Hi! I'm coming back after a month 😅 Watched reactions to 'BORN SINGER ' & 'OUTRO:TEAR' but he is still the best one. I go back to his reactions after watching 5-13 no other reactions to refresh 😅 Because I get numb from the "wow" "crazy" "that's hard".. I wish he could do more reactions, but no pressure tho because I know this is not his full time job hehe But he is the best one yet for me. Of course we got some genuine ones too out there, subscribed to the as well but sometimes the hype is too much for me. I prefer his conversational type of reaction, I really feel like he is having a conversation with me rather than putting up a show..
@@LolliJojofor real… that’s what I freaking love. He re reads the lyrics over and over again if he has to 😂 but in order to not miss anything and to understand it and I respect that so much 🙏🏼💜 I wish more reactors cared this much. Awesome reaction GameBoyy 310 💜💜💜
As you can also observe, they all pronounce “tear” differently to coincide with their feelings of disbandment RM = Tear as in crying because he’s sad, angry, and a little bitter that they’re choosing to end things Suga = Tear as in tearing apart (or ripping something off causing it to leave a wound behind) and he’d rather just forget they ever happened so he won’t feel that pain anymore JHope = Them disbanding leaves him in fear because, at the time, their group was all he knew in regards to how to survive in the industry Lastly, in 2018, they were contemplating disbandment not because of the hate they were receiving, but because of how famous they got and the exhaustion it took to get there. Around this time, their contract was ending and they were deciding if they should renew or disband. Add to the mix that they were burnt out af since they were running at full speed to achieve their dreams, plus, they also felt like they reached fame and success so fast and at such a young age, so they were worried that they wouldn’t be able to “top/surpass” themselves if they stayed together. They were worried about not being able to do better or achieving more than they already had at the time because of the pressure they were receiving from overseas and their own country to prove that they’re not just one trick ponies. So disbanding for them was the safest option, it would’ve been like them tapping out while they were still on top instead of waiting until they crashed. BUT I’m so happy they worked through all of that, they were all around 21-26 years old during this time, so I understand that that kind of fame is scary and what burnout can do to your mental state. It’s beautiful to see how they came out of it more connected to each other and to their fans, and how their music is still as authentic as it was when they started in 2013. And just to add, they were already relatively successful from 2015-2016, especially in Asian countries. But 2017-2018 was really difficult for them because they were finally getting recognition in the US (winning awards and performing on award shows). That’s what I meant when I said “they reached fame and success so fast,” it was a whirlwind for them because they were the only Korean artists doing it at the time, they had no one to guide them or no one to look up to. And at a young age, it’s quite daunting 🥲 PS sorry for the long comment, I’m just so passionate about making people understand their struggles and how they overcame it. It’s truly relatable to people of all ages. That’s why their music touches any one who comes across them. It’s because they incorporate their raw feelings.
They are the strongest people I know. People say "don't give up" so easily but it's not that easy to overcome your fears, your emotions and handle the pressure and keep doing what you are doing. That takes a lot of courage. Huge respect to them. I was so close to quitting college and they made me realise how wrong I was. They made me realise that you never know what's on the other side and if I quit, I would never ever get to know that. I'm truly thankful to. them and will always love them.
It is as you said it, and it's hard to put all that in few words, the hardships they went through that period still present to this days in armys hearts, a reminder to never take them for granted and to engrave in your bones they're humans too. I'm so grateful to them for staying together 💜
Just so you know: we used to think outro:tear was a raw romantic rap song, but they disclosured to us that it was actually about BTS as a group. In 2018 they went through some hardships to the point of thinking of disbandment and all. Till this day this is one of my favorite songs on their discography. It's so straight forward, so raw, so well produced, so well dellivered. The cadence, the flow, the meaning... to know that they overcame a lot of their fears and anxieties of that time.. truly... a masterpiece.
one thing that should be clarified about the disbandment is that they were not thinking literally about wanting to disband, their contract was going to end and in 2018 they needed to make the decision if they were going to sign a contract again with their same company, I am sure that it was not an easy decision for them because after all the difficulties and hardships they went through it was terrifying to think about what would happen if they disbanded or if they stayed together as a group because being on the spotlight can be scary
@@taequilasilver7183 hmmm… but they actually thought about it.. and it was not just because of their contract, in their 2018 MAMA speech Seokjin says: “we had some time to talk to each other and even thought whether we should disband or not..” It’s not a bad thing, I’m in no way disregarding their connection and commitment with their art and fans, and we know they love each other a lot and are basically a family, but like you said: being on the spotlight can be scary sometimes. And they were scared. But they were able to cross that bridge and grow even more! Nowadays I think they know way better how to handle their success and fame :)
The rap line wrote the lyrics as if their hearts were being torn out to leave their love, their family, everything they knew and loved. If they could no longer be together as a group, that’s the pain they felt. 💜
@@Artfrg4 that’s what used to hurt me the most. And to think that they showed the song to all the members and they cried together… it makes me wanna cry all over again.
yes, we used to think it was like a break up song cause it's part of their love yourself trilogy where the narrative is kinda about how your self-esteem and how you love yourself affects your relationships with others
Oof... Born Singer to Outro: Tear. Talk about whiplash. "We finally made it" to "I can't do this anymore." 😭😭😭 They're both incredibly powerful performances, but for *completely* different reasons. Proof that the ones you love the most can hurt you the deepest... it takes a lot of strength and trust to open up to someone like that. I'm in awe of Yoongi for writing this, but even more so that they shared it with ARMY after the fact. I can't imagine how painful it was for them to sing this live.
Yes, and you sincronize them when you enter the venue of the concert, this way the production knows where every Army bomb is and they can use it to change colors, write things in the crowd, pulse to the beats. It’s an experience. 💜
My tears aren't stopping these songs means a lot to BTSARMY........Do you know the struggle of BTS sleeping together in a little room, living together in a small dorm seeing big future dream under a financially very weak company,making albums in garage, giving flyers in road to asking to come their free concert...The struggle they have faced and we have witnessed is alot....They were mere teen age boys with big dreams,a lot passion and with alot uncertainty still they made it ...Mad respect to BTS 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Now Our 😭BTS are living legends and kings writing history in music industry in front of the whole world... they are now with #900awards,#28 guinnes world records,most streamed group of all time and 9th most streamed artist with 33B streams ,2020's most selling album with 5M sells,most viewed artist on RUclips with most viewed viewed video of 108M views in first 24hrs,#7 no 1 songs at billiboard top10 main single chart and many more..... Moreover they have broken #22 years record of The Beatles,#36 years record of Michael Jackson and #24 years record of Celine Dion and #5 years record of Adele ...now what do think about these achievements aren't proud of to be a part of their history writing and records breaking process ..I am so proud to be an army..OT7👑👑👑👑👑👑👑💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 (OT7- all bias together) If you want to know more about them watch introduction video by Taylor.
Outro:Tear grabs my soul everytime I hear it. Knowing what they were going thru...this song is straight up shadow work. So raw and real...they didn't have to let us ARMY in like that but they did.
Exactly the song is so beautiful dey all did very well 🥺💯💜but Jungkook JK adlibs and harmonizing with everyone with his high note here is just everything 🥺💜😌 love y'all BTS forever
This!!! This is what makes their relationship with Army so special! They keep it real and just tell us as it is as much as they can. I think that's why we love them so "specially" ( I don't know how to say it in another way). I love this! 💜
The bulbs are called army bombs and they’re BTS’s official light stick. When you go to a concert you enter your seat number on the app and it will change colors in sync, most kpop groups have a light stick. Also, Outro Tear is a song the rap line wrote when BTS was going through a hard time and was considering disbanding. They played this song for all of the members and they all cried. I’m so happy they decided to not disband and to push through those hard times. They’ve helped so many people get through rough times too 💜 Jin (the oldest) already enlisted in December and Hope leaves this month sometime💔 We will miss them dearly but the sooner they go the sooner they return💜
Omggg I saw you on twt under one of Ameere posts!🌷 But yeah, those are our beautiful Army Bombs, BTS were the first ones to have an official lightstick and official fandom name, and all Kpop started to follow. BTS does and everyone follows.
Each of the 3 rappers expanded on 3 different layers of this song Tear -- (as in tears from crying) Tear -- (as in tearing up a piece of paper) Fear -- (this is straightforward) the verses show it deep
It's not a thought actually RM said that on one of his live. He was breaking down the song for ARMY. The first Tear (😢) is in representation of RM The second Tear (tearing a paper/torn apart) represents Suga's take And Fear (😨) is Jhope's feel on it. Each one wrote their part. Suga wrote the melody, and then each one wrote their part. That is what RM explained. The rest follows after completing the song, suga played the song for the members.
When I watched for the first time this stage mix of Born singer I've read a comment that stuck with me. Notice how in the concert footage from their early days they start the song facing each other and halfway through turning to the crowds, but in the later footage they start facing the crowd and turning halfway through the song to face each other. It simbolised the way they developed into artists. At the begging they face to the members because they only had each other as support and, after the debut, they face the crowds. But in the other footage they start facing the crowds as they always do to only turn again to face the members because they are a family and they are each other strength.
@julieduong6571 1 second ago (edited) 9 years ago scrollN around then Born Singer pop up (white hoodie/black jacket •didnt have U🧪 account YET) i clickD ▶️...guys turn & look @ ARMY: 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
“the passion in their eyes” “no that’s just the eyeliner” 😂 armys know this reference 👆🏼😅 but yes i agree with you. the passion bts have for music, it can’t be faked. you feel & see it on every song, every performance, every interview. and that’s these guys are loved by millions all around the world. thank you so much for giving them a chance 💜
33:25 this is why ARMY is so protective. We know how special they are, alot of us wouldnt be here without their music. BTS just wants to do music their way, no cheating, no games, no payola and ARMY will continue to support them so that they are untouchable. Every member so far did their solo their way, and they all broke records. ARMY forever, Bangtan forever.

When you said "Guard these boys".....Man, that hit me straight in the heart. I'm not just being a sycophant bc I'm a fan but that's how Army feels about them. This type of talent doesn't come around every day. They're truly special individuals who have the power to uplift and inspire people everywhere. That's why Army is so passionate about defending them against everyone. BTS are a a gift and once again, I thank you for your taking the time to dive into their music with an open mind.
You said exactly what im feeling about BTS and their music. They/it touches everyone if you just let them in. Their words and actions speak to my heart. I really feel i never walk alone.
YOU DID BOTH! yaaaaaaasssss!!! Born singer is a beautiful adaptation! Born singer is their statement as artists, their desires, their dreams, their fears, their goals This song was released in their early days and to see them now wow I have goosebumps. I love this song...TEAR was written for the members when they were considering disbanding as a group in 2018 (btw, it's my favorite song in the entire BTS discography). SUGA composed the melody and the rap line wrote the lyrics even though SUGA had a large part of the song written. Suga said: “The lyrics for ‘Tear’ were written for the members. When I was writing the melody, at the time, we were deeply contemplating whether we should quit or not. When I played the song for the members we all cried together.” Rm said tear as in crying . Suga said tear as in being torn. And Jhope said fear the fear of losing and he sum up crying and being torn in just one line. THIS SONG IS HEARTBREAKING! In an interview RM was asked which song he likes the most in the BTS discography and he said this song, he also said that he thought that all the members would say the same answer because of the meaning of the song. THANKS FOR YOUR REACTION
There's actually one more meaning of tear "hidden" in the song... Suga says T.E.A.R. which is a coping mechanism for loss: T - To accept the reality of the loss E - Experience the pain of the loss A - Adjust to the new environment without the lost person R - Reinvest in the new reality They are lyrical kings indeed. 💜
A little bit of unsolicited BTS history. They came from a small company with zero commercial backings, and because of this, the likelihood of them hitting it big or even surviving the industry was low. They used to have their performances cut from shows or shortened. Once, they even performed after a show was over so that the fans (who came just for them) wouldn't be disappointed (They were supposed to be the closer, but were cut). So, no one, not even ARMY, saw this coming (although we thought they deserved it from day one). They have climbed over more hurdles and obstacles than most because the odds were always stacked against them (even now still). But they overcame with grace and humility and are where they are today because they trust their music and fans. I genuinely enjoy the fact that you read the lyrics and try to understand what they mean. BTS share themselves through their music. Thank you for being respectful.
You might like Black Swan. The music video is a cinematic masterpiece, but aside from that, the song shows how passionate they are about their music. Its all beautiful
The Black Swan performance debut on James Corden’s show was my first moment I was wrecked for anyone else as stage performers. It still blows me away, so elegant and so powerful. m.ruclips.net/video/-Td1A7-BaME/видео.html
Exactly 💯🥰 all their songs av fantastic lyrics but light's song is wow I love that song cause it's help me including zero o clock so emotional 🥺🥺I love BTS forever and love JK for life 💜 Jungkook 💜💜jhope💜 jimin 💜jin💜 V 💜 Rm 💜 suga 💜 saraynae jikook 😌😌😌 BTS
Your intuition is correct, around blood sweat tear era J-hope was thinking about leaving BTS and the rap line made this. When the other members heard this for the first time they all cried 😢 that’s what I heard at least
I am a 77 year-old Grandmother and, I swear, two years ago I had exactly the same reactions as you're having when I first discovered these men...bouncing up and down in my chair, yelling, scaring the bejezzus out of my poor husband for hours at a time. I still do it! There's no end to their talent and, just as Suga said, if you open your mind, there'll be something here that you like. People need to RELAX and listen!
Amen to that!! I'm 59 and my 18 yr old twins introduced me to them. Been a Suga stan ever since!! I never even liked rap until BTS. Now at least I am willing to listen!
I miss gameboy sooo much. I’m glad he was part of my army journey and hope he is doing well. No one else compares to how he breaks things down and just plain enjoys all seven for their incredible art.
I dont see it mentioned here in the comments yet, but one of my favorite lines in SUGA's verse is his reference to the Worden's 4 Tasks of Grieving. At the time, He was still taking college courses and really interested in psychology. T.E.A.R.> the active process of grief... T= To accept the reality of loss, E= Experience the pain of loss, A= Adjusting to the new environment, R=Reinvest in the new reality. The guys have a habit of including so many angles, theories, and references to their music that several academic journals of different depts (including philosophical and business branches) have written research based on their music. 😂🤓💜
A little background info about Outro: Tear: “In EP.6 of Break The Silence, SUGA shared, ‘The lyrics for Tear were written for the members. When I was writing the melody, at the time, we were deeply contemplating whether we should quit or not. When I played the song for the members, we all cried together.’” (doolsetbangtan) The members were going through a very rough patch by 2018, and they were seriously considering disbanding. I believe there was a point in which j-hope was very, very close to leaving the band. they wrote the song about what they where feeling while going through the motions, thinking that their team, which by that point had been officially together for around 5 years, was coming to an end. they slightly talk about this in one of the end of the year awards of that year (MAMA 2018), where they even shed a few tears at the thought that by that point they wouldn’t have been together anymore. as you can imagine, it is an incredibly painful and emotional song lyrically because it’s very personal to every single member. i honestly don’t know how they were able to perform it throughout their whole Love Yourself AND Love Yourself: Speak Yourself Tours without a heavy heart… + also, you were in the right doolsetbangtan website at the beginning!! the guy you saw was just an ad lmao. just scroll a little to the bottom, and there should be a search bar where you can find pretty much all their songs, whether as a group or as soloists. hope this helped!
Thanks for explain all that. It gives us new ARMY directions on how to learn more and insight on where they were emotionally. So glad they chose to continue. Their messages need to be heard.
My favorite line by RM is “Let the haters hate on me, the thing they’ve always done” And man, RM is to this day HATED ON for every little thing he does. But he holds his head up high and keeps moving He’s just such an inspiring person. Not that he’s unbothered, but he really personifies “bulletproof” He just absorbs the hate and just is able to give back love, respect and honesty. If I loved him less I could talk about it more.
I’d highly recommend watching them do this on their Proof Live. It was the first time they were able to sing this in years and their maturity and growth is apparent in their vocals and visuals. It’s was like their goodbye to Army. This was before they knew they would be doing the Busan concert but it will bring tears in your eyes. Especially when RM does his as you can see him holding back tears and hear the pain and sadness and just overall sadness. But all 3 songs they did at that live are some of my favorites. 💜💜💜
I just discovered your channel today, and have been watching your BTS reactions for the last 4 hours. You have quite an insight into our boys, and what their music is all about. I am a 60 year old AA woman, and BTS has touched my soul like no other group ever has. These men are true artists, that have spent 12 years honing, and perfecting their craft. They are some of the best performers the music industry has to offer. I really appreciate you taking the time to get to know who they are. Once you fall down that BTS rabbit hole, there's no turning back. I will continue to watch ALL of your reactions, as you are not only entertaining, and real, you truly understand music, and I could learn a lot from you. Keep doing what you do. Thanks! OH, BTW....you should check out The "Proof" live performance. It is amazing! The guys sounded so good, I cried. Anderson Paak played drums on one of the songs. Give it a watch.
BTS gained so much success that they felt overwhelmed and disoriented. They began to talk about disbanding. Suga wrote this song about their end. He played it for all the members together. They cried together, then talked about their future. They finally knew that they wanted to stay together and continue on their musical journey together.
In K-pop, the way idols look is insanely important to companies. People said RM doesn't look good enough, or like a "typical idol," so they badmouthed him. That's why he always talks about it. P.S. hes absolutely gorgeous
It’s just the dynamic of his personality and actually all of ours. Sometimes we can be serious and smart and in other situations we can act like kids. He is the best!
I often say that j-hope's voice dances like his body. Look how extremely versatile he is, he raps and vocals with grace and bravery in the same verse. He really is a complete artist. Savage! ❤️🔥💜
Bts were facing a lot of hardships and went trough many hard times back in 2018 to the point they even considered disbanding, TEAR is a song produced and mainly written by suga during those times to his members, the lyrics are dedicated to them, they said that when suga played the song for them for the first time, they all cried together The meaning behind outro tear always breaks my heart

I wish more reactors had Gameboyys’ authenticity, knowledge, and wise insight. I learnt a lot about hip hop from Gameboyy. Hopefully you’ll be back with BTS’ return. Before Outro Tear, I’d only seen the more US commercialised BTS pop - Butter, Dynamite - clearly BTS was entertaining and talented - but the music was not quite for me. Just last year I discovered the BTS rapline via Agust D’s ‘Snooze’, one of Ryuichi Sakamoto’s final pieces. As a decades long fan of Sakamoto, I had to check out his piano performance. By chance, Outro Tear live at Wembley (black Dior) popped up in my recommendations. Stunning - raw emotion and artistry - the flow and the story telling - breathtaking. This BTS was different from media stereotypes. BTS rap line has a special place - RM, Suga and J-Hope are artistic geniuses - emotionally mature and politically aware, bop kings - Black Swan, Spring Day, paldogangsan, Ma City, Whalien52, 134340, Outro Wings. Joon’s poetry, Yoongi’s raw philosophy and Hoseok’s vocal/rap/dance synthesis - groundbreaking.
In Break The Silence,(of of the BTS docu series) SUGA shared that the lyrics for Tear were written for the members. He said that when he was writing the melody, at that time, the 7 were deeply contemplating whether they should quit(re-sign together as a group in the same company) or not. Apparently, when he played the song for the members, they all cried together that day...
Someone may have already said this but Namjoon used to win poetry contests as a child. Around ten or eleven he became obsessed with hip hop and the rest is history.
Tear is a very emotional song for BTS. 2018 was a rough year for the band as they were getting bigger worldwide. But the pressure was almost too much to bear for them. The rap line wrote this song as a "goodbye " song for the members and when all of them gathered and listened to this song together they were all crying😢😭. They were going to disband but thank God they didn't. RM= Tear is like crying tears Suga= Tear is ripping off J-Hope= Fear
Yeah, they had this in mind while writing Tear, but when they released it they were already in a better place. The real goodbye song was "Let go" from The japanese album. Face yourself was supposed to be their last album back then
@@cokolwiekjestdostepne9607 Yes, that's right. I was going to write that too but I thought it would be too complicated. Not everyone knows their journey. Thank you for bringing this up. Whenever I listen to "Let go" there's no way I won't tear up🥺💜
Don't worry I just thought I'll mention let go, because noone talks about it and it's such a masterpiece. 😭💜 But I see a lot of people twisting and mixing the story. They just said they cried after listening, but from some comments here you can think that Suga and Outro:Tear singlehanded saved the band. I get iritated at people not doing fact checks and writing colorized truth 😂
Let Go is not a BTS good bye song though it certainly is a sad one about a breakup. The only one is Outro: Tear. And to this day we don’t know exactly what was going on, ARMY not pretending to understand or know, but respecting their privacy. The only thing we can say is that early in 2018 they went through challenges that brought this to mind. But that is ALL we know And as to Don’t Leave Me, it is the third single from the Japanese album Face Yourself and also serves as the original soundtrack for the Japanese series Signal (2018), meaning it was commissioned for that purpose
Unfortunately these TALENTED MEN STILL receive HATE so many are JEALOUS of them but they still remain HUMBLE & never forget there sacrifices or hardships GOAT of our time 👑👑💜💜❤️❤️
"Born Singer" was written mere days after their debut and after "Born Sinner" was released. RM was twenty years old at the time. When he sings the song in later years, he would often change the lyrics to reflect his age at that time. There's a recent performance of this song, in a set of performances called "Proof Live" if you want to watch it on your own time.

I've watched this reaction several times. You stand out among other reactors because - my opinion- you sound like you really know what you are talking about. Not just blowing smoke. Really appreciate your lyric breakdown, your knowledge of beats and production and your respect for the craft
When you clicked on Tear I had to take the deepest breath. It's all about their hardships, to the point of the possibility of disbanding. 2018 was a rough year, and that's how this song was born. As the story goes, the rap line played it for the vocal line and everyone was in Suga's (Yoongi, Agust D) studio crying. It's a very, very, very special song.
They were so overworked!! The amount of work they did 2018, their albums, shows, practicing, performances and world tour!! How did they survive?! I love them to death.
T.E.A.R. is an acronym for the psychological stages of grief, that includes feeling the emotion, and acceptance of the loss of that person or thing and reinvestment into the new reality.
Outer tear is a love letter for the members/break up, Suga wrote it when they where thinking about disbandment lots of raw emotions in this song. 2017/18 when they where breaking into the US market there was a lot of outside pressure and also the racism, they did not have anyone to help guide them. Luckily Bang PD the CEO of Big Hit make them take a one month vacation together to rebound. These guys live together for 13 years they went through a lot, they sure care about each other a lot, nothing fake about it. RM rap about tears/crying, Suga tear/rip apart and J Hope fear. When you have time watch the performance with J Hope in black the first video that pops up, more emotional..
I am 50. I have been to a lot of concerts over the years. I was able to see BTS in Vegas last year. I have never once felt like I was a part of the concert, a part of the band. A great big ass family reunion. Until BTS.
Isn't Outro:Tear just so freaking beautiful? It must be one of my favorite tracks from the whole BTS discography. Rapline as per usual has written their verses and made the track (Eventhough they had the sorrowful BTS disbandment narrative in heads as the purpose of this track) yet, in general, it's a very beautiful breakup song. Born Singer was released around the time they debuted. Just should've known this group was something else from the beginning. Man still can't believe the double J collab, J.Cole has always been super revered for our Rapline esp for Hobi ❤❤ It's such a circle of moments.
There is another version of this live where they are wearing Dior. JHope in black Dior outfit. Look it up. The way he sings this song on that stage brings a tear to my eyes. They have so much passion. Love them all so much.
Suga and V might have been the poorest of the brothers. He knew he had something to say. He knew he had words to share! I love all Seven. I'm so glad Suga persisted.
The way I got excited when he started to look up the lyrics. He’s gonna lose his mind when he starts to understand the layers of genius RM uses w Korean double entendres, etc. I hope he continues to dig in deeper!!
I know! I got so excited when he opened doolset but then he thought it was the wrong website and closed it and I was shouting for him to go back😭 I hope he finds it again!🤦🏻♀️😅
RM was rapping about how Korean rappers were telling him when he started out with BTS that he was "only" an idol, wearing makeup on stage "like a girl," and wasn't a "real rapper." RM is just inviting those guys to suck his ****. React to "Mic Drop" to see the ultimate rebuttal to those same guys who told RM and Suga that BS years before. Lovin' your reactions to BTS!
Love that you actually analyze the lyrics!!! You don’t just listen to the song and watch the video, you actually pause and rewind because you actually really want to read the lyrics and understand the song. Love that about you!!! Thank you for doing our boys justice!!!
I saw outdo tear live back in 2019 wearin their Dior outfits, I expected another track to be my favorite, yet I underestimated tear, it became my favorite performance the whole night.
Tear was also part of a trilogy of albums talking about different types of love: Her was first love, immature love, naive and romantic. Tear was the dark side of love, the pain that comes with it, or losing love. Answer was about loving yourself first. Self love. A really powerful set of albums that do need to be understood in context.
The genuine love they have for not only music but also us and each other is so memorable. It's amazing to see just humble, talented beings who talk about hardships, depression, love, lust, hate, etc. Thye genuinely love what they do. And we genuinely love them for it.
i'm glad you noticed RM's style of writing, his childhood aspiration was to be a poet. it's really cool that he translated his skill to rap early on cause he's a poetic beast now
Outro tear is written by all three rappers, they have written all of their verses up to now. It was mainly composed by Yoongi as he made the major part of the melody. Rapline is powerhouse for reasons 🔥
You are my ALL TIME favorite BTS reactor in the last 7 years. YOU ARE NOT INTO THIS FOR MONETARY GAINS. NO 2 LONG COMMERCIALS BEFORE WE START & interruptions throughout, YOU CURSE WHEN YOU’RE PASSIONATE NOT WORRYING ABOUT $$ GAINS, YOU ARE GRATEFUL, YOU SEEM TO GET BTS’ LYRICAL GENIUS & TALENTS, YOUR INFECTIOUS SMILE & YOUR AMAZING ENTHUSIASM. REWIND ALL YOU WANT DUDE. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 This ARMY LOVES YOU.
ugh yes. there was one reactor that i used to watch that would always start off, end, or interrupt their reaction videos just to promote their dumb singing lesson app. so annoying had to stop watching
This man out here bringing ARMY to tears reacting to Born Singer and Tear in the same video 😭😭😭 I’ve seen Tear performed live a few times and what I wouldn’t give to see Born Singer performed live. Both are such deeply personal songs for the boys and their fans and, damn, if you didn’t get me in my feels. Have been following BTS since 2015 and, yeah, they’re the biggest band in the world right now and people will try to trot out evidence to the contrary, but theirs is nothing short of an underdog success story. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. I truly find your reaction videos delightful to watch because you pay such close attention to the lyrics and you want to know what they’re trying to say. It’s disheartening when people only pay attention to the visuals or the overall sound without getting to know the message, because they put so much of themselves into their lyrics. Thank you 💜
Absolutely. Insecure and fearful. Those are the people who spread hate. If only they’d stop hating for long enough to listen to BTS messages about loving yourself, but it is what it is.
Oh I know live performance is always amazing!!!! Thank you for your very real reactions! I definitely appreciate how real your reactions are. And if you haven't seen the live version of the online concert song (ugh) have fun with that one their live performance in that particular one is amazing also. I know I'm late to this reaction so you may not even see my comment LOL. But I'm cruising through to check out others of yours.
I became ARMY in 2020 and got cold chills when I learnt that they had considered disbanding in 2018. To think I might never have discovered them. They literally are now a daily part of my life and a source of tremendous enjoyment. Glad you are listening to BTS. Borahae 💜
Everything these men do will put you in ur feels if u let them. Their original performance of Born Singer hold so much meaning in so little action. While they are known for their breathtaking choreo or how much they engage w/ARMY on stage this specific performance choice always stands out for me. The 1st time they choose to perform Born Singer live you see they choose to stand very simply in a circle facing each other confessing their love for their & the art as if it's a secret passion that only the 7 of them can only understand & share but for the final chorus they choose to turn & face the world & publicly profess their confession & allow us to join them in their beloved world of music & we become one as we all sing together. It's a moment when BTS & ARMY become as one in a fight against the world who is against us but we are gonna be ok cuz we have each other & music.
70 year old Army here again. Jin, the oldest enlisted last December. He was so impressive, that he was retained at the Boot Camp as an assistant training instructor. J-hope might be training at the same camp. We all hope so!!! Suga will probably enlist but there is a rumor that he may serve in a different capacity due to an old shoulder injury. He got hit by a car while doing deliveries on a bicycle when he was younger but years later in 2020 he had it repaired. It still gives him pain I heard. His pre-album release single drops after midnight tomorrow night eastern time, so 9pm West Coast. His album drops on the 21st I believe. Then his sold out world tour will begin. "Born Singer" was when they were quite young. Their stages are even bigger now. They sell out these venues literally in minutes. Yesterday Suga was announced as the brand ambassador for the NBA. Suga took his name from shooting guard (Shoo Ga), his favorite position in basketball. When he performs as Agust D, it is Suga spelled backwards and the t and D is for his hometown of Daegu (Town). Tear was written in 2018 and yes it was when they were thinking of disbanding. These are lyrics with true RAW EMOTION!!! Thank you for another great reaction. 💜
I haven't seen a lot of people talk about Born Singer so here I am. The song was remastered for the first time in 2013 but they only just got permission to upload officially release it since it was only on soundcloud until june of last year when it featured as the first track of their anthology album PROOF. I can't describe how much I love the song and the way all the 3 rappers talk about what they've individually gone through, each sharing their own story and struggles that I've heard countless of times now. The stage mix features 2 different performances: one from 2015 (either the first time they performed it or one of the first times) and the other is from 2017. There are changes in the lyrics, for example in the years they mention , and in the way the stage was produced. (also in the earlier performance they sing "i'm a born singer perhaps and early confession" while in the latter one they sing "i'm a born singer perhaps a late confession") In the first one (2015) they are facing each other and at the end they turn around to face ARMY but in the other one they start facing ARMY and at the end they turn to face each other. Makes me emotional but in a positive kind of way unlike other songs they have.
I have heard of "keyboard warrior" but never "thumb thug" I love it😂 I always look forward to your reactions! You can see your real appreciation for artistry and passion. I'm sure you'll eventually end up coming across some of their songs that you don't care for, and that's all good, I prefer an honest take than a fake one. I am happy you are checking them out, giving them a chance, and actually listening to the meaning of their songs! Armys are amazing and will always give you deeper insight into their songs, and member backgrounds in the comments! Excited to continue the BTS experience with you!
One of the amazing things I appreciate most about RM is that back when only he of the seven understood English well, he didn’t translated the hate, so he could protect his members. I guess he figured they got enough of that in Korean. #Leadership 💞💜💞
Outro Tear is a masterpiece. The song was written by Suga during a time when they contemplated breaking up at their peak. Fame and success was suffocating them. Suga played it for the group and they cried together deciding not to break up. They released and perfomed this song long before revealing it's meaning. And when I say it hit the fandom hard, I promise you the fandom was in tears at the idea they even thought about breaking up. This song took on a whole new feeling. I LOVE this song but it puts a pit in my stomach and tears in my eyes. Please react to House of Cards live by BTS. I feel like BTS will forever be proving themselves. They get so much hate. There is so much racism. Hell, US radio won't even play them. It's crazy how many people miss out on their talent. When you said crabs in a bucket its just like the Korean statement frogs in a well! And Outro Tear live is flawless. I saw it live 3 times!!! So crazy amazing. Kpop fandoms have official light sticks and they are all different. BTSs light sticks are called ARMY bombs. They are blue tooth synced to the sound system and controlled remotely during the concerts to pulse and change colors.
What I love about the editing of these two born singer videos together is that you can see how in the older performance bts is turned towards each other, signifying that they are strongly relying on each other, and then turn outwards showing that after relying on each other they can now rely on army to support them as well and are showing themselves to the world as BTS. But in the more recent performance from 2017 you can see how they start the performance facing outwards towards army and later turn in toward each other…showing how after receiving that love and support from army and its effects such as fame and attention, that they now have to rely on each other more heavily again to keep going on as BTS 💜
LONG EXPLANATION COMMENT AHEAD! ‼️ BORN SINGER: they (rapline) wrote this song right after their debut. BTS was originally supposed to be a Hip Hop group. They built the team around RM around 2010/2011 who was active in the underground rapper community (he was 16 at the time) and then held auditions for rappers and singers. SUGA (AgustD) was a rapper/producer. J-Hope was a street dancer who learned to rap from them and others in the company. At the beginning they had many many haters because they believed that they had "sold out" by joining an "idol" group and they had lost their genuine art. This was a recurring hate theme from a lot of people in all their early careers. They wrote this song a few months after their debut album was released in June 2013. Born Singer was both an homage to J. Cole whom all rapline admired (especially Hobi) and also a response to their haters. Outro Tear: Now this one is much more complicated. What you need to know is this song was written at the beginning of their massive international popularity (early 2018). BTS was already incredibly huge by that point. They had already done a few world tours and they were selling out stadiums. In 2018 and with Love Yourself: Her becoming increasingly more popular especially in the US mainstream (First Billboard award) they were under a lot of scrutiny and pressure. Now let's talk about Tear. There are so many different analysis of all the Love Yourself Trilogy albums and they are all fascinating and they are all mostly somehow correct. But one thing we can know for sure because Yoongi (SUGA/AgustD) said it in the LY documentary is the meaning behind his part in Tear. All three rappers always write their own lines. He said his was for BTS members themselves. At the time late 2017/2018 all the members were going through a lot of personal stuff. They never disclosed what it was but if you research thoroughly you can maybe find some glimpses as to what was going on with them. They were also among themselves talking about maybe disbanding as some of the members were really suffering personally and mentally. The members love each other immensely. Suga especially was not handling the thought of disbanding well. Hence "Tear". One thing you also need to know is that the Love Yourself Trilogy albums are incredibly complex and interconnected. Each rapper has a solo song in each of the albums with the title beginning with the word: "Trivia:" which means "one of three ways". So each rapline song in Love Yourself: Her and Love Yourself: Tear albums (Her and Tear) are from three different povs (Namjoon, Yoongi, and Hobi). In Tear they all show their own suffering in different ways. (I personally interpret it this way:Tear meaning crying is RM. Tear meaning tearing apart is Yoongi. And Hobi is Fear) but you can interpret it differently. All in all, what I am trying to say is listen to their albums in order to gain much more appreciation. They are incredible! Tldr; BTS especially rap line are amazing poets and musicians and world class performers! 💜
Actualy you got it right away. theyre talking about each other. RM wanted to end it back in 2018 it was too much. but Yoongi started writing this song and it became like a therapy session. All seven were actually part of it.
So Tear. Woo boy, you got Army's weakness here in the live. RM uses Tear (as is crying) Suga uses Tear (as in tore) And Jhope is Fear This song is part of the love yourself arc. It starts with the Album "Her" and the songs are about a love that's part of destiny and serendipitous. "Tear" is the next album, and it goes through the breakdown of relationships (any type, romantic, platonic, family) and the "Answer" is about who to love instead, and that's yourself. Cause how can you love another without loving yourself. This song also has a double meaning, in that it was written when the members were contemplating breaking up. So a lot of that devastation is in the writing and performance. Yoongi mentioned in a live that he played the song for the other members and they were a mess crying. It's one of those songs that is in the heart of every Army.
As a non Korean speaker , I always listen first , than read it and than watch it , so I can focus on the emotions while they perform. I appreciate that you want to unterstand the message. That’s the first step to becoming a member of army❤️
Tear is one of the songs that hurts the most out of their discography.. the depth of the lyrics, the weight of the world on their shoulders, the racism and hate, and Army at their wits end trying to protect them from it all. We all were hurting together, my heart aches just bringing it back up. But best believe we will always protect our boys. We have a saying in the fandom: APOBANGPO - Army forever, Bangtan Forever 💜 Thank you for reacting to these two important songs. Welcome to the family.
Those are our Light Sticks. Most KPop group fandom's have them. They are different for each group and may be different for each era of the group. They are synchronized during the concert via Bluetooth to coordinate with the music. There's a lot out there to check out for live performances. As an ARMY I can't tell you how much you are appreciated for these reactions.
30:20 you got it spot on 2018 was a really hard year for them and they were considering disbanding but luckily they thought it through they talk to each other and they decided not to. The first time they ever addressed it, and let us know that they considered disbanding was at an award show as their acceptance speech. MAMA 2018 Speech I watched that award show live I cried because members like Jin J-Hope and V were really seriously crying
I can tell you really do enjoy all the rappers but you smile everytime you see j hope. You can’t help but love that guy and his style and ability to perform😂 soft soft for Hobi
In fact, BTS performed this "live" in 2022 just sitting on chairs somewhere in the desert in the U.S., and they got permission to include it as the first song on their anthology album called "Proof" that came out around the same time (mid-2022). Jungkook was the one hitting those high notes at the very end of the song (just FYI). The bulbs are called ARMY Bombs and they are connected via blue tooth so that the lights can be controlled based on your seat at the concert. Outro Tear makes me tear up still, since it was when they were thinking of disbanding (early 2018), but luckily got beyond that. Now, they are on a break as a group because they are focusing on their solo works while they each gradually enlist in the mandatory military of South Korea. So far, one of them is enlisted (Jin), one of them is going soon (J-Hope), and I'm sure we will have most of them enlisted by the end of the year or early next year at the latest. There is hope they will get back together in 2025, and I hope they do. Military has a way of changing people, and they are getting to know themselves better as individuals through their solo works, so only time will tell. I truly hope these 7 brothers of different blood find their way back together once they fulfill their military requirements.
In 2018 after hard times the boys were considering disbanding, This is a song that Suga, RM, and Jhope wrote to the guys about their feeling. When they all listen to this song together they all cried. they ended up signing a new contract they said mainly because of the love they have for their fans and each other.
FEW HOURS TIL THE PRE-RELEASE SOON!!! *Spread the word, ARMY: SUGA as AgustD’s pre-release track “People Part 2” Ft. IU is dropping on Friday, April 7th. His official solo debut album 'D- DAY' is dropping on April 21st + his documentary.*
I appreciate you as a reactor. You are truly listening from A to Z, technically, musically and lyrically and you never miss every little detail. You want to decipher and understand. I must say you do it very cleverly. Thank you.
I am glad that they did not disband, because I can’t imagine not having these seven men who make music that have such deep meaning and impact on people. These seven men who saved so many peoples lives by being just the most positive, uplifting people that you could ever think of. I went down the rabbit hole in 2017 so the fact that in 2018 they were contemplating disbanding when I found out I cried so much because I’m like damn I only found you guys a year ago and I almost lost you guys as a group because I was so late to the train. It makes me wish that I had been there from the jump from 2013.
“Y’all better guard these boys with your life”! YES, SIR, ARMY IS! YOU, SIR, ARE ARMY! It’s up to YOU, too, to GUARD THEM with YOUR LIFE!! I just LOVE YOUR REACTIONS! I love you like a grandmother loves her grandchildren. You ARE PRECIOUS, just like these YOUNG MEN. JIN, the eldest, serving with JHOPE entering ANY DAY NOW. ARMY IS IN CONSTANT WEEPING MODE!
seeing them cry performing Born Singer broke me in a way I never came back from. to this day I cry thru this song any time it comes on because if this doesn't tell you how much this all means to them then you don't have a heart with a beat
I think you’re the first reactor that realized off the bat Tear is about the group’s relationship, not a romantic relationship. Love your reactions 🫡
Yes
Hi! I'm coming back after a month 😅 Watched reactions to 'BORN SINGER ' & 'OUTRO:TEAR' but he is still the best one. I go back to his reactions after watching 5-13 no other reactions to refresh 😅 Because I get numb from the "wow" "crazy" "that's hard".. I wish he could do more reactions, but no pressure tho because I know this is not his full time job hehe But he is the best one yet for me. Of course we got some genuine ones too out there, subscribed to the as well but sometimes the hype is too much for me. I prefer his conversational type of reaction, I really feel like he is having a conversation with me rather than putting up a show..
@@sweetlorre yes i completely agree. I personally like that he keeps going back to look at lyrics and visuals.
@@LolliJojo Fr, it shows that he really cares about the art they're making
@@LolliJojofor real… that’s what I freaking love. He re reads the lyrics over and over again if he has to 😂 but in order to not miss anything and to understand it and I respect that so much 🙏🏼💜 I wish more reactors cared this much. Awesome reaction GameBoyy 310 💜💜💜
As you can also observe, they all pronounce “tear” differently to coincide with their feelings of disbandment
RM = Tear as in crying because he’s sad, angry, and a little bitter that they’re choosing to end things
Suga = Tear as in tearing apart (or ripping something off causing it to leave a wound behind) and he’d rather just forget they ever happened so he won’t feel that pain anymore
JHope = Them disbanding leaves him in fear because, at the time, their group was all he knew in regards to how to survive in the industry
Lastly, in 2018, they were contemplating disbandment not because of the hate they were receiving, but because of how famous they got and the exhaustion it took to get there. Around this time, their contract was ending and they were deciding if they should renew or disband. Add to the mix that they were burnt out af since they were running at full speed to achieve their dreams, plus, they also felt like they reached fame and success so fast and at such a young age, so they were worried that they wouldn’t be able to “top/surpass” themselves if they stayed together. They were worried about not being able to do better or achieving more than they already had at the time because of the pressure they were receiving from overseas and their own country to prove that they’re not just one trick ponies. So disbanding for them was the safest option, it would’ve been like them tapping out while they were still on top instead of waiting until they crashed. BUT I’m so happy they worked through all of that, they were all around 21-26 years old during this time, so I understand that that kind of fame is scary and what burnout can do to your mental state. It’s beautiful to see how they came out of it more connected to each other and to their fans, and how their music is still as authentic as it was when they started in 2013.
And just to add, they were already relatively successful from 2015-2016, especially in Asian countries. But 2017-2018 was really difficult for them because they were finally getting recognition in the US (winning awards and performing on award shows). That’s what I meant when I said “they reached fame and success so fast,” it was a whirlwind for them because they were the only Korean artists doing it at the time, they had no one to guide them or no one to look up to. And at a young age, it’s quite daunting 🥲
PS sorry for the long comment, I’m just so passionate about making people understand their struggles and how they overcame it. It’s truly relatable to people of all ages. That’s why their music touches any one who comes across them. It’s because they incorporate their raw feelings.
They are the strongest people I know. People say "don't give up" so easily but it's not that easy to overcome your fears, your emotions and handle the pressure and keep doing what you are doing. That takes a lot of courage. Huge respect to them.
I was so close to quitting college and they made me realise how wrong I was. They made me realise that you never know what's on the other side and if I quit, I would never ever get to know that. I'm truly thankful to. them and will always love them.
It is as you said it, and it's hard to put all that in few words, the hardships they went through that period still present to this days in armys hearts, a reminder to never take them for granted and to engrave in your bones they're humans too. I'm so grateful to them for staying together 💜
@@Moriighan Literally they are the best thing that has happened to each and every army💜
i agree with you! they're so brave 💜
I hadn't noticed that listening to the song. I loved your interpretation 💜
Just so you know: we used to think outro:tear was a raw romantic rap song, but they disclosured to us that it was actually about BTS as a group. In 2018 they went through some hardships to the point of thinking of disbandment and all.
Till this day this is one of my favorite songs on their discography. It's so straight forward, so raw, so well produced, so well dellivered. The cadence, the flow, the meaning... to know that they overcame a lot of their fears and anxieties of that time.. truly... a masterpiece.
one thing that should be clarified about the disbandment is that they were not thinking literally about wanting to disband, their contract was going to end and in 2018 they needed to make the decision if they were going to sign a contract again with their same company, I am sure that it was not an easy decision for them because after all the difficulties and hardships they went through it was terrifying to think about what would happen if they disbanded or if they stayed together as a group because being on the spotlight can be scary
@@taequilasilver7183 hmmm… but they actually thought about it.. and it was not just because of their contract, in their 2018 MAMA speech Seokjin says: “we had some time to talk to each other and even thought whether we should disband or not..”
It’s not a bad thing, I’m in no way disregarding their connection and commitment with their art and fans, and we know they love each other a lot and are basically a family, but like you said: being on the spotlight can be scary sometimes. And they were scared. But they were able to cross that bridge and grow even more! Nowadays I think they know way better how to handle their success and fame :)
The rap line wrote the lyrics as if their hearts were being torn out to leave their love, their family, everything they knew and loved. If they could no longer be together as a group, that’s the pain they felt. 💜
@@Artfrg4 that’s what used to hurt me the most. And to think that they showed the song to all the members and they cried together… it makes me wanna cry all over again.
yes, we used to think it was like a break up song cause it's part of their love yourself trilogy where the narrative is kinda about how your self-esteem and how you love yourself affects your relationships with others
Oof... Born Singer to Outro: Tear. Talk about whiplash. "We finally made it" to "I can't do this anymore." 😭😭😭 They're both incredibly powerful performances, but for *completely* different reasons. Proof that the ones you love the most can hurt you the deepest... it takes a lot of strength and trust to open up to someone like that. I'm in awe of Yoongi for writing this, but even more so that they shared it with ARMY after the fact. I can't imagine how painful it was for them to sing this live.
you expressed it so well omg
The little bulbs are called army bombs they are the official lightsticks
Yes, and you sincronize them when you enter the venue of the concert, this way the production knows where every Army bomb is and they can use it to change colors, write things in the crowd, pulse to the beats. It’s an experience. 💜

Yes, 100%. BTS ARMY has been protecting and will continue to protect them. 💜
My tears aren't stopping these songs means a lot to BTSARMY........Do you know the struggle of BTS sleeping together in a little room, living together in a small dorm seeing big future dream under a financially very weak company,making albums in garage, giving flyers in road to asking to come their free concert...The struggle they have faced and we have witnessed is alot....They were mere teen age boys with big dreams,a lot passion and with alot uncertainty still they made it ...Mad respect to BTS 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Now Our 😭BTS are living legends and kings writing history in music industry in front of the whole world... they are now with #900awards,#28 guinnes world records,most streamed group of all time and 9th most streamed artist with 33B streams ,2020's most selling album with 5M sells,most viewed artist on RUclips with most viewed viewed video of 108M views in first 24hrs,#7 no 1 songs at billiboard top10 main single chart and many more.....

Outro:Tear grabs my soul everytime I hear it. Knowing what they were going thru...this song is straight up shadow work. So raw and real...they didn't have to let us ARMY in like that but they did.
Exactly the song is so beautiful dey all did very well 🥺💯💜but Jungkook JK adlibs and harmonizing with everyone with his high note here is just everything 🥺💜😌 love y'all BTS forever
This!!! This is what makes their relationship with Army so special! They keep it real and just tell us as it is as much as they can. I think that's why we love them so "specially" ( I don't know how to say it in another way). I love this! 💜
For real man i rarely listen to it bc it makes me SO sad
The bulbs are called army bombs and they’re BTS’s official light stick. When you go to a concert you enter your seat number on the app and it will change colors in sync, most kpop groups have a light stick. Also, Outro Tear is a song the rap line wrote when BTS was going through a hard time and was considering disbanding. They played this song for all of the members and they all cried. I’m so happy they decided to not disband and to push through those hard times. They’ve helped so many people get through rough times too 💜
Jin (the oldest) already enlisted in December and Hope leaves this month sometime💔 We will miss them dearly but the sooner they go the sooner they return💜
Please also remember that they were discussing if they were going to re-sign with Big Hit.
Omggg I saw you on twt under one of Ameere posts!🌷
But yeah, those are our beautiful Army Bombs, BTS were the first ones to have an official lightstick and official fandom name, and all Kpop started to follow. BTS does and everyone follows.
@@audreyp2425 that’s what I meant by “going through a hard time”. I don’t want to overload him w info since he hasn’t watched the guide yet
@@Zoeeshay98 I just want new ARMY to know that the catalyst was them deciding if they wanted to re-sign. I’m not critiquing you at all. 😊
@@audreyp2425 no worries, I wasn’t disregarding your comment. I just know what it’s like to get a ton of info at once 💜
Each of the 3 rappers expanded on 3 different layers of this song
Tear -- (as in tears from crying)
Tear -- (as in tearing up a piece of paper)
Fear -- (this is straightforward)
the verses show it deep
Wow that's an interesting thought! Love it!
It's not a thought actually RM said that on one of his live. He was breaking down the song for ARMY. The first Tear (😢) is in representation of RM
The second Tear (tearing a paper/torn apart) represents Suga's take
And Fear (😨) is Jhope's feel on it. Each one wrote their part. Suga wrote the melody, and then each one wrote their part. That is what RM explained. The rest follows after completing the song, suga played the song for the members.
When I watched for the first time this stage mix of Born singer I've read a comment that stuck with me. Notice how in the concert footage from their early days they start the song facing each other and halfway through turning to the crowds, but in the later footage they start facing the crowd and turning halfway through the song to face each other. It simbolised the way they developed into artists. At the begging they face to the members because they only had each other as support and, after the debut, they face the crowds. But in the other footage they start facing the crowds as they always do to only turn again to face the members because they are a family and they are each other strength.
you made me cry (again)

33:25 this is why ARMY is so protective. We know how special they are, alot of us wouldnt be here without their music. BTS just wants to do music their way, no cheating, no games, no payola and ARMY will continue to support them so that they are untouchable. Every member so far did their solo their way, and they all broke records. ARMY forever, Bangtan forever.
My tears aren't stopping these songs means a lot to BTSARMY........Do you know the struggle of BTS sleeping together in a little room, living together in a small dorm seeing big future dream under a financially very weak company,making albums in garage, giving flyers in road to asking to come their free concert...The struggle they have faced and we have witnessed is alot....They were mere teen age boys with big dreams,a lot passion and with alot uncertainty still they made it ...Mad respect to BTS 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Now Our 😭BTS are living legends and kings writing history in music industry in front of the whole world... they are now with #900awards,#28 guinnes world records,most streamed group of all time and 9th most streamed artist with 33B streams ,2020's most selling album with 5M sells,most viewed artist on RUclips with most viewed viewed video of 108M views in first 24hrs,#7 no 1 songs at billiboard top10 main single chart and many more.....

When you said "Guard these boys".....Man, that hit me straight in the heart. I'm not just being a sycophant bc I'm a fan but that's how Army feels about them. This type of talent doesn't come around every day. They're truly special individuals who have the power to uplift and inspire people everywhere. That's why Army is so passionate about defending them against everyone. BTS are a a gift and once again, I thank you for your taking the time to dive into their music with an open mind.
You said exactly what im feeling about BTS and their music. They/it touches everyone if you just let them in. Their words and actions speak to my heart. I really feel i never walk alone.
@@4ever7IN21bangtan and army is really a sea of love 💜
YOU DID BOTH! yaaaaaaasssss!!! Born singer is a beautiful adaptation! Born singer is their statement as artists, their desires, their dreams, their fears, their goals This song was released in their early days and to see them now wow I have goosebumps. I love this song...TEAR was written for the members when they were considering disbanding as a group in 2018 (btw, it's my favorite song in the entire BTS discography). SUGA composed the melody and the rap line wrote the lyrics even though SUGA had a large part of the song written. Suga said: “The lyrics for ‘Tear’ were written for the members. When I was writing the melody, at the time, we were deeply contemplating whether we should quit or not. When I played the song for the members we all cried together.” Rm said tear as in crying . Suga said tear as in being torn. And Jhope said fear the fear of losing and he sum up crying and being torn in just one line. THIS SONG IS HEARTBREAKING! In an interview RM was asked which song he likes the most in the BTS discography and he said this song, he also said that he thought that all the members would say the same answer because of the meaning of the song.
THANKS FOR YOUR REACTION
There's actually one more meaning of tear "hidden" in the song... Suga says T.E.A.R. which is a coping mechanism for loss:
T - To accept the reality of the loss
E - Experience the pain of the loss
A - Adjust to the new environment without the lost person
R - Reinvest in the new reality
They are lyrical kings indeed. 💜
@@imajinallthepurple Sorry but this is just a theory none of the boys never said this is true
G DRAGON THE KING ,
A little bit of unsolicited BTS history. They came from a small company with zero commercial backings, and because of this, the likelihood of them hitting it big or even surviving the industry was low. They used to have their performances cut from shows or shortened. Once, they even performed after a show was over so that the fans (who came just for them) wouldn't be disappointed (They were supposed to be the closer, but were cut). So, no one, not even ARMY, saw this coming (although we thought they deserved it from day one). They have climbed over more hurdles and obstacles than most because the odds were always stacked against them (even now still). But they overcame with grace and humility and are where they are today because they trust their music and fans. I genuinely enjoy the fact that you read the lyrics and try to understand what they mean. BTS share themselves through their music. Thank you for being respectful.
You might like Black Swan. The music video is a cinematic masterpiece, but aside from that, the song shows how passionate they are about their music. Its all beautiful
💜💜
Please please please!!!

The Black Swan performance debut on James Corden’s show was my first moment I was wrecked for anyone else as stage performers. It still blows me away, so elegant and so powerful. m.ruclips.net/video/-Td1A7-BaME/видео.html
Exactly 💯🥰 all their songs av fantastic lyrics but light's song is wow I love that song cause it's help me including zero o clock so emotional 🥺🥺I love BTS forever and love JK for life 💜 Jungkook 💜💜jhope💜 jimin 💜jin💜 V 💜 Rm 💜 suga 💜 saraynae jikook 😌😌😌 BTS
Your intuition is correct, around blood sweat tear era J-hope was thinking about leaving BTS and the rap line made this. When the other members heard this for the first time they all cried 😢 that’s what I heard at least
That’s deep. But this is their LIFE..so it’s believable this song would evoke some real emotions from the all
I am a 77 year-old Grandmother and, I swear, two years ago I had exactly the same reactions as you're having when I first discovered these men...bouncing up and down in my chair, yelling, scaring the bejezzus out of my poor husband for hours at a time. I still do it! There's no end to their talent and, just as Suga said, if you open your mind, there'll be something here that you like. People need to RELAX and listen!
Agreed... I am 72 ^^
Having ARMY at all ends of the spectrum is just so great!!!
I really laughed out loud from this, such a great story! 😄 I hope your husband has gotten used to it. 😊
Amen to that!! I'm 59 and my 18 yr old twins introduced me to them. Been a Suga stan ever since!! I never even liked rap until BTS. Now at least I am willing to listen!
I am 51 French and discovered them was an important point in my life they give me happyness and power everyday. They are my vitamines to go on
I miss gameboy sooo much. I’m glad he was part of my army journey and hope he is doing well. No one else compares to how he breaks things down and just plain enjoys all seven for their incredible art.
did he stop making reactions now?
I dont see it mentioned here in the comments yet, but one of my favorite lines in SUGA's verse is his reference to the Worden's 4 Tasks of Grieving. At the time, He was still taking college courses and really interested in psychology. T.E.A.R.> the active process of grief... T= To accept the reality of loss, E= Experience the pain of loss, A= Adjusting to the new environment, R=Reinvest in the new reality.
The guys have a habit of including so many angles, theories, and references to their music that several academic journals of different depts (including philosophical and business branches) have written research based on their music. 😂🤓💜
Didn’t know that! Thank u! 💜
I didn't know that, but I always wondered if the spelling like that had a specific meaning. Thank you!
this!!!

A little background info about Outro: Tear:
“In EP.6 of Break The Silence, SUGA shared, ‘The lyrics for Tear were written for the members. When I was writing the melody, at the time, we were deeply contemplating whether we should quit or not. When I played the song for the members, we all cried together.’” (doolsetbangtan)
The members were going through a very rough patch by 2018, and they were seriously considering disbanding. I believe there was a point in which j-hope was very, very close to leaving the band. they wrote the song about what they where feeling while going through the motions, thinking that their team, which by that point had been officially together for around 5 years, was coming to an end. they slightly talk about this in one of the end of the year awards of that year (MAMA 2018), where they even shed a few tears at the thought that by that point they wouldn’t have been together anymore. as you can imagine, it is an incredibly painful and emotional song lyrically because it’s very personal to every single member. i honestly don’t know how they were able to perform it throughout their whole Love Yourself AND Love Yourself: Speak Yourself Tours without a heavy heart…
+ also, you were in the right doolsetbangtan website at the beginning!! the guy you saw was just an ad lmao. just scroll a little to the bottom, and there should be a search bar where you can find pretty much all their songs, whether as a group or as soloists. hope this helped!
Thanks for explain all that. It gives us new ARMY directions on how to learn more and insight on where they were emotionally. So glad they chose to continue. Their messages need to be heard.
bro just wait until you see them dance while singing😭 their choreography is intense AND THEIR VOCAL STABILITY IS INSANE
it’s been confirmed that their youngest member likes to practicing singing while running on a treadmill just so he can perfect his vocal stability
@@anoushkagadhwal4553 it's true there's a video of him running on a treadmill while singing
This. I hope he reacts to Dionysus live, it'll blow his mind lol
@@kyuniboo2282Si y con mancuernillas deslizantes igual.Cansado hasta no respirar y sigue igual.uff!
My favorite line by RM is
“Let the haters hate on me, the thing they’ve always done”
And man, RM is to this day HATED ON for every little thing he does. But he holds his head up high and keeps moving
He’s just such an inspiring person. Not that he’s unbothered, but he really personifies “bulletproof”
He just absorbs the hate and just is able to give back love, respect and honesty.
If I loved him less I could talk about it more.
I’d highly recommend watching them do this on their Proof Live. It was the first time they were able to sing this in years and their maturity and growth is apparent in their vocals and visuals. It’s was like their goodbye to Army. This was before they knew they would be doing the Busan concert but it will bring tears in your eyes. Especially when RM does his as you can see him holding back tears and hear the pain and sadness and just overall sadness. But all 3 songs they did at that live are some of my favorites. 💜💜💜
Up 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🇧🇷
yes! Born Singer proof live is so worth it. love to see that reaction
Upppppppp!!!!!!!!!!
Thissss 💜💜 and Namjoon (RM) changes some of the lyrics, to fit their present selves
You need to get him a link!!!
I just discovered your channel today, and have been watching your BTS reactions for the last 4 hours. You have quite an insight into our boys, and what their music is all about. I am a 60 year old AA woman, and BTS has touched my soul like no other group ever has. These men are true artists, that have spent 12 years honing, and perfecting their craft. They are some of the best performers the music industry has to offer. I really appreciate you taking the time to get to know who they are. Once you fall down that BTS rabbit hole, there's no turning back. I will continue to watch ALL of your reactions, as you are not only entertaining, and real, you truly understand music, and I could learn a lot from you. Keep doing what you do. Thanks! OH, BTW....you should check out The "Proof" live performance. It is amazing! The guys sounded so good, I cried. Anderson Paak played drums on one of the songs. Give it a watch.
BTS gained so much success that they felt overwhelmed and disoriented. They began to talk about disbanding. Suga wrote this song about their end. He played it for all the members together. They cried together, then talked about their future. They finally knew that they wanted to stay together and continue on their musical journey together.
In K-pop, the way idols look is insanely important to companies. People said RM doesn't look good enough, or like a "typical idol," so they badmouthed him. That's why he always talks about it.
P.S. hes absolutely gorgeous
I am SO happy you really vibe with RM's lyricism. He is indeed a poet. My favorite, actually!
Definitely understandable
Him:you can see the passion in their eyes
Me:that’s probably the eyeliner 😂
I love him calling Namjoon big bro when he is the youngest of the rap line 😂❤❤❤
I love it, too!!!
Me too!!! 😂
It is the aura of the leader. He iw always confused to being the oldest one.
@@naniquena Not with their show Run BTS Namjoom is straight a kid.
It’s just the dynamic of his personality and actually all of ours. Sometimes we can be serious and smart and in other situations we can act like kids. He is the best!
I often say that j-hope's voice dances like his body. Look how extremely versatile he is, he raps and vocals with grace and bravery in the same verse. He really is a complete artist. Savage! ❤️🔥💜
Bts were facing a lot of hardships and went trough many hard times back in 2018 to the point they even considered disbanding, TEAR is a song produced and mainly written by suga during those times to his members, the lyrics are dedicated to them, they said that when suga played the song for them for the first time, they all cried together

@@himaririku9254 who is he ?
@@himaririku9254 🤣 no one knows him
I wish more reactors had Gameboyys’ authenticity, knowledge, and wise insight. I learnt a lot about hip hop from Gameboyy. Hopefully you’ll be back with BTS’ return.
Before Outro Tear, I’d only seen the more US commercialised BTS pop - Butter, Dynamite - clearly BTS was entertaining and talented - but the music was not quite for me.
Just last year I discovered the BTS rapline via Agust D’s ‘Snooze’, one of Ryuichi Sakamoto’s final pieces. As a decades long fan of Sakamoto, I had to check out his piano performance. By chance, Outro Tear live at Wembley (black Dior) popped up in my recommendations. Stunning - raw emotion and artistry - the flow and the story telling - breathtaking. This BTS was different from media stereotypes.
BTS rap line has a special place - RM, Suga and J-Hope are artistic geniuses - emotionally mature and politically aware, bop kings - Black Swan, Spring Day, paldogangsan, Ma City, Whalien52, 134340, Outro Wings. Joon’s poetry, Yoongi’s raw philosophy and Hoseok’s vocal/rap/dance synthesis - groundbreaking.
In Break The Silence,(of of the BTS docu series) SUGA shared that the lyrics for Tear were written for the members. He said that when he was writing the melody, at that time, the 7 were deeply contemplating whether they should quit(re-sign together as a group in the same company) or not. Apparently, when he played the song for the members, they all cried together that day...
Someone may have already said this but Namjoon used to win poetry contests as a child. Around ten or eleven he became obsessed with hip hop and the rest is history.
Tear is a very emotional song for BTS. 2018 was a rough year for the band as they were getting bigger worldwide. But the pressure was almost too much to bear for them. The rap line wrote this song as a "goodbye " song for the members and when all of them gathered and listened to this song together they were all crying😢😭.
They were going to disband but thank God they didn't.
RM= Tear is like crying tears
Suga= Tear is ripping off
J-Hope= Fear
@@snehalg.6059 It was supposed to be! Suga himself said it. He wrote this with the members and their struggles in mind!
Yeah, they had this in mind while writing Tear, but when they released it they were already in a better place. The real goodbye song was "Let go" from The japanese album. Face yourself was supposed to be their last album back then
@@cokolwiekjestdostepne9607 Yes, that's right. I was going to write that too but I thought it would be too complicated. Not everyone knows their journey. Thank you for bringing this up. Whenever I listen to "Let go" there's no way I won't tear up🥺💜
Don't worry I just thought I'll mention let go, because noone talks about it and it's such a masterpiece. 😭💜 But I see a lot of people twisting and mixing the story. They just said they cried after listening, but from some comments here you can think that Suga and Outro:Tear singlehanded saved the band. I get iritated at people not doing fact checks and writing colorized truth 😂
Let Go is not a BTS good bye song though it certainly is a sad one about a breakup. The only one is Outro: Tear. And to this day we don’t know exactly what was going on, ARMY not pretending to understand or know, but respecting their privacy. The only thing we can say is that early in 2018 they went through challenges that brought this to mind. But that is ALL we know
And as to Don’t Leave Me, it is the third single from the Japanese album Face Yourself and also serves as the original soundtrack for the Japanese series Signal (2018), meaning it was commissioned for that purpose
Unfortunately these TALENTED MEN STILL receive HATE so many are JEALOUS of them but they still remain HUMBLE & never forget there sacrifices or hardships GOAT of our time 👑👑💜💜❤️❤️
"Born Singer" was written mere days after their debut and after "Born Sinner" was released. RM was twenty years old at the time. When he sings the song in later years, he would often change the lyrics to reflect his age at that time.
There's a recent performance of this song, in a set of performances called "Proof Live" if you want to watch it on your own time.
He was actually only 18 years old at Debut... (20 in Korean Age)💜

I've watched this reaction several times. You stand out among other reactors because - my opinion- you sound like you really know what you are talking about. Not just blowing smoke. Really appreciate your lyric breakdown, your knowledge of beats and production and your respect for the craft
When you clicked on Tear I had to take the deepest breath. It's all about their hardships, to the point of the possibility of disbanding. 2018 was a rough year, and that's how this song was born. As the story goes, the rap line played it for the vocal line and everyone was in Suga's (Yoongi, Agust D) studio crying. It's a very, very, very special song.
I cry every time i hear it.
They were so overworked!! The amount of work they did 2018, their albums, shows, practicing, performances and world tour!! How did they survive?! I love them to death.
T.E.A.R. is an acronym for the psychological stages of grief, that includes feeling the emotion, and acceptance of the loss of that person or thing and reinvestment into the new reality.
Outer tear is a love letter for the members/break up, Suga wrote it when they where thinking about disbandment lots of raw emotions in this song. 2017/18 when they where breaking into the US market there was a lot of outside pressure and also the racism, they did not have anyone to help guide them. Luckily Bang PD the CEO of Big Hit make them take a one month vacation together to rebound. These guys live together for 13 years they went through a lot, they sure care about each other a lot, nothing fake about it. RM rap about tears/crying, Suga tear/rip apart and J Hope fear. When you have time watch the performance with J Hope in black the first video that pops up, more emotional..
Just a correction: It was written by all three of them. Please give credits where it’s due
this song was composed by SUGA and rapline wrote their own verses
@yellowamber
Actually, Suga helped J.Hope with his lyrics.
I am 50. I have been to a lot of concerts over the years. I was able to see BTS in Vegas last year. I have never once felt like I was a part of the concert, a part of the band. A great big ass family reunion. Until BTS.
Isn't Outro:Tear just so freaking beautiful? It must be one of my favorite tracks from the whole BTS discography. Rapline as per usual has written their verses and made the track (Eventhough they had the sorrowful BTS disbandment narrative in heads as the purpose of this track) yet, in general, it's a very beautiful breakup song.
Born Singer was released around the time they debuted. Just should've known this group was something else from the beginning. Man still can't believe the double J collab, J.Cole has always been super revered for our Rapline esp for Hobi ❤❤ It's such a circle of moments.
RM wanted to be a poet then he found rap and found he could mix poetry and music, and to this day he does this ❤️
There is another version of this live where they are wearing Dior. JHope in black Dior outfit. Look it up. The way he sings this song on that stage brings a tear to my eyes. They have so much passion. Love them all so much.
YES!! It’s the best performance overall. Totally worth watching again.
Definitely the best performance
That's the Wembley performance..
Suga and V might have been the poorest of the brothers. He knew he had something to say. He knew he had words to share! I love all Seven. I'm so glad Suga persisted.
The way I got excited when he started to look up the lyrics. He’s gonna lose his mind when he starts to understand the layers of genius RM uses w Korean double entendres, etc. I hope he continues to dig in deeper!!
I know! I got so excited when he opened doolset but then he thought it was the wrong website and closed it and I was shouting for him to go back😭 I hope he finds it again!🤦🏻♀️😅
RM was rapping about how Korean rappers were telling him when he started out with BTS that he was "only" an idol, wearing makeup on stage "like a girl," and wasn't a "real rapper." RM is just inviting those guys to suck his ****. React to "Mic Drop" to see the ultimate rebuttal to those same guys who told RM and Suga that BS years before. Lovin' your reactions to BTS!
Doolset Bangtan is indeed a blog. You had the right place. 😂
“Protect these boys - guard them with our life.”
Love that you actually analyze the lyrics!!! You don’t just listen to the song and watch the video, you actually pause and rewind because you actually really want to read the lyrics and understand the song. Love that about you!!! Thank you for doing our boys justice!!!
I saw outdo tear live back in 2019 wearin their Dior outfits, I expected another track to be my favorite, yet I underestimated tear, it became my favorite performance the whole night.
Tear was also part of a trilogy of albums talking about different types of love: Her was first love, immature love, naive and romantic. Tear was the dark side of love, the pain that comes with it, or losing love. Answer was about loving yourself first. Self love. A really powerful set of albums that do need to be understood in context.
Thank you for this answer. I was looking for the info to understand it. 💜
The genuine love they have for not only music but also us and each other is so memorable. It's amazing to see just humble, talented beings who talk about hardships, depression, love, lust, hate, etc. Thye genuinely love what they do. And we genuinely love them for it.
i'm glad you noticed RM's style of writing, his childhood aspiration was to be a poet. it's really cool that he translated his skill to rap early on cause he's a poetic beast now
RM gets to write using both English and Korean... he is a genius. His wordplay is amazing!!
Outro tear is written by all three rappers, they have written all of their verses up to now. It was mainly composed by Yoongi as he made the major part of the melody. Rapline is powerhouse for reasons 🔥
I got chills as soon as they started harmonising and got to the pinical of the line, talk about a perfect symphony!
You are my ALL TIME favorite BTS reactor in the last 7 years. YOU ARE NOT INTO THIS FOR MONETARY GAINS. NO 2 LONG COMMERCIALS BEFORE WE START & interruptions throughout, YOU CURSE WHEN YOU’RE PASSIONATE NOT WORRYING ABOUT $$ GAINS, YOU ARE GRATEFUL, YOU SEEM TO GET BTS’ LYRICAL GENIUS & TALENTS, YOUR INFECTIOUS SMILE & YOUR AMAZING ENTHUSIASM. REWIND ALL YOU WANT DUDE. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 This ARMY LOVES YOU.
I couldn't have said it better.
i know, hes the kind that makes it fun all over again!
ugh yes. there was one reactor that i used to watch that would always start off, end, or interrupt their reaction videos just to promote their dumb singing lesson app. so annoying had to stop watching
FACTS
Like I can’t believe he watched Mic Drop on his own, would’ve easily been 100k+ views. 💜
This man out here bringing ARMY to tears reacting to Born Singer and Tear in the same video 😭😭😭 I’ve seen Tear performed live a few times and what I wouldn’t give to see Born Singer performed live. Both are such deeply personal songs for the boys and their fans and, damn, if you didn’t get me in my feels.
Have been following BTS since 2015 and, yeah, they’re the biggest band in the world right now and people will try to trot out evidence to the contrary, but theirs is nothing short of an underdog success story.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. I truly find your reaction videos delightful to watch because you pay such close attention to the lyrics and you want to know what they’re trying to say. It’s disheartening when people only pay attention to the visuals or the overall sound without getting to know the message, because they put so much of themselves into their lyrics. Thank you 💜
“9 times out of 10, the people who say that shit are afraid of your talent.” FACTS!!
Love your reactions by the way.
Absolutely. Insecure and fearful. Those are the people who spread hate. If only they’d stop hating for long enough to listen to BTS messages about loving yourself, but it is what it is.
Oh I know live performance is always amazing!!!! Thank you for your very real reactions! I definitely appreciate how real your reactions are. And if you haven't seen the live version of the online concert song (ugh) have fun with that one their live performance in that particular one is amazing also. I know I'm late to this reaction so you may not even see my comment LOL. But I'm cruising through to check out others of yours.
I became ARMY in 2020 and got cold chills when I learnt that they had considered disbanding in 2018. To think I might never have discovered them. They literally are now a daily part of my life and a source of tremendous enjoyment.
Glad you are listening to BTS. Borahae 💜
Everything these men do will put you in ur feels if u let them. Their original performance of Born Singer hold so much meaning in so little action. While they are known for their breathtaking choreo or how much they engage w/ARMY on stage this specific performance choice always stands out for me. The 1st time they choose to perform Born Singer live you see they choose to stand very simply in a circle facing each other confessing their love for their & the art as if it's a secret passion that only the 7 of them can only understand & share but for the final chorus they choose to turn & face the world & publicly profess their confession & allow us to join them in their beloved world of music & we become one as we all sing together. It's a moment when BTS & ARMY become as one in a fight against the world who is against us but we are gonna be ok cuz we have each other & music.
70 year old Army here again. Jin, the oldest enlisted last December. He was so impressive, that he was retained at the Boot Camp as an assistant training instructor. J-hope might be training at the same camp. We all hope so!!! Suga will probably enlist but there is a rumor that he may serve in a different capacity due to an old shoulder injury. He got hit by a car while doing deliveries on a bicycle when he was younger but years later in 2020 he had it repaired. It still gives him pain I heard. His pre-album release single drops after midnight tomorrow night eastern time, so 9pm West Coast. His album drops on the 21st I believe. Then his sold out world tour will begin.
"Born Singer" was when they were quite young. Their stages are even bigger now. They sell out these venues literally in minutes. Yesterday Suga was announced as the brand ambassador for the NBA. Suga took his name from shooting guard (Shoo Ga), his favorite position in basketball. When he performs as Agust D, it is Suga spelled backwards and the t and D is for his hometown of Daegu (Town). Tear was written in 2018 and yes it was when they were thinking of disbanding. These are lyrics with true RAW EMOTION!!! Thank you for another great reaction. 💜
I haven't seen a lot of people talk about Born Singer so here I am.
The song was remastered for the first time in 2013 but they only just got permission to upload officially release it since it was only on soundcloud until june of last year when it featured as the first track of their anthology album PROOF. I can't describe how much I love the song and the way all the 3 rappers talk about what they've individually gone through, each sharing their own story and struggles that I've heard countless of times now.
The stage mix features 2 different performances: one from 2015 (either the first time they performed it or one of the first times) and the other is from 2017. There are changes in the lyrics, for example in the years they mention , and in the way the stage was produced. (also in the earlier performance they sing "i'm a born singer perhaps and early confession" while in the latter one they sing "i'm a born singer perhaps a late confession") In the first one (2015) they are facing each other and at the end they turn around to face ARMY but in the other one they start facing ARMY and at the end they turn to face each other. Makes me emotional but in a positive kind of way unlike other songs they have.
I have heard of "keyboard warrior" but never "thumb thug" I love it😂 I always look forward to your reactions! You can see your real appreciation for artistry and passion. I'm sure you'll eventually end up coming across some of their songs that you don't care for, and that's all good, I prefer an honest take than a fake one. I am happy you are checking them out, giving them a chance, and actually listening to the meaning of their songs! Armys are amazing and will always give you deeper insight into their songs, and member backgrounds in the comments! Excited to continue the BTS experience with you!
One of the amazing things I appreciate most about RM is that back when only he of the seven understood English well, he didn’t translated the hate, so he could protect his members. I guess he figured they got enough of that in Korean. #Leadership 💞💜💞
Outro Tear is a masterpiece. The song was written by Suga during a time when they contemplated breaking up at their peak. Fame and success was suffocating them. Suga played it for the group and they cried together deciding not to break up. They released and perfomed this song long before revealing it's meaning. And when I say it hit the fandom hard, I promise you the fandom was in tears at the idea they even thought about breaking up. This song took on a whole new feeling. I LOVE this song but it puts a pit in my stomach and tears in my eyes.
Please react to House of Cards live by BTS.
I feel like BTS will forever be proving themselves. They get so much hate. There is so much racism. Hell, US radio won't even play them. It's crazy how many people miss out on their talent.
When you said crabs in a bucket its just like the Korean statement frogs in a well!
And Outro Tear live is flawless. I saw it live 3 times!!! So crazy amazing.
Kpop fandoms have official light sticks and they are all different. BTSs light sticks are called ARMY bombs. They are blue tooth synced to the sound system and controlled remotely during the concerts to pulse and change colors.
What I love about the editing of these two born singer videos together is that you can see how in the older performance bts is turned towards each other, signifying that they are strongly relying on each other, and then turn outwards showing that after relying on each other they can now rely on army to support them as well and are showing themselves to the world as BTS. But in the more recent performance from 2017 you can see how they start the performance facing outwards towards army and later turn in toward each other…showing how after receiving that love and support from army and its effects such as fame and attention, that they now have to rely on each other more heavily again to keep going on as BTS 💜
LONG EXPLANATION COMMENT AHEAD! ‼️
BORN SINGER: they (rapline) wrote this song right after their debut. BTS was originally supposed to be a Hip Hop group. They built the team around RM around 2010/2011 who was active in the underground rapper community (he was 16 at the time) and then held auditions for rappers and singers. SUGA (AgustD) was a rapper/producer. J-Hope was a street dancer who learned to rap from them and others in the company. At the beginning they had many many haters because they believed that they had "sold out" by joining an "idol" group and they had lost their genuine art. This was a recurring hate theme from a lot of people in all their early careers. They wrote this song a few months after their debut album was released in June 2013. Born Singer was both an homage to J. Cole whom all rapline admired (especially Hobi) and also a response to their haters.
Outro Tear: Now this one is much more complicated. What you need to know is this song was written at the beginning of their massive international popularity (early 2018). BTS was already incredibly huge by that point. They had already done a few world tours and they were selling out stadiums. In 2018 and with Love Yourself: Her becoming increasingly more popular especially in the US mainstream (First Billboard award) they were under a lot of scrutiny and pressure.
Now let's talk about Tear. There are so many different analysis of all the Love Yourself Trilogy albums and they are all fascinating and they are all mostly somehow correct. But one thing we can know for sure because Yoongi (SUGA/AgustD) said it in the LY documentary is the meaning behind his part in Tear. All three rappers always write their own lines. He said his was for BTS members themselves. At the time late 2017/2018 all the members were going through a lot of personal stuff. They never disclosed what it was but if you research thoroughly you can maybe find some glimpses as to what was going on with them. They were also among themselves talking about maybe disbanding as some of the members were really suffering personally and mentally. The members love each other immensely. Suga especially was not handling the thought of disbanding well. Hence "Tear".
One thing you also need to know is that the Love Yourself Trilogy albums are incredibly complex and interconnected. Each rapper has a solo song in each of the albums with the title beginning with the word: "Trivia:" which means "one of three ways". So each rapline song in Love Yourself: Her and Love Yourself: Tear albums (Her and Tear) are from three different povs (Namjoon, Yoongi, and Hobi). In Tear they all show their own suffering in different ways. (I personally interpret it this way:Tear meaning crying is RM. Tear meaning tearing apart is Yoongi. And Hobi is Fear) but you can interpret it differently.
All in all, what I am trying to say is listen to their albums in order to gain much more appreciation. They are incredible!
Tldr; BTS especially rap line are amazing poets and musicians and world class performers! 💜
thank you for this comment! i hope he sees it💜
Actualy you got it right away. theyre talking about each other. RM wanted to end it back in 2018 it was too much. but Yoongi started writing this song and it became like a therapy session. All seven were actually part of it.
So Tear. Woo boy, you got Army's weakness here in the live.
RM uses Tear (as is crying)
Suga uses Tear (as in tore)
And Jhope is Fear
This song is part of the love yourself arc. It starts with the Album "Her" and the songs are about a love that's part of destiny and serendipitous. "Tear" is the next album, and it goes through the breakdown of relationships (any type, romantic, platonic, family) and the "Answer" is about who to love instead, and that's yourself. Cause how can you love another without loving yourself.
This song also has a double meaning, in that it was written when the members were contemplating breaking up. So a lot of that devastation is in the writing and performance. Yoongi mentioned in a live that he played the song for the other members and they were a mess crying.
It's one of those songs that is in the heart of every Army.
As a non Korean speaker , I always listen first , than read it and than watch it , so I can focus on the emotions while they perform. I appreciate that you want to unterstand the message. That’s the first step to becoming a member of army❤️
Tear is one of the songs that hurts the most out of their discography.. the depth of the lyrics, the weight of the world on their shoulders, the racism and hate, and Army at their wits end trying to protect them from it all. We all were hurting together, my heart aches just bringing it back up. But best believe we will always protect our boys.
We have a saying in the fandom: APOBANGPO - Army forever, Bangtan Forever 💜
Thank you for reacting to these two important songs. Welcome to the family.
3:08 that inhale exhale you did is so real
every time bro
every time that verse yoongi is rapping makes me experience that
I was a rap line only guy too, but then I saw House of Cards live. the vocals changed my world
When hobi starts singing we want more always 😭💜🔥💅🏼
you had the right page with the wordpress for doolset.
This song makes me teary eyed. They made it and I’m so proud
Those are our Light Sticks. Most KPop group fandom's have them. They are different for each group and may be different for each era of the group. They are synchronized during the concert via Bluetooth to coordinate with the music. There's a lot out there to check out for live performances. As an ARMY I can't tell you how much you are appreciated for these reactions.
Right on Sister!
I love RM'S words , love you GAMEBOYY 310 you see it and feel it too.💜 they are a force hard to behold. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
30:20 you got it spot on 2018 was a really hard year for them and they were considering disbanding but luckily they thought it through they talk to each other and they decided not to. The first time they ever addressed it, and let us know that they considered disbanding was at an award show as their acceptance speech. MAMA 2018 Speech I watched that award show live I cried because members like Jin J-Hope and V were really seriously crying
Their performances at Korean award shows are beyond amazing, that's when you can really see how amazing and in synch they are as a group
Thanks for continuing to discover our boys with an open mind.
I can tell you really do enjoy all the rappers but you smile everytime you see j hope. You can’t help but love that guy and his style and ability to perform😂 soft soft for Hobi
J hope has a natural bright light ☀️
In fact, BTS performed this "live" in 2022 just sitting on chairs somewhere in the desert in the U.S., and they got permission to include it as the first song on their anthology album called "Proof" that came out around the same time (mid-2022). Jungkook was the one hitting those high notes at the very end of the song (just FYI). The bulbs are called ARMY Bombs and they are connected via blue tooth so that the lights can be controlled based on your seat at the concert. Outro Tear makes me tear up still, since it was when they were thinking of disbanding (early 2018), but luckily got beyond that. Now, they are on a break as a group because they are focusing on their solo works while they each gradually enlist in the mandatory military of South Korea. So far, one of them is enlisted (Jin), one of them is going soon (J-Hope), and I'm sure we will have most of them enlisted by the end of the year or early next year at the latest. There is hope they will get back together in 2025, and I hope they do. Military has a way of changing people, and they are getting to know themselves better as individuals through their solo works, so only time will tell. I truly hope these 7 brothers of different blood find their way back together once they fulfill their military requirements.
strongly recommended that live in a desert
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤that's why they call them are seven kings because they dident give up😊
In 2018 after hard times the boys were considering disbanding, This is a song that Suga, RM, and Jhope wrote to the guys about their feeling. When they all listen to this song together they all cried. they ended up signing a new contract they said mainly because of the love they have for their fans and each other.
Finally someone sees it like I do.
Thank you GAMEBOY 310. You are as excited about their passion as I am.
FEW HOURS TIL THE PRE-RELEASE SOON!!!
*Spread the word, ARMY: SUGA as AgustD’s pre-release track “People Part 2” Ft. IU is dropping on Friday, April 7th. His official solo debut album 'D- DAY' is dropping on April 21st + his documentary.*
I appreciate you as a reactor. You are truly listening from A to Z, technically, musically and lyrically and you never miss every little detail. You want to decipher and understand. I must say you do it very cleverly. Thank you.
I am glad that they did not disband, because I can’t imagine not having these seven men who make music that have such deep meaning and impact on people. These seven men who saved so many peoples lives by being just the most positive, uplifting people that you could ever think of. I went down the rabbit hole in 2017 so the fact that in 2018 they were contemplating disbanding when I found out I cried so much because I’m like damn I only found you guys a year ago and I almost lost you guys as a group because I was so late to the train. It makes me wish that I had been there from the jump from 2013.
their eyes and faces for that last part just letting the fans sing... the passion is insane
I find it so funny he keeps calling Namjoon "Big Bro"! He's the leader but he is the baby of three older ones! 😂
EXACTLY. I'M "GUARDING THESE BOYS WITH MY LIFE" SINCE 2015 AND WILL BE GUARDING THEM FOREVER.
“Y’all better guard these boys with your life”! YES, SIR, ARMY IS! YOU, SIR, ARE ARMY! It’s up to YOU, too, to GUARD THEM with YOUR LIFE!! I just LOVE YOUR REACTIONS! I love you like a grandmother loves her grandchildren. You ARE PRECIOUS, just like these YOUNG MEN. JIN, the eldest, serving with JHOPE entering ANY DAY NOW. ARMY IS IN CONSTANT WEEPING MODE!
seeing them cry performing Born Singer broke me in a way I never came back from. to this day I cry thru this song any time it comes on because if this doesn't tell you how much this all means to them then you don't have a heart with a beat
