I'm so happy I was able to do this and really excited that I get to share my uncle with everyone :)
Hey Max,
Did you know our Mochie BTS 'Jimin
Hits number #1 Billboards hot 100 charts
with His Solo song call (Like Crazy) MV,
so Congrates to 'Jimin victory win here
for being the first Solo Korean asian
Artist to hit number #1 on Billboards top
100 hot charts so again Congrates to 'Jimin wins we hadn't see this since his
boys BTS as group hit number #1 on Hot
100 Billboards charts a few years back,
BTS was thee first Males Korean Asian Group ever hit Hot 100 charts Billboards
on a english song call 'Dynamite.
But, BTS Bros are very proud of their
Jimin even tho BTS is basically on hiatus
as group, until they reunited in year 2025,
after they all done of their Solo's projecrs albums and other Korean TV shows, and their Military services duties complexion..😅✌💜
Anyhow, Thanks for this reaction on BTS,
you look just like your Uncle how lovely,
He's amazing just like you Max thanks
for this..🙏💜🥰
really really loved the video more like this hope to get more from your uncle thanks much love 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I like your uncles sweater!
This was great. I hope we get to see him more often
Your interactions with him are so soft and thoughtful. 😁 It's really nice to see how you talk with him (and it's not very different from how you talk to us; I think you have the same sincerity you appreciate in the guys).
It's so cute when he raises his hand to talk...
It’s adorable!! 💜
Totally !
reminds me of taehyung 🥺🥺
I’m not a psychologist, but I was raised by one. My dad passed before I discovered BTS, so I never got to hear his perspective. It’s wonderful hearing your uncle confirm my feelings on the boys: they are genuine, and they really love their fans. I’m 53 years old, and your uncle is old enough to point out another important aspect: instead of hiding from or avoiding fans, BTS seeks them out, and wants to communicate. Never in my life have I seen any celebrity reach out to their fans the way BTS does. I would love to hear your uncle’s observations when all 7 are together, like the 2022 FESTA.
Thanks for the message. The plan is to get him on more videos :)
Thanks for sharing your comment. Thoroughly enjoyed reading it😊
Exactly!!! BTS are genuine guys, and the fact they are open to the small details, like when they make mistakes, is such an important thing for me, that's why I'm here since the start and will keep going with them until the end
He is so right about V, he is not in your face but instead you get drawn in by his charm..
He's always in his own world 💜
“Yoongi, marry me,” is a running joke with lives. The finger sign you called a snap is a mini heart. Jimin is a caretaker. He was running off to make the ramen to share with his hungry members. This was very interesting. Thank you for bringing your uncle on!
It is a "running joke" that the guys are already tired of reading on their lives. Also, "I am the wife of..." Toxic ARMY needs to read a bit more so they can make intelligent and interesting questions to the guys before the mute comments during lives.
another day V gets called the james dean haha
When he said that the boys come to their audience instead of the audience coming after them it was a great point
This is a great point and it reminds me of the BTS logo, which is an opening door they're coming through, and the ARMY logo which is the same door on the other side, being opened towards us.
BTS is actually an acronym for Bangtan Sonyandan, which is roughly translated as Bullet proof Boy Scouts. That make the acronym ARMY make more sense. Also, V is not tuned out. I originally thought so too, but the more you watch him you’ll see that he is hearing every word. He absorbs and processes before he speaks. Thanks for you thoughts. Fun

Hobi sitting on the floor and the maknae line is on the top. For a first glance they are dominating him, but actually he is the best in technology, and he decides about the camera angle, the beginning, the end, and moderates the chat with the fans.
8:24 I think most Army can't imagine being called anything else, and the name is actually really fitting. BTS in Korean stands for Bulletproof Boy Scouts and when they first formed in 2013 and earlier they were all under 20 years old. They wanted to write about topics that were important to them, and didn't shy away from being critical of the education system and society in general that places immense pressure on teens to achieve (suicide rates for teens is really high). They wanted to be the voice for their generation and act as a shield and protection (check out the lyrics of their early work No More Dream and N.O) ...and you need an army to do that. Also, the group themselves, when you get into their backstory, needed their fans to be as protective and loyal as they are to get any headway in the industry. Army is the perfect name.
True. Plus ARMY is an acronym for Adorable Representative MC for Youth.
☝☝This is what I was coming to say... Let's be clear, it's attached to the group name somehow or fan directed just like any other Kpop group. BTS is a 3rd generation Kpop boy group, so, naming their fandom in this similar fashion was not new. When they debuted they had to work under the template & schematic set out by the Big 3 record labels--SME, JYP, & YGE. But, BTS's fandom name is extremely meaningful to them...as well as the merch... like the light stick they refer to as a BOMB. Maybe to someone who doesn't know how precious these boys are might read this stuff first and think they're militant..they are, just not in the derogatory fashion. They're militant about addressing societal issues that no one their age was willing to address in a way that touched the populace, and Army protect them from any blow back they get for being the voice for them and raising awareness.
Agreed. I can see how someone without context could see it how he has here, but with the history and knowing the band, I think the fans take pride in being their ARMY. We're very protective and defensive of our bulletproof boys. 💜
And the logo before was a Bulletproof vest
But does Taylor Swift call her fans Swifties? I know the fans made that name and everyone uses it but I keep seeing Taylor call them fans. I might be wrong and haven’t seen enough content of her but I remember thinking this when I saw an interview with her and the interviewer kept saying Swifties while Taylor would use Fans throughout the conversation. Although I do believe Swifties is copyrighted by her.
TAEHYUNG is wearing Vintage Bush Gavin Rossdale Photo T Shirt and it's sold out. Lol
I love that he called Taehyung the James Dean one. Accurate
V was the one I first heard on a YT short singing a Christmas song while holding his little dog. 2022. I did connect with his farm background and I think that hard life can mature a person beyond their years. Also his Grandmother passing so soon as he debuted and she raised him while his Mother was working in another country. That is what I read. Trying to keep truth in knowledge. Love what they represent!!
Wow, what better way to discover taehyung than listening to his beautiful voice
His mother wasn't working on another country???
Both his father and mother worked out of the town/village maybe...
@@kamalhossan5694his mom and dad worked in the city. And its common to send the oldest child to the grandparents in SK so that they have their needs taken care of and won't be neglected. Tae's parents were expecting their second child l/Tae's brother so they did that
Thanks for the clarification. It will take me 2 years just to get the info. So much to know!
@@7RainyDaysthjk yes you are right...
Tae's brother is around jk's age right??
Hobi sat at the front so that he could easily read the messages of the armys. He likes to interact with them and share his tmi. Armys who have been to the bts concert once said that Hobi often goes to the corner where the camera can't catch, in order to interact with them. When it is necessary to be funny regardless of the image to activate the atmosphere, he will always stand up. but he's a quiet guy irl. He's not the type to put himself at the forefront in order to show off; instead, he always gives others the opportunity to show their strengths.
There's a bit of misunderstanding about Jhope. Jhope is always cheerful and sometimes loud but he is not the type that's wanting to be at the forefront to catch attention.
Yeah Hobi always handles the technology when it’s the group like this. He’s great and he reads comments. He’s just lovely. I’m going to miss him while he’s in the military 😭 he enlists tomorrow it seems.
According to the old armys... the stage names and personas of the seven members were all given by the company, some baby armys think Hobi is too loud and even dislike him, but few people would think about how much pressure he was under for this image.
After Hobi's military service announcement came out, he comforted armys on Instagram or live several times in a timely manner. He's the one who's going to do military service, but he never mention his worries about the unknown life in the military...when I saw the news that Hobi, who was noisy in the eyes of others, entered the military so quietly, my emotions suddenly collapsed, he has been a person who has nothing to do with show off and selfishness.
He is off in the assessment of Hobi, not a show off at all. He gives total Pisces vibe; uplifter! 25:14
I don't know why people think like that but honestly, he is a very lovely person. He gives off sunflower vibes 💜
From one V-ias to another . . . Uncle has great taste 👍💜
High-five!!!
I count myself as part of their Army (Adult Role Models of Youth). As a 68 year old Grandmother, the boys give me hope for the future generations and as role models. I love them so much. Remember, these boys have been together since they were kids and even lived together. V is my bias due to his personality, how he thinks and feels, so much like me. Thank you for sharing your uncle with us.
I love all 7, but V is my bias from the vocal line. I love his deep sultry and silky vocals. He's my R&B guy 💜
Yoongi aka Suga is my bias from the rap line. He's such a genius and kindhearted man. I absolutely adore him 💜
same!
V is so different and charm 💜
The guy on V shirt is Gavin Rossdale, the lead singer of the 90s alternative band BUSH. I love the video. Love hearing what your uncle had to say about the boys.
I was curious to know who it was too. Bush - Letting the Cables Sleep is my favourite song of theirs. V used to be one of my 4 main biases but now I'm OT7.
@@MargotDePerla good you are 07 bias but keep supporting and loving V please❤❤❤...i am suprised you could move on from V..because he is like an addiction and not easy to leave💜..from last 8yrs i am stanning him harder and harder with every year🤗❤❤❤❤
omigosh, really? it looked identical to his friend in Paris, (alex?) can't remember his name, thought he wore it for his friend !
@@MargotDePerla when you have 4 biases it's just a matter of time lol
Isn't he the one who cheated on Gwen Stefani?
I love the way they kept saying love you and hugging each other, this video screams “self awareness, healthy relationship, masculinity as it should be” love you both 🤍
Anyone who gets attracted to V wins my heart and shows they got taste and class❤..V is one BTS member who has been most famous since first day of BTS debut so he has seen a lot in this industry but still he is unique, confident and ethereal...He is legend who has faced everything boldly and strongly🙌
Love for you to show your uncle the Festa dinner party where they talk about their burnout and subsequent break from group activities. Love to see your uncle analyze RM and Suga.
This would be interesting, and RM’s subsequent solo lives have a different vibe than the other members. It’s not as relaxed as these lives, but we often get our wise words from him then.
Oh that would be a really interesting one
I second that
I third that.
yessss
I think it would be cool for him to watch something that shows the members showing their own feelings and emotional struggles as well, like one of the multiple times they open up about how they feel or go into philosophical talks about happiness and stuff, cuz I personally think that is when they show the most when it comes to emotional maturity, especially namjoon and yoongi
maybe festa 2018? or 2022, tho we're still traumatized from that one lol
I can't watch 2022 again yet... 😅😢
Wait changing my answer to Festa 2019
Not festa 2022😭
@@armying_jkk we're all a bit scarred huh
@@evantesseract737 sort of but that was quite a scare to us ...🫣 I am still not that emotionally strong.😆
There is also one thing that I think ur uncle might find interesting. V used to present himself, at the beginning of BTS, very differently than he does now. He would be very bright, random, and active, kind of like J-Hope. He was known to be very eccentric and bubbly. What turned him into someone calm and collected is actually subject to quite a lot of theorizing! Quoting the ones off the top of my head there is the fact that people used to bully him for how unique and random he was, the fact that the change happened right after he lost a very dear family member, or simply the fact that he’s grown and people change. This subject is actually a sensitive topic in fandom, causing a lot of discourse. I personally am against theorizing too much about people’s private lives, but what ur uncle pointed out about him made me think of this. He still is as eccentric, unique and bubbly as he used to be! He just has a very selective way of showing this side of himself now, and appears to be more on the reserved side as time passes
😢
Here's the thing. He never tried. How he was back then was totally him too. He grew up. Thats all.
@@gudly8 we’ll never know for sure and that’s ok. No need to make theories it’s none of our business
@@martianram look who's talking 😐
@@gudly8 wtf did I do? Did u even read my comment in its entirety? Weirdo
Not sure if anyone answered it yet, but your uncle asked who V was representing on his t-shirt. That would be Gavin Rossdale. He's been in a couple groups, as well as had a solo career. Bush and The Institute are 2 of the groups he's been a lead singer for, and his genre is difficult for me to figure out. It's got elements of Rock and Grunge, but other as well. I'm surprised your uncle caught onto that. (He's more late 90's/early 2000's, I think, and has delved into acting a little, as well.) So I can see how V might find him inspirational.
Yeah I was going to say it was Gavin from Bush
I was just about to answer about Gavin on the tshirt. I am a 48 year old army grew up loving alternative, rap and rock but BTS got my heart now,
I paused the video when he said; "someone please tell us who's on V's shirt", to search for this exact comment. Thank you so much for letting us know. :)
I was looking for this comment, before I posted it myself. Yes, That's Gavin Rossdale from Bush. But they were close, Nirvana, Soundgarden, they almost got it, It's from the same music scene and era.
I would say more mid to late 90s. That's when Bush was real popular.
your uncle and V would get along well cos hes such an old soul. plus his selection of music goes way back then. he has the most grandpa taste in music among them. exquisite i might say.
thank u max! more of this pls! 💝
Вы озвучили мои мысли.
Only V has great taste / knownledge abt world of music old n new various music genre singers among the other bts boys has esp vocal line (even in old n new korean singers music / lyrics) He won't just sing /listen only JB ,Ari , Harry, charly puth hit songs to get a collab w them or litterally just knows abt some k pop singers only like BANGBANG etc like some other bts members....😒
Also cos V was very close to his gran ma, he relates deep down with older generation too. Love V and Jungkook. They are my biases. #taekook for sure.
The Busan concert is significant bc it's their last one as a group for a while before enlisting in the military. Also Busan is Jimin and JK's hometown and it was Jimin's birthday a few days ago.
And what theyre doing with their fingers is a heart. 😂
JHope is very emotive and very reactive. Watch when he gets scared or happy ... JHope shows his emotions with his entire body. I attribute it to his dancing and spatial awareness of his body.
Beautiful video. Your uncle became V bias in minutes.
Your uncle is on point and my bias is also V.
Taehyung has a unique charm that makes everyone smile and happy just by looking at him he's an angel❤
Was going to comment but I was so late to the video there are hundreds of comments already. Loved meeting Uncle Harley, thought he was very astute and your relationship seems lovely. Max, you really have not come across the Korean heart yet? Really surprised but now you know you will spot it in more videos. The Yet to Come concert in Busan was lit. I watched it on the live stream and was blown away in the first few seconds. The audience sang Happy Birthday to Jimin and it was a real treat for JK and Jimin to perform in their home town. Would love for you to show your uncle more of BTS 💜
Thanks! Yes, definitely come across the finger heart but just assumed it was a little unique hand gesture/acknowledgment to the fans. Lol didn’t realize it was an actual heart!
Such a shame your uncle thought j-hope was a show-off; he’s sitting by the camera to read comments and to take care of the VLive, not to show-off. He’s very generous with sharing the spotlight with all the members.
It's because the uncle watch only one video about them, if he like to watch more videos about all members, then he will have other opinion, it will be fair.
Actually sometimes I feel that V, on many concerts, who wants to be the centre of attention.
@@linairawati8396 they cannot decide by themselves who the centre is, and V does not need another attention and steal all the spotlights, he doesn't like to be one. Yes, I'm V biased and Suga is my bias wrecker but I love them all.
@@eunchaneunchan I said from what I watched, my opinion came from that.
@@linairawati8396 and your opinion is very subjective as you are a non biased V 💅🏻😌
the best v
I agree with what he said about V. He is naturally cool. Would love to see your uncle react to a performance! Also we can see the resemblance. 2 handsome men!
Loved his impressions and description of taehyung 👏🏻
Actually, the Busan concert was highly important for BTS:
1. It was their last concert as a group (because they have to enlist to do the mandatory military service), they will comeback up until 2025, meanwhile they are focusing in their solos work and eventually they will enlist one by one.
2. The concert and the attendance concert was huge, basically the entire city of Busan became BTS city, everything and everywhere was BTS tematic. This concert helped to raise the economics of the city and increase tourism.
3. The concert was free because it was meant to help the Korean goverment. The goverment wanted to promote Busan to be elegible to the "World Expo", and BTS, being the pride of Korea, was chosen for their massive popularity and influence.
4. Busan is Jimin's and Jungkook's hometown, so being welcomed as superstars was very meaningful for them.
edit:
Also
5. It was their first post-pandemic concert, and they were hella excited to finally perform infront of a live audience everything they had been preparing for years but couldn't show us because their World Tour was cancelled due to the lockdown 😢
Basically, BTS put their blood, sweat and tears for this concert and they said that it brougth them lots of joy and happiness 🥺, so as you can see, they can't stop talking about it.
(Sorry for my english, I'm not a native speaker)
Your English is outstanding! Based on your writing, people wouldn't question if English was your native language.
The government also f* up so much that I think a kindergardener could organize it better. Thank you for K-Army and thank you for Big Hit taking over.
It also was 2 days after Jimin's birthday. Some Army visited his father's Cafe.
@@karlatrigueros4359 Thank you 💜 🥺
@@ruthfischer7615 Facts.
Although BTS is the pride of Korea, the truth is that the Korean government doesn't know how to handle BTS' succes and it shows, they continue to embarrass themselves with their incompetence.
*writes amazing english*
"Sorry for my english"
HUH?? Other than maybe a few typos, that was a perfectly typed explaination.
Taehyung is my bias too 🥰
Your uncle seems real cool haha. @ 4:22 it was kinda funny asking if V talked. I think V can be introverted at times and a bit aloof. If you watch his solo livestreams, it can seem very calm like he's always thinking about something, and he takes his time to say what he's thinking. But that's just one side of him depending on his mood or the topic.
It looks like Gavin Rossdale, the lead singer of Bush on V's tee.
V is really unique, I love everything about him and I'M V BIAS TOO😂💜
Damn ur uncle is spot on with V having that charisma n confidence that’s not so ‘out there’ but very alluring and that jhope’s charisma is more expressive n ‘out there’. V’s latest pics on Vogue Korea totally has James Dean vibes too!!
I really like this uncle,taehyung is like that he's silent already in the spotlight😅,
Did not think this would happen today but I love you and your uncle - WOW!! I am 56 (American born & raised) ** ARMY ** since 2020 - BTS helped me through cancer during COVID with all the love & support they show each other AND ARMY. I live in a happy, happy BTS world and WILL meet them someday. My daughter (20 now) loved BTS for YEARS and I was concerned because of different cultures (ignorant, I know - they are more polite than we are) and ended up discovering BTS on my own through Target's commercials using Dynamite. I absolutely LOVE that song and found out months later that it was BTS when I recorded MTV's BTS Unplugged for my daughter. I FELL IN LOVE and am happily STAYING THERE. We need more people like BTS. Max, tell your uncle I am OT7 (but was hooked originally by the one & only JIMIN). Oh, and did I mention that BTS has an ENDLESS list of AWESOME SONGS???? Glad you popped up on my TH-cam. I have subscribed. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Enjoyed watching the reaction with your uncle. As a longtime "Silver Army", it was nice seeing someone nearer my age (85) enjoying BTS! 💜
Silver Army here myself. 64 yo f. I first randomly ran across the guys when they released the official MV “Life Goes On”. It was dead pandemic time where we were locked down due to Covid. Just before this I had been diagnosed with Lymphoma Stage IV. I felt hopeless and then I saw the video w CC. It gave me hope and helped me be motivated to get to chemo. The more I watched their previous videos the more I connected w their message and kindness. BTW my Cancer isn’t curable the treatments will help prolong my life. Well the Drs said I had 3-9 years. Well they’ve gotten me through a lot of sleepless night w their positive vibes. I’ve made my 3 year mark on Jan 2, 2023 and I’m shooting for another 3. I’ll shoot for another 3 over and over. I have 3 children, 16 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren and I fight for them. BTS really pulled me out of my stupor and I’ll be Silver Army until I die (God willing I’ll outlive my expiration date) Thanks Matt! This was interesting.
@@winkpinky1445 hi, your comment just touched my heart. I pray that you are doing well.
20:49 V conquering hearts regardless of age. Our James Dean V, Handsome guy
I don't normally watch this type of video. But I must say I really enjoyed it and I will definitely watch more videos. Being a person from the backstreet boys generation, I always think how lucky this generation is to be able to have this contact in real time with their idols. I think Bts are really genuine. Like your uncle, V is my bias. His personality is very interesting. I feel he has an old soul, not in a perjurative way but as a very special person.
One of the most interesting BTS reactions I've seen. Hoping for him to react on Yoongi. And yeah we have same bias, V.😊
I think JHope is right next to camera because that is where he had to sit. Actually he does everything he possibly can to make sure the other members shine. Smiling and being animated is his personality not to get attention.
It's his 3 baby dolls after all 😂
I believe it's his hotel room, too.
Hobi often sits at the end s the others can do their stuff
If you're an ARMY you'd probably know each members characteristics. And you'll always find their behavior normal to their personalities. His uncle is not ARMY and one video is not enough to characterize each member,I hope he can see more of BTS videos so he'll get to know them more.💜
I don't think attention-seeking is inherently negative. It's just certain stereotypes put on celebrities, especially Kpop idols, make that term seem negative. Jhope acts a certain way for ARMY and that in itself is attention-seeking. Jin, admittedly, does similar things. He's not saying there's anything wrong, just he's a more in-your-energy/space type of charisma, whereas V is a more subdued charisma. That is part of their appeal though, how different they all are and how well they work together. I love their differences like most of ARMY does :) I hope that helps to appease any fears you might have about what he said!
The hands are the actual heart shape with the fingers arteries! Love your uncle, he would have been great at his profession as he perceives accurately quickly. As a silver army, I appreciate that he is so open to accepting something new with enthusiasm against what would be expected of his age. Looking forward to more. It's nice to see such respectful, loving interaction between you. BTW, the Busan concert was free and and it was used to perhaps get Busan accepted for the World Expo 2030. Watch it, it's fantastic. I predict he will be blown away if he gets to know them. V says love us all! This is called OT7.
Actually the heart hand sign isn’t actually supposed to look like the organ/arteries, ppl made that up bc it also does look like that, but Koreans have confirmed that it’s just the two fingers making the heart shape😊
As a silver army Psychotherapist, I agree! Uncle saw and heard and commented accurately.
The overlapped finger position creates a heart shape.
That was immediately after their final concert, they knew it, but we didn't yet... That was possibly the last post concert followup...😢
Did you tell him how they are all Jungian educated and their songs and videos have Jungian hero themes, or ego and shadow conflicts? But...that leads to the BTS rabbit hole! I found BTS through my therapy clients across ages, who claim BTS helped them learn to love themselves. I had to check them out after
Very interesting! I am a silver ARMY, and my daughter who could actually be a young ARMY, she is 25 doesn’t really care about the group. 🙋♀️💜🙏🏻🥰
I live the Silver ARMY name!!
Such a pleasure to see your uncle and to hear his thoughts.
You both do look like family. 💜
Jimin was running in and out because he was getting the ramyeon for them.
JHope was sitting near the computer because he was monitoring the live on the screen.
Great to have your uncle with this analysis… I believe he’ll be army soon :)
Just couple comments for your uncle.
Jhope is the oldest of the four in this group. I think he wasn’t being a show off but rather he’s humble enough to let the 3 younger members be on major part of screen, and him sitting on the floor instead; also having done this live sessions for the past 10 years, they’re all very comfortable with army and him sitting right by the monitor just shows his comfort level
On jimin, he does have funny and mischievous moments and his own members have said that he’s been the funniest these days, although in this particular live session, he wasn’t pranking and having a side show; instead he’s being his usual self making ramen for them to snack on, knowing they’re probably hungry having just finished two hour concert and not having eaten dinner yet. So it’s always him being caring for his members, he likes taking care of the 2 younger ones v and jk and his bff jhope of course.
As a fan, I personally feel much more connected to them when they refer to us as army rather than the fans/viewers! It feels like just something between us (despite a lot of ppl knowing our fan base name haha). I think it’s partially because they use the fan base name when referring to us much more than most western artists do. Also because they tend to say “our army” quite often too, which is more endearing, and more so in the Korean language as well.
They also use "fans" to make subtly clear that they didn't like something. I don't remember anymore what was done by ARMY but it was one of the dumb actions and they after referred in one BigHit note to us as fan not as ARMY, felt like being scolded
@@skarbuskreska umm what do you mean? I didn't understand can you explain
@@anjalirawat5177 it only happened a couple of times, for example some years ago (I think around 2018) armys were passing around paid content illegally too often and bighit came out with an statement that included bts "FANS" in it instead of ARMY and it really felt like being scolded, like losing ur name and everything, very traumatic honestly LMAO, it just doesn't feel right
@@dan.dandan oh, Thank you I had no idea . It might felt like loosing title or something
if army didn't have a military meaning, on a sonic level, it's actually kind of a cute word, like Ernie, and we don't even think of it in a military way when we say it
The guy on Tae’s T-shirt is Gavin Rossdale, guitarist and singer with the English band Bush. It’s lovely to see you with your uncle on here. Me and my fellow army love the name, we see ourselves as being part of one massive family. The acronym is Adorable Representive M.C’s for Youth. Busan was their last concert for a couple of years and Jimin and Jungkook are from there too. ✌️💜
I thought that's who it was but wasn't sure...
I became the army because of V. I was mesmerized by his looks.
Same
Same
Me too
Same.... then i heard his voice, his cool style, his ability in many things, his fashion, his dance, his talent. Okay this V is really extraordinary. 🎉❤
Same 💜
about them turning off the live and what they might think or say to each other: Jimin these days was live on his way home by car and he hasn't done more laid back spontaneous livestreams like that in a long while, it's always kind of scheduled unless he's with other members, but this time he did a spontaneous live and nearing the end of the live he said something like "it's really fun to do lives like this" and his manager thought the live was over and Jimin was talking to him and not with ARMY. That led us to think that Jimin saying sweet things like that is really common if the manager thought the live was over.
James Dean he said😮,show him the magazine ELLE X Taehyung
Nice reaction with your uncle Harley, Max. Btw that's a Gavin Rossdale shirt V is wearing
Taehyung ❤
The gesture of the two fingers coming together, the thumb and the index, is a cute South Korean way to make a tiny heart :-)
Your uncle is pretty cool, do bring him around more 💜
This video is amazing, i love your uncle ❤
Thank you! He's the best.
@@maxpbeaumont Pls can you explain how Army or its acronym sound corny to you?
What exactly makes it corny?
Also the finger gesture is NOT finger snapping. It's called finger hearts which means I Love You.
The thumb and forefinger basically forms a heart shape.
@@BabyDoll-qo7ol it is pretty corny, armys joke about it all the time, it’s not that deep
@BabyDoll anything with "adorable" in it screams corny lmao
@@BabyDoll-qo7ol keep in mind his uncle isn’t a army, it will obviously seem corny to people who don’t know who army actually are and what army stands for. At least he wasn’t straight up hating the fandom name but give him some time, and when he finds out what it actually means his opinion will probably change..
Been ARMY since 2013. Adorable Representative M.C. For Youth
OMGG YESS VVVVV
19:01 This was filmed in October, but in June they formally announced their hiatus as a band while the members fulfill their mandatory military obligation, so in a sense the Busan concert is their last scheduled concert until at least 2025 and maybe even beyond that consider the time it will take them to come back together, create new concepts, prepare, etc. Besides that, when it went public that they would be focused on solo work for the time being the news outlets all exaggerated and created panic by saying the band was breaking up to the point that Hybe corp lost billions in stocks. Also, as of the filming of this live, J-Hope had already released his solo album and headlined Lalapalooza.
Actually we didn’t know they were going into the military until AFTER this live.
@@arcollins040thomas8 true but we kinda knew it was on the cards
4:57 that's the singer Anson Seabra. Tae recommend a few of his songs
Army is adorable representative Mc for youth
Is it? the comment section is sure that it is Gavin Rossdale (from the Band Bush).
@@ruthfischer7615 ops, it seems like I was wrong. I really thought it was Anson
And that's also a reason why Taehyung is the most popular member. He attracts attention so quickly no matter where he is💜
The finger move is V's way of saying "I purple you" which means I love you to Armys
It was interesting how your uncle picked up on Taehyung. He’s such an interesting character, sometimes quiet and detached and sometimes really into what’s going on. The others thought he was an alien when they first lived together because he’d burst into activity out of the blue but also sit and talk to himself in TaeTae. SUGA thought he was putting it on but once he realised that that was the real Taehyung he accepted him and supported him rather like a father and son relationship or certainly a real older brother. Now he’s matured he’s quietened down a lot but he’s a divergent thinker so he’s still a bit off the wall. They were making the Korean heart with their fingers.
am since 2015 to kpop/bts.... I don't think so.... suga being father or older brother to tae n other boys i have seen suga being a very grumpy, , self centered guy who easly loose his temper very ditached n rude to other members n fans... old korean armys even call him " Grumpy Grandpa yoongi" in korean....
@@blueberryj4351 they called him grandpa becuase it was started by jk calling him that ,,, in olden days back in 2014 in a interview v & jhope already said suga silently take cares of members
@@blueberryj4351 that's what they said...
He looks like he doesn't care but he does alot - jin...
You missed the main point bro
@@blueberryj4351 sounds so rude....huh.... don't act as if u know em in person....... everyone has different personality....and acc to meeh suga is one of the most caring person in the entire grp but he doesn't likes to show it off......he is the bst epitome of grow silently.... and if u can't say anything gud then stop speaking.....then blabbering nonsense without any pre knowledge bout anyone and anything....
@@blueberryj4351if you really knew yoongi you would know that he’s not a hot tempered or grumpy guy at all. He’s just really calm in nature and keeps to himself at times but can be super goofy when he wants to be. Him being cold hearted is just a early stereotype and many army’s should know by now he is not like that. He’s like the type of person that never raises his voice even when he’s angry.
V left for mexico after this concert he shot a cooking show there with some of his other celebrity friends..J Hope and Jimin released an album so this shows how hard these guys work for their fans
And also JK was being preparing himself for be the spotlight in the world cup, right?
Busan is Jimin and Jk's hometown. So before this concert I'm sure these two were having a meal with their families.
This was their final concert before BTS members start their individual mandatory military 2 year enlistment.
This concert was free and close to 100,000 ARMY attended. This was also Live streamed for millions of International ARMY as well!
Jimin, J-hope, V and Jk
started this livestream right after their concert ended. 💜😊🎉
I am a 51 year old woman and been part of the bts army for a little bit over a year and love them. Thanks to my youngest daughter that introduced me to their music. They bring so much pure and genuine caring for human kind in general. It still gives the message of loving yourself and others with a lot of inocense even thou they are man and they can think like it. They have been thru a lot in their personal lives before getting to this point and that is why their unity is 100% real. Nothing is fake about it. My plans are for 2026 to visit South Korea with my 2 daughters that are also fans (army) and visit everything that was important for BTS including their first dorm, different museums dedicated to them. I believe Jimin and Jungkook are from Busan if I am not mistaken...
As armys even when we have a bias we love to shower every member with love 💜
I love how opened he is, makes sense now seeing how nice max himself has always been :)
The hand gesture at the end is a "Korean finger heart."💜
It was a very refreshing and interesting vid, thanks to your uncle for his sincere and clever appreciation.
Our boys all are different and special, as Taehyung bias myself, Im very happy he could see the real Taehyung, happy and handosme, your uncle so clever!! in minutes he got Taehyung´s James Dean vibe, what is exactly what he is.
Great!
V is so interesting artist I have ever seen 😂he is so unique and underrated 💜
Underrated???..He has been single handle been most popular BTS Member for whole decade..Till 2019 no other idol stood near to popularity of king kim Taehyung..its only after 2019 other bts members like jungkook saw fame...you new armies are so ignorant of BTS journey i swear..idols now days see popularity..kim Taehyung has lived Legacy🙌🤴
@@gags5551 She ment it by talent
@@kimmiffy8873 exactly... his voice is what got me into bts...
But sad people focus more into his visuals... I mean I understand... he is way too handsome with charms... but he has a very beautiful voice too... he does work on his music... he has so many unreleased songs... only if people had praised him more for his vocals maybe he would have released those without any doubt in his mind..
@@kamalhossan5694 I agree with you....the first BTS member I encounter is V. Because he is my sister's bias. Even tho he is extremely handsome and charming he wasn't my bias. I found Namjoon really attractive and talented and all I knew about V is that he looks good. Whenever I ask any Army friend about V, they said how good he is on stage how he looked so cold an extremely good looking and charming... This and that. I was going on in really bad situation and that made me emotionless and I stopped crying no matter what. When I first time hear "Winter bear" I cried after so many day. It's not about song it's something about his voice is so magical that brings back all my emotions which I felt I lost years ago. Before that I didn't gave him much importance. After that I tried to know him, started to give him my attention and eventually I came to understand how unique he is. How much pure and soft he is, How he is so deep like his voice. And I feel sad when no one appreciate his talent. I know that he feels insecure about his voice. In any reaction video in comment section every Army I was talking about how every member is talented. But no one talks about V's talent. Even his own Stans don't appreciate his talents and only talks about his looks. His own Stans don't encourage him to release his songs they don't give him confidence about his talent. That's how he's the most popular member of BTS and also the most underrated BTS member by talent.✌🏻
(And V is my bias now💜✌🏻)
@@kimmiffy8873 Ikr ... you are so on point... I relate so much...
People literally will go crazy over him but don't know his solo works... how sad..
Stigma, singularity, inner child, sweet night, snow flower, winter bear, Christmas love etc all his songs are so good... but do people care ?
And that's why I'm so exited for his album... because this time people can't but look into it... I want people to see what he has for us...
I wish his vocals gets the praises it deserves... because that's his main identity
Re: offending army - they do keep it real with us too. Namjoon in his recent live said he was disappointed by the chat being really weird , and even said it might be better if he did a live with the chat turned off next time. Really hope that was a wake up call to people typing weird things in chat.
In another live, Jungkook, in as sweet a way as possible, asked people to respect their boundaries and not find them outside of official scheduled events (some people found him at the gym because he did a live stream there)
Doubt that.
Because they don't think it is weird or feel called out.
I was emberassed when I saw their third UN speech and saw what some people commented.
We have tried so often to stop some of the more idiotic comments. I hate the shippers in chat!
@@ruthfischer7615 I wish we could get moderators in the chat, like actual mods in real time that could ban and clean the chat.
@@dan.dandan Don't think it would work:
Too many comments to even see those that drop the most BS. Except if they copy&paste their comments too often.
But one could wish (and it isn't only on weverse/Big Hit/HYBE etc. it is in every event BTS is part of and that has a livestrem with chat.)
I wish those "Army" would be more respectful to also the other people be it in chat or in the livestream.
They have more than once broke livestream especially for people with a not so good connection. But they won't listen/ignore the begging.
@@dan.dandan THAYS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING
Your uncle will become a solid ARMY once he listens to their music. The integrity in most of their lyrics will pull him in!
Thanks you did a good judgement to them, and made us more open and understand the members situation. BTS is a therapeutic to most of their fans ,watching them naturally without any inhibition and most specially V who doesn't care about what he gonna be look on camera when he does some facial expressions,whether he gonna look ugly or whatever ,he's a real person whom doesn't need to look good but give he's self as a simple human in front of us. Again thanks 🙏 the both of you sir.
С любым выражением лица Тэхен выглядит красиво... Это не каждому дано
yeah, it's beautiful to see the relationship they have with each other outside the business
army is an acronym for adorable representative mc for youth, lol
I think it mays sound distant cuz it's an actual word that someone who isn't a fan uses in their life and already has a certain connotation for it on their mind, but it doesn't feel cold for us
also, in Korean they say 아미, which sounds more like ami, and feels even warmer than army lol
If you haven't got this yet, the symbol with the fingers is a little heart. They do the hearts to say love to ARMY.
This video makes me happy especially at the end when your uncle hugged you ❤️💜BTS is the most humble group of people out there. They love each other and they love ARMYS genuinely 💜💜
So cool! To add, BTS named us ARMY on July 9, 2013. In Korean, it's written more like "ami"....it sounds cute and sweet. I've seen breakdowns of the name itself! For example, ARMY also sounds like "areumi" which is Korean for beautiful...and ARMY technically stands for Adorable Representative MC's for Youth...tho we don't tell our government name to everyone on first meeting😅...having heard them call us ARMY for years and years. .its a term of endearment, a matter of pride almost. I love the name, love how strong and unapologetic it sounds....like it way more than "Swifties", "Lil Monsters" etc, even tho I like those artists and consider myself a casual fan..but I'm a proper fan of BTS, you know? We have a special bond. It may be be separated by kilometers and it may be parasocial, but we support each other in our own way and have shared thousands of memories with each other. It's a unique relationship
Unintended, but ami also means friend in French. ARMY is a great name for us. I like how much meaning it has, unlike all the Western fandom names that's just part of the artist's name...
Very well said!
What is MC? Sorry for my ignorance.
@@leahkalkbrenner6172 master of ceremonies...its a title for the person who hosts an event, usually, like the person who introduces artists on stage
We are "ARMY" because we've GOT THEIR BACK! And I'm 63! I
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 my Boysss!
J-Hope is no show-off, he is the most lovable and caring person, and very humble.
Agree.
If this was your introduction to Hobi you might well think he is a show off. You would have limited perspective and no comparison at all.
Absolutely
@@karenvonbargen4472 rubbish
Exactly he is very caring and loving you know the kind of guy who just makes you smile. He is just reading the comments that's why he is in front and he usually does that....I love him so much❤❤💜💜
I loved this so much! I love psychology and the analysis was compelling. You should watch Jungkook's live from earlier today. He folded his laundry while he talked to us. One day last week, he cooked and ate his dinner. That's why they are so real to us. They just do regular mundane things just like we all do. I'm a 63 year old grandma and I love them all so much. Thank you for the video.
Ahh uncle is v baised 💜💜 same here😂😂
It's Gavin Rossdale from Bush - the guy on V's shirt
Not your uncle drawing parallels for V and james dean. V really is the heartthrob of our generation😆
Hand snapping - is the finger heart.
And in the beginning they were not trying not to offend the army....they were basically sarcastically saying how journalists will twist their words and make headlines out of anything they say. This was mainly because journalists had a field day with the BTS festa video....it was a whole mess of click bait articles trending for weeks that they were gonna disband.
HBS...Yes, his comment about V and James Dean...made me think of V's Elle (or was it Vogue?) photoshoot where he immediately made me think of him as the Korean James Dean...gorgeous...!!😳😊😛💜
I totally squealed when he compared Tae to James Dean! 😂. He does have that subdued, quiet charisma that’s still strong even when he’s silent.
Also, I think the whole not trying to offend is also part of their culture. Always respectful and considerate.
@@cindythomas108 Yes,the elle photoshoot really brought put the heartthrob side of him. He looks fantastic in that photoshoot.
It's almost like each member of BTS is singing his own songs for an army of thousands of girlfriends in the audience and the girls really KNOW it!
jhope not a show-off. Every real ARMY (not baby ARMY) knew how caring and how lowkey Jhope
It's endearing the way your uncle calls you Maxwell. You should bring back for guest visits every now and then. This was fun to watch.
Love your uncle, Max. You should have him with you more often. ❤
Army: Adorable Representative M. C. For Youth, and M.C. stands for Master of Ceremonies.
I'm here from Tik Tok, watch a video of your talk about Taehyung, and I was very impressed. I'm not free now, but I'll definitely come back
Jimin is a curious mix of tease, prankster, partner in crime, and voice of reason and expediency, depending on the situation. He has high EQ, is very well spoken, and a hard worker.
Jimin is indeed a very hard worker after watching the behind the scene of him practising his two dance choreography concurrently with his backup dancers.
yes!!! I can't stress that enough, Jimin's emotional intelligence might just be as high as Namjoon's intelligence-intellegence. He's so emotionally aware and cautious, it really should be praised more
I loved that he picked up on this side of Jimin so quickly! I'm a Jimin bias and it's one of the things I love about him as I relate to it so much- that mix of teasing but also very caring and affectionate 🥰
love this episode, let's bring Uncle Harley more and more
BTS was practically raised together. They were so young when they started. They’ve been together for years. They are close as true brothers. ❤
My bias is #V too since he’s a cool cat!
