Daechwita is a military music but most known for when the king's entourage moved through the public in ancient times. The music is played here is not Daechwita but a rap beat embellished by some of the traditional instruments of Daechwita. Suga in his two roles, most importantly that of lower class Suga, is saying it loud announcing he is the king.
@@himaririku9254 Suga is referring to rap specifically. The way his underground sunbaes savaged him for joining the Idol platform, inferring he no longer had hip-hop bona fides, ate at Suga's craw. He spent years trying to be regarded as a rap king by being aggressive with his skills and using his rap to put down the sunbaes for being overly concerned with him. That is the Chosin Dynasty mad king he portrays here. The other is a commoner which for Suga is what he aspires to be. Suga feels he has proven enough and just wants to be grounded. If the people deem him king he can share as a commoner king with people without always worrying if he is the best. So he must kill his old self off. As he says in this year's Yet to Come I am a bit bothered by being called the best. I just to make music for the love of music. Saying G Dragon is the king of K Pop is kind of a "duh" statement. Everyone who likes K Pop knows at the individual level G Dragon was and is the King of K Pop. So, I am not sure if your need to say in caps what you felt you needed saying is simply stanning Idol worship or not understanding who Suga was trying to say he was king of when he said play it loud to Daechwita. At any rate, don't worry. No one is stripping G Dragon's title. And definitely not Suga who has tremendous respect for G Dragon.
If you're interested in learning the cultural references Suga made in the lyrics, I recommend DKDKTV's explanation video... They explain the 'putting my past in a rice chest" line and many others... Most have to do with more ancient Korean history, back when Korea had dynasties of kings during what we call the Middle Ages (roughly 1200-1600 AD) Great reaction! I didn't even realize you hadn't seen an MV yet, because I keep forgetting how few there are for any BTS or solo rap/hip-hop songs 😕
Yes! It would be awesome if u reacted to the explained video to this song. Get used to this cuz there ARE explanation videos for many of BTS' songs which r very eye openers. This will not be the only time u will c a comment abt reacting to explanation videos to many other BTS' songs cuz they ARE THAT DEEP 😁
Yes, I learn a lot when I watch DKDKTV's explanation videos. They are so good at showing the cultural influences in the MVs and lyrics that I had no clue cause I don't speak Korean. Especially when they breakdown the rap lyrics, and point out the word play like in Ddaeng, or Ugh. Anyway, great reaction!
Agust D is Suga Dt backwards, DT means Daegu Town, wich is the city from Korea where Suga was born! And Daechwita is actually a type of song they used to play when the king was marching or something in Korea, not necessarily a military song
BTS has always been mood music for me. Sometimes I want to hear JK doing a scat from House of Cards and other times I want to hear the non stop, no breathing, fire bars from RM in Joke lol, it's all about balance 🔥
For more stuff you’ll probably like: - Interlude: Shadow - Cypher 3 - Outro: Tear - Give it to Me by Agust D - The last by Agust D - STOP by jhope To push your tastes a bit: - People by Agust D - Seoul by RM - Outro: Ego To really go for something different: - Pied Piper - House of Cards - Lie - Intro: singularity - Begin - Idol Edited to add a cypher cause I’m silly not to have one in the first place!
@@zara471 😱😱😱😱 I totally did! I had been recommending it to them in previous videos but they just slipped my mind while I was writing this list!! Imma do a cheeky edit. Thank you!
I believe Daechwita is the music they would play when a king walks into the room. So he shouts "Daechwita" to basically call himself a king and announce himself. The song is about a king who becomes tyrannical. The king becomes too proud and it becomes a battle within himself.
If we're looking for something they won't like... it's DEFINITELY not that one LOL they'll love it. Edit: but if they do a reaction to it, they REALLY need to know the background on when this song was written and produced. The circumstances and stuff around it.
Thanks, guys. I'm so happy you're finally interacting with the lyrics. I like that you pointed out how Suga uses pauses between lines to emphasize certain things. I don't I've ever seen other reactors pointing that out before. The "rice chest" line is indeed a cultural reference. I think the subtitles in "Daechwita" MV is one of the better ones in terms of rhymes and language register (using "pill popper" instead "drug user", for example). Getting translation to rhyme is one of the hardest tasks in translation. I'm a translator myself, so I know how much work goes into that. If you prefer using lyric videos, then by all means, use them. Please do whatever is most comfortable for you. Just two things: First, choose lyric videos with good translations. I think people (including myself) have pointed the trustworthy and the untrustworthy ones. Because lyric videos only give you one line at a time, maybe you can also have the doolset website displayed in another tab/window, so you can see whole verses at a time. Second, you might want to preface your reactions by stating this preference, so people don't scold you for it LOL. Some reactors do two or more videos in one reaction, first the lyric video, second the music video, and then the live performance, etc. Or watch the music video twice, once for the music or visual or choreography, and once more to break down the lyrics. I'm sure you'll find a way that suits you the most.
I believe he said the king symbolizes his former self, he was initially motivated by ego materialism greed, in the video he's fighting that version of himself to stay humble, he realized that the most important thing is just being yourself
It is common for listeners new to BTS who speak English to compare the rapline to American rappers. However my advice is to listen to the music just as you would American songs, for the cadence's, musicality and flows because you can hear them in the music. I know people don't understand the language and some want to understand the lyrics but the language doesn't translate to English well. I have been Army since 2018. And for me once I know what the gist of the song is by reading the subtitles, it really doesn't matter much after that because when it all boils down to it, it's about the music, their vocals and cadences from the rap line. Try and listen for how it makes you feel. A lot of times I listen to songs while in my car because they bring a whole different vibe! Enjoy your journey. 💜💜
Great advise! I listen to basically everything, including tons of music in languages I don't understand. I listen for the mood, musicality, and melody before getting into the lyrics. Then when I get around to the lyrics I find deeper love for the music. And I leave comparing artist/music at the end. Love this approach!
@@merandalattanze3033I need to expand my music listening to other languages as well. Spanish and Korean is where I'm at right now. Smartinds think alike LOL 💜💜
This song is such a fantastic example of Sugas genius level abilities. His idea and use as the music producer of traditional music used by the military to announce the King as a flex to make a video where he is a greedy king. It’s Soo well blended musically. His lyrics and the MV is chalk full of historical references. The whole idea is killing his inner greedy corrupt by power “king” to become the young rebel man of the people. It’s brilliant and he controls the whole process the production smd idea for MV. Nobody does it like him.
Thank you for this reaction! Daechwita is one of my favorites. You may like his self titled song AgustD too, which came out in 2016. Looking forward to a reaction to RM and all of the vocalists too! Please react however and whatever is natural and best for both of you. If lyric videos give you more of a feel for the song, I think you should go for that. You can always react to the music video right after it in the same video, or on another reaction video. (Or not at all) I do enjoy watching reaction videos to MVs but would rather watch a reaction that is most natural to you.
considering how diverse BTS music is there will be something you wont like as much but even then there will probably be things in the song you will enjoy like the lyrics (wich in most if not all BTS songs are fire, it helps that the main writer is a literature loving rapper: their leader RM). I do recommend checking out the introduction to BTS member by Taylor its really well made and quite up to date (as of May so just missing their latest anthology album and Jhopes Jack in the Box solo album). And dont worry about making long videos ARMY are totally fine with longer videos so dont feel you need to limit yourself time wise.
Thanks for the reaction you guys, glad you're liking the music so far! And it's okay if eventually y'all end up not liking a song, as long as you remain respectful it's all good. We all have our favorite songs at the end of the day. BTS isn't a one dimensional group. They're experimental and play around with different styles all the time. I've been an ARMY for 6 years almost 7, and I'm telling you I've never seen them do the same thing twice. They surprise me everyday and I love it. Love that you're loving the Rap-line and I hope you can show the Vocal-line some love too! Keep the reactions coming and don't mind the ignorant haters. If y'all need help with anything just ask ARMY. Excited to see more 💜💜💜
Very well said. I'm agree with u. But I always end up loving their songs 🤣. There are songs which u fall in love instantly n there are some that grow in u slowly, n some u don't like it at 1st time but when u hear it somewhere else the 2nd time, u realise wow the song is kinda cool. 💜
Music is subjective true but they really have no bad songs some might be better than others in your case their rap/hip hop songs might be better than the recent pop songs but never bad except (on ft sia but thats because of sia lol) The cyphers are really good check those out 1-4
I've heard consistently bad things about Sia ON Collab, (the only BTS song I've ever heard anything negative said about it) THE ONE TO CHECK OUT IS: ON Kinetic Manifesto !
@@yukimm thats good you like it but me and probably half the fandom don't like her part in it, which is why I say because of sia...ON is one of my faves without her in it.
I'm digging your sarcasm at the end. You two are like some of the guys I chill with so I feel like I'm just chilling with my guys. BTS in general, including solo works, tend to tell stories in their music videos which is why ARMY tend to prefer music videos. For instance, the lyrics may read like it is about a relationship but the video shows what type of relationship it might be like inner struggle and relationship with yourself rather than a romantic one. I saw some recommendations for Interlude Shadow which I love, the music video which is called a comeback trailer is missing a verse, so looking at the lyric video for that one will definitely be good since it will be the full version. If you have time, watch the mv. Agust D like you saw is Suga backwards with DT which is short for Daegu Town, the hip hop crew he was a part of before BTS. The one thing that I always love about Suga is that he always goes back to his roots. In other songs, he always says he's a D boy-- which means he is a Daegu (his hometown) boy. Anyways this comment is long enough so until next time, peace
With BTS, the music videos and their live performances are integral components of their art, so much so that the best reactors are now doing multi part reactions where they include a lyric video or an explanation video as well as the music video or live performance. This is what's needed when you are dealing with a band of this calibre. BTS are far above the surface level of most Western music.
What you can do is watch the lyrics video first AND THEN watch the music video if it has one or live performance. Almost all the time BTS is so much better live. The studio version is great but they are born to perform on stage in front of a crowd. They sing, dance and rap all at once live and it's incredible to watch please take this into consideration. If the song doesn't have a music video Armies can suggest great live performances for u to experience. For example, you can watch the lyric video for Outro : tear and then go on to watch the live performance at wembley stadium. H Just bear in mind the translations on some of the lyrics videos may not be completely accurate ( doolset lyrics is great for accurate translations and cultural notes on things you may not pick up on) as well, music videos also have explained videos by bookish theory, dkdktv and xceleste to explain to foreigners about Korean cultural references and lyricism that you don't understand but I urge u to react to the mv along with the lyric video if you can or live performance. Great reaction guys
I feel like you guys would love “Joke” by RM. He literally DOES NOT take a breath for the entire song. It’s amazing. Also, “Outro Tear” (the live version) by all 3 rappers in the group is amazing. You’ll find as you keep watching that their lives sound exactly the same (if not better tbh) than their recorded stuff.
I love what you said about his flow here. He loves doing strategic pauses and adding that signature “mmh” into his raps haha, it just gives him that much more attitude 😂 And then going into a really long, complex, wordy bar just afterwards. When you hear more BTS songs, you’ll notice he also likes whispering “Suga” into the mic just before staring his verse, it’s very in the background of the tracks but you can’t stop noticing the trend once you start My least favourite BTS song… mmh, that’s a pretty hard question since (genuinely) I don’t hate any, but out of their most famous ones, probably DNA? Or maybe one of their very early B-Sides from 2014 or so, like Miss Right? Or Embarrassed? They’re not “bad songs” though, just not my personal style. For you, feel free to dislike whatever songs you dislike, please! 😂 it’s just about respect, mainly, that’s it 💜
Another great reaction! I honestly saw that you were genuine when you first reacted to Bad Decisions. You admitted that it wasn’t your style of music and that you watched it mainly for Snoop, and it was obvious that you didn’t like it that much. Which is totally understandable and i’m glad to see you expressing it respectfully like you did! As for the rap songs from BTS, i’m sure you’ll like most of it. But of course it’s okay even if you don’t! We enjoy watching you guys discovering their music anyways💜 As for the Korean lyrics vs the English translation, it will never be completely accurate. In most cases further explanation is needed. Also, in Korean, the concept of rhyming is almost non-existent. But still BTS rappers manage to do it. Here’s what one Korean-American literature professor said about it: “Although the world's foremost linguists consider Korean to be one of the most scientific languages, it is terrible for rhyming due to the grammatical rules and patterns, specifically the conjugations, and shortness of the words. In fact, the notion of rhyming is absent in Korean poetry. That is why Korean rappers focus more on flow and rhythm, unlike American rap, in which rhyming is the most important aspect. Therefore, the BTS rap line inventively utilizes consonance (the recurrence of similar sounds, especially consonants, in close proximity) and assonance (similar sounds of vowels) to create imaginative rhyming patterns. This is why I've been saying that no Korean rapper or poet can match the rap line when it comes to rhyming skills.” I hope to see you react to more BTS songs, especially such as Tear, Ugh, or Ddaeng (the last two with the explanation video from DKDKTV please). Love you guys💜
YESSS A MUSIC VIDEO 😂 and honestly we only say watch the MV over lyric videos bc a lot of the lyrics videos may not be 100% accurate since lyric videos creators are trying to get the videos out immediately after the song drops to get more views. And some of the earlier videos don’t have subtitles (before BTS became popular world wide) so lyric videos might be your only option there. I learned the hard way that if you select “autogenerated” that usually means you’re going to get gibberish and useless subtitles. And some lyric videos are better than others because of both superior translations and because they also add comments/notes to explain cultural references. And there are “explanation videos by a Korean” if you ever want to look even more closely at their lyrics which explain more of their lyrical impact since the explanation videos explains cultural references that nonnatives would completely miss. I know that’s a lot of information at once, so really, just do what you guys enjoy to do and don’t feel pressured by us to react to anything specific! I really enjoy watching your reactions to BTS- initially because I love seeing any non BTS fan react to their music. And since BTS has dabbled in so many genres of music, usually a new reactor can find something in their niche. Clearly your niche is hip hop and rap. As you can see, there are many rap line songs that are being recommended to you. When I watched your reaction to A Born Singer, you guys asked towards the end if BTS rapped any songs in English or if there are any english rap recommendations. Their English-only songs are Dynamite, Butter, and Permission to Dance and none of them are rap only. They wouldn’t necessarily have English only rap songs since they’re a Korean group. I know BTS and other non western hip hop might be a little outside of your comfort zone (yet you guys are awesome and branching out!) but I hope you continue to enjoy listening to their Korean rap songs as hip hop from a different non-English speaking regional scene. Yes, the members have the ability to rap in English (you might notice they use English loan words in their lyrics) as the members become more fluent in English in order to better connect with Western fans and the Western music industry. However their KOREAN lyricism that is delivered with an amazing flow and cadence is so incredible. I feel like you guys are mindful that Korean and English are different but you still appreciate the flow of what you’re hearing, which I like a lot! 😊 BTS members found inspiration in old school hip hop and I think you’ll really like their references in the song “Hip Hop Phile” (there is no MV, so lyric video is your only option lol). Even if the BTS rap line decided to perform one of their songs that is originally in korean to complete English, their delivery and flow wouldn’t be the same at all since 1) Korean words are not translated to sound the same as English words and 2) the structure of the korean language is very different to English- like the structure of their sentence is complete opposite of English. It makes it even more impressive that they can manipulate both English and Korean to use English loan words seamlessly in their Korean rap lyrics and still make sense at the same time. Hip hop has now branched globally with so many regional scenes across the world that it’s amazing to see non-American groups hold their own. Maybe one day instead of non-American rappers being compared to American rappers, maybe one day it will be flipped where a newer American rapper will be compared to a non-western rapper….maybe one day… I know this sounds like a troll comment, and I promise it really isn’t. I really enjoy your reactions and I’m happy that you’re reacting to artists, like BTS, who are outside your area of expertise. I can tell that you guys truly love rap and hip hop, and I’m so happy that you guys are trying out BTS. I hope you continue to enjoy doing this! Looking forward to your next video!
Yoongi is one of the fastest Kpop rappers his flow kadens and speed is mind blowing. Many references used in Yoongi's raps are about his personal life and also others criticism on itand how he claps back as well ...but also for younger generations and like telling his fans about different stuff and how they should work on stuff .
Joke by RM, FIRE, DNA, NOT TODAY, MIC Drop, ON: Kinetic Manifesto for sure!!!!! Fake Love, Blood Sweat & Tears, Black Swan, and Dionysus - with RM's Persona... an award show... they do things different in Asia for sure... and it's like a mini concert.
React to the video A Guide to BTS Members: The Bangtan 7 from Taylor's channel, it is a very useful video for beginners. Army always recommends it to people who are starting to react to BTS

Suga is a versatile rapper and he is known for his raw and honest lyrics and flow changes You should react to agustd -agustd it's his first solo song I'm sure you will like the song
Suga also recently produced and featured in psy(worldwide viral hit gangnam style guy) latest song that that. Check out that one. You gonna impressed to see how talented suga as producer. He also produced some other korean artists too.
AgustD is Suga spelled backwards and tD stands for Daegu Town (Town Daegu) which is his hometown in South Korea. A-G-U-STD. AgustD. It's not whether you like a song or don't not everybody likes everything. What I'm curious about is if you guys are open to other genres of music other than hip hop and rap. They do many different genres from hip-hop/rap, pop, r&b, EDM, latin, slow ballad, etc. This song is a lot deeper than it appears at first. I recommend you watch the video from DKDKTV: Daechwita explained.
BTS's rapline is the best. It reminds me to old school hip hop, the best decade for me. BTS have one of the most diverse discography . Some people only know them for their 3 english songs but that represents the 0,5% of their discography. They do : hip hop, pop, R&B.., and one of the best think they have are their lyrics!
You guys would probably benefit from watching the DKDKTV "Explained by a Korean" video for this song. It explains a lot of the stuff you were wondering about in this reaction.
Folks have told you what Daechwita is - I just want to say that there are a few ways he uses it in the song. One is as music played to announce that the king is coming, but it's also music to announce that an army is coming. I'm pretty sure he intended both. He's got the strength of ARMY behind him. It's also so Korean it defies translation.... Our Yoongi finds a lot of clever ways to clap back at people who say he's sold out to the West 😁 There are a lot of Korean cultural references here that help it all make sense. I usually suggest people plan to watch this video three times, so you can focus on musicality, lyricism, and visual story, because all three are really interesting and it's too much to take in all at once 😁 I come back to this one again and again and hear or see new things.
Really enjoyed the reaction also lol I appreciate you guys trying not too upset people but I think you guys are doing a great job I really enjoy your humor also can't wait for the cyphers the lyricism is crazy
You gotta check out their Festa room live 2021 it shows off there stage presence and there vocals so much I promise you that you'll become baby army for sure in no time lol.
Daechwita is the horn music in the background played to announce the king is moving about- our boy Suga/Agust D is saying “Daechwita Daechwita play it loud Daechwita” as in he’s the king and he’s coming through so announce the king’s arrival. The song is also a clap back to other rappers that criticized him for having gone from underground rapper to mainstream/idol.
You guys just popped up on my recommended for the first time and I just wanted to say thank you for doing your best to be respectful of cultural context and not upset fans. I'm also glad you guys are being honest as well and not just saying it's good so people don't get mad haha. I don't dislike any BTS songs but the one I probably listen to least is ON if you want to try listening to that. I'm looking forward to your other videos!
Guys, you're so entertaining! Honestly you'll always get lots of opinions from people but just do what you want to do - I quite like lyric videos too but it's true that you see a bit more personality through their nonverbal performance/communication through video. Do a mix or whatever you feel like on the day you're doing the reaction...or I guess what people are specifically requesting. You can't please everyone and you'll get to hear their music either way :) I'm smiling so much at how you react to your own enjoyment of this music so far, lol. With that too - keep being honest! The real ones can take it if there are songs you don't like! You're giving our boys airtime and a real chance to convince you which both mean a lot, plus you're giving them credit for their skills and following...so even if songs turn out to not be your cup of tea we'll still enjoy you navigating your way through their stuff.
I love Agust D❤️🔥Thank you for reaction. If you like rap wordplay, you'll enjoy the BTS rap lines "Cipher pt1,2,3,4"!!（Especially the RM part） "Cypher medlay" , "Ugh" and "Ddaeng" their live performance is fire!!🔥
There are lots of cultural references in the song. The rice chest part is a historical reference, where the king in the past locked his own heir into the rice chest for days till he died, with no food & water. It was a tragedy
In front of the car, the picture of Bang PD, the one who got them together (the nose and all) there are a lot of elements and references in this this video as BTS always does to connect content. Jin and JK were the guys fighting in the market...
He references Korean history..Eg This word for “rice chest” he uses is 뒤주, which is not used at all these days and only well known in context of the Crown Prince Sado. This was a very sad story. The Crown Prince was said to have been really smart and loved as a toddler, but his father the King started to be more and more strict and abusive as he grew up. He was abused and publicly humiliated by the King all his life, until he started to go crazy in his twenties and started raping and killing people around him. The King then took the crown prince status away from him, and locked him in a rice chest where he starved to death. To “put the past in a rice chest”…what does it mean? It definitely has feel of “killing the past” rather than “storing the past” in that rice chest. And it would also imply a very painful and dark past.
I like that y'all started with learning what Daechwita means first, and that you're kinda breaking down the lyrics a bit and analyzing Suga's flow. It's actually interesting to hear that! If you guys want a mix of rap, vocals, super dope dancing and just a hyped song, I suggest you watch MIC DROP (Steve Aoki remix). Istg y'all gonna like it 💜
just dropping by to show appreciation! it's hard but i'm glad you're trying to catch the bars. it's probably not what you do but there are explanation vids for some bts songs since we're non-korean speakers and the bts rapline aren't lazy on lyricism so we lose a lot over mere translations. 🤧 "you nice, keep going."
The music you hear in the VERY beginning is traditional Daechwita. The rest is a rap over a modernized version. DKDKTV has a great breakdown of the cultural references, but Bookish Theory also has a breakdown that focuses more on the video elements and references.
Like the reaction 😍 this song is amazing prefect🔥 the visual.. the story talen.. the lirick.. the beat.. the flow.. the everything awesome ..incredible .. suga is genius.. he got unique voice.. the best producer.. songwriter.. composer.. masterpiece.. multitalented.. fast rapper.. king swag.. king of stage.. love suga so much 🥰😍💜 Please check another agust’d MV .. agust d mv .. give it to me
I definitely like that you don't need videos necessarily. It shows that you're into the Hip hop and music, whatever it is. This is an fire mv of course but Daechwita is also on my workout playlist. The thing about BTS is that they don't even need their mind-blowing videos and razor sharp choreo, but they do them anyway. The music stands on its own.
[2:00] Yeah those are headless bodies under the mats. Good spot! Not many get the reference. The boxes have their heads. Mad King loves his heads.. You'll see. [2:50] Daechwita is the marching type of music that is reserved to be played when the King is on the move, either in parades or on a war path.. This is a bit of both, Emperor is on the prowl ;) [3:50] Rice chest is a historical reference (I'm sure dozens of ARMY have already explained where it comes from.) - there is actually really good explanations for BTS videos, that will make you understand them SO much better of you use them (Just keep away the Italian one with Spring Day, please, it is just way too overly dramatic.) [4:43] Because your ear is not trained yet to pick up Korean, you can look up the lyrics, but there is playing with the languages (which usually is RM's specialty, but Suga can be surprisingly clever with it too) "I was born a tiger I ain't no weak pill popper like you" and then he goes into flexing thing - but in the flexing part there is Korean word that has a part that sounds like "pill" (it is actually pir) so he's having a play on how the words sound also, not just with the meaning in one language. [7:25] After all, this producer works in a studio he named Genius Lab ;D (even though we might argue that there is another genius (or several others with Suga) in the group.. ;D) [10:29] "He killed himself" or he killed another part of himself.. You need to know that he practically ran away from home, probably evoking his father to disinherit him, or at least close to it.. Another thing you need to know that this historical movie and tv-drama set is a real exact copy of the main palace of the last king of Korea.. Suga's (Min Yoongi, last name first) ancestral grandmother was the last empress of Korea. He started this music video in the exact copy of the throne, that by blood belongs to him - (there is several of these noble blooded people, and like the last king of the throne was not a Min. And there is another of those noble liners in this video (getting the *bleep* smacked out of him), as there is two other noble liners in BTS along Suga, these two happen also be related to each other, and they did not know each other before meeting in BTS and realizing they are of the same clan. (These clans are HUGE. Min clan is about 167,000 people.) Anyway, he has thrown away his "royal blooded himself" and is saying here also that some of us are born into royal bloods but the real king is the one who does the work to earn the skills and the honor does not come without the obligations. Agust D also has earlier song where he says "Min Yoongi is dead already (I killed him)" Min Yoongi is Agust D's/Suga's full name. That song is also about other things, but I'm taking it also partly how he was ready to throw away his former self, to the point of writing off all of his past, to pursue being a rapper against his parents opinions, and against all odds try to become skilled enough that his lyrics would touch somebody. * There is so much culturally in this MV and we are not even talking about why there is time travelling (AND Jin!) and how the car relates to this other (later) video, and how the car itself has a strong meaning.. Just know there is a LOT. This is how BTS videos are. AND this is not EVEN a BTS video. This is Just a product of impeccable Genius Lab and it's crowned Emperor Min PD.
Since you two like RM / rap, he just released a collab with Balming Tiger called "Sexy Nukim". Cyphers 1-4, Ddang (RM's stutter rap is chef's kiss), Mic Drop are also heavy diss tracks the boys wrote. RM Suga and Jhope all have 2 solo work albums (RM, Mono, Augstd, D-2, Hope World and Jack in the box). Their earlier work in 2013-2014 are heavily rap influenced and their lyrics literally saved lives. Enjoy the rabbit hole!
This is how I explain kpop: It's equal parts singing/rapping, dancing, beats, lyrics, and music video. If you skip any of those, you're cheating yourself out of the whole experience. My suggestion would be to do both the music video and the lyric video. And don't worry, ARMY enjoys long reaction videos!
you guys are funny. I believe you when you say you like the music. I didn't expect to love their music as much as I do either. and I love hip hop but I also love pop and r&b and other genres so I guess I was bound to enjoy them 😂
The Cyphers parts 1 to 4 are just so good. Suga, RM, and Jhope. BTS got and still do get lots of hate from jealous vile fans of other groups so they snap back in the Cyphers and rightly so. BTS were so badly mistreated it was a crime. They were not given the start that other groups were so they made their own way by being authentic and staying true to themselves. They used other platforms to connect with fans and achieved the legendary status they have now by themselves with Army right beside them. Some good informative videos for you are excelestes this is BTS an introduction and Who is the BTS ARMY. Then the Hardships one. You will understand more and feel very quickly become ARMY. We are almost 1 billion strong and not all screaming teenagers. I'm 58 years old UK army and I can't express enough how much I admire and respect them. I love all 7 of these precious men from South Korea. An avid Rock Music fan I discovered them at the start of the pandemic and my life has never been the same. They are my light and make me so happy. Its very important to not compare BTS to others they do not copy others they don't need to. They are all 7 associates of the Korean copyright association and all participate in writing and producing their songs. I love that you seem to like them. Army always respect those that respect BTS, we see everything and its amazing the smallest details. You will get massive increase in subscribers and some even send gifts.
Daechwita is the music played during military processions before the emperor. He sampled the music and the chorus is basically him saying play it loud he's the king coming through 😎
AgustD is SUGA from BTS. Real name is Yoongi ❣️ He is composer, producer and songwriter near being one of the fastest rappers in K-pop. U need to check his AGUSTD, Seasaw, The last, People songs. Also BTS Rapline 's Ddeang and Outro Tear where he is main producer with other Rappers RM and JHope. Also Chypers series CHYPERS 1.2.3.4 .. Also UGH live performance 👌 I am sure you will enjoy it
I cant say I have a least favorite BTS song, because even their underrated songs are soooo good. At this point, it would be personal preference, some songs might not come off as good to others as it is to me. But they are very versatile, and with a discography as vast as theirs, it might take time before you can listen to a majority of their songs. Love the reaction by the way! 💖👋🏻
Here is a recommendation for you. This one is a performance video with songs from their PROOF anthology album released on June 10, 2022. There are three songs, one is an older unofficial song that was released officially on their Proof album, and then two new ones, and they had a special guest as well (Anderson Paak on drums). This was in California they performed in April, when they came to the U.S. for the Grammy's, and their Las Vegas 4 day sold out stadium concert series. You might need to go into settings to choose English subs. There is also a conversation they had after the second song about their PROOF album and memories. This was released on Their 9 year anniversary. *Don't forget to turn on closed captions and go into settings to choose the English subs* BTS 'Proof' Live (Born Singer, Yet To Come, For Youth) w/English subs - ruclips.net/video/9sJ_I1lHpps/видео.html We LOVE their music videos because it's a different experience. They are very talented and artistic, and they have their hands in every aspect of their art. They are performance artists, so we prefer live performances if possible. They thrive on stage, and their vocals, rap skills, and choreography are on another level when they are performing for ARMY's. You will see what we mean eventually when you react to a live concert or music show, or award show. ARMY's become part of the performance. Anyway, I will link you the ARSON video, please react to it.

@@Chameleon_Halo I do know the Grammy's were in Vegas. I was told this was in California. If you say it was in Vegas, then maybe it was. But this was definitely before their concert series in Vegas, and it was released on June 13.
I like that you're giving this a chance. All of it doesn't have to be your favorite but I appreciate it when people give it a chance and don't immediately hate on stuff because they have some weird conception of it that might not even be true. Thank you for your reaction!
They take a lot of inspiration from American rappers and hip hop but then add in their own culture and word play. They did a show called American Hustle life with Tony Jones and Coolio. You all should check that out! They really test their knowledge and love for the hip hop/rap culture.
Fun fact: the gun that Suga (or Agust D) used is called Colt m1860 Army. So he also is referencing the fans ARMY. Fun fact #2: two other members where in the MV. They where the ones fake fighting behind him at the beginning.
What's really going to blow your mind is the way they will purposefully switch between Korean and English and find words in both languages that make sense contextually and sonically. You can see this at its best, in my opinion at least, in their Cyphers. Particularly with RM, who is fluent in English. I love seeing musicians discover these guys - I appreciate the knowledge you can bring so I can learn something new, so thanks for doing these reactions!
There's some videos made by DKTV that have an explained by a korean series, that would be helpful in breaking down some of the cultural nuances a lot of bts songs have. I highly recommend watching even if its not for reactions it makes the songs 10x more cooler having more context behind them especially with songs like this that have a lot more than you can catch if you don't have more cultural info about korea.

By the way "BTS," actually stands for the words, "Bangtan Sonyeondan," which translates to mean "Bulletproof Boy Scouts." 'Bangtan’ means to be resistant to bullets, so it means to block out stereotypes, criticisms, and expectations that aim on adolescents like bullets, to preserve the values and ideal of today’s adolescents,"

I enjoy how you try to break down and analyze the lyrics and mv and how the lines are delivered all at the same time. It's a lot to take in in just one go, so I agree with some suggesting you watch the lyric video first and then the mv. And you can even react to a live performance after, I wouldn't mind that 🙂
Agust D (also known as SUGA) is ranked as one of the most influential producers and songwriters in South Korea, who won multiple awards over the past few years, including best producer. He debuted at #9 on Billboard Hot 100 Songwriters Chart. He became the first male soloist in history to have a song and album reach No.1 on iTunes in 100 countries each. He is ranked No.1 most streamed Korean male soloist globally in 2021 on Spotify. His mixtape "D-2" debuted at #11 on Billboard 200 and it is the most streamed album by a Korean soloist. And there is just a few of his achievements. He has two self-produced mixtapes: "Agust D" (2016) and "D-2" (2020), which broke several records on music charts worldwide. He uses his platform to talk about important topics and most of his lyrics touch such subjects as mental health, social issues, the contrast between dreams and reality, etc. To put this simply, in Daechwita MV king is his past self. The other one is his present self. So he shot his past self. "Daechwita" is a genre of Korean traditional military music, which was played to announce the arrival of king. He was also working as producer for brand like Samsung. I recommend you to check out (Agust D, Agust D) (Agust D, What do you think) Fun Fact: Yoongi(Suga) has a royal blood in his body. His great great great grandmother is the very last empress of Korea. He’s a member of the loyal family in Korea.
Daechwita is a military music but most known for when the king's entourage moved through the public in ancient times. The music is played here is not Daechwita but a rap beat embellished by some of the traditional instruments of Daechwita. Suga in his two roles, most importantly that of lower class Suga, is saying it loud announcing he is the king.
G DRAGON THE KING OF KPOP
@@himaririku9254 Suga is referring to rap specifically. The way his underground sunbaes savaged him for joining the Idol platform, inferring he no longer had hip-hop bona fides, ate at Suga's craw. He spent years trying to be regarded as a rap king by being aggressive with his skills and using his rap to put down the sunbaes for being overly concerned with him. That is the Chosin Dynasty mad king he portrays here. The other is a commoner which for Suga is what he aspires to be. Suga feels he has proven enough and just wants to be grounded. If the people deem him king he can share as a commoner king with people without always worrying if he is the best. So he must kill his old self off. As he says in this year's Yet to Come I am a bit bothered by being called the best. I just to make music for the love of music.
Saying G Dragon is the king of K Pop is kind of a "duh" statement. Everyone who likes K Pop knows at the individual level G Dragon was and is the King of K Pop. So, I am not sure if your need to say in caps what you felt you needed saying is simply stanning Idol worship or not understanding who Suga was trying to say he was king of when he said play it loud to Daechwita. At any rate, don't worry. No one is stripping G Dragon's title. And definitely not Suga who has tremendous respect for G Dragon.
@@himaririku9254 🤣🤣🤣
@@himaririku9254 no it's suga
@@himaririku9254 no it's suga
If you're interested in learning the cultural references Suga made in the lyrics, I recommend DKDKTV's explanation video... They explain the 'putting my past in a rice chest" line and many others... Most have to do with more ancient Korean history, back when Korea had dynasties of kings during what we call the Middle Ages (roughly 1200-1600 AD)
Great reaction! I didn't even realize you hadn't seen an MV yet, because I keep forgetting how few there are for any BTS or solo rap/hip-hop songs 😕
Yes! It would be awesome if u reacted to the explained video to this song. Get used to this cuz there ARE explanation videos for many of BTS' songs which r very eye openers. This will not be the only time u will c a comment abt reacting to explanation videos to many other BTS' songs cuz they ARE THAT DEEP 😁
Yes, I learn a lot when I watch DKDKTV's explanation videos. They are so good at showing the cultural influences in the MVs and lyrics that I had no clue cause I don't speak Korean. Especially when they breakdown the rap lyrics, and point out the word play like in Ddaeng, or Ugh.
Anyway, great reaction!
G DRAGON THE KING
Agust D is Suga Dt backwards, DT means Daegu Town, wich is the city from Korea where Suga was born!
And Daechwita is actually a type of song they used to play when the king was marching or something in Korea, not necessarily a military song
I actually think it is military, like a military marching band...but i could be wrong
Daegu, where he is from, Daegu Town was the name of his group when he was an underground rapper.
G DRAGON THE KING ,
BTS has always been mood music for me. Sometimes I want to hear JK doing a scat from House of Cards and other times I want to hear the non stop, no breathing, fire bars from RM in Joke lol, it's all about balance 🔥

@@zara471 😱😱😱😱 I totally did! I had been recommending it to them in previous videos but they just slipped my mind while I was writing this list!! Imma do a cheeky edit. Thank you!
G DRAGON KING
I believe Daechwita is the music they would play when a king walks into the room. So he shouts "Daechwita" to basically call himself a king and announce himself. The song is about a king who becomes tyrannical. The king becomes too proud and it becomes a battle within himself.
If I have said any misinformation, please feel free to correct!
@Sharon Jose I watched a video on it.
Definitely recommend seeing a live performance from them! Outro: Tear is a great one: ruclips.net/video/UDuaJGYe8EQ/видео.html
If we're looking for something they won't like... it's DEFINITELY not that one LOL they'll love it.
Edit: but if they do a reaction to it, they REALLY need to know the background on when this song was written and produced. The circumstances and stuff around it.
Yes please. It's amazing
G DRAGON THE KING ,
Thanks, guys. I'm so happy you're finally interacting with the lyrics. I like that you pointed out how Suga uses pauses between lines to emphasize certain things. I don't I've ever seen other reactors pointing that out before. The "rice chest" line is indeed a cultural reference.
I think the subtitles in "Daechwita" MV is one of the better ones in terms of rhymes and language register (using "pill popper" instead "drug user", for example). Getting translation to rhyme is one of the hardest tasks in translation. I'm a translator myself, so I know how much work goes into that.
If you prefer using lyric videos, then by all means, use them. Please do whatever is most comfortable for you. Just two things:
First, choose lyric videos with good translations. I think people (including myself) have pointed the trustworthy and the untrustworthy ones. Because lyric videos only give you one line at a time, maybe you can also have the doolset website displayed in another tab/window, so you can see whole verses at a time.
Second, you might want to preface your reactions by stating this preference, so people don't scold you for it LOL.
Some reactors do two or more videos in one reaction, first the lyric video, second the music video, and then the live performance, etc. Or watch the music video twice, once for the music or visual or choreography, and once more to break down the lyrics. I'm sure you'll find a way that suits you the most.
I agree 💜
I believe he said the king symbolizes his former self, he was initially motivated by ego materialism greed, in the video he's fighting that version of himself to stay humble, he realized that the most important thing is just being yourself
It is common for listeners new to BTS who speak English to compare the rapline to American rappers. However my advice is to listen to the music just as you would American songs, for the cadence's, musicality and flows because you can hear them in the music. I know people don't understand the language and some want to understand the lyrics but the language doesn't translate to English well.
I have been Army since 2018. And for me once I know what the gist of the song is by reading the subtitles, it really doesn't matter much after that because when it all boils down to it, it's about the music, their vocals and cadences from the rap line. Try and listen for how it makes you feel. A lot of times I listen to songs while in my car because they bring a whole different vibe! Enjoy your journey. 💜💜
Great advise! I listen to basically everything, including tons of music in languages I don't understand. I listen for the mood, musicality, and melody before getting into the lyrics. Then when I get around to the lyrics I find deeper love for the music. And I leave comparing artist/music at the end. Love this approach!
@@merandalattanze3033I need to expand my music listening to other languages as well. Spanish and Korean is where I'm at right now. Smartinds think alike LOL 💜💜
He's fire. Suga is so talented 🔥
This song is such a fantastic example of Sugas genius level abilities. His idea and use as the music producer of traditional music used by the military to announce the King as a flex to make a video where he is a greedy king. It’s Soo well blended musically. His lyrics and the MV is chalk full of historical references. The whole idea is killing his inner greedy corrupt by power “king” to become the young rebel man of the people. It’s brilliant and he controls the whole process the production smd idea for MV. Nobody does it like him.
Thank you for this reaction! Daechwita is one of my favorites. You may like his self titled song AgustD too, which came out in 2016. Looking forward to a reaction to RM and all of the vocalists too!
Please react however and whatever is natural and best for both of you. If lyric videos give you more of a feel for the song, I think you should go for that. You can always react to the music video right after it in the same video, or on another reaction video. (Or not at all) I do enjoy watching reaction videos to MVs but would rather watch a reaction that is most natural to you.
considering how diverse BTS music is there will be something you wont like as much but even then there will probably be things in the song you will enjoy like the lyrics (wich in most if not all BTS songs are fire, it helps that the main writer is a literature loving rapper: their leader RM). I do recommend checking out the introduction to BTS member by Taylor its really well made and quite up to date (as of May so just missing their latest anthology album and Jhopes Jack in the Box solo album). And dont worry about making long videos ARMY are totally fine with longer videos so dont feel you need to limit yourself time wise.
Thanks for the reaction you guys, glad you're liking the music so far! And it's okay if eventually y'all end up not liking a song, as long as you remain respectful it's all good. We all have our favorite songs at the end of the day.
BTS isn't a one dimensional group. They're experimental and play around with different styles all the time. I've been an ARMY for 6 years almost 7, and I'm telling you I've never seen them do the same thing twice. They surprise me everyday and I love it.
Love that you're loving the Rap-line and I hope you can show the Vocal-line some love too!
Keep the reactions coming and don't mind the ignorant haters. If y'all need help with anything just ask ARMY. Excited to see more 💜💜💜
Very well said. I'm agree with u. But I always end up loving their songs 🤣. There are songs which u fall in love instantly n there are some that grow in u slowly, n some u don't like it at 1st time but when u hear it somewhere else the 2nd time, u realise wow the song is kinda cool. 💜
@@indri2137 Yup, so true lol! It happens so often to me that I end up liking every song. It's magic 😂💜
Music is subjective true but they really have no bad songs some might be better than others in your case their rap/hip hop songs might be better than the recent pop songs but never bad except (on ft sia but thats because of sia lol) The cyphers are really good check those out 1-4
I've heard consistently bad things about Sia ON Collab, (the only BTS song I've ever heard anything negative said about it)
THE ONE TO CHECK OUT IS:
ON Kinetic Manifesto
!
You really went there with the Sia collab😆. The only BTS track I never, ever listen to.
@@butterbuttersbetter3689 WoW must be weawwy bad 😕
Why do you say that? It's not sia's fault that they didn't like the track. I don't know but "On ft sia" is my most favorite song.
@@yukimm thats good you like it but me and probably half the fandom don't like her part in it, which is why I say because of sia...ON is one of my faves without her in it.
I'm digging your sarcasm at the end. You two are like some of the guys I chill with so I feel like I'm just chilling with my guys. BTS in general, including solo works, tend to tell stories in their music videos which is why ARMY tend to prefer music videos. For instance, the lyrics may read like it is about a relationship but the video shows what type of relationship it might be like inner struggle and relationship with yourself rather than a romantic one.
I saw some recommendations for Interlude Shadow which I love, the music video which is called a comeback trailer is missing a verse, so looking at the lyric video for that one will definitely be good since it will be the full version. If you have time, watch the mv.
Agust D like you saw is Suga backwards with DT which is short for Daegu Town, the hip hop crew he was a part of before BTS. The one thing that I always love about Suga is that he always goes back to his roots. In other songs, he always says he's a D boy-- which means he is a Daegu (his hometown) boy.
Anyways this comment is long enough so until next time, peace
With BTS, the music videos and their live performances are integral components of their art, so much so that the best reactors are now doing multi part reactions where they include a lyric video or an explanation video as well as the music video or live performance.
This is what's needed when you are dealing with a band of this calibre. BTS are far above the surface level of most Western music.
What you can do is watch the lyrics video first AND THEN watch the music video if it has one or live performance. Almost all the time BTS is so much better live. The studio version is great but they are born to perform on stage in front of a crowd. They sing, dance and rap all at once live and it's incredible to watch please take this into consideration. If the song doesn't have a music video Armies can suggest great live performances for u to experience.
For example, you can watch the lyric video for Outro : tear and then go on to watch the live performance at wembley stadium.
H
Just bear in mind the translations on some of the lyrics videos may not be completely accurate ( doolset lyrics is great for accurate translations and cultural notes on things you may not pick up on) as well, music videos also have explained videos by bookish theory, dkdktv and xceleste to explain to foreigners about Korean cultural references and lyricism that you don't understand but I urge u to react to the mv along with the lyric video if you can or live performance. Great reaction guys
I feel like you guys would love “Joke” by RM. He literally DOES NOT take a breath for the entire song. It’s amazing. Also, “Outro Tear” (the live version) by all 3 rappers in the group is amazing. You’ll find as you keep watching that their lives sound exactly the same (if not better tbh) than their recorded stuff.
One thing I love about your reactions is you guys really focus on the lyrics...that's a very important factor for a musician👍
We are getting new song from him next year(2023) yessss
I love what you said about his flow here. He loves doing strategic pauses and adding that signature “mmh” into his raps haha, it just gives him that much more attitude 😂 And then going into a really long, complex, wordy bar just afterwards. When you hear more BTS songs, you’ll notice he also likes whispering “Suga” into the mic just before staring his verse, it’s very in the background of the tracks but you can’t stop noticing the trend once you start
My least favourite BTS song… mmh, that’s a pretty hard question since (genuinely) I don’t hate any, but out of their most famous ones, probably DNA? Or maybe one of their very early B-Sides from 2014 or so, like Miss Right? Or Embarrassed? They’re not “bad songs” though, just not my personal style. For you, feel free to dislike whatever songs you dislike, please! 😂 it’s just about respect, mainly, that’s it 💜
Another great reaction! I honestly saw that you were genuine when you first reacted to Bad Decisions. You admitted that it wasn’t your style of music and that you watched it mainly for Snoop, and it was obvious that you didn’t like it that much. Which is totally understandable and i’m glad to see you expressing it respectfully like you did!
As for the rap songs from BTS, i’m sure you’ll like most of it. But of course it’s okay even if you don’t! We enjoy watching you guys discovering their music anyways💜
As for the Korean lyrics vs the English translation, it will never be completely accurate. In most cases further explanation is needed. Also, in Korean, the concept of rhyming is almost non-existent. But still BTS rappers manage to do it. Here’s what one Korean-American literature professor said about it:
“Although the world's foremost linguists consider Korean to be one of the most scientific languages, it is terrible for rhyming due to the grammatical rules and patterns, specifically the conjugations, and shortness of the words. In fact, the notion of rhyming is absent in Korean poetry. That is why Korean rappers focus more on flow and rhythm, unlike American rap, in which rhyming is the most important aspect.
Therefore, the BTS rap line inventively utilizes consonance (the recurrence of similar sounds, especially consonants, in close proximity) and assonance (similar sounds of vowels) to create imaginative rhyming patterns. This is why I've been saying that no Korean rapper or poet can match the rap line when it comes to rhyming skills.”
I hope to see you react to more BTS songs, especially such as Tear, Ugh, or Ddaeng (the last two with the explanation video from DKDKTV please).
Love you guys💜
THIS comment. I learned something, thanks. 💜
YESSS A MUSIC VIDEO 😂 and honestly we only say watch the MV over lyric videos bc a lot of the lyrics videos may not be 100% accurate since lyric videos creators are trying to get the videos out immediately after the song drops to get more views. And some of the earlier videos don’t have subtitles (before BTS became popular world wide) so lyric videos might be your only option there. I learned the hard way that if you select “autogenerated” that usually means you’re going to get gibberish and useless subtitles. And some lyric videos are better than others because of both superior translations and because they also add comments/notes to explain cultural references. And there are “explanation videos by a Korean” if you ever want to look even more closely at their lyrics which explain more of their lyrical impact since the explanation videos explains cultural references that nonnatives would completely miss. I know that’s a lot of information at once, so really, just do what you guys enjoy to do and don’t feel pressured by us to react to anything specific!
I really enjoy watching your reactions to BTS- initially because I love seeing any non BTS fan react to their music. And since BTS has dabbled in so many genres of music, usually a new reactor can find something in their niche. Clearly your niche is hip hop and rap.
As you can see, there are many rap line songs that are being recommended to you. When I watched your reaction to A Born Singer, you guys asked towards the end if BTS rapped any songs in English or if there are any english rap recommendations. Their English-only songs are Dynamite, Butter, and Permission to Dance and none of them are rap only. They wouldn’t necessarily have English only rap songs since they’re a Korean group. I know BTS and other non western hip hop might be a little outside of your comfort zone (yet you guys are awesome and branching out!) but I hope you continue to enjoy listening to their Korean rap songs as hip hop from a different non-English speaking regional scene. Yes, the members have the ability to rap in English (you might notice they use English loan words in their lyrics) as the members become more fluent in English in order to better connect with Western fans and the Western music industry. However their KOREAN lyricism that is delivered with an amazing flow and cadence is so incredible. I feel like you guys are mindful that Korean and English are different but you still appreciate the flow of what you’re hearing, which I like a lot! 😊 BTS members found inspiration in old school hip hop and I think you’ll really like their references in the song “Hip Hop Phile” (there is no MV, so lyric video is your only option lol).
Even if the BTS rap line decided to perform one of their songs that is originally in korean to complete English, their delivery and flow wouldn’t be the same at all since 1) Korean words are not translated to sound the same as English words and 2) the structure of the korean language is very different to English- like the structure of their sentence is complete opposite of English. It makes it even more impressive that they can manipulate both English and Korean to use English loan words seamlessly in their Korean rap lyrics and still make sense at the same time.
Hip hop has now branched globally with so many regional scenes across the world that it’s amazing to see non-American groups hold their own. Maybe one day instead of non-American rappers being compared to American rappers, maybe one day it will be flipped where a newer American rapper will be compared to a non-western rapper….maybe one day…
I know this sounds like a troll comment, and I promise it really isn’t. I really enjoy your reactions and I’m happy that you’re reacting to artists, like BTS, who are outside your area of expertise. I can tell that you guys truly love rap and hip hop, and I’m so happy that you guys are trying out BTS. I hope you continue to enjoy doing this! Looking forward to your next video!
Daechwita is connected with his past song "AgustD" and "Give it to me" he basically kills his past self which was the blond one.
Yoongi is one of the fastest Kpop rappers his flow kadens and speed is mind blowing. Many references used in Yoongi's raps are about his personal life and also others criticism on itand how he claps back as well ...but also for younger generations and like telling his fans about different stuff and how they should work on stuff .
Joke by RM, FIRE, DNA, NOT TODAY, MIC Drop, ON: Kinetic Manifesto for sure!!!!! Fake Love, Blood Sweat & Tears, Black Swan, and Dionysus - with RM's Persona... an award show... they do things different in Asia for sure... and it's like a mini concert.
You will definitely see Suga's more savage side if you listen to his Agust D solo music, especially 'What Do You Think?' its so GOOD

💜💜 To all the Armies here: I just mentioned those BTS songs that I listen to them mostly if there are any other songs you like, add to this list or comment seperately 😉😄💜
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
There are NO "least favorite BTS songs." ARMY loves all their music. Understand, we're family. Accept that and carry on. ✌😺💜
Suga is a versatile rapper and he is known for his raw and honest lyrics and flow changes
You should react to agustd -agustd it's his first solo song I'm sure you will like the song
Suga also recently produced and featured in psy(worldwide viral hit gangnam style guy) latest song that that. Check out that one. You gonna impressed to see how talented suga as producer. He also produced some other korean artists too.
AgustD is Suga spelled backwards and tD stands for Daegu Town (Town Daegu) which is his hometown in South Korea.
A-G-U-STD. AgustD.
It's not whether you like a song or don't not everybody likes everything. What I'm curious about is if you guys are open to other genres of music other than hip hop and rap. They do many different genres from hip-hop/rap, pop, r&b, EDM, latin, slow ballad, etc.
This song is a lot deeper than it appears at first. I recommend you watch the video from DKDKTV: Daechwita explained.
BTS's rapline is the best. It reminds me to old school hip hop, the best decade for me. BTS have one of the most diverse discography . Some people only know them for their 3 english songs but that represents the 0,5% of their discography. They do : hip hop, pop, R&B.., and one of the best think they have are their lyrics!
You guys would probably benefit from watching the DKDKTV "Explained by a Korean" video for this song. It explains a lot of the stuff you were wondering about in this reaction.
Yes, there is a historical reference about the rice chest.
Folks have told you what Daechwita is - I just want to say that there are a few ways he uses it in the song. One is as music played to announce that the king is coming, but it's also music to announce that an army is coming. I'm pretty sure he intended both. He's got the strength of ARMY behind him.
It's also so Korean it defies translation.... Our Yoongi finds a lot of clever ways to clap back at people who say he's sold out to the West 😁
There are a lot of Korean cultural references here that help it all make sense. I usually suggest people plan to watch this video three times, so you can focus on musicality, lyricism, and visual story, because all three are really interesting and it's too much to take in all at once 😁
I come back to this one again and again and hear or see new things.
Really enjoyed the reaction also lol I appreciate you guys trying not too upset people but I think you guys are doing a great job I really enjoy your humor also can't wait for the cyphers the lyricism is crazy
You gotta check out their Festa room live 2021 it shows off there stage presence and there vocals so much I promise you that you'll become baby army for sure in no time lol.
Agust D's Agust D is fire too. Please check that out too.
Daechwita is the horn music in the background played to announce the king is moving about- our boy Suga/Agust D is saying “Daechwita Daechwita play it loud Daechwita”
as in he’s the king and he’s coming through so announce the king’s arrival.
The song is also a clap back to other rappers that criticized him for having gone from underground rapper to mainstream/idol.
You guys just popped up on my recommended for the first time and I just wanted to say thank you for doing your best to be respectful of cultural context and not upset fans. I'm also glad you guys are being honest as well and not just saying it's good so people don't get mad haha. I don't dislike any BTS songs but the one I probably listen to least is ON if you want to try listening to that. I'm looking forward to your other videos!
Guys, you're so entertaining! Honestly you'll always get lots of opinions from people but just do what you want to do - I quite like lyric videos too but it's true that you see a bit more personality through their nonverbal performance/communication through video. Do a mix or whatever you feel like on the day you're doing the reaction...or I guess what people are specifically requesting. You can't please everyone and you'll get to hear their music either way :)
I'm smiling so much at how you react to your own enjoyment of this music so far, lol. With that too - keep being honest! The real ones can take it if there are songs you don't like! You're giving our boys airtime and a real chance to convince you which both mean a lot, plus you're giving them credit for their skills and following...so even if songs turn out to not be your cup of tea we'll still enjoy you navigating your way through their stuff.
I love Agust D❤️🔥Thank you for reaction.
If you like rap wordplay, you'll enjoy the BTS rap lines "Cipher pt1,2,3,4"!!（Especially the RM part）
"Cypher medlay" , "Ugh" and "Ddaeng" their live performance is fire!!🔥
There are lots of cultural references in the song. The rice chest part is a historical reference, where the king in the past locked his own heir into the rice chest for days till he died, with no food & water. It was a tragedy
In front of the car, the picture of Bang PD, the one who got them together (the nose and all) there are a lot of elements and references in this this video as BTS always does to connect content. Jin and JK were the guys fighting in the market...
He references Korean history..Eg
This word for “rice chest” he uses is 뒤주, which is not used at all these days and only well known in context of the Crown Prince Sado. This was a very sad story. The Crown Prince was said to have been really smart and loved as a toddler, but his father the King started to be more and more strict and abusive as he grew up. He was abused and publicly humiliated by the King all his life, until he started to go crazy in his twenties and started raping and killing people around him. The King then took the crown prince status away from him, and locked him in a rice chest where he starved to death.
To “put the past in a rice chest”…what does it mean? It definitely has feel of “killing the past” rather than “storing the past” in that rice chest. And it would also imply a very painful and dark past.
I like that y'all started with learning what Daechwita means first, and that you're kinda breaking down the lyrics a bit and analyzing Suga's flow. It's actually interesting to hear that!
If you guys want a mix of rap, vocals, super dope dancing and just a hyped song, I suggest you watch MIC DROP (Steve Aoki remix). Istg y'all gonna like it 💜
All their music video’s are high quality made. You will not be disappointed.
just dropping by to show appreciation! it's hard but i'm glad you're trying to catch the bars. it's probably not what you do but there are explanation vids for some bts songs since we're non-korean speakers and the bts rapline aren't lazy on lyricism so we lose a lot over mere translations. 🤧 "you nice, keep going."
The amount of pauses is sending me
Over the edge.
Hip hop lover. It shows their hiphop influence and growth. + cyphers!
swag to skill to swag..and if you stick with it, the raw heart and soul in between the lines.
The rice chest....there is an historical story about being locked in a rice chest. He draws on multiple cultural references in this song.
Llegué temprano 💜😊 gracias por su reacción!! I love it
Siento que les gustaría HIP HOP LOVER
Literally his every lyrics about His past and his experiences through their journey.... This man is a whole role model!
The music you hear in the VERY beginning is traditional Daechwita. The rest is a rap over a modernized version. DKDKTV has a great breakdown of the cultural references, but Bookish Theory also has a breakdown that focuses more on the video elements and references.
Suga my bias ❤❤❤❤
Шуга 😻 просто супер кайф 🥰
Like the reaction 😍 this song is amazing prefect🔥 the visual.. the story talen.. the lirick.. the beat.. the flow.. the everything awesome ..incredible .. suga is genius.. he got unique voice.. the best producer.. songwriter.. composer.. masterpiece.. multitalented.. fast rapper.. king swag.. king of stage.. love suga so much 🥰😍💜
Please check another agust’d MV .. agust d mv .. give it to me
CYPHER PART 1.2.3.4. If you search you will know. Iconic !
I definitely like that you don't need videos necessarily. It shows that you're into the Hip hop and music, whatever it is. This is an fire mv of course but Daechwita is also on my workout playlist. The thing about BTS is that they don't even need their mind-blowing videos and razor sharp choreo, but they do them anyway. The music stands on its own.
Try the explanation videos. Many others like the DKDK TV explanations.
Purple is Army color it's has meaning behind it 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜In case u guys see purple hearts it means I trust and love you forever
My first time seeing your reaction 💜
Thank you for your reaction to suga 💜
Daechwita is 10x deeper than it looks, DKDkTv explained the whole song perfectly, u can check that out
[2:00] Yeah those are headless bodies under the mats. Good spot! Not many get the reference.
The boxes have their heads. Mad King loves his heads.. You'll see.
[2:50] Daechwita is the marching type of music that is reserved to be played when the King is on the move, either in parades or on a war path.. This is a bit of both, Emperor is on the prowl ;)
[3:50] Rice chest is a historical reference (I'm sure dozens of ARMY have already explained where it comes from.) - there is actually really good explanations for BTS videos, that will make you understand them SO much better of you use them (Just keep away the Italian one with Spring Day, please, it is just way too overly dramatic.)
[4:43] Because your ear is not trained yet to pick up Korean, you can look up the lyrics, but there is playing with the languages (which usually is RM's specialty, but Suga can be surprisingly clever with it too) "I was born a tiger I ain't no weak pill popper like you" and then he goes into flexing thing - but in the flexing part there is Korean word that has a part that sounds like "pill" (it is actually pir) so he's having a play on how the words sound also, not just with the meaning in one language.
[7:25] After all, this producer works in a studio he named Genius Lab ;D (even though we might argue that there is another genius (or several others with Suga) in the group.. ;D)
[10:29] "He killed himself" or he killed another part of himself..
You need to know that he practically ran away from home, probably evoking his father to disinherit him, or at least close to it..
Another thing you need to know that this historical movie and tv-drama set is a real exact copy of the main palace of the last king of Korea.. Suga's (Min Yoongi, last name first) ancestral grandmother was the last empress of Korea. He started this music video in the exact copy of the throne, that by blood belongs to him - (there is several of these noble blooded people, and like the last king of the throne was not a Min. And there is another of those noble liners in this video (getting the *bleep* smacked out of him), as there is two other noble liners in BTS along Suga, these two happen also be related to each other, and they did not know each other before meeting in BTS and realizing they are of the same clan. (These clans are HUGE. Min clan is about 167,000 people.)
Anyway, he has thrown away his "royal blooded himself" and is saying here also that some of us are born into royal bloods but the real king is the one who does the work to earn the skills and the honor does not come without the obligations.
Agust D also has earlier song where he says "Min Yoongi is dead already (I killed him)" Min Yoongi is Agust D's/Suga's full name. That song is also about other things, but I'm taking it also partly how he was ready to throw away his former self, to the point of writing off all of his past, to pursue being a rapper against his parents opinions, and against all odds try to become skilled enough that his lyrics would touch somebody.
*
There is so much culturally in this MV and we are not even talking about why there is time travelling (AND Jin!) and how the car relates to this other (later) video, and how the car itself has a strong meaning..
Just know there is a LOT.
This is how BTS videos are. AND this is not EVEN a BTS video. This is Just a product of impeccable Genius Lab and it's crowned Emperor Min PD.
Excited to follow your BTS journey! 💜
3:39 note the fun cameo - Jin and Jungkook (fellow BTS band mates) fighting in the background.
Since you two like RM / rap, he just released a collab with Balming Tiger called "Sexy Nukim". Cyphers 1-4, Ddang (RM's stutter rap is chef's kiss), Mic Drop are also heavy diss tracks the boys wrote. RM Suga and Jhope all have 2 solo work albums (RM, Mono, Augstd, D-2, Hope World and Jack in the box). Their earlier work in 2013-2014 are heavily rap influenced and their lyrics literally saved lives. Enjoy the rabbit hole!
agust d 'agust d' is another one that is great
This is how I explain kpop: It's equal parts singing/rapping, dancing, beats, lyrics, and music video. If you skip any of those, you're cheating yourself out of the whole experience. My suggestion would be to do both the music video and the lyric video. And don't worry, ARMY enjoys long reaction videos!
And the gun is 1860 model colt revolver called "Army" 💜 he is really genius thanks
Great Job 👍😊🌹💜!!! On How You Were Able To Figure Alot Of It Out!! 😘😜💜 Ohhh! Yesss! Our Little King 👑 Can Spit Or What!
you guys are funny. I believe you when you say you like the music. I didn't expect to love their music as much as I do either. and I love hip hop but I also love pop and r&b and other genres so I guess I was bound to enjoy them 😂
Outro: Tear - Live Wembley for sure!
The Cyphers parts 1 to 4 are just so good. Suga, RM, and Jhope. BTS got and still do get lots of hate from jealous vile fans of other groups so they snap back in the Cyphers and rightly so. BTS were so badly mistreated it was a crime. They were not given the start that other groups were so they made their own way by being authentic and staying true to themselves. They used other platforms to connect with fans and achieved the legendary status they have now by themselves with Army right beside them. Some good informative videos for you are excelestes this is BTS an introduction and Who is the BTS ARMY. Then the Hardships one. You will understand more and feel very quickly become ARMY. We are almost 1 billion strong and not all screaming teenagers. I'm 58 years old UK army and I can't express enough how much I admire and respect them. I love all 7 of these precious men from South Korea. An avid Rock Music fan I discovered them at the start of the pandemic and my life has never been the same. They are my light and make me so happy. Its very important to not compare BTS to others they do not copy others they don't need to. They are all 7 associates of the Korean copyright association and all participate in writing and producing their songs. I love that you seem to like them. Army always respect those that respect BTS, we see everything and its amazing the smallest details. You will get massive increase in subscribers and some even send gifts.
Suga/Agust D.... Genius 💜💜💜💜
Suga is a great grandson of the last Korean queen. This information is taken from his biography.
Daechwita is the music played during military processions before the emperor. He sampled the music and the chorus is basically him saying play it loud he's the king coming through 😎
So excited to watch more of your reaction to bts😊
AgustD is SUGA from BTS. Real name is Yoongi ❣️ He is composer, producer and songwriter near being one of the fastest rappers in K-pop. U need to check his AGUSTD, Seasaw, The last, People songs. Also BTS Rapline 's Ddeang and Outro Tear where he is main producer with other Rappers RM and JHope.
Also Chypers series CHYPERS 1.2.3.4 .. Also UGH live performance 👌 I am sure you will enjoy it
Can't wait for you to react to their underrated songs, my favorite 134340 or pluto, coffe, we on, and louder than bomb,
I cant say I have a least favorite BTS song, because even their underrated songs are soooo good. At this point, it would be personal preference, some songs might not come off as good to others as it is to me. But they are very versatile, and with a discography as vast as theirs, it might take time before you can listen to a majority of their songs. Love the reaction by the way! 💖👋🏻
Love your reactions :D Don't stop joking, be yourself it makes those videos better
Here is a recommendation for you. This one is a performance video with songs from their PROOF anthology album released on June 10, 2022. There are three songs, one is an older unofficial song that was released officially on their Proof album, and then two new ones, and they had a special guest as well (Anderson Paak on drums). This was in California they performed in April, when they came to the U.S. for the Grammy's, and their Las Vegas 4 day sold out stadium concert series. You might need to go into settings to choose English subs. There is also a conversation they had after the second song about their PROOF album and memories. This was released on Their 9 year anniversary.
*Don't forget to turn on closed captions and go into settings to choose the English subs*
BTS 'Proof' Live (Born Singer, Yet To Come, For Youth) w/English subs - ruclips.net/video/9sJ_I1lHpps/видео.html
We LOVE their music videos because it's a different experience. They are very talented and artistic, and they have their hands in every aspect of their art. They are performance artists, so we prefer live performances if possible. They thrive on stage, and their vocals, rap skills, and choreography are on another level when they are performing for ARMY's. You will see what we mean eventually when you react to a live concert or music show, or award show. ARMY's become part of the performance. Anyway, I will link you the ARSON video, please react to it.

The Grammys were in Vegas .. and the last video was shot in Vegas as well. No CA.
@@Chameleon_Halo I do know the Grammy's were in Vegas. I was told this was in California. If you say it was in Vegas, then maybe it was. But this was definitely before their concert series in Vegas, and it was released on June 13.
I love your reaction to this, he killed his old self, truly it is worth to watch DKDKTV explanation. You did great ;)
I like that you're giving this a chance. All of it doesn't have to be your favorite but I appreciate it when people give it a chance and don't immediately hate on stuff because they have some weird conception of it that might not even be true. Thank you for your reaction!
They take a lot of inspiration from American rappers and hip hop but then add in their own culture and word play. They did a show called American Hustle life with Tony Jones and Coolio. You all should check that out! They really test their knowledge and love for the hip hop/rap culture.
Fun fact: the gun that Suga (or Agust D) used is called Colt m1860 Army. So he also is referencing the fans ARMY.
Fun fact #2: two other members where in the MV. They where the ones fake fighting behind him at the beginning.
What's really going to blow your mind is the way they will purposefully switch between Korean and English and find words in both languages that make sense contextually and sonically. You can see this at its best, in my opinion at least, in their Cyphers. Particularly with RM, who is fluent in English. I love seeing musicians discover these guys - I appreciate the knowledge you can bring so I can learn something new, so thanks for doing these reactions!
There's some videos made by DKTV that have an explained by a korean series, that would be helpful in breaking down some of the cultural nuances a lot of bts songs have. I highly recommend watching even if its not for reactions it makes the songs 10x more cooler having more context behind them especially with songs like this that have a lot more than you can catch if you don't have more cultural info about korea.

You must also check out their debut song No More Dreams from 2013 & We are Bulletproof part 2
They were so young Jungkook was just 15 at that time and Jin the oldest was 20.
By the way "BTS," actually stands for the words, "Bangtan Sonyeondan," which translates to mean "Bulletproof Boy Scouts." 'Bangtan’ means to be resistant to bullets, so it means to block out stereotypes, criticisms, and expectations that aim on adolescents like bullets, to preserve the values and ideal of today’s adolescents,"

I enjoy how you try to break down and analyze the lyrics and mv and how the lines are delivered all at the same time. It's a lot to take in in just one go, so I agree with some suggesting you watch the lyric video first and then the mv. And you can even react to a live performance after, I wouldn't mind that 🙂
His solo mixtape is great d-1 and D-2,I can recommend you also his August D song, and the Last or First Love :)Love them so much!
Agust D (also known as SUGA) is ranked as one of the most influential producers and songwriters in South Korea, who won multiple awards over the past few years, including best producer. He debuted at #9 on Billboard Hot 100 Songwriters Chart. He became the first male soloist in history to have a song and album reach No.1 on iTunes in 100 countries each. He is ranked No.1 most streamed Korean male soloist globally in 2021 on Spotify. His mixtape "D-2" debuted at #11 on Billboard 200 and it is the most streamed album by a Korean soloist. And there is just a few of his achievements.
He has two self-produced mixtapes: "Agust D" (2016) and "D-2" (2020), which broke several records on music charts worldwide. He uses his platform to talk about important topics and most of his lyrics touch such subjects as mental health, social issues, the contrast between dreams and reality, etc.
To put this simply, in Daechwita MV king is his past self. The other one is his present self. So he shot his past self. "Daechwita" is a genre of Korean traditional military music, which was played to announce the arrival of king.
He was also working as producer for brand like Samsung.
I recommend you to check out (Agust D, Agust D) (Agust D, What do you think)
Fun Fact: Yoongi(Suga) has a royal blood in his body. His great great great grandmother is the very last empress of Korea. He’s a member of the loyal family in Korea.
SUGA is from a town called Daegu. That is why it is AUGUST-D
