I would really love it if you could react to some RM. He released an album without being able to promote it, since he's in the military. His new album Right Place Wrong Person will blow your mind. Please take my word for it! There's an MV for nearly every song... yes, nearly every song. Lost, Groin, Nuts, Domodachi (feat. British female rapper Little Simz), etc. A masterpiece of sonic experimentation, freedom of speech at its peak, rap, indie, jazz, fusion, folk... everything in a tidy little package of over-achieving genius. Please excuse my enthusiasm, this album deserves so much credit... Thank you ❤
❣It’s Jimin’s voice doing the intro. Also Jimin & Loco sing live, aside from using mics, even wearing ear-ins. The “backup band” consists of legendary, genius producer Pdogg, who worked with BTS since beginning as producer & songwriter, also producers GHSTLOOP and EVAN, all 3 also worked alongside with Jimin, who also wrote the lyrics, composed, & helped produce his first solo album, 2023’s FACE, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart, as well as for MUSE his 2nd album that will be released July 19 KST, July 18 in other time zones. During the production documentary for FACE, there was even a fun quiz segment where all 4 named themselves Smeraldo Garden Marching Band, which at the time, no one had any idea other then it was just for fun! 🙏😅🤣😍
It is inspired by Beatles Sargent Pepper. In the albun Face, it was dark, because Jimin talked about his strugles during the pandemic. This new album Muse is about how Jimin gets his Inspiration. Kisses from a 56 years young Army from Brazil.
✨JIMIN's "Smeraldo Garden Marching Band" (ft. Loco) reached #1 on iTunes in 100 countries, very first day, then went up to 112, following day, becoming the FASTEST Song to reach this milestone in 2024.

It's a testament to Jimin's immense popularity and the global appeal of his music. 🙏👍❤🔥😍🎉🎊 JIMIN JIMIN #SGMB_Jimin #Jimin_MUSE #SmeraldoGardenMarchingBand CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN 👏👏👏👏
Congratulation Jimin! Jimin became the fastest act in 2024 to have a song reach no. 1 on US itunes. This song is now no. 1 in 110 countries and had the biggest debut on Spotify. Keep streaming everywhere Army fighting!
Oh, finally, we are back with BTS. I'm so excited. Thanks for reacting to our angel, Jimin. Sorry for repeating my requests, but you have missed jhope and RM's recent releases. We'd appreciate it if you could react to them. Thank you, Knox. You are the best!
yesss! i keep checking for his reactions for both of these and was afraid i was just missing them! Please react to HOTS and RPWP but Hobi & RM respectively. You won't be disappointed!
Jimin I'm here for you 🫶 You left us in happiness again with your bright smile, positive aura, your beauty. They say, the heat always reflected on the face. It's about you, Jimin. You're the pure soul. On top of that your moves are always 🔥Love you endlessly.
❣️Jimin’s “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band”, is basically an ever so uplifting, filled with joy & happiness, love song, mainly for army who he references numerous times, like when mentioning “it started on June 12”, which was the actual debut of BTS where they met army for first time during a performance showcase. BTS official debut performance was next day on June 13. Also in the dance, the choreography, including the one for the dance challenge on tiktok, Jimin is even doing in sign language, the hand signs, for I love you, while dancing, ❤️ 👍🙏🥰☺️ The song also is in reference, an homage to the Beatles, as well as Beatles album Sgt Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band, which Jimin used as inspiration, even singing lyrics “I want to hold your hand”! An excellent clue already happened in the vid: “A Day with Jimin in NYC by vogue, (perhaps you might want to watch it), which was basically a behind the scene, filmed during the time Jimin debuted “Like Crazy” on Jimmy Fallon show last yr. same day his album FACE dropped. It showed Jimin, before going to a dance practice, rehearsing Like Crazy for Fallon tonight show, going to a record store, along with producer Pdogg, who worked along side of Jimin throughout both albums FACE & MUSE. where Jimin pulled out that very record by the Beatles Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club album, even holding it up. It seemed sort of unexpected? Now I wonder if it was planted there? Who knew at the time that it was a reference, a hint for telling just how much of an influence it had toward creating this song & MV. 👍🙏❤️🔥🔥😍💫✨
The back story of the, “Smeraldo flower,” in the fictional Bangtan Universe goes… On Sep 3, 2019 - He named the flower “smeraldo” after the “city of smeraldo” and decided its meaning as “the truth that couldn't be told,” based on the legend. Thus in this song Jimin say, “All the things we couldn't say before And your hidden feelings too I'll tell you everything now (Just for you) Don't you worry anymore Since we’re together now Let's be a little more honest (Let's go)” *Regarding the significance of June 12, it was the release date of BTS debut song, “No MoreDream.”
I’m so excited for muse to drop. Yes as said we all went through jimins darkest time during face. Wanting him to heal and find himself. Muse is an album that he wanted to do allow fans to know he has healed. He’s doing well. He’s found happiness. He says let’s be honest. Jimin wants us to know he no longer wants to hide behind the mask 😷 n the truth untold. Instead he wants to show who he is. Finding oneself and what inspires you are the themes of muse. I can’t help wonder what he will tell us in the song “who.” The main track.
First of all, I love the song in the intro. It HAS been a hot minute since you did some BTS! In the meantime, j-hope issued a new hip-hop album and RM another album, sonically experimental, a little jewel unanimously acclaimed by music critics. This song is the second one taken from Jimin's new forthcoming album. The Smeraldo is a fictional flower from the BTS storyline representing The Truth Untold, so you can see how it fits with the lyrics of the song. Funny little detail, the three producers (including legendary BTS producer Pdogg) doing a cameo at the beginning of the MV. And lastly, it's a live take, so credits to Jimin for the gorgeous vocals. Thank you Knox. You always come back to our boys one way or another, and put the time and effort. I hope you are doing okay
June 12 is the day they recorded their very first appearance for the public. It was shown on June 13, 2013. The very beginning of it all!💜💜💜💜 He is also doing sign language while dancing for the word Love. He loves Sargent Peppers Lonely Hearts Club album by the Beatles. He collects old vinyl records.the end his hand is giving the sign language for Joy.
Smeraldo Garden Marching Band' takes key elements from the iconic album 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band', by The Beatles from 1967, combining the essence of British music from the 60s with the modern style of K-pop.
I just realized butterfly was mentioned in set me free pt 2 and that’s how it ties together because he finally feels free now to say what he wants and do what he wants. Its such a fun fan song 💜
"Трек «Smeraldo Garden Marching Band (feat. Loco)» был вдохновлен альбомом The Beatles 1967 года Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band " - журнал "Rolling Stone"
Always appreciate Jimin’s ability to masterfully combine interesting instrumentation w/ Hip Hop, Ballad style vocals, and Rap, all wrapped by super catchy hooks and melodies. ❤️ how his lyrics are deceptively simple but have 2-3 underlying meanings - have to listen to his music w/ both ears and brains. For instance - “SGMB reveals a story about the world where all the hidden feelings of the listener are accepted and embraced. Smeraldo flowers signify “the truth that one couldn’t say out loud.” Song urges listeners to embrace their truth because in ‘Smeraldo Garden,’ the marching band embraces everyone’s authenticity and feelings.” (Also ties into BTS’s song “The Truth Untold”.) Some reactors have acted like this is just some goofy summer song, disappointed he didn’t do something like Set Me Free Pt. 2. I think it’s great he’s unafraid to share another side and give us pure joy! He does what he wants despite industry expectations (like singing live in a MV)… can totally see The Beatles’ “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Heart Band” influence. Also, interesting note on the Smeraldo flower: Jimin collaborated with producers Pdogg, Ghstloop, and Evan, who contributed to his solo album, Face. During its prod, the group casually began calling themselves the Smeraldo Garden Marching Band, the playful title eventually becoming a reality.
June 12, 2013, was their pre-debut showcase, and the first day they met ARMY. This is a song for ARMY's. Smeralso Garden Marching Band is what JIMIN's production team named themselves. PDOGG, GHSTLOOP, and EVAN. (also part of BTS's production team).
Thank you for your reaction to SGMB. I love this happy song. It makes me smile. FYI, the Smeraldo is a fictional blue and white flower that BTS created. This flower was introduced to the world on 9 August 2017 when Jin tweeted a photo of it, around about a month before the first Love Yourself album (Love Yourself 承 'Her') was released. Smeraldo is a flower that has the meaning of heartache and troubled circumstances. This situation can be known in the language of flowers too. (T/N: in the symbolic meaning of flowers). In Italian it is “non potevo dire la verità,” or “truth untold” in Korean. On June 12, 2013, BTS released their debut single album 2 Cool 4 Skool, along with the lead single "No More Dream", neither of which sold particularly well at the time. And this MV was indeed recorded live.
It is intriguing that you mentioned the carnival sound in the intro because this takes me back to Jimins first solo album where in his first track Face Off, introduces a circus sound but with an eerie/ominous feel but in his second album, introduces the opposite - cheerful and fun with excitement. There are also bits of connection (mostly in contrast) between set me free pt2 (a pre release in FACE) and SGMB (the pre release for this 2nd album MUSE). I cant wait to see and hear more from this upcoming album and see how the story unfolds as Jimin is such a strong, multidimensional and captivating story teller. I really enjoyed this reaction. Thank you . All the best to your work too!
Yes that’s the date they first performed! Also untold truth the Smeraldo flower is a mystic flower in the Bangtan universe. Everything always has a deeper meaning in their songs 💜
They are singing and rapping live while filming. Notice the in ears? Please react to RM’s song Groin from his album Right place, Wrong Person. The whole album is amazing!
June 12 th was actually their showcase where they performed the title track and whatever b side track is promoted alongside it. It was mostly press and I think some fans.They officially debuted on June 13th 2013.
I love how you summarized it that he is finding himself in regards to music. I’m loving how he’s doing different things. So proud of him, so proud of all of them how much they’ve grown as people and artists. Thanks for the great reaction!
I went through other videos double checking RPWP’s reaction in case I missed it but there really isn’t any yet, I am curious too of how Knox would react to RM’s new album coz it def needs to be listened to and not just once coz it’s too crazy and different to listen to just once.
Throw back to the Beatles’ album cover and sound of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, which launched the Beatles’ Chapter 2. They reinvented themselves. Jimin sings, “I want to hold your hand,” an early Beatles song. Jimin loves the Beatles and in a previous video with PDogg, he was buying this Beatles album. I wonder if Muse will give more Beatles’ references. If so, Senior ARMY will be on top of it.
The Smeraldo flower is a fictitious flower from their song "The Truth Untold" and plays a role in their Bangtan Universe storyline. After his album FACE was released, they released a video of Jimin, Pdogg, Ghostloop, and Evan (main producers on the album) doing a kind of quiz show and they jokingly called themselves the "Smeraldo Garden Marching Band". The three people behind Jimin as the band are the same producers. :) He also said in the behind the scenes making of FACE that they used The Beatles, "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" as inspiration, which now makes complete sense. He and Loco sang live in this MV. :)
Smeraldo is a flower in the BTS universe. It is the center of the story in the song "The Truth Untold" . I don't know if you've listened to that song. It's beautiful but very sad. That's probably the reason why, in this song, Jimin says they can be truthful and say everything they couldn't say before. The guys in the band here, are his producers and team.
According to billboard article: ✨BTS‘ Jimin revealed the full track list for his upcoming second solo album, MUSE. Jimin’s quite successful first album FACE, still charting worldwide! The seven-song LP due out on July 19 KST (July 18 in other time zones), will feature the intro song “Rebirth,” as well as “Interlude : Showtime,” the pre-release song “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band” (featuring Loco), “Slow Dance” (featuring Sofia Carson), as well as “Be Mine,” “Who”, (single can now be purchased as presale aside from 2 versions MUSE album), and “Closer Than This” (which dropped in December.) Jimin, 28, wrote six of the songs, according to a release, composed, also finally listed as one of the producers for most of his songs, (though shown in Jimin’s documentary his involvement in producing all his songs), which also noted that the announcement from BIGHIT Music featured a vintage feel via images of old-school cassette tapes representing each song, with an overarching theme of “love” connecting all the tracks. The hip-hop/R&B-leaning focus song, “Who,” was produced by Grammy-nominated singer/producer Jon Bellion, along with Pete Nappi, Tenroc, Pdgogg and GHSTLOOP, with a vibe described as “intense bounce and guitar sound.” In addition, the pre-release song “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band” draws inspiration from marching bands, “blending hip-hop elements with the big band sound characterized by a large-scale orchestra, creating an upbeat, lively rhythm and dynamic atmosphere thanks to an assist from South Korean rapper Loco.” Other contributors to the album include Tommy Brown (Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber), as well as producers Pdogg, GHSTLOOP and EVAN, who also worked on Jimin’s first solo album, 2023’s FACE, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart. Jimin’s official solo debut came with the 2018 single “Promise.” Five years later, he became the first South Korean soloist to reach No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Like Crazy,” followed by FACE‘s “Set Me Free, Pt. 2” reaching No. 30 on the chart. Jimin is still in the midst of his 18-month mandatory South Korean military service, which he began in December; bandmate Jin recently became the first member of BTS to finish his military service.🙏👍❤🔥🔥🐥😍💥🌟💫✨
Smeraldo is a fictional flower that links to "The Truth Untold" by BTS. That song was about all the things that couldn't be said while this song is about being more honest and speaking all the previously unspoken truths. It is so meaningful to ARMY.
I believe Jimin was inspired by the Beatles Seargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It is a very unusual song, but Jimin likescto try out lots of ideas. I surprised myself by liking it even though I usually shy away from sentimental songs.
What should I even start about thissong and mv, well to begin with its such a sweet and happy song that just reminds me of jimin and his personality amity qlso o was smiling thru out the entire thing qnd I was even crying ( like when something makes you very very happy and you can't help but cry this I'd how the song made me feel)
ABOUT SMERALDO FLOWER & BTS The first story introduces the florist “Testesso” (Italian for “yourself”) who opens the blog to write about the smeraldo flower and playing cards (smeraldo also means “emerald” in Italian). He mentions that he is opening a flower shop that will specialize in smeraldo flowers. He went to the U.S. to attend a lecture on these special flowers, but missed the lecture due to getting the date wrong. Instead, he attended a lecture about playing cards and in doing so learned about the smeraldo flower. He provides a photo of the flower and notes that the “flower’s language” is “non potevo dire la verità” which is Italian for “the truth that couldn’t be told.”* Of course, this will sound familiar to fans, as 전하지 못한 진심 (The Truth Untold) later came out on Love Yourself: TEAR. In the second story, the florist says he plans to open his smeraldo shop in Korea in September 2017 (which is when BTS’s HER album released). His motivation for doing so is to bring happiness to people via flowers. He posts a photo of his delivery truck and the renovations happening inside his flower shop. Both the delivery truck and the renovated flower shop later appear in the HYYH Notes. In the third story, the florist says the smeraldo flower is “the flower of legend” and describes how it was discovered. He notes that in 2013, a friend he met at the playing cards event five years prior called him to tell him someone had discovered smeraldos in real life. He shares a screenshot of an Instagram post from June 12, 2013 (the date of BTS’s debut). The Instagram user is “amare_0” and is supposedly a traveler who found the flowers growing in northern Italy (“amare” means “love” in Italian, so if we combine this username with the florist’s name, we get “love yourself”). The florist writes that historians and florists claimed the flowers were smeraldos, and that they were growing in “the city of Smeraldo,” which had been a village in medieval times. After the Black Death, the village ceased to exist and the location became a forest. He ends the post by saying that the flower became a sensation and many other places tried to grow their own smeraldos, but had no success. In the fourth story, the florist relates the legend behind the smeraldo flower. He says that in the “city of Smeraldo” in northern Italy in the 15-16th century, a man with a grotesque appearance lived in a small castle. Supposedly, this man was born from a powerful duke and a gardener, and since he was not a legitimate child, he was sent away for his safety. The man lived in the castle alone and hated everyone. He grew flowers in his garden, and one day, a girl stole some. The man was angry and watched his garden to catch the girl. Eventually, he pretended to fall asleep so he could follow her after she stole the flowers. He learned that she was very poor and was selling the flowers for a living. The man wanted to help the girl grow her own flowers, but he worried she would be scared of him due to his appearance. So, he resigned himself to growing more flowers for her. He wanted to make a flower that she could sell for a higher price, so he worked to create a flower never seen before. After he succeeded, he placed the flowers in his garden. The girl never showed up again, and the man later learns of her death. The florist notes he’s not sure if this is just a myth or not and wonders what would have happened if the man had the courage to show his face to the girl, revealing the truth. The florist also relates the smeraldo story to his own story; he says he had a crush on his friend from the playing card event and they decided to go see the smeraldo flowers together in Italy, but now he now has a wound that time cannot heal. Of interest is the name of the “city of Smeraldo” which is listed as “La città di Smeraldo” in Italian, which correlates to the Italian title of The Wizard of Oz (La città di Smeraldo di Oz, or The Emerald City of Oz). In the fifth story, the florist links the smeraldo to playing cards. He discusses William Ashbless, an Italian noble and poet who loved playing cards. Ashbless discovered the smeraldo flowers in a rural village near the ruins of a castle. He asked around about the flower and heard the legend of the man and the poor girl. He named the flower “smeraldo” after the “city of smeraldo” and decided its meaning as “the truth that couldn’t be told,” based on the legend. He created “the flower card” and added it to his playing card decks, declaring the upright meaning of the card was “fruition” and “bloom” and the reverse meaning was “fall,” “end,” and “new start.” The florist includes a photo of the flower card, as depicted in a person’s hand. The florist notes that Ashbless is unknown, as are his cards and the smeraldo flower, because of power struggles between his family and other nobles, effectively erasing him from history. In reality, William Ashbless is actually a fictional poet created by James Blaylock and Tim Powers in the 1970s. In the sixth story, the florist talks about a painting titled Madame Lenormand on the Salon by French artist Jean-Francois Rolland. Lenormand was a French astrologer who performed tarot readings for noblewomen and eventually became an astrologer for Empress Josephine (Napoleon’s wife). The florist notes that there are many paintings of this woman with cards, and the On the Salon painting showed her holding “the flower” card created by Ashbless. The florist writes that this particular painting was destroyed in a fire, and only the part of the painting that shows the hand holding the flower card was restored, thus making that the only trace of the Ashbless smeraldo card. While Ashbless is fictional, Madame Lenormand was really a fortune teller during the Napoleonic era. From what I can find, Madame Lenormand actually did advise Josephine before she was an Empress. The On the Salon painting does not exist, and the artist name appears to be fake as well. In the seventh story, the florist recounts the day he was supposed to leave for Italy with his friend from the playing card event. He saw her arrive at the airport with a cool-looking guy and immediately became insecure, hiding himself. His friend called him, but he didn’t pick up. He gets on the plane and hopes that she’ll come to search for him, but no one comes. In Italy, he goes to see the smeraldo flowers on his own. At night, he hears something outside his window that sounds like a knocking sound, even though he’s on the second floor. He doesn’t look outside. The next day, his friend’s brother calls to let him know that his friend died while rushing after someone at the airport and getting in an accident. He also learns that his flower shop for smeraldos in Korea has been approved. He believes fate ties him to the smeraldos, and he believes that his friend told him “the truth that couldn’t be told” before leaving this world. *Note: This translation is from what’s written in the original Korean, but the Italian phrase is more correctly “I couldn’t tell the truth/I’m unable to tell the truth.” Thank you to @giftogbeide21 on Twitter for the Italian correction! In the original eighth story, we finally get some concrete ties to BTS’s Bangtan Universe. The florist notes that he went to the construction site of the shop and a young man peeked in at the store and then came in. This young man was looking for smeraldos, and he wanted to place an order. The florist told him he could have the flowers ready by the end of August, and the young man agreed. The florist notes he feels like he has met the young man before. We see a photo of the written order for one bouquet of smeraldo flowers, and the name is “Kim Seokjin.” The paper also has Seokjin’s real signature on it. The florist mentions that he asked the young man why the flowers needed to be smeraldo, and the young man responded “because I want to be a good person.” The florist takes a note from Seokjin to deliver with the flowers, but he doesn’t reveal the content of the note. Later, this scene is written into the HYYH Notes, where Seokjin goes in to request the flowers in order to “be a good person,” likely meaning to be a good person to the one the flowers are for. The florist notes this as well and wonders what would have happened if he had revealed his sincere feelings for his own friend. He says that’s one reason for his work with smeraldos, to help others deliver their true feelings. In the original ninth story, the florist relates in a short post that he got his first batch of smeraldos through customs and would be able to deliver his first order that day. The entry is dated August 30, 2017, and in the HYYH Notes, there are several entries for Seokjin on this date, where we find out what happens with this delivery. www.thebtseffect.com/blog/smeraldo-story
I like how uplifting, fun and exciting the song is. Jimin want to show us how the silly-honest side him. Also, bro why are you not reacting to RPWP by RM? It’s a dope ass album
Love Ji Min song so much💜💜 the changes in the melodies so subtle, a joyous upbeat song for us...a brilliant happy ending to the song "The Truth Untold" and the start of something new also...."Right Place Wrong Person" Your gonna love RM's album released last month ...be prepared to be bedazzled 😂 can't wait to watch you with all the perplexed facial expressions 💜💜🇬🇧🇬🇧
Finally... The world is back.... Thanks Knox for reacting to this. But, please... PLEASE.... REACT TO RM's album RIGHT PLACE WRONG PERSON and J-hope's Hope on the street album. YOU GOTTA DO THAT PLEASE PLEASE.... Also, I know you're going through a hard time now, just wanna say, stay strong. You've been through a lot and I hope everything goes okay.
Smeraldo garden marching band is a nickname that jomin and his .writing/producers group ,pdogg, ghstloop and Evan, call Themselves. They are the backing trio on the clip Smeraldo Is the fictional flower from the truth untold and the BU… Pdogg Bought Sgt peppers for jimin’s and it was inspirational ( and note the callback To I wanna hold your hand) Btw it is actually a live clip 💜🇨🇦
This was not what I expected but I am so glad he did something so artistically different and fun! The more I listen to it, it is stuck in my head!!! 🙂 Love the instrument breakdown- I subscribed!
First, I loved your intro song, amazing. Thank you for this reaction. I appreciate that you appreciated this song from Jimin. It’s somewhat unique and unusual in the current musical landscape. I found it to be a happy joyful somewhat addictive song myself. I know others aren’t that into it, it is certainly different from his other music. But that’s part of why I like Jimin, particularly his solo work so far. It’s incredibly diverse and he hasn’t let doubters/haters prevent him from creating his art as he wanted it to be. He hasn’t taken the easy path, that’s for sure. He has a theme/story he is trying to tell for his albums and he delivered on it with FACE, it will be interesting to see what he does with the rest of MUSE.
💜💜💜💜💜💜 ARMYs know the history and meanings in the lyrics of particular songs from BTS. So learn the story behind the song Smeraldo. The Smeraldo flower, known as the legendary flower, is closely related to the creative universe of BTS. Appears in music and videos of groups including Bangtan (BU) and HYYH (Hwa Yong Yeon Hwa), also known as "The Most Beautiful Moment in Life". The theme of the song "Smeraldo Garden Marching Band" (feat. Loco) revolves around confession. Jimin took the motif from the fictional Smeraldo flower from the Bangtan universe, which means "the truth that could not be conveyed." Jimin wanted to express his immense love for ARMYs through this new song. BigHit Music said: "The theme of the lyrics is 'confession.' Jimin was inspired by the imaginary flower 'Smeraldo', which symbolizes 'a sincere heart that could not be transported', to create sweet lyrics professing love on behalf of those who cannot express their feelings. » The song “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band” (feat. Loco) is inspired by the album “Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' by English rock group "The Beatles" . The Memories associated with the fantastic Smeraldo flower. Jimin discussed the memories and stories related to the imaginary Smeraldo flower. The Smeraldo was linked with the song "The Truth Unfold" from the album "Love Yourself: TEAR".💜💜💜💜💜💜
Me encantó tu video reacción!!! Realmente hiciste un análisis del video y la canción, con comentarios que demuestran tu conocimiento en el tema de la música. Fue muy agradable escucharlo y verte. Muchas gracias.
Not something I would normally listen to, but really enjoyed that, thank you! I got instant Wes Anderson vibes from the visuals, I wonder if that was an inspiration in that regard?!
Thanks for the reaction to Jimins 🔥 song! I can’t wait for his new album MUSE on July 19! Also, did you know RM releases the album of the year a few months ago? I think you’d love it! It’s called RPWP. It’s been called AOY by so many ppl already! Would love to see your thoughts on it!
Strong Beatles Sgt Pepper influence ..he chose 3 musicians plus jimin 4 members just like the Beatles...he's also dressed like the beatles in that black suit n tie...so i guess the Beatles is one of his Muse
I'm happy to see you back! Still crossing my fingers and sending prayers to you and your family! I hope BTS can help you to take your mind off of hard stuff just for a little bit. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
What else should we react to? 🤔 Comment below! Also if you want to support the channel join the Patreon for more reactions & content 🤟www.patreon.com/knoxhill
Kali ma by lil darkie, he's fire 🔥
Pls react to Forever by Babymonster
Jhope's album Hope on the street and RM's album RIGHT PLACE WRONG PERSON. You are gonna be baffled [in a good way] by these masterpieces
I would really love it if you could react to some RM. He released an album without being able to promote it, since he's in the military.
His new album Right Place Wrong Person will blow your mind. Please take my word for it! There's an MV for nearly every song... yes, nearly every song.
Lost, Groin, Nuts, Domodachi (feat. British female rapper Little Simz), etc. A masterpiece of sonic experimentation, freedom of speech at its peak, rap, indie, jazz, fusion, folk... everything in a tidy little package of over-achieving genius.
Please excuse my enthusiasm, this album deserves so much credit...
Thank you ❤
Babymonster forever plz
❣It’s Jimin’s voice doing the intro. Also Jimin & Loco sing live, aside from using mics, even wearing ear-ins.

He was singing live and sounded amazing.
It is inspired by Beatles Sargent Pepper. In the albun Face, it was dark, because Jimin talked about his strugles during the pandemic.
This new album Muse is about how Jimin gets his Inspiration.
Kisses from a 56 years young Army from Brazil.
They’re singing live by the way. Such a positive and energetic song.

Oh, finally, we are back with BTS. I'm so excited. Thanks for reacting to our angel, Jimin.
Sorry for repeating my requests, but you have missed jhope and RM's recent releases. We'd appreciate it if you could react to them.
Thank you, Knox. You are the best!
+1 for rm and Jhope
Sii, RM y Jhope han sacado nueva música ❤
I'm sure he will love both albums!! 😊
@@silviamunoz6863 I hope so! That'd be great.
yesss! i keep checking for his reactions for both of these and was afraid i was just missing them! Please react to HOTS and RPWP but Hobi & RM respectively. You won't be disappointed!
Great reaction,love the song,love Jimin and his versatility as a singer and dancer,real genius 💜
Jimin I'm here for you 🫶 You left us in happiness again with your bright smile, positive aura, your beauty. They say, the heat always reflected on the face. It's about you, Jimin. You're the pure soul. On top of that your moves are always 🔥Love you endlessly.
❣️Jimin’s “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band”, is basically an ever so uplifting, filled with joy & happiness, love song, mainly for army who he references numerous times, like when mentioning “it started on June 12”, which was the actual debut of BTS where they met army for first time during a performance showcase. BTS official debut performance was next day on June 13. Also in the dance, the choreography, including the one for the dance challenge on tiktok, Jimin is even doing in sign language, the hand signs, for I love you, while dancing, ❤️ 👍🙏🥰☺️
The song also is in reference, an homage to the Beatles, as well as Beatles album Sgt Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band, which Jimin used as inspiration, even singing lyrics “I want to hold your hand”! An excellent clue already happened in the vid: “A Day with Jimin in NYC by vogue, (perhaps you might want to watch it), which was basically a behind the scene, filmed during the time Jimin debuted “Like Crazy” on Jimmy Fallon show last yr. same day his album FACE dropped. It showed Jimin, before going to a dance practice, rehearsing Like Crazy for Fallon tonight show, going to a record store, along with producer Pdogg, who worked along side of Jimin throughout both albums FACE & MUSE. where Jimin pulled out that very record by the Beatles Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club album, even holding it up. It seemed sort of unexpected? Now I wonder if it was planted there? Who knew at the time that it was a reference, a hint for telling just how much of an influence it had toward creating this song & MV. 👍🙏❤️🔥🔥😍💫✨
Excellent comment! 😀
thank you for this!
The back story of the, “Smeraldo flower,” in the fictional Bangtan Universe goes… On Sep 3, 2019 - He named the flower “smeraldo” after the “city of smeraldo” and decided its meaning as “the truth that couldn't be told,” based on the legend. Thus in this song Jimin say,
“All the things we couldn't say before
And your hidden feelings too
I'll tell you everything now (Just for you)
Don't you worry anymore
Since we’re together now
Let's be a little more honest (Let's go)”
*Regarding the significance of June 12, it was the release date of BTS debut song, “No MoreDream.”
I’m so excited for muse to drop. Yes as said we all went through jimins darkest time during face. Wanting him to heal and find himself. Muse is an album that he wanted to do allow fans to know he has healed. He’s doing well. He’s found happiness. He says let’s be honest. Jimin wants us to know he no longer wants to hide behind the mask 😷 n the truth untold. Instead he wants to show who he is. Finding oneself and what inspires you are the themes of muse. I can’t help wonder what he will tell us in the song “who.” The main track.
First of all, I love the song in the intro.
It HAS been a hot minute since you did some BTS!
In the meantime, j-hope issued a new hip-hop album and RM another album, sonically experimental, a little jewel unanimously acclaimed by music critics.
This song is the second one taken from Jimin's new forthcoming album.
The Smeraldo is a fictional flower from the BTS storyline representing The Truth Untold, so you can see how it fits with the lyrics of the song.
Funny little detail, the three producers (including legendary BTS producer Pdogg) doing a cameo at the beginning of the MV.
And lastly, it's a live take, so credits to Jimin for the gorgeous vocals.
Thank you Knox. You always come back to our boys one way or another, and put the time and effort. I hope you are doing okay
June 12 is the day they recorded their very first appearance for the public. It was shown on June 13, 2013. The very beginning of it all!💜💜💜💜 He is also doing sign language while dancing for the word Love. He loves Sargent Peppers Lonely Hearts Club album by the Beatles. He collects old vinyl records.the end his hand is giving the sign language for Joy.
Felicitări jimin un înger frumos foc perfect talentat cu voce de înger dansator profesionist ❤️🫰❤️🫰❤️🫰❤️🫰❤️🫰❤️
Jimin ❤️
Smeraldo Garden Marching Band' takes key elements from the iconic album 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band', by The Beatles from 1967, combining the essence of British music from the 60s with the modern style of K-pop.
I just realized butterfly was mentioned in set me free pt 2 and that’s how it ties together because he finally feels free now to say what he wants and do what he wants. Its such a fun fan song 💜
Wow, that makes sense. Thx.
happy vibe that we didin't even realize we‘ve missed for so long
He used sign language a few times. The hand shake with the bow---means joyful
This whole thing is live it's definitely not a music video it's a track video.
"Трек «Smeraldo Garden Marching Band (feat. Loco)» был вдохновлен альбомом The Beatles 1967 года Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band " - журнал "Rolling Stone"
Ahhh! My bias is back. Aww yiss.
Smeraldo is the fictional flower in the BTS Universe storyline. There is some development/continuation to the theme that runs in the storyline, here.
Jimin was inspired by the Beatles Sargent pepper. He does the introduction.
This is a track and yes he is singing live.
Thanks @KnoxHill for the thoughtful reaction! Love your insights and open mindedness.
Always appreciate Jimin’s ability to masterfully combine interesting instrumentation w/ Hip Hop, Ballad style vocals, and Rap, all wrapped by super catchy hooks and melodies. ❤️ how his lyrics are deceptively simple but have 2-3 underlying meanings - have to listen to his music w/ both ears and brains. For instance - “SGMB reveals a story about the world where all the hidden feelings of the listener are accepted and embraced. Smeraldo flowers signify “the truth that one couldn’t say out loud.” Song urges listeners to embrace their truth because in ‘Smeraldo Garden,’ the marching band embraces everyone’s authenticity and feelings.” (Also ties into BTS’s song “The Truth Untold”.)
Some reactors have acted like this is just some goofy summer song, disappointed he didn’t do something like Set Me Free Pt. 2. I think it’s great he’s unafraid to share another side and give us pure joy! He does what he wants despite industry expectations (like singing live in a MV)… can totally see The Beatles’ “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Heart Band” influence.
Also, interesting note on the Smeraldo flower: Jimin collaborated with producers Pdogg, Ghstloop, and Evan, who contributed to his solo album, Face. During its prod, the group casually began calling themselves the Smeraldo Garden Marching Band, the playful title eventually becoming a reality.
Well-described Jimin's intentions and the situation.
Jimin’s second solo album will be out on 19th July, and it will include electric guitars! 🔥
I love SGMB too, is such a happy song ❤
That final hand movement is sign language for joy.🎉💜🌻
June 12, 2013, was their pre-debut showcase, and the first day they met ARMY. This is a song for ARMY's. Smeralso Garden Marching Band is what JIMIN's production team named themselves. PDOGG, GHSTLOOP, and EVAN. (also part of BTS's production team).
Thank you for your reaction to SGMB. I love this happy song. It makes me smile. FYI, the Smeraldo is a fictional blue and white flower that BTS created. This flower was introduced to the world on 9 August 2017 when Jin tweeted a photo of it, around about a month before the first Love Yourself album (Love Yourself 承 'Her') was released.
Smeraldo is a flower that has the meaning of heartache and troubled circumstances. This situation can be known in the language of flowers too. (T/N: in the symbolic meaning of flowers). In Italian it is “non potevo dire la verità,” or “truth untold” in Korean. On June 12, 2013, BTS released their debut single album 2 Cool 4 Skool, along with the lead single "No More Dream", neither of which sold particularly well at the time. And this MV was indeed recorded live.
It is intriguing that you mentioned the carnival sound in the intro because this takes me back to Jimins first solo album where in his first track Face Off, introduces a circus sound but with an eerie/ominous feel but in his second album, introduces the opposite - cheerful and fun with excitement. There are also bits of connection (mostly in contrast) between set me free pt2 (a pre release in FACE) and SGMB (the pre release for this 2nd album MUSE). I cant wait to see and hear more from this upcoming album and see how the story unfolds as Jimin is such a strong, multidimensional and captivating story teller. I really enjoyed this reaction. Thank you . All the best to your work too!
Congratulations ❤jimin
I hope you're hanging in there with more strength and grace every day, Knox. Much Love and well wishes for you and your family!
❤🩹💖🥰
I was waiting for this! Thank you ❤🥹
Yes that’s the date they first performed! Also untold truth the Smeraldo flower is a mystic flower in the Bangtan universe. Everything always has a deeper meaning in their songs 💜
They are singing and rapping live while filming. Notice the in ears?
Please react to RM’s song Groin from his album Right place, Wrong Person. The whole album is amazing!
June 12 th was actually their showcase where they performed the title track and whatever b side track is promoted alongside it. It was mostly press and I think some fans.They officially debuted on June 13th 2013.
THANK YOU for you reaction💜JIMIN has a heart of gold.
Waaa i was so surprised cause i was just binging your eminem bar breakdowns. didn't knownyou react to bts as well. Thank you! Jimin is everything ❤
I love how you summarized it that he is finding himself in regards to music. I’m loving how he’s doing different things. So proud of him, so proud of all of them how much they’ve grown as people and artists. Thanks for the great reaction!
Suprised youre doing a lot of kpop but havent done the new RM record, Right place wrong person.
Thankyou for this though, we love jimin !! ❤
I went through other videos double checking RPWP’s reaction in case I missed it but there really isn’t any yet, I am curious too of how Knox would react to RM’s new album coz it def needs to be listened to and not just once coz it’s too crazy and different to listen to just once.
@@malinnaya its a great album and im sure knox would love it i think the problem is not enough people are recommending it
Throw back to the Beatles’ album cover and sound of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, which launched the Beatles’ Chapter 2. They reinvented themselves. Jimin sings, “I want to hold your hand,” an early Beatles song. Jimin loves the Beatles and in a previous video with PDogg, he was buying this Beatles album. I wonder if Muse will give more Beatles’ references. If so, Senior ARMY will be on top of it.
The Smeraldo flower is a fictitious flower from their song "The Truth Untold" and plays a role in their Bangtan Universe storyline. After his album FACE was released, they released a video of Jimin, Pdogg, Ghostloop, and Evan (main producers on the album) doing a kind of quiz show and they jokingly called themselves the "Smeraldo Garden Marching Band". The three people behind Jimin as the band are the same producers. :) He also said in the behind the scenes making of FACE that they used The Beatles, "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" as inspiration, which now makes complete sense.
He and Loco sang live in this MV. :)
Our Angel Jimin! I love him so much! 💜
I LOVE THE SONG AND EVERYTHING IN IT! WELL DONE JIMIN AND LOCO AND ALL THE TEAM!
Smeraldo is a flower in the BTS universe. It is the center of the story in the song "The Truth Untold" . I don't know if you've listened to that song. It's beautiful but very sad. That's probably the reason why, in this song, Jimin says they can be truthful and say everything they couldn't say before. The guys in the band here, are his producers and team.
According to billboard article: ✨BTS‘ Jimin revealed the full track list for his upcoming second solo album, MUSE. Jimin’s quite successful first album FACE, still charting worldwide! The seven-song LP due out on July 19 KST (July 18 in other time zones), will feature the intro song “Rebirth,” as well as “Interlude : Showtime,” the pre-release song “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band” (featuring Loco), “Slow Dance” (featuring Sofia Carson), as well as “Be Mine,” “Who”, (single can now be purchased as presale aside from 2 versions MUSE album), and “Closer Than This” (which dropped in December.)
Jimin, 28, wrote six of the songs, according to a release, composed, also finally listed as one of the producers for most of his songs, (though shown in Jimin’s documentary his involvement in producing all his songs), which also noted that the announcement from BIGHIT Music featured a vintage feel via images of old-school cassette tapes representing each song, with an overarching theme of “love” connecting all the tracks.
The hip-hop/R&B-leaning focus song, “Who,” was produced by Grammy-nominated singer/producer Jon Bellion, along with Pete Nappi, Tenroc, Pdgogg and GHSTLOOP, with a vibe described as “intense bounce and guitar sound.” In addition, the pre-release song “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band” draws inspiration from marching bands, “blending hip-hop elements with the big band sound characterized by a large-scale orchestra, creating an upbeat, lively rhythm and dynamic atmosphere thanks to an assist from South Korean rapper Loco.”
Other contributors to the album include Tommy Brown (Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber), as well as producers Pdogg, GHSTLOOP and EVAN, who also worked on Jimin’s first solo album, 2023’s FACE, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart. Jimin’s official solo debut came with the 2018 single “Promise.” Five years later, he became the first South Korean soloist to reach No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Like Crazy,” followed by FACE‘s “Set Me Free, Pt. 2” reaching No. 30 on the chart.
Jimin is still in the midst of his 18-month mandatory South Korean military service, which he began in December; bandmate Jin recently became the first member of BTS to finish his military service.🙏👍❤🔥🔥🐥😍💥🌟💫✨
Thanks for all of those Precious info💜
Why copy this and send to all reactors
Great reaction!! Jimin is truly a genius
Sgt Pepper vibessss! And i swear thats Jimins voice distorted in the beginning bc it sounds like his American accent but nobody seemed to notice lol
Yup in one of the press releases it said that the track/mv is loosely inspired by Stg pepper by Beatles
When he sings ‘I love you babe’ he signs the letters L O V E in sign language 🥰💜
June 12th is the day he was announced as the last member of BTS, the group debuted on june 13th
Amo la hermosa y única voz de Jimin. Me captura totalmente.
Thank you for reacting to our gorgeous Jimin
Smeraldo is a fictional flower that links to "The Truth Untold" by BTS. That song was about all the things that couldn't be said while this song is about being more honest and speaking all the previously unspoken truths. It is so meaningful to ARMY.
Thank you. Yes, it's such a fun song, sweet song
Beautiful reaction! Love your thoughts! Thanks 💐
It was live💖💖💖
Yes ! Fun & free .....beautiful ❤ Thank you for your reaction x
I believe Jimin was inspired by the Beatles Seargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It is a very unusual song, but Jimin likescto try out lots of ideas. I surprised myself by liking it even though I usually shy away from sentimental songs.
What should I even start about thissong and mv, well to begin with its such a sweet and happy song that just reminds me of jimin and his personality amity qlso o was smiling thru out the entire thing qnd I was even crying ( like when something makes you very very happy and you can't help but cry this I'd how the song made me feel)
Did anyone notice the chicken at 7:40 that’s was so random but funny at the same time 😂
ABOUT SMERALDO FLOWER & BTS
The first story introduces the florist “Testesso” (Italian for “yourself”) who opens the blog to write about the smeraldo flower and playing cards (smeraldo also means “emerald” in Italian). He mentions that he is opening a flower shop that will specialize in smeraldo flowers. He went to the U.S. to attend a lecture on these special flowers, but missed the lecture due to getting the date wrong. Instead, he attended a lecture about playing cards and in doing so learned about the smeraldo flower. He provides a photo of the flower and notes that the “flower’s language” is “non potevo dire la verità” which is Italian for “the truth that couldn’t be told.”* Of course, this will sound familiar to fans, as 전하지 못한 진심 (The Truth Untold) later came out on Love Yourself: TEAR.
In the second story, the florist says he plans to open his smeraldo shop in Korea in September 2017 (which is when BTS’s HER album released). His motivation for doing so is to bring happiness to people via flowers. He posts a photo of his delivery truck and the renovations happening inside his flower shop. Both the delivery truck and the renovated flower shop later appear in the HYYH Notes.
In the third story, the florist says the smeraldo flower is “the flower of legend” and describes how it was discovered. He notes that in 2013, a friend he met at the playing cards event five years prior called him to tell him someone had discovered smeraldos in real life. He shares a screenshot of an Instagram post from June 12, 2013 (the date of BTS’s debut). The Instagram user is “amare_0” and is supposedly a traveler who found the flowers growing in northern Italy (“amare” means “love” in Italian, so if we combine this username with the florist’s name, we get “love yourself”). The florist writes that historians and florists claimed the flowers were smeraldos, and that they were growing in “the city of Smeraldo,” which had been a village in medieval times. After the Black Death, the village ceased to exist and the location became a forest. He ends the post by saying that the flower became a sensation and many other places tried to grow their own smeraldos, but had no success.
In the fourth story, the florist relates the legend behind the smeraldo flower. He says that in the “city of Smeraldo” in northern Italy in the 15-16th century, a man with a grotesque appearance lived in a small castle. Supposedly, this man was born from a powerful duke and a gardener, and since he was not a legitimate child, he was sent away for his safety. The man lived in the castle alone and hated everyone. He grew flowers in his garden, and one day, a girl stole some. The man was angry and watched his garden to catch the girl. Eventually, he pretended to fall asleep so he could follow her after she stole the flowers. He learned that she was very poor and was selling the flowers for a living. The man wanted to help the girl grow her own flowers, but he worried she would be scared of him due to his appearance. So, he resigned himself to growing more flowers for her. He wanted to make a flower that she could sell for a higher price, so he worked to create a flower never seen before. After he succeeded, he placed the flowers in his garden. The girl never showed up again, and the man later learns of her death. The florist notes he’s not sure if this is just a myth or not and wonders what would have happened if the man had the courage to show his face to the girl, revealing the truth. The florist also relates the smeraldo story to his own story; he says he had a crush on his friend from the playing card event and they decided to go see the smeraldo flowers together in Italy, but now he now has a wound that time cannot heal. Of interest is the name of the “city of Smeraldo” which is listed as “La città di Smeraldo” in Italian, which correlates to the Italian title of The Wizard of Oz (La città di Smeraldo di Oz, or The Emerald City of Oz).
In the fifth story, the florist links the smeraldo to playing cards. He discusses William Ashbless, an Italian noble and poet who loved playing cards. Ashbless discovered the smeraldo flowers in a rural village near the ruins of a castle. He asked around about the flower and heard the legend of the man and the poor girl. He named the flower “smeraldo” after the “city of smeraldo” and decided its meaning as “the truth that couldn’t be told,” based on the legend. He created “the flower card” and added it to his playing card decks, declaring the upright meaning of the card was “fruition” and “bloom” and the reverse meaning was “fall,” “end,” and “new start.” The florist includes a photo of the flower card, as depicted in a person’s hand. The florist notes that Ashbless is unknown, as are his cards and the smeraldo flower, because of power struggles between his family and other nobles, effectively erasing him from history. In reality, William Ashbless is actually a fictional poet created by James Blaylock and Tim Powers in the 1970s.
In the sixth story, the florist talks about a painting titled Madame Lenormand on the Salon by French artist Jean-Francois Rolland. Lenormand was a French astrologer who performed tarot readings for noblewomen and eventually became an astrologer for Empress Josephine (Napoleon’s wife). The florist notes that there are many paintings of this woman with cards, and the On the Salon painting showed her holding “the flower” card created by Ashbless. The florist writes that this particular painting was destroyed in a fire, and only the part of the painting that shows the hand holding the flower card was restored, thus making that the only trace of the Ashbless smeraldo card. While Ashbless is fictional, Madame Lenormand was really a fortune teller during the Napoleonic era. From what I can find, Madame Lenormand actually did advise Josephine before she was an Empress. The On the Salon painting does not exist, and the artist name appears to be fake as well.
In the seventh story, the florist recounts the day he was supposed to leave for Italy with his friend from the playing card event. He saw her arrive at the airport with a cool-looking guy and immediately became insecure, hiding himself. His friend called him, but he didn’t pick up. He gets on the plane and hopes that she’ll come to search for him, but no one comes. In Italy, he goes to see the smeraldo flowers on his own. At night, he hears something outside his window that sounds like a knocking sound, even though he’s on the second floor. He doesn’t look outside. The next day, his friend’s brother calls to let him know that his friend died while rushing after someone at the airport and getting in an accident. He also learns that his flower shop for smeraldos in Korea has been approved. He believes fate ties him to the smeraldos, and he believes that his friend told him “the truth that couldn’t be told” before leaving this world.
*Note: This translation is from what’s written in the original Korean, but the Italian phrase is more correctly “I couldn’t tell the truth/I’m unable to tell the truth.” Thank you to @giftogbeide21 on Twitter for the Italian correction!
In the original eighth story, we finally get some concrete ties to BTS’s Bangtan Universe. The florist notes that he went to the construction site of the shop and a young man peeked in at the store and then came in. This young man was looking for smeraldos, and he wanted to place an order. The florist told him he could have the flowers ready by the end of August, and the young man agreed. The florist notes he feels like he has met the young man before. We see a photo of the written order for one bouquet of smeraldo flowers, and the name is “Kim Seokjin.” The paper also has Seokjin’s real signature on it. The florist mentions that he asked the young man why the flowers needed to be smeraldo, and the young man responded “because I want to be a good person.” The florist takes a note from Seokjin to deliver with the flowers, but he doesn’t reveal the content of the note. Later, this scene is written into the HYYH Notes, where Seokjin goes in to request the flowers in order to “be a good person,” likely meaning to be a good person to the one the flowers are for. The florist notes this as well and wonders what would have happened if he had revealed his sincere feelings for his own friend. He says that’s one reason for his work with smeraldos, to help others deliver their true feelings.
In the original ninth story, the florist relates in a short post that he got his first batch of smeraldos through customs and would be able to deliver his first order that day. The entry is dated August 30, 2017, and in the HYYH Notes, there are several entries for Seokjin on this date, where we find out what happens with this delivery.

June 12 was when BTS first met ARMY and they debuted on the next day(June 13th).
He finger signs L.O.V.E when he sings "I love you babe"
Thank you for this video🥹 This song always makes my day better and i can't wait for the next masterpiece jimin will give us on july 19!❤
I like how uplifting, fun and exciting the song is. Jimin want to show us how the silly-honest side him. Also, bro why are you not reacting to RPWP by RM? It’s a dope ass album
Love Ji Min song so much💜💜 the changes in the melodies so subtle, a joyous upbeat song for us...a brilliant happy ending to the song "The Truth Untold" and the start of something new also...."Right Place Wrong Person" Your gonna love RM's album released last month ...be prepared to be bedazzled 😂 can't wait to watch you with all the perplexed facial expressions 💜💜🇬🇧🇬🇧
Finally... The world is back.... Thanks Knox for reacting to this. But, please... PLEASE.... REACT TO RM's album RIGHT PLACE WRONG PERSON and J-hope's Hope on the street album. YOU GOTTA DO THAT PLEASE PLEASE....
Also, I know you're going through a hard time now, just wanna say, stay strong. You've been through a lot and I hope everything goes okay.
Hey man I love your videos, I hope your mother's doing well.
Also thank you for making videos for us.
We Love you ❤
Jimin 👏👏👏🇧🇷
JIMIN !! He is PHENOMENAL !!!
Smeraldo garden marching band is a nickname that jomin and his .writing/producers group ,pdogg, ghstloop and Evan, call Themselves. They are the backing trio on the clip
Smeraldo
Is the fictional flower from the truth untold and the BU…
Pdogg
Bought Sgt peppers for jimin’s and it was inspirational ( and note the callback
To I wanna hold your hand)
Btw it is actually a live clip
💜🇨🇦
also his suit is Beatles inspired and the dazzling sky is a reference to Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
Happy vibes 💛💜🫂🫶🏻love jimin
you are just a few who knows music well. thank you for this 😊
Such a feel good song
This was not what I expected but I am so glad he did something so artistically different and fun! The more I listen to it, it is stuck in my head!!! 🙂 Love the instrument breakdown- I subscribed!
지민은 창의적이고 새로운 시도를 많이 합니다. 이곡은 선공개고 타이틀곡은 다른 분위기 일거라서 더욱 기대됩니다. 오랜만에 행복의 노래를 들을수 있어서 기뻤어요
Jimin sang this song live !!
First, I loved your intro song, amazing. Thank you for this reaction. I appreciate that you appreciated this song from Jimin. It’s somewhat unique and unusual in the current musical landscape. I found it to be a happy joyful somewhat addictive song myself. I know others aren’t that into it, it is certainly different from his other music. But that’s part of why I like Jimin, particularly his solo work so far. It’s incredibly diverse and he hasn’t let doubters/haters prevent him from creating his art as he wanted it to be. He hasn’t taken the easy path, that’s for sure. He has a theme/story he is trying to tell for his albums and he delivered on it with FACE, it will be interesting to see what he does with the rest of MUSE.
I absolutely love this song 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
It is live……..they have in ears in and instead of this being an MV……it’s a live performance track in the form of an MV🌼🤗🌞
💜💜💜💜💜💜 ARMYs know the history and meanings in the lyrics of particular songs from BTS.
So learn the story behind the song Smeraldo.
The Smeraldo flower, known as the legendary flower, is closely related to the creative universe of BTS. Appears in music and videos of groups including Bangtan (BU) and HYYH (Hwa Yong Yeon Hwa), also known as "The Most Beautiful Moment in Life".
The theme of the song "Smeraldo Garden Marching Band" (feat. Loco) revolves around confession. Jimin took the motif from the fictional Smeraldo flower from the Bangtan universe, which means "the truth that could not be conveyed." Jimin wanted to express his immense love for ARMYs through this new song. BigHit Music said: "The theme of the lyrics is 'confession.' Jimin was inspired by the imaginary flower 'Smeraldo', which symbolizes 'a sincere heart that could not be transported', to create sweet lyrics professing love on behalf of those who cannot express their feelings. »
The song “Smeraldo Garden Marching Band” (feat. Loco) is inspired by the album “Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' by English rock group
"The Beatles" .
The Memories associated with the fantastic Smeraldo flower. Jimin discussed the memories and stories related to the imaginary Smeraldo flower. The Smeraldo was linked with the song "The Truth Unfold" from the album "Love Yourself: TEAR".💜💜💜💜💜💜
This reminds me a lot of The Magical Mystery Tour and Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.
Such a great song
Love the song so much
Definitely a nod to Wes Anderson style filmmaking--and that unique Jimin voice that is like no one else.
Me encantó tu video reacción!!! Realmente hiciste un análisis del video y la canción, con comentarios que demuestran tu conocimiento en el tema de la música. Fue muy agradable escucharlo y verte. Muchas gracias.
They were singing live
JIMIN !!! He is AWESOME !!!
Not something I would normally listen to, but really enjoyed that, thank you! I got instant Wes Anderson vibes from the visuals, I wonder if that was an inspiration in that regard?!
Thanks for the reaction to Jimins 🔥 song! I can’t wait for his new album MUSE on July 19!
Also, did you know RM releases the album of the year a few months ago? I think you’d love it! It’s called RPWP. It’s been called AOY by so many ppl already! Would love to see your thoughts on it!
This is a live performance by the way.
Strong Beatles Sgt Pepper influence ..he chose 3 musicians plus jimin 4 members just like the Beatles...he's also dressed like the beatles in that black suit n tie...so i guess the Beatles is one of his Muse
❤
I'm happy to see you back! Still crossing my fingers and sending prayers to you and your family!
I hope BTS can help you to take your mind off of hard stuff just for a little bit.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Please react to "Right Place, Wrong Person" by RM and "Hope on the Street" by J-hope 🙏💜
Please react "WHO" by Jimin
