I’m a 73 yo Navy retiree..Vietnam era and Gulf War vet. Been an Army since 2017. BTS keeps me sane and optimistic . Enjoy your comments and enthusiasm. Subscribed.
I'm so happy to see another BTS fan who closer to my age than most I see. 💜 I'm 59 & have been an Army for about the same length of time as you. They are pretty amazing.
Thank you for your service! And thank you for being a part of our 💜 family!
Thank you for your service

I seldom comment because it's a hassle but I do want to clear some of your confusion and explain a few things so you can understand a bit more where BTS stands.
One of the first things you should know is that BigHit entertainment was a tiny company when BTS debuted, meaning that unlike groups from bigger agencies that have been long established in Korea and have power over media (tv, magazines, etc), BTS did not enjoy an easy ride where they were well promoted because of lack of connections. This also means that BTS was looked down upon by said media and were relative unknowns in their home country for a long time.
The driving force behind BTS was in significant part ARMY and the internet. Because BTS shared so much of themselves on the internet, ARMY shared equally as much about their performances which were on another level for the time (and while they still are excellent, the industry has since caught up because... BTS) BTS and ARMY basically had only each other to rely on and defend themselves against numerous attacks from other fandoms who were growing jealous over their growing popularity overseas. BTS didn't become a household name in Korea until around 2018, mostly because they won a BMA the previous year and then made history at the AMAs, until then, they were mostly known by internet kpop fans and their local fanbase. (Nowadays, anyone not knowing who BTS is in Korea is unimaginable)
Another point to note is that two of the members, rappers Suga and RM were both fairly famous underground rappers before joining their company. At the time (and it still slightly lingers today), underground rappers looked down on kpop rappers because most of them were 'not" actual rappers. And so joining a kpop group was deemed like abandoning their roots and whatnot. Due to that fact, the members received extra backlash from hip-hop fans for trying to be 'idols', and backlash from kpop fans for not fitting the 'standard' (which they now have come to define). This explains why quite a few of their songs take digs and diss people who looked down on them. The rappers' cyphers are famous diss tracks, but they have many more, like Mic Drop which will have definitely been recommended by now.
BTS heavily participates in the themes and lyrics (even song composing) since the beginning, a move decided by their producer Bang Shihyuk who wanted them to tell their stories. This is important because it explains a lot of the vocabulary they utilize in their song, including baepsae (crow tit). The crow tit is a small bird as you have seen, and it is usually used as a metaphor to refer to the lower class, those who have no privilege, aka silver spoons. BTS highly identifies with this because of their own humble beginnings, but also as part of society. As a group, BTS used their voice to talk about social inequalities between youth and boomers, between the high class and low class, and between the expectations of people and the realities of our times. This is a point that strongly resonated with many because it was a real discussion, not a song about some shitty love somewhere. Hence, the more people dug, the more people got interested because not only is the music good, but they actually talk about some real things and are not creating just earworms.
BTS' early discography was a lot more hiphop influenced, but like any artist had evolved over the years. They have dabbled in a lot of different genres and listening to an album from beginning to end is an interesting journey in both sound but also story. They craft each album with a theme and a story that flows through each song. They also incorporated an alternate universe story through their music videos and albums, which was novel at the time but commonplace nowadays because... BTS. Basically, if BTS did it, it's the norm now.
I personally believe that after 4-5 songs, you should try to go through their discography chronologically because it shows growth as an artist, but also as a human being in these times trying to make sense of things through whatever knowledge you have at the time. It will also make you appreciate how these 7 men started with nothing, and build a trusting relationship first with their company, and then their fans and they are very aware and humble still about that fact.
To also answer a question to your previous video, Map of the soul; 7 came as a surprise to fans because the series of album was based on the Jungian theory of one's self, and since they had released the previous album to that theme using Map of the Soul; Personna, people had assumed the next installment would be called either Shadow, Ego or maybe even Anima. Shadow and Ego were instead used as tracks in the album. The 7 in this case represents two specific things, being the 7 members themselves, but also because the album was released in their 7th year since debuting. It is also the reason why since 2020 if you will find twitter handle names with a small 7 next to them, representing BTS and ARMY.
Hello guys and fellow veterans...I am a 67 year old vietnam vet that fell into this rabbit hole back in 2016. They are a genre all their own and are in a bubble all by themselves. The further you get into their songs you will figure it out yourselves. If you could though you really need to turn their music up. We can hear you but not the music in the video
Ich mag katzen
@@janinreschke who, yoongi?
@@goeienacht Min Yoongi is Suga.
@@janinreschke super
@@erikoenglish1651 you missed the pun
Suga got shoulder surgery due to being in a car accident before they debuted in 2013. He was out delivering food on his motorbike when he got hit by a car and damaged his rotater cuff. He didn't tell the company in case they stopped him from debuting, not telling them until a good while after, instead he lived with the pain for years doing all those very complicated and intense dance routines.
It finally got to a point where he could no longer move his arm or lift anything heavier than a bottle of water, after doing ON and Black Swan choreo (definitely recommended Black Swan btw). He decided to have the surgery so he would be able to do his military service when the time came and just so he had a better quality of life.
Suga is my bias because of this, and because he has struggled with depression and come out of the other side. He's not afraid to talk about it either, even though mental illness is still such a taboo in Korea.
This reaction was so fun to watch! Also these are some pretty good BTS guides to watch:-

The saying about "If a crow-tit walks like a stork it will break its legs" isn't exactly about staying humble. It's basically, "don't try to pretend to be someone bigger or better-class than you actually are, because it'll just end badly for you." It's not just about humility, it's about upper classes telling lower-class people to mind their place, and elders telling the younger generation that they shouldn't get above themselves.
(To which BTS's response is, unequivocally, "Eff that noise.")
Thanks for explain it for them! (Came to the comments to do it lol)
great reaction! so far, you guys are few of the reactors I like because you are really paying attention to the lyrics. I'm 48 years old and I got into BTS not just because of their singing and dancing but because of the message they send trough their music which resonates to a lot of people. Many reactors only care about their dancing and singing. Others only care about the instruments or the vocals. Others even say that they don't need to understand the lyrics as long as they can vibe with the music which is fine but for me, understanding the message of the BTS songs is the most important. Thanks for reacting to our boys. SUBSCRIBED!
calm down😭 you can make mistakes I know I and many ARMYs made mistakes when it came to learning the members' names for the first time, you're already doing a better job than I ever did
In order to know then individually I highly recommend you to watch and react to “Introductions to bts by Taylor.
I just want to let y'all know, you're not gonna get canceled, unless you talk shit about them or you're someone who's supposed to know them (like if you're a journalist who's interviewing them and failed to do research about them and can't even refer to them with their own name). It's perfectly normal to not know them by name, especially since you just started to get to know them, everyone in the fandom went through that phase, so don't say that you're gonna get canceled just for not knowing their name, we understand.
And ARMYs aren't gonna do shit to you unless you do and/or say shitty thing about our boy. We won't do anything as long as you're respectful. That's all.
Not Today is inspired by one of the famous quotes by Martin Luther King Jr., “If you can’t fly, then run. If you can’t run, then walk. If you can’t walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.” It's all about fighting authority and "breaking the glass ceiling." Its 2017 releases coincided with civil unrest in South Korea as a response to governmental corruption. RM confirmed as much when asked about the song by the Korea Herald. "I wrote the lyrics for BTS so we do not stay silent against social issues and injustice and continue to solve it and raise problem," he said. "We talk about social issues, read books and meet with experts and ponder together. We still have a long way to go, but we will think hard and embrace criticism."
The lyrics of "Not Today" speak of overcoming obstacles and keep fighting, while instilling hope in oneself. In the opening lyrics, RM calls out to "all the underdogs in the world." It discusses the theme of anti-establishment that was featured in their previous singles "No More Dream" and "N.O.", through lines like, "A day may come when we lose/ But it is not today/ Today we fight!" During the chorus, the band speak of rallying against injustice, corruption and irrationality; "Don’t kneel, don’t cry, raise your hands Not not today." The line, "Break the glass ceiling that cages you" references the idea of breaking all invisible barriers that stop people from succeeding. The lyrics addressed social and political issues (they are trying to rally the youth and let them know life is worth fighting for, possibly in response to the extremely high rates of youth suicide in their country from a generation that feels lost, unempowered and desperate.)💜💜
NEVERRRRRRR use subtitles if they say autogenerated 😭😭 they’re never accurate bc a boy literally just puts together the syllables in the Korean words to turn them into random English words that sound similar
Dionysus is one of their heaviest/rock songs. There isn't an official MV, but if you watch the 2019 MAMA awards it's an amazing overview of their biggest songs.
Suga will be doing his service, just more likely in the social services arm. He was hit by a car doing deliveries when they were still trainees. He was afraid of getting kicked out so he never really reported it, just danced in pain for 8 years.
Switching back and forth with English happens in the majority of their songs, but they also have a couple where they switch back and forth between Korean and Spanish. They also have full Japanese albums.
The 2019 MMA awards was legendary. You need time though as it's 37 minutes long.
Suga will still be doing some sort of service. He has had his injury since almost 2013 when he got ran over by a car and barely got surgery on 2021 because he could no longer avoid the discomfort and pain. He hasn’t recovered completely. But he wants to do his service too. The whole “he won’t serve” is just rumors spread by Antis, we have to wait til the actual announcement before making assumptions. He wants to represent Korea just like all the other members.
Also it was the company and government that wanted to exempt BTS from service because they bring so much revenue to their country but BTS didn’t want that, they wanted to serve. And they got so much hate from an exemption they never asked for. Their company and government were literally not allowing them to go.
I’m just bringing this up because it sounds like you guys are making assumptions in regards to their service as well and is not fair to them.
On CC for subtitles just click English, do NOT click on 'auto generated' because it is just whatever random words the audio system pics up. Even with a completly English song an Autogenerated English sub will not be correct hahah
If you want hardcore music, you gotta look at the rap songs from BTS. Something like Ugh, the Cyphers, or their solo music. Their rap and hip hop is the roots for BTS.
Ooft my groan when you turned off the actual subtitles and used the autogen ones...
Just for the future, don't choose English auto-generated caption, it's just English, but great reaction!
Want to get your mind completely blown? Watch the 2019 MMA performance. This is K-pop’s biggest award show. You have never seen an award show performance like this ever.
A 37 minute performance of perfection.
Crow Tits translates to underdog basically! Crow tits have tiny legs, storks have really long legs. The expression “A crow tit trying to catch up to a stork will break its legs” can be related to poverty, privilege, generations and more, basically any situation where it almost doesn’t matter how hard you work, your can’t be expected to succeed.
Let's try some of their rap soon. Cyphers 1-4, Ugh, Ddaeng, Intro: Persona, Interlude: Shadow, Outro: Ego, Intro: Nevermind, Outro: Tear.
The subtitle of this is actually working but you clicked the auto generated one that's why the subtitles are messed up the english one was the right one
Suga's shoulder injury (hit by a car as a bike messenger) happened years before he got proper surgery for it. It happened right before debut so he opted for pain management for years instead of the surgery, and all the dancing and physical activity made for pretty significant wear and tear. He only got the surgery when they had to take a break due to lockdowns. By that point it was becoming more apparent that it was really bugging him during performances.
Wow! From 1000 subs to now 6.3K as of 2/24/2023. Congratulations!!! You even have a purple background on already without probably knowing what that color means to BTS ARMY. I am looking forward to watching more of your BTS reactions. Borahae💜
Thank you graciously!! 💜
Hi Guys, I luv your reactions to BTS. It iook's like you are having a lot of fun & are being very respectful to our boys. These are 7 very talented & humble guys that write & produce a lot of their own music that covers many genres from ballads to hip hop. They practise singing while using a treadmill & dance practises last for hrs. Their live performances are on another level. The concert they did back in Sth Korea in Oct last yr, just before Jin enlisted, was phenomenal. They do a couple of hrs straight with only a very short break for costume change. You really should react to Mic Drop & Run BTS from this concert & also the dance practise to Run BTS. (They have 2 songs called Run so just double check which one it is, or you could just react to both lol) Another good one to watch to give you an idea of some of the different genres they do is BTS Room Live 2021 Festa. Bangtan 7, an introduction to BTS by Taylor, is a good way to learn about the boys & Army. It's about 40 mins long, but Army don't mind the longer the better, lol. They always show appreciation & luv to Army & dedicate a lot of their music to them. They write song's about social justice, mental health, bullying etc. One of their songs when they first started was about the rigid education system in Sth Korea. They are not afraid to rock the boat when it comes to standing up for the underdog. They have really had to claw their way up to where they are now. 💜Borahae💜 & 감사합니다 (thank you) I look forward to more BTS reactions as you fall deeper into the rabbit hole 🤣
So a crow-tit is a bird with short legs. It’s a reference to their generation having a disadvantage (capitalism, education, society etc). That other song, Baepsae, is about storks with long legs telling the youth they just have to work harder to achieve success, but they ignore that younger generations are priced out of housing, can’t find good jobs or are offered jobs for “experience” but no pay. They’re basically saying to the youth “rise up, we’ll stick together and survive.”
The military jokes😂
Jin would appreciate those cuz he is like the king of dad jokes.
Also u asked for harder songs- i recommend fire, dope, mic drop (all 7 of them) , ddaeng cyphers (1-4), ugh ( just the rappers). Not to mention the individual albums of the rapline ( I'll stop here)😌
New sub….can you please watch the Guide to BTS by Taylor….highly recommended to anyone new to BTS….thanks! 💜
The English subtitles were correct the first time lol. The reason you didn’t see subtitles yet, because RM was speaking in English with his opening line. If it says “English” only, it’s correct. Even if there were no subtitles, do without the autogenerated.
As for Suga not serving in the military, that's not true, all members will serve in the military with no exceptions. Even with Suga's shoulder injury and "recent" surgery, he may not spend the entire period on the front lines, but he will still have to undergo training and will work in the administrative or public sector. But non-fulfillment of military service is impossible.
It is noteworthy that they WANTED to serve, it was their decision. The Korean Government was even making arrangements for this period of military service to be reduced for them, or so that they didn't have to serve, but they didn't want to wait any longer, in fact they got tired of letting the government or others decide about their own lives, in the RM's words in Cypher 3, at the Busan concert, which took place the day before the members' army enlistment announcement: "But I don't care You can't control my shit".
In fact, Jin said that he wanted to enlist in the military in 2020, it just wasn't because the members insisted that he not go, and soon after they released the singles in English, and played concerts in LA and Las Vegas, Jin wasn't going to be able to participate in all this with the army. On the one hand I wish he had gone to serve in 2020, because he would have been back by now, but on the other hand it would be very sad to imagine the 'Dynamite', 'Buter' and 'Permission to Dance' era without Jin.. .
Exactly,you're right!!!
Here Korean army💜💜🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷
To help understand the term “crow tits” I recommend this:
1. Baepsae (silver spoon)
2. Watch dkdktv explanation video for Baepsae
Also other BTS song incorporate similar means such as Dope in RM’s verse…
To get a taste of some of their different music styles, you should watch 2021 FESTA Live Room. They do a melody of 7 songs (all b-sides) starting with a song from 2013 to 2021.
I love the 2021 live video 💜
I was reading a few of the comments....please ignore the rude ones....Army should NOT be rude ...especially to new reactors that are TRYING their best....trust me when I say...those making the rude comments were new at BTS once too....I'm sure they were not perfect by any means!!!
And PLEASE stop telling these reactors how to do their reactions!! Reactions are suppose to be REAL ones....if you don't like it...LEAVE....easy as that!
Whew!...finally got that off my chest 😆 have a wonderful day 😊💜💜💜💜
You're Awesome, those people were so rude. I liked the video
20:17 😂😂😂 Yes I know its weirdly hilarious but from what I remember “Crow Tit” is the name of a south Korean bird that is a titlike bird known for their curved parrotlike bills but it also means “Baepsae”. The word comes from an elder generation Korean proverb toward us young generations “A crow tit will break its legs trying to walk like a stork” which is basically saying that the generations after them are “try-hards” (hence, trying too hard to be someone that we are not in order to fit in). In that lyric sentence BTS is saying “Hey ~ Try-Hards”! All Hands Up!” staying strong and humble together.
Ohhh for heavier staff!! Check out please RUN BTS song lyrics video + the live performance !! It's insane and the performance was done recently....
P.S. don't mistake with RUN song...bts have 2 songs: run bts and run😁
They have LOTS of harder/heavier songs 😌
Some of them I recommend are Run BTS, Mic Drop, UGH, Cypher Pt 3.
However this is a great one of their most iconic live rap performances, Outro tear: th-cam.com/video/UDuaJGYe8EQ/w-d-xo.html

46yo ARMY here and No, you are not going to get cancelled for making mistakes 😊 ARMYs appreciate that you are putting in the effort and trying 💜 My only suggestion to you is to put your obsession of putting American meanings to everything aside. BTS MVs, songs, lyrics are a lot deeper, full of symbolism, wordplay and historical references than you can get in 1, 2 or 3 listenings.
I literally heard the communal scream of pain by ARMYs watching as you passed over the actual English subtitles to click on the horribly wrong auto-generated ones... ;)
Same here
Yeah,I died a little, then checked if they kept the wrong subs on and the volume low and then decided not to watch. Not mad or anything but just can't put myself through auto-generated subs and that audio . I'll be back for the next one.
@@Cookie_moonlove I checked as well but apparently a little further along in the video... ;) They DID realize at some point! :)
@@organiccookie1306 yes I saw that too after and watched that part. But they didn't really realize, it was more a fluke and they seemed to think eng CC was added as they watched it? ^^
"Crow tit " can mean "try hards " as the bird has weak legs it's bit sarcastic they used this word many times there is a song called "baepsae"/" crow tit ". bts =bullet proof boy scouts since they mentioned bulletproof too
This song hits hard in stadium concerts it it's so powerful 💜
I recommend bts black Swan
Auto-generated subtitles look for anything that sounds like words in the language you're set to, it doesn't translate so you'll near enough always end up with nonsense subtitles. Not Today did actually have English subtitles which you turned off for the auto-generated ones though, the only reason it likely didn't show initially was because it's English spoken word at the beginning with Joonie.
Edit : The auto-translate feature you just put on (as I'm watching this) is new and unfortunately isn't that accurate either (if it even notices anything,) especially with music as there's a lot going on in the audio as opposed to just speaking. I'd say to just avoid anything "auto" on utub ^^;
But yeah they do lots of genres! BTS isn't boxed into just one thing 💜
Edit 2 : I should say kpop itself isn't just limited to pop music either, kpop is more of an industry so don't think of it as a genre and while BTS is technically kpop we (ARMY) consider them to be more than it; kpop is a part of BTS but BTS is bigger than kpop.
Edit 3 : Yoongi has recovered from surgery and there was no guarantee it was ever going to be why he wouldn't serve either, so it's outdated speculation from anyone who said he likely wouldn't serve due to it. Heck he dealt with shoulder issues since the bike accident in 2012 prior to BTS' debut, not that he was always in the same amount of pain as it definitely deteriorated further into the torn shoulder lebrum he got diagnosed for in 2019 (which is what he needed surgery for) but he still went a year before the diagnosis of his dislocated shoulder because he didn't want to risk not debuting - he's insanely strong and he feels better now than he has done for a long time.
Edit 4 : Crow tits are cute little tiny birds x') there's a meaning for it in reference to a Korean proverb. They're not just talking about human tits I can assure you x')
Edit 5 : "More effort into the choreography" is unfair to say after watching only a music video alone when you're comparing it to another song you purposely watched them perform the choreography live too, just saying. All their choreography has effort put into it. ☕
I highly recommened u guys to watch A guide to BTS The bangtan 7 by taylor. it's very well done and explain very well who is who, their skills and achievments! love u reactions, Borahae 💜🥰 (you'l understand the meaning of this word after watching the guide 😅)
Totally different are Black Swan, Mic Drop, Home, Airplane 2. Tiny Desk, MTV or any award shows really good
Totally agree!👍
Suga is not getting an exemption, he still has to serve but whether it’s in a combat or administrative role hasn’t been decided yet and will depend on the physical and doctors recommendation.
I'm an army veteran. Served 9 years. My wife, daughter, and I are huge BTS fans. If you're looking for harder BTS song I would recommend Mic Drop, UGH, Cypher 1,2,3 and 4. RM has a solo song called joke which also really good. And Suga AKA Agust D has some really good solo stuff like Daechwita and Agust D.
u can react to the original official MVs from their company with no copyright issue, put the ENGLISH subtitles on, not 'auto-generate'..
they have around 8 MVs with over 1Billions views, & tones more with 100M-900M views..
its not just about numbers, but their songs all bombs & full of meanings..
i love love love your sense of humor & details 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
cant wait for more BTS reactions 💜💜💜
hahah you guys had the right subtitles then went auto-generated! 😅😭 the lyrics of this song is SO GOOD! Make sure to always click on settings > caption > english for their videos. Don't miss the good stuff! Looking forward to the rest of your BTS journey!
Please guys check out RUN BTS Live performance in BUSAN...
BTS always provide English cc in their official channel. Pls dont use the auto generated cc, its painful to watch :,)
The live performance for this at Wembley stadium is fireeee!!!! I hope u can check it out, DIONYSUS and NOT TODAY back to back opening performance of their wembley concert... Loved ur reactions guys, please keep it coming...💜💜💜
SO GOOD!
ARMY let's suggest RUN BTS dance practice please! They will LOVE IT. Please?????
yess
I am 53 and grew up on metal and rock, but BTS is my favorite group. I flew to Vegas to their concert last April. BTS are always better live. Enjoy BTS more channel has alot of live performances with English subtitles. I recommend the Taylor guide first before more videos.
Just one suggestion tho,
Please react to MV, dance practice, then live performance of the same song .
You'll be more amazed about their (bts) craft and we can have more fun together 💜💜💜💜💜💜
Can you please react to the guide to BTS by taylor mari 💜
and don't give haters comments too much attention 🐧 just ignore them
Suggestion... As you watched the mv you can also watch a live performance of that song you choose to react so you can also see how they perform that particular song live. This format is much better like what you did with ON. Keep up the good work!
Agree 👍
This is what I call the bts “rave music” category 😂 also yes, almost every US English speaker definitely went on the “what is a crow tit” search
"That looks dope"... 😂💜
They have a song called *"DOPE"* btw and also *"FIRE"*
If you guys want to know them better you should watch guide to BTS members by Taylor
So happy y'all have done another BTS reaction. So many songs to recommend, where to start. MIC DROP, Steve Aoki remix, was very popular with westen listeners. The Taylor Mari documentary is a great one to learn about the members. I'm drawing a blank on any other videos, only because I can't choose one over the other. Like I Said on the other video, just pick Amy of them. You won't be disappointed. You guys will be down here in the rabbit hole very soon. Becoming ARMY will not be far behind.
Welcome back and congratulations to your 1,000 subs. Suga received a letter from the Korean ministry of defense that he can do social services work or if he wants join the military. We haven’t yet received any info which one he will decide. The thing about BTS songs is that there is a lot of clever wordplay.
ON: Kinetic Manifesto was pure performance video. ON: the official mv has a storyline.
You guys are thoughtful and funny!
I feel like someone might have mentioned this but just in case. Crow-tits are the short-legged birds. It's commonly used to compare the long-legged birds in old Korean saying that short-legged birds will never catch up with long-legged birds. So that word is just reference to people who were told that they were not going to make it due to their social status. BTS talks a lot about Crow-tits (Baepsae), if you check out that song, you'll understand what they mean. Thank you for your reaction
I'm really enjoying watching y'all react to this! I really can't wait for you guys to watch the documentaries about them! I'm a 50 year old ARMY,. And my late husband was actual army lol. (He died last year, BTS have totally saved my life throughout this, they are helping me see the light at the end of this terrible time) . We were also stationed in Korea, in the 90s, we were over there when Kim IL Sung died. We were stationed at camp howze , about 25 km from the dmz. My husband discovered BTS before me, and because we lived over there and I liked the music the local girls showed me, he thought I'd like BTS. He had no idea what he started! I became obsessed and I got my kids into them as well and it became all we listened to! I was lucky enough to take 1 of my kids to LA to see them, best concert of my life! Anyway, thx for checking them out and being respectful. Eagerly waiting for more! 💜
not you guys selecting the auto generated subs over the actually correct eng subs lmaoooo
😂😂 lol 🤣🤣
You should watch an introduction to the seven member of BTS by Taylor
Sorry for some of the negative comments. We can be a picky bunch sometimes. Turning up the volume on the music would be very nice, please and thank you. Also if you pay attention to everything on the screen you will discover different things all the time. The amount of effort put into the sets and background’s is unbelievable. So many clues and connections. Once you start to figure them out it makes the experience even better.
Guys.. just listen to " BTS MIC DROP ft steve Aoki"
you all gonna blow ur mind ..It is definitely the one you all gonna vibe
Jin doesn’t really have much screen time on this one, but he’s in the red & white striped shirt here. He did a collaboration with Coldplay as a gift to us before he enlisted (The Astronaut) an MV & Live 💜 I think you guys need to listen to the Cyphers (1-4) by the rapline (RM Suga & Jhope) they were honestly the biggest shock for me when I went down the rabbit hole. Rap is not a genre I’m into (with a few exceptions) but the BTS Rapline? I have never loved rap more than when I’m listening to these guys! Also crow-tit is a species of small bird (a miniature stork I think - feel free to correct me ARMY) and it’s used as a Korean analogy (think of it as the older generations being a standard stork with long legs saying it’s struggles are the same as the stork with the shorter legs - millennials, struggling with the economy/housing prices etc - the crow-tit) the guys are clever with their writing and often songs have very deep hidden messages. There may be a few songs that you’ll need explanation videos for, which are available. You will appreciate the music more when you understand the deeper meanings.
BTS music videos always have English subtitles. Please don't choose the auto-generated next time. Thank youuu
except their earlier songs (2013) which you can get the MV with cc on 1thek channel.
I recommend watching "A guide to BTS members: the bangtan 7". You will get to know the members of the group a little better. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Congrats on 1000 subscribers! We will keep showing up and bringing others to join. What a great choice for your next song. I'm a 67 year old Psychotherapist and my Clients turned me on to BTS. Many have reported that the inspiration of BTS saved their lives, literally. This song is a powerful song about not committing suicide today:"No, Not Today!" Keep up the good work! There are millions of ARMY, here we come guys!
Hey, they have 50 back up dancers, a live rock band, and a Brass section also. 💜
For Reaper's shake, I recommend Dionysus. I'd suggest this 👇live performance video; it's from their "Speak Yourself" Tour and it has english translation in cc. You'll get the Not Today live, too.

Heavier BTS songs? I would recommend watching Danger. Also, perhaps, Boy In Love, Dionysus, or More (J Hope Solo song).
Outro Tear
If you like rap please checkout Tear live (black outfits), the 4 Cyphers, Dawechita, Shadow.
And JHope's Chicago Lollapalooza (now called jokingly Hobipalooza) concert is INCREDIBLE!
And Louder than bombs song is a masterpiece!
Try to avoid 😅 auto-generated captions because its not what theyre saying at all and also make sure to react to the their content from either HYBE Labels or BANGTANTV YT channels … no third-party channels (if you can help it but if not its fine).
29:50 Recommendations depend on what you guys want to learn next. Do you want to know more about the group? There's Taylor Mari's "A Guide to BTS Members" and Rice Squad's "The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS (2022 Update!)". If you want a good mix of music, I recommend BTS Week on Jimmy Fallon (features the songs "IDOL", "Home", "Black Swan", "Mikrokosmos", and "Dynamite"), BTS Room Live Festa 2021, or BTS on NPR Tiny Desk Concert (features "Dynamite", "Save Me", and Spring Day"). I'm sure you guys won't run out of suggestions from the comments lol
Good suggestions!
the jimmy fallon week was great but might get them the copyright strike again.
@@yeppoyou Fallon is ok to react to, it should not be a problem.
@@yeppoyou that is a good point. I’ve seen other reactors react to it but they have to edit the video and audio a lot in order to avoid copyright 🤔
Can't satisfy everyone. It's your video. don't worry about the comments :P
Oh, FYI: Please, stay away from auto-generated subs. The subtitles worked on English, just that he wasn't actually saying anything at that exact moment so nothing was on. But BTS always have official English subs. Just give it a few seconds.
26:30 Tbh if you want to concentrate more on choreography, check out the dance practices or the live performance. BTS music videos do try to tell a story through visuals and dance, but visual take a huge part of story telling. The dance practice for ON and Not Today were both VERY GOOD. I definitely recommend dance practice videos if you're that interested in their choreography ^__^
Jin is doing well in the military, he'll be a assistant teacher for the new recruiters. As for Suga, he'll do a government job, because of his shoulder surgery. JHOPE is waiting for his birthday ( February 18th) to get prepared to leave to military.
BTS Army may not have physical health benefits, but it definitely has mental health benefits😁
YES
Hey Spuddy! Hope to see you Saturday.....can't wait! 💜😊
@@KathySwampQueen I’ll be there!
The subs you had on at first was right, the english one. Not the auto generated
I recommend Dionysus, Ugh, Mic Drop Remix, and all the Cyphers ( ofc mic drop without the remix is good but I like the remix one more)
My now deceased husband, who was a former Marine, would have done anything to not listen to BTS. I appreciate that you three are taking your time to do that and not just saying “ they should speak English. “I am an old army(middle aged) and absolutely love these young men. I wish that more Americans were open to listen as you are. Granted, BTS may not be everybody’s cup of tea, but no one can deny their talent. Also, thank you for your service!
Crow tit is a small bird that is used in Korean analogies as a disadvantaged bird trying to to keep up with long-legged storks.
It also is significant that they mention bulletproof as BTS originally stood for Bulletproof Boy Scouts (Bangtan Sonyeondan )
I think you should react to "A guide to bts members:The bangtan 7" by Taylor...it will help you to know more about them . There are also 3 or 4 more guide videos about them by xcelet and rice sqaud. You can react to them too one by one .
💜✨
Thanks for the reaction. Trust me BTS has music for everyone, including edger stuff, they cover a lot of genres. Im sure you already have request for a lot of different songs. I am glad you want to find out more about them by watching a documentary. I believe learning their backgrounds, where they came from, their personalities and how they became the biggest group in the world is important so thanks for that. So enjoy the ride that is the journey of BTS.
You guys need to do a reaction video to their MAMA award show performances especially the 2019 one! I promise your minds will be blown and you’ll convert to being a BTS army!
Don’t use auto generated!! 😩😩 always click just the English captions
Watch AGUST D “Daechwita”! ASTONISHING! Agust D is BTS’ SUGA whose given name is MIN YOONGI!
This comment needs amplified so much!!! 💜💜💜
‘On’ had more choreography because it was the kinetic manifesto film that you watched, not the MV. Comparing ‘On’ and ‘Not Today’ (MV), ‘Not Today had more choreography, and ‘On’ had more story 👍
Definitely CC for English subtitles....never use the auto generated option because it's meant to write out spoken English to help with the hearing impaired. 💜
Not sure if y'all realized this, but there were lyrics, y'all just didn't wait the next few seconds for the lyrics to come up lmao. And tip: never click English auto generated, because it'll just generate lyrics that they THINK they are saying based on the sounds instead of what they're actually saying. 99% of BTS Music videos have English captions.
Can't wait for more reactions in the future💃
The lyrics didn't come up in English because RM was speaking in English. A lot of new listeners don't catch that though so I wish they'd put the subtitles up as well during that part of the song.
@@HadassaMoon144 ohh okay! I thought It was because they didn't wait long enough for the lyrics to come up. That's so weird tho, I wonder why they didn't put the captions for when RM was speaking english. Although ig it's understandable since they probably assumed English speaking ppl don't need captions when they are speaking English lol
some of my favorite heavier bts songs are cypher pt 3 killer and UGH!
crow tit is a small bird in this version means milleniels ...TO understand react to their song Baepsae AND Baepsae explained by a Korean " by DKDKTV💜💜💜💜💜💜💜Some of their songs need explanations due to Korean puns/sayings we don't know ........Their explanation are in English
Watch their dance practice videos! Some suggestions:
- Run BTS dance practice
- MAMA 2019 dance practice
- On and Black Swan Dance Practice
- Blood, Sweat, and Tears Dance practice
What I find very funny about this song is that RM said it was inspired by Aragorn's speech from Return of the King and as a huge LOTR fan, it makes me smile so much.
The "auto-generated" captions are ALWAYS wrong. It's just TH-cam trying to guess what they say based on what it hears. The "English" ones were correct, it's their company's own translation. But you just didn't see anything at the beginning because Namjoon was speaking English. When they speak English, generally, there is no translation from BigHit.
Fun fact (although I’m sure ARMY has already informed you)…….there was NO green screening in this MV. Everything was shot on scene, built, and/color edited. But no green screening. In general, it isn’t used much in kpop. They typically have higher budgets for their MVs, and put a lot of efforts into building a lot of the sets. This particular MV for BTS doesn’t get enough love for the effort put into it. Enjoy your reactions!
Also, kpop is an almost misleading term. Kpop is general is known for mixing different beats and genres together for different sounds. It’s part of why it’s developed such a following over the past decade. Each group develops its own characteristics and signature, while still being able to diverse as artists. It’s pretty incredible, even if traditional ‘pop’ music isn’t your typical style.
ALSO, they have a song called ‘Baepsae,’ (crowtit) lol. They don’t have an MV for it, but they do have a dance practice (highly recommend), as well as lyric and performance videos.
Correction 🚨 Taylor’s “A Guide to BTS Members the Bangtan 7” (or a similar title) is a VERY great introduction to them and my recommendation on your next BTS vid if you all have the time/desire to continue
Up!
For harder songs, I’d go with mic drop, Run BTS, Dionysus, Dis-ease, and any of the rap line songs like Ugh, Daechwita, RM’s Joke, j-Hope’s Arson. So many options!
If they’re going to react Dionysus, they will definitely need to watch the performance from the 2019 MMA…nothing beats this one for Dionysus yeah? But absolutely agree with all of the MV’s you’ve listed for harder songs and add Run BTS live in Busan, Outro: Tear live, Jump performance at 5th muster in Osaka…like you said, so many options!💜
You guys definitely watch the rap line's Outro Tear (Wembly Stadium), Ugh& Cypher (Busan concert) live. Heavy stuff!
@@cuesegue first the actual songs then live performance:)
@@CupofLoffee yes, especially live performances since there are usually no subtitles available for those.
@@CupofLoffee honestly for Dionysus at the MMA it would be great if they watched the entire performance but again, it would be best if they also watched all of the MV’s for the songs they perform, including the ones where they do the solo performances yeah?
Man, you have to check out Suga's Daechwita.
He's going on a solo world tour !
