We filmed these reactions in 2017; the weekend before BTS Spring Day was released. I recently organized the CMR schedule so that the WINGS solo reactions will be posted in 2018 and I cannot/will not move them up any sooner.
However!!!! I have recorded Yunyi and Kevin's reactions to them already! If you want to watch their COMPLETE reactions to ALL 7 solos, you can watch them right now by becoming a patron on patreon: / reacttothek

Also, none of us are PROFESSIONAL musicians. So if you come here for a strict breakdown/analysis of the music, you won’t be getting that.This is strictly my conservatory musician friends taking time in their schedule to watch kpop for fun, and throw in any musical comments that come into their mind! Also please do not complain about any "boring" reactions...some of the musicians have blank faces since they are concentrating so deeply on analyzing the music.

If I were to watch all the patreon videos in the future ( like 3 to 4 years) because i have no money now , will it still be available ?

'BTS is my favourite group'
Yunyi - 2017
Rachel Law (It's Yunyi) 😫
Ella Aldaz sorry my bad😥 i make mistakes when too excited
Don't worry. Hahaha. It's all good
"the balls keep changing"
-peyton, 2017
yea i love how he used balls instead of circles xD
That one comment that got us all snorting lmao
"it's hard"
- shimon, 2017
BTS ARMY Recruiter #5501 shimon knows our struggle
JinSuNamHopeVMinKook Simon having breakdown 😂😂 we relate
"So funky but depressing"
Yes, welcome to K-pop
welcome to BTS
Only BTS does this type of music, even the K-pop Industry knows that BTS is a Special group like nothing can replace them. I'm not a deep kpop fan but correct me if i'm wrong. I think that only BTS crossovers their musics/mv's since debut until now.. BTS has a story since they created as a kpop group and that is what makes them "Special" unlike the other kpop groups like after they debut they just make random musics & random stories.. look I know what a "kpop music" is cause I know legendary kpop groups like Suju, Wonder Girls, SNSD, Shinee etc. but when BTS came out I bet that they will be different like they are escaping kpop music and just make their "own" music and that's what they did...
It was 'Welcome to BTS' but then labels xerox it and now becomes 'Welcome to Kpop'
@@jymcrngl lol 😂
The snickers thing is actually a reference to his childhood because whenever his mom would leave somewhere he'd be sad and she always gave him a snickers.
And also, do notice that the snickers ads always mentioned "energy", so he actually needs energy to survive. And his mum gave him a snickers, wanting him to live on without her
First time I watch this (not here) I thought of a commercial for Snickers and its slogan, about you're not being yourself when you're hungry. Especially since he pulled the candy bar out of his pocket along with the pills, but ate the candy instead of taking the pills.
Now, reading your comment about the amusement park and him laying on the candy bars, I have a better understanding about that scene in that video.
guys, the snickers in Fake Love
Why they're my favorite reactioners:
1. no fangirls screaming
2. no one actually cares about their looks
3. you are actually reacting
4. they try to decipher everything just like how real fans do
5. and the music-related comments 👏👏
Thank you!!!!
I agree but one thing that bugs me is that they often talk over it and might miss some important details
True
I love how they geek out abt music. It is one of my fave things abt them
Jin's MV is the best
Сабина Сафарова i agree !also is my favorite solo 😭❤
my bias slaying 💖💖
*Awake is my favorite one*
after that *Lie* 💖
Being Arooj no way he is the most handsome guy❤
Yes he is *Worldwide handsome* ❤❤
Being Arooj yeeeeaaaaah💁🏿
Ever since the wings album was released Jin's Awake has been my favorite solo. I swear even till today I have Awake on repeat.
WIDE AWAKE WIDE AWAKE WIDE AWAKE
Jay Windbreaker Jimin's Lie is my favorite. I love singing it, dancing to it (I'm learning the dance), and just jamming to it. ots such an amazing song and his voice is so beautiful and angelic.
Jay Windbreaker song of my life :)
Jay Windbreaker this is like my 10th time listening to awake through a reaction vid and I still get goosebumps
I'm torn between Jin's AWAKE (my first bias) and Jimin's LIE (my bias wrecker) as my favorite solo
I like that they seem to really appriciate Jin's song... the producers of Big Hit says Jin struggled alot, since he never really produced before.... it's nice that his work pays off....
One thing is army seeing his charm and loving it, but having people who actually know a little about music appriciate it, its great
아이스 exactly what I was thinking. Jin is amazing.

Been an army for two years and still havent figured out shit. All I know is that i like their music
Bungtan I’ve watched several theory videos and they make sense. It’s still mind blowing because nobody actually confirmed these theories but sometimes all of them make sense. If you take better look to the videos that form the storyline and those theories too all this make sense. You can connect them in many different ways.
Oof I only understand now they released a webtoon about it 😅
Lol
.. I understand now
cause big hit and lico (i don't really know the name sry) did a webtoon about it
Haha same
I wish you had mentioned how Jhope's pills were placebos, the sign sheet shown at the start says that his prescription is a placebo and what his mental illness is; it's something to do with not being sick but making yourself sick because you believe you are, Idk it's interesting and you can link it to what happens in the video
The placebo effect, yes👌🏻
In the prescription is written his syndrome (I do not remember the name right now). That syndrome is -mostly- when the mothers make their children believe they are sick, but they are not.
Munchausen by proxy, that is when somebody else tells you you are sick to the point that you believe it.
Yumiko Ruiz Lopez I know this is off topic, but its just like the girl from the book everything, everything by Nicola yoon
Chi I wanted to read that book. *Now I want to read it even more, because now I know it talks about a good topic* That was the biggest spoiler I've ever get. *I didn't even watch the movie*
"Diminished 7th going to a minor 1" I about fell over when I heard that! It so beautifully illustrates the statement BTS shared at the Wings concert: "One heart shared by seven boys, a boy that shares seven hearts."
Bunburyist holy. Shit
Bunburyist oh my god. I got goosebumps, that's beautiful 💕
Annefantasy2003 r u done yet?? cozzz.... cb's approaching
Can you someone please expalin what does it mean? I really can't understand a think about music theory. Pls :)
I'm gonna make this as my bio
Hugo and Gwen seemed so touched. This is the kind of effect BTS' music and videos has on people..don't hit me with the whole 'they're just a trendy group'. I won't go as far as to say they're the only group that tackles difficult issues in society that's just being delusional but I will say that theirs is one of the voices that are actually being heard and standing out. I can't even explain how proud I am to be an ARMY and support these 7 boys that are so special beyond compare, to the point I feel sorry for people who don't stan them. They don't know what they're missing out on. Wow I'm getting emotional now I need to stop.
you speak my thought word for word THANK YOU. everytime bangtan or any of the member or bighit come up with something, mixtape, covers, dance practice etc. i just sit back and think how wonderfully talented all seven of them are. like how is that even possible there's no talent hole in a group. you dont get to encounter a group like this in a million years. and then i question how there are still people hating on them. it doesnt make sense
Vmin are lovers
"I feel sorry for people who don't stan them"
I SINCERELY feel that way too! Especially for those who hate them just because they're so tired of all the fuss about BTS. I'm like "dude, if you only try to check BTS without being bias, it can actually change your life".
Kkomul Kkomul Like How Suga said You will like our music if you listen to it without prejudice
Isn't that quite judgmental and condescending to say? Not everyone has to like BTS.
tigerofvirgo9 this is for the people who say they dont like bts even before trying to listen or get to know them. its a sad reality, but this kinda prejudice against boy idol group is quite prevalent especially in south korea, hence what yoongi said. if people end up not liking them after trying them then thats fine.
I literally cried at 'Awake' 😭😭 It's so beautiful yet so sad.
Panda _ ikr 😭💓
Jin's voice is so angelic and heaven-like
same ahhh
it was relatable too
Anytime I listen too it I get so sad

If You read Damian it really makes sense. Every short film represents different moment of Sinclair life, they all are Sinclars in different stadium of his understanding of himself.
DO MINIKA is there like a shorter adaptation, or a rewrite with simpler terms?? I really want to read the book but I don't understand most of the words
well unfortunately i dont know, i read it in polish and becouse H. Hesse is quite popular here there are some synopsis avaliable, but i dont know about english, You have to research it :) although the book itself is not that complicated, You can give it a try, its worth it.
search sparknotes! ;) they have summaries for the whole book and for every chapter and it really clears things!
I totally agree... You know at the very very end of the book, Sinclair says he metaphorically looks into a mirror and sees himself, "now completely resembling him, my brother, my master". (This is Jin's mirror scene). I guess Sinclair has become like Demian, and Demian has always been an adult in a way, one who experienced a lot of shit but turned out all the stronger because of it. So Jin at the end in the mirror is the resolution: He's done, he's grown up, and he made it.
I'm still not sure how the different characters fit together though, like the whole thing with the fusing circles?
This was beautiful. The things they've said, their thoughts. It was all insightful and beautiful. I especially loved the level of understanding that Gwen and Hugo had about the message of these short films and how they were more than just promotional, they were art. Great video as always
Ashe Walker are gwen and hugo the one that commented last? I'm sorry but I'm new here and I dunno them yet also if they really are the ones to comment the last than I like them the most because their comments were lit.
sostika rai yup
sostika rai Yeah, you're right. Gwen and Hugo were the last pair to comment. They're vocalists btw 😊
And welcome to the family! 👏🏻🎉 ReacttotheK has really amazing reactions that go way in depth whether in the meanings behind the songs, cinematography, or musical breakdowns! The reactors respectfully voice their opinions with proper support and reasons behind their stance, and Umu (the person behind the camera who runs the channel, edits videos, etc.) does a great job of keeping the reactors informed so that they can get the full experience. Hope you'll watch more videos on this channel, as they're all enjoyable and everyone is so likable! 😊
Ashe Walker i agree with you! only thing i can add that BTS should see these videos! these people know things about music and art that average youttuber doesn't know and so BTS can have new ideas how to improve their works and grow musicaly:)
Ashe Walker yeah, I really love when they talk about music progressions and the melody's and everything involves about the music .
Yunyi and Kevin will get even more happy to know that Suga played part of Passacaglia by Buxtehude in organ in their Blood,sweat and tears mv😏🙌
Jin's sent shivers down my spine cuz it was all coming together and the deeper message just got to me
Hugo and Gwen's talk at the end made me so emotional. I love how they understand the art of making music and short films like this. I'm so grateful for these good quality reactions that I just can't seem to find anywhere else. Thank you Umu, the reactors, and everyone else involved in making these videos!
I agree. Just finding them now in 2019. I subbed!
MPGisBTSArmyBae Fighting Same
Yes there my favorite
I just love listening to Gwen, Yunyi and Hugo talking. The passion they put in what they do/love is amazing
Can i just say that the conversation like the last 2-3 minutes was so necessary? when wings came out i truly realized why i like this group so much: their ambiguity and concept is nothing like western artists. its entirely based on how you, the viewer, interpret the videos and not straight forward like lemonade (which btw i love)... idk just felt the need to point out just how awesome their little "geeking out" moment was 😭💜
Guochen Li Guochen Li the both are alluding to hoseok's short film. in it, the film discusses depression/treatment through pills, gwen and hugo are just kind of appreciating how the writers pulled this off, with gwen kind of giving her own story with depression and how she (was or is idk) medicated. hope this helps :) if not you could search up theories
I absolutely love Hugo and Gwen's final statement about the HYYH/Wings story as a whole, how they related it to personal experience, and commented about how a storyline such as this couldn't exist in american pop music. I also love that Yunyi was so excited about one of her favorite pieces being mentioned and the amazing context to it that just went perfectly with the narration. To me this proves that this story depends so much on personal interpretation, and that every single theory has a validity that no one can question. I also love how when reacting to these teasers umu takes the time to try and remind the reactors of each members storyline, I feel without that it would be way more confusing then it already was. Hands down, best reaction channel and reactors I've ever seen.
(that was way too much like an essay, oops p.s first ever comment on a video)
If that was your first comment, you have a talent for speaking the truth girl~
I always get sad and happy when I hear 'awake' because he doesn't get as much love as the other members and he has came so far as a singer and dancer. He will always be the first person on my Bias List FOREVER. He deserves all the food (ARMY will know that he loves food) and love in the world.
I used a translator (please understand if the grammar is incorrect and you do not understand it)
Apples have two meanings in Korean.
There are two kinds of words in Korea called apples (I don't know the pronunciation to display them, so please understand even if they are translated into eating apples).
In Korea, pronunciation and expression are the same, but one is an apple that eats, and the other is the word "apology" which refers to when one forgives one's mistake.
In the video, they used the word "apology" to forgive, which they described as "eating apples."
Oh my god! That's amazing i never even considered the apology one! It adds a whole new meaning to these films!! Thanx so much!
Whoaw! I didnt know 사과 (sagwa) means two things in the Korean language. 😱😱 THIS IS AMAZING! 대박!! 감사합니다, 넴넴!!
Gwen and Hugo.... the ending speech they gave... hit me hard....... i think all along i felt the same way too, but just never knew how to express it... Dittos to them!!!
leisypeisy True i sound like a potato when i praise BTS
OK FIRST OFF as far as i know, no one in the army fandom had pointed out Liszt??? god yunyi you're amazing. and props to hugo and gwen at the end because same!
1) im just really glad someone else out there got the strong message conceived in the short films
2) "part of us is the people we're friends with" tell me how did gwen get that demian reference??
3) "to anyone who says kpop is happy, shallow, no meaning. holy fuck!" YEAH LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE AT THE BACK. honestly tho, its the hard truth that kpop is indeed still viewed as shallow like that. idk if u guys know about the drama surrounding jeff and his rollingstones article about bts. kpop conscious fans were mad because of the sloppy wording, it came off as denigrating PSY and a whole kpop to bring BTS up. kpop fans know that many groups have written social conscious songs, heck even when u read psy's lyrics, its saturated with satire but was masked in an upbeat song and party mv so people missed the messages.
BUT kpop fans also shouldn't deny that BTS somehow succeed in getting their messages to their audience. BTS somehow get armys to take their music and crafts seriously. i've been a kpop fans since 2009, and NEVER ONCE thought of reading kpop songs lyrics let alone trying to analyze the lyrics UNTIL BTS. i used to side eye kpop for being manufactured and robotic, but bts opened my eyes. bts broke my prejudice against kpop. bts is manufactured but they're special in many ways. it makes me accept that being manufactured is not a bad thing. BTS make me see kpop in a different light. i hope kpop stans can at least appreciate that?
4) "they're not doing this for publicity but as an artistic form and part of that comes from the group dynamics" hugo is sooooo on point!
- i've seen some haters being ugly saying how their faves break records with no promos, no teasers, no theories, no hardcore choreos, no sns interaction etc etc. lets be real here, they're shading bangtan because their faves did better on chart without all those 'gimmicks'
- except its not gimmicks, bang pd is an art major, he worked closely with artistic group of people like lumpens. he likes this sort of things! he's very insightful in his field.
like the Wings tour trailer has so little views, that trailer is probably only watched by armys who are guaranteed to go to the concerts anyway even without watching the trailer. so in no way the trailers gonna help fill a venue. but even so, the trailer was so wonderfully made, high budget, high production for a mere trailer.
anyways, i'm more proud of Bangtan and BigHit for the quality contents they serve on the table, for their passion to share art and music, for their sincerity to make good quality music and MVs with good messages that will comfort the fans, for their hardwork to showcase beautiful, powerful performances on stage. the records they achieved are just by products of their blood, sweat and tears. i stan bangtan not for their records, but for their music and crafts :)
Kkomul Kkomul Ok tell me how do i take this comment to the top section so that more and more people can read it.
Kkomul Kkomul PREACH THIS
I have no words except that even though senior KPOP groups are very popular and high quality the message and artistic content will always be props to BTS and BigHit Entertainment. This is because aside from making their own efforts to stand up as a small company even before, they went in the realm of art and film concept. Also, Bang PD did a smart move. He shares his interest with BTS especially rapmon like art and books which is very interesting. It's true that KPOP is manufactured but for some reason I find the sincerity of BTS in making music and creative concepts and they learn a lot from what they do. They do not just follow orders and do what the staff wants them to do but they participate in all of the things that are happening with them. They compose songs about their own life and social issues, also concerning the youth because the younger generation listens to them.
All of the things you said should at least be relayed to the media, especially those media outlet who have very little information about them. All they hold are just prejudices, stereotypes and such that is why Korean pop music will never be able to spread out entirely in the international scene. If they just delve in and learn from artists like BTS, only then will they realize KPOP as a genre's worth. But they pay little attention and they only post things about them for *views* and *popularity* which is *nasty*
EXACTLY THIS! No kpop group has made me think and bother reading lyrics. BTS have amazing discography with amazing and goosebumps lyrics. Like Spine Breaker, N.O., Tomorrow, Spring Day, etc. Totally breaks the kpop stereotype that it's just "catchy" pop music you can dance to.
Kkomul Kkomul SPOT ON!!! BTS is the whole package.. not to mention that they have a great relationship with us fans as well. I don't really want to spend mt money on concerts but I would for BTS if given a chance (and i would even pay for the best seat!) I also made additional accounts here in TH-cam and in Twitter (mind you, I'm not fond of this site) to show my support on them in social media.
If you see this comment please thank Yunyi for explaining Liszt Benediction and the whole religious man story because I connected because I connected it with Demian and it has the exact same thing the religious man in Demian is the one who introduced Abraxas to Emil Sinclair and there are many other references like the paintings in #1, the birb,the apples in Lie because Sinclair lied about stealing apples and omg i dont wanna give it all away and after making that connection, it just blew my mind. The Liszt Benediction part was definitely intentional and Im sure Rapmon knows that story too god that guy's a genius my head aches with all the connections it's making I'm so glad I read Demian. I don't wanna reveal too much, I hope they read it!
P.S Does Hugo always look as good as he does in these videos?
Jasmine: There is contact info for Yunyi in the description box. She has some cool music stuff posted on her tumbler account
Jasmine Malhotra and thank YOU cause now I learned about this 😘
I agree, that piece is magnificent although I'd like to learn more about the religious man...
Your channel caught my attention because it says "classical musicians" react BTS, so I said 'hmmm, this must be interesting" . I watched some of the video reactions and their comments about things I hadn't seen nor even paid attention to . It really shook me up and opened my eyes to the fact that BTS KPOP is more than just jammin' to music with awesome dance routines ( which I greatly admire BTW). I'm not young to be fangirling over some kids, I watch them because I started loving dance routines like the 90's NSYNC, then I stopped because they split. Now comes BTS, wins awards in the USA and they caught my attention and watch their videos every once in a while. But your channel really blew me away. Your friends' commentaries and analisis got me thinking that maybe BTS's KPOP is deeper and has so much more to offer than just what I mentioned before. Sorry for the long comment. Thank you! Great content !
Joolz4U I’m old enough to have liked *NSYNC and New Kids on the Block but I’ve never fangirled as hard with them as I do with BTS. They have deep stories to tell but deliver in a catchy music and dance package, which I do appreciate 😁.
I can relate. When i first watched spring day by bts, i just thought of it as a beautiful sad song. But one day i was watching a reacttothek video of spring day and just happened to read a comment. It explained the meaning and the purpose behind the song. And i was shook to the core. The song was about a boat/ship accident in korea with hundreds of teenagers on it dying, which the korean govt tried to cover up. Spring day was so subtle yet brave and hauntingly sad. The fact that bts ACTUALLY IS behind the ideas of these stories and compositions and lyrics etc is totally amazing. I respect them so much.♥️
Ifkr
This happened to me. I'm 24 yo and I became a fan of them
I remember first watching these short films and being so speechless and emotional and once I found out the meaning behind each and every film it made me cry, watching these videos (I legit watched the reaction from the 1st short film to the last) I just get reminded how beautiful the pieces are, BTS DONT PLAY AROUND, BIG HIT DONT PLAY AROUND but foreal armys that were around when the films were being released would understand the feeling, it was like we watched our boys grow through 7 short minutes videos
Dais Rat
What the meaning? Please
Dais Rat and now i feel so bad for being a new army. it’s not your fault tho lol it’s my emotional teen self but i feel so insignificant for not being there for them when they started or being with them earlier than what most armys were anyways i’ll shut up now xD
It was surreal and couldn't be experienced again which is sad
I almost cried because of the BTS appreciation these reactors showed and expressed, even those who weren't exactly psyched to be watching even more short films, by the end all of them were saying how good it was and artistic. I especially liked the comment about them being artists and not doing this for publicity.
You just spoke my MIND. And I very much applaud your existence for that. I'm tearing up because this is perfect.
I think it's good that the tension just kind of drops. This series doesn't have a certain and definite narrative, and not everything gets resolved in life, Demian in a way didn't have proper closure, so I think it reflects nicely rather than having a storybook ending.
holy shet you righttt
Demian the story itself was not a typical narrative so this makes even more sense
goddamnit I love this famdom

I LOST MY SHITEU WODHFBXUDHSHS
FINALLY SOMEONE NOTICED I DIED AT THAT PART
“that’s my shiteu”
I've refrained from commenting because I had actually been avoiding watching the shorts. It's because I feel I'm in this uncomfortable period of adulthood where all of it speaks to painfully close. So many heavy things I've had to carry and now that I'm older I'm learning to bear them in a way that doesn't burden others. Sometimes I want so badly to be a kid, even though my youth was no picnic. Because then I could lean on adults who were doing what I'm doing now: Being strong for someone else and bearing things quietly with a difficult dignity. It's so hard. I watched the shorts because I love this channel and I felt like I wasn't watching them alone, like I had moral support. Thank you for sharing.
I tottally get what are you saying :(
I'm honestly still a kid, but....I've honestly been avoiding these also. Being a kid is not a walk in the park anymore. Especially since there's all these things happening. I've been avoiding the shorts kind of because I didn't want to get piled on by theories but also because it's kind of relateable. I get where you're coming from here.
Crystal Williams-Brown I’m in the same boat. Adult but reluctant to delve into Wings too much b/c I know I would get it Too Well. I appreciate it in small doses, which helps. And finding others to lean on helps a lot too.
Damn... this comment got deeper than the actual shorts. I think what somewhat calms me and comforts me about this comment, is that everyone can relate somewhat to what you're saying. Yes it's different for everyone, but we all have our reality that was never easy to begin With, we just carry everything in a way where nobody else can see it pulling us down. So the fact that I and everyone else can relate to this, somewhat comforts me and makes me feel better about this sorta thing for myself. Basically what I'm trying to say is, you're not alone! We may all be different, and we may dislike some people, but we all connect and share something in some shape or form. Just like this. :)
And that's what the BTS ARMY is all about. 💜
Hugo and Gwen at the end 👏👏 I agree with them that bts are really different and actually talk about serious things and how it would never happen in the western music industry I'M REALLY PROUD TO BE AN ARMY 💖💖
"i thought that was candy corn" truly another reason on why i think shimon only thinks about food
NEVER LEFT PORNHUB SO FAST
Thanks ma dood *****
Does park jimin is gay mystic messenger reference!! omggg
AYyYE Dee
I'M YELLING
I never understood why watching porn is an enjoyable thing like I know this comment is probably a joke but it just baffles me how people find enjoyment from people frick fracking. how? why? I don't understand
"Hobi, who is dude obsessed with pills."
Me: *dies right there but then **_Awake_** comes on and further dies cuz of Jin's amazing voice and worldwide handsomeness*
that "you're not you when you're hungry" comment was also very popular in the MV's comment section haha
oh my god, the gwen and hugo part had me in tears. i could relate to everything becouse i delt with depression too...gaaaaah, i just wanted to hug them, they're such wonderful, warm people
Honestly, though, I am always happy and more than satisfied with BigHit and BTS' artistic choices. I trust them with that. Their music videos are so amazing which are highlighted especially since HYYH. Before their comeback with WINGS, they surprised us with these short films (plus, an amazing Intro) that are definitely mind-boggling, creative, unique, and artistic. It's actually amazing since they had been carrying such pressure for producing and releasing the film, Prologue, and the story lines of both I NEED U and RUN. I thought that _maybe_ they'd tone down a bit since it'd be a lot more difficult for them (-to live up with the expectations of the public-) to release even _more_ artistic than or as artistic as the HYYH series. But no, they didn't. They continued with WINGS and they're definitely doing so well. I'm more than amazed and proud of them.
To this day, I still think that BigHit and BTS will provide us quality content with their songs, music videos, and short films. Jimin once said in an interview that a new storyline is made. Let's wait for that. I believe in them. Thank you so much, ReacttotheK (Umu) for showing these short films to them. And thank you so much to these wonderful and amazing musicians (especially Hugo and Gwen for talking about the films deeply and in a different perspective) who have appreciated the productions of both BigHit and BTS.
The fans for this channel are no joke
is that good or bad
Kkomul Kkomul It means we're seriously invested in this lovely group of people.
I guess I should say good cause I'm one too hahahaha I keep on getting here earlier and earlier
You know you're way too deep in when they say abraxas you immediately go
AbRaTaSaS
Im in the pit with you fam. 🙌🏻
Sky Montask JK mispronounced it in their reaction vid to Blood, Sweat and Tears 😂😂
Anyone else remember when Jin was scared of lighting the flower petals? Thats was great 😂 (omg i cant take A N Y T H I N G seriously)
AWAKE IS MY FAVORITE SOOOOOONGGGGGG
We can be best friends!!!
"ok i need to look up Demian after this"
every ARMYs after the teasers were released
ra more like I bought the book and read it after the mvs
I love electro-swing! I never thought of MAMA like that before though, now that I see it like that, it seems more fun. MAMA had to be one of my favourites from the Wings album too.
Viitality same I love electro swing. maybe that's why I love mama so much
I like Electro-swing cause it has a strong influence from Klezmer music.
Viitality The fact that there is such a constrast between the music and the lyrics makes me appreciate Hobi more. There's a duality to it and I think it's a reference to his personality as a whole.
i want to share a little tp you guys, MAMA.. it's really amazing when u see the live performance. both Mama and Awake, like really really amazing.
Mooji Boldbaatar Bingo! When Rapmon was talking about the list of songs in the Wings album and how each of them was made, he mentioned that although MAMA has such a funky beat to it, and seems all exciting, the lyrics are subdued and deep and has more to it than just a happy song and he said the song is the kind of person Hobi is. He said the song resembles Hoseok just like you said.
"Jin's my favorite."
Me too girl lets cry together
"Apple come back!" *snorts*
"He's a birb!" *cackles*
YEs MY BBS JIN AND JHOPE
Bless your soul
Shimon says exactly what army's thought when they first saw all the short stories "too many, too hard"
SAMe
The last two reactors, Hugo and Gwen!!! They just blew me away with their comments because YES YES YES!! They got it and they legit felt what my baes were showing! They saw true art and passion!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻💞💞 They legit saw the masterpiece that BTS creates! 🙌🏻👑😘 Much love!!! ☺️💜
Trisha Tan Sitosta omg yes! BTS and kpop in general sends so many messages that are so deep and can help people and help people realize what’s happening around them
"i don't want to see this anymore." "it's too hard." me after watching up to Blood Sweat and Tears I gave up every theory i made. i just gave up.
Hello I just watched this in 2019 and something I wanna say:
At 5:37, I got goosebumps cuz what he sang is exactly how 'I'm Fine'(2018 release from the album LY:Answer) sounds like☺
"no apple go back" 😂😂
i clicked so fast it's not even real
jin and jhope one is my bias and the other is threatening me to swerve lanes
I FEEL YA GIRL
Salsabila Putri SAME
Salsabila Putri i ReLAtE
"This is so surprisingly upbeat, but it's so depressing" My thoughts when I first read the lyrics for MAMA. I remember Namjoon describing how MAMA was just like Hobi. There's this happy vibe but behind it lies a deeper meaning -- a deeper person which is Hoseok.
can't get over the fact naoki and shimon are second cousin
BlueNinjaGirl9000 WAIT WHAT?! and here i am shipping them together 😂😂
BlueNinjaGirl9000 WHAT???? i just knew that😂
*They need to react to the entire songs!!!!*
Look into the reaction table in the description..... the reaction to the full songs will be uploaded next year.
Half a year to go😭
Jin
PLEASE HAVE THEM REACT TO AGUST D
ᄋᄉᄋSarah Yaas! Oh and also “So Far Away” and “The Last”
3:32 "THE BALLS KEEP CHANGING" Lmao XD
hollup why am I so early.
Also demian is a really good book I liked it so much I actually bought it.
sasaki haise me too I read it and I will have to thank BTS for that
Yeah for real, I discovered the book at 00:30 AM and told myself to stop reading, but somehow finished the whole thing that night ^^' I just love it so much~
sasaki haise lmao yo haise where are you now? kinda missed you 😂😂😂
yeah it is, infact i read it because ishida sui/bts brought me there lol
Rei Satsuki I died next to hide

andrea agree!!
andrea its lit🔥
andrea agree!!
andrea yes pls yessss baby tae and papa rm
imma upvote this cuz ngl i've been listening to it since it dropped. ITS SO GOOD
im waiting for the snicker's part 😂😂
I love how much they appreciated Jin's voice!
3:03 *"Hahaha, he took a Snickers bar right out of his pocket"*
...Well, This is BTS... Of course the Snickers bar represents something...
Yeah. When hoseok character mom abandoned him in the park he was eating a snickers bar
i knew theyd like jin's alot because awake had an orchestral vibe awehsjdje
I love that they appreciated the short films as works of art because honestly the storyline of the HYYH is super deep and thoughtful according to ones own interpretation. It's amazing that as a group BTS and bighit created such a beautiful series about youth.
Really looking forward to see their reaction to the whole songs
All of them are just so meaningful
for example Begin express JK's feelings for his hyungs but they can't see though these teasers😂
BTS is my favorite group too💜🤞
I love watching these because even if I don’t understand all the terminology used, everyone has a deeper appreciation for BTS’ music.
"awww can't help the sick beats but he's also sick ahhh" LMAO
The moment when your bias and bias wrecker are together and weak little heart cant take it T_T
NOTIFICATION SQUAD WHERE R UUU
enggalcahya rizqina Here

enggalcahya rizqina yeahhh
YAS
"Electro swing vibes…jazz with a modern beat" He just described the song perfectly.
I love putting the pieces together for these videos, they are so beautiful and have so many pick ups that you have to watch them more than once to realise the connections. I love BTS because they challenge us fans because they know that we want to solve the mystery, it's so good!!!
Yess, thank you for reacting to these!!
I'm in class rn trying not to get caught on my phone😂
You could try to explain the stories behind the MVs by watching theory thursday! Every theory video, in my opinion, seems right!
summary of her theory: Jin died, and is watching over the other boys from a place after death. But when we see all of the happy moments (prologue) it is actually just Jin imagining that he is still alive and that they are all happy. But in real life, all of the boys are having a difficult time, and can not realize that Jin will never come back (the boys stories somehow combines.) They are really struggling, but one after one, they realize that they need to move on. And they do so with the help of fellow members.
there is also something about spring day and not today about jungkook and how he feels like the other members actions affects him in a bad way (he tries to run away from them, but they are like his brothers...)
BTW, as a fellow classical musician, it is really fun to watch you guys react to kpop!
OOhh my gosh i was seriously about to cry to what Hugo and Gwen said! They basically explained the reason why i like bts much!!! I love all the reaction video of these short films! It feels so nice having other people think and be confused and come up with an analysis. Reminds me of myself when i first watched the films lol
They're really the best reactors ever. From music instruments to music videos, they notice everything and pick them out. That's great!
much respect for Gwen and Hugo. Those two had such insightful and accurate opinions on the films that I wanted to cry at one point. Bts would be so happy to see these people appreciating their art and the meanings behind it. Makes me so proud of them and what they've produced
this kind of reaction and commentary is really what i'm waiting.. i love it bc they don't only talk about the visuals and stuffs but for the video and the music itself... bts and bighit did a very great job for preparing that album and this kind of response also shows that they did an amazing job.. i hope bts will be able to see this.. you guys are awesome
honestly bighit deserve this kind of reactors, people who can truly appreciate their works for what it is. and not just dismiss it as fakedeep or tryhard.
truth
How can I make every person who hates kpop watch this? And how can I make bts watch this? Literally they are all so intelligent and picked up stuff that I picked up after MONTHS of watching these short films and thinking to myself....!!!! I especially loved Hugo's and Gwen's reaction because they were similar to mine😂 I LOVE YOU ALL and keep exercising your brains by doing those beautiful reactions and making sense out of EVERYTHING! You open my eyes musically and generally ❤️❤️❤️
Get the video subbed in Korean, and tweet it to BTS. That's how you can get them to watch it.
i also recommend the wings album songs from the short clips. they seemed to really like jin's "awake".
What an intelligent group of young people. I appreciated how much the vocalists actually absorbed the message of the entire series and were affected by it, even just from watching it the first time. Incredible. Thank you for the great content.
Im sooooo excited for them to listen to the full songs!!!I really hope you show them the lyrics and translations and I wanna say Im so happy with how into it the last two reactors got and how much they appreciate how deep and genuinely artistic BTS's work is! Great channel!
awww Hugo and Gwen got emotional and gave such a beautiful honest review ❤
it is great to see everyone's reaction to these films and how they relate to it and the way they see it
*SO MAMAMOO WILL COME BACK JUNE 22th*
작업대 THE DAY BEFORE MY BIRTHDAY OMFG
I'm early, there's a legend that say that the more early you comment the faster they reply!!!! I love this channel and people's reaction! PLEASE REACT TO BTS DANCE PRACTICES
These reactions help with the theories honestly. Especially when the technical music terms and stuff is explained
Thank you for delving deeper into the music, the message, the meaning. It is very appreciated.
I love hearing people's insight
Jin is the best 😍
YAS!! FINALLY!! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR AGES FOR UR UPDATES😂😂 THANKYOU!!!
Shimmon: "Too many and too hard to understand..."
Me: Exactly how I felt when I watch BTS's theory videos.
I love BTS because they are very intentional in everything they do. The videos, the lyrics, the music, the production, the composition, everything has a deeper meaning. And you look deeper you will always be moved by what you discover.
1:19
The way he said MAMA
I'm cryin' 😂
