Hello everyone! Just wanted to let you know that my next BTS reaction will hopefully be up on the weekend. Sorry it's taking me so long to post again but I had exams at uni and classes are now starting again for me. But I'll do my best to keep up. Thank you for all the love!
I enjoyed your reaction and thoughts on the MV! If you wanted to dive more into the symbolism and inspiration behind the song and video, I've always thought this explanation video was very good: ruclips.net/video/5tlgAUE6yjg/видео.html
@@Dodger-un4hm thank you so much! I'll probably wait a bit for the explanation video because most people here told me it's best to leave it for further down the road. But I'll write it down on my list. Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for reacting to BTS! I’m excited for you to get to know more of their music and personalities! BTS have so many genre and you can’t really define them into one! This song is about youth losing their innocence and fall into temptation! It is based on the book “Demian”by Hermann Hesse
You are actually one of very few people who actually decoded symbolism in bst somewhat accurately in first try. A lot of BTS songs have deep meaning, symbolism and references. You should continue reacting to bts. This was a great reaction. Keep going!
@@lisontherecord I really enjoyed your reaction and like many here was impressed by your interest and skill in looking more deeply into the themes of this video. I really like watching an explanation video for many of BTS’s songs to expand my enjoyment of their works but with this one I would suggest leaving the one by xCeleste until later as it includes explanations of other videos as well, which are part of the BTS Universe.
@@lisontherecord there is another one which covers many of the interesting points, but the xCeleste one is more complicated. (xCeleste has many interesting videos some of which include getting to know BTS and ARMY)
So no one has mentioned this, but this video, and the album Wings have direct references from the book Demian by Herman Hesse, which was further inspired by Nietzsche's work (Hence the German quote). The kiss scene and the wings cut off, the organ player etc were all from the book. Other symbols were the painting 'Fall of the rebel angels', 'Fall of Icurus' and did you notice the recurring apple? (Represents knowledge). The Theme is kinda about letting go of innocence in the pursuit of knowledge and stepping into the world. Also your intermissions were everything! Bravo!! 😊
Ohhhhhhhhhh this explains so much now. That's quite an interesting work to draw inspiration from. Thanks so much for this comment!! Also thank you for the compliment!
@@shivangiagrawal2665 I can imagine. I'm mixed (half Argentine and half Swiss) but people never expect me to speak or read German, it can be quite funny actually 😂😂
some corrections: the apple there represents temptation, not knowledge. And according to big hit themselves the theme is the struggles of growing up and having to deal with conflicts and temptations.
@@priiifrg oh okay. 😊 But didn't Eve bite into the apple in temptation of knowledge and stuff? And the boys too decided to give into the temptation in order to get knowledge, and to have chaos to achieve growth.
This was a pretty hardcore first dive into BTS but I’m impressed by your open mind and attention to detail - great reaction!! I got into them early 2020 and have not left the rabbit hole since. I still don’t like kpop tbh. Tried to get into other groups but no one really compares to BTS. I am a 39 yr old mom who used to only listen to rock music. BTS opened my eyes and turned my life upside down (in a good way!). I love each one of them so much. They are this big for a reason.
I totally understand the feeling. I looooove ock and metal. Rock is still my go to and my first love. I only started listening to more pop music (and doing it with an open mind) in the last like 5 years. I'm almost 29 now, and spent all my teens and early 20s being "too cool" for pop. I'm so happy you found something that helped you broaden your musical horizon as well. Also thanks for the nice comment!
i've been an army for 4 years now and i still don't know the meaning behind bs&t mv. all i know is that it's about temptation, chaos, and (i think?) about that one hermann hesse story demian. i'm more interested in the meaning of ddaeng and baepsae than i am the literal godsend that is blood sweat & tears... on another note, you should watch 'a guide to bts (2021 edition)' by jiminluvr (contains song/live performance spoilers), or, if you're not the type of person who likes introductory videos, the bts room live and/or tiny desk concert. the former is a medley of their b-sides from 2c4s in 2013 to be in 2020. the latter is a performance of the 3 songs: dynamite, save me, and spring day (the queen or, as yoongi says, undying zombie of bts songs). a guide to bts (2021 edition): ruclips.net/video/s8W-N3bcJdg/видео.html [2021 festa] bts room live: ruclips.net/video/RRhjdYsNwAk/видео.html bts: tiny desk (home) concert: ruclips.net/video/gFYAXsa7pe8/видео.html if you watch the last two then please put on the closed captions (english subtitles). 💜 please and thank you.
Hi there! Thank you SO SO SO MUCH for putting in the effort to write such a thoughtful message and wanting to help me out. Love this and will definitely write these down on my "to react" list (I know it sounds cringe but I need to keep it organised or else I'll forget everything lol). Thanks again! Sending you a big hug (or high five if you're not comfy with hugs)
Blood, Sweat and Tears is a full-on introduction to the incredible world that is BTS! Nearly everyone’s response on first watching the MV is a variation on ‘WTF’ followed by ‘I’m so confused’😂. You did amazingly well picking up on the themes. The fact that it’s made even more complicated because it combines imagery relating to the book ‘Demian’ but also to the BU really is mind-blowing. 18 months down the rabbit hole and I’m still not quite mentally ready to tackle the BU😵💫
I was a huuuge fan of one direction myself when I got into bts/kpop. I would consider myself more an army then a directioner but the memories I have with one direction are always gonna stay in my heart. I must say that I feel more home with bts tbh and with the fandom. It’s always so entertaining and I feel like with one direction I got a little bit bored? But one direction was my first ever boyband I liked so I’m never gonna forget them and I still like their music😋Bts means so much to me and I feel so appreciated by them😣😣 nice video btw
Hi there! I think it makes sense that you got a bit bored considering 1D hasn't put out content in half a decade. It's just a fact that BTS are active atm whilst 1D isn't so it really makes sense. I love that you found a fandom where you feel good and content. Also thank you so much for leaving such a nice comment. It felt cosy somehow. 😊 Hope you have a great day/night!
Omg thank you so much! 💜 I'll definitely check out Black Swan. That'll probably be the next BTS music video I react to. Hope you have a nice day/night!
Omg me too!! I was like, she is so so smart, because she was picking up on a lot of stuff, and when she busted out the German😱 She is too cool I am so impressed
Blood Sweat & Tears is basically a chapter in the BU/Bangtan Universe. This all started with I Need U MV back in 2015, and is still going on. It's a fictional storyline told very metaphorically in the MVs, books, short films, highlight reels, album notes, a webtoon, and a mobile game. Army has had to decipher it along the way. We used to have Theory Thursdays starting in 2015, where we all met up online and had discussions with people from all over the world. We researched all kinds of things... astronomy, astrology, the language of flowers, the meaning of colors, religions, psychology, Greek gods, artists, etc... WARNING: if you go down this road into the BU, you will never be able to escape. You will never be able to just watch an MV without asking "what does this mean?". Because most of the time, there is a hidden meaning and message.
This was such a lovely reaction, thank you! There are many ARMYs that went down the same pipeline from being a Directioner to ARMY, I'm one of them lol. BTS is soooo different from every other group, even in kpop, but that's why I think it's really cool to follow lots of different artists and listen to different genres of music. I think right now I am BTS ARMY before any other artist, but that's also mostly because there is tons of content that they release, basically daily. I love being in this super supportive, kind and friendly fandom the most compared to any other fandoms that I've been a part of. I hope you can experience that love and welcoming from us through these reactions! And just in case, if someone is ever mean to you in any way related BTS, they are not ARMY, we don't claim them 😀 Blood, Sweat and Tears is one of the most beautiful and artsy music videos and concept, something similar to this would probably be Black Swan (if you are interested in such deep stuff). Since I have not seen anyone mentioning this before, again, just a tip - best and most reliable translations are on doolset bangtan. And there are also always captions available on their official music videos. But only a few years ago they started doing English captions for behind the scenes videos, so I think BS&T might not have captions on the original channel and only fan translated and edited videos! I'm excited to see your journey with BTS next, if you are up to it! It's an amazing rabbit hole to get into.
Thank you so much for leaving such a thoughtful comment! I definitely understand what you mean with the fandom experience and also to expect some negative people. I've grown up in fandoms so I get that aspect of it. Also thanks for the recommendation! I'll be posting more BTS related content very soon. I'll also be reacting to the music videos straight from youtube from now on so I can turn on subtitles. Also completely agree with your point about listening to a wide variety of artists and genres. I would consider myself more on the alternative rock side of things but I listen to A LOT of different things and different artist. Hope you have a great day/night!
I’ve watched many reactions to this music video as it is my favorite of theirs, and what got me into them, and I can honestly say you are the first person I’ve ever seen who had paid so much attention to detail and I really appreciate your openness and commentary. So many people think it’s silly or weird or cringe (especially when Jin kisses the statue and taehyung smirks with the gouges on his back) but I think every aspect of this video is absolutely beautiful, and as a whole was way ahead of its time. I’m so happy you decided to give them a shot and document it (I wish I would have) and I hope you continue. I recommend watching more live performances and videos for their personalities, I know some other kind armys have left tons of recommendations for you so happy watching! 💜
Not gonna lie, ever since BTS started all these music videos that are from the books, I start reading those books just to understand the mv and the rest of their story as individuals. Like I’m not into reading books a lot but I did it anyways 🤣 it made a bit more sense to me
Hahahahahahha but I love that! I love when artists get their fans to read, even if it's indirectly, and get them interested in a variety of new things and broaden their horizon. This makes me have so much more respect for an artist.
i am a directioner myself and became ARMY too in 2018 its been awsome i love all of em so much their content is amazing look foward to them personaly like an introduction they are of the sweetest people outthere i got surprised at all the things u pointed out great great reaction
Thanks for the reaction... loved it. Also according to my knowledge, ARMYs love longer videos so Don't worry about the duration. And yeah we would love watch anything related to BTS with you (explanation videos and others)
Love your conclusion and theory, way better than mine the first time I watch that music video, I was so confused ^^ Welcome 🤗 I'm very excited to follow your BTS journey, enjoy every step. I recommend their songs 'Fake love', 'Black swan' and 'Spring day'.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment! Also thanks for the recommendations. I'm probably doing Black Swan next because it's the one that got recommended the most. Hope you have a wonderful day/night!
Great reaction! And fantastic job spotting the symbolism. You were spot on for the most part. This song is part of a storyline that runs through BTSs’ videos and this one I particular has an theme of Temptation that runs through it. The constant battle between light and dark, good and evil. Eventually they decide to give into temptation.
@@lisontherecord The fictional storyline referred to as Bangtan Universe (BU for short) includes Music Videos, short films, books, webtoon and a mobile game. To start off I’d recommend the music videos and short films. And there’s a summary video as well that references parts that happen in the books, WEBTOON and mobile game. It all starts with their music video for I Need You. Below is a link I’ve found with the videos in chronological order. Based on your amazing deduction skills in the BST MV I think you’ll be able to follow fairly easily if you decide to go down the rabbit hole. ruclips.net/p/PLbmcyGDcXHssa381XzjNqSXN4QXEBdC1T
hey i really loved your video!! really looking forward to your journey getting to know them, apart from them being extremely talented they have their comedian sides as well which your gonna love
Hi, I am a 7 years old BTS-ARMY, thank you so much for showing interest to BTS and their music. I hope you will be able to check out more! this is great, it is the best to document this whole journey because I wish I also document mine when I was getting into BTS Music and getting to know more of them, It was the best days of my life. and people always recommend BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS because of the aesthetic of the MUSIC VIDEO but the song is good and meaningful. Thank you very much!!! 💜💜💜
Thanks for reacting to BTS! I really appreaciate your reaction, you look into the details of the MV. It is based on the book Demian by Hermann Hesse. Yes you are correct with the balloon, releasing your innocence and facing the reality of the world. There are a lot of BTS videos that are deep and has a lot of meaning. I look forward for your next reactions to BTS!
I'm a directioner-army, I can't wait for u to dive deeper in BTS' other songs. I'm so impressed cuz you actually figured out some of the symbolisms in the mv and song that most people would just ignore. They have so much references to literature in their songs and MVs, this song and MV in particular have references to Demian, a book by Hernann Hesse. Some of their songs and MVs are interconnected and have an overlapping storyline which makes up the BU (Bangtan Universe), if they are marked with "BU content" then it is part of the storyline. (BU also includes short films, teasers, a webtoon, a mobile game, and album notes, which may be too much to dive into if you're new to BTS, so u should just focus on the songs and MVs first if it's too overwhelming)
Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment. I'm definitely gonna dive into the BU. I find it very intriguing. I've always liked when artists, writers, etc, create a shared universe where all their work takes place.
I really enjoyed your reaction ☺️ You really thought about what you watched and really wanted to understand everything. You did pretty well .. there are theories on what it all means but it’s enjoyable for us to know how different people interpret it. Hope you watch more BTS and enjoy your journey ☺️💜💜
you got the main meaning behind this mv and song. the loss of innocence. all that in your first time watching them when literally no one can do that even after being an army. really loved that
As a former directioner im so excited to see your journey into BTS! They really are amazing and the messages and lyrics they put into their music is just put together so well. Plus they’re just such kind and humble human beings that have brought so much light into my life! So can’t wait💜
This is SUCH a great video to start with!! You actually caught quite a bit of symbolism, I was very impressed. Especially in pointing out the statues in the background in that one scene! Very much enjoyed this, I hope you do more BTS videos!
You did really good for your first bts reaction! When you were talking about wanting to document your bts/Kpop journey bc you didn’t get to with one direction really made me want to make a reaction channel as well. I already know a lot of Kpop and mostly all bts songs and a lot of their content so I wasn’t sure if I should but I think I will. I was thinking about it for a while but you’ve convinced me lol. I hope you react to more bts, you’ll really love them!! Have a great day!💜
DO IT! GO FOR IT! Seriously, I highly recommend it. As I said, I regret not doing it with 1D, so I'm not making the same mistake again. And if you love music like I do then definitely make the channel (as long as you're comfortable with putting yourself out there on camera, don't feel pressured to do it if ou don't feel comfy). And please, if you make the channel, let me know so I can check out your content.
Loved your video!! 💜 Any video you watch of them will always have a theory behind it, really bts is a great universe of theories where you will see videos that connect as well as some song lyrics😍 I'm looking forward to your next reaction💜
That's so interesting to me. I've always loved the idea of artist creating their own universe where a their work takes place. I love that concept in books, films, music videos, etc. So this really intrigues me. Also thank you for the compliment! And I hope you like it here.
aahhhh i love how you really try to analyze everything that caught your eye in the music video !! it's one of the most enjoyable parts of watching bts' music videos in my opinion so it's always nice to see people who are new to bts be rlly interested in interpreting them :') also!! something u might find interesting too: the painting in the background of that member who jumped down the balcony is the Landscape with the Fall of Icarus painting !! every art piece seen in the video is deliberate and purposeful so knowing them definitely helps in interpreting the entire video. but anyways !! thank you for your enthusiastic reaction :))
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh that painting makes so much sense in the context of this music video. Thanks for that interesting trivia fact. Also thanks a lot for your nice comments about how I handled the reaction. Stuff like this really makes my day.
im sooo impressed with you figuring out the meaning behind the balloon scene, cuz that's literally what it means, letting go of innocence and going into adulthood.
Hi I’m coming from your introduction to bts. I really enjoyed it and now I’m here. I love the fact that you’re reading the lyrics which is always a must with BTS songs
Thank you so much! And I really care about lyrics so I always look them up. Gonna make sure to turn on subtitles for the next MV though, because a lot of people recommended doing that.
Oh my you are on point. BTS is a group that will makes us delve into their music because of the message, lyrics , sound,etc. They are an unusual group as they mostly write and compose their own music with topics depicting about youth, innocence, loving oneself, having dreams, etc. I hope you can get into the BTS rabbithole! They are great artists that inspires.
Thanks for your thoughtful comment! I can definitely see how talented they are. I also reacted to "an introduction to the 7 members of BTS" now and was blown away by how talented they are.
You're such a great reactor! BST is quite laden with symbolism, some that I have never even decoded all by myself. I love seeing what other new people would say about it. Also, you were really on point with your interpretation! I would love to see more reactions from you💜
I'm so glad I found your BTS reactions on your channel. I too am fairly new to them and after seeing your first reaction to blood sweat and tears I wanted to let you know that I'm going to join you in your journey. I've recently been exploring them in a hit and miss fashion, so I thought it would be interesting to follow your journey along with you and get to know them better along with you. I am attracted to your approach to this and your desire to look beyond the hype and be more pragmatic about your BTS journey.
Awwww this really warms my dark and cold little heart! All jokes aside, this really does make me smile. I'm happy to have you come along for my journey and us discovering stuff together. Also thank you for your compliments and very kind comment!
Pls watch the explanation videos of Bts songs like Ugh, idol, spine breaker, baepsae, blood sweat and tears, Daechwita, persona, shadow, etc Pls watch the videos from x Celeste channel.. This is bts introduction This is bts army BTS contribution to music BTS crash course 2020 Nobodies to legend 2019 And Pls watch The rise of bangtan docu-series chapter 1-21 as of now from TheRiseofBangtanOfficial channel
You are so good like what 😱 thank you for analyzing, great job! I read Demian, and it's complicated af. If you love analyzing you will definitely enjoy the Bangtan universe, which is their fictional storyline that encompasses music videos, books, webtoons, mobile games etc. Complicated shit for veteran fans. Dont be pressured though, enjoy the ride 😊💜
This is part of the BU (Bts Universe) wich is a series of videos, short films, notes, webtoon and a video game I'll write the order of the first 3 BU videos so u can watch them I need U On stage prologue Run Take in mind the lyrics don't necesarily relate to the BU still they are great The BU was the most intimidating thing for me about bts but once I started to dive into it, it became my favorite thing about them. I recommend you to watch everything without an explanation it's so fun to try to put all the hints together
Thank you so much for your help! I'm trying to organise all the recommendations I got to see what to do next so this really helps. Again, thanks a lot!
Great reaction! It's always nice when a reactor takes the time to try to understand what's happening. And don't worry.... if you don't completely grasp the meaning in a video/song, there are lots of army who are great at deep diving and will be happy to explain or recommend explanation videos. No worries about not knowing their names. If you get sucked down the rabbit hole, you will learn BTS' names in no time. They are all awesome individuals with soooo much talent. I'm going to recommend a wide variety of songs so you can get a sample of their versatility (some of them have videos, but not all): ON: Kinetic Manifesto Dope Black Swan Baepsae Daechwita (solo by Agust D.... Suga's solo name) Singularity (solo by V) Daydream (solo by J-Hope) Bicycle (solo by RM) Serendipity (solo by Jimin) Epiphany (solo by Jin) Euphoria (solo by Jungkook) If you really start getting into them, it's a good idea to watch some of the many introduction videos (you'll get tons of recommendations). The story of how they got to be where they are is really inspiring and they are some of the nicest celebrities you'll ever see. Welcome to BTS. I hope you enjoy getting to know them. 😊💜💜💜💜
Thank you so much for the compliment and for your very thoughtful comment! Also thanks for the recommendations. Yesterday I filmed a reaction to an introduction to the members. Still have to edit it but I'm really happy I watched that video. I feel like getting to know the members a bit more will enhance my viewing experience ot their music videos.
Really nice reaction! I am so surprised that you got that german quote and could actually understand it :D I hope you can react to more BTS ^^ Once you learnd the members names there is no going back haha💜
Thank you so much! Hehe I get that a lot about the German. I'm half Swiss, so German is one of my native languages. Also, more BTS is coming soon and I totally get what you mean with the names.
@@lisontherecord pls react to An introduction to 7 members of bangtan by Ida s This is bts introduction by x Celeste The most beautiful life goes on story of bts by Asian theory This is bts army by x Celeste Watch the explanation videos of Bts songs like baepsae, spine breaker, ddaeng, blood sweat and tears, Daechwita, Ugh, persona etc
I really love that you readd the lyrics to this song first before watching it. BTS are all about their lyricism and meaning in their lyrics and their performances. They are true musicians and performance artists with each member having their own unique talent to add to the group. LIS: "I'm so lost right now" ARMY: Just like all of us were lost when we first watched it. --'ARMY's reading the book 'Demian' by Hermann Hesse to understand the meaning'. I love that you got the reference of letting go of innocence. This song is all about the struggle with temptation. V (Kim Taehyung) is the one with blonde hair that covered Jin's eyes, and his wings were cut off. JIN is the one that stared at the paintig in the beginning and ends up kissing the winged statue (represents Abraxas) and his face cracked at the end. This is a part of the Bangtan Universe. I LOVE that you got the meaning of the video without having to watch an explanation. I would wait on that until you are ready for the BU. I'm looking forward to more reactions. Watch the behing the scenes, I will link it for you. BTS Blood, Sweat, and Tears Shooting Sketch - ruclips.net/video/z4keadU6Qyw/видео.html
OMG your comment is so sweet! Thank you si much! And I really like this type of MV where I have to sit and actually think about it. Also thanks for linking the behind the scenes of the MV!
Well well well we have an intellectual here…very good first reaction! Welcome to the wonderful world of BTS. Enjoy!…Black Swan will probably be next not as complex as Blood Sweat and Tears but awesome just the same.👏👏👏
this actually makes me wanna cry, I remember listening to this for the first time when I was so young, but in a dark place, I was so fascinated by the lyrics more than anything, I was so happy to find lyrics I can relate to, this Mv made me think for so long as well, and this video reminded me of that time, thank you so much.
You're welcome darling! 💜 And I can understand that completely. Music has touched me like that all my life. Especially in my darkest times, music was always something I could lean on. (Hope it's ok I called you darling, if it's not, let me know and I'll edit the comment to take it out.)
You know my position in BTS (can I say that? maybe, idk, you understand what I mean) but I have to say that this song and this MV is absolutely stunning so I totally understand your reaction to it! It was amazing!!
Hi I really enjoyed your reaction, you seem so curious and open, and your analysis was SO good for someone with no background to this, wow! Welcome to the family 💜 and to quote Jimin, "you nice, keep going" 😊
Thank youuuuu!! 💜 I was actually a bit hesitant to add that extra clip. I didn't know if people would appreciate it because usually in reactions people only include the moment of their reaction and a little wrap up afterwards. But I've found that I sometimes need to process what I've just watched and think it over before being able to express coherent thoughts about it.
Hello Lis On The Record. Thank you for your reaction. I also did the One Direction Rabbit Hole first. Last year I started watching them on RUclips and I really got into them for their music and their characters. Only a few weeks ago I discovered BTS. And I must say; this rabbit hole is even more interesting. I really like the talent the boys all have. And they got so many styles of music. They all can sing, dance and rap. And their music always has meaning. They bring positivity and understanding and I love that. Above all this they all stay very humble and kind people. Very impressive. Hope to see more reactions of BTS from You. Maybe try "On" or "Black swan"?
Hi there! Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I'm definitely doing more BTS videos, actually posted another one today, and I'm so thankful for the recommendations. A lot of people recommended Black Swan so I'll probably do that one next. Hope you have a great day/night!
I love your analysis. It was so good. Just to add, that this was done in 2016, where some of the guys were entering into adulthood. So the album and this song is a coming-of-age piece where there's going to be dark temptation from the outside world. It kinda hits at that theme that they were in a sheltered good place and have now been exposed to darker things.
I'm commenting early, but I also got into 1D after hearing the album FineLine, and now after hearing Butter im hooked on BTS also, they are amazing human's in so many ways!
Girl you are amasing - keep going on the BTS journey you are such a fresh new face on youtube and i adore your personality.. welcome to the world of BTS and their personal ARMY 💜
Are you sure this is your first time watching it? like wow girl you picked out so much people would have missed on a first reaction! Loved your reaction
Amé tu reacción y en especial, el que pensaras profundamente en los significados. Si bien es cierto que BTS tiene canciones más "livianas" por decirlo así, como Dynamite o Butter, una de sus mayores fortalezas es la profundidad de sus letras y sus fuentes de inspiración. No podría decirte por dónde comenzar, pero te recomiendo que eches una mirada a la discografía para elegir por dónde continuarás este camino, porque hay álbumes que están ordenados en series, como Love Yourself o Map of the soul, y realmente cuentan una historia en si mismos, por lo que se entienden mejor si los ves en orden.
I really appreciate your reaction, thank you for respecting and trying to understand their art, you are making differentiated content. Continue on this path. Sorry for my google translator english haha. Some recommendations: Fake Love, Black Swan.
Don't worry about your English, I understood you without problems. 😊 And thank you so much for your kind comment, I really appreciate it! Hope you have a wonderful day/night!
BTS is something super special. I hope to see even more Bts reactions. They have no shortage of amazing content in all forms. Music, music videos, live performances, dance practices, interviews, behind the scenes, making of films, documentaries, variety shows, travel shows... and more
FYI, Army will be more than happy to see you do follow up reactions to explanation videos on the BTS music videos, dance practices for those music videos, and more too. These guys have so much subtextual concepts and themes underlying the music that you can’t catch everything. It’s worth the time to really get to know the words and meanings of you can.
Considering this was not only your first time watching BS&T but your first BTS video? You did amazing picking up on the video. Very few notice the green, and you noticed it right from the start and about the youth/innocence. There are some good explanation videos, as you said that would be helpful. lol I went back and looked and I think I liked the one by "Dont Worry I'm not Afraid"... don't watch the one by xCeleste. Not because her stuff isn't great, but hers puts it in context of a whole suite of BTS videos and overarching story that may get spoiled. My guess is my comment is a bit late and unhelpful, but just wanted to post, and let you know I did really enjoy your reaction and understood your desire to want to document it in case you did end up liking it, since you didn't get to do that for 1D. I won't recommend any, since i'm guessing many others already did, lol, but look forward to seeing you again. :)
👍 I also recommend the "Don't Worry I'm Not Afraid" explanation video for Blood, Sweat and Tears. It's a great place to start for better understanding this video and its symbolism without diving into the BTS Universe storyline. 💜
Thank you so so so much for your very kind comment! Also thank you for your recommendation, because a lot of people told me about the xCeleste one but then other told me to not watch it for now. So it's nice to have an alternative. And don't worry, you're not late. I'm filming my next BTS reaction today so it arrived in time. Again, thanks a lot and hope you have a great day/night!
I know this might be a bit late, but this was so refreshing to watch, I don't know. Your thoughts were so great and insightful, I love it. Your editing is amazing and funny, it's not too much but makes me laugh. I really hope you keep with this journey, I want to see where this goes. Amazing! You nice, keep going! Also, wait you know german? Hallo!
The One Direction to BTS pipeline is very real. I got into BTS this year and I think I was so late into getting into them bc I still wasn’t over One Direction
RAPlNE Rm ( Main rapper) Suga ( lead rapper) Jhope ( lead rapper) * Jungkook ( Sub rapper) VOCAL LINE Jungkook ( Main Vocalist ) Jimin ( lead vocalist) Taehyung ( Vocalist) Jin ( Vocalist) DANCE LINE ( who takes part in Dance break) >Jhope ( Dance leader / Main Dancer) Hiphop style dancer >Jimin ( Main dancer) more contemporary style dancer >Jungkook ( Lead dancer) sharp powerful dancer. His style is between jhope and jk > Taehyung ( dancer) smooth dancer. But All 7 can dance
Wow You did rlly we’ll figuring out a lot of things! Most reactors don’t rlly get anything and are just confused the whole time which is normal so it’s very cool that you caught on to some stuff
Thank you! I feel like I abused my last pair of working brain cells on that video lol Again, thank you for your lovely comment. Hope you're having a wonderful day/night!
I'm maybe late and I don't know if you'll read this but this song is basically about coming out from innocence, that's why I think the balloons where there to represent youth and then breaking that innocence(yeah you where right to think this about it). Loved the reaction keep going and I hope to see you become an army in the future 😁
Hey there! Don't worry about being late, you're basically just like Gandalf and wizards never arrive too soon or too late, they arrive when they're meant to.... ok, maybe my geek is showing now with that LOTR reference 😅 What I mean to say si that regardless of when you arrive, I still appreciate it and even more the fact that you took time to leave a comment. Also glad to know I'm not the only one who interprets balloons that way. Also thanks for the compliment! I'm having such a great time with BTS that I think it's inevitable that I'll become an army in the future.
I'm so excited to go on this journey with you! I can't wait to see what you think of the rest. I won't even recommend songs. just explore! BTS finds you when you need it most, so enjoy the journey and I'll be here right with you! ❤
Pls watch the explanation videos of Bts songs blood sweat and tears, Daechwita, Ugh, idol, spine breaker, baepsae, persona,etc if you want to understand their songs
Okay so I LOVE you, but when you showed little Fiona with her wittle pink bow and her fluffy little face, I almost cried. Let me move in with you aw!! 🥺💜💜💜
RIGHT? I UNDERSTAND YOU 100%! She makes me cry all the time. She's so fluffy and really cuddly. She likes to cuddle up to you to sleep. My heart can't take it sometimes...
👍🏼👍🏼Thumbs up reaction! BTS has tons of content. They have their variety shows like Run BTS, In the Soop, and their documentary movie, Burn the Stage, (which when released broke One Direction’s movie record). BTS release music for Army for free on SoundCloud. They live stream with Army. They are constantly here for us. Go on the journey; it’ll change you.
You can react to BTS albums in order Like a whole journey. You will see the improvement and Change in music genre ands style. Each album is based on concept Like school trilogy Youth concept Love, destiny , tear Love yourself concept And many more
Bts is my personal favorite artist of all time, but there are sooooo many kpop groups that go under appreciated and I think she should expand after bts to not just bigger groups like black pink, but any kpop sound she would be interested in

Hello everyone! Just wanted to let you know that my next BTS reaction will hopefully be up on the weekend. Sorry it's taking me so long to post again but I had exams at uni and classes are now starting again for me. But I'll do my best to keep up. Thank you for all the love!
I enjoyed your reaction and thoughts on the MV! If you wanted to dive more into the symbolism and inspiration behind the song and video, I've always thought this explanation video was very good: ruclips.net/video/5tlgAUE6yjg/видео.html
@@Dodger-un4hm thank you so much! I'll probably wait a bit for the explanation video because most people here told me it's best to leave it for further down the road. But I'll write it down on my list. Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for reacting to BTS! I’m excited for you to get to know more of their music and personalities! BTS have so many genre and you can’t really define them into one! This song is about youth losing their innocence and fall into temptation! It is based on the book “Demian”by Hermann Hesse
watch Jimin - Filter.
@@cristinapoupinho4860 thank you so much!!
You are actually one of very few people who actually decoded symbolism in bst somewhat accurately in first try. A lot of BTS songs have deep meaning, symbolism and references. You should continue reacting to bts. This was a great reaction. Keep going!
Ishan, your comment made my day. I spent so many hours editing this video and overthinking it so it's nice to get a comment like yours. Thank you
@@lisontherecord I really enjoyed your reaction and like many here was impressed by your interest and skill in looking more deeply into the themes of this video. I really like watching an explanation video for many of BTS’s songs to expand my enjoyment of their works but with this one I would suggest leaving the one by xCeleste until later as it includes explanations of other videos as well, which are part of the BTS Universe.
@@gretchend6823 Thank you so much for the compliment!!
@@lisontherecord there is another one which covers many of the interesting points, but the xCeleste one is more complicated. (xCeleste has many interesting videos some of which include getting to know BTS and ARMY)
@@gretchend6823 I'll definitely be writing down that name to search it up later on then. I love those type of videos!
So no one has mentioned this, but this video, and the album Wings have direct references from the book Demian by Herman Hesse, which was further inspired by Nietzsche's work (Hence the German quote).
The kiss scene and the wings cut off, the organ player etc were all from the book.
Other symbols were the painting 'Fall of the rebel angels', 'Fall of Icurus' and did you notice the recurring apple? (Represents knowledge).
The Theme is kinda about letting go of innocence in the pursuit of knowledge and stepping into the world.
Also your intermissions were everything! Bravo!! 😊
Ohhhhhhhhhh this explains so much now. That's quite an interesting work to draw inspiration from. Thanks so much for this comment!! Also thank you for the compliment!
@@lisontherecord I was also impressed when you just read the quote in German... I did not see it coming 😅
@@shivangiagrawal2665 I can imagine. I'm mixed (half Argentine and half Swiss) but people never expect me to speak or read German, it can be quite funny actually 😂😂
some corrections: the apple there represents temptation, not knowledge. And according to big hit themselves the theme is the struggles of growing up and having to deal with conflicts and temptations.
@@priiifrg oh okay. 😊
But didn't Eve bite into the apple in temptation of knowledge and stuff? And the boys too decided to give into the temptation in order to get knowledge, and to have chaos to achieve growth.
This was a pretty hardcore first dive into BTS but I’m impressed by your open mind and attention to detail - great reaction!! I got into them early 2020 and have not left the rabbit hole since. I still don’t like kpop tbh. Tried to get into other groups but no one really compares to BTS. I am a 39 yr old mom who used to only listen to rock music. BTS opened my eyes and turned my life upside down (in a good way!). I love each one of them so much. They are this big for a reason.
I totally understand the feeling. I looooove ock and metal. Rock is still my go to and my first love. I only started listening to more pop music (and doing it with an open mind) in the last like 5 years. I'm almost 29 now, and spent all my teens and early 20s being "too cool" for pop. I'm so happy you found something that helped you broaden your musical horizon as well. Also thanks for the nice comment!
i've been an army for 4 years now and i still don't know the meaning behind bs&t mv. all i know is that it's about temptation, chaos, and (i think?) about that one hermann hesse story demian. i'm more interested in the meaning of ddaeng and baepsae than i am the literal godsend that is blood sweat & tears...
on another note, you should watch 'a guide to bts (2021 edition)' by jiminluvr (contains song/live performance spoilers), or, if you're not the type of person who likes introductory videos, the bts room live and/or tiny desk concert. the former is a medley of their b-sides from 2c4s in 2013 to be in 2020. the latter is a performance of the 3 songs: dynamite, save me, and spring day (the queen or, as yoongi says, undying zombie of bts songs).

Hi there! Thank you SO SO SO MUCH for putting in the effort to write such a thoughtful message and wanting to help me out. Love this and will definitely write these down on my "to react" list (I know it sounds cringe but I need to keep it organised or else I'll forget everything lol).
Thanks again! Sending you a big hug (or high five if you're not comfy with hugs)
@@lisontherecord you're so cute to be conscientious about hugs boundaries while during written conversation :)
@@sc33h3o3 I'd never want anyone to feel uncomfortable or unsafe with me. So I try to keep in mind that not everyone is as "touchy" as I am. 😅
Blood, Sweat and Tears is a full-on introduction to the incredible world that is BTS! Nearly everyone’s response on first watching the MV is a variation on ‘WTF’ followed by ‘I’m so confused’😂. You did amazingly well picking up on the themes. The fact that it’s made even more complicated because it combines imagery relating to the book ‘Demian’ but also to the BU really is mind-blowing. 18 months down the rabbit hole and I’m still not quite mentally ready to tackle the BU😵💫
I'm nearly three years an Army and i didn't startet the BU.
I was a huuuge fan of one direction myself when I got into bts/kpop. I would consider myself more an army then a directioner but the memories I have with one direction are always gonna stay in my heart. I must say that I feel more home with bts tbh and with the fandom. It’s always so entertaining and I feel like with one direction I got a little bit bored? But one direction was my first ever boyband I liked so I’m never gonna forget them and I still like their music😋Bts means so much to me and I feel so appreciated by them😣😣 nice video btw
Hi there! I think it makes sense that you got a bit bored considering 1D hasn't put out content in half a decade. It's just a fact that BTS are active atm whilst 1D isn't so it really makes sense. I love that you found a fandom where you feel good and content.
Also thank you so much for leaving such a nice comment. It felt cosy somehow. 😊
Hope you have a great day/night!
The reaction was lovely, also, you got a lot of the hints on the video, really nice. Hope you keep reacting to BTS ^^
Thank you! I'm planning on doing that 😊
Hope you have a great day/night!
You impress the hell out of me! I hope you do more BTS reactions, you'd probably enjoy Black Swan if you want to give that a shot 💜
Omg thank you so much! 💜 I'll definitely check out Black Swan. That'll probably be the next BTS music video I react to. Hope you have a nice day/night!
Omg me too!! I was like, she is so so smart, because she was picking up on a lot of stuff, and when she busted out the German😱 She is too cool I am so impressed
@@chivafiresman ajshsbzhxjakshzbHdhfjsjcndn THANK YOU!!!!!! 💜💜
@@chivafiresman also LOVE your name
@@lisontherecord thank you!!☺️☺️
Blood Sweat & Tears is basically a chapter in the BU/Bangtan Universe. This all started with I Need U MV back in 2015, and is still going on. It's a fictional storyline told very metaphorically in the MVs, books, short films, highlight reels, album notes, a webtoon, and a mobile game. Army has had to decipher it along the way. We used to have Theory Thursdays starting in 2015, where we all met up online and had discussions with people from all over the world. We researched all kinds of things... astronomy, astrology, the language of flowers, the meaning of colors, religions, psychology, Greek gods, artists, etc... WARNING: if you go down this road into the BU, you will never be able to escape. You will never be able to just watch an MV without asking "what does this mean?". Because most of the time, there is a hidden meaning and message.
This was such a lovely reaction, thank you! There are many ARMYs that went down the same pipeline from being a Directioner to ARMY, I'm one of them lol. BTS is soooo different from every other group, even in kpop, but that's why I think it's really cool to follow lots of different artists and listen to different genres of music. I think right now I am BTS ARMY before any other artist, but that's also mostly because there is tons of content that they release, basically daily. I love being in this super supportive, kind and friendly fandom the most compared to any other fandoms that I've been a part of. I hope you can experience that love and welcoming from us through these reactions! And just in case, if someone is ever mean to you in any way related BTS, they are not ARMY, we don't claim them 😀
Blood, Sweat and Tears is one of the most beautiful and artsy music videos and concept, something similar to this would probably be Black Swan (if you are interested in such deep stuff).
Since I have not seen anyone mentioning this before, again, just a tip - best and most reliable translations are on doolset bangtan. And there are also always captions available on their official music videos. But only a few years ago they started doing English captions for behind the scenes videos, so I think BS&T might not have captions on the original channel and only fan translated and edited videos!
I'm excited to see your journey with BTS next, if you are up to it! It's an amazing rabbit hole to get into.
Thank you so much for leaving such a thoughtful comment! I definitely understand what you mean with the fandom experience and also to expect some negative people. I've grown up in fandoms so I get that aspect of it.
Also thanks for the recommendation! I'll be posting more BTS related content very soon. I'll also be reacting to the music videos straight from youtube from now on so I can turn on subtitles.
Also completely agree with your point about listening to a wide variety of artists and genres. I would consider myself more on the alternative rock side of things but I listen to A LOT of different things and different artist.
Hope you have a great day/night!
I’ve watched many reactions to this music video as it is my favorite of theirs, and what got me into them, and I can honestly say you are the first person I’ve ever seen who had paid so much attention to detail and I really appreciate your openness and commentary.
So many people think it’s silly or weird or cringe (especially when Jin kisses the statue and taehyung smirks with the gouges on his back) but I think every aspect of this video is absolutely beautiful, and as a whole was way ahead of its time.
I’m so happy you decided to give them a shot and document it (I wish I would have) and I hope you continue. I recommend watching more live performances and videos for their personalities, I know some other kind armys have left tons of recommendations for you so happy watching! 💜
Not gonna lie, ever since BTS started all these music videos that are from the books, I start reading those books just to understand the mv and the rest of their story as individuals. Like I’m not into reading books a lot but I did it anyways 🤣 it made a bit more sense to me
Hahahahahahha but I love that! I love when artists get their fans to read, even if it's indirectly, and get them interested in a variety of new things and broaden their horizon. This makes me have so much more respect for an artist.
i am a directioner myself and became ARMY too in 2018
its been awsome i love all of em so much
their content is amazing look foward to them personaly like an introduction
they are of the sweetest people outthere
i got surprised at all the things u pointed out great great reaction
Thanks for the reaction... loved it.
Also according to my knowledge, ARMYs love longer videos so Don't worry about the duration. And yeah we would love watch anything related to BTS with you (explanation videos and others)
I'm so glad you liked it! Also thanks for reassuring me, I'm new to all this so I'm learning as I go. Thanks a lot!
Love your conclusion and theory, way better than mine the first time I watch that music video, I was so confused ^^
Welcome 🤗 I'm very excited to follow your BTS journey, enjoy every step.
I recommend their songs 'Fake love', 'Black swan' and 'Spring day'.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment! Also thanks for the recommendations. I'm probably doing Black Swan next because it's the one that got recommended the most.
Hope you have a wonderful day/night!
Great reaction! And fantastic job spotting the symbolism. You were spot on for the most part. This song is part of a storyline that runs through BTSs’ videos and this one I particular has an theme of Temptation that runs through it. The constant battle between light and dark, good and evil. Eventually they decide to give into temptation.
Thanks! Wait, so there are more videos for this storyline? What are they called? I'm definitely interested.
@@lisontherecord The fictional storyline referred to as Bangtan Universe (BU for short) includes Music Videos, short films, books, webtoon and a mobile game.
To start off I’d recommend the music videos and short films. And there’s a summary video as well that references parts that happen in the books, WEBTOON and mobile game.
It all starts with their music video for I Need You. Below is a link I’ve found with the videos in chronological order. Based on your amazing deduction skills in the BST MV I think you’ll be able to follow fairly easily if you decide to go down the rabbit hole.

WOW you're good! Can't wait for more BTS reactions from you!! x
Thank you!!!! And don't worry, more of them coming soon!
hey i really loved your video!! really looking forward to your journey getting to know them, apart from them being extremely talented they have their comedian sides as well which your gonna love
Ohhhhh I'll definitely love that! I like seeing the more human side of performers and "getting to know" them. And thanks for the love!
@@lisontherecord yes and that makes you love their music even more. I'll definitely recommend some on your next vid:)
Hi, I am a 7 years old BTS-ARMY, thank you so much for showing interest to BTS and their music. I hope you will be able to check out more! this is great, it is the best to document this whole journey because I wish I also document mine when I was getting into BTS Music and getting to know more of them, It was the best days of my life. and people always recommend BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS because of the aesthetic of the MUSIC VIDEO but the song is good and meaningful. Thank you very much!!! 💜💜💜
Ahhhh I love this!!! (and you of course) can't wait for more
Thank you so much Nat!!!
Thanks for reacting to BTS! I really appreaciate your reaction, you look into the details of the MV. It is based on the book Demian by Hermann Hesse. Yes you are correct with the balloon, releasing your innocence and facing the reality of the world. There are a lot of BTS videos that are deep and has a lot of meaning. I look forward for your next reactions to BTS!
This was the first bts music video I heard too, became a fan soon after❤️
Same is happening to me. I consider myself a fan already 😂
I'm a directioner-army, I can't wait for u to dive deeper in BTS' other songs. I'm so impressed cuz you actually figured out some of the symbolisms in the mv and song that most people would just ignore. They have so much references to literature in their songs and MVs, this song and MV in particular have references to Demian, a book by Hernann Hesse. Some of their songs and MVs are interconnected and have an overlapping storyline which makes up the BU (Bangtan Universe), if they are marked with "BU content" then it is part of the storyline. (BU also includes short films, teasers, a webtoon, a mobile game, and album notes, which may be too much to dive into if you're new to BTS, so u should just focus on the songs and MVs first if it's too overwhelming)
Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment. I'm definitely gonna dive into the BU. I find it very intriguing. I've always liked when artists, writers, etc, create a shared universe where all their work takes place.
omg i really loved this reaction! you analyse everything so well
I really enjoyed your reaction ☺️ You really thought about what you watched and really wanted to understand everything. You did pretty well .. there are theories on what it all means but it’s enjoyable for us to know how different people interpret it. Hope you watch more BTS and enjoy your journey ☺️💜💜
You're so sweet! Thank you for your compliments and for being so kind. I'll definitely be reacting to more BTS.
@@lisontherecord looking forward to experiencing the journey with you. 💜
you got the main meaning behind this mv and song. the loss of innocence. all that in your first time watching them when literally no one can do that even after being an army. really loved that
As a former directioner im so excited to see your journey into BTS! They really are amazing and the messages and lyrics they put into their music is just put together so well. Plus they’re just such kind and humble human beings that have brought so much light into my life! So can’t wait💜
This is SUCH a great video to start with!! You actually caught quite a bit of symbolism, I was very impressed. Especially in pointing out the statues in the background in that one scene! Very much enjoyed this, I hope you do more BTS videos!
Hi there! Thank you so much for the nice comment. I'll definitely be doing more BTS very soon. Hope you have a nice day/night!
I can't wait for you to get into their music video universe!! If you do, the Save Me webtoon is a must read!
Thanks for the love and the recommendations! Already wrote yours down.
You did really good for your first bts reaction! When you were talking about wanting to document your bts/Kpop journey bc you didn’t get to with one direction really made me want to make a reaction channel as well.
I already know a lot of Kpop and mostly all bts songs and a lot of their content so I wasn’t sure if I should but I think I will. I was thinking about it for a while but you’ve convinced me lol.
I hope you react to more bts, you’ll really love them!! Have a great day!💜
DO IT! GO FOR IT! Seriously, I highly recommend it. As I said, I regret not doing it with 1D, so I'm not making the same mistake again. And if you love music like I do then definitely make the channel (as long as you're comfortable with putting yourself out there on camera, don't feel pressured to do it if ou don't feel comfy). And please, if you make the channel, let me know so I can check out your content.
@@lisontherecord Ahh ok I will let you know when I do!!💜
Amazing deconstruction!! You did so well! I'm definitely subscribing now!
Thank you so much for your kind comment! Also thank you for subscribing. Hope you like it here!
Loved your video!! 💜
Any video you watch of them will always have a theory behind it, really bts is a great universe of theories where you will see videos that connect as well as some song lyrics😍
I'm looking forward to your next reaction💜
That's so interesting to me. I've always loved the idea of artist creating their own universe where a their work takes place. I love that concept in books, films, music videos, etc. So this really intrigues me. Also thank you for the compliment! And I hope you like it here.
Thank you so much for reacting to Bts, as an army its so much fun to see new people discovering them :)
Thank you for being so kind! All of you have been so warm and welcoming it's really lovely.
aahhhh i love how you really try to analyze everything that caught your eye in the music video !! it's one of the most enjoyable parts of watching bts' music videos in my opinion so it's always nice to see people who are new to bts be rlly interested in interpreting them :') also!! something u might find interesting too: the painting in the background of that member who jumped down the balcony is the Landscape with the Fall of Icarus painting !! every art piece seen in the video is deliberate and purposeful so knowing them definitely helps in interpreting the entire video. but anyways !! thank you for your enthusiastic reaction :))
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh that painting makes so much sense in the context of this music video. Thanks for that interesting trivia fact. Also thanks a lot for your nice comments about how I handled the reaction. Stuff like this really makes my day.
im sooo impressed with you figuring out the meaning behind the balloon scene, cuz that's literally what it means, letting go of innocence and going into adulthood.
I‘m already a huge huge huge huge fan of your reaction videos! Please keep doing them 😍
OMG THANK YOU EVE!!!
Hi I’m coming from your introduction to bts. I really enjoyed it and now I’m here. I love the fact that you’re reading the lyrics which is always a must with BTS songs
Thank you so much! And I really care about lyrics so I always look them up. Gonna make sure to turn on subtitles for the next MV though, because a lot of people recommended doing that.
Oh my you are on point. BTS is a group that will makes us delve into their music because of the message, lyrics , sound,etc. They are an unusual group as they mostly write and compose their own music with topics depicting about youth, innocence, loving oneself, having dreams, etc. I hope you can get into the BTS rabbithole! They are great artists that inspires.
Thanks for your thoughtful comment! I can definitely see how talented they are. I also reacted to "an introduction to the 7 members of BTS" now and was blown away by how talented they are.
Of topic you’re beautiful 😊💜(hope you continue with reacting i love to see your reaction)💜
Thank you!! And I'll definitely continue reacting to BTS. More of them coming soon. Hope you have a good day/night!
If you like Blood Sweat and Tears you will also like BTS "Black Swan". Please react to that.
Thank you for your recommendation! Will definitely react to that one!
You're such a great reactor! BST is quite laden with symbolism, some that I have never even decoded all by myself. I love seeing what other new people would say about it. Also, you were really on point with your interpretation! I would love to see more reactions from you💜
This is such a sweet comment. Thank you! And don't worry, I'm planning on reacting to a lot more of them.
I'm so glad I found your BTS reactions on your channel. I too am fairly new to them and after seeing your first reaction to blood sweat and tears I wanted to let you know that I'm going to join you in your journey. I've recently been exploring them in a hit and miss fashion, so I thought it would be interesting to follow your journey along with you and get to know them better along with you. I am attracted to your approach to this and your desire to look beyond the hype and be more pragmatic about your BTS journey.
Awwww this really warms my dark and cold little heart! All jokes aside, this really does make me smile. I'm happy to have you come along for my journey and us discovering stuff together. Also thank you for your compliments and very kind comment!

You are so good like what 😱 thank you for analyzing, great job! I read Demian, and it's complicated af. If you love analyzing you will definitely enjoy the Bangtan universe, which is their fictional storyline that encompasses music videos, books, webtoons, mobile games etc. Complicated shit for veteran fans. Dont be pressured though, enjoy the ride 😊💜
Thank you for your nice comment!!! I'm actually really interested in the BU, so I'll probably keep watching the content relating to that.
This is part of the BU (Bts Universe) wich is a series of videos, short films, notes, webtoon and a video game
I'll write the order of the first 3 BU videos so u can watch them
I need U
On stage prologue
Run
Take in mind the lyrics don't necesarily relate to the BU still they are great
The BU was the most intimidating thing for me about bts but once I started to dive into it, it became my favorite thing about them. I recommend you to watch everything without an explanation it's so fun to try to put all the hints together
Thank you so much for your help! I'm trying to organise all the recommendations I got to see what to do next so this really helps. Again, thanks a lot!
Great reaction! It's always nice when a reactor takes the time to try to understand what's happening. And don't worry.... if you don't completely grasp the meaning in a video/song, there are lots of army who are great at deep diving and will be happy to explain or recommend explanation videos. No worries about not knowing their names. If you get sucked down the rabbit hole, you will learn BTS' names in no time. They are all awesome individuals with soooo much talent. I'm going to recommend a wide variety of songs so you can get a sample of their versatility (some of them have videos, but not all):
ON: Kinetic Manifesto
Dope
Black Swan
Baepsae
Daechwita (solo by Agust D.... Suga's solo name)
Singularity (solo by V)
Daydream (solo by J-Hope)
Bicycle (solo by RM)
Serendipity (solo by Jimin)
Epiphany (solo by Jin)
Euphoria (solo by Jungkook)
If you really start getting into them, it's a good idea to watch some of the many introduction videos (you'll get tons of recommendations). The story of how they got to be where they are is really inspiring and they are some of the nicest celebrities you'll ever see. Welcome to BTS. I hope you enjoy getting to know them. 😊💜💜💜💜
Thank you so much for the compliment and for your very thoughtful comment! Also thanks for the recommendations. Yesterday I filmed a reaction to an introduction to the members. Still have to edit it but I'm really happy I watched that video. I feel like getting to know the members a bit more will enhance my viewing experience ot their music videos.
@@lisontherecord Definitely. They are just amazing people. It's not only their music that draws so many people to them. 😊

I really love that you readd the lyrics to this song first before watching it. BTS are all about their lyricism and meaning in their lyrics and their performances. They are true musicians and performance artists with each member having their own unique talent to add to the group.
LIS: "I'm so lost right now"
ARMY: Just like all of us were lost when we first watched it. --'ARMY's reading the book 'Demian' by Hermann Hesse to understand the meaning'.
I love that you got the reference of letting go of innocence. This song is all about the struggle with temptation. V (Kim Taehyung) is the one with blonde hair that covered Jin's eyes, and his wings were cut off. JIN is the one that stared at the paintig in the beginning and ends up kissing the winged statue (represents Abraxas) and his face cracked at the end. This is a part of the Bangtan Universe.
I LOVE that you got the meaning of the video without having to watch an explanation. I would wait on that until you are ready for the BU. I'm looking forward to more reactions. Watch the behing the scenes, I will link it for you.

OMG your comment is so sweet! Thank you si much! And I really like this type of MV where I have to sit and actually think about it. Also thanks for linking the behind the scenes of the MV!
@@lisontherecord 💜
Well well well we have an intellectual here…very good first reaction! Welcome to the wonderful world of BTS. Enjoy!…Black Swan will probably be next not as complex as Blood Sweat and Tears but awesome just the same.👏👏👏
If you do decide to go down the (best) rabbit hole, documenting is a great idea! BTS is the best group for that. Hope you have fun and good luck 😉💜
Thank you!! And yes, anything else of theirs that I watch I'll definitely document it
this actually makes me wanna cry, I remember listening to this for the first time when I was so young, but in a dark place, I was so fascinated by the lyrics more than anything, I was so happy to find lyrics I can relate to, this Mv made me think for so long as well, and this video reminded me of that time, thank you so much.
You're welcome darling! 💜 And I can understand that completely. Music has touched me like that all my life. Especially in my darkest times, music was always something I could lean on.
(Hope it's ok I called you darling, if it's not, let me know and I'll edit the comment to take it out.)
You know my position in BTS (can I say that? maybe, idk, you understand what I mean) but I have to say that this song and this MV is absolutely stunning so I totally understand your reaction to it! It was amazing!!
Yeah I get what you mean, don't worry. And yeah this mv was stunning and sooooo interesting.
Hi I really enjoyed your reaction, you seem so curious and open, and your analysis was SO good for someone with no background to this, wow! Welcome to the family 💜 and to quote Jimin, "you nice, keep going" 😊
Thank you so much! This really warms my heart. And that's such a sweet quote. Hope you're having a great day/night!
Loved the addition you made afterwards, it was really interesting! And like others said :really good analysis! Quoting Jimin :"YOU NICE, KEEP GOING “👍
Thank youuuuu!! 💜
I was actually a bit hesitant to add that extra clip. I didn't know if people would appreciate it because usually in reactions people only include the moment of their reaction and a little wrap up afterwards. But I've found that I sometimes need to process what I've just watched and think it over before being able to express coherent thoughts about it.
I really love watching your journey to BTS eventho its only been 2 videos so far lol.. cant wait for your next BTS video! 💜
LISSSSS okay the video is amazing I love love love your reactions and I'm still so in love with your accent!
AJSJSJNSFBBDVNDjchxhdhrbdbcbdjbnsfjdn SARA OMG ILY!!!!
What a freaking great reaction! You got a sub from me! I'm not hungry for more of your BTS journey
Hello Lis On The Record. Thank you for your reaction. I also did the One Direction Rabbit Hole first. Last year I started watching them on RUclips and I really got into them for their music and their characters. Only a few weeks ago I discovered BTS. And I must say; this rabbit hole is even more interesting. I really like the talent the boys all have. And they got so many styles of music. They all can sing, dance and rap. And their music always has meaning. They bring positivity and understanding and I love that. Above all this they all stay very humble and kind people. Very impressive. Hope to see more reactions of BTS from You. Maybe try "On" or "Black swan"?
Hi there! Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I'm definitely doing more BTS videos, actually posted another one today, and I'm so thankful for the recommendations. A lot of people recommended Black Swan so I'll probably do that one next. Hope you have a great day/night!
I love your analysis. It was so good. Just to add, that this was done in 2016, where some of the guys were entering into adulthood. So the album and this song is a coming-of-age piece where there's going to be dark temptation from the outside world. It kinda hits at that theme that they were in a sheltered good place and have now been exposed to darker things.
I absolutely loved your reaction, it was so genuine and you seemed so into it! Would love to see more Bts reactions…new subscriber here 💜
your reaction is beautiful 💜
Thank you!
I'm commenting early, but I also got into 1D after hearing the album FineLine, and now after hearing Butter im hooked on BTS also, they are amazing human's in so many ways!
Same. I too got into 1D thanks to Harry. So happy to hear I'm not the only one going through. What would you recommend I watch next from BTS?
@@lisontherecord There is so much music but Id say "Black Swan" :)
@@SuzyQRollin83 this seems to be a popular suggestion so I might do this one next. Thank you for answering!
Girl you are amasing - keep going on the BTS journey you are such a fresh new face on youtube and i adore your personality.. welcome to the world of BTS and their personal ARMY 💜
Thank you so so much for leaving such a sweet comment! I really appreciate it
Are you sure this is your first time watching it? like wow girl you picked out so much people would have missed on a first reaction! Loved your reaction
If you like theorizing and complex hidden meanings in songs, music videos and spanning albums, you've come to the right place/ band/ fandom.
Seems like I have. I'm having a blast here.
Loved your reaction! And yes I’m interested in watching more of you watching BTS. Please do a explained video ( there are many)
Thank you so much!
Amazing reaction ! Enjoy your fall down the BTS rabbit hole 😄🥰
Hahahahahah thanks, I can already see myself having an existential crisis over getting into yet another fandom.... 😅
Also thanks for the nice comment!
Amé tu reacción y en especial, el que pensaras profundamente en los significados. Si bien es cierto que BTS tiene canciones más "livianas" por decirlo así, como Dynamite o Butter, una de sus mayores fortalezas es la profundidad de sus letras y sus fuentes de inspiración. No podría decirte por dónde comenzar, pero te recomiendo que eches una mirada a la discografía para elegir por dónde continuarás este camino, porque hay álbumes que están ordenados en series, como Love Yourself o Map of the soul, y realmente cuentan una historia en si mismos, por lo que se entienden mejor si los ves en orden.
I really liked your reaction and I hope you will react to more !! You are genuine and invested and that's so precious !
Thank you so so much for your lovely comment! I'm so glad you liked it.
"La última cena" ¿Por qué me hizo tan feliz escucharte hablar en español? JDJDJDJ
Me alegra que estés aventurandote en este mundo que es BTS 💜
I really appreciate your reaction, thank you for respecting and trying to understand their art, you are making differentiated content. Continue on this path. Sorry for my google translator english haha. Some recommendations: Fake Love, Black Swan.
Don't worry about your English, I understood you without problems. 😊
And thank you so much for your kind comment, I really appreciate it! Hope you have a wonderful day/night!
BTS is something super special. I hope to see even more Bts reactions. They have no shortage of amazing content in all forms. Music, music videos, live performances, dance practices, interviews, behind the scenes, making of films, documentaries, variety shows, travel shows... and more
I'm really excited to dive into all this stuff. They're so talented it's a joy to watch them.
Thank you for reacting to BTS. Hoping for more BTS content. 💜
No problem. And thank you for being so kind. More of them coming soon!
FYI, Army will be more than happy to see you do follow up reactions to explanation videos on the BTS music videos, dance practices for those music videos, and more too. These guys have so much subtextual concepts and themes underlying the music that you can’t catch everything. It’s worth the time to really get to know the words and meanings of you can.
I can't wait for moooore videoooos!!!
THANK YOU SARA!!! More videos coming soon I hope.
Considering this was not only your first time watching BS&T but your first BTS video? You did amazing picking up on the video. Very few notice the green, and you noticed it right from the start and about the youth/innocence. There are some good explanation videos, as you said that would be helpful. lol I went back and looked and I think I liked the one by "Dont Worry I'm not Afraid"... don't watch the one by xCeleste. Not because her stuff isn't great, but hers puts it in context of a whole suite of BTS videos and overarching story that may get spoiled.
My guess is my comment is a bit late and unhelpful, but just wanted to post, and let you know I did really enjoy your reaction and understood your desire to want to document it in case you did end up liking it, since you didn't get to do that for 1D.
I won't recommend any, since i'm guessing many others already did, lol, but look forward to seeing you again. :)
👍 I also recommend the "Don't Worry I'm Not Afraid" explanation video for Blood, Sweat and Tears. It's a great place to start for better understanding this video and its symbolism without diving into the BTS Universe storyline. 💜
Thank you so so so much for your very kind comment! Also thank you for your recommendation, because a lot of people told me about the xCeleste one but then other told me to not watch it for now. So it's nice to have an alternative. And don't worry, you're not late. I'm filming my next BTS reaction today so it arrived in time. Again, thanks a lot and hope you have a great day/night!
I know this might be a bit late, but this was so refreshing to watch, I don't know. Your thoughts were so great and insightful, I love it. Your editing is amazing and funny, it's not too much but makes me laugh. I really hope you keep with this journey, I want to see where this goes. Amazing! You nice, keep going! Also, wait you know german? Hallo!
Omg
Your reaction is literally amazing 💜
Thanks for your attention and I really hope u’ll react to more bts content 🤞🏻
Hi thank you so much for your lovely comment! And more BTS is comming soon.

Your 148th subscriber! Soon you'll reach 1k 😃💕
OMG thank you so much!! It really means a lot
The One Direction to BTS pipeline is very real. I got into BTS this year and I think I was so late into getting into them bc I still wasn’t over One Direction
RAPlNE
Rm ( Main rapper)
Suga ( lead rapper)
Jhope ( lead rapper)
* Jungkook ( Sub rapper)
VOCAL LINE
Jungkook ( Main Vocalist )
Jimin ( lead vocalist)
Taehyung ( Vocalist)
Jin ( Vocalist)
DANCE LINE ( who takes part in Dance break)
>Jhope ( Dance leader / Main Dancer) Hiphop style dancer
>Jimin ( Main dancer) more contemporary style dancer
>Jungkook ( Lead dancer) sharp powerful dancer. His style is between jhope and jk
> Taehyung ( dancer) smooth dancer.
But All 7 can dance
I know i'm late but J-hope is also a sub-vocalist, just like Jk is a sub-rapper!
Wow You did rlly we’ll figuring out a lot of things! Most reactors don’t rlly get anything and are just confused the whole time which is normal so it’s very cool that you caught on to some stuff
Thank you! I feel like I abused my last pair of working brain cells on that video lol
Again, thank you for your lovely comment. Hope you're having a wonderful day/night!
@@lisontherecord Aw same to you :)
Oh welcome darling, to the best rabbit hole ever 💜
Thank you so much love!
I'm maybe late and I don't know if you'll read this but this song is basically about coming out from innocence, that's why I think the balloons where there to represent youth and then breaking that innocence(yeah you where right to think this about it). Loved the reaction keep going and I hope to see you become an army in the future 😁
Hey there! Don't worry about being late, you're basically just like Gandalf and wizards never arrive too soon or too late, they arrive when they're meant to.... ok, maybe my geek is showing now with that LOTR reference 😅
What I mean to say si that regardless of when you arrive, I still appreciate it and even more the fact that you took time to leave a comment. Also glad to know I'm not the only one who interprets balloons that way. Also thanks for the compliment! I'm having such a great time with BTS that I think it's inevitable that I'll become an army in the future.
Thank u...nice reaction ..hope u have more time to listen and watch bts
I'm so excited to go on this journey with you! I can't wait to see what you think of the rest. I won't even recommend songs. just explore! BTS finds you when you need it most, so enjoy the journey and I'll be here right with you! ❤
Thank you so much for your kind comment!
Oh my god I so like your reaction, please do more 🥰
What a smart girl!!!!!
Thank you! Do I get a cookie? Hehe
Hope you have a nice day/night!
Tbh i never analyze the theory.. i just went mani mani mani LMAO
HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA that's another way to do it, yes.
Pls watch the explanation videos of Bts songs blood sweat and tears, Daechwita, Ugh, idol, spine breaker, baepsae, persona,etc if you want to understand their songs
Okay so I LOVE you, but when you showed little Fiona with her wittle pink bow and her fluffy little face, I almost cried. Let me move in with you aw!! 🥺💜💜💜
RIGHT? I UNDERSTAND YOU 100%! She makes me cry all the time. She's so fluffy and really cuddly. She likes to cuddle up to you to sleep. My heart can't take it sometimes...
@@lisontherecord You’re sooo lucky!! My heart would burst with love and happiness. 💜
Love your reaction
👍🏼👍🏼Thumbs up reaction! BTS has tons of content. They have their variety shows like Run BTS, In the Soop, and their documentary movie, Burn the Stage, (which when released broke One Direction’s movie record). BTS release music for Army for free on SoundCloud. They live stream with Army. They are constantly here for us. Go on the journey; it’ll change you.
Thank you for your nice comment! Also thanks a lot for the info and recommendations. I'll write all of this down. Hope you have a nice day/night!
Looool. There is no getting out of "that" mindset in BST, the music video Hobi once admitted was the first time they actively attempted to be sexy.
you should watch bts film out the live version. you can hear there real voices and they are beautiful.
Hi there! Thanks so much for the recommendation!
You can react to
BTS albums in order
Like a whole journey.
You will see the improvement and Change in music genre ands style.
Each album is based on concept
Like school trilogy
Youth concept
Love, destiny , tear
Love yourself concept
And many more
Bts is my personal favorite artist of all time, but there are sooooo many kpop groups that go under appreciated and I think she should expand after bts to not just bigger groups like black pink, but any kpop sound she would be interested in
Pls watch The rise of bangtan docu-series chapter 1-21
I say in the future definitely watch their music videos with subtitles on so you can understand their lyrics
