it comes to bts
I think it's more because of their interesting storyline and awesome music and also their journey is really like a movie like from nobodies to the biggest boy band in the world, it's crazy how much they went through. social media is just a cherry on top so we can see their goofy personalities lol
To all the haters our there. Let me say this ti to all of you. Bts use social media as part of their marking strategy. Remember that they are the group that was cut out of broadcasts and variety shows. They are also the group that experience lots of discriminations and hate. TO ALL THW BITCHES OUT THERE. SOCIAL MEDIA IS A MARKETING TOOL. ITS CALLED MEKETING.MARKETING BITCHES!!!!
An analysis already said it, BTS is already famous even before but they are more known outside their own country. Others think that they are not famous because they are not famous in korea.
Me to think like that...they already famous in other country other than korea...they really famous in other country....after i need u they become popular in korea...and now they both.....💜💜😍
I heard INU while shopping at a mall, and that song stayed in my playlist for almost a year. I don’t even know their face that time, it’s just pure music that attracts me, they have very good musics.
Ikr!! I need u was the second song I heard after Dope and I was literally hooked on to it for weeks. Neither did I know their names or their anything but just the music. Just the song was enough to make me stan them.
As an International ARMY, I am grateful to Bang BD for allowing the boys the freedom to express themselves musically and honestly. We, ARMY, are able to relate and connect with BTS on whole another level, despite speaking different languages and having different backgrounds. BTS are out here being ambassadors of South Korea and its culture. They are very proud South Korean boys whom have broken every barrier in the music industry in Western world and had transcended languages and races. On top of that, they have healed and inspired millions of people around the world. And for that, we will be Forever grateful! They say that you will find BTS right when you needed them.💜
Their success is not because social media, they have success for the quality of their music, lyrics, their talent and their personalities plus the effort and hard work of them and their team. Yes, social media helped them to get noticed by some people but if you don't have something special you don't make it and less at the level they do.
I believe it is a recipe of all aspects. But most their determination and hard work with humility and talent too. All have been cultivated and catapulted to the top by various outlets. Love all them guys!
No one said that. Everyone loves their music and performances but also they love their personalities that is primarily showed through social media like their youtube channel "Bangtan tv". That's it. No need to get offended
@@lorenaa.6920 It is really a good thing you see things positively. I admire you. But they specialize "bts use sns ,that's what put them on top,that's what make them possible" But it's not. .It may involve a part. But it has never been the reason or a big part of their success .There are many idols out there who communicate with fans through sns and youtube even before bts.All succeed? I don't mean to bash the program .But I want them to know.I'm just sick of people labelling bts's effort with other things.
being successful just because you use social media is such a shallow reason. that's not why armys stanned bts. it's because of their sincerity, passion, good music and personality. they didn't just become popular but they became artists with the biggest fandom. and it doesn't take such a shallow reason like "using social media"(which everybody does) for someone to become a dedicated and passionate fan of an artist.
L J he meant it gave them the exposure , you wouldn't know they existed without it. In SK the big celebs get big cuz of the media like TV stations , movies , radio , etc exposure. BtS didn't have that so they use social media aka RUclips , twitter, etc but the most prominent specially at that time was RUclips.
@@mev9752 exactly but it's just a medium/tool for them to show their selves but the reason armys fell in love with them was not because of social media. just like how we see a lot of stuff in social media but we don't fall in love with everything we see in it. and just like how everyone shown on television doesn't get famous. it was not because of social media, it was because of bts. i didn't discover bts through social media even though i was active on social media back then, i discovered them because they were introduced to me by my sister and i got entertained. I wasn't even planning to stan them but i did because i fell in love with everything about them.
Bang PD is a true Genius and Visionary. They went through countless chnages in terms of members before they finally settled on our seven. his insticts about the boys were spot on.
As an international army i would love to point out the main reason i stan them is not social media. I accidentally come through N.O once when i'm searching for some new music and decided i love their style and decided to dig more about them. I gave all of their songs a try (it was early 2015) and i just love everything and decided to become an army. It took me exactly 7 months to find out that they were actually active on twitter during that time so i decided to make myself a twitter account. Also, they are not that active on social media nowadays so i believe social media is not the main factor. It's more like their music is the one that makes all army around the world to gather on social media. Not the other way around. Not to mention that they had no chance back then. They keep being cut off from broadcasting, and the only way they can communicate with fans was through social media.
Me too,only found them by accident ❤these people try to give them now a open platform, look how hard they had to work to be fully recognized in their country, what a shame and above all they generate trillions into their country,tourism put their country on the map,and how do their country said thank-you, send them to army so the world should stop making a fuzz,but they wrong,they will come back stronger than ever,because their fan based called army will see to that,they are world wide recognized, bang pd may have found them but they work hard through everything to be who they are today,im praying 🙏 🤲 for them❤❤
Daily Practice was for 15-17 hours of their whole life as BTS! They deserve everything! I love their songs and lyrics besides dancing! Their personalities, Love BTS forever.
Amazing, so interesting! Greetings from Tricity in Poland 😘 BTS changed a lot of lives and we all know more about Korea! I am sociologist 40 years old and I love BTS
Their popularity is due to the CONNECTION we felt towards their story, lyrics & bts, so, I think they said social media cos we came to know more bou them thru it, like Behind the scene, america hustle life, run bts, many came to research more & grow more interest in bts cos We see their love, talent & low results..
Everyone is talking about heights but that's actually Bang PD's goal of making his BTS known all over the world. For BTS, it's not just one member wanting to be the best he can be and be more. All 7 members share that passion to be well known worldwide, so they have to try as hard as they can and polish every move in every routine. When they practice just as hard, they did it as if it's end of the world. So much that fog covers the entire mirror and they were still not done. They didn't slack off nor give a sloppy performance when it's just practice. They're totally serious with it as a team. When it's time to perform, it goes to show that they put out more than 100% than they gave off during practices. Plus add Bang PD's faith and commitment with them, BTS has become unreachable now. They're legends of the current era. MJ paved the way for pop artists first. But sad to say that during his time, hardly an Asian pop artist makes it to the U.S Billboard. But then years later, BTS made it. They did it and paved way for more Asian artists to come. KPop is now well known worldwide because of them. BTS are the pioneers of making KPop well known worldwide and social media played as one of the significant factors of that success. But to say social media? Alone? I completely disagree to this, because while social media was chosen by Bang PD-nim to market his band, what he actually never realized was that while doing so, many Worldwide Armies have already passed on the discovery to others through just their music, others hearing them for the first time on the radio, others seeing them for the first time on TV (not just korean stations but also Billboard Awards, Grammys, GMA, James Corden, etc.) Others in youtube, twitter, or just coming across Google/Yahoo news. Newspapers, magazines. Others even just through word of mouth and the news passed on to other groups of people. It just came together. So it's best to say that apart from social media, there are avenues that made BTS known and it's thanks to the people, internet, radio, and television. 😎
Pleaseee, ARMYs became ARMYs because of BTS' sincerity. No matter how good you are with SNS, if you aren't sincere, people aren't gonna idolize you like that. You may fake at first, but you can't keep an act for a very long time. People aren't stupid. Plus, it's all those K Media's fault why BTS didn't achieve the level of popularity they so deserve those times. No, BTS was not a flop, they didn't just suddenly blew up. They were legendary from the beginning and it was only a matter of time for the world to see that.
The thing that they said bts great popularity because of social media makes me want to punch in their face. Babe no! They got recognisation because they were talented.
I only hope that Koreans will know how big BTS's impact on the global market because of BTSxARMY hard work. Although at the beginning of their career, many underestimated them and struggled against prejudice and media play in korea. At least, at this point, korean citizens can appreciate BTS more. Cause it is enough from haters to always underestimate all of BTS's achievements, but please not citizens of BTS's home country too doing like that to BTS. BTS's member are all from Korean, not even from Seoul. You don't have to love BTS, but please respect and appreciate their work and achievements. Borahaee💜
I'm thinking of that where were all those praises for BTS songs such as DOPE, I NEED YOU, back then, they are the same songs nothing has changed. Back then even if BTS had the best songs, no one admitted that, just because they were from a small company, they cut their performances, they made them go through a tough time, they accused them with hundred things, they didn't want them in the TV shows, but now everything has changed. Everyone is trying so hard to invite them to their shows, but it's not that easy, KARMA IS AN ARMY. That time when they left the hamburgers on Jungkook's hands I can't forget that moment, everyone treated BTS so bad, without thinking that they are humans too. And now they're saying they are proud of them, no need sweetie thanks. BTS paved the way, they introduced Kpop to the world, but no one admits that, if I didn't meet BTS I wouldn't have known that kpop is existing. Everyone is saying that they aren't a kpop group, just because they made a full English song, but after the grammy nominations, they switched so fast, now they are saying that this is a win for kpop, no bi**h this is a win for BTS and ARMY only.... Everyone treated them so bad, but now they are afraid to say a single word about BTS because of ARMY, everyone is saying sorry ARMY we didn't wanted to say that, we're gonna protect our boys with all the cost. NEVER FORGET THIS "They were only seven, but they aren't anymore" they have million people who will stay by their side till the eternity. As they said "WE ARE BULLETPROOF"....
RM, Jhope, Suga...all genius in making music..with their big boss Bang Pd..the big revelation here is how Bang Pd made a marketing strategy that BTS paved the way to the top..Bang is a great boss here..through a give and take process and freedom of choice..their relationship has no barriers as boss and employee..so awesome..
It is very true that BANG PD is a Genius. Superb choreographer, the Staff have worked hard. However, the fact of having selected precisely these 7 wonderful young people, facilitated and provided the necessary synergy for all the success that BTS is reaping. These 7 young people are great too and they planted passion, talent, willingness, sincerity towards their fans, ARMYS, in each project. God arranged that all the pieces form the wonderful magic that is BTS.
After reading a lot of comments, I have to say one thing - why people feel attacked when they say BTS has reached international audiences with social media? I mean, it's not wrong. Do people forget that RUclips is also a type of social media, not only instagram or twitter? They are not saying BTS songs aren't good, they are saying people from other countries heard about BTS through social media, it could be by solely watching their mv, It doens't need to mean that they watched the personal content or run episodes prior to their music!!!! I am an international army that only got to know BTS through youtube. I watched a few mv's and from that I wanted to know who they were, and then I just fell in love with their personalities and their message.
Till BTS, i haven't seen personal and backstage content from other groups, i'm talking about 2010-2012, and the vlogging wasn't a thing back then... my opinion is that the message that BTS deliver, makes the difference, they are speaking about their struggles, about being accepted as how u are ( which most of us have this issue, me included), having love problems... and can't recall other groups singing about this.
But it doesn't seem like music video is the social media they are talking about. Every other groups and singers have their own music video too but we don't see anyone being close to be as big as them. Other idols and singers are on social media too,, but they don't come as succesful as them. So the only answer left is they are genuine to their passion for music which lead us to understand about their endearing personality. It's not a "Thanks to social media" thing. If it's about social media then everyone would have atleast 1M pre-order when they do a comeback or release new content.
All other groups used social media too They attented at all famous korean variety shows and plus You tube too, They were more famous in asia, Why didn't those shit lipsync groups like bigbang exo world wide famous??? It is about music, BTS produced wrotten own music !! That is why All other 400 kpop groups used social media But only BTS communicated with their fsns
@@btspavedthewaythefact157, that's it: communication!!!! And how do they do that??? Through social media.... bangtan bombs in RUclips, their fancafe, v-live, twitter, weverse, instagram. Other groups may do that today but I've never heard of another group having so much content like they do a few years ago.
I have been army since last few years now but I still hasn't discovered the exact reason why they are so successful. Is it because of their hardwork, talent, passion to prove themselves, sincerity, far-sighted thinking, luck, staff, trainers, teamwork or connection their with Armys? Maybe there isn't a single factor, it's the combination of many things, we can't trace their success and give credit to only "SNS". It might be one of the factor but definitely not the only one. 💜💜💜
Because of ARMY's all over the world so BTS was very successful and love them so much and at the age of 50, am so so proud am BTS ARMY and support them all the way.. Love from Philippines 🇵🇭
For the reaction videos to 쩔어, the editors ignored all the male reactors?? There are so many BTS reactors who are male! Obviously this video would be different if created by someone without preconceived ideas. I don't mean offense.
You uploaded this in 2020 and you still think bts only well-known because social media is so funny. Look at how many kpop groups made twitter account after bts won top social award back in 2017. Have they achieved the same thing because of the social media? Ofc no 🤷🏻♀️
Like seriously I didn't even have twitter to know about them . I installed twitter later after becoming army just to follow them. Also they don't even have insta account of their own unlike other artists This is so stupid to say that they are famous bcoz of social media when they only put their updates only on twitter and that to in a single account 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ 💜💜
@@jkbunnysmilekilledme7 true. i think bts and their company used the platforms available to them in a very smart way to reach out to fans and to people. besides, they produce quality content that pulled more people to become fans of bts. to add to that, bts members don't hesitate to show who they truly are , they are very genuine, not to mention talented, professional, very skilled and dedicated in their craft, and just very good human beings. all these things made me a fan of bts (i never liked and listened to kpop before, but bts made it different for me).
@@jkbunnysmilekilledme7 Lol me. I never used twitter before. I dw the bird apps just cuz that's the only apps dat they used. I know them cuz of their music tho. So, thus utube consider as social media then?
it's absurd to say it was mainly thru sns bc BTS made it to the bb charts early on in 2014 or 15 which was lucks play basically (obvi the album that topped at no. 5 was amazing but it was rare for a 1 year old kpop bg to enter the BB chart) and by 2015-16 before wings era they were well known in SK and eventually, internationally after their wings tour which further contributed to their presence at the AMAs and BBMAs in 2017 in conclusion it's all bc of BHs promotion and BH BTS and ARMYs hard work
When the MC said "even if the product is good, if the channel is wrong, it will never get known" this is how I feel about TheRose (the band if you don't know them check it out please😉)
Visionaries that somehow got together to create what BTS is now. And then they attract a fandom that somehow takes what good they send out and magnify it around the world. As Pinoys are fond of saying, ‘Sana all!’ What a world it would be.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 💜for Bang PD
Oh come on..BTS has made this far is because of their efforts and passion for music not because of social media(social media is just their stepping stone).There's a lot of artist out there who uses social media but not big as BTS.
As for me they they became famous cause of their songs & talents. I love the melody & the lyrics of their songs. They are not just a kpop idol.They are all talented artist.
Okay thanks for the info but I'm really done listening to everyone saying BTS reached global success duw to their use of social media. Tell me ARMY who here stanned BTS because of TWITTER? As for me. I always knew of them. An army introduced me to them. I saw their music video. Got drawn into it because it was unlike anything ive seen. It was like Art. When visuals and music and meaning came together. It is only after that I got curious and got into everything else. Let's give BTS the credit they deserve. It isn't just ARMY interactions that makes us love them. They are very talented. It is a cherry on top that they choose to be sincere and communicate freely with us.
Like seriously I didn't even have twitter to know about them . I installed twitter later after becoming army just to follow them. Also they don't even have insta account of their own unlike other artists This is so stupid to say that they are famous bcoz of social media when they only put their updates only on twitter and that to in a single account 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️💜💜
@@jkbunnysmilekilledme7 yes I also don't have twitter. I did not get recommendations also. There music is very different from my taste. Someone introduced me to their music. I feel like social media has helped in awareness ABOUT BTS and to know how popular they are more than getting new fans.
@@ashashashi1 exactly!! It's like other artists using social media and being famous is their hardwork and BTS using twitter and being famous is coz of society media.🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
@@jkbunnysmilekilledme7 yeah. Sometimes I feel really bad when people have a preconceived idea about bts and army. I was one of them but frankly it made me think of how shitty i was as a person because I had no idea what I was judging without even seeing anything. So when I actually listened to them I felt like I need to be a better human being. Truly. There are many things that helped making our bond with band stronger and it is NOT just social media.
The funniest fact about this is how koreans in general used to look down on them, even made fun of me for buying their album back in the day, and now everyone is such a big fan. I can't help but just watch and laugh :)
*They're keeping their spit at the apex of the mountain by constantly releasing new songs* Excuse Me!! did a BTS anti wrote this?? LOL BTS literally dropped 1 album in 2019 and took 11 months to drop 7 yet no one could even get close to their numbers
The thing is that many also can't accept the fact that BTS aren't just famous because of SNS, visuals or whatever but because of their (MESSAGES IN THEIR) MUSIC, TALENT, HARD WORK, their PERSONALITIES etc. In addition to that, even if media knew of BTS' hardships and struggles they face(d) (K- and western) media wouldn't admit that they were the reason for most of the problems like for example hate since day minus one and until now they are still treated unfairly. BTS outsold and outcharted others and still aren't nominated in the categories they should have been nominated in not to mention that they would actually have the potential to win those awards. So, Award shows etc are basically ignoring them until Armys get loud and fight back with FACTS and EVIDENCE. So, I totally agree that people should hire Armys to give correct input. (But as I pointed out it seems like they DON'T WANT to provide correct and complete* information about BTS' journey because media would get exposed) *of course they can't include every single detail but you know what I mean
i really wish tae say "stop talking. dead skin cells are coming out of your mouth" right to their faces. belittling their music into social media feels so wrong.
BTS used Social Media effectively to show the world how great their music was. Their music is good because they had hitman bang and Pdogg. Just like how JYP has JYP, YG has YG and SM has Lee Soo Man as star producers. Bang Si Hyuk was also a star producer he knew what he was doing.
I hope broadcasts media took male fans reaction too in this video because there's also a lot of them loving bts music, not just female fans .. army are diverse fandom among age, race, nationally, gender , careers .. I hope media take note this info ☺ it's a bit missing if we left out male fans in this bts fandom..
This will sound weird but; Thank you Korean ,Media for your shortsightedness and selfishness.Through it you made Bang PD Share thing amazing talented super yet humble humans with us.Your denied them home coverage which made them opt for social media which is world wide.This led to the birth of a widewide funbase which truly loves this young men and fiercly them like a mother does her young ones.I am proud to be one of them.
7:18 Mistranslation or misinformation ? They don't create most of choreo, the fire one for example is from Keone Madrid I'm an army and love BTS, please spread right info
Supposed to be they should be proud of their success because they are Korean kpop group / BTS but the Media in Korea is trying hard to destroy them,Thank God the Armys around the World is Protecting our Boys, 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Forever BTS Army
we og glad met bts bts boys way earlier than fan right now(they totally started everything from bottom)they working hard on it to be this level right now
One of the hosts mentioning that social media was one of the factors that made Bangtan famous is true. That is a fact and they didn't imply it was the main factor but as ONE of the factors. However, I find it very misleading that as if they are implying that Bang PD-nim planned this even way before, that using social media was something planned. In reality, they never explicitly planned it. As some of the comments here said, Bighit was a small company at that time with limited power to be able to promote their group on broadcasting stations. As a course of action, they filmed behind the scenes clips of their daily lives through Bangtan bombs uploaded on their youtube channel. Take note that during this time, not a lot of idol groups have free and accessible behind the scenes contents. They were just provided the freedom to show their self, as also shown with the members having a Twitter account.
People trying to discredit BTS success by mentioning social media and their face is so annoying. Every kpop idol has access to social media they were not debuted on stone age and also most of their members are very handsome. BTS becomes successful because of there pure hard work and there heavenly personality. I am not saying others wouldn't worked hard. It is just BTS is special and they are sincere.
The fact that on 2014, just a year after debut Bts had their red bullet concert AROUND THE WORLD. And how they got to have a massive concert for Hyyh pt.2 cause of fans' demand worldwide doesnt sound like they've become a hit after DNA bru. And it definitely isnt because Bang pd aimed for the global market as well. You should get your facts right. Even 1 year old armys know that.
Its not SNS honey, every idols using SNS tho. Its all about their music and lyric. Thats why we can connect through theri music. Their not just sing a love song like others.
i see some armys disagree to the fact that bts success is partly because of social media, ngl that is true. they showed their personality trough social media which is why many armys felt the sense of close, friendliness with them+ their songs that are extemely meaningful. so yes social media did play a quite good part for our boys, due to the fact that other companies where blocking/hack them to not being broadcast in SK
It may be a part.But it has never been the main reason. We can admit the power of social media.BUT only bts use social media?And ALL idols who use succeed like them? I mean they could put it in a better way.The way they say is weird. There are many other important reasons behind bts's success they can point out other than sns.
@@epiphanyp4388 yes ur totally right. i was talking mostly of the comments that i read, but what u said is totally right, bts did not only succeed with sns as we all armys know, but yeah sns helped as well.
I agree.. But, I think the reason why they've said that sns plays a big part is because of the beginning of career of bts(they kust have consider it crucial), as you've said they couldn't broadcast in sk, so the way for fans to reach them out better is only through sns, and other platforms, that made it possible for them to communicate. It would have been better if the person(in the vid) elaborate the sns part. Since, bts music is sooo good, and their performance is amazing, and so their personality..
@@StarLight-lo3mr The reason I'm mad is not bc I'm denying social media's power .but bc the way they mention it.There are many idols using different platforms to promote,Sns,media,yt,variety shows,companys and sometimes even seniors.But when these folks say about these idols,they never mention these platforms as the main reason of their success. They do only with bts.And they do it every single time. That's what make me mad.
I'm a little confused cos this man seemed to be answering for/as Bang PD, but it's all good :) also, seems like Bang made most of the really good title tracks wow what a guy.... add to him a group of genius producers including RM Suga and J-Hope... no wonder it's a winning formula.
I like Bts there dance is beautiful I saw the food it looks good I enjoy what Bts tennis everything they do together is inspired and amazing They are Family’s To each other that what they are Kroine people respect honor them I will support there community and people over there Jesus Christ almighty lord god blessed kroon people Amen❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 Sincerely your prayer warrior Christ sister fan Judy
They didn't point out it was Koreans own broadcasting stations that was keeping small companies like Bighit back then away from being broadcast. Cutting their performance and not including them in variety shows unless they come from the big 3. Bang PD had no choice but to reach an audience through RUclips. Now that they've surpassed the big 3 it's just sweet karma how broadcasting stations now are trying hard to invite BTS back to their stations again.
Preach💜👏
IKR?! ha ha ha i was just tsk, tsk , tsking
for real they all acting surprised 😭
Exactly and even namjoon himself said there's no entertainment show he wants to go and they invited celebrity to their own variety show. It already said a lot
Yeah, they missed this poin tho
False Fact : Everyone says that BTS become Worldwide viral because of Social Network..
True Fact : BTS is love by army because of their affectionate Personality & Love for Each other
Yeah but we know that thanks to social media allowing them to publish content to the world
Before 2005 or so they could'nt had been that famous
@@esilenna8716 Thats true... Without social media we international army couldn’t even be able to Know who is BTS...
But Some korean people & Haters alws say that BTS is only famous bcz of Social Media & their beautiful look makeup.. BTS Fan are all teenage girl But that's not true.
I still can't forget how all the Tv shows & Celebrity used to mistreat BTS...That's why still when they say something about our Boy i feel like they Don't like that BTS is making history.
.If social media was the reason then why Can't other kpop group able to make hit like bts??
@@lacherie0723
There is multiple reasons for BTS for being where they are. It is not JUST personnality OR music OR social media etc ALL of them are relevant and complementary. RM himself talked about the chance they have to be born in social media era.
So about your question, there is two reasons:
- Decide not to use them
- Use them but poorly
Other Kpop groups didn't use social media as much and/or as well as Big Hit and BTS has done (looot of interesting content such as behind the scenes, vlog, blog and all)
@@esilenna8716 Here is the thing, of course social media is the door to them. But social media would not let me stay. I've seen multitude stuff and people on social media. But I also left after a short while, because they didn't offer enough for me. After I got to know BTS I listened to many more Kpop out of curiousity, but only a few I really liked, most of them are treated like one hit wonders by me, I occasionally like one song, but I don't grow into them. Not to say that the idols don't have talent, because many obviously do, but I think that BH has really good producers and their songs and lyrics stand out more to me personally. Same with shows and variety, many groups do them, but overall BTS personalities and especially their group dynamic shines through for me. That's why I didn't left and I wanna stay here for very much longer, because as artists and people that have never let me down so far and I have big faith in them. I'm 45 y old and for a loooooong time no artist has touched me like they did. Not even my own boyband in my youth.
@@skarbuskreska I'm just saying that web offered the possibility for us to see that group incredible dynamic.
BTS is phenomenal by themselves.
WEB permit us to witness it.
about the dancing, J Hope and Jimin had been dancing for years before joining BigHit they both had dancing lessons and passion for dance from a young age
True
But Jimin also had it hard with BTS choreographies because he majored in contemporary style dancing which was not similar to the dancing style of most idols and of hoseok .
@@OK-nl2gm i'm sure Jimin did pop locking way before contemporary
@@kavtoM he did popping in 8th grade , but then he majored in contemporary .
Whereas hobi had a stronger background in hip hop and freestyle coz he was a Street dancer , that is mainly what bts did in their choreos since the beginning , that is the reason why their choreographer picked hobi as best.
I don't mean to say that jiminie is bad but was initially less experienced. He is incredible too specially because he fuses the elements of different dance forms to bring a more impactful performance.
@@OK-nl2gm I always think: Imagine being Jimin and being considered the 2nd best dancer...
One of the misconcept about bts is thinking bts success is bc of social media. NO.I have never seen an army that knew bts cause of sns. They know that bts use twitter only one or two months after becoming army. Nowadays ,they don't even use much.
There may be many reasons that make us army.But the only thing that keep us as ARMY is their songs and their voices.
Everyone loves their music and performances but army also love their personalities and chemistry that is primarily showed through social media like their youtube channel "Bangtan tv". That's it. No need to get offended
@@lorenaa.6920 I don't really wanna get offended. But they say like sns is one of main reasons of bts's success. People really need to stop labellings bts's effort and talents with other things .Surely ,we love their personalities,chemistry but do we listen to songs and buy songs just bc we like their personality? I don't know about others. But ,for me,my answer is NO.
There are a lot of idols I love just bc of their personality . But I never stan if their songs don't hit me.
The main reasons of bts's success have always been their songs,their lyrics,their voices ,their stories and themselves.
True I’ve joined twt after my sister tell me the screenshots and videos on Insta were from twt and BTS use the platform... this was 3 moths after I discover them
Ofcourse it's not just purely through social media.. But from the beginning, bts started to gather international fans with the use of social media and youtube, in their pre-debut, they already have fans waiting for them since they promote themselves through social media, maybe that's what they meant. Being smart by using social medias and youtube to promote bts, youtube with their blogs, and behind the clips that enables fans to see their personality, and bts is active in communicating with fans through social media, for me that's what they meant. I think bts being caring for fans as they always try to communicate with us (especially during early debut, they literally reply back in twitter).. Well, in my case I became a fan after some video about their success, I actually started of liking the artist themselves and not the music first. (i'm not that into kpop before, Id even understand why people lile them before, well I'm glad I understand, and bts was my first fave group, just sharing)
The choice of using social media also related to bts situation back then. They were underrated group coming from small company. It's not easy to appear in tv anyway. At that time they use social media solely to interact with their fan. From my observation, they didn't seem to expect to hit any popularity. It was the only choice back then as tv channel only give opportunities to group coming from big company.
exactly. they didn't target to be famous worldwide. they just really wanted to connect and communicate with their fans and what else would they use aside from social media? it's ridiculous how they always point out that bts success is because of social media when how else would they communicate with their fans if not through social media?
Wow...now it's more make sense. i almost fall into that things if i not read your comment 👍
Some K-Media tends to brush out out BTS achievement by stating this social media point. The thing they missed out is social media is only a platform/ tools to communicate. The important thing is the content and messaging. It's all about 7 members in bts that actually attract people to follow them. It's their own talent, personalities and individualities that put today outcome.
Thanks to those biases tv station, BTS are bigger than those who came from big 3. BTS SWAG!! BANG PD SWAG!!! ARMY SWAG!!!!
BTS I never ever thought i could falling in deeply in LUV nor even dream of, but here I am now I can't live without BTS music in my daily life. My son introduced me few years ago and since then i was addicted and still am. BTS is an INSPIRATION and True LEGENDS
Bang Si Hyuk thank you very much for your existence in this Galaxy and your precious BANGTAN boys.
Forever luv💜💜💜
Very interesting point of view about BTS but exscuse me I don't think that their popularity is caused only from social media... I am a 7month army from Greece and my meeting with them started from Spotify. When I put some of their songs to my playlist I started to search about them... and thanks to You tube I saw how talented, hard working and beautiful personalities are. And their beat, their lyrics, the choreography, the different style of genres. I believe that BTS is a category of their own!!!!!
So it's not only the social media effect... do not annihilate all the hard work they have done all this time ... They don't deserve it.
Everything about BTS is Spiritual. They were fated to meet and be together. Their looks.... dance moves.... the way they just transform once they get on stage and do their job so professionally and with intent. I would like to know how the Founder of BTS .... the esteemed Mr. Bang.... got them together..... He was a man with a True Vision 👏👏👏👏👏👏
But BTS work hard to be who they are,they stayed together in hardships and fight their way up to stardom. They are the reason Bang PD have a strong company today
If it's the social media then everyone would be Billboard No.1 Singer by now😭
But to say that they become popular because of social media.. it’s not like the other kpop idols didn’t have access to the same social media as bts
Agree lol. It is destined for bts to become worldwide superstars.
No u took it wrong he said its mainly because of that cuz u need something like a social platform to share your work right that’s what they are saying even if the product and music is good but if they don’t use appropriate means to spread then it won’t reach out to ppl I know it hurts to credit the social plate form but what can we do we are watching everything related to them through social media only right for international army it’s very important and the topic was what is the main reason for global fans so I as an international army will say it is appropriate to say that social media is major factor in their content reaching out to us
@@btsuploadssite2908 I am aware but the point is that when it comes to other famous people, no one is mentioning social media, just when it comes to bts
I think it's more because of their interesting storyline and awesome music and also their journey is really like a movie like from nobodies to the biggest boy band in the world, it's crazy how much they went through. social media is just a cherry on top so we can see their goofy personalities lol
To all the haters our there. Let me say this ti to all of you. Bts use social media as part of their marking strategy. Remember that they are the group that was cut out of broadcasts and variety shows. They are also the group that experience lots of discriminations and hate. TO ALL THW BITCHES OUT THERE. SOCIAL MEDIA IS A MARKETING TOOL. ITS CALLED MEKETING.MARKETING BITCHES!!!!
An analysis already said it, BTS is already famous even before but they are more known outside their own country. Others think that they are not famous because they are not famous in korea.
Do you know the name of the video, i want to watch it too, the analysis
@@you-know-whoofficials9932 ruclips.net/video/HGgdl--y_Kg/видео.html
Me to think like that...they already famous in other country other than korea...they really famous in other country....after i need u they become popular in korea...and now they both.....💜💜😍
I heard INU while shopping at a mall, and that song stayed in my playlist for almost a year. I don’t even know their face that time, it’s just pure music that attracts me, they have very good musics.
Ikr!! I need u was the second song I heard after Dope and I was literally hooked on to it for weeks. Neither did I know their names or their anything but just the music. Just the song was enough to make me stan them.
Same! It took me a long period of time to recognize their face but I loved their music.
😢😚☺💜
As an International ARMY, I am grateful to Bang BD for allowing the boys the freedom to express themselves musically and honestly. We, ARMY, are able to relate and connect with BTS on whole another level, despite speaking different languages and having different backgrounds.
BTS are out here being ambassadors of South Korea and its culture. They are very proud South Korean boys whom have broken every barrier in the music industry in Western world and had transcended languages and races.
On top of that, they have healed and inspired millions of people around the world. And for that, we will be Forever grateful! They say that you will find BTS right when you needed them.💜
bruh korean media mistreated bts and now yall are trying to use their name for fame? i cant even laugh this is so sad
I only discovered them 2 years ago. Now i'm a 66 year old die hard ARMY. Seriously, their music is way above average.
Their success is not because social media, they have success for the quality of their music, lyrics, their talent and their personalities plus the effort and hard work of them and their team. Yes, social media helped them to get noticed by some people but if you don't have something special you don't make it and less at the level they do.
I don't think so someone can became an instant fan bc of social media.I stan BTS because their music/songs helps me to stand up and motivates me.

I believe it is a recipe of all aspects. But most their determination and hard work with humility and talent too. All have been cultivated and catapulted to the top by various outlets. Love all them guys!
No one idolize someone just bc they use sns.WTF😆😆
No one said that.
Everyone loves their music and performances but also they love their personalities that is primarily showed through social media like their youtube channel "Bangtan tv". That's it. No need to get offended
@@lorenaa.6920 It is really a good thing you see things positively. I admire you. But they specialize "bts use sns ,that's what put them on top,that's what make them possible" But it's not.
.It may involve a part. But it has never been the reason or a big part of their success .There are many idols out there who communicate with fans through sns and youtube even before bts.All succeed?
I don't mean to bash the program .But I want them to know.I'm just sick of people labelling bts's effort with other things.
being successful just because you use social media is such a shallow reason. that's not why armys stanned bts. it's because of their sincerity, passion, good music and personality. they didn't just become popular but they became artists with the biggest fandom. and it doesn't take such a shallow reason like "using social media"(which everybody does) for someone to become a dedicated and passionate fan of an artist.
L J he meant it gave them the exposure , you wouldn't know they existed without it. In SK the big celebs get big cuz of the media like TV stations , movies , radio , etc exposure. BtS didn't have that so they use social media aka RUclips , twitter, etc but the most prominent specially at that time was RUclips.
@@mev9752 exactly but it's just a medium/tool for them to show their selves but the reason armys fell in love with them was not because of social media. just like how we see a lot of stuff in social media but we don't fall in love with everything we see in it. and just like how everyone shown on television doesn't get famous. it was not because of social media, it was because of bts. i didn't discover bts through social media even though i was active on social media back then, i discovered them because they were introduced to me by my sister and i got entertained. I wasn't even planning to stan them but i did because i fell in love with everything about them.
BTS 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Paved The Way 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Bang PD is a true Genius and Visionary. They went through countless chnages in terms of members before they finally settled on our seven. his insticts about the boys were spot on.
As an international army i would love to point out the main reason i stan them is not social media. I accidentally come through N.O once when i'm searching for some new music and decided i love their style and decided to dig more about them. I gave all of their songs a try (it was early 2015) and i just love everything and decided to become an army. It took me exactly 7 months to find out that they were actually active on twitter during that time so i decided to make myself a twitter account. Also, they are not that active on social media nowadays so i believe social media is not the main factor. It's more like their music is the one that makes all army around the world to gather on social media. Not the other way around. Not to mention that they had no chance back then. They keep being cut off from broadcasting, and the only way they can communicate with fans was through social media.
Yeah, it's the songs that got me. I only signed up for weverse to be able to write to them in the military 😅
Me too,only found them by accident ❤these people try to give them now a open platform, look how hard they had to work to be fully recognized in their country, what a shame and above all they generate trillions into their country,tourism put their country on the map,and how do their country said thank-you, send them to army so the world should stop making a fuzz,but they wrong,they will come back stronger than ever,because their fan based called army will see to that,they are world wide recognized, bang pd may have found them but they work hard through everything to be who they are today,im praying 🙏 🤲 for them❤❤
Samee I became an army when I hear their song dope through my middle schools talent show XD
Daily Practice was for 15-17 hours of their whole life as BTS! They deserve everything! I love their songs and lyrics besides dancing! Their personalities, Love BTS forever.
BTS Wold Domination 💜
BTS Paved The Way 👑
Amazing, so interesting! Greetings from Tricity in Poland 😘 BTS changed a lot of lives and we all know more about Korea! I am sociologist 40 years old and I love BTS
Bts is fantastic great the best kpop ever in history wit all there songs witch I love very much there my universe ❤🎉😊
Their popularity is due to the CONNECTION we felt towards their story, lyrics & bts, so, I think they said social media cos we came to know more bou them thru it, like Behind the scene, america hustle life, run bts, many came to research more & grow more interest in bts cos We see their love, talent & low results..
There are many things wrong with their info
7:18 yep they didnt created the choreo it is Keone Madrid.
What are others?
Please shed lights
Yup. I don’t even know where to start...
@@hilgaclaraas please

I first was aware of BTS when the dud theur first tour with 1 Direction. I knew they would become big you saw it in their eyes!
Everyone is talking about heights but that's actually Bang PD's goal of making his BTS known all over the world. For BTS, it's not just one member wanting to be the best he can be and be more. All 7 members share that passion to be well known worldwide, so they have to try as hard as they can and polish every move in every routine. When they practice just as hard, they did it as if it's end of the world. So much that fog covers the entire mirror and they were still not done. They didn't slack off nor give a sloppy performance when it's just practice. They're totally serious with it as a team. When it's time to perform, it goes to show that they put out more than 100% than they gave off during practices. Plus add Bang PD's faith and commitment with them, BTS has become unreachable now. They're legends of the current era. MJ paved the way for pop artists first. But sad to say that during his time, hardly an Asian pop artist makes it to the U.S Billboard. But then years later, BTS made it. They did it and paved way for more Asian artists to come. KPop is now well known worldwide because of them. BTS are the pioneers of making KPop well known worldwide and social media played as one of the significant factors of that success. But to say social media? Alone? I completely disagree to this, because while social media was chosen by Bang PD-nim to market his band, what he actually never realized was that while doing so, many Worldwide Armies have already passed on the discovery to others through just their music, others hearing them for the first time on the radio, others seeing them for the first time on TV (not just korean stations but also Billboard Awards, Grammys, GMA, James Corden, etc.) Others in youtube, twitter, or just coming across Google/Yahoo news. Newspapers, magazines. Others even just through word of mouth and the news passed on to other groups of people. It just came together. So it's best to say that apart from social media, there are avenues that made BTS known and it's thanks to the people, internet, radio, and television. 😎
Idol has South African beat👏💜
I'm South African ARMY,,, BTS please come to South Africa we are waiting for you😭💜
Pleaseee, ARMYs became ARMYs because of BTS' sincerity. No matter how good you are with SNS, if you aren't sincere, people aren't gonna idolize you like that. You may fake at first, but you can't keep an act for a very long time. People aren't stupid. Plus, it's all those K Media's fault why BTS didn't achieve the level of popularity they so deserve those times. No, BTS was not a flop, they didn't just suddenly blew up. They were legendary from the beginning and it was only a matter of time for the world to see that.

@@topchoice7482 wdym ?
Exactly
These idiots have no idea
All other Big Three sht groups used social media
I only hope that Koreans will know how big BTS's impact on the global market because of BTSxARMY hard work. Although at the beginning of their career, many underestimated them and struggled against prejudice and media play in korea. At least, at this point, korean citizens can appreciate BTS more. Cause it is enough from haters to always underestimate all of BTS's achievements, but please not citizens of BTS's home country too doing like that to BTS. BTS's member are all from Korean, not even from Seoul. You don't have to love BTS, but please respect and appreciate their work and achievements. Borahaee💜
I'm thinking of that where were all those praises for BTS songs such as DOPE, I NEED YOU, back then, they are the same songs nothing has changed. Back then even if BTS had the best songs, no one admitted that, just because they were from a small company, they cut their performances, they made them go through a tough time, they accused them with hundred things, they didn't want them in the TV shows, but now everything has changed. Everyone is trying so hard to invite them to their shows, but it's not that easy, KARMA IS AN ARMY.
That time when they left the hamburgers on Jungkook's hands I can't forget that moment, everyone treated BTS so bad, without thinking that they are humans too. And now they're saying they are proud of them, no need sweetie thanks.
BTS paved the way, they introduced Kpop to the world, but no one admits that, if I didn't meet BTS I wouldn't have known that kpop is existing.
Everyone is saying that they aren't a kpop group, just because they made a full English song, but after the grammy nominations, they switched so fast, now they are saying that this is a win for kpop, no bi**h this is a win for BTS and ARMY only....
Everyone treated them so bad, but now they are afraid to say a single word about BTS because of ARMY, everyone is saying sorry ARMY we didn't wanted to say that, we're gonna protect our boys with all the cost.
NEVER FORGET THIS "They were only seven, but they aren't anymore" they have million people who will stay by their side till the eternity. As they said "WE ARE BULLETPROOF"....
Spring day .. is back to top 50 today in melon...😘😘
BTS!!!!!!!👍😊💜👍😊💜
RM, Jhope, Suga...all genius in making music..with their big boss Bang Pd..the big revelation here is how Bang Pd made a marketing strategy that BTS paved the way to the top..Bang is a great boss here..through a give and take process and freedom of choice..their relationship has no barriers as boss and employee..so awesome..
DNA was my first song to watch and i loved it and i was like do this guys exist in 2017
It is very true that BANG PD is a Genius.
Superb choreographer, the Staff have worked hard. However, the fact of having selected precisely these 7 wonderful young people, facilitated and provided the necessary synergy for all the success that BTS is reaping. These 7 young people are great too and they planted passion, talent, willingness, sincerity towards their fans, ARMYS, in each project.
God arranged that all the pieces form the wonderful magic that is BTS.
This is not because of sns this is because of music ❤️
Bang si hyuk used youtube to connect with fans because TV networks prefer the big3 artists..now u can all stay salivate about BTS.
After reading a lot of comments, I have to say one thing - why people feel attacked when they say BTS has reached international audiences with social media? I mean, it's not wrong. Do people forget that RUclips is also a type of social media, not only instagram or twitter? They are not saying BTS songs aren't good, they are saying people from other countries heard about BTS through social media, it could be by solely watching their mv, It doens't need to mean that they watched the personal content or run episodes prior to their music!!!! I am an international army that only got to know BTS through youtube. I watched a few mv's and from that I wanted to know who they were, and then I just fell in love with their personalities and their message.
Till BTS, i haven't seen personal and backstage content from other groups, i'm talking about 2010-2012, and the vlogging wasn't a thing back then... my opinion is that the message that BTS deliver, makes the difference, they are speaking about their struggles, about being accepted as how u are ( which most of us have this issue, me included), having love problems... and can't recall other groups singing about this.
But it doesn't seem like music video is the social media they are talking about. Every other groups and singers have their own music video too but we don't see anyone being close to be as big as them. Other idols and singers are on social media too,, but they don't come as succesful as them. So the only answer left is they are genuine to their passion for music which lead us to understand about their endearing personality. It's not a "Thanks to social media" thing.
If it's about social media then everyone would have atleast 1M pre-order when they do a comeback or release new content.
All other groups used social media too
They attented at all famous korean variety shows and plus You tube too,
They were more famous in asia,
Why didn't those shit lipsync groups like bigbang exo world wide famous???
It is about music, BTS produced wrotten own music !! That is why
All other 400 kpop groups used social media
But only BTS communicated with their fsns
@@btspavedthewaythefact157, that's it: communication!!!! And how do they do that??? Through social media.... bangtan bombs in RUclips, their fancafe, v-live, twitter, weverse, instagram. Other groups may do that today but I've never heard of another group having so much content like they do a few years ago.
I have been army since last few years now but I still hasn't discovered the exact reason why they are so successful. Is it because of their hardwork, talent, passion to prove themselves, sincerity, far-sighted thinking, luck, staff, trainers, teamwork or connection their with Armys?
Maybe there isn't a single factor, it's the combination of many things, we can't trace their success and give credit to only "SNS". It might be one of the factor but definitely not the only one. 💜💜💜
Because of ARMY's all over the world so BTS was very successful and love them so much and at the age of 50, am so so proud am BTS ARMY and support them all the way.. Love from Philippines 🇵🇭
Bravo 👏 Mr. Bang PD! 😊👍
For the reaction videos to 쩔어, the editors ignored all the male reactors?? There are so many BTS reactors who are male! Obviously this video would be different if created by someone without preconceived ideas. I don't mean offense.
They had to approach SNS because of your own broadcasting stations. Anyway, thanks for the video.
You uploaded this in 2020 and you still think bts only well-known because social media is so funny. Look at how many kpop groups made twitter account after bts won top social award back in 2017. Have they achieved the same thing because of the social media? Ofc no 🤷🏻♀️
Like seriously I didn't even have twitter to know about them . I installed twitter later after becoming army just to follow them.
Also they don't even have insta account of their own unlike other artists
This is so stupid to say that they are famous bcoz of social media when they only put their updates only on twitter and that to in a single account 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ 💜💜
@@jkbunnysmilekilledme7 true. i think bts and their company used the platforms available to them in a very smart way to reach out to fans and to people. besides, they produce quality content that pulled more people to become fans of bts. to add to that, bts members don't hesitate to show who they truly are , they are very genuine, not to mention talented, professional, very skilled and dedicated in their craft, and just very good human beings. all these things made me a fan of bts (i never liked and listened to kpop before, but bts made it different for me).
@@jkbunnysmilekilledme7 Lol me. I never used twitter before. I dw the bird apps just cuz that's the only apps dat they used. I know them cuz of their music tho. So, thus utube consider as social media then?
@@Mai-nz5gj seriously then like this itunes and Spotify should also be considered as social media.....
@@jkbunnysmilekilledme7 Periodt
it's absurd to say it was mainly thru sns bc BTS made it to the bb charts early on in 2014 or 15 which was lucks play basically (obvi the album that topped at no. 5 was amazing but it was rare for a 1 year old kpop bg to enter the BB chart) and by 2015-16 before wings era they were well known in SK and eventually, internationally after their wings tour which further contributed to their presence at the AMAs and BBMAs in 2017
in conclusion it's all bc of BHs promotion and BH BTS and ARMYs hard work
When the MC said "even if the product is good, if the channel is wrong, it will never get known" this is how I feel about TheRose (the band if you don't know them check it out please😉)
Yaaaaa, totally agreed..all of their (The Rose🌹) songsss are boppp tho(✿ ♡‿♡)
Yes! The Rose is really good! I heard them on a BTS reaction video and really liked them. I hope more people try to listen.
There are lots of misleading information in this video. Thank you.
Omg I knew there was a reason I was particularly drawn to Idol 🇿🇦 🇰🇷
Thank you for sharing news about BTS , I-army need it so much 😍😍

Visionaries that somehow got together to create what BTS is now. And then they attract a fandom that somehow takes what good they send out and magnify it around the world. As Pinoys are fond of saying, ‘Sana all!’ What a world it would be.💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 💜for Bang PD
Oh come on..BTS has made this far is because of their efforts and passion for music not because of social media(social media is just their stepping stone).There's a lot of artist out there who uses social media but not big as BTS.
Somehow there are misleading statements from these hosts but all in all its a good content for BTS.
The women with ARMY bomb trying to sing along is like all the international ARMYs out there😂😎💜
She is korean , and couldn't sing one line
So fake
As for me they they became famous cause of their songs & talents. I love the melody & the lyrics of their songs. They are not just a kpop idol.They are all talented artist.
Okay thanks for the info but I'm really done listening to everyone saying BTS reached global success duw to their use of social media. Tell me ARMY who here stanned BTS because of TWITTER? As for me. I always knew of them. An army introduced me to them. I saw their music video. Got drawn into it because it was unlike anything ive seen. It was like Art. When visuals and music and meaning came together. It is only after that I got curious and got into everything else.
Let's give BTS the credit they deserve. It isn't just ARMY interactions that makes us love them. They are very talented. It is a cherry on top that they choose to be sincere and communicate freely with us.
Like seriously I didn't even have twitter to know about them . I installed twitter later after becoming army just to follow them.
Also they don't even have insta account of their own unlike other artists
This is so stupid to say that they are famous bcoz of social media when they only put their updates only on twitter and that to in a single account 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️💜💜
Nah like wtf I dont even use sns. I saw their yt recommendation of On and that made me stan then
@@jkbunnysmilekilledme7 yes I also don't have twitter. I did not get recommendations also. There music is very different from my taste. Someone introduced me to their music. I feel like social media has helped in awareness ABOUT BTS and to know how popular they are more than getting new fans.
@@ashashashi1 exactly!! It's like other artists using social media and being famous is their hardwork and BTS using twitter and being famous is coz of society media.🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
@@jkbunnysmilekilledme7 yeah. Sometimes I feel really bad when people have a preconceived idea about bts and army. I was one of them but frankly it made me think of how shitty i was as a person because I had no idea what I was judging without even seeing anything. So when I actually listened to them I felt like I need to be a better human being. Truly. There are many things that helped making our bond with band stronger and it is NOT just social media.
Bts best no1 vmin miss you 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
The funniest fact about this is how koreans in general used to look down on them, even made fun of me for buying their album back in the day, and now everyone is such a big fan. I can't help but just watch and laugh :)
True 😂😂😂😂😂
BTS Wold Domination 💜
*They're keeping their spit at the apex of the mountain by constantly releasing new songs*
Excuse Me!! did a BTS anti wrote this?? LOL BTS literally dropped 1 album in 2019 and took 11 months to drop 7 yet no one could even get close to their numbers
please tell me a summary about this video. I stopped at 03:55 its too painful to watch
That pink guy talks like as if BTS is a products...
Yes he is really proud!🤣
Pink guy 😂😂😂
LMFAO most ppl talk like that abt idols in korea it sucks
'The pink guy' LMAO😂😂
lmao at this point i think only armys should be speaking ab what bts went thru bc a lot of them rlly don't know
ikr non-fans are always misleading and have this wrong conception of why bts have such a huge fandom.
The thing is that many also can't accept the fact that BTS aren't just famous because of SNS, visuals or whatever but because of their (MESSAGES IN THEIR) MUSIC, TALENT, HARD WORK, their PERSONALITIES etc.
In addition to that, even if media knew of BTS' hardships and struggles they face(d) (K- and western) media wouldn't admit that they were the reason for most of the problems like for example hate since day minus one and until now they are still treated unfairly. BTS outsold and outcharted others and still aren't nominated in the categories they should have been nominated in not to mention that they would actually have the potential to win those awards. So, Award shows etc are basically ignoring them until Armys get loud and fight back with FACTS and EVIDENCE.
So, I totally agree that people should hire Armys to give correct input. (But as I pointed out it seems like they DON'T WANT to provide correct and complete* information about BTS' journey because media would get exposed)
*of course they can't include every single detail but you know what I mean
same :/
i really wish tae say "stop talking. dead skin cells are coming out of your mouth" right to their faces. belittling their music into social media feels so wrong.
Of course they resorted to putting out content on social media bc broadcasting stations wouldn't take them in 😒
BTS used Social Media effectively to show the world how great their music was. Their music is good because they had hitman bang and Pdogg. Just like how JYP has JYP, YG has YG and SM has Lee Soo Man as star producers. Bang Si Hyuk was also a star producer he knew what he was doing.
+K-DOC , may I correct that RM is also one of the Writers of BTS song DOPE , thank you .
Im also wonder they forget about rm.
Exactly , it was not Bang PD, he is producer, not song writer of BTS songs
I hope broadcasts media took male fans reaction too in this video because there's also a lot of them loving bts music, not just female fans .. army are diverse fandom among age, race, nationally, gender , careers .. I hope media take note this info ☺ it's a bit missing if we left out male fans in this bts fandom..
This will sound weird but;
Thank you Korean ,Media for your shortsightedness and selfishness.Through it you made Bang PD Share thing amazing talented super yet humble humans with us.Your denied them home coverage which made them opt for social media which is world wide.This led to the birth of a widewide funbase which truly loves this young men and fiercly them like a mother does her young ones.I am proud to be one of them.
Now Dynamite also changed his life.

Mistranslation or misinformation ? They don't create most of choreo, the fire one for example is from Keone Madrid
I'm an army and love BTS, please spread right info
Supposed to be they should be proud of their success because they are Korean kpop group / BTS but the Media in Korea is trying hard to destroy them,Thank God the Armys around the World is Protecting our Boys, 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Forever BTS Army
0:45 im sorry i laughed at the girl (｡ŏ_ŏ)
we og glad met bts bts boys way earlier than fan right now(they totally started everything from bottom)they working hard on it to be this level right now
One of the hosts mentioning that social media was one of the factors that made Bangtan famous is true. That is a fact and they didn't imply it was the main factor but as ONE of the factors. However, I find it very misleading that as if they are implying that Bang PD-nim planned this even way before, that using social media was something planned. In reality, they never explicitly planned it. As some of the comments here said, Bighit was a small company at that time with limited power to be able to promote their group on broadcasting stations. As a course of action, they filmed behind the scenes clips of their daily lives through Bangtan bombs uploaded on their youtube channel. Take note that during this time, not a lot of idol groups have free and accessible behind the scenes contents. They were just provided the freedom to show their self, as also shown with the members having a Twitter account.
IW'LL GO FOR IT LIKE POP NOT JUST KPOP.💜
The songs they showed in the video rm wrote them all
LEGEND
People trying to discredit BTS success by mentioning social media and their face is so annoying. Every kpop idol has access to social media they were not debuted on stone age and also most of their members are very handsome. BTS becomes successful because of there pure hard work and there heavenly personality. I am not saying others wouldn't worked hard. It is just BTS is special and they are sincere.
@kdoc RM is also part as writers of their song DOPE I noticed he is not on the list thank you ,hope you can correct it .
The fact that on 2014, just a year after debut Bts had their red bullet concert AROUND THE WORLD. And how they got to have a massive concert for Hyyh pt.2 cause of fans' demand worldwide doesnt sound like they've become a hit after DNA bru. And it definitely isnt because Bang pd aimed for the global market as well. You should get your facts right. Even 1 year old armys know that.
#BTS👍👏😊
BTS hermosos Army
💜
Its not SNS honey, every idols using SNS tho. Its all about their music and lyric. Thats why we can connect through theri music. Their not just sing a love song like others.
BTs💜💜💜
i see some armys disagree to the fact that bts success is partly because of social media, ngl that is true. they showed their personality trough social media which is why many armys felt the sense of close, friendliness with them+ their songs that are extemely meaningful. so yes social media did play a quite good part for our boys, due to the fact that other companies where blocking/hack them to not being broadcast in SK
It may be a part.But it has never been the main reason. We can admit the power of social media.BUT only bts use social media?And ALL idols who use succeed like them? I mean they could put it in a better way.The way they say is weird. There are many other important reasons behind bts's success they can point out other than sns.
@@epiphanyp4388 yes ur totally right. i was talking mostly of the comments that i read, but what u said is totally right, bts did not only succeed with sns as we all armys know, but yeah sns helped as well.
I agree.. But, I think the reason why they've said that sns plays a big part is because of the beginning of career of bts(they kust have consider it crucial), as you've said they couldn't broadcast in sk, so the way for fans to reach them out better is only through sns, and other platforms, that made it possible for them to communicate. It would have been better if the person(in the vid) elaborate the sns part. Since, bts music is sooo good, and their performance is amazing, and so their personality..
@@StarLight-lo3mr The reason I'm mad is not bc I'm denying social media's power .but bc the way they mention it.There are many idols using different platforms to promote,Sns,media,yt,variety shows,companys and sometimes even seniors.But when these folks say about these idols,they never mention these platforms as the main reason of their success. They do only with bts.And they do it every single time. That's what make me mad.
but it was not solely the part that led to their success and that is how it is coming across here
I'm a little confused cos this man seemed to be answering for/as Bang PD, but it's all good :) also, seems like Bang made most of the really good title tracks wow what a guy.... add to him a group of genius producers including RM Suga and J-Hope... no wonder it's a winning formula.
BTS love u
I came to know about sns bcoz of bts😑
Then hw did social media make them famous?
I like Bts there dance is beautiful I saw the food it looks good
I enjoy what Bts tennis everything they do together is inspired and amazing
They are Family’s To each other that what they are
Kroine people respect honor them I will support there community and people over there
Jesus Christ almighty lord god blessed kroon people
Amen❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Sincerely your prayer warrior Christ sister fan Judy
RM SUGA JHOPE ARE THE BEST COMPOSERS I KNOW!!!
Only BTS had Internet connection to reach out to their fans n made it big...rest of the groups didn’t have that access 😂
😂🤣😅
Umm Hobi and Jimin were already very good dancers before joining bts...
They didn't gain fans from using sns, they're using sns because of their fans!
BTS have not become popular through Sns. They have created a place in their fan's heart throgh their simplicity and good hearts.
