Who am I.....
Lol nah jk I had to see what the hype was about when I saw it was in English. Lol
Yeah idk bro..... , shit hope u get some clicks off this 🤷♂️.... 🚮🚫
Because of you I just listened to my first BTS song... 😡😩 I’m just as surprised hahaha... btw, the door was propped open and the guy holding the donut was coming out of the shop, the group was outside of the building facing the propped door... in case you didn’t come around to seeing it
Please try to react with other genres too plz ❤
Please do more. They have I would say way better music and yes it's gonna be in korean but the lyrics are way better too. And this song isn't bad but not their best!!!
Can you react to blackpink Lisa and Jennie English rape here is the link to the vidso th-cam.com/video/WbD4BkoPz8w/w-d-xo.html
“..make adolescent girls scream..”
well it’s true tho, i’m only 16...14 years ago
Yeah, I was 16. . .30 years ago. I love these boys so much. 💜 #BTS4AllAges
I was 16... 15 years ago &
My mom was 16... 42 years ago!! Hahahahaha!
I was 17.. 10 years ago 😅💜
true! I was 14 almost 16 years ago too! 92' liners 💜
Was 18 . . 13 years ago
He's not prepared for BTS korean songs... 🤭 He's not prepared for BTS actual lyricism... Not ready!!~ 😆
bruh who tf are u to say that. U don’t own bts and he clearly said this is his first time listening to them
@@hennyecreations I was joking? Like, happy he liked their song and so I was hyping BTS korean lyrics?? I don't understand why are you angry... My comment was supposed to have the energy of these emojis: (≧▽≦) 🤭😆 ~~
"He's not ready" as implying he's probably gonna be really impressed and have more to say about them after seeing the versatility and some of their deeper lyricism... You know, like when fans are really excited about a new album and say "I'm not ready omg~"
@@hennyecreations do you not see sarcasm when its right in front of you?
Loba Étoile bruh you can’t expect everyone to just know that was sarcasm I’m just saying. it’s like the same way how you think I was angry in that comment, do u think it’s fair to just expect you to know that I wasn’t mad🤷🏽♂️
moon child bro who is you😭 she literally changed the comment so it’s obviously different from before...outta here with yo hatin ass
People still associate their fans with being teen girls? That's just plainly disappointing. Such stereotype is a little disappointing
Ikr, it is also a way of telling us we just love BTS cuz they're cool and good looking which is yeah true but they are also good hearted, caring and relatable.
This is what we call living under a rock...
@@mayametodieva5401 True to the bone.
@@urbehaviorissough99 Hmm. Who they are, what they do and why we're by their side is something that transcends explanations.
I think he'll understand after a while. At least he's trying to expose himself to it unlike some people I know
"Preteen adolescent girls" sweats in 26 years old
Same 😆
Never thought I'd catch myself watching anything by BTS, but that was a vibe for real
Amirite?? Lol
Had no clue who it was and I said that after the video. lol. Did I really just enjoy that?
I rejected BTS for so long purely on prejudice. Not sure what exactly happened and how I got turned, but it happened & I've not been anything but happier.
ME TOO I IGNORE THEM JUST BCZ I THINK ITS ALL ABOUT THEIR LOOKS. BUT WHEN I DISCOVER THEIR DISCOGRAPHY AND HISTORY. THAT CHANGE EVERYTHING 💜 this teach me also to be open minded and stop judging.
Oh gosh me too. Totally out of left field for me when I discovered them. Then they became a guilty pleasure. By now I’m openly Army and spreading this good stuff to the world lol.
And here I am 47 years old. Never got into boy bands...not Beatles, not NSync or any of those boy bands in my life. Too much of a “pop scene” rebel. These guys totally turned me...because they’re not a boy band to me. They’re a movement. The kinda movement that the world needs.
"You'll like BTS music if you listen without prejudice" - Yoongi (aka SUGA, the rapper) Language and xenophobia shouldn't be a barrier to great music in the year 2020. You'll be missing out on a LOT of amazing foreign artists then. I rec Daechwita by Agust D (SUGA's alt ego) and MIC DROP by BTS if you're into rap/hiphop. Btw they are known for hard hitting choreography, check out ON Kinetic MV for more of their dancing! And the fandom is actually older with a lot of male fans who appreciate their musical lyricism as well.
🙌🏼💜🙌🏼
!!!!!!!!!
FACTS!!!!
male fan here :)
I could say 3/4 of the fandom is 20+ and above so not really teens but thanks for the view. Mostly heard xenephobic and prejudiced remarks.
Just wanted to say I used to think like you. I didn't listen to BTS for the longest time cause I just thought Oh another boy band but I can't understand them so why would I listen. One night a video came across my recommendations I think it was Black Swan Live on James Corden. I watched it and thought oh I like that. So I ended up watching Fake Love then realized there were CC on the videos. I fell down this rabbit hole and thought... Why was I so reluctant? I found myself listening to all of their music. Watching lyric break down videos. I especially like watching newcomers to BTS and going IKR! They are hard workers, smart and hilarious AF. Humble and they love their fan base like no other artist I have ever seen. ARMY says you find BTS when you need them most. I did. I hope you will too.
Been there, done that. I fell in love with them from Boy with Luv MV. I used to think that they were highly overrated and their path into western countries had been paved by previous Kpop band such as Super Junior and EXO 🤦🏻♀️ but after I watched BWL, little did I know I was digging my own rabbit hole by starting to watch one video after another. Fast forward a year later, im still greatly whipped by these boys. And oh, im a 32 y/o government worker and not some prepubescent school girl lmao 😂
@@aifaasmith. LOL I'm a 42 y/o banker with a 16 yr old son!!! LMAO SOOO not a school girl! Though they make me feel like one!
@@antoinettefinner3488 IKR! Theyre making me tired with this giddy feeling and joy everytime I watch them 😂😂😂 (like I was doing back in school days yearsss before). I often tell my sister that Im too old for this kind of things, but these boys still got me whipped every single time and I dont think I will ever recover from this 😅😁😂💜😍
I discovered bts from watching fan meet and greet😂😂😂suga and v attracted me so i did research and voila im army, 😂😂
@@lilith-4687 RM was the one who attracted me the most, but V quickly became my bias.
Ehh who is gonna tell him they talk about mental health, psychology, social issues, bullying, self esteem, etc in many different genres not necessary “POP” and that most of their fans are around ages from 14 to 60 years old, pls whooo is gonna tell him? Ahha
DUUDEEE If you like dissecting lyrics, BTS is legit the band for you!!! This song is actually not as meaningful as their other songs. BTS explore huge stigmas such as youth, mental health, toxic relationships, loving yourself, and socioeconomic inequalities etc...all their songs have deeper meanings since they are so so involved in the writing and producing aspects of their music. They even play around with language!!
Let us know if you would ever be open to dive deeper into their discography - we can shoot you some recommendations!
But before we do dive in deeper - you can get a better understanding of them from some great introductory videos that ARMYs have made - th-cam.com/video/M40jsKiIcm8/w-d-xo.html, th-cam.com/video/xu0IfBvZMRs/w-d-xo.html
They actually came across the demo for Dynamite while they were working on their new album - they loved how this song sounded in english, and just wanted to give their fans good vibes because of all the horrible things happening in the world right now - Their pronunciation is amazing!!
BTS are all in their twenties - the youngest is 23, the oldest turns 28 this year.
They are literally legends in choreography - they release dance practice videos on their youtube channel - the moonwalk was them just messing around lol.
Thank you for giving BTS a chance!! This reaction was great and I loved that you kept it 100%
YES 💜🙌🏼
THIS
100% this song is just to inject some good vibes and positivity into the world right now, but if you listen to songs like GoGo or Anpanman, they both sound up beat and poppy, but their lyrics are super important and complex. For BTS the lyrics are a priority. They don't just want to put out music that's good to listen to, they want it to mean something, but in this time we're in they thought it was important to give the world something light and happy. This is also their first time singing completely in English so that was a new challenge for them.
omg anpanman🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Correct; BTS did not write the lyrics to this song for once... the Dynamite lyrics mean pretty much nothing deep. That's no shade, just saying... BTS lyrics should not be judged on this song.
This is exactly what I thought when I first heard the song and I’m glad someone else agrees! I absolutely love this song and I think it was incredibly smart of them to release this. If they put complex lyrics and raps in this it probably would have changed the vibe of the song and what they were going for. I think this is perfectly made and just a simple, happy song that we desperately needed at this time. We all love their deep and intricate songs but this is something we’re not used to from them- also being entirely in English- and they did an amazing job!
“I finally understand why they’re as big as they are”, dude, you didn’t even scratched the surface, and let me tell you, BTS is bigger then just music... at least for me💜💜 check out more of their stuff 🌈
amen to that!!!!!!
lol these army peeps need to just chill, actually getting on peoples nerve. like its cool u support them and all but that's its lol stop annoying everyone else who don't have the same opinion as u guys
I dare you to watch DAECHWITA by AGUST D and call that “Kpop”.
I wanna see him react to the Last and say it has no meaning
True check out Daechwita and ON Kinetic Manifesto then tell us what you think.
I wanna see him react to Filter and say he's not attracted to Jimin
贝_ , how can he react to Filter if there’s no MV? He won’t be able to see him. We talking about music and lyrics that Yoongi did. Because the reactor said he likes to decipher lyric meanings
@@elora512 lmfao
who's gonna tell him BTS biggest range of fans are in their 30s-40s XD thank you for taking the time to react to them. BTS are trained dancers who practiced 12-16 hours a day when they debuted 7 years ago so their choreography is always sharp =D I'd love to see you listen to UGH! and see the breakdown of those lyrics. BTS always has wordplay and references in their normal music. Dynamite was just a song they released to make us confident and happy during the quarantine.
You just told him hehehe.
I am 37 yrs old and a mother of 1 and a PROUD Army!
Lmao ikr.
People say they are all teens and I'm right here, sitting in my room, being 24.
@@Kael096 I'm 28 myself I've been an army for 5 years and couldn't be more proud XD
@@lizjung0613 YES love this!! I'm 28 myself he is going to realize soon how wrong he was about the fanbase if he just judges from twitter and their 'fancam trends' which isn't even us it's the kpop fans doing that =(
@@inuyashalovergyal sameee! I've been following them since 2014, not regretting any part of it 😄
Never thought I'd see the day you'd watch a BTS video. My life is complete
the lyrics to their song 'black swan' are incredible, it's about a singer losing their passion for music, it's so heartbreaking i feel like anyone with a passion would be moved by it, regardless of language. i never thought i'd fall in love with a group who speak a different language but now the language barrier isn't even a problem, subtitles and lyric translations are super helpful! i really recommend listening to black swan
Him: I'm a schtickler for details.
Also him, doesn't notice BTS r outside the donut shop.
Ikr 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
i just 🤦ed when he said that hahahahaha
Hahaha ikr..
Lmaoooo I noticed that too.
I was literally looking for this comment, cos If I didn't find one I would have made one myself. The font is perfectly fine LOL
i'm a whole man but i've liked bts for 2 years straight now, this song isn't a good example of amazing lyrics since they didn't write this one themselves but for all the songs they write themselves the lyrics are always on point, and their choreography is always on par with their lyrics. since i've been in the bts fandom for a while i can say that most bts stans arent prepubescent girls, in fact based on studies most of their fans are 30-60 i believe, but obviously that majority isn't really shown often since they aren't as flaunty about their love for bts as little girls are haha
Unrelated but your pfp. 🤣 yoonbum
I'm having Vietnam flashbacks seeing your pfp 😂 it was a masterpiece
Also unrelated : I miss sang woo 😂
52 year old ARMY right here ☝️.since 2015
@@JesSica-re7rv sht HAHAHAH
I'm sure a lot of people have mentioned it already, but BTS are actually a great pick if you want to dissect lyrics! There is a blog owned by a translator, doolsetbangtan, and she has everything from accurate translations to footnotes about Korean expressions and references. Dynamite is basically the one big release of theirs they didn't write lol so a bit hard to find their usual depth but I promise there is plenty of that. I enjoyed your reaction so I really hope you take a look at one of their more lyrically complex songs.
Definitely true, I wish people would be more open to opening the closed captions on some of their Mv's, they could probably get those lyrics that they complain about not understanding.😂
Ernest: bruh! The choreography out there was fire
Me: What will he do when he watches any other bts song?
I was thinking about footwork in DNA and Fire and I felt sorry for him 😂😂😂
I was laughing my butt off thinking "awe he's cute" 🤣
He will lose his mind
This song only their comfiest dance. Other's songs have way more difficult dance
FACTS
Him: "the choreography right there was fire"
Me: "Boy you ain't seen half of it" 🤣🤣🤣
This is one of their more simpler songs in terms of lyrics and choreo.
I’d recommend ‘Black Swan’ for lyrics and ‘On Kinetic Manifesto Film: Come Prima’ for choreo.
This choreo is one of their easy ones lol. just to let you know we probably have the most diverse fandom in the world for example im a 66yr old grandmother from Australia been ARMy for 4 years now and they never ever disappoint me with their music there is something for every taste from rap , hip hop , edm etc etc they change it up all the time. BTW we dont call them a boy band lol.
Right there with you (in my 60's) and in my six decades I've never been a big fan of "boy bands", I just love music! Each of these young men could be a star all by themselves, but together they are amazing! Their writing, composing, producing, singing and dancing skills are second to none. Granny from Alaska
This song is certainly a vibe but the biggest disappointment in it for me is that this will probably be the song that finally lands them at #1 on the Billboard 100 chart when they have had so many other songs which I feel have been more worthy. Their last 4 albums have outcharted and outsold the most popular artists in the world today yet it took this lyrically light, poppy, all English song to finally get the attention of those who have persistently clung to a preconceived ill informed stereotyping of what kind of music BTS does, who they are and what kind of fans they attract. BTW... I’m a 67 yo fan and much prefer this group’s entire discography over most of what I’ve been listening to for many many years.
I feel the same. They deserved a #1 much sooner and it's sad that it's finally an English song that got it for them and not a Korean one (unless, I miss their rapping ...) I hope they come back hard in October with all Korean and blows open the door on the gatekeeping in the West!!!
om but fans will know them now and listen songs from the past
I feel you on this one, that’s the sad truth, songs like spring day for example should be on the top of the charts. And I’m not saying that dynamite is a bad song, i love all BTS songs 💜
@@mayametodieva5401 True. Spring Day is absolute gold!
BTS are the first non-anglophone artist to debut #1 on Billboard. The first, in 50+ years. And I'm willing to bet there have never been many on the #1 spot as a whole if you look at them all and not just debut week. Sadly, there's no doubt they got this now because the song is in English. BUT it's another step forward, maybe in the future they can get #1 with a song they wrote.
:D Dude... They were playing happily in this song. That coreo is like when you do a one minute stretching in the morning for them. It's a song made for their fans to feel better in these dark days and they made simple dance moves so everybody can stand up and shake a leg. If you watch ON-the Kinetic Manifesto, your jaw will drop. And in their live performances, they do it exactly the same without affecting their vocals. They are among the best dancers in the world. As for lyrics, dude... most of their MVs have subtitles in English, click on captions (CC)... and you should check other songs... Because their lyrics are the most profound shit you will ever read in your life. They have concepts that are deeply rooted in Jungian philosophy especially in the last albums, for example. Many of the fans heard of Jung and Hesse, and Ursula K LeGuin because of them (to name just a few biggies). Their lyrics (as most of the time they are the ones writing them) are studied in big universities, exactly because of their complexity. You need to have a highly intellectual education to be able to grasp the full significance of the poetry in them. Also, I am not a teenager, not a mom, but rapidly approaching my retirement years. So yeah, grew up with MJ, Beatles and the rest... but these boys (actually splendid adults in their middle 20s) are at the top of their game and they will remain in history in the big league of artists for their versatility and contribution to music. Make yourself a favor and try them (on the side, not necessarily in reactions). You will understand. Good luck. ;)
Up
all im gonna comment is that their ages range from 23 to 27 almost 28 respectively lol and i do agree that these are just pop lyrics, usually you can capture something deeper from them but since its an all english song i think it did strip them from doing anything spectacular with the lyrics
(a little edit here bc i forgot to mention that the lyrics are supposed to be just that, pop lyrics. they said that the whole point of this song was to make you feel happy and i believe it did just that.)
also edit: im a dude
I can see that and definitely a good move especially when trying to break into a whole new demographic. Didn’t think about that so thank you!
@@TheThirdErnest they are not trying to break into a whole new demographic🤣 they have already sent 4 albums (3 within a year) to the top of Billboard 200 chart without an english song... they have the highest grossing tour in Rosebowl stadium's history beating the record of Taylor swift...
They mentioned during a livestream that the reason they did a English track is to provide support during this pandemic, a track to uplift their global fanbase... they felt the vibe of this song fits the best in English when they heard the demo and decided not to change to korean...
I hope u can check out more of their stuff... They are more than just a boyband... They write produce their own stuff... three of the group members have more than 100 songs credited to their masters... they talk about self love, women empowerment, mental health and philosophical concepts in the lyrics a lot
For example, this last album named Map of the soul 7 was inspired by the book 'map of the soul' which is based on Carl Jung philosophy
They have 3 rappers and 4 vocalists, Their discography is pretty versetile... Hiphop, R&b, Latin, Pop, EDM, Ballads, Neo Soul... u name it, they have a track...
I think u might like the below tracks
ON Kinetic Manifesto Film
Black Swan
Fake Love
Mic Drop
Shadow - by Suga , the lead rapper and producer
Persona - By RM , the leader, main rapper and producer
I mean Kookie’s technically still 22 for like 8 days but close enough I guess:)
@@melovesawyer i decided to just say 23 bc we just entered virgo season 😰
@@TheThirdErnest Black Swan is the song you should react to if you want deep lyrics, its a trap song with very deep lyrics
This is BTS’s “feel good song” in response to the global pandemic. Something to lighten up our feelings after months of misery. Majority of their songs usually make a statement about social issues. And the choreography? You ain’t seen nothing yet! They can sing while doing extreme choreo. For other MVs that will knock your socks off, I suggest you check out Fake Love, Black Swan, MicDrop, On and Not Today. Also see some of their concert performances. BTS is not just a boy band. They are extremely talented young men who can sing, dance, and create music. They never phone in a performance. They are amazing live performers. They work extremely hard, practicing up to 12 hours a day. Of more importance, they have a sense of responsibility in urging young people to be the best they can be. And don’t diss BTS fans as just young women! I’m old enough to be their grandmother!
46 years old here and proud ARMY. These young men really have talent. They write, produce, dance and work hard to do what they do. The Korean language is actually beautiful and they have English subs for thier official MVs. Be open and give it a chance. Most of their lyrics are deep and are influenced by literature, art and Jungian philosophy. So yes they appeal to a wide fan base due to their content and quality of their lyrics and music.
Fun fact: half of BTS fans' age ranges from 20's to 60's . Having teenage girls as fans are inevitable but stereotyping them just bc of fan culture of screeming girls on screen. But hey its okay you are new here. I hope you could also try their other songs, you may not understand it without the subs on but their songs are legit so good. Both the music and the vibes. Their genre on music is diverse like they always try new style and sound. Hope you could also give it a try. Thank You!
I really encourage you to check out their other stuff. They’re EXTREMELY versatile they’ve covered nearly every genre. One good recommendation is their last title track ON. I suggest the ON: kinetic manifesto. The dance moves are insane
If you were impressed by their choreography in this song,you didn't see anything.
If you really want to see them do some dances,would be cool if you checked out at least 1 dance practice from them.
Would recommend BTS - 'ON' dance practice , they go hard there and song is great as well.
Also for a song with better lyrics you could check out fake love,they have some amazing songs tho
ON kinetic manifesto
he didn't see anything
Or mic drop
The way this is one of their easiest choreos
And Fire has amazing choreo
It's kinda disappointing that people who give BTS a chance because of 'Dynamite' is in English, and they don't check out their previous work after watching Dynamite, these people are getting the impression of BTS as a "typical boyband", who sing about happiness.
Meanwhile, the 'School Trilogy' is about the pretty shitty school system in South-Korea, 'The Most Beautiful Moment in Life Trilogy' is about youth, 'WINGS' is about temptation and obsession, 'You Never Walk Alone' is about unity, caring for each other and seeking justice together, the 'LOVE YOURSELF Trilogy' is about self-love (obviously) in which 'Her' is about loving another person very much, 'Tear' is about the end of that love and 'Answer' is about the realization of the most important person in life ("I'm the one I should love"). And now we have the MAP OF THE SOUL series, in which Persona was about that typical boyband who are famous af and always show their smiles and happiness to the world (so their 'Persona' that they put on for the media), and 7 is about facing their "shadow", but not letting it take over, "that which doesn't kill you, makes you stronger".
This is what they miss, if they don't dive into BTS, and I didn't include their Japanese releases and 'Dark & Wild', which is an album that stands on its own.
Yeah but people put themselves in a box with one style you can see by his previous review he's really only in one lane so what do you expect. BTS isn't really for one dimensional people because they cross genres and really put art on multiple levels in their music from their videos, dancing, acting, painting, and even the messages in their music go beyond the surface and quite frankly most people are not mentally up to that challenge. No Shade but for real it's a journey.
If he doesn’t think he’s going to like a certain genre, he’s not going to dive head in. This was his chance to slowly introduce himself.
@@yeetmyselfoffacliff965 It's not about thinking something...it's about experience.
I never thought I'd like KPOP, I didn't know anything about it, but a friend of mine introduced it to me and now I'm a huge KPOP stan. And no, I don't stan the group he introduced me to (which was BLACKPINK), I love other artists and groups way more (ITZY, Stray Kids or TAEMIN). So I just gave a chance to other KPOP artists and they turned out to be my favourite artists EVER.
He not only judged a group by just a single song, he judged a whole GENRE.
"Who am I right now?" just a regular man listening to music 🤷🏼♀️, I don't get the stereotypes around kpop. Like it doesn't make you any more different if you listen to it or not, it's just music from another country with better music videos and lyrics than most of American music right now. Also, the general public tend to mix the BTS ARMY up with kpop fans. Most of the ARMY don't listen to other groups besides BTS, and if we do it's just casually. Our fandom isn't as bad as people
Mae it out to be, sure there's some bad apples Ike every fandom but the majority of people are super nice and accepting. We only get mad if people downright disrespect BTS and discredit their hard work. Those men deserve every single view, album sale, play on the radio, like, fan, etc. They literally came from nothing and built themselves up by themselves. You should watch "this is BTS: intro to BTS (part 1) " by xceleste, it's a very recent video .
BTS are 100% known for their genuine and sincere lyrics so this probably wasn't the best song to look at if you're gonna dive deep into that. I do hope you continue reacting to them with an open mind though. They aren't Western artists and are of course different from what the West is used to. Please don't let the fact that they're not singing in English hinder you from giving them a chance. There are subtitles for every single song, and they work very hard to connect with their global audience. Trust me, I was also very skeptical when I first heard of them almost year 3 years ago, but their songs and their lyrics have made life a little bit better for me, and for millions of others.
You were like me.. 3 years ago was when it started for me too. I was thinking they were just another typical manufactured "kpop" group but boy did they prove me wrong. I'm so glad I was curious and fell down the rabbit hole.. because I've been hurting from losing Michael Jackson over 10 years ago... and never truly admired an artist like MJ until I discovered them.. It's kind of emotional for me to watch Dynamite as you can already guess why.
Just to start off, I'm 30 years old and I don't go screaming at every little thing they do but they sure captivated my attention in a way I haven't been captivated by any artist since artists like MJ and Queen.. BTS started off originally as a hip hop group (2 of their rappers came from underground rap) so they have hip hop roots and gradually expanded to become very diverse musically. They literally started from the bottom and show so much appreciation for their fans while being extremely humble and that's part of why they are really loved and admired aside from their talent in dancing, singing, putting on really creative performances etc. I don't really get into the manufactured poppy groups that just seem repetitive but BTS showed me when I discovered them that they are not one of those simply manufactured boy bands. They produce most of their own music and write their own lyrics which are usually more meaningful and clever than the ones here and another thing I respect about them is that they do not lip sync. They take their craft very seriously as artists and truly want to make the world a better place by creating healing music. What really drew me to them was this genuine aura they have and their charisma. This song was a tribute to MJ and disco, funk in general btw.
I’m a mid 50’s Army parent! You’re reaction is just for this song! The is me meant to be happy, light and simple but instead to uplift everyone away everyone’s clustered mind daily issues and global issues we face today from pandemic, economic crisis and politically issues and unfair justice!!! If you start watching each previous songs, MV, live concerts, and explanations of BTS’ work, you’ll see how deep it will touch you! They address many areas of issues we face!! Also their songs and lyrics are savvy with life wisdom lyrics that will get you straight to your mind and heart! In order to understand about BTS is for you to watch and see many other and choreography with explanations behind all of BTS’ music; such as NO, No More Dream, ON, Bapsae, Fire, Mic drop, DNA, Fake Love, Black Swan, Truth Untold, Epiphany, Pier Piper, with its historical background behind it.
Also make sure you watch Augst D’s Daechita!!! It’s Suga from BTS who also is Augst D!
I’m proud to be an Army parent for all generations who belong to each other and support when our government and other supposedly leading figures are failing our society!!!!
Not many of their songs are as formulaic as this one. A lot of their stuff is talking about overcoming depression and trauma and learning to love yourself as you really are. All their korean songs have English subtitles and separate explanation videos that talk about all the symbolism and deep meaning in the lyrics and images. They also have songs in all different genres. You might find something that you really love.
They're outside the burger and donut store. Not inside.
Also, dying about the comment about the choreo being difficult.
Especially when this is their simplest choreo so far
Exactly!
Can’t believe u reacted to BTS , they’re great !! Coming from a NF fan and A Twenty One Pilots fan. !!! I’m super happy !!! They have amazing lyrics I definitely recommend their hip hop songs like Mic Drop , Ugh , and Cypher series
Same!!💜
these are literally my fave 3 artist out rn

I find it rather fascinating that some people still have this misconception that the majority of the BTS fanbase are "preteen girls". Actually, the core of the fandom mostly ranges 18-35, because BTS' lyrics and artistry tend to have a lot of depth that you wouldn't realize at first glance. Besides, younger people don't go that easily toward other cultures with an open mind, those who do definitely have a bright future ~
"You will like our music if you listen without prejudice" BTS' Suga
They were compared to the Beatles because they are the ONLY group in the world that have matched Beatles with 3 Billboard #1 hit in less than a year (and if you consider their song mainly in Korean, it is even more an achievement). Their fan base are truly worldwide in every continent and many #1 hits & albums in many of countries worldwide. Although they are very versatile, pop is not even really their true style. They have 4 main vocalists & 3 rappers so pop is just one tiny genre they can do like this retro song. And since this is a retro from 60s - today, everything they did in the video was a reflection of it. From the clothes they wear to the choreography, even the get milk ad and freeze camera shot outside the donuts place, MJ moves etc. They said this song supposed to help people to go through this tough time that most people maybe having due to COVID, they want to give positive vibe and energy to their fans like a "dynamite." Their overall message is even better beyond their songs always. Something I rarely see western musicians do regularly. Western media usually put very negative stereotypes on other races and they did the same to Kpop. Example is Kpop doesn't literally mean pop music from Korea because it has almost every genre in it. That name by itself proved how much ignorance they tried to label it as. It is like almost an automatic mind block to others who doesn't like pop to even think of trying Kpop. Besides, language shouldn't even be such a big deal for anyone to appreciate & enjoy good music because do you have any idea how many people around the world that doesn't speak English listens to western English speaking music?
Preteen adolescent girls? Bts fan base is pretty evenly distributed throughout ages from kids to senior citizen but most bts fans are between 20-35 actually 🤣
And 40-60!
bts’s twitter engagement stats recently showed we are 59% female and 41% male. yeah i’d say we’re not all crazed 13 year old girls
!!!!!! Im 25
I slept outside for merch at one of their concerts (yes, we do that) with women in their 40s and 60s.
Yup!! I’m 23 and when I went to MetLife I can honestly say the diversity was STRIKING, never felt so connected to other people and what the best part was how different everyone was it was AMAZING
fr thought i was hallucinating when i got the notification lmao, when their song "black swan" came out i really wanted to know what you would think about it tbh since the lyrics are very meaningful
Why do people always say their fans, the pre-teens, little girls and their moms, teenage girls... You are wrong bruh
this is literally his first time reacting to them. calm down
It's not wrong though, i have nothing against KPOP or BTS or their music, but 99% of their fan base are young girls who hopped on a ginormous bandwagon and like talking about the members more than the actual music.
Because that’s the loud majority lmao
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and lack of knowledge 😊
@@hennyecreations lol im calm, not here freaking out or anything
They cover a wide variety of genres and actually have super meaningful lyrics, with the occasional simple pop song (like this one) sprinkled in as well. This song specifically was made mostly to help cheer people up through the pandemic, as well as pay homage to some older celebrities and legends. I don't think I need to tell you how narrow-minded it is to not listen to their music just because they're Korean, as I'm sure people have pointed it out already. They have subtitles for just about all of their MV's, as well as websites and entire video explanations dedicated to their songs and lyricism. They have the bestselling album of 2020 worldwide. Fans range from an extremely large demographic of various cultures, ethnicities, and of course, ages from all around the world. So not just teens girls as most people who don't know any better and are not into them would have you believe. In general, BTS does not fall into the category of your stereotypical "empty U.S boy-band." (No shade to any in particular.) Yeah though, thank you for the unbiased reaction of their new single! If you choose to check them out any further, they are indeed fascinating and inspiring people. If you would like to check out just one of their many more lyrically interesting songs, next I would check out their "Black Swan" MV with closed captions turned on.
Also don't think I need to tell you this but they were outside, so the lettering on the door was correct. :)
This song is super simple for them, which is what they intended for the fans just something to make us smile and forget about things for a bit. Usually their music has very deep meanings. Their music genres all vary as well from pop to hip hop to ballads and rap and occasionally rock. Their choreo also is the best out there too, again you are seeing them on a simple pop song so no over complicated moves. And the fans are of all ages, races, and religions around the world. They are not your typical “boy band” and we are not typical “screaming teenagers”.
yes, you are literally just screaming teenagers. everything you just said you aren't, the world knows you really are.
@@codywebb1174 well obviously they do have some of them, and you know they are typically the loudest especially on Twitter and shit. But for the most part, BTS fans are chill and very dedicated.
@@codywebb1174 Debbie is right. I'm 48, far from a teenager. I just became a BTS fan this year. I've been a fan of many boy bands over the years, and BTS are light years beyond any of them. (I'm not counting the Beatles because I don't think of them as a boy band. Come to think of it, I don't really consider BTS a boy band, either, but they do fit the mold by Western standards, so it's easy to call them that). They cover so many different genres of music, they have meaningful lyrics (not so much on Dynamite but they didn't write the lyrics for this one), their choreography is insane, the music videos are super cinematic...I could go on. But above all they are just humble, genuine people who have a strong bond with each other and with their fans. I've never seen anything like it in the music world, to be honest.
@@codywebb1174 Dude, people in their 40s and 60s love BTS. I'm 30 myself... Yes, there ARE fans that are screaming teenagers but do not generalize all fans as that. I'm sure they wouldn't be THIS huge if it was just little screaming kids.
Cody Webb Who TF do you think are selling our their stadium tours, making MOTS:7 the best selling album of 2020 world wide, and selling out their merch/endorsements (Line, Hyundai, Samsung, Starbucks, FILA, etc) and even doing hundreds of worldwide charity projects??? News flash, teenagers really don’t have the capital to do that. Although there are a portion of young teens the large majority are adults in their 20’s and up.
Hi Ernest :) I just stumbled across your channel and as BTS fan since 2014 who is also in the older age range, I enjoyed your reaction. You are right that the song is very much a summer bop. The guys wanted to do something fun & bright given the situation with covid19. While it is true the digital age has been a bonus for BTS, it is not the only reason why they have blown up. The main reason is a combination of their talent, authenticity & genuine love for their music and their fans. They actively participate in the writing and production of their music (I think this might the one exception) and they focused on telling stories that were important to them and other young people - across their discography they deal with everything from youth alienation and empowerment, socio-economic inequality, class, mental health (including depression and suicide), the impact of neoliberalism on today's youth and more. They've draw inspiration from literature, world events & even Jungian psychology. And its this story telling and openness which has connected them with their fans and it is the key reason that their fans are so loyal. If you do decided to check out some of their other songs, all their main release songs have English translations (just turn on the cc) & the choreography is terrific (the choreo for Dynamite is actually at a very easy level for them in comparison to the choreo they usually do). I would suggest: Mic Drop Remix (with Steve Aoki). Blood Sweat and Tears and Spring Day. Their earlier stuff is also much more rap heavy and their Cypher series is well worth checking out, as is UGH and Daeng (these aren't main releases but you should be able to find uploads with english translations). Thanks again for checking them out and for your honest reaction!
Not just preteen or adolescence....I'm 46 and been around since debut. The fanbase is more diverse then what you think.
The moon walk..Jin was trying to be goofy,that’s why it wasn’t “perfect” he knows that he can’t do it right..
and?
Nice to see a reactor who doesn't overreact, gasping and screaming at every single scene of the video.
True !
we love that!
right?
Because he seems so real....I would love for him to do more reactions to BTS videos. I feel he would like them BUT at the same time be honest in his opinion (I hope I am making sense).
Thanks for reacting honestly. I'm glad you liked it. Just a heads up though. You can't really understand BTS just by watching a couple of songs. Trust me. The reason theyre so big goes waaaaaaaaaaaaay deeper than that and it's really hard to explain it in words to someone who's new to them. I know that on the surface they look like a run of the mill boyband but they're really not and it took me a while to get over my own prejudice aswell. When i finally dug a bit deeper i wanted to smack myself for not giving them a real chance earlier. They've dipped their toes in a lot of music genres ranging from hard rap to rnb to emotional ballads and although the lyrics of this song happened to be pretty simple (which they didn't write themselves btw), their usual lyrics (which they do write themselves) are actually a huge component of their success because they're often very well written and emotional, which is aparently what you look for. Granted some small nuances might not translate well sometimes but we have really great translators in the fandom who explain everything down to wordplay and the cultural context of the lyrics so analysing them is really not as impossible as you think it is. I personally am a fan of theirs because of the relatability of their lyrics, their versatility, personalities and overwhelming sincerity that they approach both their music and fans with. They're seriously just a group of really good guys trying to make a positive impact on the world. So trust me when i tell you, you can't really know what BTS is about unless you delve really deep.
Oh and btw if you ever react to more of their songs, i just wanted to point out that sometimes the subject of some songs might appear to be about one thing (for example a romantic partner), when in reality it isn't. The meaning of the lyrics are often a lot clearer if you know the guys and their story. So just keep in mind not to always take their lyrics at face value if you ever do react to more of their stuff :)
who's gonna tell him that bts is all about REAL LIFE lyrics bruhhh im soooo wanna come at him and do a bts marathon with him to bring some enlightenment
Oh dang I'm surprised you reacted to them, I'm here for it! Definitely a vibe
BTS is the biggest musical act int he world, BTS has 100 million fans all over the world. They are the most loved and respected people in the world. This song and BTS doesn't represent the whole Kpop industry. BTS does all genres, not just pop. They started as a hip hop group. They have the best rap line, vocal line and dance line. BTS made it because they are just too amazing to be held back. Many in Korea and America have tried to stop their success because they felt threatened. It took BTS to break into American music industry, driven solely by Armys, American radios refused to play them. I am 55 and have been a Beatles fan for over 40 years. I've never loved or resonated with Beatles the way I do with BTS. People who are not Armys will never get it. They will never understand why Armys are the most powerful, dedicated, devoted, passsionate and organized fandom in the world. They are not just a boy band but a movement.
you refuse to listen to them just because they sing in korean????? bro c’mon we are in 2020. anyway I will like to hear your thoughts in, ON, Black Swan and ddaeng by them as well.
(sorry for my bad English)
That's what pushes most people away at first, but if he looks a bit deeper he might, at the very least understand why they in particular are such a big hit.
That pun was completely intended by the way.
what does not wanting to listen to music in a language you can't understand have to do with it being 2020? lmao get over yourself
@@kyzak Calm down I don't think they we're trying to be mean or have a big ego, most people just look at the cc's on the video's which are done by BTS' company themselves. On top of that one of the members is fluent in English.
I myself am not saying it's bad to not want to watch/listen to something you don't understand, but different languages shouldn't have people hold prejudice against it just because they don't understand.
So in short the comment meant that the lone fact that he wouldn't listen to it because of the different language, meant that he held a certain prejudice. 🤗
kyzak I don’t know what country you are from but where I’m from we grew up listening to music and watching movies in English(and that’s how I learned the language) so I am used to listening to things that I didn’t understand at all, that’s why it doesn’t make no sense TO ME why he didn’t want to hear something only because is in other language, and the 2020 thing is because it’s so old and dumb you get stuck only in your culture and don’t give a chance to amazingly great artists that exist outside your country just because they don’t speak the same language as you, sorry to say but that is really dumb.
(I’m not fluent so may have some mistakes)
I had the same issue with the different language, but once I stopped giving a crap about it... Oh God kpop is pretty cool and some high quality shit, specially in visuals.
But the problem is that here in Mexico ppl can be very mean to kpop fans, which is why I don't say I listen to kpop with most ppl :(
Spring day is a very deep song. Please listen to it and read the lyrics.
Also BTS makes a lot of heart touching and supportive songs for their fans for example, 2! 3!, stay gold and many more. They also do love yourself campaigns which is basically to spread the word of loving ones self before attempting to love someone else. The talk about their own problems too so fans(armys) don't feel alone with whatever they're going through. For example, one of the rappers, Suga was extremely poor before joining BTS and if he had a $2 meal he would not be able to afford a bus back home. He also maked some songs about his depression and anxiety so that armys who have them don't feel alone.
Omg my two world's are combining!! I first discovered your channel for NF reactions and now you're doing BTS?? 😍
I like them personally. I listen to literally almost every genre so it wasn't difficult for me to get into korean music. They have cool personalities and have great songs. No matter if you like their music or not, you gotta give them respect they do numbers.
This is one of the BEST reactions i've ever seen from someone who doesn't listen to Kpop. You kept everything 100% honest and I'm happy you genuinely liked it. If you do wanna listen to a BTS song that is more on the higher level in terms of lyrical content I HIGHLY recommend you react to the video called Black Swan with the captions on
With this new bts song I've seen many young (my 4year old included) and old and non Kpop give a positive reaction... This song is what we need to lighten the mood with all the craziness going on around the world in 2020
ERNEST!! i'm so happy to see you reacting to something totally different than your normal stuff!!! and it was so fun to see your initial reaction to the song
"are they all hype" bruh who are you talking about? BTS aren't some new and upcoming artists lol. It's been a decade.
Right? And ehhh comparing them to *NSYNC and others like that is just icky for some reason
Seven years to be exact...
Why would the font be backwards if the door was open he was outside not inside. So with the door closed it would have been right....
yea idk what he was talking about lol
Yeah, I thought it was weird 'cause BTS is meticulous about details x)
Honestly what i was thinking bc even after seeing they were outside he never corrected himself so i just thought maybe he was just a lil slow on catching that
No shit lol such a stickler
I think he thought kook was walking into the restaurant instead of outside 🤔
Thanks for giving your honest review and I always appreciate when people are honest about what they do and don't like about something. As a 34 year old in London, I became a fan of BTS this Feb and they got me through COVID without feeling lonely despite being in lockdown on my own. I first fell in love with their personality on an interview, then I really liked their dance practices and was completely blow away. After listening to a few of their track when i was admiring their dancing, I realised I liked their music and when you dig into it, it's a rabbit hole of talented songwriting with thoughtful & intelligent lyrics, which is unusual for any artist these days on the charts. Then I don't know if I should tell you guys about the storyline and hidden meanings in their music videos and webtoons as your friends might not see you for a week if you fall down that hole.
Lastly, none of their music videos compare to their live performances. Yes, they dance and sing live.
This is so funny how this was an actual VIBE! 😂 never heard a BTS song before either ! But thought Ernest reacted to them? For sure going to check out this reaction! I love that you slowly just started bobbing your head! 😂👏🏼
It's too bad that what's stopping you from doing lyrical breakdown is that they sing in Korean. All their MV's have English translations and there are countless of Lyric translation videos that are mostly accurate. Part of their genius in my opinion are their lyrics and versatile discography. Not only are they incredible performers but they mostly write their Korean lyrics and produce a lot of their songs either for their group or solo projects.
He probably can't read that fast and has to stop the video every 5 seconds, or he's just too lazy to do any research.
Rachael Lynn there is that
The point of this song was simply to amuse people. BTS usually produce songs with deep messages, but this particular song is not theirs ... They are not fluent in english. Someone offered them this song in english and it seemed like a good opportunity to cheer on their fans. They always remarked that they are proudly Korean and have no obligation to sing in english. This song was released as a single and BTS already said that we shouldn't expect a full English album.
Currently BTS is working on the production of their next album which will be released approximately in November.
PS: BTS's music videos always have subtitles (to activate) and the other songs are always subtitled by their fans (ARMY) in multiple languages. There is no excuse not to appreciate BTS's music.
This is probably one of the best reactions about "Dynamite" simply because he seems so authentic....which means he should do more BTS reactions videos as I don't think he will be influenced by anybody (and thus he will truly tell you if he likes it or not).
Something with music I've learned throughout my 18 years of being alive is that with music there is no language barrier and that music is truthfully universal, because of BTS I've actually started to learn Korean. Trust me if you take the time to really get into BTS like who they are individually and as a group along with their message your love for them will grow infinitely. My ex introduced me to them back in 2017 or the Wings era and I've watched so many videos on each of them. They're all so loveable and want the best not for their fanbase but the entirety of the world.
You HAVE to do "Mic Drop w/Steve Aoki" one of my fav BTS song and videos. Hip Hop vibe w/ off the hook choreographing. This was simple moves for them. They are pretty amazing. Ya my teen daughter got this mom screaming for them 😂
Mic Drop got me into BTS
Mic Drop got me into BTS
"The choreography right there was fire." Uhhh. Who's gonna tell him?
To give you some facts: The oldest member is born on 1992 the youngest is 1997. Their fans are like 34% 30-40 years old.
They are the only singers/group who earned 3 number 1 album after the beatles.
Thanks for giving a honest opinion! If you're interested in them you should check their other songs tho it's korean, there's an english subtitles.
I subscribed to you when you started reacting to and breaking down TOP and I'm so pumped to see you branching out of your comfort zone to get into a new genre! That being said, BTS has been around for 7 years now and in that time they've made rap, hip/hop, rnb, ballads, house and more!! They're so versatile and talented - you'll never get bored watching and listening to their stuff.
I just want to say, That our Fandom is not just screaming preteens with their moms. We are a Fandom with different ages, gender, ethnicity, and languages. I am 34 and love BTS for everything they stand for. Do you know they spoke at the UN General Assembly. What music artist have we heard of that has spoken at the UN, with an amazing speech, that touch lives. They are more than a boyband.
Bro I tried getting into kpop because my friends were crazy into it and i wanted to see what was up. But as soon as I started watching the music videos I couldn't finish any videos because they were to good looking that I was constantly flustered and embarrassed so I never got into it.
what an odd way not to get into an artist.
lol they were too attractive AH my eyes!
BTS is not kpop.
Sariel yep they are a South Korean boy band 😊 also worldwide superstars
Maybe you should watch their introduction video. Go checkout *"This is BTS | Introduction to BTS"* and *"BTS nobodies to legends 2019"* by xCeleste. We don't stan them just because of their visual.
Dont look at Jimin then. You cant handle him😂
This is my first BTS song...I was half expecting wild Bruno Mars to appear.
I enjoyed your reaction. Thanks for doing BTS! They’re great artists.
WHOA this is coming from a pretty old subscriber who used to follow your Em songs breakdowns and I know how honest you always are in your videos so watching this was REALLY a big surprise !
BTS might not be my current favorite kpop band but they're the one who got me into it, and trust me kpop really isn't what you would expect from the outside.
Firstly, although "kpop" contains the word "pop" and might allude you to think that most of the genre is that way, it's a very wrong assumption, kpop is very varied, some bands might be more versatile than others, but for BTS for exp, you'll find literally any genre of music in their different songs, they can go from funky pop to classical vibes to hip hop to ballads, If you're willing to dive deeper into their discography and go past the "mainstream" songs, you'll keep getting surprised everytime !
Second thing, I know the whole language thing might make you feel like you wouldn't listen to kpop much because you can't understand them, I went through that as well, but some kpop songs can get really REALLY deep, and the lyrics are definitely more than just your average feel good song
( this is also not the case for all kpop music videos but for a lot of them there is the english caption option to follow the meaning ! and for those who don't you can always find lyrics video fanmade that you can follow as well )
These are some recommendations that I really think you might enjoy that have pretty deep lyrics and have more rap !
- Suga (from BTS) feat Suran - So Far away : th-cam.com/video/1ptYIFedcnQ/w-d-xo.html
- Changbin feat Bang Chan (from Stray Kids) - Streetlight : th-cam.com/video/kIbMpRuavjw/w-d-xo.html
- BIGBANG - Loser : th-cam.com/video/O6T7hTSuh0M/w-d-xo.html
- Stray Kids - Maze of Memories : th-cam.com/video/WHDH0iCxr2k/w-d-xo.html (this is one I really hope you'll listen to, even if the english translations aren't 100% accurate, I think that as someone who loves rap you can still enjoy the amazing flows and rhymes they have and you can feel it)
Also one last thing, the whole kpop fancams on twt can be very off putting to people who never got into kpop, I've never been into that either so I totally understand you, but just letting you know that like any fanbase, there are immature ones everywhere, so I hope you won't let that make you think it's a general thing, I really hope you can try to dive deeper into kpop, even if you don't react to those I suggested, try listening to them at your own time ! peace
omg i can't believe you finally got to them, and on this of all songs! this is so different from what they usually do and I'm kinda nervous to see what you have to say 😬
edit: omg thanks for giving them a chance, so appreciate the honesty! and I got so excited when you mentioned level of concern because that is so similar in that it was motivated by the covid lockdown. they put out this song specifically to help bring joy to a world that has had a really shitty year 😭
fyi they do have some deeper lyrics and such on different songs but, like you said, this one is very much pop and more focused on feel good and not lyrics
5:29 Pop songs are not going to have emotional lyrics. 😭😭😭 With the exception of this song most BTS songs are so emo. Even the very light sounding ones touch on important subjects.
This particular song was one that BTS decided not to change the lyrics to their own. They just liked how it sounded so much they decided to keep it in English.
Here’s a lyric breakdown blog of anyone is curious: muish.wordpress.com/bts-directory-of-ramblings/
7:36 ‘Pre-teen adolescent girls screaming’ well, yeah when at a concert or performance the fans will scream. Same for fans at sport events and other performances. Those pre-teen girls are also buying books about Carl Jung’s Map of the Soul and organizing philanthropic works. I know you probably aren’t aware of that but the ‘screaming girls’ stereotype is usually described to look down on young women. Because people think their excitement is empty headed.
My advice is to really think twice before making any judgment on BTS and their fans. The US media can’t report on anything deeper than a shallow puddle when it comes to BTS, unless you research please keep sweeping judgements to the minimum. (Not trying to be rude just really hope you can understand what I’m trying to get across to you)
12:18 until the ‘hype’ about BTS is actually discussing their lyrics, musical talent and political risks they took under the last Korean president while have support only from their small music label, then none of that ‘hype’ is as big as BTS is themselves. It’s just a pale shadow.
As for that digital age thing, yeah. They went online bc of how the Korean variety shows chose to treat them. Their CEO got fed up with it and kept them away from those shows risking the loss of local public promotion. Their popularity grew an online platform that is owned by a company that owns stock in what was a bigger music label. That parent company controls (still) the Korean web search engine that won’t allow BTS good articles to stay on the top results for any significant amount of time. Even if those articles are highly upvoted.
I know you are applying what you know of the Western music industry to BTS but they didn’t ‘make it’ with support of that industry. They made it first with the singular willful support of their fans across the globe and the entertainment industry glommed on in anyway they could. Radio didn’t see fit to play them but DJs pushed and pushed to get fan clicks. Writers wouldn’t research but inserted their names just for media engagement. The fans know all this but the public is ignorant. There is so much more to say but I know all this info is going to be viewed as a bit fanatical. BTS isn’t signed to a US label with exception to a distribution deal. The normal industry rules don’t apply to them bc the US isn’t making money from them. All they can get is ratings and clicks.
Thank you for your words. Yup...public wouldn't look deeper past the surface and always take everything at face value until they are curious. Fans care and see everything because true fans will read up and research abt their favourite things. Fans are not mindless or shallow.
Love this💜
Lmfao relax
Haha you are really honest. I enjoyed your reaction. Thanks for calling me a pre-teen girl I feel young again. 🤣🤣🤣
Like what others mentioned, if you're into dissecting lyrics, BTS is a must. Their thoughtful and relatable lyrics is one of many reasons why they're so big around the world.
BTS is known for their beautiful & meaningful song that they themselves participated in the writing & producing. Said by 1 of the members (i cant remember who) that Dynamite was not originally part of their upcoming album in October. It just happened that they loved the vibe & how it sang in english when they first heard the demo, so they didn't change the lyrics into korean. So this song was made for not only us their fans but for the people around the world to enjoy & spread happiness especially during this pandemic. Thankyou for being open minded while reacting to them❤
Please don't hate the moonwalk. They are just keeping it real & it wasn't meant to be perfect, but fun.
"pop songs are not gonna have crazy like super emotional lyrics"
bts pop discography: uhmm...
Erika Mae Hernaez, 👁👄👁
One thing I love about BTS is that they bring different generations together. Me (30), my mom (55), and my grandma (92) all love BTS and are part of the Army. Their lyrics, dancing, and personality are what draw us in. They are truly amazing people.
If you can get past the fact their songs are in Korean, I think you'd enjoy their lyrics. They're insightful, poetic, and very relatable. I recommend Interlude: Shadow, Lost, Sea, Spring Day, and Fake Love. BTS often sing about stuff like mental health, it sets them apart from other kpop groups.
Seriously dude I'd really be interested in your opinion, so give their Korean songs a shot. Most MVs have English subtitles too.
37 year old mom here, just become a BTS fan! I can't stop, they are AMAZING!!!! The BEST of the BEST!!!! You will be hooked! ❤❤❤
💜🙌🏼💜
All I’ll say is they’re really big here in Korea where I’m currently stationed. Like that you are expanding that scope though!
I always wanted to check them out but I’m not a fan of trying to understand through cc because stuff is lost in translation
@@TheThirdErnest There are fan sites devoted to translation, lol. And videos explaining the cultural context, idioms, etc. It's a serious rabbit hole, dude :) Oh, if you look at the stats on their fans, there is a significantly sizable portion of male fans. It is a Western mistake to make boyband assumptions about BTS, comparing them to N. American acts. And the choreo here is NOTHING to them. They sing amazingly live doing far, FAR more difficult routines. This is BTS Light. Watch a live version of "Tear". They'll blow your freakin' doors off.
@@TheThirdErnest Trust me.. It's worth it for BTS!!!! I'm honestly grateful for their existence. This is coming from someone who grew up listening to hip hop and rap in the 90's and early 2000s and some rock, pop, r&b here and there then electronic music.. They are very diverse in their music and have roots in hip hop. x) It's just that this song was meant to be simple to help cheer people up in quarantine.
@@TheThirdErnest If you were not ready to get down the rabbit hole, I suggest you to stop listening, or being curious of BTS. Because once they got your heart, you'll be there for life. Just so you know. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt lol. There's soooo much about BTS, aside from the music and appearance.
They're big all over the world - Korea was actually one the last to finally embrace their own superstars, lol
The fact that I’ve been subbed to you for almost 2 years cuz of your NF reactions. I never once thought of you reacting to bts haha. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I recommend mic drop, on, idol, fire
i’m happy you’re finally reacting to them!! i discovered you because of your reactions to tøp and the breakdowns of their lyrics, and i’ve been wanting you to react to BTS for the same reason ever since then. all of BTS’ official music videos have english captions, and fans (army) provide english lyric videos for all of their songs that have been released. these are obviously not very deep lyrics like you’ve already said, but they delve into lots of hard hitting topics in a lot of their songs. i immediately thought of you when watching the videos for their songs Interlude: Shadow and Black Swan. I’d love to see you listen to these without worrying about the language barrier since the lyrics are provided. i think you’d really love them, they go beyond being a ‘boyband’
I wish people were like " I'm open to all ,after all music is music" instead of "kpop is not my thing and I don't get it" people are too overly prejudice
That was the wrong song for your first reaction to BTS!
@@beluuzz That's true, but not everyone is going to be introduced the same way. If we want him to understand it, we have to wait for him to try to understand it himself.
wow this is also what i thought when watching the vid lol the lyrics & choreo in dynamite are not their best, but they succeeded on giving the vibe, joy and positivity
It's a start. BTS is a lot of things, they have a diverse discography but sadly people like to see them in a single light because they're mostly unwilling to delve into it especially with the "language barrier." Nonetheless, BTS has quality in their production so pick and choose any song and you'll find something of depth and merit.
i had to look twice when i saw you react to dynamite, i subscribed to you when i saw like your NF reactions and it was so exciting for me to see you do this. since i know you appreciate the lyrics and rhyme schemes i would highly recommend looking into the solo work by the 3 rappers of BTS. RM and Suga both came from underground rap, and always show mad respect for it. I'd also suggest some of the group's songs like Hip Hop Lover, and DDENG (plus the explained video by DKDKTV), as well as the track UGH! (again with the explained video by DKDKTV). This is a group that you will not regret getting to know, especially the rap line.
anyway, mad love. Thanks for making my day
Oohh I love the fact that you're so honest and don't hesitate to say that before you even start the video 👌🏾
I actually really enjoyed your reaction because of the honesty and I felt like you really did enjoy it so yeah props to you 😁
I also recommend some other songs (with CC on so you can catch the lyrics) there's tons being recommended already and I agree with The Last by Agust D (Suga of BTS) and maybe Black Swan or Louder than bombs (two of my personal favourites) if you wanna get a feel for the type of lyrics they write 🤗 ON and Fake Love are also amazing - their lyrics as well as the choreo, you'll really be shook with those trust me 🤭
CNN "According to a press release, "BTS sings of joy and confidence, treasuring the little things in life that make life truly valuable and special" in the single.
Wowww I followed you for your nf reactions and I never thought I'd see the day you react to bts as well. They also have some rap I think you should check out if you would consider reacting to them again. I would recommend outro: tear by them, great reaction by the way and thanks for the honest opinion 😁
I'm 57 this yr and I love BTS, this song got me hooked and they are extremely prolific when it comes to composing, producing, they do it all
Yes, that's their real skin...flawless and beautiful. Thank you for reacting to BTS. 💜
I just want I to say thank you! I've always loved your reactions and the way you analyzed lyrics!
This song was a song to help everyone lift up their mood after everything that has happened during 2020. They wanted something that could help everyone because they are highly aware of the reach they have across the globe. At first, based off what they said during their live stream yesterday, they weren't sure if it was a good time to release a song, but the more they worked on it, the more they enjoyed the song. Personally, this song has really helped, so I'm over the moon that you gave them a shot!
Also, pardon me if I’m wrong. You came into this thinking they wrote their music, and I really appreciate that you recognize their craft! The members all work really hard in creating their songs, medleys, and lyrics! Especially the rapline
I have some recommendations if you want to give them another shot! :)
I would recommend listening to their most recent albums. Which are-
1) MAP OF THE SOUL : 7
2) Love Yourself ‘Answer’
3) Love Yourself ‘ Tear’.
I recommend : ( My personal favorite sidetracks. I’ll keep descriptions short.)
Sea - A hidden track song that's meant to show their struggles that got them to were they are.
Paradise - A song telling someone that it's ok to not know where you're heading in life, but keep moving and be happy with we're your heading.
Far away - A song created by Suga ( Min Yoongi - the 2nd eldest member ). This song means a lot to me because of the expressions he uses to convey the message of falling down over and over, but he still chooses to dream about a better day.
MAP OF THE SOUL : PERSONA ‘Persona’
MAP OF THE SOUL : 7 ‘Interlude : Shadow’
MAP OF THE SOUL : 7 ‘Outro : Ego’
( These three tracks are performed by the rap line. Persona - Namjoon/RM, Shadow - Yoongi/SUGA, and Ego - Hoseok/J-HOPE. I believe the names speak for themselves. )
Tomorrow - The song shows they’re hard work and dedication day after day to have a sea de of belonging. They’re telling their fans that no matter what obstacles you face, no matter how many times you fall, keep going for a brighter tomorrow.
Answer : Love Myself - I think the name speaks for itself!
Epilogue : Forever Young - A song that expreses their hope for recognition ( this was before they broke through in Korea or the USA ). They are aware they won’t have attention forever, but they’ll always be together
2! 3! - This song was meant to counsel fans when BTS were being accused of plagiarism, accused of buying their fame, accused of things that I don’t personally want to bring up again. This was a song that was meant to show they will move forward with their fans. They’ll climb the mountain facing them hand in hand with ARMY. (ARMY - fan base)

I hope this was helpful, and sorry for any grammatical errors. I was just so excitedly see you react to them honestly, because I know I can trust your opinion!! ❤️
omg my fave reactor and one of my fave groups I never thought this would happen I’m so happy ahhh😭🙌🏼🥺
We appreciate the honesty and the open mind ^^ This song was literally made just to cheer up fans during the pandemic so that’s why it’s a pure pop track. Their music has some of the most meaningful and well thought out concepts and lyrics that I’ve ever seen. They take inspiration from all sorts of places and don’t have one set genre. I’m sure everyone can find at least one BTS track that they vibe with and I’m sure you’d be surprised with how deep it goes. For deeper songs/songs with interesting concepts I would personally recommend Black Swan, Ego, or Shadow.
