As a Korean...I looked back why this song couldnt be more popular as much as it deserves....i think it has too heavy topic to digest to us. They touched something we faced but didnt want to mention in our society because we even dont know the solution of that matter. BTS is brave and from the begining, they are not just a pretty singing idol.
I am Arabic Muslim girl and when I fell in this rabbit hole a month ago I wondered!! How Korean react to their art !! They sending a power message that reshape a whole generation!!! All their song bapsiea , spine breaker , no , no more dreams , spring day.and black swan..they make art ..with a wonderful language!! How Korean not seeing that and give them all that hardship issue !! The are making a history!! Why not appreciate from their own people!! That break my heart ..specially when they using their own culture and spread it to the world !
yes sorry to say but some people in korea thinks that bts is overrated . but dude they deserve everything . specially korean media they never shows bts acheivments that much they are kinda ignoring bts . specially when i heard korean native speak about that bts should go for miliatry service i'm not saying they shoudn't its your country's matter i wont say anything but . i didn't like they way they were saying . because they not only helping to expand korean culture but also contributing a lot in korean gdp . today everyone knows korea just because of them and thats the sad realty but some people just dont wont to recognize what they did for them and what they are doing . but i'm glad they have a pretty much army population in korea too who stan bts . (no offence)💜
I'm not a Korean but I am Asian and I was friends with many Koreans, when this song came out it was incredibly brave and quite shocking thay BTS released this, especially only 3 months after debut as it dealt with a very big social problem that Korea (and many other places) have. Anyway, my friends said that the lyrics really touched them because it was like someone else had suddenly spoken out about the problems they are having and that most students were feeling or facing. It just goes to show that BTS's lyrics have always resonated with so many people because they are true to themselves. 💜
when they sing the lyrics "in Seoul to the SKY", SKY refers to the 3 top universities in seoul. S stands for Seoul National University, K for Korea University and Y for Yonsei University. the abbreviation SKY is very commonly used in South Korea when refering to these schools.
Although I’m OT7, the rapline holds a special place in my heart. Here’s how I would describe them: RM has this big commanding voice that demands respect. Even when he goes soft, he sounds like a father comforting his child. J-hope brings a very upbeat energy to his rap with an almost rhythmic singing tone. Makes you happy just listening and looking at him. Suga’s flow and cadence are very poetic. There’s a rawness of emotion in his voice that even if you don’t understand what he’s saying, you can feel it. I like to think RM represents the brain, J-hope the heart and Suga the soul of a song.
RM is my bias and part of the reason is because how powerful he is. He has been through so much at a young age as a member and leader. He has struggled with self image and understanding and loving himself in a way that is so heartbreaking and yet relatable. I think I saw an interview where he changed the questions when he translated them to avoid distressing the other members. I cannot imagine the mental burden on the all over the last few years but especially RM. And just wait until you get to the UN speech! That cemented him as my bias. Love all 7 but he has a special place in my heart.
He is my bias as well. Jin even said that RM is BTS itself in Bangtan Grammy’s and Suga even give a shoutout that without RM it is unlikely they will hit it big in US (things change dramatically after they won BBMA). I watched hip hop critics said if you truly understand hip hop (and remove the language barrier) then you will know that RM is hip hop in a person. His lyrics and production skills are insane, 6/10 songs he wrote are ranked at top 10 Billboard charts.
53 y.o. Texan here - RM was my early bias when I first found BTS...but eventually every other member's personalities, talents, and quirks created their own special places in my heart and now I can only be OT7 💜
Same, i'm a college student and a book lover. I first saw RM in Jack Edwards' YT channel, read Joon's recommendations (Almond, and Orwell's 1984) through Jack and fell in love with the books and with him. I actually read every book that RM had read, love him first, before I get to love his members. It was my gateway to bts, and i'm grateful I had found all 7. love them so much
Imagine BTS as a building. What do we need to enter a building? A door. A door has to be tall, spacious, and sturdy, at the same time painted in beautiful or comforting colors, with intricate designs on the surface and a complex "personality". A door has to have that vibe - inviting, attractive, mysterious even, but also making you know you will be embraced and welcomed if you step inside the building. This has to be the most awkward comparison and compliment anyone has given to RM, yet I hope I illustrated my point well.
@@B16pal Thank you. I don't necessarily consciously try to sound a certain way, the words simply flow through me. Any kind of talent humbles us when we realize we can't completely control it from the outside - it shapes as as much as we change the world around us using it.
I just know Jordan will go insane listening to rap line solo songs especially rm's "monster" and "joke" since he may be your bias, and after listen to this songs he will definitely be!
Personally my favorites on RM’s first mixtape is 1. Do You 2. Awake 3. Monster or Joke 4. Monster or Joke… Just my opinion though. However his lyrics are so good on his first mixtape!
Joke…I can watch that video over and over. RM is my bias wrecker, and he almost wins sometimes. But it’s always been Jimin for me, right from the start.
@@lorismith5195 namjoon is also my bias wrecker! i think at the end of the day it's everyone's hahaha but yeah for me, it's always been hoseok, yoongi and jimin too (i'm a three biases 😆😆)
Stands for No Offense. N.O. O RU L8 2 is one of my fav BTS Albums. Heavy Rap, R&B and Hip Hop. It lives in my CD player in my car. OG, Old Skool BTS hold a special place in my heart❤️. So eager, so raw, so hungry and hard working.💜💜💜💜💜💜
For new discovering ARMYs, it's okay to change biases from time to time. Especially when you watch their shows. For instance, in Run BTS, you'll see the funny side of Jin & Jimin. In Bon Voyage, the baby qualities of Jungkookie. In The Soop ever caring SUGA & Hobi, etc. Each member is unique & likable. 💜
House of Cards is a vocal line BTS track. Another of my favs and it makes me imagine a old smoky jazz club. The live is soooooo good. The mood of the stage was perfect!
i'm so excited. honestly, this song has one of the most unterrated bts performaces ever in my opinion. they performed it on mama2019 and the swag was so present. the "we roll, we roll" part is perfect. I love how good it sounds and this part has my fav part in the choreo. may look simple but it's too cool. i love how it looked with their fits in the mama2019 performance (they also performed bulletproof pt.2 there) so maybe check that one out.
I honestly love the dance break and the end of this song!!! I love the verses. However the chorus or the “we roll, we roll” part for me just seems off…idk just my opinion. However I love how BTS where speaking up since the beginning and I think this message is really good. As for lyrics this song is very underrated and the ending choreography too. (In my opinion)
@@amberpearce710 omg really? i liked the part, in particular, the dance they did there. in the performance i loved how the camera filmed tae from a lower angle which made the move look even more swaggy since it put emphasize on the legs that moved forward while doing body waves. i loved it. bts footwork will never diappoint
@@PeyloBeauty I pay more attention to the how the song sounds and the lyrics when listening to songs. I do watch dance practices for the dances. Idk I do this because I won’t always be watching the music video when listening to the song so I prefer to listen to the song to see if I like how it sounds combined with the lyric. To each their own though. BTS choreography and footwork is amazing.
This song is iconic and was so ahead of its time. I think that's why it was so underrated even though the song is one that means quite a lot to 2013-2014 ARMYs. On the year of its release, there were not many artists or musicians who were so vocal or brave enough to touch this kind of topics (basically about anything that talks about changing the system) because politics in SK were so different then. I hope you'll get to react to their mama2019 performance because they performed this song again after a long time. oh, and the boys usually pronounce the song as "N.O"
After they consume the red pill, I interpreted the next scene sequence as traveling through the brain synapses, because now they are 'awakening' from society's rules and expectations. Your videos always make my day. You nice, keep going!
Guys you can always check to see if there is an explanation/theory on some of their songs which can be really helpful because if you’re not Korean you might not get cultural references. I found these explanation videos very helpful. BTS said this was about the very strict educational system in Korea.
THEEEEE ICONIC N.O!!!!!😭 absolutely love the message of this song and the music video is really cool. The choreography is amazing, as always. Just one of our favourite classics here in our Bora land 💜
Well I'm a little bit sad cuz I'm not able to join the patreon with u guys , and watching u reading the lyrics is one of my fav things on your channel 💔but it's fine💜
Great decision: 1 bias each year, still difficult tho, I can fall in love with 3 of them in the same Run bts episode. (But my eyes and all my heart always come back to Jimin)
2:50 the title of each rise of bangtan chapters were all bts' songs and it somehow describes the theme of that chapter.. it doesn't necessarily means that those songs are part of that particular era (e.g. for chapter 3, the title is house of cards but this song is the outro of their hyyh pt.2 album and a full length version on their hyyh: young forever album. it wasn't part of the era which chapter 3 covered but house of cards describes the situation of the group during that era when they released the o!rul8,2? album). hope my explanation made sense!!
The song that you're referring to is "Mirror" by Justin Timberlake. I've seen the Netflix special Black Mirror as well, and you're right, it does remind me of that. You are absolutely right, BTS are fighting against society in this video...whether it be parents, teachers, bosses whatever. I love your videos!!! BTW I knew RM was your bias and I must tell you he only gets better with age. "House of Cards" is another great song.Love you guys!!! Thanks for the reaction. I'm heading over to Patreon now...Borahae 💜💜💜
Can't wait to see you two dig into their solo stuff one day to see every member particularities. As for RM i have no enough words to express how much i love his solo stuffs omg
N.O is one of my favorite comebacks. Also love love love Attack on Bangtan. This whole album is one of their best and ‘We On’ is in my top 10 for BTS songs. Oh you have the Cyphers also. Not enough hours in the day
Jordan you should totally react to "Monster" by rm. Its my fav of his solos and there is a line that stood out for me and to all armys. He talks about haters and he does an incredible job. Also please react to suga's solo AGUST D as AGUST D (suga backwords + deagu town) in his mixtape also called AGUST D (hahaha) luv u guys♡
I have a lot to say. Number 1, I appreciate how thoroughly you both go into understanding the songs. Number 2, no you are not alone in never seeing a Matrix movie. Number 3 the bias announcement had me cracking up. Never be worried about your bias! You can't go wrong honestly lol.
HAHA! I definitely feel ya Jordan when it to RM. He remains my bias wrecker to date...I cannot wait until you get to the rap line's cyphers 1-4. It is a treat for hip hop fans. Love your videos on here and patreon. Keep up the great work guys. Borahae!!!
First congrats on 80k guys!!!! Soo happy for u honestly. Second, I am so exited for this one. It has a very meaningful message for me. Songs like this ones make me feel like I am not the lost in the sistem, that the sistem is the one that doesnt have place for people like me. And that im not alone, that other people also feel pressured and that the sistem should have changed. But here we are.
22:50 I believe they’re in the heart & mind. When they consume what society instils in them, their heart & mind turns bloody. Turns red, warning sign, heated up, hurt and flaming. And at 16:06 after they’ve fought the guards and came down the stairs which indicates “let me go through this journey myself” and reached to the front, once again they said “Everybody say NO,” and the heart & mind TURNED WHITE! To me it shows liberation, calming down, freedom and honesty to oneself. Love that they always have layers of meanings & messages in sensory form including visuals, sound, literature, colors & emotions they’re showing. Also, Jungkook is rapping here too together with rapline. The part hits me the most indeed when Jungkook said “Dream is gone.. No time to breathe..” NGL i still get teary eyes imagining that’s what the youth feels. Amazing how this song still soooooo relevant in the society now especially in South Korea. You may need to watch Sky Castle (Kdrama) to understand how depressing the schooling system is currently in South Korea. Can’t imagine not being an ARMY if we are a thinker. Like your good selves brothers! Always enjoyed your reviews and conversations. Please do video conference with some ARMY to discuss some topics relating to BTS’ messages and society. Would be a great content. I am a mother of 2 small kids, this constantly reminds me to keep my kids’ learning & life experiences balance.
BTS literally played a very big role in my life ever since I have became an army ...they helped me to become a better person , they helped to fight with my anxiety, they helped me to raise my voice against society....and many more through their music , their videos , their vlogs . They are not just artists for army they our their best friend , their idol and moreover they are like their family..... BTS is changing the world , breaking all the norms , braking all the records.... And I am very happy to enjoy my BTS journey again with you guys.....💜💜💜 U guys are very amazing... keep going 🙃...and wish you all the best for your journey..💜💜
hi, i don’t know if you’re ever going to read this, but i’d like to share my story as well. I’m 15, pretty young, started following them even younger. I basically grew up with them since my sibling used to listen their music and share their content with me sometimes. It’s been almost 5 years now, they helped me back then, but they helped me even more now. When i was 11 searching for their content i didn’t really know english that well since it isn’t my first language, i think i learned more english watching their videos with eng subs than in school. But, recently (almost a year ago) i got diagnosed with cancer, it’s nothing that serious (it’s not deadly if treated quickly) but it completely destroyed my life. I lost my first year of high school, which i think is a pretty important part of life. The tumor was in my leg, i had to have a surgery to remove it, so you could guess that i can’t walk anymore, not yet at least. I had to go through almost 9 months of chemo therapy, which had a lot of impact in my life. I lost my hair, lost weight (14kg), was feeling sick everyday, a lot nausea and headaches and other symptoms like these. The cancer cells are no longer in my leg, and i’m free of chemo therapy (had my last cycle last week) but i still can’t walk, and won’t for at least another year. During this time i couldn’t meet up with anyone because i was too fragile (considering that covid was still going around a lot, i even got it and had to go through a cycle of chemo therapy while i had it) and i felt extremely lonely. So to keep me company i watched their videos again and again, even if i already watched them, like they were some friends that came to see me. I also have big problems with my phobia of the dark and anxiety, so sleeping at night is kinda difficult for me, you could say i have a slight insomnia. To sleep i listen to their music, or just listen to them talk. i don’t understand, but i feel less lonely and scared. They inspired me a lot, thanks to them i know the kind of person i want to be when i grow up, they showed me that there’s a reason i shouldn’t give up even in a situation like mine. And they thought me to love myself. If you ever read this, thank you, i hope the best for your journey. Keep showing them love, they truly deserve it💜
Max, you've gone through so much at such a young age. I'm so glad BTS is there for you, and us ARMY too. Keep striving for that future you envision, but know that *you are already beautiful and perfect.* 💜
I love your reactions and I love your way of being thanks for joining the Army and listening to BTS 💜 it's a shame I can't be on your patreon to see the reactions that are there but I'm sure they're as good as the ones on TH-cam, I hope that one day they will be uploaded here too, greetings 🤗
The moment jared said : RM is my bias, I smiled I'm so proud of him, he deserves all the love and respect from the whole world. Though V is my bias but I respect and adore RM so much he is the pillar of BTS.... Loved your reaction... 💜❤ Waiting for the next..... 🇮🇳❤
To me taking the pill they were given is how all youth are expected to take what adults tell them and give them, and obey, no questions asked. Do as you are told. But they break away and say no. 💜
Tae & Joon are my ult biases.. I'm an OT7, Namjoon is so inspiring. When Namjoon say something you feel it.. he is always right. He is so powerful. He has been through a lot. The respect I have for him is endless. Same with Taehyung. It's Taehyung's voice that introduce me to BTS. It's his song winter bear that changed my whole life. This song on is so underrated.they talk about a topic no one wanted to talk but as students all of us suffering. BTS is the best for a reason
Hey guys, love this reaction!! N.O is one of my favorite songs from this album. So to touch on the Matrix, even tho I saw it some 20 odd years ago, I never understood it lol. This song touches on the immense pressure young people experience in society to follow strict discipline to study and be successful in education and life in general. This is what makes BTS stand out, they talk about issues not usually found in music. Jordan, RM is also my bias, although V is who reeled me in, Suga is my bias wrecker. But regardless OT7! The hands in the background will also appear in later videos and yes, there are explanations on what they represent. Gonna go watch the extended video you guys put out today 🙂
I would love to watch more reactions but sadly I can't get access to petreon where I live. Wish you guys can just upload the petreon content on TH-cam too or somewhere where I can watch it. I jate that I can't watch that.
As a fellow early RM bias you should really listen to Joke, Do You, Monster, and Throw Away 😊. For sure you will enjoy and relate to alot of what he says! He is so intelligent and his wordplay is NEXT level! To be clear these are his solo works from his mixtape. Suga is a bias wrecker for me with his solo mixtape works such as People, The Last, Agust D, Give It To Me, and the Legendary track Daechwita! Don't even get me started on Jhope! 🤣 the rhythmic way he uses his flow is out of this world! I drove 6 and a half hours to see him perform at Lollapalooza and it was worth every second! Baseline, Blueside, Piece of Peace, Hansang, Airplane, and his entire Jack In The Box album (but especially Equal Sign and What If) all of these songs from all 3 of the rap line are in my everyday play list! The vocal line is a whole nother story 😂😂😂🤣🤣 not enough time or space to say everything I want to about these Men!
Loved this reaction of yours. Especially glad that you noticed the hands in the mv (spoiler alert), keep those hands in mind as they will be returning 😉 I think it’s such a gift how you spend so much time making these videos and interpreting the meaning of the music, lyrics and mv. I, as an ARMY, love what you do and am thankful for your love for BTS and ARMY. We are so glad you joined our community, another big welcome!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
not reading lyrics from doolset anymore on TH-cam is a bit frustrating, why all to Patreon? i can join, but i dont want because i dont have to paid for free things. i can understand if u guys started reacting to BON VOYAGE, for example, but its just music, i want see the full reaction of free stuff. ): I enjoy a lot the deep analysis.😭
This ended too soon. Never been happier that I joined a patreon. Only one I might add. And if no one has told you yet let me be the first. You 2 serve a great purpose in my life. For nearly 8yrs I’ve turned on and turned up BTS to motivate my way up out of some truly trying times. Lately, I find myself doing the same thing with your reaction videos. Right now I need more, so this is me headed over to the patreon. See you there. Borahea 💜
Jimin did have solo parts. I think you're used to his high register that you don't recognize him his mid range vocals. Again, most times in MVs, when it's their part, even if they aren't mouthing the words, the camera is usually focused on the person singing that part.
One thing I learned from bts songs is be tough, have your own way, don't let anyone control your life. Imagine how haters throw stuff to them but instead of fighting back they put their anger in their lyrics. Btw, RM is my bias..you should check his first mixtape and his mono album too..
I can relate to RM so much. Having a financially supportive background doesn't guarantee that you have it easy in life. Everyone goes through their own journey and sadness, and most often than not the inner struggles of people who seemingly have "everything" in life gets overlooked. RM writes poetry from the heart and it touches everyone. He is sensitive enough to acknowledge what people go through, irrespective of their backgrounds. And that's something I want to emulate too. #RMBiasforever
Your reaction made me cried, for real. As human that live different difficulties, bts took the right step to speak through music, and always like that. The cultures of system are same, but in different way of categories its put. I respect bts for telling those stories since no everyone can do it. Language doesn't matter if we feel the sincerity by their acts. Thank you to put your thought and heart to enjoy music and learn the lyrics, as a fan of bts, it's really touched me.
Jordan, I’m a Joon bias as well! It’s crazy because it was the same for me when I became an ARMY. First it was Yoongi who I claimed as my bias but then Namjoon came and just did something to me. I feel something EVERY time he comes on a track. Not to mention his characteristics, intelligence, just him as a person. You will have no choice but to love him more as the journey goes. Now I’m a hyung line bias (meaning all 4 of the oldest members are my biases: Joon,Suga,Jhope, and Jin)
Ok first thing I want to say is huge congratulations on 80k!! So so well deserved! And second I love this song and your reaction was once again amazing! I’m heading to patron now To watch the extended version. BORAHAE! 💜💜💜💜
I can't get enough of your BTS reactions. I always look forward for your uploads. There's a lot of youtube reactions here about BTS but yours really stood out for me because i felt the genuine deed to learn who really BTS is. I consider BTS very personal to me because they helped me overcome my dark days by planting that purple heart in me through the comfort of their music which i listen to everyday. And seeing someone, like you, who appreciates BTS as much as we do makes my heart melts. Thank you so much for loving our home. We truly appreciate you both. Love you! From Philippines. 💜💜
Although I'm not Korean but being an Asian I can relate to the problems the students were experiencing. Academic achievements always weigh a lot in Asian society. I respect BTS so much for bringing the issues to people's attention in this song. By the way, you're not the only two in the world who has never seen a Matrix movie. I have not seen any Matrix or Star Wars movie.
I love all 7 of them but Yoongi and Jimin are my biases. I started liking rap thanks to Yoongi and his song Daechwita. Definitely can't wait until you guys get to his solo stuff! And Jimin is... God, he's an angel and his voice is so soothing to me. I could listen to it all day. Jimin was actually my first bias because the funny thing is, at first I thought Yoongi was a bit intimidating XD but when I learned more about him, he quickly became my bias as well. The rest are all bias wreckers for me.
Omg does that mean chapter 3 of rise of bangtan’s coming soon too? I’m super excited for you guys to get back into the series ☺️💜 also, NO is easily one of my top face bangtan songs. That song is so powerful.
Enjoyed your reaction!!! Thank you for reacting!!! Congratulations by the way!!! I was a little sad the the lyrics where moved to Pateron but that is okay it was still a wonderful reaction. Personally I relate to Suga, Jhope, and Jin the most however I love them all. Idk I just don’t want to say that I have a bias. Idk I just don’t like saying this person is my favorite because every song, moment, voice, etc. it changes in the moment. To each their own though. I have no problem if you do… Personally I love the lyrics talking about “if money, big car/big house will bring you happiness?“ Honestly in the day and age I feel people think these bring happiness. I just don’t think that is true. I think that they might be temporary happiness or comfort but not life time happiness. It also depends on the way we live our live if we will be happy (also how we view the world too). Another lyrics that I loved was when Suga is questioning why the world teaches us to step on one another and bad competition. It is interesting because in other companies from what I have learned it is that when they are trainees their is tons of competition and people trying to beat one another basically without helping others (stepping on each other to get where you want to be). While some people work better different ways I find it interesting that when BTS where trainees, RM encouraged everyone to help one another and grow together. I think this might actually have a big part of how BTS treat each other, their relationship with each other, and how they got to where they are today. Yes they all work hard and do their best and try and do their part. However all the members help each other and encourage one another along the way. For instance Jhope wasn’t forced into become like the “dance leader/teacher”. However Jhope stepped up and took his role to make BTS the best it can be. Same goes with the other members growing into their roles in the group. Sorry I am rambling. What I am trying to say is that we should encourage one another, be helpful, and be an example so that others can grow as well. Not only will it make you happy but would bring everyone up, instead of being in a world where we are “stepping on one another” and not caring about others failures. Idk hopefully this made sense… Once again thanks for sharing and reacting!!! P.S. I believe most ARMY just called this song NO. However it doesn’t really matter if you say N.O. I feel it is like their song Outro: Tear. It could be called tear (like ripping a paper) or tear (like being sad and crying 😢). Edit: I forgot to mention I have never seen the Matrix so I am with you guys on that.
Hi, I am back. Good reaction, ty. The names of the albums are cute and catchy for the youth. Their target audience were adolescents remember. They were not aware that their songs would speak to all ages. I feel like BTS started a conversation with ppl and they have been talking to us for 3 albums straight about the same topic. It's mindboggling but so cool. So glad u liked this. I love this song. It's so catchy. Adore the MV too. BTS always speaks the truth. Hugs. Later's. -NY USA 2019 Army💟 Cheyenne said on 12/2021 Just like a few people already mentioned but BTS and their albums basically grew along with the members. As you know, the members were extremely young when they first debuted and most of them were still in school and kids. Their first three albums heavily focused on the school education system, childish innocent teenage love, and struggles that the youth have to go through because the boys have experienced that sort of thing themselves. They wanted to relate and protect the youth. Once you go through more of the albums you'll notice the older they get, the more mature the themes will get and so will the messages.
I'm not Korean but I'm an Asian so these lyrics touch me as I'm going through the same. I just completed my 12th grade so the past whole year was spent studying, anything other than studying was considered as a time waste. My parents forcing me to take the "safe zone" so that I can have a job in the future but not letting me do something that I like. The other line from the song that I resonate with is "this is the only hard time, endure it" I have been hearing this line since I was a child, they say endure it now the rest will be easy but in reality it isn't easy. By enduring all that time I wasted my whole life, I regret not having fun.
The big hand statue (or u called finger) is a hand of people who play marionette puppet or puppeteer's hand (it also appeared on fake love). It's a symbolism when we get controlled by others like a doll, just like how marionette doll (because we lives in someone's dream, we do what they like and become someone that they want us to be). That why BTS asked us to say no, stop living in other's dream. Stop to get controlled like a puppet. Live ur own dream.
No More Dream was BTS asking the world "what's your dream" because around the time you're a teenager there can be a lot of pressure on you and that dream could very easily get lost. In N.O they're pretty much indirectly asking "are you happy" and empowering teenagers to stand up for their happiness instead of getting stuck inside a dream that society or even their parents have for them. RM in particular really wanted to pursue music his parents wanted him to study, get good grades, so much that they destroyed or got rid of his music equipment. He managed to become the leader of BTS and one of the smartest students in his class and the top 1% of the country. Idol agencies like to recruit their trainees at a young age and still expect them to attend school. Did you notice that they rarely smiled in this video? To me this setting looks like a classroom with a teacher who just wants them to stay out and live out a dream that was chosen for them not one they chose for themselves. I think the pill may have given them a glimpse of an alternat reality of what could happen if they stood up for themselves or if they didn't. The song Jordan was thinking of was Mirrors by Justin Timberlake, at least that's what it sounded like to me.
RM already professional at that time. He is the one stand for BTS strong. I am 65 years old. Since that we had so much school work and parent push us study even vacation time. As Korean kids life is all about it. That’s why BTS wrote this song for it.
You should watch the Comeback Trailer for O!RUL8,2? Not only is the dance awesome but it gives you the vibe of what the album is about, which is a little redundant now that you already saw N.O but still a fun video to watch. The teasers are clips from the MVs so you don't really need to watch those but the trailers are different and sometimes they're their own songs, like how "Singularity" was technically a Comeback Trailer video but there is a full version of the song on the album. If you go to HYBE's TH-cam channel, under playlists there is a BTS playlist with all their releases in chronological order. Keep up the good work guys, "You nice, keep going!" - Jimin 💜
The title of episode 3 House of Cards is a beautiful song by the vocal line. One of BTS classic and my favourite vocal line song. You guys could put that in the list for future reactions. It really showcase the vocal line talent. 💜
There are plenty of solo songs of each member, you need to react to JUNGKOOK MY TIME LIVE PERFORMANCE JIMIN SERENDIPITY LIVE JIN EPIPHANY LIVE V SINGULARITY LIVE. I don’t know if you read comments, but I just wanna say please react to live performances too
can u add the lyrics? a lot of people skip the lyrics of these songs, and more "MY TIME", that its not just Jungkook in black and red outfit, are his feelings and his story in the song. And is represented in the live perfomance, the being "mad" in his expressions and movements are part of the meaning (the frustration, or the feeling of cant go back in time and doing something). ):
hey guys I love your channel if you want to hear JIMIN'S SOLO please check out Filter,Serendipity,Lie ,friends,Promise and With You sure you will love and enjoy his beautiful and unique tone , he always a cherry on top of all the BtS Songs and if you want to learn more about Jimin's personality please check out a channel called TheJiminVideos you will know everything about his awesome personality.He is shamble,respectful,loving, caring and the most empathetic of them all thank you so much for loving and respecting all the boys and their hardworking. I personally love Jimin because of his story from the beginning he didn't have it easy at all🙏🙏🙏🙏
I love your commentary about the 'supersonic shield'... using music to protect eachother & fight for eachother.. 🔥🔥 and it's not just within the bangtan found family, but among BTS & army too. 💜
I love that you guys are doing so many reactions but at the same time not all of us have the money to pay for patreon (I think that’s how you spell it) so my question is will you ever post the other videos you guys made on TH-cam? Btw like I said love you guys and your reaction, there one of the best! Saranghae 💜
N.O is a powerfull message for youth, specially in South Korea due to their education system, and the high coast of pressure and mental health that come with , as the Rise of Bangtan chap 3 will explain to you. But it' s valuable everywhere for young people who feel pressured and " captured in others dreams". I'm not young anymore since decades, and my country (France) is very "cool" with education (maybe because our system is free of charge, even in university ? you can try, and failed, eventually try again, without ruined financially your entire life or your parents !! ) but still, this song is relatable, because I was, as a kid and a young student, somehow trapped in my parents/family dreams. And it was not a easy thing to say "No" to those who loved me and want the best for me. Since Day 1, BTS speak for his generation, and fight against prejudices, so bravely. A lot of their early songs talk about social issues/economical or political injustices (No more dream; NO, Spine breakers; Ugh; Dope, Bepsae, Am I wrong...) . But they also talk about their own struggles and inner thoughts, doubts and failures. Their discography is meaningful, like a mementum of their growth. Threw their music and lyrics, they transcended their personal storylife and struggles, and made them universal, relatable for everybody, sharing powerful social and personnal messages. It goes far beyond the music, they touched people heart and give them hope. And that's also why Army is more than a fandom, and even a community, but quite a social mouvment triying actively to make this world a better place. Side note : when RM sing "In seoul to the SKY" SKY is an acronym for the three most prestigious universities in South Korea - Seoul University, Korea University and Yonsei University.
Love this song. The strings along with the rap line really make the heart race - its tense but also 'aggitating' which perfectly motivates the listener. If you listen more to the background you can hear quite a lot of Jimin making vocal sounds, they effect that release of pent up frustration. Really underrated song
As a Korean...I looked back why this song couldnt be more popular as much as it deserves....i think it has too heavy topic to digest to us. They touched something we faced but didnt want to mention in our society because we even dont know the solution of that matter. BTS is brave and from the begining, they are not just a pretty singing idol.
I mean The Big3 was dominant that time, but atleast now armys are streaming old songs too.
nods
@@rikhmjustsomeguywithmousta4971 yes
I am Arabic Muslim girl and when I fell in this rabbit hole a month ago I wondered!! How Korean react to their art !! They sending a power message that reshape a whole generation!!! All their song bapsiea , spine breaker , no , no more dreams , spring day.and black swan..they make art ..with a wonderful language!! How Korean not seeing that and give them all that hardship issue !! The are making a history!! Why not appreciate from their own people!! That break my heart ..specially when they using their own culture and spread it to the world !
yes sorry to say but some people in korea thinks that bts is overrated . but dude they deserve everything . specially korean media they never shows bts acheivments that much they are kinda ignoring bts . specially when i heard korean native speak about that bts should go for miliatry service i'm not saying they shoudn't its your country's matter i wont say anything but . i didn't like they way they were saying . because they not only helping to expand korean culture but also contributing a lot in korean gdp . today everyone knows korea just because of them and thats the sad realty but some people just dont wont to recognize what they did for them and what they are doing . but i'm glad they have a pretty much army population in korea too who stan bts . (no offence)💜
I'm not a Korean but I am Asian and I was friends with many Koreans, when this song came out it was incredibly brave and quite shocking thay BTS released this, especially only 3 months after debut as it dealt with a very big social problem that Korea (and many other places) have. Anyway, my friends said that the lyrics really touched them because it was like someone else had suddenly spoken out about the problems they are having and that most students were feeling or facing. It just goes to show that BTS's lyrics have always resonated with so many people because they are true to themselves. 💜
yeah
Yeah thats right..
when they sing the lyrics "in Seoul to the SKY", SKY refers to the 3 top universities in seoul. S stands for Seoul National University, K for Korea University and Y for Yonsei University. the abbreviation SKY is very commonly used in South Korea when refering to these schools.
Oh, so it's like how most of the top universities in US are referred to collectively as Ivy League Schools?
like Oxbridge (Oxford and Cambridge) in the UK
@@thatfilmydesaikid yes
That's clever never knew it
Wow! Enlightening, song hits harder knowing this
Although I’m OT7, the rapline holds a special place in my heart. Here’s how I would describe them: RM has this big commanding voice that demands respect. Even when he goes soft, he sounds like a father comforting his child. J-hope brings a very upbeat energy to his rap with an almost rhythmic singing tone. Makes you happy just listening and looking at him. Suga’s flow and cadence are very poetic. There’s a rawness of emotion in his voice that even if you don’t understand what he’s saying, you can feel it. I like to think RM represents the brain, J-hope the heart and Suga the soul of a song.
Very well said!! Totally agree 👍
You described them perfectly. 😁
I love how you portray them💜
@@Jenncg05 thank you 💜
Well said
RM is my bias and part of the reason is because how powerful he is. He has been through so much at a young age as a member and leader. He has struggled with self image and understanding and loving himself in a way that is so heartbreaking and yet relatable. I think I saw an interview where he changed the questions when he translated them to avoid distressing the other members. I cannot imagine the mental burden on the all over the last few years but especially RM. And just wait until you get to the UN speech! That cemented him as my bias. Love all 7 but he has a special place in my heart.
They watched the UN speech already and the video of the UN speech is in their Patreon.
RM is my bias too, i'm love so much 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🇧🇷
@@tinarangel34 same here... Love my RM/ Kim Namjoon so much...
💜💜💜
True true I feel the same
He is my bias as well. Jin even said that RM is BTS itself in Bangtan Grammy’s and Suga even give a shoutout that without RM it is unlikely they will hit it big in US (things change dramatically after they won BBMA). I watched hip hop critics said if you truly understand hip hop (and remove the language barrier) then you will know that RM is hip hop in a person. His lyrics and production skills are insane, 6/10 songs he wrote are ranked at top 10 Billboard charts.
53 y.o. Texan here - RM was my early bias when I first found BTS...but eventually every other member's personalities, talents, and quirks created their own special places in my heart and now I can only be OT7 💜
So so true. The more that I see of them, they one by one came on my bias list.
Same, i'm a college student and a book lover. I first saw RM in Jack Edwards' YT channel, read Joon's recommendations (Almond, and Orwell's 1984) through Jack and fell in love with the books and with him. I actually read every book that RM had read, love him first, before I get to love his members. It was my gateway to bts, and i'm grateful I had found all 7. love them so much
Imagine BTS as a building. What do we need to enter a building? A door. A door has to be tall, spacious, and sturdy, at the same time painted in beautiful or comforting colors, with intricate designs on the surface and a complex "personality". A door has to have that vibe - inviting, attractive, mysterious even, but also making you know you will be embraced and welcomed if you step inside the building.
This has to be the most awkward comparison and compliment anyone has given to RM, yet I hope I illustrated my point well.
@@violetastoykova-jakobson9278 I think you nailed it!
@@B16pal Thank you. I don't necessarily consciously try to sound a certain way, the words simply flow through me. Any kind of talent humbles us when we realize we can't completely control it from the outside - it shapes as as much as we change the world around us using it.
I just know Jordan will go insane listening to rap line solo songs especially rm's "monster" and "joke" since he may be your bias, and after listen to this songs he will definitely be!
Personally my favorites on RM’s first mixtape is 1. Do You 2. Awake 3. Monster or Joke 4. Monster or Joke…
Just my opinion though. However his lyrics are so good on his first mixtape!
Joke…I can watch that video over and over. RM is my bias wrecker, and he almost wins sometimes. But it’s always been Jimin for me, right from the start.
@@lorismith5195 namjoon is also my bias wrecker! i think at the end of the day it's everyone's hahaha but yeah for me, it's always been hoseok, yoongi and jimin too (i'm a three biases 😆😆)
@@amberpearce710 "do you" SURE! this song is crazy, i also love persona! the lyrics of this songs really do touch me
I was going to suggest Jokw and the Cyphers too. They have no idea wh a t they are in for! OT7 💜×7
Stands for No Offense. N.O. O RU L8 2 is one of my fav BTS Albums. Heavy Rap, R&B and Hip Hop. It lives in my CD player in my car. OG, Old Skool BTS hold a special place in my heart❤️. So eager, so raw, so hungry and hard working.💜💜💜💜💜💜
For new discovering ARMYs, it's okay to change biases from time to time. Especially when you watch their shows. For instance, in Run BTS, you'll see the funny side of Jin & Jimin. In Bon Voyage, the baby qualities of Jungkookie. In The Soop ever caring SUGA & Hobi, etc. Each member is unique & likable. 💜
House of Cards is a vocal line BTS track. Another of my favs and it makes me imagine a old smoky jazz club. The live is soooooo good. The mood of the stage was perfect!
Yesss! They will love House if cards!
Yes they will love House of Card!!!! I will be right up Jared alley.
i'm so excited. honestly, this song has one of the most unterrated bts performaces ever in my opinion. they performed it on mama2019 and the swag was so present. the "we roll, we roll" part is perfect. I love how good it sounds and this part has my fav part in the choreo. may look simple but it's too cool. i love how it looked with their fits in the mama2019 performance (they also performed bulletproof pt.2 there) so maybe check that one out.
That was iconic
They had a tiny accident in Mama 2019 for NO, but it wasn’t noticeable.
I honestly love the dance break and the end of this song!!! I love the verses. However the chorus or the “we roll, we roll” part for me just seems off…idk just my opinion. However I love how BTS where speaking up since the beginning and I think this message is really good. As for lyrics this song is very underrated and the ending choreography too. (In my opinion)
@@amberpearce710 omg really? i liked the part, in particular, the dance they did there. in the performance i loved how the camera filmed tae from a lower angle which made the move look even more swaggy since it put emphasize on the legs that moved forward while doing body waves. i loved it. bts footwork will never diappoint
@@PeyloBeauty I pay more attention to the how the song sounds and the lyrics when listening to songs. I do watch dance practices for the dances. Idk I do this because I won’t always be watching the music video when listening to the song so I prefer to listen to the song to see if I like how it sounds combined with the lyric. To each their own though.
BTS choreography and footwork is amazing.
This song is iconic and was so ahead of its time. I think that's why it was so underrated even though the song is one that means quite a lot to 2013-2014 ARMYs. On the year of its release, there were not many artists or musicians who were so vocal or brave enough to touch this kind of topics (basically about anything that talks about changing the system) because politics in SK were so different then. I hope you'll get to react to their mama2019 performance because they performed this song again after a long time. oh, and the boys usually pronounce the song as "N.O"
RM takes the most "bullets" since he's the leader. You hear it when he raps.
After they consume the red pill, I interpreted the next scene sequence as traveling through the brain synapses, because now they are 'awakening' from society's rules and expectations.
Your videos always make my day.
You nice, keep going!
Guys you can always check to see if there is an explanation/theory on some of their songs which can be really helpful because if you’re not Korean you might not get cultural references. I found these explanation videos very helpful. BTS said this was about the very strict educational system in Korea.
THEEEEE ICONIC N.O!!!!!😭 absolutely love the message of this song and the music video is really cool. The choreography is amazing, as always. Just one of our favourite classics here in our Bora land 💜
I screamed! Yes!
V is my bias too. his voice and his songs gave me a second life.
Well I'm a little bit sad cuz I'm not able to join the patreon with u guys , and watching u reading the lyrics is one of my fav things on your channel 💔but it's fine💜
They are so close and supportive of each other. Jhope's Lollapolza concert and his vlive after it.
Great decision: 1 bias each year, still difficult tho, I can fall in love with 3 of them in the same Run bts episode. (But my eyes and all my heart always come back to Jimin)
2:50 the title of each rise of bangtan chapters were all bts' songs and it somehow describes the theme of that chapter.. it doesn't necessarily means that those songs are part of that particular era (e.g. for chapter 3, the title is house of cards but this song is the outro of their hyyh pt.2 album and a full length version on their hyyh: young forever album. it wasn't part of the era which chapter 3 covered but house of cards describes the situation of the group during that era when they released the o!rul8,2? album). hope my explanation made sense!!
It made perfect sense. Thanks for telling them that. 💜🤗
The song that you're referring to is "Mirror" by Justin Timberlake. I've seen the Netflix special Black Mirror as well, and you're right, it does remind me of that. You are absolutely right, BTS are fighting against society in this video...whether it be parents, teachers, bosses whatever. I love your videos!!! BTW I knew RM was your bias and I must tell you he only gets better with age. "House of Cards" is another great song.Love you guys!!! Thanks for the reaction. I'm heading over to Patreon now...Borahae 💜💜💜
If you want hear a solo from jimin i recommend Lie (but every solo jimin does is good ngl)
Can't wait to see you two dig into their solo stuff one day to see every member particularities. As for RM i have no enough words to express how much i love his solo stuffs omg
N.O is one of my favorite comebacks. Also love love love Attack on Bangtan. This whole album is one of their best and ‘We On’ is in my top 10 for BTS songs. Oh you have the Cyphers also. Not enough hours in the day
I love this song...it was such a *bold* move for such a recently debuted group from such a small company.
Jordan you should totally react to "Monster" by rm. Its my fav of his solos and there is a line that stood out for me and to all armys. He talks about haters and he does an incredible job. Also please react to suga's solo AGUST D as AGUST D (suga backwords + deagu town) in his mixtape also called AGUST D (hahaha) luv u guys♡
I have a lot to say. Number 1, I appreciate how thoroughly you both go into understanding the songs. Number 2, no you are not alone in never seeing a Matrix movie. Number 3 the bias announcement had me cracking up. Never be worried about your bias! You can't go wrong honestly lol.
HAHA! I definitely feel ya Jordan when it to RM. He remains my bias wrecker to date...I cannot wait until you get to the rap line's cyphers 1-4. It is a treat for hip hop fans. Love your videos on here and patreon. Keep up the great work guys. Borahae!!!
First congrats on 80k guys!!!! Soo happy for u honestly. Second, I am so exited for this one. It has a very meaningful message for me. Songs like this ones make me feel like I am not the lost in the sistem, that the sistem is the one that doesnt have place for people like me. And that im not alone, that other people also feel pressured and that the sistem should have changed. But here we are.
I love BTS so much💜💜💜
BTS loves you. And we love you 💜
Finally, Now it’s my habit to check my notifications every single day to see if you post anything Huh I’m happy.
22:50 I believe they’re in the heart & mind. When they consume what society instils in them, their heart & mind turns bloody. Turns red, warning sign, heated up, hurt and flaming. And at 16:06 after they’ve fought the guards and came down the stairs which indicates “let me go through this journey myself” and reached to the front, once again they said “Everybody say NO,” and the heart & mind TURNED WHITE! To me it shows liberation, calming down, freedom and honesty to oneself. Love that they always have layers of meanings & messages in sensory form including visuals, sound, literature, colors & emotions they’re showing.
Also, Jungkook is rapping here too together with rapline. The part hits me the most indeed when Jungkook said “Dream is gone.. No time to breathe..” NGL i still get teary eyes imagining that’s what the youth feels. Amazing how this song still soooooo relevant in the society now especially in South Korea. You may need to watch Sky Castle (Kdrama) to understand how depressing the schooling system is currently in South Korea.
Can’t imagine not being an ARMY if we are a thinker. Like your good selves brothers! Always enjoyed your reviews and conversations. Please do video conference with some ARMY to discuss some topics relating to BTS’ messages and society. Would be a great content. I am a mother of 2 small kids, this constantly reminds me to keep my kids’ learning & life experiences balance.
BTS is the voice of the voiceless.
I hope you post patreon videos here on youtube
I'm waiting for "No" reaction.Everyday i came & check.thankyou Borahae 💜
They think about the kids who fail their parents expectations and fail then kill themselves..it hart breaking ..
BTS literally played a very big role in my life ever since I have became an army ...they helped me to become a better person , they helped to fight with my anxiety, they helped me to raise my voice against society....and many more through their music , their videos , their vlogs . They are not just artists for army they our their best friend , their idol and moreover they are like their family..... BTS is changing the world , breaking all the norms , braking all the records.... And I am very happy to enjoy my BTS journey again with you guys.....💜💜💜
U guys are very amazing... keep going 🙃...and wish you all the best for your journey..💜💜
hi, i don’t know if you’re ever going to read this, but i’d like to share my story as well. I’m 15, pretty young, started following them even younger. I basically grew up with them since my sibling used to listen their music and share their content with me sometimes. It’s been almost 5 years now, they helped me back then, but they helped me even more now. When i was 11 searching for their content i didn’t really know english that well since it isn’t my first language, i think i learned more english watching their videos with eng subs than in school. But, recently (almost a year ago) i got diagnosed with cancer, it’s nothing that serious (it’s not deadly if treated quickly) but it completely destroyed my life. I lost my first year of high school, which i think is a pretty important part of life. The tumor was in my leg, i had to have a surgery to remove it, so you could guess that i can’t walk anymore, not yet at least. I had to go through almost 9 months of chemo therapy, which had a lot of impact in my life. I lost my hair, lost weight (14kg), was feeling sick everyday, a lot nausea and headaches and other symptoms like these. The cancer cells are no longer in my leg, and i’m free of chemo therapy (had my last cycle last week) but i still can’t walk, and won’t for at least another year. During this time i couldn’t meet up with anyone because i was too fragile (considering that covid was still going around a lot, i even got it and had to go through a cycle of chemo therapy while i had it) and i felt extremely lonely. So to keep me company i watched their videos again and again, even if i already watched them, like they were some friends that came to see me. I also have big problems with my phobia of the dark and anxiety, so sleeping at night is kinda difficult for me, you could say i have a slight insomnia. To sleep i listen to their music, or just listen to them talk. i don’t understand, but i feel less lonely and scared. They inspired me a lot, thanks to them i know the kind of person i want to be when i grow up, they showed me that there’s a reason i shouldn’t give up even in a situation like mine. And they thought me to love myself.
If you ever read this, thank you, i hope the best for your journey. Keep showing them love, they truly deserve it💜
You're really strong to have made thru that. I'm proud of u, we love u. Hoping u can get back to normal life asap. 💜Borahae
Max, you've gone through so much at such a young age. I'm so glad BTS is there for you, and us ARMY too. Keep striving for that future you envision, but know that *you are already beautiful and perfect.* 💜

Max darling, hope you keep the good attitude. Fighting !! I am 56 and go to sleep every night listening to a BTS playlist I made. Borahae! 💜
I hope for the dance practice and live performance reaction too😇😇
I love your reactions and I love your way of being thanks for joining the Army and listening to BTS 💜 it's a shame I can't be on your patreon to see the reactions that are there but I'm sure they're as good as the ones on TH-cam, I hope that one day they will be uploaded here too, greetings 🤗
The dance practice for this is amazing. Would love to see a reaction to it in the future♡♡
The moment jared said : RM is my bias, I smiled I'm so proud of him, he deserves all the love and respect from the whole world. Though V is my bias but I respect and adore RM so much he is the pillar of BTS....
Loved your reaction... 💜❤
Waiting for the next..... 🇮🇳❤
13:27 V & RM : cool
Watch out for wreckers
One cool scene is V on a boat 🛶 and RM on the side in the Soop
To me taking the pill they were given is how all youth are expected to take what adults tell them and give them, and obey, no questions asked. Do as you are told. But they break away and say no. 💜
Tae & Joon are my ult biases.. I'm an OT7, Namjoon is so inspiring. When Namjoon say something you feel it.. he is always right. He is so powerful. He has been through a lot. The respect I have for him is endless.
Same with Taehyung. It's Taehyung's voice that introduce me to BTS. It's his song winter bear that changed my whole life.
This song on is so underrated.they talk about a topic no one wanted to talk but as students all of us suffering.
BTS is the best for a reason
Hey guys, love this reaction!! N.O is one of my favorite songs from this album. So to touch on the Matrix, even tho I saw it some 20 odd years ago, I never understood it lol.
This song touches on the immense pressure young people experience in society to follow strict discipline to study and be successful in education and life in general. This is what makes BTS stand out, they talk about issues not usually found in music.
Jordan, RM is also my bias, although V is who reeled me in, Suga is my bias wrecker. But regardless OT7!
The hands in the background will also appear in later videos and yes, there are explanations on what they represent.
Gonna go watch the extended video you guys put out today 🙂
I'm really sad because I can't follow you on Patreon and I have a problem I love your reactions on bts💔
I would love to watch more reactions but sadly I can't get access to petreon where I live. Wish you guys can just upload the petreon content on TH-cam too or somewhere where I can watch it. I jate that I can't watch that.
Same 😩
Where are you come from?
As a fellow early RM bias you should really listen to Joke, Do You, Monster, and Throw Away 😊. For sure you will enjoy and relate to alot of what he says! He is so intelligent and his wordplay is NEXT level! To be clear these are his solo works from his mixtape. Suga is a bias wrecker for me with his solo mixtape works such as People, The Last, Agust D, Give It To Me, and the Legendary track Daechwita! Don't even get me started on Jhope! 🤣 the rhythmic way he uses his flow is out of this world! I drove 6 and a half hours to see him perform at Lollapalooza and it was worth every second! Baseline, Blueside, Piece of Peace, Hansang, Airplane, and his entire Jack In The Box album (but especially Equal Sign and What If) all of these songs from all 3 of the rap line are in my everyday play list! The vocal line is a whole nother story 😂😂😂🤣🤣 not enough time or space to say everything I want to about these Men!
Loved this reaction of yours. Especially glad that you noticed the hands in the mv (spoiler alert), keep those hands in mind as they will be returning 😉
I think it’s such a gift how you spend so much time making these videos and interpreting the meaning of the music, lyrics and mv. I, as an ARMY, love what you do and am thankful for your love for BTS and ARMY. We are so glad you joined our community, another big welcome!!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Happy birthday dear Jared and Jordan 💐! Stay healthy and happy! Borahae💜💜💜
not reading lyrics from doolset anymore on TH-cam is a bit frustrating, why all to Patreon? i can join, but i dont want because i dont have to paid for free things. i can understand if u guys started reacting to BON VOYAGE, for example, but its just music, i want see the full reaction of free stuff. ):
I enjoy a lot the deep analysis.😭
This ended too soon. Never been happier that I joined a patreon. Only one I might add. And if no one has told you yet let me be the first. You 2 serve a great purpose in my life. For nearly 8yrs I’ve turned on and turned up BTS to motivate my way up out of some truly trying times. Lately, I find myself doing the same thing with your reaction videos. Right now I need more, so this is me headed over to the patreon. See you there. Borahea 💜
Jimin did have solo parts. I think you're used to his high register that you don't recognize him his mid range vocals. Again, most times in MVs, when it's their part, even if they aren't mouthing the words, the camera is usually focused on the person singing that part.
i was about to say the same thing... they just didn't recognize Jimin's lower register voice and growling.
One thing I learned from bts songs is be tough, have your own way, don't let anyone control your life. Imagine how haters throw stuff to them but instead of fighting back they put their anger in their lyrics. Btw, RM is my bias..you should check his first mixtape and his mono album too..
I can relate to RM so much. Having a financially supportive background doesn't guarantee that you have it easy in life. Everyone goes through their own journey and sadness, and most often than not the inner struggles of people who seemingly have "everything" in life gets overlooked. RM writes poetry from the heart and it touches everyone. He is sensitive enough to acknowledge what people go through, irrespective of their backgrounds. And that's something I want to emulate too. #RMBiasforever
I am so happy that ya'll did this. RM had said, in an interview, that it is N.O. for no offense. Thank you for your reactions.
This music video still gives me the chills
Your reaction made me cried, for real. As human that live different difficulties, bts took the right step to speak through music, and always like that. The cultures of system are same, but in different way of categories its put. I respect bts for telling those stories since no everyone can do it. Language doesn't matter if we feel the sincerity by their acts. Thank you to put your thought and heart to enjoy music and learn the lyrics, as a fan of bts, it's really touched me.
Jordan, I’m a Joon bias as well! It’s crazy because it was the same for me when I became an ARMY. First it was Yoongi who I claimed as my bias but then Namjoon came and just did something to me. I feel something EVERY time he comes on a track. Not to mention his characteristics, intelligence, just him as a person. You will have no choice but to love him more as the journey goes. Now I’m a hyung line bias (meaning all 4 of the oldest members are my biases: Joon,Suga,Jhope, and Jin)
Ok first thing I want to say is huge congratulations on 80k!! So so well deserved! And second I love this song and your reaction was once again amazing! I’m heading to patron now To watch the extended version. BORAHAE! 💜💜💜💜
Your bias can change and you can have more than one. Jimin holds a special place in my heart, but I'm wrecked on the daily by the other six.
I can't get enough of your BTS reactions. I always look forward for your uploads. There's a lot of youtube reactions here about BTS but yours really stood out for me because i felt the genuine deed to learn who really BTS is. I consider BTS very personal to me because they helped me overcome my dark days by planting that purple heart in me through the comfort of their music which i listen to everyday. And seeing someone, like you, who appreciates BTS as much as we do makes my heart melts. Thank you so much for loving our home. We truly appreciate you both. Love you! From Philippines. 💜💜
RM said that N.O stands for No Offense.
Ah thank you Kesha!!
I love you guys! You always make my day, thank you for your reactions!
Honestly RM’s Stan’s are all intellectual and we love it 💜 it’s so easy to relate with the tannies
Although I'm not Korean but being an Asian I can relate to the problems the students were experiencing. Academic achievements always weigh a lot in Asian society. I respect BTS so much for bringing the issues to people's attention in this song.
By the way, you're not the only two in the world who has never seen a Matrix movie. I have not seen any Matrix or Star Wars movie.
I love hanging out with you guys even though I missed the live show.
I love all 7 of them but Yoongi and Jimin are my biases. I started liking rap thanks to Yoongi and his song Daechwita. Definitely can't wait until you guys get to his solo stuff! And Jimin is... God, he's an angel and his voice is so soothing to me. I could listen to it all day. Jimin was actually my first bias because the funny thing is, at first I thought Yoongi was a bit intimidating XD but when I learned more about him, he quickly became my bias as well. The rest are all bias wreckers for me.
One of my favs 💜
Omg does that mean chapter 3 of rise of bangtan’s coming soon too? I’m super excited for you guys to get back into the series ☺️💜 also, NO is easily one of my top face bangtan songs. That song is so powerful.
I love watching you guys. Thank you 💜💜
Thanks for watching!
I have never seem the Matrix either!!!! You are not alone!!
I feel like Suga is Jordan’s Bias and RM is his Bias Wrecker 😂😂💜
Enjoyed your reaction!!! Thank you for reacting!!! Congratulations by the way!!!
I was a little sad the the lyrics where moved to Pateron but that is okay it was still a wonderful reaction.
Personally I relate to Suga, Jhope, and Jin the most however I love them all. Idk I just don’t want to say that I have a bias. Idk I just don’t like saying this person is my favorite because every song, moment, voice, etc. it changes in the moment. To each their own though. I have no problem if you do…
Personally I love the lyrics talking about “if money, big car/big house will bring you happiness?“ Honestly in the day and age I feel people think these bring happiness. I just don’t think that is true. I think that they might be temporary happiness or comfort but not life time happiness. It also depends on the way we live our live if we will be happy (also how we view the world too).
Another lyrics that I loved was when Suga is questioning why the world teaches us to step on one another and bad competition. It is interesting because in other companies from what I have learned it is that when they are trainees their is tons of competition and people trying to beat one another basically without helping others (stepping on each other to get where you want to be). While some people work better different ways I find it interesting that when BTS where trainees, RM encouraged everyone to help one another and grow together. I think this might actually have a big part of how BTS treat each other, their relationship with each other, and how they got to where they are today. Yes they all work hard and do their best and try and do their part. However all the members help each other and encourage one another along the way. For instance Jhope wasn’t forced into become like the “dance leader/teacher”. However Jhope stepped up and took his role to make BTS the best it can be. Same goes with the other members growing into their roles in the group. Sorry I am rambling. What I am trying to say is that we should encourage one another, be helpful, and be an example so that others can grow as well. Not only will it make you happy but would bring everyone up, instead of being in a world where we are “stepping on one another” and not caring about others failures. Idk hopefully this made sense…
Once again thanks for sharing and reacting!!!
P.S. I believe most ARMY just called this song NO. However it doesn’t really matter if you say N.O. I feel it is like their song Outro: Tear. It could be called tear (like ripping a paper) or tear (like being sad and crying 😢).
Edit: I forgot to mention I have never seen the Matrix so I am with you guys on that.
Aww one of fave music and the most challenging era of our boys!!!
Hi, I am back. Good reaction, ty. The names of the albums are cute and catchy for the youth. Their target audience were adolescents remember. They were not aware that their songs would speak to all ages. I feel like BTS started a conversation with ppl and they have been talking to us for 3 albums straight about the same topic. It's mindboggling but so cool. So glad u liked this. I love this song. It's so catchy. Adore the MV too. BTS always speaks the truth. Hugs. Later's. -NY USA 2019 Army💟

Just like a few people already mentioned but BTS and their albums basically grew along with the members. As you know, the members were extremely young when they first debuted and most of them were still in school and kids. Their first three albums heavily focused on the school education system, childish innocent teenage love, and struggles that the youth have to go through because the boys have experienced that sort of thing themselves. They wanted to relate and protect the youth. Once you go through more of the albums you'll notice the older they get, the more mature the themes will get and so will the messages.
Esperando esta reacción una de mis canciones favoritas 👍👌🖑 thanks Jared and Jordan ❤ so beautiful guys .
you really need to listen to rm - joke. it's CRAZY. i think both of you will really enjoy it.
I'm not Korean but I'm an Asian so these lyrics touch me as I'm going through the same. I just completed my 12th grade so the past whole year was spent studying, anything other than studying was considered as a time waste. My parents forcing me to take the "safe zone" so that I can have a job in the future but not letting me do something that I like. The other line from the song that I resonate with is "this is the only hard time, endure it" I have been hearing this line since I was a child, they say endure it now the rest will be easy but in reality it isn't easy. By enduring all that time I wasted my whole life, I regret not having fun.
I recommend (lie) jimin's solo
Thank you so much for this video of BTS. I love your reaction channel.
The big hand statue (or u called finger) is a hand of people who play marionette puppet or puppeteer's hand (it also appeared on fake love). It's a symbolism when we get controlled by others like a doll, just like how marionette doll (because we lives in someone's dream, we do what they like and become someone that they want us to be). That why BTS asked us to say no, stop living in other's dream. Stop to get controlled like a puppet. Live ur own dream.
No More Dream was BTS asking the world "what's your dream" because around the time you're a teenager there can be a lot of pressure on you and that dream could very easily get lost. In N.O they're pretty much indirectly asking "are you happy" and empowering teenagers to stand up for their happiness instead of getting stuck inside a dream that society or even their parents have for them. RM in particular really wanted to pursue music his parents wanted him to study, get good grades, so much that they destroyed or got rid of his music equipment. He managed to become the leader of BTS and one of the smartest students in his class and the top 1% of the country. Idol agencies like to recruit their trainees at a young age and still expect them to attend school. Did you notice that they rarely smiled in this video? To me this setting looks like a classroom with a teacher who just wants them to stay out and live out a dream that was chosen for them not one they chose for themselves. I think the pill may have given them a glimpse of an alternat reality of what could happen if they stood up for themselves or if they didn't. The song Jordan was thinking of was Mirrors by Justin Timberlake, at least that's what it sounded like to me.
RM already professional at that time. He is the one stand for BTS strong. I am 65 years old. Since that we had so much school work and parent push us study even vacation time. As Korean kids life is all about it. That’s why BTS wrote this song for it.
i wish i could afford your patreon, but as i live in brazil its really difficult. i will certainly miss your lyric analysis
You should watch the Comeback Trailer for O!RUL8,2? Not only is the dance awesome but it gives you the vibe of what the album is about, which is a little redundant now that you already saw N.O but still a fun video to watch. The teasers are clips from the MVs so you don't really need to watch those but the trailers are different and sometimes they're their own songs, like how "Singularity" was technically a Comeback Trailer video but there is a full version of the song on the album. If you go to HYBE's TH-cam channel, under playlists there is a BTS playlist with all their releases in chronological order. Keep up the good work guys, "You nice, keep going!" - Jimin 💜
The title of episode 3 House of Cards is a beautiful song by the vocal line. One of BTS classic and my favourite vocal line song. You guys could put that in the list for future reactions. It really showcase the vocal line talent. 💜
There are plenty of solo songs of each member, you need to react to
JUNGKOOK MY TIME LIVE PERFORMANCE
JIMIN SERENDIPITY LIVE
JIN EPIPHANY LIVE
V SINGULARITY LIVE.
I don’t know if you read comments, but I just wanna say please react to live performances too
can u add the lyrics? a lot of people skip the lyrics of these songs, and more "MY TIME", that its not just Jungkook in black and red outfit, are his feelings and his story in the song. And is represented in the live perfomance, the being "mad" in his expressions and movements are part of the meaning (the frustration, or the feeling of cant go back in time and doing something). ):
And V with Stigma live 😌
hey guys I love your channel if you want to hear JIMIN'S SOLO please check out Filter,Serendipity,Lie ,friends,Promise and With You sure you will love and enjoy his beautiful and unique tone , he always a cherry on top of all the BtS Songs and if you want to learn more about Jimin's personality please check out a channel called TheJiminVideos you will know everything about his awesome personality.He is shamble,respectful,loving, caring and the most empathetic of them all thank you so much for loving and respecting all the boys and their hardworking. I personally love Jimin because of his story from the beginning he didn't have it easy at all🙏🙏🙏🙏
One of the best songs of BTS in liked most.
I love your commentary about the 'supersonic shield'... using music to protect eachother & fight for eachother.. 🔥🔥 and it's not just within the bangtan found family, but among BTS & army too. 💜
Those hands are simbolisme as "Parent's hand controling their kids"
I love that you guys are doing so many reactions but at the same time not all of us have the money to pay for patreon (I think that’s how you spell it) so my question is will you ever post the other videos you guys made on TH-cam? Btw like I said love you guys and your reaction, there one of the best! Saranghae 💜
EXCITED AS ALWAYS!
I'm waiting for you guys to react BTS - ON Kinetic Manifesto. Good luck. Thank you☺️
N.O is a powerfull message for youth, specially in South Korea due to their education system, and the high coast of pressure and mental health that come with , as the Rise of Bangtan chap 3 will explain to you. But it' s valuable everywhere for young people who feel pressured and " captured in others dreams". I'm not young anymore since decades, and my country (France) is very "cool" with education (maybe because our system is free of charge, even in university ? you can try, and failed, eventually try again, without ruined financially your entire life or your parents !! ) but still, this song is relatable, because I was, as a kid and a young student, somehow trapped in my parents/family dreams. And it was not a easy thing to say "No" to those who loved me and want the best for me. Since Day 1, BTS speak for his generation, and fight against prejudices, so bravely. A lot of their early songs talk about social issues/economical or political injustices (No more dream; NO, Spine breakers; Ugh; Dope, Bepsae, Am I wrong...) . But they also talk about their own struggles and inner thoughts, doubts and failures. Their discography is meaningful, like a mementum of their growth. Threw their music and lyrics, they transcended their personal storylife and struggles, and made them universal, relatable for everybody, sharing powerful social and personnal messages. It goes far beyond the music, they touched people heart and give them hope. And that's also why Army is more than a fandom, and even a community, but quite a social mouvment triying actively to make this world a better place.
Side note : when RM sing "In seoul to the SKY" SKY is an acronym for the three most prestigious universities in South Korea - Seoul University, Korea University and Yonsei University.
Love this song. The strings along with the rap line really make the heart race - its tense but also 'aggitating' which perfectly motivates the listener.
If you listen more to the background you can hear quite a lot of Jimin making vocal sounds, they effect that release of pent up frustration. Really underrated song
