@@pnegi4030 This is such a sweet comment.
feel like im in history class, but one about yoongi
history class should always be like this
Lol I would actually study if history class was like this
this is so much more interesting than my history class (i can't focus in any class honestly)
If this was history class then i'd probably pay attention more than usual 😂😂
Just imagine if SUGA was the one giving us history lesson. 😂
Yess
Okay It is 100% confirmed that Yoongi is a genius and this channel is a genius
When was it not? Haha
Im a multifandom bitch too😁✌
@@pakhyun3777 i agree to pak hyun's interpretation rather than that of dkdk. dkdk's interpretation is just one dimentional, especially describing the King as a big companies in the Kpop industry lol. Suga surpassed that stage long time ago. It is more like the King is alter ego of Suga, the successful BTS, and by killing the King, Suga wants to keep his feet grounded again as he did 7yrs ago. RM and Suga tasted success and they do not want the success to take over their spirit, passion, dedication etc. They often said they want to keep their feet grounded otherwise they become easily lazy ans lose their passion
pak hyun okay but everyone has different prospects on what songs mean for example a song that means something happy to you can trigger something sad to me? So they are not making up anything but analyzing the song and video.. he doesn’t say this is what this means but this is what it could mean! Also they’re explaining the context of the lyrics and what they mean! They could mean nothing to you but he’s actually giving history and context! If you think it’s bs, then don’t watch? We are actually learning something even if it means it’s not the exact meaning? He’s actually taking time to explain and helps people better understand the song, so you should be thankful instead of saying they’re bs.. have a good day
thus the beauty of art~~ is is open to interpretation
I was a bit disappointed that you didn't point out the change of perspective in the end...
It wasn't only about bragging when he said there is nowhere up to go. He literally says he now wants to look down and keep his feet in the ground which I believe means he doesn't want to stay fascinated by being on top, but keep himself true and not lose himself.
it can't be both??
Also that rebel Agust D tries, and shoots his shot but we're uncertain yet about how this will end and unfold would've been interesting to include.
I literally came here looking for this comment
shhhh it sounds cooler this way
That's my take on it from another level. I wouldn't doubt that there are multiple layers to this scenario. Look at his name/s! He's not happy with one level...!
“He’s having that sword dance that probably suga learned in two days” I mean man he’s a big fan 😂
and see he actually learned it in two days TT
He did learn it in two days but danny said apparently not probably..
He was familiar with the sword before, he only learned the steps.
9:30
I think that this line means that Bang-PD asked them to dance on and on
Video on TH-cam showing him learning it from a master
Let’s be real, Jin’s considered himself on Bang PD’s level for years now.
Jinhit
About what do you think
He but it to diss all anti Korean he probable see a lot of the hate by people calling them Korean girls don't forget that even in national news they were dragged don't forget that one who said " how Korean girls are attracted to them, and they feel sorry for the girls" and that one who called jk a cow !!
It's a song for all people of that "leader" mentality( Racist)
Look at me now in billboard and Grammy what do you think and go f yourself he is basically giving the middle finger to all Korean anti he said the trap in Daecbwita too he is Korean with Korean traditional music and rapping in Korean and trending and people are listening to him all over the world.
Don't follow without understanding ..
he is well-educated
you should read first
he told us about the trap we should know better to treat him like that
JinHit entertainment 😂😂

True thing
*It* *feels* *like* *a* *history* *class* *but* *the* *only* *difference* *is* *that* *it's* *interesting*
For the people who are saying I hate history, I don't. I just find it boring. 🧡
yeah, the real history class was just boring smh👀
Agreed
but history is so good
History boring????😳
Of course 😅
If you think History is bad you're probably 12 years old. When you get older you will understand the importance and the huge impact it has had on our world as of today and why its still important to learn from it.
I personally think that the reason why BTS is so popular is because they have substance. They have a cause, they write from their heart, it has meaning. Whereas other groups are really talented but are just performers and not musicians
I think a big reason why BTS is is so popular is because they are so likeable and funny. Their substance is a huge part of it. They want to stay grounded and appreciate it all. Their talent, music, dancing, songwriting etc., is a given to their popularity for sure. And there are many talented artists out there. However, few others project so much likeability and love to Armies and the world.
they create for the sake of it, not just for the sake of being in the limelight. at least that's my opinion.
Suga explained in a behind-the-scenes video about his roles in the music video.
He said that the August D from four years ago has become a king, but now he is in conflict with another August D.
I really think he sings about how he reached the top/ became a King. All the struggles he went through, the critics he had faced, his mental health, worked hard, became rich and famous etc. Now he has reached the top and is reflecting on everything.
He realizes what he has become and he doesn't like it. So, he kills that person. He wants to stay firmly on the ground.
In my opinion Suga is always looking inside himself and tries to be a better person.
In another interview he had said that you reach the top, but one day you will come down, but that's not bad, because then you try and climb again.
Hey! I live in South Jersey. And, on February 8th, I was in a store and heard "No, Not Today" playing. This was the 2nd time I had heard a BTS track played here. The first was "Dynamite. " Just thought I'd share that.
@@msm3668 hey that's cool id just freak out if BTS music played where I lived
@@anushkasinha4524
I know what you mean. One day not long ago, I heard 'Seesaw' as I entered a store and 'Dynamite' in another store; stopped me in my tracks. Their Samsung Black and White commercial airs as well.💜
@@anushkasinha4524 I heard Boy With Luv playing in a Kohl’s or something like that a while back. I immediately started bobbing my head and humming and stuff. Lol.
Yes!!!! The analysis in the vid doesn’t take any account of Suga himself playing the 2 roles, so there’s gotta be more complexity to the whole “taking down the king” theme.
This song is for those ppl who are being be little and want to prove that they are not just that little. They can also be the predator who are patiently waiting for their prey.
Indeed....
Yeah that's also a way to look at it
yoooooooo
I really needed that and I can't express how much that means to me
thank you
@@pakhyun3777 you didn't have to slander dkdk like that
@@pakhyun3777 how about you get your own channel then you can make your own explained videos. Instead of going onto someone else's channel.
I feel like there's a second interpretation to this, and not only his "bad" past. If the king only represented the industry then why is yoongi the king? It feels like, just like in Shadow, there's a fight between his two personas here. the king representing his ego and his need to keep going higher, and the commoner being the side of him that is more down to earth but still not letting others step on him.
At the end of the MV the commoner shoots the king, in order for his ego driven persona not to get out of control and stay humble with his succeses.
Damn really nice interpretation
When mom says we got einstein at home:
I couldn't have said that better because that's exactly what I was thinking.
Thats what im thinking too but i just couldnt interpret it in words
EXACTLY this is what i i felt
Suga is the only artist who can flex on us bc he is humble unlike other artist who flex and flex and just flex and just don’t care of ppl feelings suga is just genius
I know you mean Agust D and who produced So Far Away? Bcuz Yoongi so quiet and humble. Suga quiet, funny and part of group. When fire breathing Agust D flex - a million hearts stop beating and draw a deep breath. = : O
Or should say about 100 million hearts! :-D
American rappers 😤
Estela Lopez i meant it as in most american rappers flex and do nothing else-like the comment was talking about
Exactly. It's a self aware flex. A thankful flex.
To all those "armys" being rude to Danny for this, first of all, nothing he said was wrong and his explanation made sense. People can interpret art in many ways and Danny's interpretation can be justified by the lyrics and MV. Its not like yoongi had an official explanation of anything. Second of all, stop attacking people when they clearly put a lot of work and thought into these videos and they don't even make a lot of money from it. They make this for fans and because they like making vids. Its okay to disagree but please be respectful and Danny did nothing wrong for u to accuse him of. Thanks Danny, as an army we appreciate u and ur hard work and I love ur vids.
@@loveyourself6986 If he was using it for popularity, he would make other vids that actually got him money, instead of spending hours to make this one. And he's a kpop youtuber, he doesnt only talk about bts but theres going to be alot of content about them since they legit are the biggest artist. I dont really see the issue, bts made kpop more popular globally, thus they gave kpop youtubers more popularity too (this channel started before they even knew bts). I think danny could have phrased his words better but the logic makes sense. And he did apologize multiple times for that incident.
Navy Sam bts didn’t make kpop popularity other kpop groups did too not all bts. No offense don’t attacking me army’s.
2020is_crazy_year yess others groups too but mostly bcz of BTS kpop is getting more popularity from giving speech in UN to donations from teaching the world selflove to topping billbord and itunes from guiness record to being the 1st Kpop artist to perform Grammy so its a fact! pls dont be offended too 😊
@@is_crazy_year lmao BTS made kpop relavent pls accept the truth
Impact is something you all need to see
Stop riding someone else's success I'm uaena but it so ....wrong to ride someone else's hardwork and success
BTS is the who getting bashed and getting hate on daily bases for K-pop popularity and gone through so ..much bcoz of big3shit
And now suddenly all wanna use their name? It's so wrong
@@ditiphukan4198 it's bcoz of BTS u army's are so humble 🤦♀️ why
Seriously many trynna ride BTS success ??
Bcoz of BTS success many already got fans
I don't agree with all kpop Grps etc shit
It's BTS hardwork all kpop Stan's made fun of them and harassesd them even till now
But try to ride BTS sucess
To add something, Suga mentioning Bang PD and the drawing of his face with a chinese character "Dance" as if it's his mouth. Since BTS was supposedly a Hiphop group, before joining the group, Suga thought they wouldn't have to dance but then Bang PD suddenly suggests/told him to dance. I feel like he lowkey dissed Bang PD there. lmao
He really did diss him, I mean look at the lyrics, he is directly stating that time is money but his time worths more than that, Bang PD is dancing on their sky rocketing revenue, so I kind of felt that he is dissing him for earning from their precious time.... but I have to give it to PD nim that he generously allowed him to do so... as far as I think Bang PD scrutinizes their song
@@persona8208 no offense but that's a reach
I think so in joking way I guess
lysa qis It’s an opinion
It can also be implied that bts and yoongi bring a lot of money and profit to the company that even bang pd is dancing without having any worries
I remember learning in my literature class that the best type of literature is the writing that could be interpreted in many different ways but still relevant without it being misleading. Here DKDKTV explained that Daechwita is a song of BTS relationship with ARMY and their struggles and success in the entertainment world but I also read in some tweets from ARMY that this song talked more about his struggles with the shadow of himself, how he fear the greedy (or the King) side of him that grows along with his fame. In the song after he talks about how now he got everything from clothes to money and basically craves nothing more since he's so high already, he continued with "I only looked up and now I want to look down and put my feet on the ground", I interpret is as he already experience everything great about his success and now he just wants to settle and keep being humble, back to his roots. It is always interesting to see how he talk a lot about this struggle of him where he didn't want to lose himself to fame and he always just wants to keep on being the humble him. He kind of feared that the King / Greedy side of him will take over him and turning him into a mean person, but here in the video he visually kills the King, an imagery of how he kills his Greedy side, and let the humble-normal citizen side of him live.
In conclusion, this song can be interpreted in so many ways and that is very clever of him. This song is lit and people who refuse to recognize his talent are just dumb.
(edit : Yooo thanks for 1K guys! Really ppreciate that you made time to read my long ass comments asdjsjd thank you very much!)
I totally agree with your theory. I don't see ARMY here, I think it's Yoongi struggling with Yoongi, and getting his feet back on the ground. But it's always nice that everyone understands different things 😊
@@baudolino2727 still, the girl can represent ARMY, plus the name of the gun is also "Colt army". But i also incline to this interpretation. Yoongi himself explained a lot, so it's pretty obvious.
I replied this same thing to another comment already, sorry, but I just wanna communicate with people who think like me, so, yeah. I agree it’s possible for it to be not only a diss track for others (u never know) but a metaphor for his own journey and evolution. The part about the mental clarity term meaning reaching an state of “now what” correlates with the verses of him reaching everything, having a reality check and now wanting to put his feet back on the ground, kinda like a “wake up call” for himself.
I agree with you about good literature or art can be interpreted in different ways or levels. It doesn't matter how you see it, it is still relevant to the art. Thats what's so amazing about BTS you are getting something different depending from what perspective you see it.
But yoongi did say in his radio episode a few nights ago that he wrote this song thinking about ARMY. That's what inspired him to write this song. Still the song could take many interpretations!
I personally imagined the song as a different interpretation- that the corrupt king version of yoongi was representative of his ego after bts’ big explosion into the western market around the time of his first mixtape’s release (hence why he still has the blonde hair which he had in the music videos for ‘Give It To Me’ and ‘Agust D’, now grown out). The lower-class yoongi to me represents his inner self hitting pause and looking at himself in the mirror, realizing that his ego has gotten too big and has now sent himself on a mission to kill the part of himself that thinks he is too good for this world, the high and mighty tyrant king.
That's a good theory too 👍🏼
make sense tho
Love this explanation !

Me: *Head banging intensifies*
Omg same
SAMEE
Unfortunately, head banging gives me a head ache, but only because I played this song on loop for 2 hrs uwu
Headbanging at 58 years of age.
YAAAAAS
Your interpretation of Korean historical references, such as King Gwanghae and crown prince Sado, are on point. Him writing the words specifically Gwanghae and rice chest is a clear sign that Suga definitely had King Gwanghae and crown prince Sado in his mind. But i dont really agree to your interpretation of the King being big entertainment companies in Kpop and low class Suga being a humble rookie suga from a small unknown company. I think that interpretation is too simple and quite one dimensional. I think Suga and BTS have surpassed the stage of being bitter about how they were ignored and mistreated by big companies in the Kpop industry.
I thought the King is his alter ego, who has achieved everything he ever wanted and ended up being currupt and being a tyrant due to his success, and the low class Suga is current Suga constantly reminding him of how his humble beginnings were like and of how passionate he was about music and his career. By a low class Suga killing the currupt tyrant King, his alter ego, he wants to make sure to keep his feet grounded again as he started 7rys ago.Basically, i interpreted this is a song that constantly reminds him of his humble beginnings, how he will never let his success currupt him and how he will never let his success take away his dedication and passion into music.
I really think BTS and Suga have already surpassed the stage of being bitter about how they were mistreated in the industry in the past. That was a long time ago.
Other than that, I agree to most of your interpretation.
Agree as to the oversimplification of big companies. It can be interpreted many ways but that seems too mundane. I feel like his meaning is more personal.
@Estela Lopez Yes! Except Suga/Agust D. He loves those shiny trophies. He works hard & is super talented so deserves everyone he gets! I think they do music for love & for fans.
Can we pin this comment plsss!
That is also a more universal message most people can relate to - inner struggles of chasing the goals without compromising the soul.
Carol Miller that’s a brilliant way of putting it. That’s what I got from it too
"The fact that I'm silent, doesn't mean that I'm weak nor ignorant."
I think this phrase fits the meaning of the song very well.
BTS was silent for so many years until their popularity exploded, but even when it did, they still kept silence. Instead of going on shows or interviews to bash others (like some artists do), they've always used their music to speak out their struggles and discomfort, and the best part of it? They don't need to say names, they've never said names, yet a lot of people boiling in anger, have popped up.
This is why BTS never cease to amaze me.
really? there are artists that actually said they make music when they're high, who said that?
“The fact that I’m silent, doesn’t mean that I’m weak nor ignorant.”
Roze M Joyce what?? High on drugs you saying what you saying
@@rozemjoyce1616 - what the hell are you talking about? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
@@memorysquirrel2178 dude im quoting sugas lyrics
I can’t believe there’s an actual word for “post nut clarity”

The beauty of languages
yeah in japanese it's 'kenja taimu' lol, I have never heard of it being used figuratively as it sounds like they do in korean though lol
@@TheDustyForestYes we do. Only a few (internet ghosts) know where the term came from and what does the term mean. It feels weird when I find mass media using that word casually in TV shows
@@QMJUN yeah that's so weird lol
This is why I’m so thankful for all the army’s that supported BTS from the beginning. The ones that stayed with them through all their hardships. The ones that help motivate them to be who they are today. Thank you ARMY! saranghaeyo ARMY!
I'm thankful as well. They need our continued support more than ever now. It was reported today, 2/10/21 that there is an alarming rise in attacks on Asian Americans across the U. S. To date, there has been 2800 assaults...a rise of 27℅ from 2019. Keep our guys in your prayers. There is a TH-camr whose channel contents are growing in support of accusing BTS and other Korean idols of culture appropriation in their rise to fame. I take this as a direct hit (particularly) on BTS's Grammy nomination bcuz this person goes on and on and on to influence her responders with her videos with info backing her claims, and is gaining more and more support. I'm sharp enough to discern what's happening here. BTS has worked hard and deserves the awards they've achieved, as well as this nomination. Adeola Ash, the channeler...her followers were once ARMYs until they began receiving and responding to her venomous videos. Now, they trash talk ARMY. Please pass this info on to loyal ARMYS.
oh God, this explained A LOT, I am so grateful for it DKDKTV!. This song itself is nothing without the meaning, the message is soo good, all these references and symbols...mind-blowing! I could not understand it without you, thanks!
Has anyone mentioned that Yoongi said in the "My shooting Sketch" upload, that the mad king in the beginning is the person Agust D became when he dropped his first Mixtape, 4years ago and that there is now another Agust D confronting him??
i was thinking about this too!! i think yoongi was trying to say that maybe the old agustd (notice they both have blonde hair) would have become too cocky or arrogant. the new agustd recognizes his origins as an artist and uses his success for a better purpose? i see some parallels between the last from agustd in 2016 and daechwita. in the last yoongi explains his struggle as an adolescent and early adult, but towards the end you can see how proud he is of himself for overcoming these difficulties. idk just an interpretation of mine. there are many ways to consider yoongi's art respectfully.
Looked for this comment specifically. Yeah, I agree it’s possible for it to be not only a diss track for others but a metaphor for his own journey and evolution. The part about the mental clarity term meaning reaching an state of “now what” correlates with the verses of him reaching everything, having a reality check and now wanting to put his feet back on the ground, kinda like a “wake up call” for himself. Just an opinion
Yeah, i thought the mv shooting sketch pretty much explained the video’s concept.
My interpretation is Agust D in 2016 is such a monster who diss everyone and in the mv it's represented as he kills people right and left now Agust D in 2020 improves and doesn't want to be that type of person even he got fame and money he we still be a humble being as how he started before everything he have now I also think black hair Suga is the D-2 mixtape while the blonde hair Suga is the first Agust D mixtape
this analysis is interesting, i do want to point out that yoongi himself has said that the king yoongi in this mv represents the 2016 agust d and that 2020 agust d had to kill him to take over. (said so in daechwita behind episode), that kinda changes up the whole meaning of the mv imo
But in a way you can still interpret it from another perspective, and that’s amazing how he can manage to do that even if he gives hints on what it’s about.
explains his blonde hair (2016 suga was blonde)
Clearly killing himself at end. I guessed but wasn't exactly sure so thx for that.
I watched Daechwita with zero context. I was immediately mesmerized by the cinematography, the story line and Suga himself. Let's face it, he's STUNNING in this video. But, now after watching this very informative video, it even comes together more beautifully. For a westerner, it's impossible to understand the deeper meaning behind so many of BTS songs. Thank you for taking time to educate the world on BTS and Korean history.
If only school history classes were like these...
I would never leave any single milliseconds of that class
Yoongi's mixtapes have always been much more personal. It's centred around his own journey, struggles and occasional clashes within his mind. I personally believe there's much more to it than your explanation.
In the behind the scenes Yoongi said the king is past Agust D and the peasant is current Agust D... so I’m trying to fit all the pieces together 😫
I agree & his interview that just dropped further backs this, I think. As much as I love the ARMY X BTS idea, I don't think this was the angle at all 🤔 Then again, interpretation 🤷🏾♀️
all the 'head banging' songs produced by bts always have a deep meaning to it, like today I learnt that tear and daechwita are just about their struggles and how they're trying to or have overcome it ✌😔
the head banging in the mv gave me chills!! he was about to be "killed" but till the end it was like he was going out like a legend. and then the court officials who were under the king yoongi were head banging with him!! omg that's so powerful
I know, today's break the silence episode made me cry heaps. It's just like JK said, he don't want to think about it. Plus never would have known Tear was for the members and Suga said they all cried when they listened
@@SophieAngom like Soo Choi said on Twitter "ever since I started stanning bts I always cry at least two times a week"
@@snoozerm lol I kinda expected a twist given this is bts and they always have surprise elements in their videos but yes the whole video gave me chills cuz first of all it was visually pleasing and second I got to see yoongi in his traditional attire which I was waiting for since ddaeng released. I absolutely loved this mixtape
9:31 I had a feeling Suga was on the same level as Bang PD when all August D's songs don't start with the Big Hit intro
WoW I never noticed that and I watched them all the time 😱
Hell yea🤔💯💯
Even a lot of RM's songs don't have the intro because bighit doesn't produce it or something like that
They don’t start with the Big Hit intro because they’re his own work, not BH’s. Every members’ self produced works, like RM’s and Hobi’s as well are like this. If you check Tae’s Winter Bear MV, it’s the same thing, it doesn’t have the BH intro as well because it’s his solo work.
army: Comes up with this elaborate theory about what bts' songs could mean
Bts: I just thought it sounded cool
Here's some other things:
- He also looks at the butcher in the village, and they make a pact for the butcher to be the executioner and release Agust D to kill the king. Even the villagers shun the tyrant king.
- The old Agust D just beheads all that have concerns and that go against him because he is too scared and paranoid to properly confront the problems.
- "Berserk tiger Gwanghae flow" he is talking about the tyrant king Agust D, talking about how wicked he became. Present Suga might have also mocked the king by driving in the courtyard and flexing his relation with Bang PD, just to show how his past self was easy to anger.
- "Shove the past into the rice chest" He is foreshadowing about killing his past self because of how notorious and wicked he had become.
-Present Suga showing you aren't born as royalty, you need to work for it. And you can show it in different ways, like how he's gotten from a peasant (rookie idol) to one of the most successful and smart kings (Worldwide superstar). He also mocks the king in a metaphoric way. How the king beheads people (doesn't want to deal with the problems) and how Suga confronts them and endures them (diss tracks about plagiarism and mental health)
-Just the old king theme and modern day underclassman theme about killing the past stereotypes and rules in general and making new ones.
*Hope this helped too :)*
edit: supposedly kings were allowed to have scars at war, but queens were not, according to many Koreans. Yoongi also specified on the recent interview on Bangtantv that the scar had no meaning. I apologize if this caused any misinformation :) but thanks for the likes !!
Now THIS is the way to add suggestions...
Plenty of Koreans have been saying that this scar thing is not correct. It was the Queens the ones who couldn't have scars, it didn't matter for the Kings. He having a scar just shows he went into battle (which kings weren't supposed to do).
I've heard that the scar thing isn't actually true and it's more so a bad omen.
thank you
The scar thing is wrong, plenty of armys already explained on twitter that it was just a plot device in some kdrama. Please edit your comment to avoid spreading misinformafion
This really is the beauty of Yoongi's mind, his genius. This Mixtape really is a conversation worthy of a whole series of dissecting each song. I think we can all interpret it in any way we want or understand. The interpretation of ARMYs surely would be slightly different from other casual fans. I appreciate DKDKTVs interpretation though. Yoongi really is a genius. This Mixtape is a gift, I feel like I'm not worthy listening to it sometimes.
Suga is always a unique genius piece...🔥
Yoongi: **about to be killed**
Also Yoongi: I DON’T CARE THIS SONG IS MY JAM **A G G R E S S I V E H E A D B A N G I N G**
Makes me remember fake love how he was smiling when there is literally fire burning down the whole place but he just sits there smiling
I'll never listen to Daechwita anymore the same way I did before. Man. This explanation taught me so much. This just doubled my respect for Suga and the rest of the BTS. Kings indeed!
There are so many interpretations of this song, I'm amazed - I really like the historical references that I would not have noticed otherwise but I disagree completely that this song is about Big 3 vs Bighit. I feel the blond king and dark haired peasant are both representative of Yoongi himself and his struggle with identity/fame/success. Sure, he is rightfully proud of everything he has achieved despite starting out as an underdog from humble beginnings but there could be a part of him he recognises as being cocky/overconfident that he wants to get rid of (which is why he shoots the king).
Agree
It's not necessarily Bighit vs Big 3. It's Suga and BTS being so small in the beginning with so many companies above him, but he has risen up. I see it as a double meaning with Suga killing his past self, and also becoming more powerful and better as a person and artist
i agree
Yeah, I agree. I think Yoongi even said something like that, that the blond king represents the previous Agust D. And the black-haired peasant is the new Agust D - he's wearing the same clothing as the original Agust D. He's become like a tyrant, and he needs to put his feet back firmly on the ground.
@@pakhyun3777 wow this makes more sense and yesss I remembered those times when they have said such things. Even jungkook once mentioned how lucky they are that they are doing what they really love but still sometimes are scared of what's next on their plate that is in their careers.
I love how BTS always add a unique backstory to their music.
It’s what makes them different about every Kpop artist.
Yeah
PREACH
BTS IS A WHOLE DIFFERENT LEVEL
Normal kpop generic mvs about love,breakup bla bla..they are so generic , my eye bleeds
@@adnanhowlader143
Yess. Same
@@adnanhowlader143 other conpanies are too scared to risk their money doing what Bighit does does.
Y'know I personally feel that the person who was supposed to behead Yoongi represent those haters who later became bts fans and thus he did not behead him but instead gave him a gun which could mean they now support him.
Moreover suga himself said " We need new haters, old ones became our fans."
The power BTS holds 🤠
Did Suga really say that?...that they need new haters...? Oh, MAN, that sounds just like something he would say.
I must admit...I’m one of them. Lol
Hyunta = post-nut clarity
That's all I got from this vid 💀
HYUNTA = Post nut clarity. Yoongi has post nut clarity. Gotcha.
I didnt know I needed to know that. But now I know I really did. Powerful move Yoongi. Powerful.
I couldn’t stop laughing at this
Maybe I’m just childish
@@megan8271 Nah I can't stop laughing too 💀
Chelle_newyork yeah the way he explained it by saying they used it in everyday conversations, it was obvious that the term isn’t sexual. I’m just an immature American so I found it funny.
I just love it when they use traditional Korean music with modern day music, music to my ears *chef kiss*
2:23 *The origins of which can be found in a jungkook drawing*
*The way I wheezed-*
yoongi 99% of the time: putting true historical meanings behind his words
yoongi 1% of the time: yes as you can see here, this scene is a representation of Bang PD by famous Korean artist Jungkook-
Jk: yes that's me boi😏now if you'll excuse me I've got a fight with jin I've got to get to
And yoongi said that this song was more about the sound than the lyrics...imagine his other songs
Zero dislikes. Like it should be. This was amazing guys.
There is always dislikes wherever there is something related to BTS, I think haters never miss a chance
jamy Bts i rly don’t understand why ppl hate on them like they’re perfect??
@@handanturan510 because their favs couldn't do what they did and still doing, or maybe because they just the only thing they know to do, but we don't care do we??
@@jamybts8399 yes you're right 👍💜
Lol if they only knew the more dislikes, the more fire Suga will spit.
And the irony that B-Free was arrested recently makes this video even more fitting. Long live King Suga!
Ugh, when I hear his name itself
I feel disgusted

they paved the way for sooo many people. Now many groups from small company’s are getting know faster and are becoming faster. They changed the whole game. BTS IS THE REVOLUTION
8:48 - True, he is a genius. They all are. Not enough words to explain. They are just... BEST!!! .
the rap in the middle (u know the stuttering) reminds me of rm's "stutter" rap in ddaeng (땡)
Yoooo you’re so smart. I didn’t even notice that!
That's what I felt the first time I heard Daechwita :)
ME TOO OMG
It is. They exchange flows quite often. For example Suga even has some parts of his flow from Shadow on Ugh. It was more noticeable here because the Ddaeng one is such a standout. I'm actually amazed more people didn't realise it.
Ikr! I got goosebumps after hearing that part
I saw a korean hiphop fan who said the "Gwanghae flow" line might also reference the fact that Yoongi's style of rapping is tough and kinda crazy (tongue technology?)
He not only hits us with some damn boss music but he takes us to school. He's really a genius, talented in all aspects and dimensions.
Omg, I totally forgot about Jungkook's Bang PD drawing 🤣🤣

“You won’t know how I feel because you’ve never had any of this “ hard flex indeed 👑💯

SAME!!
Came here after watching yesterday’s muster where the boys performed Daechiwta and loving how you explained this. This is such an apt song they have chosen to perform in this year’s muster.
Thanks for all you guys do for my American self, lol. It's truly appreciated 💜
You guys didn't see the behind the scene of this mv where suga says the king is the old agust d and the other one is new agust d which is confronting him.. did you..
To be fair. They most likely recorded this before the behind the scenes of the MV was released.
Kathya P. So true. Conceptualizing, recording and editing takes time so it’s probably too late when Yoongi revealed it
Yea I saw it
10:08 Hyunta(현타) actually has two different meanings.
One is the one you mentioned Wiseman's Time(현자타임) but use of this word is very limited.
The one that is widely used is Realization of the Reality aka Reality Check(현실자각타임).
The Hyunta used in Daechwita is the latter Hyunta and has nothing to do with the "wiseman's time".
Anyone interested in history of Joseon Era, here are two fascinating movies that will give you a great foundation to understand this MV.
Masquerade: th-cam.com/video/1TnfM5XWOtI/w-d-xo.html (Lord Kwanghae)
The Throne: th-cam.com/video/3vdnCtS0qUo/w-d-xo.html (Sadoseja)
Both movies are amazing, totally worth watching. You will thank me later.
Interesting analysis! I think the king represents yoongi himself in the past, though, so he's actually killing his old self at the end of the MV. This same message is also repeated in another track on the mixtape, 'Burn it', where he talks about burning his old self away. In his line about King Gwanghae, he says, 'A tiger who's gone crazy, Gwanghae flow'. The tiger is probably a self-reference, because in the next verse he says, 'Born a tiger, I'm not weak like you at least'. He said something similar in the song 'Give it to me' on his previous mixtape as well - 'I was born a tiger, I can't live like a dog'. This means in this line 'A tiger who's gone crazy, gwanghae flow' he's actually likening himself to King Gwanghae, who went power-crazy. I think it's possible that he feels like he kinda let all the fame and wealth get to his head a little, or at least felt overwhelmed by them and that he was starting to lose touch with where he came from, a theme repeated across the whole mixtape as well as Interlude: Shadow, so this is him making the decision to distance himself from whatever he has become, and to return to his roots. He wants to 'kill' his old self - in that sense, the rice chest metaphor is perfect, as he's essentially sentencing his old self to death.
I think what I find the most fascinating, though, is the strong theme of duality - the whole song feels like two yoongis fighting, and the MV is really just visual representation of this conflict. The tracks are a mix of 'i'm the best i've got big house big car and big rings' and 'i'm tired, i'm scared of flying and i just wanna land somewhere' - even within the same song you can find him alternating between these two narratives. Idk if I'm imagining this but he even changes his tone a little bit as he switches characters - he vocalises his lines differently and if you listen closely you can hear where one yoongi ends and when the other begins. I think he's wrestling with himself and this entire mixtape is a bit of a tribute to that battle - in a way, Interlude: Shadow served not only as an intro to the second arc of the MOTS story, but to this mixtape as well.
Im not an army,i dont hate bts,i dont have any interest in bts.but when i saw suga's mv,ITSS SOOOO GOOD! And the meaning too! LIKE...HE'S GENIUS! A REAL KING!
And if you take a first step, you'll notice that they are the most interesting group ever.
Then , be an army
Hope that one day you will become an ARMY😊
Thank you for complementing suga.This mv has many meanings. It depends on the person. Suga gave his meaning of the song on the daewichita's music video behind the scenes. You can go check it out if you want:)
When BTS members going to military soon, play the daechwita and we ARMY will march there, lol
Preach
BTS have said many times that they don't want to talk about enlistment. They have said that they would go even if they were exempted. It's not a big deal to BTS because it's mandatory for all men in Korea. By talking about this, you are being disrespectful to their wishes.
Just so you know, I don't want any hate. If I get hate replies, I will not respond.
@@ACLearn it's not really disrespectful
@@ACLearn I think what the OP was saying is that this could be our send off song to any BTS member that's going to enlist. With the original meaning of daechwita and yoongi's ver. That's it, just a send off anthem.
Mom: what are you doing
Me: history online class
A further analysis of he Korean references/phrases really put all the pieces of the songs meaning together. such a helpful video
The way I see it, he's talking about how he became the "king" after they became famouse, and how he managed to tame that growing ego inside of him to make him remember where he came from.
in 고작 그런 이유로 약을 빨다니 애잔하기 그지없네 what I understood is that he's talking about how he managed to produce and write songs that were brining him success(꺾인 적이 없는 매출출출출출출출) and his ego liked this feeling of superiority (thus the thumps up from the king) but when he should be feeling the happiness of his achievments, he found himself struggling mentally and ended up having to take pills to cope with the feeling(not necessarily drugs). the whole song can be interpreted this way. I'm not the best at explaining but I hope you roughly get what I mean
of course understanding a song is very subjective and there's no right answer here, but it's another perspective I guess.
agree
There is more than one way to interpret an art form. This is only one interpretation of many. No one's wrong. It just a different perspective.
@@Anarion4 that's what I said thoguh at the end
I thought the same and especially after shadow a lot of his material has an emphasis on him worrying about forgetting his roots.
I also thought the same.
Thank you for the breakdown of this video. This makes so much more sense to me and the story is so interesting. Hi props to Suga for bringing his story to life! We love Suga!
Wow this song is deeper than I thought, thanks for explaining, and I just have to say these BTS boys never ceases to amaze me with their awesomeness. They're so talented in every aspect and they just keep getting better and growing wiser 💜💜💜
DKDKTV is reading my mind, i can’t
Daechwita is the epitome amazing of story telling. Both the music video and song. Amazing blend of personal struggle and traditional culture. While still managing to flex. Without even knowing the meaning of the lyrics it will hype you up.
friends : how's quarantine going?
me: DAECHWITA DAECHWITA !
i had chills the whole fricking time- I swear..
SAVAGE MIN SUGA JJANG JJANG MAN BOONG BOONG!
ARMY REPRESENTED BY THAT WOMAN, WHUUUTTTTTT THIS IS CRAZY I'M IN!
And the men, we are their posse🤓
That's the reason that I tell everyone that I know. This channel is the best channel ever! 💜
Lmao
The more I watching bts song explains is the more I'm dying in love to them.. Knowing the deep meaning of their song... To those people who mis treat them and humiliating them now what do you think to their success... Love you BTS keep fighting we are Army's behind you no matter what. 💜💜💜
I just love how so many of their songs & especially Suga talk about real stuff.
I think king suga is him himself not the old system. It's a warning for him not to abuse his new high position. That deep down he'll always be slave suga and kill his show off self and stay humble. Imo 🙈
I’ve been waiting on this!
Same!
We’ve all been waiting
Absolutely in awe of this explained series. Thank you for your hard work!
Your explanation of the references to Korean history are fascinating! After watching the original music video I found myself researching the Joseon Dynasty which was what led me here.
Even though suga said this song is more for auditory enjoyment, it has great lyrics
this is exactly what i thought
Yoongi is so smart, and that's so hot.
I was waiting for this.....
After understanding the deep meaning behind every song that dkdktv explains ,it hits different afterwards. Love your channel.
Thank you !!!! There are many who love the BTS /member songs individually for the artwork music & not be necessarily the fandom.
I have super diverse taste in music decades & genres...I have to be really moved somehow, lyrically, beat, visually to love a song/video. It would be selling my soul to like something because it's a popular fad.
I really love knowing what's behind the creation & you are truly blessing me & those that don't speak Korean !
Curiosity was killing me since the MV appeared 🙈
BTS : releases a song
Me: so dkdktv my love where’s the explanation thank you 💜
This is honestly an incredible explanation. Please continue to make more videos.
Lately, I started reading the history of the Korean Empress. maybe Suga himself has royal blood descended from Empress Min of Korea. infact suga's face is similar to the empress. and the story in this song contains many meanings of ancient and present history . it’s just awe
I know he loves Korean culture so much since pre debut days when he wrote Paldogangsan, and then ma city (d boy thing), move, where do you come from etc
I think there needs to be some clarification about the post nut clarity bit. That definition is RARELY if ever used by Koreans anymore.
The most widespread usage of the slang refers to the realization that comes with being confronted with reality. 현타 (hyunta) OR 현실감 타격 OR 현실 자각 타임 literally translates to "hit with a sense of reality" OR "the time you become self-aware of reality"
While the nuance is vaguely similar, only because both definitions describe a sense of returning to a different state of mind, considering the context we can infer the correct interpretation.
In the preceding lyric he talks about having achieved everything he's ever wanted and ponders what is to come next. Suddenly he is met with the reality that there is nothing left above him and longs to look downward and land back on the ground.
I disagree that this line is meant to be a hard flex.
Yoongi and the rest of the boys have talked about this fear of the unknown and the anxiety that come with exceeding all expectations and reaching such heights on several occasions (previous interviews, lyrics (shadow), festa 2018, docuseries).
I love the way how even on the brink of his death he still bopped to his own music
i think this song is about being humble, remembering your past
This song can definitely be interpreted in many ways but Yoongi did say in his Honey Radio a few nights ago that he thought about ARMY which inspired him to write this song.
BEST EXPLANATION?
As always!!👌👏
Thank you!! 💜
IT IS
Of course.
👍👍😊😊
Can be. You’re entitled to your opinion 😉
Me: play daechwita at my funeral and I will come back to life head bopping
Thank you. Was wainting voor this. I learn alot of all yours videos. Please keep gooing
I also saw a comment on insta that basically said the "King Yoongi" represented the bad parts of himself that might have been corrupted by fame over time. But the lower class Yoongi represents himself and the part of him that hasnt changed over time due to fame, and maintains a with a pure purpose. So by shooting the "King Yoongi" he is also defeating the bad parts of himself that were focused on fame or money.
The words “rice chest “ caught my attention, I was wondering what it meant! Thank you Danny for not skipping over it!
I was not expecting all that but that’s such a good way to put it thank you!!!
Knowing the meaning always makes it slap harder!!
Thank you for making
these videos :)
