Can I just say how much I love that your bias is Jin? I'm an OT7 through and through but there's something about Jin's personality and struggles and just the way he sees life that pulls me in, that I find so relatable.
There's a cover by Jin that is such a gem, it's called "Autumn Outside The Post Office". Melancholic with a beautiful harmonica instrumental. Jin was my 1st bias in BTS, although my ult is now Yoongi, Jin has a very special place in my heart, I will always be part of the "Jincult".
In the BU the flower petals represent the members of BTS. In this song Jin talks about how he will never be able to fly like the flower petals. This is because he has never thought that he was as naturally talented as the other members. He has spoken before about his fear of dragging the band down because he wasn’t at the other members level, and because of that he works harder and longer to try and catch up with them. In the song he talks about how even if he can’t fly he will run with his hand out to catch the petals so they will never fall to the ground, and in another part of the song he says that he will hold the six petals in his hands. Jungkook’s song on the Wings album, Begin is a song to the other members, but Jin’s song Awake is also a song about his love for the other members, even as he struggles with his own insecurities. The quote RM read at the beginning of the wings video was from the book Demian by Herman Hess, which their song Blood Sweat and Tears, also from the Wings album was based on. Also, Hobi was amazing yesterday! He did ARMY proud.
This comment almost made me cry because it's so fitting and true. Makes you love them more for their connections to the members and how much they care for each other.
your comment made me cry, I already knew the story behind the song but reading your comment I don't know why it made me so emotional, I started to imagine Jin's first months of training and all that must have suffered in silence , seeing that he was not up to the rest and being constantly scolded and still persevere because it was the path he chose, Jin has my greatest admiration
When they worked on awake they didn’t write it with the intention of it being how jin was feeling. Later RM realised it was exactly how Jin was feeling. I call Awake part 1 of Epiphany because in awake he thinks he will never be as good as the other members but he will keep running and trying. In Epiphany he has completely accepted himself as he is not so perfect but yet so beautiful. Thank you for this beautiful reaction I appreciate it!
I love the live performance, Jin sang with such vulnerability, I think it makes many of us Army cry watching him sing this. I even think he was emotional. I love his voice especially in the Japanese songs he is made to sing those. Funny you mentioned the veins in his neck when he belts out anything they appear , also when he gets annoyed and fast talk they appear its funny . Anyway Jin is amazing and a pure talent , it was just hidden , he didn't even know he could learn to sing and thanks to joining BTS he has developed into a phenomenal talent.
And to add to this what made me cry even more is the fact that this song was him thinking that he may not be as good as the other vocalists but he still will always give his all which I think isn’t true cuz he’s an amazing vocalist so it makes me emotional knowing that he used to think so little of himself😢
I'm so glad that there's another person who agrees that Jin's voice suits Japanese songs. Because I once put such comment and there's another person laughing at my comment. As if he/she disagree with it.
John, I've been watching your reactions for a while now and at some point I realise you were a Jin bias .. he is my ultimate bias .. I absolutely love Jin's story and his perseverance to be where he is right now .. also I love Epiphany but Awake, I just have a little more love for this song .. it literally encourages you to persevere to achieve your goals, no matter how much obstacles you encounter, just keep going .. love love love how you give us the whole experience of every song 🥰🥰🥰🥰💜💜💜💜and of course congratulations to Jhope for creating history for himself and BTS as a whole .. that Lollapalooza performance was epic 👏👏👏👏👏🥰🥰🥰💜💜💜💜💜💜 By the way Jin can play the piano and guitar .. Suga can play piano and guitar as well .. Jungkook can play the drums 👏👏👏
Shireen thank you so much for this! I totally agree with that message you get from this song and I relate to it so much, he has such a way with his lyrics, jin bias for sure!
"He's gold all the way thru!! That's freakin Jin!!" Aahhh I love that John, yeahhh tell them that's our bias!!! 😭 Waahhh I am sooo late for this I'm so sorry John!! 😭 I've been so busy and tired this week, and seriously this is what I needed today for comfort! So thank you so much for this!! When I saw this my whole body lit up!! 💜 This got me so emotional and relieved at the same time. This song is one of the most beautiful ever! And I love how you interpreted the lyrics, godddd so relatable! And it's one of the reasons why we all connect to Jinnie 🥺🥰💜 I am sooo proud of Jin's talents! Often not noticed, but he actually has one of the greatest singing and writing skills. He is such an awesome person, singer or not. He JINspired a lot of us truly with his words and his ways of perceiving things. He's such a gem 💎 That appreciation vid where Suga sings, that's when the time Jin and Suga exchanged songs to perform. It was so hilarious coz Jin has to rap Suga's song then Suga had to hit high notes in Jin's song. It's such an organic performance 💜 The Wings short film of Awake is actually the last. If you've noticed in the start, it already said #7. Awake So you, my friend, has just fallen to BU. Lol 😆 It's fine that you see it in this order. It'll all come together once you see the other solo songs of the members. When I got onto this, I don't have a guide of any sort. I just watched whatever. And you'll realize everything once you get to them, then you'll just say on the way "Ahhh so that's what it means!" hehe and I'm sure, with how comprehensive you are with things, you'll discover it on your self. It's what you call your journey 💜 Btw, yeah Hobi in lollapalooza is fire!!!!! Goosebumps the whole time!! 🔥 Sorry for the long as* comment!! I just missed writing to you.. again thank you, thank you for this reaction! Wishing Jin will see this one day 💜 More power to your channel John!!! Love youuu 🥰💜
The way you describe him had me in tears. Thats exactly how I see him, thats why he's my bias from start to forever. Hope u check out his song Abyss too, he wrote it during a difficult period and was able to share it to army through this song. Im so happy u appreciate him and most specially im so happy he's ur bias too.. 💜💜💜💜
:) for real that means so much thank you, I really appreciate him he is such an amazing musician and I love it! I for sure will check that song out :) Thank you for the suggestion!
You’re right, Jin can hit any high notes without straining. He was just adding emotions and dramatic effects to the performance. There is a performance that proves it: BTS-We Are Bulletproof: the Eternal (PTD On Stage- Seoul Day3) th-cam.com/video/2RDPkfsNgaM/w-d-xo.html , he was singing up to E5 without even straining a tiny bit. He’s insane!💜
jin is my bias wrecker. I love J-Hope. I'm so proud watch he perform at Lollapalooza. Please react "Jin's dance - by : All about BTS JIN" . love your reactions
Im in the middle of studying but I saw this and was like, I have to watch it- and i'm only halfway through and just absolutely a giddy, giggling mess because it feels SOOO good to see someone with the same thoughts and feelings as me when it comes to that ethereal amazing talent we call Seokjin- like I'm always stunned at just how powerful he is, with his emotions- his voice- his aura- everything! He's literally one of the most talented artists I've ever seen, I still am amazed at how humble he is when quite frankly he could take over the world if he wanted to- his voice saves lives and just sends chills through me and the messages and emotions and light he is able to convey. Just wow! I love your reactions and your words, and like I said im only halfway through so I need to finish the video but I must agree with you, they saw a beautiful being on the street and didn't realize just how much of a diamond they had in their hands- I cant wait to see the great lengths he will reach in the future- because not only will he touch the sky, he'll reach even further than that, I'm sure of it.
I absolutely love Jin. He is such a wonderful person. He is talented and has a great heart. I’m so excited for all of BTS. WAY TO GO J-HOPE!!!!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
First off, Jhope killed it! He did so well and I’m very proud of him! Also this song. Awake is an underrated song by Jin. Usually people always think of Epiphany, which is an amazing and beautiful song, but Awake is that hidden gem you know? His vocals here are insane and the live show for it is just immaculate! Also the Wings Short Films are heavy with BU content so don’t feel bad about not understanding them. They are one short film for each member and the names of the videos are tagged with their solo songs in the Wings album (which is why this one is named Awake for Jin’s film)
I totally agree, this seems to fly under the radar but its soooo beautiful and I love how open he is with his lyrics. Cant wait to watch more of the BU and maybe We'll do a full Wings reaction soon!
WWH never disappoints, he is such a show man. His voice is as sweet as he is. Thank you John for this reaction. To my sushine, Hobi aka JHope aka Hoseok I am so proud of all that you have a accomplish, it was awesome to see you ROCK the stage. BORAHAE and FREAKING TOODLES!!!
This is literally the song that I first heard that started my BTS journey. (You fell in the middle of the BU here btw…it’s the last video) the tears….adore this man. His genuine personality and quirkiness and beautiful voice are the trifecta 💜 I’d say I am a Jin/Jk equal bias…🤡💜 the oldest and youngest make me laugh the most!
Jin has a lot of confidence to be able to play both guitar and piano on stage when he’s quite new to playing. Jin doesn’t give himself enough credit. He’s a much deeper thinker than he thinks he is. His way of being positive about himself is inspiring. The BigHit recruiter found a gem in him. I’d really love you to react to V and Jin singing ‘It’s Definitely You’, their OST from Hwarang. There’s a video of them singing it th-cam.com/video/tt9nIyzN79Y/w-d-xo.html and a behind the scenes. th-cam.com/video/7JTzP5xQEa4/w-d-xo.html It’s a catchy song and their voices blend together so well.
this song is about jin's insecurities as an artist, he started off having no experience or background in music at all, differently from all the other members he had to start from zero, so he talks about how he feels that maybe he will never fly as high as the other six flowerpetals/members
I have been watching your videos for a while now. I love that you are a Jin bias. I'm a baby army and although I love all the guys Jin is my ultimate bias. I love his outlook on life. Everything about him and how he sings his songs with such emotion is so inspirational. I love starting the day with Jin's songs and ending my days with a good laugh from watching Jin content 🤣
I love that Jin and Suga are best friends and were roommates the entire time the boys lived together since they are not an expected pairing. They're actually very supportive of one another. Yoongi even said that Jin is like a real brother to him.
I always took the song to mean that though he might not have felt as talented as the other six petals/flowers (maybe I can’t touch the sky), he will keep trying and keep improving. It’s about pushing forward even when scared. I can see where his insecurities came from. He didn’t know how to sing and dance so he worked extra hard and I love him for it. The WWH and Im so handsome comments started as a joke then became his way of boosting himself up. We can all be more like Jin
Congrats hobi lollapalooza was epic!!! John you must hear jin in crystal snow...that one he gets me. He always catches me off guard when he crushes that one high note moment...i wont spoil it for you but you must check it especially the live version of it.
I think AWAKE is his personal story being in BTS, as he mentioned the other 6 members in the lyrics as " Maybe I, I can never fly like those flower petals over there" and "holding six flowers tightly in my hands" - as I've took the meaning as him feeling that his wings are still weak and struggling and needing to do more but still he wanted to try and run towards his dreams and fly to get better. I love Jin. Well I did say I love Suga, too! But amongst the vocalists - it is Jin who makes me feel the song word for word. I especially love YOURS (Kdrama 'Jirisan' OST) and Epiphany. JK is great, his voice is flawless and super smooth; V is all soul and Jimin.. Jimin is fantastic. But it is JIN who makes me feel things when he sings :D Thanks John! Great reaction once again! Take care! 💜
Thank you so very much to reacting to Jin's magnifcent song "Awake". I don't think Jin, RM and SUGA given their due - their dancing is fantastic and to think that Jin and RM had never sung before becoming a member of BTS. SUGA's dancing is goregeous and apparently he is taking singer lessons. I love your channel and your reactions.
The video with Yoongi singing awake is from the 2017 festa, where the memmbers teamed up with their roommates and did quizzes, challenges and a performace each, as well as some performances all together. For the roommate units, RM & V performed V's song that features RM 4 o'clock, 3J (Jimin, J-Hope and Jungkook) aka the dance line did a dance performance and Sin (Suga + Jin) performed each other's song. The full home party is here th-cam.com/video/_Yupi_1FK84/w-d-xo.html, this is the Jin & Suga part th-cam.com/video/1v2ivM15C6A/w-d-xo.html (also, the rest of BTS reacting to it th-cam.com/video/OKTL5DFwsjk/w-d-xo.html)
This was epic. and Jin rapping Sugas song was just...perfect. Suga and Jin friendship chemistry is so much fun esp when Jin pulls hyung card and suga actually gives in...unwillingly and grumbling.
Finally my Jinnie , this song also mirrored his own struggle 💜, ABYSS is the song that Jin really opened up about what he is going through.Hope you can listen to it buddy 💜
Thank you for always gushing about Jin. I love his voice, his passion - which is so obvious when you watch him sing live…just moving performances! I love him!!!
Ah, a new Seokjin biased. I strongly recommend you to watch the Moon live perfomance from the DVD of the concert Map of the Soul. Specially of you like his high notes and the rock pop beat.
I hope you've heard the live version of Awake with Army singing along with Jin - it's awesome. Thanks for supporting Jin with your reactions. All the members are great in their own way but Jin is just special.
Living all your BTS reactions...especially this Jin performance "Awake"... The instrumentals, Jin's passionate delivery...chill bumps!!! Luv the fact you show your vulnerability in showing your passion.. 🙏💜 thank you! And did I hear previously a Nashvillian??? from a faithful Tennessean follower. Never stop!❤
Well done Hobi! And JIN’s Awake made me cry the first time I listened to it whilst reading lyrics at same time. And then I watched the live and cried again
I have so much respect for Jin. When he became a trainee at the age of 18 he didn't have any singing or dancing experience like other members did. So he basically had to work his way up thru sheer effort. He taught me that effort will pay off but at the same time he said "Only you need to know how hard you worked." AWAKE reminds me of his speech he made at Korea's Youth Day 2020. Worth checking out his inspirational speech.
Hey John thanks for this reaction. Jin was indeed a hidden gem when he was discovered. Some people will give all the praise to Jungkook and Jimin but often take Jin’s voice for granted. I think his voice is beautiful and unique. And yes, congratulations to Jhope for his amazing performance in Hobipalooza. He was soooooo good. I was watching him like a proud momma with tears in my eyes. After all the hate and negativity he got in the beginning, he’s proven that he can hold his own as an artist. Words can’t express how proud and happy I am for him. Keeping my fingers crossed for a Jhope tour 🤞🏼🥲💜
John, I have been following your journey to BTS since you started. Love your reactions to BTS and I hope you continue to go on a deep dive and love this group as much as I have. I’m a Filipino male ARMY and my bias since I started has been Jin. I love this guy (Jin) for all the reasons that you stated and more. Everytime I hear or listen to his voice I feel the emotions that Jin has. I have been an Army since the release of Dynamite and I can say that I have never look back and regretted stanning or loving this group (BTS). Jin is very underated for me especially when they sing live as group. He comes of as a reliable and solid vocalist and I understand that he has a hard time singing while dancing but he does his best and I appreciate and love him for this. I love Jin’s solo work because his voice gives of this feeling of vulnerability and Awake is definitely my fave of the bunch. Also J-hope did a fantastic job headlining Lollapalooza! 💜
@MJ, same here. I’m a Filipino too and have been a Jin bias since I got to know the group. I love this guy because for me he is talented, and his personality is so beautiful. So great to hear that there are male armys who like and support Jin. 💜
Amo tus palabras, tus expresiones y tus emociones al analizar a JIN. Mi bias. Y por lo que escucho, el tuyo. Siento las mismas emociones al oírlo. Y bien lo dijiste. Tiene una voz ELEGANTE. Como todo en el❤❤❤💜
I admit, that when I started stanning BTS, Jin wasnt my favorite. The first person who caught my attention is JK. And along my BTS journey I fell in love with Jin completely. Suga is my ult. But Jin,,,, oh ksj, his voice is just amazing, his voice is my favorite. The voice that makes my heart melt and happy. 🫰🏻💜🫶🏻
I’ve recently started watching your reactions and thoroughly enjoy it...I happened on to BTS in late 2019 but didn’t start really listening til 2020 when depression hit me after a series of life events ....my daughter pushed me into listening to BTS and their music among other things has helped me ...they grab you by the heart when they sing. I was in awe of them and have enjoyed watching others be blown away...you are so respectful in reacting to them ....I hope they bring joy to your life as well💜
Congratz HOBI! so proud of hobi last night...i even rewatch hobi performance again today. Now with awake...i love this song from JIN. one of my favorites from him 💜💜
Congratulations J Hope! He killed it! I’m OT7 but Jin’s story captured my heart 💜. The first time I heard this song I cried thinking he is singing about himself and comparing himself with others members. To me he is a phoenix flying high.
I get goosebumps every time I hear him , his voice content so much emotions..not words to describe how much he amazing.. love our worldwide handsome so much ..and John don’t forget you really are amazing person too 😊.thank for you reactions love it ,and thank you Meg for all video and you hard work 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
My personal thoughts on Awake and Epiphany. I find that two go together quite well. Awake feels like how Jin has felt about himself, his talents, and his place in BTS during that time. Similar to Jimin, he’s never realized how special and incredible his voice is. Both of them have put in an insane amount of work into their vocals because they constantly think they should improve. I see Epiphany as the follow up to Awake once he’s realized that he is special and deserves to love his current self just as he is. Another note, at the end of his live performance you hear the audience clapping rather than screaming. This performance was in Japan and applause is a sign of respect. It was a really touching and emotional moment for Jin. He cried 🥺 When you watch his Osaka performance of Epiphany they give him applause afterwards as well. Thank you for the Jin appreciation 💜
I am an OT7 but I do love Jin too ... got his playlist always playing, just love his solo songs so much ♥️♥️☺️ but cheers to the team! BTS is just amazing 💪
Jin did magic with that song and before the astronaut this is my anthem not bec of whoever wrote the lyrics but bec if who interprets and sing it. He is gold yes and everything jIn touches turns to gold as well.
Jin sang Awake 6 notes higher than usual with Jimin in that clip you watched. What I love most about Jin is that whenever he cover songs from other artists, he makes it more emotional than usual. Jin covers: Autumn Outside the Post Office Mom I Love You
The WALLPAPER design is the symbol of Abraxas, a deity who serves to unite the entire world, the light and the dark, the godly and the devilish. He does not represent either; rather, he is the affirmation of both. -- this is from the book Demian which inspired the Bangtan Universe storyline. Those lines being narrated by RM in the beginning was from the book as well, entitled: Demien, The Story of Emil Sinclair's Youth is a Bildungsroman by famous writer Hermann Hesse.
Love your reaction! Jin is my bias too. His timbre is the one that is most pleasing to my ear out of the 4 vocalist (they're all great tho), but his voice speaks to me the most. He doesn't just sing, he tells stories. I was attracted by his appearance at first, then captivated by his voice, and finally fell in love once I learned about his personality. I love how he is so honest in his music. That man deserves all the love in the world. Btw that suga & jin video is from 2017 festa if I'm not mistaken. You can find the rehearsal where Jin rap Suga's Nevermind, and Suga sang Jin's Awake in Bangtan Bomb, but it's not subbed. And this link from Bangtan Subs has English subs. th-cam.com/video/nozO7CvSct4/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much for your reaction and the wonderful things you said about Jin. I actually think of him as flawless diamond because of the purity of his voice. Jin is the only member of BTS that can hold an audience enthralled by just standing there and singing, and his solo is usually the last solo in the concert, so a finale of sorts. I read an interview with him where Jin said that he had to fight to be able to sing Awake the way he wanted, apparently the producer wanted him to sing it differently (or wanted the song to be written differently). Must have been an intense disagreement because Jin made a comment about being careful to choose producers he could work with. He said before Awake he was indifferent about writing his own songs. Jin is quite self-deprecating when talking about his projects but in my view he has solid self-confidence because he has a vlive where he is sharing a piano piece that he is learning, mistakes and all. You have to be a heck of a confident person to show millions of vlive viewers imperfection. Suga is actually the most accomplished in instruments - he has played the piano for years. May I suggest you react to a video of Jin, V and Jimin doing an acoustic medley of Boy in Luv / Danger / I Need U. It was during a Japan fanmeet. Jin plays the guitar in this video and the vocal harmonies are just gorgeous. And well done Hobi! So good to see our Mr. Sunshine come into his own.
When I heard this song and saw the lyrics, I got the meaning that Jin being the oldest was lamenting about how he would be the first one to leave to go to Military duty. As in their early years, the struggles, the running, they went from no more dream to dream, Jin still wants to run, he still wants to struggle, he still wants to dream. When he moves on to military duty he won't be able to fly with them. It's his fate for being the oldest, it's his fate to have been with these guys, the 6 flower petals, his mates who he will miss.
Whyyy Oohh whyyyy....... Awake is a delicate song for me from the beginning, buttttt seeing Yoongiaaa and Jin on the piano makes me cry 😭😭😭, this is truly a very nice video, all the members love Awake..... sooo pleassseee please find the video of Jin and Yoongi..... 🙏🏽😍😍💜💜💜🇸🇷🇸🇷 greetings from Suriname
This is one of my favorite songs (I know I say this about every song but 🤣) and it makes me cry all the time. I have a special Jin solo song playlist for the times I need to be in my emotions and healthily cry. His voice has so much emotion to it and is so beautiful 💜✨
@@JohnReavesLive it was a 2017 festa (which is like an annual fanmeet concert to celebrate their anniversary and is usually thematic and funny). Jin and Suga sang each others songs for this.
yeah , hobi killed it!! im so proud of him. thank you, ARMYs who were present and supported him!!! Jin's voice has soo much emotion. i love his voice. 💜 meg, thanks for that clip, i havent seen it before!!! so fun!
Congrats Hobi! I could be wrong but this song is definintely about Jin’s sincerest thoughts about his abilities as a member of BTS vs the other members… I love this song & love the live performance. 💜
You are right - this forms part of the BU. A lot of symbolism here - the wallpaper shows Abraxas. Yeah, lots of little hints that tie into the other members solo tracks. Seeing Jin perform this live was damn amazing. His vocals are phenomenal
This song had me shed so many tears for Jin, because he is really such a special person. It is so sad to realise that he was always feeling inadequate next to his younger brothers, because he has a truly wonderful voice. There is no solo of Jin's that I don't adore.
Thank you for saying that, Jin IS gold through and through. Silver voice, diamond face... but his golden heart is truly the most beautiful thing about him. (And this is why I'm OT7, because Suga's amazing, but then Jin gives us a song like this, and then the maknaes-- yeah, you get what I mean!) He's said before he only wants to share good things with ARMYs, and so he frequently makes jokes or passes over references to his negative feelings... the one exception is in his music. That makes it even more precious to me, because he's sharing something with us that he otherwise finds hard to talk about. What gets me about Awake is that, despite sounding like a sad song ("I'm never going to achieve this dream"), his lyrics remain strongly hopeful. Many people would see "oh, I'm never going to be good as these others at this" as a reason to give up. But Jin's response is to keep trying-- maybe he can't fly, but he can run. He can be the best that *he* can be. He's not dreaming any longer, he's "wide awake," and he's *trying* instead of sitting and feeling sorry for himself.
Congrats Hobi!!💜💜 it was amazing!! I also love Jin’s voice, I can’t wait for his solo album so I can hear his beautiful voice all the time. I don’t really have a bias, it changes daily depending on the mood I’m in.💜💜💜
I love Jin!!! so thank you for the reaction John.😊 I love Awake, it expresses how he feels early on in his journey. I hope you would react to Abyss someday ( then Super Tuna back to back as Abyss is kind of really sad for me. but beautiful too) n his cover of Autumn Outside the Post office.
After the Awake live performance, you can hear applause rather than cheering. If am not mistaken, this was in Japan. The audience applauded and gave him a standing ovation which is the highest honor given by Japanese people for a performance. It was also to show their appreciation and respect for a beautiful performance. The second standing ovation given to him was the Epiphany live performance.
My fave song of Jin. And yes, I agree with you, Jin is gold through and through.
th-cam.com/video/1v2ivM15C6A/w-d-xo.html
Link to the video where jin rapped and suga sang awake. It was in their muster (fan meeting) in Japan.
Soooooo good, I really love and relate to him so much!
Suga also loves Epiphany.
@@JohnReavesLive i am glad.
Can I just say how much I love that your bias is Jin? I'm an OT7 through and through but there's something about Jin's personality and struggles and just the way he sees life that pulls me in, that I find so relatable.
Yassss!!!
There's a cover by Jin that is such a gem, it's called "Autumn Outside The Post Office". Melancholic with a beautiful harmonica instrumental. Jin was my 1st bias in BTS, although my ult is now Yoongi, Jin has a very special place in my heart, I will always be part of the "Jincult".
In the BU the flower petals represent the members of BTS. In this song Jin talks about how he will never be able to fly like the flower petals. This is because he has never thought that he was as naturally talented as the other members. He has spoken before about his fear of dragging the band down because he wasn’t at the other members level, and because of that he works harder and longer to try and catch up with them. In the song he talks about how even if he can’t fly he will run with his hand out to catch the petals so they will never fall to the ground, and in another part of the song he says that he will hold the six petals in his hands. Jungkook’s song on the Wings album, Begin is a song to the other members, but Jin’s song Awake is also a song about his love for the other members, even as he struggles with his own insecurities. The quote RM read at the beginning of the wings video was from the book Demian by Herman Hess, which their song Blood Sweat and Tears, also from the Wings album was based on.
Also, Hobi was amazing yesterday! He did ARMY proud.
This comment almost made me cry because it's so fitting and true. Makes you love them more for their connections to the members and how much they care for each other.
your comment made me cry, I already knew the story behind the song but reading your comment I don't know why it made me so emotional, I started to imagine Jin's first months of training and all that must have suffered in silence , seeing that he was not up to the rest and being constantly scolded and still persevere because it was the path he chose, Jin has my greatest admiration
🥹
Jin has by far best vibrato in BTS.
I want the present improved Jin to resing this masterpiece
When they worked on awake they didn’t write it with the intention of it being how jin was feeling. Later RM realised it was exactly how Jin was feeling. I call Awake part 1 of Epiphany because in awake he thinks he will never be as good as the other members but he will keep running and trying. In Epiphany he has completely accepted himself as he is not so perfect but yet so beautiful. Thank you for this beautiful reaction I appreciate it!
I love the live performance, Jin sang with such vulnerability, I think it makes many of us Army cry watching him sing this. I even think he was emotional. I love his voice especially in the Japanese songs he is made to sing those. Funny you mentioned the veins in his neck when he belts out anything they appear , also when he gets annoyed and fast talk they appear its funny . Anyway Jin is amazing and a pure talent , it was just hidden , he didn't even know he could learn to sing and thanks to joining BTS he has developed into a phenomenal talent.
LOL I could see that with the vine LOL but yes I totally agree Jin when he sings solo it really brings out that emotion
And to add to this what made me cry even more is the fact that this song was him thinking that he may not be as good as the other vocalists but he still will always give his all which I think isn’t true cuz he’s an amazing vocalist so it makes me emotional knowing that he used to think so little of himself😢
I'm so glad that there's another person who agrees that Jin's voice suits Japanese songs. Because I once put such comment and there's another person laughing at my comment. As if he/she disagree with it.
John, I've been watching your reactions for a while now and at some point I realise you were a Jin bias .. he is my ultimate bias .. I absolutely love Jin's story and his perseverance to be where he is right now .. also I love Epiphany but Awake, I just have a little more love for this song .. it literally encourages you to persevere to achieve your goals, no matter how much obstacles you encounter, just keep going .. love love love how you give us the whole experience of every song 🥰🥰🥰🥰💜💜💜💜and of course congratulations to Jhope for creating history for himself and BTS as a whole .. that Lollapalooza performance was epic 👏👏👏👏👏🥰🥰🥰💜💜💜💜💜💜 By the way Jin can play the piano and guitar .. Suga can play piano and guitar as well .. Jungkook can play the drums 👏👏👏
Shireen thank you so much for this! I totally agree with that message you get from this song and I relate to it so much, he has such a way with his lyrics, jin bias for sure!
Jin is our emotion stirring Ballad King for sure.
Suga when in the mood is a vibe...🤣🤣🤣 He really is a supportive roommate to Jin. He also loves Jin's Epiphany.💜💜💜
I’m also a Jin bias, have been from the start. Awake is part of there story line the BU.
"He's gold all the way thru!! That's freakin Jin!!" Aahhh I love that John, yeahhh tell them that's our bias!!! 😭
Waahhh I am sooo late for this I'm so sorry John!! 😭 I've been so busy and tired this week, and seriously this is what I needed today for comfort! So thank you so much for this!! When I saw this my whole body lit up!! 💜 This got me so emotional and relieved at the same time. This song is one of the most beautiful ever! And I love how you interpreted the lyrics, godddd so relatable! And it's one of the reasons why we all connect to Jinnie 🥺🥰💜
I am sooo proud of Jin's talents! Often not noticed, but he actually has one of the greatest singing and writing skills. He is such an awesome person, singer or not. He JINspired a lot of us truly with his words and his ways of perceiving things. He's such a gem 💎
That appreciation vid where Suga sings, that's when the time Jin and Suga exchanged songs to perform. It was so hilarious coz Jin has to rap Suga's song then Suga had to hit high notes in Jin's song. It's such an organic performance 💜
The Wings short film of Awake is actually the last. If you've noticed in the start, it already said #7. Awake
So you, my friend, has just fallen to BU. Lol 😆 It's fine that you see it in this order. It'll all come together once you see the other solo songs of the members.
When I got onto this, I don't have a guide of any sort. I just watched whatever. And you'll realize everything once you get to them, then you'll just say on the way "Ahhh so that's what it means!" hehe and I'm sure, with how comprehensive you are with things, you'll discover it on your self. It's what you call your journey 💜
Btw, yeah Hobi in lollapalooza is fire!!!!! Goosebumps the whole time!! 🔥
Sorry for the long as* comment!! I just missed writing to you.. again thank you, thank you for this reaction! Wishing Jin will see this one day 💜 More power to your channel John!!! Love youuu 🥰💜
I absolutely love your reaction. Thank you for supporting our Jin.
The way you describe him had me in tears. Thats exactly how I see him, thats why he's my bias from start to forever. Hope u check out his song Abyss too, he wrote it during a difficult period and was able to share it to army through this song. Im so happy u appreciate him and most specially im so happy he's ur bias too.. 💜💜💜💜
:) for real that means so much thank you, I really appreciate him he is such an amazing musician and I love it!
I for sure will check that song out :) Thank you for the suggestion!
You’re right, Jin can hit any high notes without straining. He was just adding emotions and dramatic effects to the performance. There is a performance that proves it: BTS-We Are Bulletproof: the Eternal (PTD On Stage- Seoul Day3) th-cam.com/video/2RDPkfsNgaM/w-d-xo.html , he was singing up to E5 without even straining a tiny bit. He’s insane!💜
jin is my bias wrecker. I love J-Hope. I'm so proud watch he perform at Lollapalooza. Please react "Jin's dance - by : All about BTS JIN" . love your reactions
Jin is a fantastic vocalist! He hits a high triple note in a little Japanese number BTS does called Crystal Snow….simply amazing 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Im in the middle of studying but I saw this and was like, I have to watch it- and i'm only halfway through and just absolutely a giddy, giggling mess because it feels SOOO good to see someone with the same thoughts and feelings as me when it comes to that ethereal amazing talent we call Seokjin- like I'm always stunned at just how powerful he is, with his emotions- his voice- his aura- everything! He's literally one of the most talented artists I've ever seen, I still am amazed at how humble he is when quite frankly he could take over the world if he wanted to- his voice saves lives and just sends chills through me and the messages and emotions and light he is able to convey.
Just wow! I love your reactions and your words, and like I said im only halfway through so I need to finish the video but I must agree with you, they saw a beautiful being on the street and didn't realize just how much of a diamond they had in their hands- I cant wait to see the great lengths he will reach in the future- because not only will he touch the sky, he'll reach even further than that, I'm sure of it.
You said everything about Jin perfectly!! 😭💜
I absolutely love Jin.
He is such a wonderful person. He is talented and has a great heart.
I’m so excited for all of BTS.
WAY TO GO J-HOPE!!!!!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
First off, Jhope killed it! He did so well and I’m very proud of him!
Also this song. Awake is an underrated song by Jin. Usually people always think of Epiphany, which is an amazing and beautiful song, but Awake is that hidden gem you know? His vocals here are insane and the live show for it is just immaculate!
Also the Wings Short Films are heavy with BU content so don’t feel bad about not understanding them. They are one short film for each member and the names of the videos are tagged with their solo songs in the Wings album (which is why this one is named Awake for Jin’s film)
I totally agree, this seems to fly under the radar but its soooo beautiful and I love how open he is with his lyrics.
Cant wait to watch more of the BU and maybe We'll do a full Wings reaction soon!
@@JohnReavesLive omg yes I’m so excited now!!! Keep up the good work John, but like don’t stress out too much 💜
Epiphany has a great message and that's why people usually recommend it but I believe Jin's voice shines more on Awake and Abyss
WWH never disappoints, he is such a show man. His voice is as sweet as he is. Thank you John for this reaction. To my sushine, Hobi aka JHope aka Hoseok I am so proud of all that you have a accomplish, it was awesome to see you ROCK the stage. BORAHAE and FREAKING TOODLES!!!
This is literally the song that I first heard that started my BTS journey. (You fell in the middle of the BU here btw…it’s the last video)
the tears….adore this man. His genuine personality and quirkiness and beautiful voice are the trifecta 💜
I’d say I am a Jin/Jk equal bias…🤡💜 the oldest and youngest make me laugh the most!
Look for his song Abyss that he wrote after going through a burnout. Jin is an expert when it comes to making us feel what he's singing. 💜
Jin has a lot of confidence to be able to play both guitar and piano on stage when he’s quite new to playing. Jin doesn’t give himself enough credit. He’s a much deeper thinker than he thinks he is. His way of being positive about himself is inspiring. The BigHit recruiter found a gem in him. I’d really love you to react to V and Jin singing ‘It’s Definitely You’, their OST from Hwarang. There’s a video of them singing it th-cam.com/video/tt9nIyzN79Y/w-d-xo.html and a behind the scenes. th-cam.com/video/7JTzP5xQEa4/w-d-xo.html It’s a catchy song and their voices blend together so well.
Great suggestion 👏🏾
Another song I love of Jin’s is called Tonight….omg I balled after hearing it. The emotion he has in his voice. Btw my bias is also Jin 🥰
Oh...I love this song...😭😭😭😭💜💜💜💜
Jin has a stable beautiful silver voice.😍😍😋
this song is about jin's insecurities as an artist, he started off having no experience or background in music at all, differently from all the other members he had to start from zero, so he talks about how he feels that maybe he will never fly as high as the other six flowerpetals/members
My ult Hobi killed it☠️
As a 2Seok biased, proud of both my men hoseok - seokjin
I have been watching your videos for a while now. I love that you are a Jin bias. I'm a baby army and although I love all the guys Jin is my ultimate bias. I love his outlook on life. Everything about him and how he sings his songs with such emotion is so inspirational. I love starting the day with Jin's songs and ending my days with a good laugh from watching Jin content 🤣
You are Jin biased. Love it. This man songs listened to all together, brings me to tears sometimes. His voice is so beautifully emotion-staring
:) 100% agree!
He is made to sing ballads. His voice is so beautiful and comforting that I could just cry.
I love that Jin and Suga are best friends and were roommates the entire time the boys lived together since they are not an expected pairing. They're actually very supportive of one another. Yoongi even said that Jin is like a real brother to him.
I always took the song to mean that though he might not have felt as talented as the other six petals/flowers (maybe I can’t touch the sky), he will keep trying and keep improving. It’s about pushing forward even when scared. I can see where his insecurities came from. He didn’t know how to sing and dance so he worked extra hard and I love him for it. The WWH and Im so handsome comments started as a joke then became his way of boosting himself up. We can all be more like Jin
Jin’s vocals are so amazing and powerful ❣️.
Jin is just amazing 💜🙌👌
Congrats hobi lollapalooza was epic!!! John you must hear jin in crystal snow...that one he gets me. He always catches me off guard when he crushes that one high note moment...i wont spoil it for you but you must check it especially the live version of it.
I love Jin's songs....😍😍😍
Legit vocal coaches who would do reaction videos of BTS songs has high praises of Jin's vocals.
I think AWAKE is his personal story being in BTS, as he mentioned the other 6 members in the lyrics as " Maybe I, I can never fly like those flower petals over there" and "holding six flowers tightly in my hands" - as I've took the meaning as him feeling that his wings are still weak and struggling and needing to do more but still he wanted to try and run towards his dreams and fly to get better.
I love Jin. Well I did say I love Suga, too! But amongst the vocalists - it is Jin who makes me feel the song word for word. I especially love YOURS (Kdrama 'Jirisan' OST) and Epiphany. JK is great, his voice is flawless and super smooth; V is all soul and Jimin.. Jimin is fantastic. But it is JIN who makes me feel things when he sings :D
Thanks John! Great reaction once again! Take care! 💜
Thank you so very much to reacting to Jin's magnifcent song "Awake". I don't think Jin, RM and SUGA given their due - their dancing is fantastic and to think that Jin and RM had never sung before becoming a member of BTS. SUGA's dancing is goregeous and apparently he is taking singer lessons. I love your channel and your reactions.
:) Thank you so much!!! that means the world you saying so! :) I love doing these and learning more about this amazing group of people
JIIIIIN, he's so so so so good, and i really love see people enjoying his beautiful and angelic voice. He just sounds so freaking awesome in my ears.
The video with Yoongi singing awake is from the 2017 festa, where the memmbers teamed up with their roommates and did quizzes, challenges and a performace each, as well as some performances all together. For the roommate units, RM & V performed V's song that features RM 4 o'clock, 3J (Jimin, J-Hope and Jungkook) aka the dance line did a dance performance and Sin (Suga + Jin) performed each other's song. The full home party is here th-cam.com/video/_Yupi_1FK84/w-d-xo.html, this is the Jin & Suga part th-cam.com/video/1v2ivM15C6A/w-d-xo.html (also, the rest of BTS reacting to it th-cam.com/video/OKTL5DFwsjk/w-d-xo.html)
This was epic. and Jin rapping Sugas song was just...perfect. Suga and Jin friendship chemistry is so much fun esp when Jin pulls hyung card and suga actually gives in...unwillingly and grumbling.
Finally my Jinnie , this song also mirrored his own struggle 💜, ABYSS is the song that Jin really opened up about what he is going through.Hope you can listen to it buddy 💜
CONGRATS TO OUR HOBI!!!!💜💜💜💜💜💜 This song always gets to me and Jin's vocals are just too angelic!!🥺
Jin talks to you when he sings .. always tugs your heart ❤️
Thank you for always gushing about Jin. I love his voice, his passion - which is so obvious when you watch him sing live…just moving performances! I love him!!!
Ah, a new Seokjin biased. I strongly recommend you to watch the Moon live perfomance from the DVD of the concert Map of the Soul. Specially of you like his high notes and the rock pop beat.
I hope you've heard the live version of Awake with Army singing along with Jin - it's awesome. Thanks for supporting Jin with your reactions. All the members are great in their own way but Jin is just special.
Living all your BTS reactions...especially this Jin performance "Awake"... The instrumentals, Jin's passionate delivery...chill bumps!!! Luv the fact you show your vulnerability in showing your passion.. 🙏💜 thank you! And did I hear previously a Nashvillian??? from a faithful Tennessean follower. Never stop!❤
At the live after he sang it.ARMY gave him aplauses.The highest form of honor.
Well done Hobi!
And JIN’s Awake made me cry the first time I listened to it whilst reading lyrics at same time. And then I watched the live and cried again
Hobi killed it 😎😎😎….. Love love Jin’s voice cant wait for him to release his tape 💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤
Ahhh he is my bias and i love how you love him too. Thanks for reacting to his songs bcoz they really have a very deep emotions💜💜
I have so much respect for Jin. When he became a trainee at the age of 18 he didn't have any singing or dancing experience like other members did. So he basically had to work his way up thru sheer effort. He taught me that effort will pay off but at the same time he said "Only you need to know how hard you worked." AWAKE reminds me of his speech he made at Korea's Youth Day 2020. Worth checking out his inspirational speech.
Hey John thanks for this reaction. Jin was indeed a hidden gem when he was discovered. Some people will give all the praise to Jungkook and Jimin but often take Jin’s voice for granted. I think his voice is beautiful and unique.
And yes, congratulations to Jhope for his amazing performance in Hobipalooza. He was soooooo good. I was watching him like a proud momma with tears in my eyes. After all the hate and negativity he got in the beginning, he’s proven that he can hold his own as an artist. Words can’t express how proud and happy I am for him. Keeping my fingers crossed for a Jhope tour 🤞🏼🥲💜
John, I have been following your journey to BTS since you started. Love your reactions to BTS and I hope you continue to go on a deep dive and love this group as much as I have. I’m a Filipino male ARMY and my bias since I started has been Jin. I love this guy (Jin) for all the reasons that you stated and more. Everytime I hear or listen to his voice I feel the emotions that Jin has. I have been an Army since the release of Dynamite and I can say that I have never look back and regretted stanning or loving this group (BTS). Jin is very underated for me especially when they sing live as group. He comes of as a reliable and solid vocalist and I understand that he has a hard time singing while dancing but he does his best and I appreciate and love him for this. I love Jin’s solo work because his voice gives of this feeling of vulnerability and Awake is definitely my fave of the bunch. Also J-hope did a fantastic job headlining Lollapalooza! 💜
Sometimes I watch Jin dancing, and he is so completely focused and in his head just that //little// bit that I love him all the more.
@MJ, same here. I’m a Filipino too and have been a Jin bias since I got to know the group. I love this guy because for me he is talented, and his personality is so beautiful. So great to hear that there are male armys who like and support Jin. 💜
Amo tus palabras, tus expresiones y tus emociones al analizar a JIN. Mi bias. Y por lo que escucho, el tuyo. Siento las mismas emociones al oírlo. Y bien lo dijiste. Tiene una voz ELEGANTE. Como todo en el❤❤❤💜
Jin is "diligently learning the piano". Don't underestimate his ability to use stage props. LOL
I admit, that when I started stanning BTS, Jin wasnt my favorite. The first person who caught my attention is JK. And along my BTS journey I fell in love with Jin completely. Suga is my ult. But Jin,,,, oh ksj, his voice is just amazing, his voice is my favorite. The voice that makes my heart melt and happy. 🫰🏻💜🫶🏻
Ah yes, one of my ugly-cry songs. It never fails. Get me some freaking tissues!
I’ve recently started watching your reactions and thoroughly enjoy it...I happened on to BTS in late 2019 but didn’t start really listening til 2020 when depression hit me after a series of life events ....my daughter pushed me into listening to BTS and their music among other things has helped me ...they grab you by the heart when they sing. I was in awe of them and have enjoyed watching others be blown away...you are so respectful in reacting to them ....I hope they bring joy to your life as well💜
Congratz HOBI! so proud of hobi last night...i even rewatch hobi performance again today. Now with awake...i love this song from JIN. one of my favorites from him 💜💜
Congratulations J Hope! He killed it! I’m OT7 but Jin’s story captured my heart 💜. The first time I heard this song I cried thinking he is singing about himself and comparing himself with others members. To me he is a phoenix flying high.
I get goosebumps every time I hear him , his voice content so much emotions..not words to describe how much he amazing.. love our worldwide handsome so much ..and John don’t forget you really are amazing person too 😊.thank for you reactions love it ,and thank you Meg for all video and you hard work 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
it would be a lie if i watch awake live and not crying. that live always gives me the heavy feeling and sadness
It is a dream of mine to hear Jin in full fledge rock song😭 Run BTS - gave us a bit of taste, but i think he would tear down the rock vocals
My personal thoughts on Awake and Epiphany. I find that two go together quite well. Awake feels like how Jin has felt about himself, his talents, and his place in BTS during that time. Similar to Jimin, he’s never realized how special and incredible his voice is. Both of them have put in an insane amount of work into their vocals because they constantly think they should improve. I see Epiphany as the follow up to Awake once he’s realized that he is special and deserves to love his current self just as he is.
Another note, at the end of his live performance you hear the audience clapping rather than screaming. This performance was in Japan and applause is a sign of respect. It was a really touching and emotional moment for Jin. He cried 🥺 When you watch his Osaka performance of Epiphany they give him applause afterwards as well.
Thank you for the Jin appreciation 💜
I am an OT7 but I do love Jin too ... got his playlist always playing, just love his solo songs so much ♥️♥️☺️ but cheers to the team! BTS is just amazing 💪
CONGRATS J-HOPE!!!!!!!! Awake always makes me cry....it hits such a deep part of me
Jin did magic with that song and before the astronaut this is my anthem not bec of whoever wrote the lyrics but bec if who interprets and sing it. He is gold yes and everything jIn touches turns to gold as well.
I love Jin so much. Thank you so much John. I always love your reaction. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Jin sang Awake 6 notes higher than usual with Jimin in that clip you watched. What I love most about Jin is that whenever he cover songs from other artists, he makes it more emotional than usual.
Jin covers:

I Love You
The WALLPAPER design is the symbol of Abraxas, a deity who serves to unite the entire world, the light and the dark, the godly and the devilish. He does not represent either; rather, he is the affirmation of both. -- this is from the book Demian which inspired the Bangtan Universe storyline. Those lines being narrated by RM in the beginning was from the book as well, entitled: Demien, The Story of Emil Sinclair's Youth is a Bildungsroman by famous writer Hermann Hesse.
Namjoon's quote in the beginning of the MV is a direct quote from Demian by Herman Hesse. It's a really interesting read💜
Working my way through it right now actually!!! I love it!
@@JohnReavesLive I'm glad you are enjoying it. 💜
Love your reaction! Jin is my bias too. His timbre is the one that is most pleasing to my ear out of the 4 vocalist (they're all great tho), but his voice speaks to me the most. He doesn't just sing, he tells stories. I was attracted by his appearance at first, then captivated by his voice, and finally fell in love once I learned about his personality. I love how he is so honest in his music. That man deserves all the love in the world.
Btw that suga & jin video is from 2017 festa if I'm not mistaken. You can find the rehearsal where Jin rap Suga's Nevermind, and Suga sang Jin's Awake in Bangtan Bomb, but it's not subbed. And this link from Bangtan Subs has English subs.
th-cam.com/video/nozO7CvSct4/w-d-xo.html
And this is what I can find for the performance
th-cam.com/video/1v2ivM15C6A/w-d-xo.html
I like your description of Jin. I agree. Thanks for this content.
Thank you so much for your reaction and the wonderful things you said about Jin. I actually think of him as flawless diamond because of the purity of his voice. Jin is the only member of BTS that can hold an audience enthralled by just standing there and singing, and his solo is usually the last solo in the concert, so a finale of sorts. I read an interview with him where Jin said that he had to fight to be able to sing Awake the way he wanted, apparently the producer wanted him to sing it differently (or wanted the song to be written differently). Must have been an intense disagreement because Jin made a comment about being careful to choose producers he could work with. He said before Awake he was indifferent about writing his own songs. Jin is quite self-deprecating when talking about his projects but in my view he has solid self-confidence because he has a vlive where he is sharing a piano piece that he is learning, mistakes and all. You have to be a heck of a confident person to show millions of vlive viewers imperfection. Suga is actually the most accomplished in instruments - he has played the piano for years. May I suggest you react to a video of Jin, V and Jimin doing an acoustic medley of Boy in Luv / Danger / I Need U. It was during a Japan fanmeet. Jin plays the guitar in this video and the vocal harmonies are just gorgeous. And well done Hobi! So good to see our Mr. Sunshine come into his own.
When I heard this song and saw the lyrics, I got the meaning that Jin being the oldest was lamenting about how he would be the first one to leave to go to Military duty. As in their early years, the struggles, the running, they went from no more dream to dream, Jin still wants to run, he still wants to struggle, he still wants to dream. When he moves on to military duty he won't be able to fly with them. It's his fate for being the oldest, it's his fate to have been with these guys, the 6 flower petals, his mates who he will miss.
Whyyy Oohh whyyyy....... Awake is a delicate song for me from the beginning, buttttt seeing Yoongiaaa and Jin on the piano makes me cry 😭😭😭, this is truly a very nice video, all the members love Awake..... sooo pleassseee please find the video of Jin and Yoongi..... 🙏🏽😍😍💜💜💜🇸🇷🇸🇷 greetings from Suriname
This is one of my favorite songs (I know I say this about every song but 🤣) and it makes me cry all the time. I have a special Jin solo song playlist for the times I need to be in my emotions and healthily cry. His voice has so much emotion to it and is so beautiful 💜✨
Your The Best Reactor Of BTS
Congratulations Hobi, you killed it.
That clip with Suga and Jin with a piano, was a Bangtan bomb l believe. Jin swapped with Suga and rapped.
LOL I cant wait to watch the full thing!
@@JohnReavesLive it was a 2017 festa (which is like an annual fanmeet concert to celebrate their anniversary and is usually thematic and funny). Jin and Suga sang each others songs for this.
yeah , hobi killed it!! im so proud of him. thank you, ARMYs who were present and supported him!!! Jin's voice has soo much emotion. i love his voice. 💜 meg, thanks for that clip, i havent seen it before!!! so fun!
For real though on both of those! I am still shook from JHope's performance and this song is still stuck in my head
I really love awake so much
Congrats Hobi! I could be wrong but this song is definintely about Jin’s sincerest thoughts about his abilities as a member of BTS vs the other members… I love this song & love the live performance. 💜
This song is so beautiful and for real I relate to it so much! Jin just has a way about his writing that says what I other wise cannot
You are right - this forms part of the BU. A lot of symbolism here - the wallpaper shows Abraxas. Yeah, lots of little hints that tie into the other members solo tracks. Seeing Jin perform this live was damn amazing. His vocals are phenomenal
Джин мой биас . Я его обожаю. Он очень добрый, умный, скромный , непосредственный , трогательный и божественно красив. Красив с наружи и внутри ❤❤❤❤
Jin diamond in the rough. Jin thank you for this song 🎵 💜
This song had me shed so many tears for Jin, because he is really such a special person. It is so sad to realise that he was always feeling inadequate next to his younger brothers, because he has a truly wonderful voice. There is no solo of Jin's that I don't adore.
Jin is sooooooooooooooooooo underrated 💜💜💜 He is my favourite singer
"he's gold all the way through"
F*ck yes 💜💜💜
Thank you for saying that, Jin IS gold through and through. Silver voice, diamond face... but his golden heart is truly the most beautiful thing about him. (And this is why I'm OT7, because Suga's amazing, but then Jin gives us a song like this, and then the maknaes-- yeah, you get what I mean!)
He's said before he only wants to share good things with ARMYs, and so he frequently makes jokes or passes over references to his negative feelings... the one exception is in his music. That makes it even more precious to me, because he's sharing something with us that he otherwise finds hard to talk about.
What gets me about Awake is that, despite sounding like a sad song ("I'm never going to achieve this dream"), his lyrics remain strongly hopeful. Many people would see "oh, I'm never going to be good as these others at this" as a reason to give up. But Jin's response is to keep trying-- maybe he can't fly, but he can run. He can be the best that *he* can be. He's not dreaming any longer, he's "wide awake," and he's *trying* instead of sitting and feeling sorry for himself.
Congrats Hobi!!💜💜 it was amazing!! I also love Jin’s voice, I can’t wait for his solo album so I can hear his beautiful voice all the time. I don’t really have a bias, it changes daily depending on the mood I’m in.💜💜💜
HOBI ABSOLUTELY KILLED THAT STAGE!! THIS IS MY FAVORITE SOLO OF JINS. HIS VOICE..
Ещё раз доказывает, что у Джина лучший голос ! Браво!!!
I love Jin!!! so thank you for the reaction John.😊 I love Awake, it expresses how he feels early on in his journey. I hope you would react to Abyss someday ( then Super Tuna back to back as Abyss is kind of really sad for me. but beautiful too) n his cover of Autumn Outside the Post office.
After the Awake live performance, you can hear applause rather than cheering. If am not mistaken, this was in Japan. The audience applauded and gave him a standing ovation which is the highest honor given by Japanese people for a performance. It was also to show their appreciation and respect for a beautiful performance. The second standing ovation given to him was the Epiphany live performance.
I watched it Live on Hulu💜
You can watch also behind the scene when jin is lighting the flower, he is so funny.
Love your reactions❤️
Jin’s vocals🥺❤️
Here for the jin appreciation ❤️
