• Non Korean Kpop Idols ...
Boy bands, Love them or hate them, they’ve been around for quite a while now.
Since getting their start with The Beatles in the 60s, the image of boy bands steadily evolved. The 70s brought the Jackson 5, The New Kids came to the Block in the 80s, the 90s golden age shone with the BackStreet Boys and N'Sync. In the 2010s we saw a revival of boy bands starring One Direction.
Now in modern days Asia, and more specifically Korea has given us a new wave a better, faster, stronger boy bands with BTS paving the way. How did BTS and Korean boy bands succeed where western artists have fallen by the wayside?

And now BTS is giving a speech with the Obamas and other famous and influential people for the class of 2020's graduation event
Catherine ikr! date is June 6 12pm pst
Tiffany Tang this is what I was gonna ask! Heheh thank you! You read my mind even before I thought about it
Tiffany Tang since we are at it do you know when their next self produced albums coming out? I cant seems to find the date?
I'm proud to be part of the 2020 Graduates
Simran I forget the exact date, but I believe their Japanese album is coming out in July and the one that they’re experimenting with by being in complete control of now is in the early stages, so we don’t have a date for it yet.
I really love one Direction and now that bts are the top band the only thing i'm gonna say that they deserve it...
jeno'sbceps Finally someone who respects both groups!
The respect tho
@@sara-uj4om but one direction is manufractured also bts
Estela Angeles what does that have to do with respecting both groups?...🤨
THANK YOU for respecting BTS even though your fave is 1D ❤️ that's very rare unfortunately
i just hope the radio and spotify give bts a chance like other pop artists , this xenophobia situation is really unbearable
Coco
To be fair despite bts not getting much radio play I have actually heard their music on radio : mic drop Steve Aoki , fake love , make it right feat lauv, boy with luv feat halsey , I would give it prob a month that it lasted here in San Diego. Idk how it is with other cities
@BNOZ99 ! if their music wasn't good why would they be global and accomplish so much. It's perfectly fine if you don't like their music I could care less but don't try to act like xenophobia doesn't exist. Also, most of the songs in other languages that they play on the radio are in Spanish which is the second most spoken language in America.
I AM GONNA START DANCING IN MY CAR
In Ireland they don't play kpop at all. It sucks.
@BNOZ99 ! are you implying that the songs played on radio are of good quality?....
Why everybody forgets HANSON 😔
Also, BTS doesn’t seem desperate for fame as other artists. They don’t ask people to go vote for categories they’re nominated in, we don’t even know if they care for it or not. And often they’re clueless about their own fame. They don’t act as if being relevant is that important. All of these other artists using their bodies and good looks to keep you entertained and there’s BTS enjoying art, painting, dancing, talking to us, sharing music or exercising! Normal things, they’re so relatable. To me, that’s why I find them so interesting and worth of my money and time. Their company’s business approach is very subtle but effective!
But bts just wants money and their losing the message because it's too much trophies and that can make the schedules heavy
Estela Angeles losing the message ? Really ? Did you listen to their last album ? The fact that they want to produce only by themselves their next album and sharing the processus to the fans is enough to say that they are still communicating with us.
@@estelaangeles2346 I would completely accept if they would go for the money cause that's what gives them opportunities to grow and it's a life-goal that a lot of people have, but with the MASS of different content for free and the depths of meaning they have in everything they do, as well as the quality and new ideas they coming up with (Which actually isn't needed anymore), I really don't think they just want money and i really don't know where they're actually losing their message?
Estela Angeles how would a company operate without money? Money is a necessity and BH will do anything necessary to get it. Think of all the people working behind these massive success. It’s business, money has to come from somewhere. That’s up to their company not up to the members themselves. Also, I don’t think their message has changed, they however have grown a lot and learned a lot. Everything they do has consequences unfortunately, so rather I think they’re being careful and more aware of their impact. We receive not only a lot of free content but a lot of love and attention from them, so in a way it balances out!!
@@hvna911 do you know the lyrics of fake love ?
The fact that almost all of these comments are about BTS already says something lol
I’m looking for comments about me😌
@@KimSeokJin-ue8if T-T
Sefie Loposso I’m dumb can someone tell me wtf that means 😂
Not really
Then get out of the comments....
Lmao Jin as “the shy one”, Jk as “the baby” and Tae as “the bad boy”.... something is not right here
I just commented the same thing 😂😂
Jk doesn’t act like a maknae sometimes, but other times he does...
Jin is, well, WORLDWIDE HANDSOME you know confidence level 1000000%
Tae “I’m a good boy”
Sksksksks
yh i thought the same thing
Actually 😂😂
lmao taehyung literally said it himself "i am good boy" in that one interview
BTS are literally the most streamed group 11B streams and spotify is not even available in korea
Really?
jezkwon yep
Not available in Russia either
How?????? Why?????
@@antonioburtman3559 yess found and african army. I am from Cameroon and there are so many fans here too. We don't even have itunes and spotify, imagine if we did
Let me just say....I am so proud how far BTS has come. They truly deserve to be amazing and make it into all sorts of music markets. I’m so thankful that they are a part of my life. I’m glad to know about the history of these types of musical groups.
I wonder when BTS and John Cena can finally meet? T - T
Same lol, John needs to meet his bias Jhope 😂
they won’t be able to see him tho
BangtanxARMY alltheway lol we need that
ah excuji me, shit downnn because of quarantine
They already met lmao
BTS are being compared to The Beatles, and One Direction, that just means that BTS are really popular and successful, right?!...
Extremely
The Asian Theory Absolutely!!
right!
Yes like that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@RiceSquad you can see search the concept photo of bts be like puppets in the tear era
Legends says there's no Asian Theory video without LOONA reference
😂 make sure to keep an eye out for the Jojo references as well
As soon as he started talking about how most groups don’t do something super unique I was like here it comes LOL
I mean why would we stan bts when we could stan lOoNa
Oh god here we go again
When he said jin is the shy one I started to remember every single time he has introduced himself😂🤣
Yeh he is actually an introvert. He just like to make people comfortable no matter the cost of embarrassing himself :
TaesGuccciTan awww
Isabella Mead i agree with you...i have never seen Jin as "the shy one" & never will😁
God y'all don't even know what shy means
Shy ≠ insecure..
You can still be confident as a shy person
I am truly fascinated to see a video that shows a really good overview on the history of boy bands. It just shows how much the times have changed and how music has reached on different levels of depth. In my honest opinion, BTS is no ordinary boy band, their music speaks a totally different spectrum from the usual or typical songs we would hear and I think it’s a “breaking of that wall” that sets them apart from the rest. The way they tackled social issues and inner problems beyond the surface is what would make you feel their sincerity and heart to connect with you.
-An ARMY who listened to Spring Day.
But please give bighit more credit
@@estelaangeles2346 yes we all love bang pd nim
@@estelaangeles2346 1 million percent. Bang PD and their Staffs are the foundation that guided bts and kept them safe. They really helped prepare them for the real world and what is to come😊
Yeah they forgot wdw. I am not really impressed im dissapointed :( but i guess he tried his best but not including wdw is ouchie for the limelights
I’d like to add that BTS aren’t catered to teenage girls either. BTS constantly mention that they intend to cater to all ages :)
If they continue doing that crap called fan service NEVER IS GOING TO HAPPEN!
Fan service is fan service. That’s just what a kpop idol does. I don’t see your reasoning?
The Baobabs They don’t do hella fanservice though... These days especially they’re very standoffish compared to the past.
@@thebaobabs206 yeah, they have kind of matured tho and do less "cutie stuff" like aegyo(idk how to spell it). But to b fair, they cannot ignore their teenage fans either lol. They give attention to each different types of fans in different ways. Those who are older will most likely enjoy the theories/ storyline. Those who are younger may like the fan service. Those who like dance get to see them dance. Those who like cinematography get great mvs. They are providing content for millions of people w different interests. If fan service is one of them...so be it lol
The Baobabs you do know... bts is from korean pop... right... where aegyo culture exists..? aegyo has been used in all of the kpop industry, and bts has already cut back on so much stuff the western media would bully. so dont take away their occasional cutesy moments. and if you mean sexual fanservice idk that stopped around 2014 💀

@@RiceSquad Rm was just joking but seriously Jungkook is the most shy one.
Esther La I’m sorry but you don’t know them, how would you know he’s joking? Look jin might seem like he’s really confident but don’t you see that it could be something bigger? Jin, and all of BTS, want their fans to be happy, he wants bts to be a place where they can be happy. Seokjin has been mistreated and it’s sad because he has to promote himself with things like eat jin and him being world wide handsome. Tell me, if you were asked to join a boy group only because of your looks, convinced that you don’t put anything to the group. You work hard everyday on your singing and dancing skills and have improved so much but still don’t get placed in the centre or don’t get many lines. Wouldn’t you feel discouraged and shy? Look I’m not saying I know their lives but there’s more than what you see on the surface.
sunnihxbi u r not wrong, and jin still get shy when he is the center of attention but if u go watch that interview u will see namjoon was joking, jin overcame his shyness . he has that duality of getting shy to be center of attention but having the confident of being the center of attention.
hanana na I’m not talking about head on shy, I’m talking about something deeper, not something you can just see off of facial expressions, I’m not saying that what I’m saying is correct but just look from his perspective. I’m not talking about the interview per se where they could actually be joking, I’m more concerned with the original comment as it implies as jin can’t have insecurities or that he doesn’t just because of some act as world wide handsome. He isn’t arrogant like it makes him seem, he cares for others and he could like his looks (bc he is handsome) but he’s definitely not arrogant. I’m just saying that there’s more to him than just this act he’s pulling.
My mum was a hardcore and a dedicated fan of alot of boybands from the 90’s, even more hardcore than me now as a BTS stan! She was very active in concerts and attending them, she has a collection of albums and disks, posters, etc. Her youth days was really fun and how I wished I lived in that time, and because of that, she is very open minded when it comes to me being head over heals for BTS, she is very supportive when it comes to my ‘fan girl needs’, to the point that she gadly came with me in a concert even though she isnt that much of a fan but still appreciates their music (her bias is Jin from BTS).
samee my mom was a fan of New Kids on the Block I think, Now she is an army too xd we are maybe going to a concert (if corona stops one day lol) ^^ and her bias is Jungkook. sorry for my bad english
I would be like ur mother,15-20 years later.....
If there would be a artist or a band which my child would like,I 'll support it!
If you were talking about BTS concerts she rich😭😭😭
same! my mom LOVEEE backstreet boys, she also attended a lot of eminem concerts wth my dad when they were first meeting eachother. they even got to meet him UP CLOSE-
I am older but NEVER liked boybands except Nsync a bit. BTS def broke the mold and just makes good music and performance
All I’m going to say is BTS DESERVED IT periodttttt
Kpop groups are just manufractured
Estela Angeles Thats not a bad thing though. Plus, what does that have to do with BTS? One direction was also manufactured.
Estela Angeles some groups put on a fake personality but not BTS. BTS put out ok much content for it to be fake. They’re filmed so much and do lives everyday that’s it’s near impossible for them to be fake
trix o ikr. And BTS is literally the LEAST manufactured group in the kpop industry, since they write their own lyrics and produce music by themselves.
James Bond 007 yeah
The fact that, most of the time, you can't say "Love yourself..." without associating it with BTS. What a powerful legacy they will be leaving to this time's and upcoming generations.
"Let it Be...and ...love Yourself.."
The Beatles and BTS.
👏 👏 👏
@@JoseGarcia-ki3vk I said "most of the time", did I say always??? and at that moment when I typed the comment, I associated it WITH BTS.
YOU ARE FREE to associate it with something else.
Tine P He’s just hating, but in a “discreet” way. 🙄
Exactly
@@JoseGarcia-ki3vk it's not that deep
@@JoseGarcia-ki3vk i am not a bts stan and have no clue what shes talking about so yah non kpop fans just think of love yourself(for some reason im pulling a pale michael jackson if i had to associate with a musician- i feel like he said that at some point)
I am so so proud of BTS how far they have come ... Comparing the fact that they don't get as many opportunities as other western singers to showcase their talent like radio play etc they still managed to pull it and make it this huge 💜 for me true kings of K-pop 💜🙌🙌🙌
Its too ealry to call them legends
@@estelaangeles2346 they are already the biggest asian act in history so yes we can call them legends. I don't why you guys wants to wait for their end to call them legends.
Estela Angeles yikes 😳
western people should stop invading kpop , its cringy. i mean , an american kpop group called ' exp edition' has failed to attract fans, because they lack visuals and talent . The talent and visuals of the bts , are on the another level . times have changed now adays , no one wants to see western singers anymore , every one only wants to see, bts and other kpop idols .
Nevin Shajidaniel your*
BTS is on a whole different level. People expected them to be a one-hit-wonder but surprise, they're still soaring and will continue to do so.
I agree
Then what about the beatles?
they are nothing compare to beatles, they just near backstreet boys
The Wanderer Indonesia not really you can’t compare cause of a whole race and language barrier plus bts came from a broke label Lou pearlmanwas rich
@@benpietrzykowski9216 They are disbanding in 2027 so there’s actually 50% chance that they can beat The Beatles .
FYI- all the BTS members do play instruments and well, some on tracks mostly cuz they can't dance and play at the same time so the choice was made to dance on stage, maybe when they get older they will bring their instruments on stage. Jin plays the guitar at shows, Jin and Suga the piano sometimes for their solo performances. My point is they all play insturments.
Yeah, I get a little crazy that they never mention that BTS can play instruments. I know they down play that they do all these amazing things.
but if i remember seokjin played the piano for his solo epiphany
The point was, they don't do it live. They dance instead.
@@uu4695 Epiphany, my favorite song, Jin also played guitar in concert for his AWAKE.
N. S.C they have and do play instruments live
the shy one. . . WHY IS JIN THERE LMAO
cuz he's the shyest. bts said it themselves
He’s just the way he is so the others will be more comfortable during interviews etc
He’s so confident-

Love the closing sentence: Let it Be and Love yourself, perfect nod between the Beatles and BTS
Comparing those two albums is like comparing a Lamborghini with a bicycle... (Let it be would be the Lamborghini, obviously)
@@ElMosaicoDeFunes Love yourself ain't even an album but a whole trilogy, shows that you didn't even listen to their music in the first place to make this judgement.
In my Opinion Beatles and BSB is still the best....
@@loonsy1056 lmao, they wont understand the trilogies and BU. Only Armys can handle Bts complex music.
@@ElMosaicoDeFunes no one's even comparing lmao calm down
The thing is, BTS has gotten to the point in which no other boyband will ever reach them. They’re so so amazing and I’m so proud of how far they have come due to their genuine love for army’s and music💜💜
We ARMY & BTS still have several hurdles to make it over but look out world, we are as Jungkook says; I'm taking over! I think you should know!
@@aunthattiesfancifulemporiu6126 i don't think you know this but bts are losing the message because it's too much pressure
Estela Angeles oml can you stop? I’ve seen you in almost every comment in the reply sections spreading hate about bts. If you don’t like them, then just don’t say anything. Yes, you can have your opinion but don’t go to every other comment to repeat yourself.
@@estelaangeles2346 They aren't loosing their message have you even listened to their lastest album ?? Stop spreading misinformed you sound so salty.

@@paolavicente9205 the Supremes, destineys child, TCL, dixie chicks, cheetah girls, theres alot ...theres more black groups than white which is why most people don't know most of them

Estela Angeles did you watch the making of BT21? They are all their creations and would sometimes even refer to them as their sons.
And even if it was not the boys who were directly involved like in the creation of the webtoon, fan arts and fictional story adaptations, it is still in Essence them, like literally their faces and personality. It was them who were the inspiration for this very rich art scene

Not shading them , but i can't choose a king there.
The only fact that i can say is BTS is a world wide LEGEND from Korea.
I'm an ELF forever (╥﹏╥)....but still really proud of BTS..
I can say Bigbang is the king of K-pop because that's their name in kpop history
BTS: KOREANS PRIDE. So I considered them as KINGS in Kpop obviously
@@estherla9695 but big bang did many mistakes and probably bts
nah. its undoubtably big bang. maybe you're a late comer but their numbers are hugeeeeee.
Finally one can respect bts ... Thank you ... recently whenever I watched a video for bts ..., all I see is exo.l and v.i.p they say..no !! Bigbang are the kings of the kpop .....no!!!exo are k-pop kings !! .... i mean nobody said that they are not .... we are not telling you to love bts but rather to respect them ... no one was able to achieve what they did ... and also many say that bts are above average. And they're the reason for other groups not receiving attention .... I don't know what they mean by that ....i mean they Was not popular ...all ppl hated them...and now ....for me saying that they are overrated don't make any sense....
One direction was an amazing group and I love them And BTS works so hard, they really bring something new every time, I’m really happy that they have made so many records, at this point, there is no one like BTS for me. But I love them both and they are both amazing.

But that was bighits idea
@Ana Julia Brouwer bts only sing and perform and they give a hint in the 2020 james corden interview and RM said they only do the music
Estela Angeles sweetie BTS produce, write, choreograph, and help with theories for all their songs. Including the help of other people but that would be the case for any artist. I don’t understand why you have such a huge hate red for BTS when in fact they are doing the best they can. They work hard and spread a good message that they want to put out into the world. You say that their songs are connected to their real lives which sometimes, yes can be true but they are speaking about their experiences which is amazing for them. But you are blowing it out of proportion when their whole basis of the music videos and songs are based of a fictional storyline that BTS helped create in order to talk about the struggles of youth and growing up.

As a mid age women.. and knows the some of the 70s, 80s and then MJ/Jackson5and so on. start checking the Korean singers/group in 2005 'Girl Generation' n love it, some Shinee,GOT7. In 2014-16 - got my interest then fall in love with B T S .. till now, because BTS do different in their music or lyric with so many messages, just like you explain how BTS became a Legend!
Like the Beatles, BTS has a fanbase that will literally immortalize them because we are loyal not only to the music, but to them as people. ARMY will never abandon BTS like a phase in their life. Loving and supporting BTS is truly something we will do until long after they have stopped performing. I think the Western market will be surprised that BTS is truly here to stay.

Good video. The first record (a 45) I ever bought was the Beatles in 1965, and the latest album I bought was BTS MOTS 7, and I have a lot of all the in-between groups. Some were more successful (however you count success), but all were enjoyable. Thanks for the history lesson!

i'm glad to say that BTS saved many lives without even knowing it.

Have u not listen to the whole MOTS 7album yet?
well its not 2016 anymore he has many lines in b sides specially.
Clearly a lot of work went into this. People can be too quick to write off ‘boy bands’ but when you look at the variety, those who play instruments, those who don’t, those who write and or produce, and those who don’t, it’s a much more complex and diverse subject than it appears on the surface. I think, it is maybe worth mentioning, that what really seems to divide what is considered a ‘boy bands and what is not, seems to be based more solidly on whether or not they are perceived to primarily have a young female fan base or not. Essentially the term is widely used in a derogatory way because of misogynistic attitudes to music and the [in my opinion very false] idea that female tastes in music are somehow less valid. Not trying to be over political, but I think it is a valid point that is often missed. Like you say many groups share characteristics but some are boy bands while others are not. Look at the gender split of the fan base ... see if I’m right.
Not Army's fanbase age demographics are way different than most boybands. Our highest number is 40-49 years old and we are not all female. This video explains the difference better I think. It has better understanding about BTS and idol music and the difference between the two as well as the difference between BTS and most of boybands

All the boyband stereotypes do not apply to us Army or BTS. From a 31 year old Greek Army.
@@pennybleta2300 Yeah, you are right. However, I'm talking more about how the fan-base is 'perceived' rather than what it actually is [i'm certainly not a teenage girl, but love BTS].
@@ElwoodShort Yes indeed sometimes it gets tiring when they the media is trying to pin all the stereotypes of boybands on BTS when they don't apply to them. I think this podcast shows the reason why they do it

@@pennybleta2300 but bts only does the music and bighit makes the meanings of songs
Estela Angeles BTS write their own songs. They aren’t like most kpop groups where they have the company write the songs for the group to perform
All of these group are successful in their own different ways and in different era's
Big respect to all of them
Loved this video!! BTS certainly rules now! I'm a 90's growing up with Bboys and Nsnc, but it was Jin's voice with Awake and Epiphany that woken me up again with boy bands..
Loving Jin sooo much!
Very well put together video, loved it! Im an ARMY so the BTS section really warmed my heart. I genuinely wanted to know about the past since I didn't really listen to boybands before BTS and it's really interesting to see the progress, although I don't listen to all of them I respect every boyband in the past and present. Wishing for more good days with BTS 💜!
I am awe, in love and everything else. I am a much older kpop fan and let me just say that this video made me go through memory lane. You melted my heart when you mentioned Menudo and gave them the much deserved credit 👏 . The same proudness I felt watching them on a Saturday morning cartoon intermission on an American channel,gasping for air because I couldn't believe my boys had come that far, well I felt the same way when BTS performed at the AMAs!
I have to agree with everyone else here by saying that yes I too am tired of NOT listening to BTS or any kpop on the radio. Monsta X is singing in all English and yet no airplay?! Houston we have a problem. Thank you thank you for this video.
I know they did not put Jin as “the shy one” 😂😂 that boy is so shameless about his good looks I had to laugh 💜💜
“Who is the most shy member?”
RM: Jin
Jin is the most introverted member. Jungkook has grown out of his shell because of taehyung but Jin is still really shy. He just has caring traits and so he'd rather see people comfortable and embarrass himself then to see someone unconfortable.
I agree, will never see Jin as "the shy one"😂
The most shy member imo is Jungkook. I do believe RM was joking in that interview
God y'all are so uneducated about the definition of shy
Shy ≠ insecure, a confident person can also be shy.
So so true. Whatever you said about bts was all so true. I mean
1)Breaking the mould- writing songs on self love, mental health, depression
2) Not having any influential background- not belonging to big 3
3) staying down to earth
4)interaction with their fans
5) producing and writing their own songs
6)breaking the language barrier
7) promoting their own culture and language
8) Storytelling through songs
9) staying united even after giving hit solos
AND OF COURSE WHO CAN FORGET
BANG SI-HYUK - The Man who was the backbone of these boys

I'm just here to grin stupidly as The Asian Theory deservedly compliments BTS for 5 minutes straight
BTS is not just a boy band but ARTISTS. They tackle issues not just about love but also anything which truly matters in your living. BTS has the brain, the guts, and the talents.
Just like the Beatles

sry but jin as the shy one and V as the bad boy took ne out . :))))) but anyway the duality is real in bts :))
TaesGuccciTan I think by shy one she/ he means the personality Jin shows in front of his fans now , not behind the camera / before .
In real life , yeah he is very shy, but from the armies’ perspective, he is the shameless one when he’s with BTS( the good meaning of shameless )
I’m not saying Jin fake a personality or something , I’m just saying Jin is different on and off camera so maybe he / she means shy isn’t the iconic personality of Jin.
@@yoongismaid4708 Even tho Jin is indeed quieter irl, that's not the image he projects, so you wouldn't think of shy when you think of Jin
I want bts to stay forever
I just wrote that above. I hope they last for years and years to come.
They wont but their children will continue their success
Erwin Cabarles no shit .
@@jordanwatson1317 You say that as if it was OBVIOUS that future bts kid's are gonna turn into big kpop idols. Not everyone will like to turn into what they're parents we're and won't continue it. Speak for yourself please.
sketchy I never said that they were going to turn into big kpop idols did I? No... the person above said that the success will be continued, I replied no shit. This isn’t a speak for yourself situation. It’s well known that when a celebrity had children their children always turn out successful in usually anything that they do. Maybe you read what I said the wrong way
I was here before this video hit a million
"the shy one" *puts pictures of Louis and Jin* 😳
I feel like Jin is half right, he is naturally a shy and introverted person and is just very good at pretending not to be.
@@loftyradish6972 yeah...but it defies the whole purpose of portraying the stereotype...its who appears to be the shy one not the one who pretends not to be shy🤣
Bts doesn't have that aspect of each boy having a particular image or fit in a particular category. In fact that isn't true for a lot of kpop. Bts is far too dynamic for something so confining, so I yeah, I guess a lot of boy bands can be pretty far out of the 'requirements'. Btw it's so cool to see how each boy band era has changed. Bts is the biggest now(as they deserve to be), but a new era will come.
Tsahai Johnson I agree. Also the way he stated it made it seem like it was a curated image.. BTS are so authentic whenever they’re on camera. They don’t feel the need to exaggerate or act like someone they aren’t... this allowed fans to see them as more human and is a huge reason as to why they’re successful today. It was just luck that those specific 7 guys ended up in the same group. All of them have beautiful personalities because they were born that way
I am really proud of being an ARMY and having been a listener since their debut!
Drop your ARMY year so that I feel like a grandma ARMY showering you with PURPLE 💜 !

Very nicely compiled.... Thank you.... Love BTS so much 💜💜💜
BTS are so different from ANY other group, boyband, etc. I’ve ever seen before. The *substance* in their work is just immaculate. It’s like a rap group, vocalists, a dance crew, producers, songwriters, comedians, and philosophers all somehow mushed up together and this accidentally made a power combo they didn’t know was going to blow up. You cannot compare BTS to any western boyband in history or Kpop group. They just did everything so differently as artists
Thank you for this short vid boyband history. I do hope you can make a separate clip for bts about making it big globally. It inspires so many people and yours so far is very entertaining. Keep it up.
You can watch BTS from Nobody to Legend
The Beatles is the Greatest Rock Band Of All Time
True
*Musical act
In the 2010 i rally love one direction so much but then they gone hiatus which broke my heart n i stop listening to their songs..but then in late 2017 bts come to my life even though i try to avoid it...thumbs up to both gp as they have their own achievements in music industry...loveee them so much
BTS broke and still breaking all the barriers and stereotypes around the world.
they came from a super small company that was about to go bankrupt, got 4 number #1 on US with albums in korean and with no bundles and so much more.. they deserve everything they achieve.
I just wanna say I click into this because I love One Direction.
I agree with points made in this video. The way I see it there are boybands who break the mould and leave a lasting legacy like The Beatles, Jackson 5, and BTS. These groups break barriers and start movements.
Other groups are more like the Backstreet Boys or NSync where they may (or may not) have been commercially successful, but were a product of their time and had little impact after breaking up.
idk, Why do many boy bands want to imitate BSB and NSYNC ?
I've been following this 'boyband series' of yours. Y'all deserve more subs tbh.
Thank you!
I'm so glad I'm alive in the BTS era
i'm a directioner through and through, and bts definitely deserves the success they have. all those choreographed dance moves and incredible vocals should be recognized for sure and i have several ARMY friends. however, i disagree with the idea that Western boy bands have songs with shallow subjects, because while that's true for many songs, it's not for all. One Direction have 'Little Things', 'Home', 'If I Could Fly', 'Moments', 'Don't Forget Where You Belong', 'Right Now' and more songs that are more than the typical song about a crush or girlfriend or breakup. however, those songs are criminally underrated and most people outside the fandom don't know they exist, whereas i've found with BTS that some of their most popular songs have those kinds of deeper meanings, like 'Spring Day'. i think- and this is just my opinion- that the most popular songs by these kpop artists have a deeper meaning than the most popular songs by many western artists, and the deeper songs by western artists aren't really talked about. that's just my opinion.
“Incredible vocals”, dude it’s autotune
@@tabzaofficial actually, dude, it's not. have you heard them live? a capella? acoustic? bts deserve every ounce of fame and recognition they have and more.
@@tabzaofficial I don't think you have seen them live?
This video made me even MORE proud to stan BTS, as cheesy as it sounds i found them during a rough time in my life and their music helped me alot, i could’ve stanned alot of boygroups but BTS truly were the only ones that caught my attention and i couldn’t be more grateful
One Direction ❤️
Directioner Forever
The reason why a training system is pretty much non existent in the west is because the few that we have had are like “ok so you’re not that good at dancing but we can just move you to the back or something” whereas Korea’s is “you are not going to debut until you are near perfect at all aspects”
Yeah but, they still put members in the back and leave them there... like a LOT.
@@monimuppet6132 is because you need to be talented to debut in a western group like little mix and to be in a kpop group the kpop company just picks random untalented people
Estela Angeles wow I’ve seen you on a bunch of comment threads hating on bts and kpop. Imagine being so pressed about kpop’s popularity and success that you actually took time out of your day to comment hate. If you don’t like them then ignore them. And if your are gonna try and comment hate why don’t you educate yourself on the Korean music industry first.
J AION I literally found her hating under a different video today. Sad life indeed
@@estelaangeles2346 Wtf?
BTS is respectable not only for their musical side but also for their sense of societal responsibilities. At the earliest stage they talked about students suffering.. then Love yourself-Speak yourself campaign for building self esteem ( I mean.. who thinks of comparing mental health issues with Whale's scream? And which artists tell fans to focus on studies rather than spending time only on their idols? Who compares Pluto as an society outcast!!) And now, Connect BTS is another project that makes me proud for being an ARMY. I also love 1D but they auditioned to be Soloists, so I think they are better as that.. Bangtan, fighting 💜 1D, fighting 💚
I'm a huge fan of both The BeeGees and BTS...I have often wondered, were The BeeGees a boy band? They formed organically, and wrote a lot of their own music, but were heavy on Disco, as opposed to traditional pop (althought Disco was very much a faction of Pop). Barry Gibb was highlighted for his good looks and fabulous hair, they were "heart-throbs"...and they were known for their heavenly voices! Eventually like The Beatles, they moved away from Pop and got into more experimental genres, prolific well into the 90s. I have always loved The BeeGees for their incredible vocal range, passionate lyrics, and wholesome, endearing personalities- similarities shared by BTS! I think this video is very informative and interesting, and shows how ambiguous definitions, even in a genre as formulaic as Pop music, can be. Thanks for featuring boy bands we all know and love!
"The shy one *Jin's pic*"
*world wide handsome lefts the chat*
Bts aren't even at the peak! Wait till they get grammys, they are gonna go woooop to the top! But still they r much more popular than 1D!believe it or nor!
Did you see the news today on twitter about how BTS are going to speak to the class of 2020 with barack obama?? THAT'S going to be legendary!
BangtanxARMY alltheway you could say that’s leJINdary
@@imaansaeed58 Yep : )
me loves bts!! i wouldn’t say they’re more popular than 1D though lol.. some people still don’t know who BTS are in America (lots of people at my school) but the mass majority knows who 1D is :) I hope BTS becomes more popular like 1D & the Beetles but they aren’t there just yet.
@@skinnylegendariee1804 many people didnt know who 1D was in Asia too.
I don’t mind if the world ends with BTS being the final greatest boy band, and if anything those boys are so talented they’re just going to accomplish even greater feats in other fields as they grow older. ARMY will forever be with them too. Just look at how their working together to create this next album by themselves. Imagine what they can achieve knowing that they’ll continue to push the bar. This journey just started 💜
But the Beatles is more successful than BTS
Big Bang was my first kpop group but I kept getting addicted to more kpop bands ... but BTS holds a special spot in my heart ♥️. Kpop is all I listen to 🎉 love from California 😎
Biggest tour of Kpop is now love yourself tour by BTS which know your fact thank you
BSB and One Direction ❤️❤️
when you put jin as the shy one I literally cackled... man doesn’t have a shy bone in his body
He is the most introverted one. You may not have been army for too long or have a different Bias but Jin is really shy. He just goes out of his way to make people comfortable. He would rather embarrass himself and make someone laugh then to make others feel awkward.
@@yoongismaid4708 Jin might seem confident, but he gets shy when he gets complimented by the members or other people. Remember their Just Dance V Live?
TaesGuccciTan nah I’m not new. I know that he doesn’t talk about a lot of stuff and he gets flustered, but he’s always the first one to break tension in interviews and he does that for the other members. you have to have some balls to do that lol
