To me there’s 3 interpretations of this song. 1) on surface level, like you said, is pretty straight forward. They’re talking about a toxic romantic relationship with someone else 2) this is fake love towards yourself. Changing yourself to fit the standards of other people to the point you don’t even know who you are anymore 3) in their book, BTS said during this time they were going through a burn out. They were so exhausted, but they still put on a smile and continued to go on stage pretending everything was ok. And the fandom kept growing and so many people were saying how much they love BTS. But if BTS was struggling but didn’t show this side to the fans, do the fans actually love them? Or the personna of them?!?! Bts lyrics can go really deep. It takes some getting used to. But once you realize how deep it goes, it’s like you’ve unlocked a part of your brain.
@@jennydinong1935 1. fake love between two people 2. fake love towards yourself 3. armys showing fake love to bts (only loving them as idols, and not as people)
It's surprising you were able to connect details of their choreography to the song with just those short snippets. Fake Love choreo is so good - it does have the doll choreo as well as "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" motifs which is also expressed in that art piece behind them
Can't wait for you to react to Suga's rap in solo projects! I forgot your names, but the brother on the right particularly will surely enjoy the Daeschwita, Haegum, and Amygdala trilogy by Suga. It should be experienced in order, because it's a whole vibe and tells Suga's life story. Not only his, but the lives of all K-Pop 'idols' to an extent. Actually BTS is a genre of its own in many ways. Saying 'Pop' doesn't really summarize the depth and breadth of it. So many layers.
I don't think his life is anything like other idols. Look up his story, or tidbits of it. Mother's heart attack the month he was born, alcoholic father, abuse, left home young to the rough underground? Depression, ocd, and extreme social anxiety to the point of thinking of suicide? PTSD for sure. At least one psychiatric stay. A torn ligament left untreated and dancing with it for 8 years. One top of that he is a musical genius with credits on 2/3 of BTS's music. He no doubt got through it because his six brothers loved him, and there is no other group that loves each other like BTS does because they have been through more hardship, and pioneered more success, than any other group out there. Please don't generalize using Suga. There are no idols even close.
One thing BTS does with their music is they mostly produce songs and albums based on their own life experiences and what they are dealing with at the time. If you go back and check their discography you will see their albums all reflect various growing pains and how they dealt with it. That’s why their songs come across as so genuine and relatable to many people as some might be going through the similar things or they went through the same experiences. True and one of a kind artists 💜
Snickers, fire and water are linked to the different characters in their fictional storyline called BU or Bangtan Universe, running through their songs since 2015 and their album series "The Most Beautiful Moments in Life" (or HYYH - Hwa-yang-yeonhwa)
17:05 you completely understood the concept and what they were trying to portray, 'fake love' is part of their love yourself album trilogy. The first album is 'love yourself: her' and the songs are about this "perfect love" and how great it feels at first, then in the second album 'love yourself: tear' they realize they are losing themselves and the illusion of " perfect love" is slowly fading, then in the final album 'love yourself: answer' you realize that you can love no one if you don't love yourself first 💜
The chreo covering mouth, eyes & ears is same as the back statute meaning See no evil, Hear no evil & Speak no evil. They all had traumas from their past in the BU and water fall, fire, chocolate bars.... are from the storyline. The song is not only about the relationship between man & woman but also between you & parents, you & friends and you & yourself... and telling us to be true to youself.
The pause in the music in the middle and the scenes with water, fire, etc have to do with the Bangtan Universe storyline that runs through many BTS videos starting with I Need U.
Festa 2021, I think it will give you a chance to see the variety of what the boys can do, thank you very much for reacting to BTS, greetings from Barcelona 💜
I agree! In this video you can see each member singing and rapping more clearly. So far the filmmaker has not been able to see Jin and Jimin in detail.
Yes the choreo is linked to the line, the point of this song is the ‘puppet’ choreography. That and the ‘see no evil, hear no evil and speak no evil’ thing. You should watch Fake love live performances preferably from Mama 2018 in Japan. Also this MV is part of their BU (BTS Universe) storyline. So it might not make sense to you. Fun fact: most of the effects in the MV are real. This was made with minimal CG.
The song I’m obsessed now is The Truth Untold for the story the lyrics tell and the way the vocal line sings it. The MV for it doesn’t do much for me but I love the live version
Thx for doing this! I love your format. The way you analyse the video and discuss your opinions. Great job! Can't wait for the next reaction. Also, you should watch and react to Run BTS. You see them in their comedic selves. They are truly hilarious. An army commented that once you've seen Run BTS, you don't need to see any other comedy series. These 7 precious boys/guys are a comedic act in and of themselves!! 💜
Yeeeees😂 thank you for the reaction, you guys are my favourite reactors from now on💜 Just subscribed💜 And please react to the bangtan 7 guide by Taylor Mari, it would be so cute and fun seeing your brother's reaction to it💜💜
I think Dynamite was a lot of the world's first exposure to BTS. It was the first English song I believe. Also, Butter came along around that time. They were both 'Pandemic' era, when the world was basically shut down. They were majorly disappointed to not be able to perform in concerts for that time. But, to bolster the mood of fans, they didn't waver, just kept on. They even performed on a stage a couple of times, so the fans could feel more like it was concert even though there weren't any audience except video views.
Waste it on me was their first all english song, even though it's not all the members (they promoted it like that too). DNA was their western breakthrough in general with bbmas, etc. They gained more and more fans naturally after each cb (BWL was rly big) that came afterwards and then Dynamite was rly the song that rly made them global pop icons. (Didn't mean to correct you or anything, just wanted to mention it)
No its not pandemic era. Its the Be Era. We got dynamite on that album too. They just wanted to Be I guess. The pandemic was be but they still had their sense of being and didn’t let it swallow them even though they got depressed esp the first few months of the pandemics. This is one reason I’m adverse to the pandemic era thing and this is one of the few times I’ve heard it referred to as such. BTS eras are named by their albums. For them to overcome that and us to and have a part of their music catalogue be grouped as pandemic era doesn’t really mesh well with their past eras, nor does it go with their reasons of the album and song- hope, joy, etc Then we had the Butter era.
@@YmccabePlease correct me I'm wrong, but I think (although I'm beginning to doubt myself) that 'Life Goes On' was a lockdown period piece. Everything in the MAMA video performance of it looks like the entire world was basically at a standstill, then the color comes back and everything seems to activate fully. I'm not good at writing so I'm getting a lot of misunderstanding.
Right in the beginning Jin was trying his best to protect that flower (pretty sure that symbolizes his love) but when all hell break lose. His love become worthless like sand/dust. JK later pickup those sand but still sees something beautiful in those sand(like flower petals).
i love that you guys focused on the lyrics and choreo and even details in the video that others don’t usually see at first watch. reactors often dismiss things like that so thank you 🙏 loved the reaction 💜
You are on track with the choreography looking like dolls. There are a couple videos where hope and jimin talk about the moves. They are marionettes and when they fall it’s their strings getting cut.
Yes the comment at the end hit the nail on the head. In K-Pop you are supposed to be perfect but BTS said no we are not we are human just like everyone else and have shortcomings too. This is one of the reasons ARMY loves them so much they can be vulnerable and show that they too struggle with some of the same things we do. They have pushed taboo subjects and still keep going even with the backlash. The lyrics are deep and thoughtful. Their producer told them to write what they know and care about and they do.
I love your reactions and transparency talk before. And especially that you’re truly unpacking the meaning of the lyrics. For me the lyrics were about the members faking their love of performing when they were in so much pain and struggling with exhaustion. There was a period when they actually contemplating disbanding.
I am so glad I am here. You are both authentic in understanding or trying to understand BTS as a group and I am so glad you found them (to the one speaking on the left of my screen) and I am glad you are open and not judgemental (to the one on the right of my screen). Laid back, honest, sincere. That's what BTS embodies. Thank you. Look forward to more. You also don't rush it, which is great. Each reaction and sharing of thoughts is just good timing. Take care, till we meet again.
The candy bar scene with J Hope is actually sad in reality. It relates to the BU where J Hope's "mother" abandoned him at the fairground after telling him to close his eyes and giving him a candy bar.
The BU storyline is fictional. when you write "sad in reality", your comment might lead to new readers (non-ARMY) to misinterpret that his storyline is "real". Please consider rephrasing it.
Yes!! Their transparency about their imperfections and struggles is one of the things we love about them. They’ve helped so many ARMY who have gone through similar struggles. We love Their “perfect imperfections.”
They switch the central spot to match the vocals, this makes their choreography really interesting and constantly flowing ❤ if you like jimins dancing then check out ‘set me free part 2’, hope you enjoy
The rock version of Fake Love is amazing! I love when they use live bands and have different arrangements to their songs. It brings so much fun to hear their songs in so many different genres
I have a specific interpretation for this song that it was directed at the "fans". They love BTS as long as they act exactly how they want, but if they do something different from what is expected, they are attacked. This is represented by the line about fake love. Also, in the part of the glass where it says save me, if you turn it upside down the phrase becomes "I'm Fine". The doll's phrase also matches this. In fact, the whole song matches this.
This is the end of the BANGTANG Universe Story line that runs on most of the MV’s (24 in total starting from the song I need you) and is also link to a Webtoon series by BTS
I would genuinely love to see you guys do a storyline dive. From this era, for me, you can often think of the "characters" in the video as being different aspects of the same person, which can be either Jin or Jungkook, who are often shown outside of the timeline and looking in. There is a lot nonlinear motion going on, where the main character looks down on different aspects of his personality, while V represents the subconscious who cannot get his own message and needs out to the rest of the organism (he's getting messages from all the devices on the wall, but his own phones dissolves into sand). Sorry, that went on longer than I intended. Long-term, it often feels useful to do a solo video for each of the members before progressing, so you can get an idea of unique faces and voices. I feel like it makes me appreciate the whole group more when you see the various talents come together.
The phone part with V had to do with the BU when he tried to call RM when he needed help and RM didn't answer his phone. In other words you only have yourself to rely on and can't depend on someone to bail you out.
I just started watching the breakdown of the BU and it blows my mind. Whomever planned that out and involved all the videos, etc., is on the same level as Kevin Feige (Marvel). It's expansive and mind blowing. I don't think these guys should watch the BU breakdown until they've watched more MVs so that they can remember having prior seen the video clips during an earlier reaction.
Another great reaction!! I especially love how you both connect to the lyrics and give personal anecdotes bc that’s honestly how most ARMY becomes ARMY, and how we relate to one another and tannies. We don’t often get to see this side of reactors so thank you for being open. Looking fwd to more and you diving into some of the solo projects as well. 💜💜
I just watched the first 2 videos and here was the third one! I like honest reactions and you seem like that! ❤💜 Personally, I also love that people's image of BTS and kpop in general is more "dynamite style". I also love Dynamite, but there is so much more and under the term kpop goes so many different styles of music. In fact, before BTS I listened to a lot of rap music. I discovered BTS as a group because I first discovered AgustD's first album. He is my bias still.
Fake Love is one of the songs of BTS that speaks most in their lyrics and music as a group, self-love it is. Before you can give genuine love you've got to love yourself first by being true to themselves and by being be yourself.
Omg that’s exactly how I got into BTS!! Well not the living room scene 🤣🤣 but it was September 2020.. got hooked and never looked back!!! I heard about BTS before but had the same stereotype as a lot of people … wasn’t not into “K-pop and pretty boys”. As I was going through BTS I grew to understand that they were talented, hardworking and humble guys!!
Pls here their louder than bombs , film out , your eyes tell live its heavenly magical The their record breaker dynamite , butter On with legendrical dance break
Thank you both for a great reaction 👏 I enjoy how you both take time out to analyse and voice your individual perspective on their songs and respecting each other for it, especially when you’re both at different stages of discovering BTS 👏 It’s always enjoyable to watch a new reactor learn about BTS. You guys are not here for the views or clout, but have that genuine interest in BTS and their art. Keep ‘em coming. I’m here for it 🙌🏽 New sub right here!
I also became army in 2020, I heard black swan on tiktok and fell so quick haha, dynamite was my first comeback, it was so fun, can’t wait for their big return in 2025
Also, the sand was the crumbled relationship. What flew up were cherry blossoms. In k-dramas, cherry blossoms falling are a sign of romance. Here, cherry blossoms floating up is a sign the relationship is blowing away. The water on the other side signifies drowning in the relationship, the fire means totally consumed, presumably dead and burned to ash. But who or what? The guy in the relationship? Or just the relationship. Btw, it was a real fire, just blown up in the film editing. Suga's the master of fire.
I subscribed to your site because of your BTS reactions! I really appreciate your analyses. you should definitely watch their concerts and dance practices. they are phenomenal. Borahe 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I’ve been a fan since 2014. Got in early due to Korean friends way before they were truly global and I still listen to them daily and watch their varieties shows etc. First discovered Big Bang who I love then got into BTS. Hoping they will have a concert in Australia. Seeing Taeyang from Big Bang in November in Sydney. Think I only have 2 non BTS, Big Bang songs on my playlist
Thank you guys I enjoyed your reaction 😍 i have an idea How about watching MV and then live performance so you can focus on the words and then on the dance I hope you watch the live performance it is much better They're really great at live performance. 🔥🔥
Wow amazing you picked up on the marionette doll thing connected to the lyrics, I only fully realized it on their love performance of it. Was a full time alt-rock, goth rock, some pop-rock, classic, opera, musical chick with a dash of R&B/Jazz and got into BTS because of a happenstance watch on Grammy's when they performed Seoul town road. Had a full anti relationship with KPop with it sounding generically similar. Heard Taehyung's distinctive tone and soulful baritone, was hooked since then.
This mv is a part of the bangtan universe or bu a fictional storyline that runs through bts albums which started with the most beautiful moment in life part 1 album
man i never get tired of watching someone fall down the rabbit hole amidst the over saturation of reactors on youtube it's so painfully obvious when someone watches bts stuff simply because their audience told them to and it gets views/comments vs someone who is genuinely intrigued and interested very very fun to watch hehehhee
I don't know if you already know about this but their MVs and discographies from 2016-2017 if you watch it in order can make up a whole story line. You'll appreciate this MV more if you know about that. all the solo shots from this mv has something to do with the story. it's like an alternate universe
2:00 I agree with that take on pop music. I think because I used to mainly listen to mainstream music as a teen (Sadly because that's all I knew about music at that time) nowadays I find myself wanting to listen to lot of different genres and music and explore different artists. Though dynamite is pure pop, its done in a way that just makes it sound soooo good and well done. It's kinda impossible not to like it. It's a feel good anthem and just lifts your spirits.
You seem understood their concept so quick after just a couple of videos. You cant watch BTS music video and reading lyric at the same time. Other wise you are missing out the visual part which is so beautiful. 👍👍👍👍👍
the reaction was lit but what's weird is that i got into BTS the EXACT SAME WAY that YOU shared in the video. It was late 2020 like august or September and i was just chilling in my room and then i heard this dope melody from the other room with heavenly vocals and i went out to see my brother watching dynamite by BTS.
In my opinion their whole concept is being honest and sing about topics and things that they are going through or thinking about. Love yourself concept was at a time when they too were trying to come to terms with the idea of self love. If you watch their videos, listen to their music you can appreciate the lyrics more because you can actually see in the behind the scenes videos their personal growth and inspiration for each album.
Yes. But Fake love is about self fake love and also doyble meaning: about fake love of some kind of ARMY who draw them like typical idols who is perfect in everything what they do and never cry, never do any mistakes, dont drink, dont smoke, dont have sex with girls, dont fall in love with girls. Its also about ARMY who perceives them as dolls that can be controlled, ARMY that can tell them any demands
Fake Love é uma música que narra a luta interna de alguém que, por amor, está disposto a esconder suas verdadeiras emoções e a se transformar em outra pessoa, apenas para satisfazer o parceiro. Expressa, também, um arrependimento por ter construído uma versão de si mesmo baseada em mentiras, apenas para ser amado, essa atitude leva a um sentimento de alienação e perda de identidade, culminando na constatação de que o amor que sentiam era falso e que a construção desse falso eu gera arrependimento e o sentimento de ter perdido sua própria identidade. É uma mensagem sobre a importância de manter a própria identidade e a busca por um amor que seja verdadeiro e recíproco. Explora temas complexos como autenticidade, sacrifício pessoal e a natureza do amor. BTS e suas músicas nunca desapontam em termos de profundidade, através de imagens e metáforas inteligentes. 💜🇧🇷

The candy bar scene with J Hope is actually sad in reality. It relates to the BU where J Hope's "mother" abandoned him at the fairground after telling him to close his eyes and giving him a candy bar.
When you say "sad in reality" they might think this really happened to Jhope. Maybe you should clarify.
To clarify this is a reference to a fictional storyline that spans multiple albums, videos, notes, and even a video game.

Love both your discussions on your interpretation of MV and lyrics 💜
The rock version of Fake Love is amazing! I love when they use live bands and have different arrangements to their songs. It brings so much fun to hear their songs in so many different genres
I think the staff literally build the sets from scratch,its originally a warehouse/empty building,they spent 3 months to finish it
I have a specific interpretation for this song that it was directed at the "fans". They love BTS as long as they act exactly how they want, but if they do something different from what is expected, they are attacked. This is represented by the line about fake love. Also, in the part of the glass where it says save me, if you turn it upside down the phrase becomes "I'm Fine". The doll's phrase also matches this. In fact, the whole song matches this.
Can't wait for the reaction one the other songs! Great video!!
This is the end of the BANGTANG Universe Story line that runs on most of the MV’s (24 in total starting from the song I need you) and is also link to a Webtoon series by BTS
The hand at the end is meant to be the flower that can't bloom in a dream that can't come true
I would genuinely love to see you guys do a storyline dive. From this era, for me, you can often think of the "characters" in the video as being different aspects of the same person, which can be either Jin or Jungkook, who are often shown outside of the timeline and looking in. There is a lot nonlinear motion going on, where the main character looks down on different aspects of his personality, while V represents the subconscious who cannot get his own message and needs out to the rest of the organism (he's getting messages from all the devices on the wall, but his own phones dissolves into sand).
Sorry, that went on longer than I intended. Long-term, it often feels useful to do a solo video for each of the members before progressing, so you can get an idea of unique faces and voices. I feel like it makes me appreciate the whole group more when you see the various talents come together.
Agreed. I want it too
The phone part with V had to do with the BU when he tried to call RM when he needed help and RM didn't answer his phone. In other words you only have yourself to rely on and can't depend on someone to bail you out.
I just started watching the breakdown of the BU and it blows my mind. Whomever planned that out and involved all the videos, etc., is on the same level as Kevin Feige (Marvel). It's expansive and mind blowing. I don't think these guys should watch the BU breakdown until they've watched more MVs so that they can remember having prior seen the video clips during an earlier reaction.
I really enjoyed your guy’s reaction and how you interpreted the whole mv. You guys even made me realize something’s I had never noticed, great job!!
So cool to find these guys. He binged watch haha, he fell in! 😅
спасибо за реакцию, продолжайте ❤
Another great reaction!! I especially love how you both connect to the lyrics and give personal anecdotes bc that’s honestly how most ARMY becomes ARMY, and how we relate to one another and tannies. We don’t often get to see this side of reactors so thank you for being open. Looking fwd to more and you diving into some of the solo projects as well. 💜💜
Haha a fellow reaction binger! Love your origin story
I just watched the first 2 videos and here was the third one! I like honest reactions and you seem like that! ❤💜
Personally, I also love that people's image of BTS and kpop in general is more "dynamite style". I also love Dynamite, but there is so much more and under the term kpop goes so many different styles of music. In fact, before BTS I listened to a lot of rap music. I discovered BTS as a group because I first discovered AgustD's first album. He is my bias still.
Fake Love is one of the songs of BTS that speaks most in their lyrics and music as a group, self-love it is. Before you can give genuine love you've got to love yourself first by being true to themselves and by being be yourself.
I love your reactions. I have been waiting for the video. I hope you will upload a lot of reactions 💜💜💜
I loved these two boys and their reactions, and how handsome the boy in the blue shirt is🤭🥰💜
🫶🏻
Love the reaction guys , keep going
Omg that’s exactly how I got into BTS!! Well not the living room scene 🤣🤣 but it was September 2020.. got hooked and never looked back!!! I heard about BTS before but had the same stereotype as a lot of people … wasn’t not into “K-pop and pretty boys”. As I was going through BTS I grew to understand that they were talented, hardworking and humble guys!!
Also, great lighting upgrade! You both have beautiful eyes
fake love is a song about losing ones's self to please another in order to gain their love..
When I see an honest reactions, i’ll hit that like button & deserved my subscription. Love and support from 🇲🇾💜 #BORAHAE

You are my new go to !
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and observations. They are always very humble and introspective. 💜
Pls here their louder than bombs , film out , your eyes tell live its heavenly magical
The their record breaker dynamite , butter
On with legendrical dance break
Thank you both for a great reaction 👏 I enjoy how you both take time out to analyse and voice your individual perspective on their songs and respecting each other for it, especially when you’re both at different stages of discovering BTS 👏 It’s always enjoyable to watch a new reactor learn about BTS. You guys are not here for the views or clout, but have that genuine interest in BTS and their art. Keep ‘em coming. I’m here for it 🙌🏽 New sub right here!
Please update soon I really can't wait😊😊😊
I also became army in 2020, I heard black swan on tiktok and fell so quick haha, dynamite was my first comeback, it was so fun, can’t wait for their big return in 2025
Also, the sand was the crumbled relationship. What flew up were cherry blossoms. In k-dramas, cherry blossoms falling are a sign of romance. Here, cherry blossoms floating up is a sign the relationship is blowing away. The water on the other side signifies drowning in the relationship, the fire means totally consumed, presumably dead and burned to ash. But who or what? The guy in the relationship? Or just the relationship. Btw, it was a real fire, just blown up in the film editing. Suga's the master of fire.
Jimin "Who" MV.
It's exciting to introduce bulletproofing.
I subscribed to your site because of your BTS reactions! I really appreciate your analyses. you should definitely watch their concerts and dance practices. they are phenomenal. Borahe 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I can't wait your next reaction I really enjoy it❤ I am big fan of BTS
Love your fresh perspective
I’ve been a fan since 2014. Got in early due to Korean friends way before they were truly global and I still listen to them daily and watch their varieties shows etc. First discovered Big Bang who I love then got into BTS. Hoping they will have a concert in Australia. Seeing Taeyang from Big Bang in November in Sydney. Think I only have 2 non BTS, Big Bang songs on my playlist
This song is part of the BTS universe and each element in the video is not a coincidence, everything has a story and a reason
I LOVE YOU JIMIN ❤WHO
I like your reactions to the first 3 bts songs that you’ve listened to. New subscriber here.
There are videos of how the video was done your brother will appreciate it as a film maker with Love from Spain 🇪🇸
Thank you guys I enjoyed your reaction 😍
i have an idea
How about watching MV and then live performance so you can focus on the words and then on the dance I hope you watch the live performance it is much better They're really great at live performance. 🔥🔥
Wow amazing you picked up on the marionette doll thing connected to the lyrics, I only fully realized it on their love performance of it. Was a full time alt-rock, goth rock, some pop-rock, classic, opera, musical chick with a dash of R&B/Jazz and got into BTS because of a happenstance watch on Grammy's when they performed Seoul town road. Had a full anti relationship with KPop with it sounding generically similar. Heard Taehyung's distinctive tone and soulful baritone, was hooked since then.
Thanks for the reaction ,guys ❤️🩹🫂
OMG YOU GOTTA SHOW HIM 'ON' (but the mv ofc)
This mv is a part of the bangtan universe or bu a fictional storyline that runs through bts albums which started with the most beautiful moment in life part 1 album
Love the reactions ❤❤❤❤
man i never get tired of watching someone fall down the rabbit hole
amidst the over saturation of reactors on youtube it's so painfully obvious when someone watches bts stuff simply because their audience told them to and it gets views/comments vs someone who is genuinely intrigued and interested
very very fun to watch hehehhee
Honestly you guys are amazing ❤
I don't know if you already know about this but their MVs and discographies from 2016-2017 if you watch it in order can make up a whole story line. You'll appreciate this MV more if you know about that. all the solo shots from this mv has something to do with the story. it's like an alternate universe
I love this MV.
2:00 I agree with that take on pop music. I think because I used to mainly listen to mainstream music as a teen (Sadly because that's all I knew about music at that time) nowadays I find myself wanting to listen to lot of different genres and music and explore different artists.
Though dynamite is pure pop, its done in a way that just makes it sound soooo good and well done. It's kinda impossible not to like it. It's a feel good anthem and just lifts your spirits.
I can’t wait to see you react to Blood, Sweat and Tears, DNA and Idol
You seem understood their concept so quick after just a couple of videos. You cant watch BTS music video and reading lyric at the same time. Other wise you are missing out the visual part which is so beautiful. 👍👍👍👍👍
Hoping that Outro: Tear was the rap line song you were eluding to.
All bts song is so meaningful...💜💜💜
For me the sands of time are spilled on the foor and the
flower petals float away. Flowers are used alot in the BTS lexicon of symbology
the reaction was lit but what's weird is that i got into BTS the EXACT SAME WAY that YOU shared in the video. It was late 2020 like august or September and i was just chilling in my room and then i heard this dope melody from the other room with heavenly vocals and i went out to see my brother watching dynamite by BTS.
Thank you for the reaction!
In my opinion their whole concept is being honest and sing about topics and things that they are going through or thinking about. Love yourself concept was at a time when they too were trying to come to terms with the idea of self love. If you watch their videos, listen to their music you can appreciate the lyrics more because you can actually see in the behind the scenes videos their personal growth and inspiration for each album.
Yes. But Fake love is about self fake love and also doyble meaning: about fake love of some kind of ARMY who draw them like typical idols who is perfect in everything what they do and never cry, never do any mistakes, dont drink, dont smoke, dont have sex with girls, dont fall in love with girls. Its also about ARMY who perceives them as dolls that can be controlled, ARMY that can tell them any demands
Well said 💜
Bts 'RUN' i like it
Fake Love é uma música que narra a luta interna de alguém que, por amor, está disposto a esconder suas verdadeiras emoções e a se transformar em outra pessoa, apenas para satisfazer o parceiro. Expressa, também, um arrependimento por ter construído uma versão de si mesmo baseada em mentiras, apenas para ser amado, essa atitude leva a um sentimento de alienação e perda de identidade, culminando na constatação de que o amor que sentiam era falso e que a construção desse falso eu gera arrependimento e o sentimento de ter perdido sua própria identidade. É uma mensagem sobre a importância de manter a própria identidade e a busca por um amor que seja verdadeiro e recíproco. Explora temas complexos como autenticidade, sacrifício pessoal e a natureza do amor. BTS e suas músicas nunca desapontam em termos de profundidade, através de imagens e metáforas inteligentes. 💜🇧🇷
omg you're a lockdown army too 😯😯 ugh fine I'll subscribe 😌
Felicitări BTS cei mai talentați frumoși perfecți tare dor de ei ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
