Thanks so much for sharing this story! I wish I could have seen something like this when I first started following BTS about 1 year ago. It was great to learn new things about the group. Hope everyone stays safe during these difficult times.
BTS Don't ever feel u don't know english so its difficult individually to get world wide attention, if i can learn korean u can definitely learn english.practice watching english series like friends, marvel movies u will get it in a month or 2.trust me on dat.I always see u guys feel a lil inferior during English interviews, English talks.jst dont worry.learning english is not as big deal as learning new songs or dance moves.
Kim Taehungg probably not...it is a TON of work (like multiple all nighters and i have to pay for video editing software subscription) but people always end up dissatisfied with how the members are presented...like i’ve been accused of being against jimin, tae, jin, hobi, jk by their respective (solo?) stans and some people even accuse me of hating on yoongi (??? literally my bias??) i made a 2020 one just focused on the group and even then ppl got mad at the little blurbs at the end regarding member roles...don’t really want to step onto that minefield again
@@mono8476 Hoseok said he doesn't like being called a horse. He's a human too, with feelings just like all of us. So no, I really DON'T get it, your point and the reason why you joked about that.
@@elizabeth3440 i didnt know hoseok didnt like to be called that..i thought it was a joke among bts and army..i hv seen the clips of bts saying he looks like a horse (from those i saw they were all laughing and joking)..i love bts so much so why would i want to purposely be mean? J hope is my bias wrecker..instead of cursing at me u could hv told me nicely
@@tiaraa4541korea has a very bad culture in which people are judged by their looks. furthermore Korea has quite a uniform standard of beauty. and it's even getting worse.
We got grandmas and grandpas ARMYs too!!! Pls follow bybrian... I forgot what else his twitter name is lol He's a reporter! He's 31 yo I think, Irish, and he's ARMY. He's made a series about our older ARMYs hehe
I came in to learn about bts cause, lets say someone very special is into kpop. Im rather the hardened type all around and didnt have much interest in kpop but going through just the first 2 characters, Im kinda hooked
He's a doll. Just gorgeous. But by traditional Korean beauty standards his skin is considered 'too dark' and he has 'single eyelids'.... what westerners might call 'flat'' or 'small' eyes.Korean beauty culture celebrates big 'animé eyes' like V's or Jin's and porcelaine-white skin like Suga's.:(
This is by far my favorite video showing who BTS is individually and as a group. Nothing cringy or embarrassing. Just straight forward and mature. It’s a video I can actually share with my friends who don’t know kpop.
Midnight Cameo Thank you madam for appreciate our 7 Boys.. Watch BTS Sea/Paradise/Love myself/Young forever/U never walk alone U'll love it.. "No matter who u'r, where u from, u'r skin colour, u'r gender identity Just Speak Yourself.." (BTS UN speech) 💜LOVE YOUR SELF💜
Midnight Cameo OMG finally someone sharing the same story !!! I’m a 30 yo Moroccan women never listened to any KPOP songs , one month ago by coincidence I found « Idole « on TH-cam and then I discovered the album « Love yourself » and I became in love with them 💛💛😍😍🙏🏻
I almost cried when Namjoon read out that awful comment from some idiot. What a horrible thing to write about such an amazing, talented and gorgeous individual.
As a Dj Im always looking to educate myself on amazing artist and groups. This video has been a huge help in my research of this group. Group is amazing but RM and August D are my guy's right now. Im a product of underground hip hop and I so get and understand the struggle of coming from that world. Shout out to BTS fans who put me on!!!!!
Yep I think V too..wasn't even trying to be famous cuz V is... charismatique...person his personality really unique I think V and suga ...same Sorry for my bad english I hope U undrestand me....✌️😂
These guys seem like good kids. I can see why my daughters like them so much. Plus it doesn't hurt that they are all talented and look out for each other - that's the epitome of what a team does for each other.
You are right Simons. Not many artists out there with clean image. That doesn't promote sex/drugs/immoral lifestyles. BTS is one of the very few in this world. I'm glad your daughter like them. We should have more 'good kids' artists really. They have so much impact on society esp the younger generations.
You are such a cool dad -thank you for taking your daughters interests seriously and the fact that you even looked them up yourself is so amazing! I would feel so happy and surprised if someone in my family did this!
Yeah they're so much more. A group of guys from Korea, singing in Korean, would never be able to top the charts all over the world and sell out stadiums just on looks.
@Alejandro Aguilar Their musical range is very diverse as well. They've fused their songs with r&b, edm, pop, hip hop, house, rock, etc. Thanks for doing a little research on them 🙂 If you're curious about their music, there are videos that can guide you through their albums and the different genres they've covered. They've even sampled songs from American artists like J.Cole, but they're not part of their albums, they're for the fans. A good example is their remake of Born Sinner, rewritten as "Born Singer."
I'm in my 40s and I'm so in love with BTS their music calms me I cannot always understand the lyrics because I don't speak the language but it still calms me and stimulated me to keep moving forward..
And readying the lyric translations I feel even more connected to the songs. PS : if you haven't some good source for lyric translations that also give a bit explanation to references or wordplays check out "doolset bangtan" she has a WordPress website and most of their songs translated. Thought it's always good to read more than one translation but hers are always good 💜😘
I agree, but the part where he had to read those mean things about him made my blood boil...People are so miserable. But the best revenge is success, congratulations to the greatest leader ever ! Haters gon' hate. BTS is taking over the world when this loser talking about mAkE uP and BTS being gIrLs is still irrelevant.
These young men have more talent and work ethic in their pinky fingers than a lot of men twice their age. I also find it hard to believe that any one would make a negative comment on the way RM looks. He is very cute. Keep up the good work. 💖💖
Same. Even if technique isn't perfect, what matters more is emotion and being able to stand out with your own style and voice. No one would listen to a robot sing with perfect technique but no emotion. Lemme remind you that emotion is a thing that can't be taught as well as other techniques (same goes for vibrato, which Jimin also has). You're either born with the talent or figure it out yourself.
Hhhh...literally..first u get awe with their mv / performances, next u want to watch another videos of them. And once u get curious about their names and personalities its over for u. Before u realized the boys will rule over your life. But dont worry, its all worth it 😊 they really bring positive messages through all their works
I’m a 30 year old American & am new to the ARMY. I became a fan after listening to RM speak when they were on NPR tiny desk concert series. He speaks so eloquently and straight to the heart where I caught myself tearing up. They deserve all the praise and recognition. I wish them nothing but the best.
docs.google.com/document/d/1anx0r3DX5aTfG6mgO_7JDmT61ESfCQ5XvMjeLdVS4Dc/edit?usp=sharing here's an organized google doc to help get all info on them. It's super organized. Also, an autobiography by RM translated of his earlier years. docs.google.com/document/d/1C3Q9BS6hflKzIzXCyeb99PqItCIul1HS9pwrdSae0Ms/edit
Jhope was part of the underground dance team Neuron. He won various local prizes for dance, including placing first in a national dance competition in 2008.
Alisha Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I bet if you ask the general population, RM is nothing ugly at all. I think he is unique and handsome in a traditional way. Plus, there is more to anyone rather than looks. RM has way more than just physical appearance as we can see from his talents and all.
broo I'm not even in the fandom but the fact that Jimin & Jungkook had to promote their music on the streets to people, and all seven members got excited for the 2K retweets they got, really touched me. they've grown so much and always be having 1M likes on tweets, even if they do drop some music outta nowhere without a single promotion, we all know it'd still be number one. That's it. these guys caught my heart real good, and I'm gonna join the fandom. do show me around in the fandom, armys! 💜
aww thanks for giving them a chance 💜 they are really hardworking and make really good music also you are heartly welcomed to the hole from where you can never turnback hehe
원디렉션 팬입니까??? 제가 본 원디렉션 팬들은 bts나,,그들의팬 아미를 정말 싫어합니다.. 이유가 무엇입니까?.. 마음이 너무 아픕니다 ...ㅜ.ㅜ bts는 정말로 열심히 일하고, 정말로 팬들을 사랑하며 정말로 겸손합니다. 미워하지 말아주세요...... bts로 하여금 자폐증이나 우울증이나 성정체성등에 스트레스나 고민이 많은 사람들이 여럿 치료도 하곤 했습니다. 그들의 가사는 희망적이며 사람들에게 희망을 줍니다. thanks for giving them a chance .
He sure does. I recommend checking out his United nations speech. He does such a good job conveying his thoughts. The boys will be speaking at the youtube graduation commencement speech on June 6th.
RM is not ugly! I started getting into BTS 2 weeks ago and he's the reason. I thought he was very attractive and wanted to know more about them and now I'm obsessed 😂
He used to always wear glasses in the beginning to cover his face. And still to this day when he does still shots for prints ads he covers up most of his face with his hand. Find pictures of him before he got into hip hop. He will tell you himself he looked homely and not sexy. A nerd. He has had plastic surgery....they all have. It has helped his self esteem, but he still believes he is not that handsome. Write him a fan letter to tell him how handsome he is. He deserves fans who appreciate his good looks and handsomeness.
@@elondahipkins8718 The only members that had plastic surgery done was RM and it wasn’t for cosmetic reason. It was for medical reasons because he had a hard time breathing 😐. Where the hell did you get your information from???
@@elondahipkins8718 I agree with the 2 comments above this. Please please please get you’re information correct. All members of bts DID NOT get plastic surgery.
I don’t even know if it’s possible but I have fallen for BTS for the billionth time.... of course it’s possible! Very beautiful video honestly. I love this so much.... I cried, I smiled, I laughed... My wig flew across the Atlantic ocean... what else is there to feel?
Thanks for a great overview of the group that has changed my life. You did a beautiful job of capturing the most important things about each member and the group as a whole. Thank you. 💜
*RM ("Real Me"; previously known as "Rap Monster") is a "GIFTED CHILD", since he has an IQ of 148.* He scored in the top 1% of the simulated *CSAT* ("Korean college entrance exam"). He got into 1,3% best nationwide when he was a freshman in high school (Korean language, math, foreign language, social studies). He self-studied English in middle school and scored 850 on his first *TOEIC* ("Test of English for International Communication") and 797 on the *TEPS* ("Test of English Proficiency"). His English teacher was the sitcom "Friends". He is fluent in *KOREAN, ENGLISH and JAPANESE* + he studies Chinese. *RM was the company’s FIRST MALE TRAINEE,* and the first person to move into Big Hit Entertainment’s first-ever dorms in 2010. *AS THE LEADER OF BTS,* he has lots of responsibilities, including resolving conflicts between team members and Big Hit, OR just between team members. He needs to represent both the group and the company. He makes sure that "the boys" stay united and focused on their performance. He is expected to give greetings first and to deliver award acceptance speeches. He is known for his moving speeches, e.g. at the United Nations or BBMAs. He is also in the position of taking the blame in many situations. *RM was active in the underground Korean hip-hop scene under the names "RUNCH RANDA", "LARGO", "THE NEXIST", and "STEALO", until he became the first member of BTS in 2010.* RM made a difficult decision to stay in BTS. His peers looked down on him for "not resisting temptation"/ "betraying hip-hop" (e.g. B-Free), and the K-pop fans look(-ed) down on him for not "fitting into" the Korean beauty standards. *In his DEBUT MIXTAPE "RM" (March 17, 2015),* RM talks about his *IDENTITY STRUGGLES* and responds to his critics. (RM: "I wanted to express the thought of, "There are this many sides inside of me, but in the end, this is me, and you who’s listening to this is just you too."") *RM'S SECOND (FREE) MIXTAPE "MONO (Oct 23, 2018)"* is the highest charting album by a Korean soloist on BB200 at #26 with 3 days of tracking with 16K Pure and 21K Untis. RM's "mono" has topped iTunes album chart in 91 countries. (DJBOOTH: "It features fleshed out ideas of solitude, depression, and the search for meaning that were teased on tracks like “Adrift” on RM.") RM won the *"BEST MALE SOLO"* category at the 14th Annual Soompi Awards. While with Big Hit, RM wrote songs for *Korean girl group Glam, like their hit "Party (XXO)"* that is explicit about sexuality and same-sex love; and has produced and written songs for BTS at his studio, "RKive" (former "Mon Studio"). (Billboard: "Party (XXO) is one of the most forward-thinking songs out of a K-pop girl group in the past decade.") *KOMCA ("Korean Music Copyright Association"):* "Domestic every day and the total number of works registered is currently about …(136)". (His pre-debut songs and songs from his debut mixtape are NOT registered). RM is known for his *EXTENSIVE USE OF WORDPLAY* and ability to rap to diverse and complex beats. (Dennis of kpopstups: "I always like to refer to this song, which is, in my opinion, the best rapping any Korean idol has ever done. He raps really fast while changing up his flow and rhyme patterns every two to four bars.") Several media described RM as *"the philosopher who raps", "a wizard of songwriting and composing", "a K-pop icon and hip-hop legend" and "a rapid-fire lateral thinker who can whisk you on the mental equivalent of a gigantic wood-track rollercoaster".* RM has collaborated with many artists, including the *WESTERN ARTISTS* listed below: - *Lil Nas X* (Seoul Town Road) - *Juice WRLD* (& Suga) (All Night) - *HONNE & BEKA* (Crying Over You) - *Steve Aoki* (& Jungkook, Jimin) (Waste It on Me) - *HONNE* (Seoul) - *Fall Out Boy* (Champion Remix) - *Wale* (Change) - *Mandy Ventrice* (Fantastic) - *Krizz Kaliko* (Rush) - *Warren G* (P.D.D. - aka Please Don’t Die). On Aug 22, 2019, RM extends his record for *"THE MOST MONTHLY LISTENERS ON SPOTIFY"* for a Korean soloist with 7,849,965 (449th in the world). On Aug 27, 2019, RM is *"3RD MOST FOLLOWED KOREAN SOLOIST ON SPOTIFY"* with 1,249,902 followers. RM broke several *SPOTIFY RECORDS (thanks to "Seoul Town Road" & "seoul"):* - the 1st Korean soloist who had multiple entries on the Global Top 200 chart; - the highest entry for a Korean soloist on the Global Top 200 chart (#114); - the biggest debut day for a Korean soloist (873,284 str/ams); - the most monthly listeners (7,849,965). RM often interacts with ARMYs via apps such as *TWITTER, FANCAFE, WEVERSE, VLIVE* and recommends music with the hashtags #/RMusic and #/RM. RM also recommends his favorite books to ARMYS, such as: - *Almost transparent blue* (Ryu Murakami) - *Kafka on the Shore* (Haruki Murakami) - *Norwegian Wood* (Haruki Murakami) - *Kitchen* (Banana Yoshimoto) - *Demian* (Herman Hesse) - *Me Before You* (Jojo Moyes) - *Those Who Walk Away From Omelas* (Ursula K. Le Guin) - *The Stranger* (Albert Camus) - *The Catcher in the Rye* (J.D. Salinger) - *Breaking Out of the Man Box: The Next Generation of Manhood* (Tony Porter) and many more. RM is a bias to many, including: - *Naomi Osaka* - *Halsey* - *Luna Maya* - *Kris Aquino* - *Kim Ha-neul* - *Kim Yeon-koung* - *Kath Barbadoro* etc. Last update: Aug 27, 2019 *Info from:* - Problematic men ep.1 - Problematic men ep.10 - Beatles Code ep.15 - Running man ep. 265 - Ellen Makes 'Friends' with BTS! etc.
*I came here to THANK YOU, guys, for taking the time to read my "article" (/introduction) about RM, before someone will report it as well as they already did on "forever rain", "moonchild" and "Seoul Town Road". I really do appreciate your support.
I’m a 35 yo married woman and I didn’t know what was the deal with BTS. Thought they were kinda silly and couldn’t understand the appeal. Then I watched the MVs for Boy With Luv and Dynamite and man, was I hooked! Their songs are fun and catchy, with meaningful lyrics, their performances are breathtaking and impressive and they seem to be 7 lovely boys that get along and do what they love... I’ve had some rough moments this last year and their songs lift me up and put a smile on my face. So this is my second time watching this video (I can almost always recognize each one of them) and Jimin and Jungkook have become my favorites... I guess I’ve joined an ARMY now!
Welcome to the army fandom! 💜 These guys are so talented and extraordinary genuine with such charisma, they just charm their ways to your heart. Their music is so inspirational and healing. They helped me through a lot of tough times. I'm glad you gave them a chance. They have so many contents to keep you busy. If you haven't watched their Run eps, In The Soop, Bon Voyage, you should. You will cry and laugh with them.
@@whippedforkimtaehyung3087 It's been over a month since my comment and I'm happy to say that I'm a full fledged Army right now lol I still haven't seen In the Soop and the BVs, but I'm getting updated on the Run eps and I just love it. I love their music and love their personalities. Just love watching them. So happy I found them, I feel like I just gained 7 new best friends. Thanks for your recommendations! 💜
I also watched the VMA and saw people very impressed with the Dynamite performance and it makes me laugh a bit as this performance is far from the most impressive of their performances 😂 (even though Dynamite's performance was very beautiful too) For example this is a performance of the full version of "Idol" by BTS and it is very impressive !! th-cam.com/video/LfgXdDaryBE/w-d-xo.html (I'm sorry, English isn't my native langage 😅)
Pfft--- let's not forget.... when US Vogue did their 1st spread on BTS they referred to JIMIN as "the prettiest one." (.....) Jimin spent years being mocked in Korea for being so plain-looking & ugly that he MUST have been some distant cousin of Bang Si Hyuk (BTS's famed producer) in order to have been cast into a 'boy band...' 'Ugly' in one culture; beautiful in another. The world is an amazing place.
Honestly, the first time I came here, I had heard a lot about them as well and I was curious. When I saw RM, I only retained his face, his dimple (my weak point, lol), and his serious mindedness. I could relate with his person on many level, so I thought he was the handsome one and Korean beauty standards suck not to see that. Please, ARMIES, don't be hard on me. I am a newbie at this. :-D
I'm stunned that RM was labeled as not good looking enough to be an idol. My friend got me into BTS' music, showed me a video and asked offhand who caught my attention first. Immediately RM. Adore the other members but RM's beautiful soul and skills are wonderful!!! 💋
You'd have to be on another planet not to have heard of BTS, but I've only just decided to look into them as a band today. A very talented group of young men. Shame they have fans that push the boundaries, but I can only guess they would be few compared with the majority. Wishing them all the best for the future, RM strikes me as a fantastic motivating leader
It's a huge fanbase with various different ages. The toxic ones are the loudest and young ones, but overall majority are good ppl. We don't let them give us a bad name. RM is the best leader and Suga is one too, he leads from the back. They're the backbones to the group. But individually they give their own different ways to add to their group as a whole. Definitely 7 amazing talented men.
"RM doesn't fit korean's beauty standards" ofc RM's beauty standard is more bigger than korean's beauty standards so definitely he won't fit to that small standards 😽
yes also they have like a reality show (RunBTS and it's free). They are so SO funny lol and also very humble and relatable guys. They take music and performing really seriously also they went through a lot of shit since their debut (debuted in an almost in bankruptcy agency)....They love their fans a lot and always communicate with them via live (on the Vlive application) or on weverse ( it's a application where both them and fans can communicate, share photos and messages. They often reply to funny and encouraging posts and share cute photos with their doggies etc).
My sons have called me mighty mouse before because I am so much tinier then they are but scarier. Sometimes its the cute and sunny ones who can get you. Rawr!
Very new to k pop and Korean culture as a whole, shocked to see RM isn’t considered good looking as he was the first one I saw and thought was so gorgeous!!!!
Well kpop fans =/= ARMY! Though we do have kpop fans in the ARMY, they stan other bands besides our boys but most of us aren't kpop fans. Thing is in there they have a very defined specific typo of look and 'visual' as they say. It's quite brutal. Kpop fans hates us ARMYs and the boys a LOT. Not that the west doesn't have beauty standards as well, but in the west it's not taken naturally as if it was ok. You gonna get trashed if you dared to talk sht about someone's looks (notice what happened to Billie E. last week)
so I don't listen to kpop, and I knew of BTS but had never listened to their music. I finally caved and decided to look into why they have so many fans, and stumbled upon this video. I think I get it, they're definitely very talented and hard working, but they're also real people, with hopes and dreams and passions, and the video did a good job of portraying that. it made me want to start listening to their music lol
I can relate, I have never really listen to any kind of K-pop music, and I was wondering why every one was talking about something called BTS, on every social media app. I figured out it was a boy band, and since I heard so many things about it I decided to listen to there music and give it a try. And there music is great, and very catchy.
Me too, I thought he is bit different from others coz of his unique features. But I always thought that he was really hot and handsome guy. I was really shocked to hear that they would think he's not good looking. I mean people do u even have eyes????
I thought he was very different. Not as attractive but Carpool Karaoke changed all that. He is my favourite. They all have loving personalities and seem so kind to each other. I can see real beauty in RM.
These guys just brought back the fangirl I was before! I'm looking forward to a growing respect and admiration for these talented artist as years go by. BTS deserves the worldwide attention!!!
Jhope was part of the underground dance team Neuron. He won various local prizes for dance, including placing first in a national dance competition in 2008.
This was beautiful, i truly hope new fans come across your video and not those cringey videos with stuff like god of destruction, horse, mom. I wish I had come across a video like this when I first joined, but I’m happy that I took time to learn and not go based off those videos. This was very well made and brought me to tears. It gave all the relevant and accurate info about the members and gave an amazing insight to who they really are individually and as a group. Thank you
Ikr I love those dorky and memes video of BTS but it's not a good start for the beginners who want to know BTS' achievement, background, why they're famous, why army love them sm and their journey to become who they are today. This video is totally recommended bcs it has all the content of why I actually stan these 7 legends💜
This video is great bcs it is more updated I mean I felt so happy from the start since the person who made it put 4 main dancers (recently including V). If I was a beginner I would like to see this video first but I like the other ones too. It isn't necessary to put down other videos to prove our point, it is really easy to see which one is more accurate or which one more informal.
I think we should start directing new fans to this video rather than some others that focus more on ships and other things like that, I like those videos but I don't think they're the best introduction to bts for new fans. This video is good because it covers all 7 members and focuses on what's really important and what we all love about them.
I actually first heard about them through a joke which led me to Expensive Girl. Yep. It took me a lot of persuasion from my best friend to make me an army after that but I'm here now.
I'm 57 years old and I've come from a whole nest of artists. The life story is a sad one, but tonight I was introduced to BTS by my granddaughter who is an amazing child. None of us have much of anything, but she was taken away from the family almost 5 years ago and we've only been in touch for the last year. She is a spiritual (not religious) child by nature and has connected with this group on a pretty profound level. Somewhere she heard that BTS would be playing in Orlando. We don't have much but if I could have found tickets that we could have afforded, I would have found a way. No one deserves to see these kids more than she does. She's seeing way beyond the show, she listens to the messages, she's impressed by the variations in their music as was I. We studied the legend of the flower together tonight on the phone. Unfortunately, what she had believed, that they were actually going to come to a place close to where she is now, was not at all true. It was very sad. We looked into the culture in which these kids were raised. Amazing. She loves them because they are beautiful and joyful. She wants that in her life and they inspire her, despite the horrible things she's been through in her very short life; they've made a place inside her that she feels safe to be. We spent many hours together tonight by telephone. She guided me through their songs as she monitored my reaction to everything we listened to. I know from what I've seen so far, that these kids love humankind. If ever they come to Orlando or where I am in North Carolina, we would love the chance to see them. Kudos to the boys, their brilliance, their talent, their ability to experience joy and be everything all at one time. The love they share with their "army". Just know that there is one little girl, interestingly, her name is Italia (where the legend had taken place) and she would love to see her new friends in person if ever there is an opportunity.
Aw, gimme a hug haha! So sweet. I'm keeping up with these young men! What a gift for their generation. I know talent when I see it. Thank you Bruges HJ :)
I can't put my finger on it but they just have this thing about them that makes it so easy to just love them and be obsessed with them, more than ANY other celebrity ever
I've watched a lot of people react to this video and I swear it's the biggest ARMY-bait out there. Like, so many people have watched it just wanting to learn their names and become full-on stans. You seriously did such a great job with this.
I was just watching The James Corden Carpool Karaoke because I was curious and I’ve been watching nonstop videos of them for the past two days and they just seem like an amazing group and this honestly just made me cry I don’t know why but watching this made me cry because of how amazing they truly are so can somebody lead me into becoming a part of the army please thanks !
Welcome to the fam, army! I recommend you watch some compilations made by armys and simply enjoy yourself by slowly getting to know them without any pressure. After some time you'll find yourself learning more naturally, so don't worry ^.^ Have a good time 💜 (purple has an important meaning for armys, search it up 😉)
Sokaina Haichami I recently watched many different army’s youtube varieties of videos and I’m progressing in getting to know them and enjoying BTS as people and artists but I’m going to lots of research while in quarantine
Duuuuuude they're so much cooler than I thought. And you're telling me there's a storyline going on, how deep does this go? I feel like a child opening a present on Christmas Eve
Jhope was part of the underground dance team Neuron. He won various local prizes for dance, including placing first in a national dance competition in 2008.
Now that it's been 10 years, there is 15 years of history to uncover if I include predebut and the rappers underground days. Everything from artistry, musicality, personality, hardships, popularity, lyric explanation videos, mv breakdown videos, socio political influence etc etc etc
to be honest i think that RM is the most attractive? the others like V and Jungkook are cute, but RM is very handsome. Maybe because i am not from korea
Best BTS introduction video ever! It shows their serious side, and the quirky side, without being cringey or trying to give too much info. Perfect for BTS newbies.
I just became a fan and rm was instantly one of my faves (honestly I love them all) I cant believe some people think he's ugly. I can see why people say he isnt like a normal idol, but I thought that was the coolest thing about him. Your differences make you beautiful 😊
Tim Drake My daughter has been ARMY since 2014 and never shared much about BTS. I knew of them from her. When they were on The Voice this year I saw them for the first time and I was hooked! V’s vocals and the choreo are what attracted me, and I started watching their other MVs. Now, I’m an ARMY Mom!!!!! I love all seven of my boys and am so proud of them! I’ve been made fun of because of my love for BTS and their music, but I DON’T CARE! I went to see their movie Bring the Soul for my birthday and met a lot of ARMY there. I hope to go to a concert one day very soon.
I....I'm kinda getting into bts and wanted to learn a little about them. Im not like a hard core fan....but hearing about rm....makes me like rlly mad. Hes not ugly, u can be masculine and wear makeup. You can love hiphop and still be an idol. Some people can be really ignorant huh?
now i respect RM and SUGA even more for doing what they love even when people tell them they should not, i have nothing but love and support for this beautiful angels they deserve the world
I can't believe RM was regarded as ugly. I am from an European country and If I had to choose the most handsome guy from BTS (according to my taste), I would go for RM! Tall, interesting face features and intelligent eyes makes him attractive for our European standards :)
RM is so beautiful. People are just assholes because he doesn’t fit the normal standards of an “idol”. Not only is he beautiful but his heart is amazing too. I’m proud of him for staying strong through all the shit he gets
Honestly since I wrote this comment, I’ve downloaded many of their songs and stayed up all night for IDOL. I don’t speak Korean but BTS and Blackpink make me want to learn Korean. And since I basically only understand “you can’t stop me loving myself” IDOL is my go to song when I’m feeling down.
@@naterudamas3495 We are very glad you decided to give them a chance. You can always look up BTS' lyrics in youtube or look up lyric translations in websites, BTS' lyrics definitely shouldn't be missed. ❤
Jhope was part of the underground dance team Neuron. He won various local prizes for dance, including placing first in a national dance competition in 2008
One of my favorite (sad) stories from BTS is when Suga got hit by a car (motorcycle?) while trying to make money on a delivery route. He told the other team members that he hurt his shoulder falling down the stairs in the dorm and didn't tell the staff/manager until the injury started getting worse because he was afraid they would kick him off the team.
I never heard of BTS until I was introduced to them and their music by my girlfriend: who happens to be A.R.M.Y. She got us tickets to their concert in Newark AND New York, and I have to say... I am now a fan!! I love their look, style, and talent! I love to watch them dance! They are also great role models. I love the messages they put out!!
next you need to watch bts from nobodies to legends part 1 and part 2, bts hardships and bts are just people. its about their journey from the bottom until they become right now.
I've been an ARMY for a long time now but I still enjoy watching these videos to remind me why I love every single member of BTS with my whole entire heart. If you're new to BTS, please remember BTS has SEVEN MEMBERS. Stan all seven of them, and appreciate and love every member.
Im a 43 year old woman who's been listening to my culture's music my entire life ( r & b, gospel, reggae, hip hop, and the blues). But, with all of this phenomena going around this group and my daughter talking about it, I decided to check them out. And I must say, what handsome and talented young men they are. They so remind me of the groups of my mom's and my generations except, with a little more flair ( up tempo). And now, Im finding myself learning all about them and listening to the music. I must say that, they sound really good and wishes them much success.
@@sonitravels9666 : Thank you so much and Im sorry if Im late. But, Im a full fledge fan of them now. And RM is my bias. I plan to join the fan club membership when the corona clears.
@@-annie2010 : You have to excuse some of us, we grew up on old skool music and some of us have gotten stuck to that. But, I believe that, in order to understand each other's generations, its important to embrace the music of the past as well as the future. I believe that you have a great mother, its just her taste in music is alot different and today's music does suit her taste.
if you have time try watch : bts from nobodies to legends part 1 and part 2 bts hardships bts are just people why namjoon shines bright as the leader bts born singer live eng sub it's about their background and their journey from the beginning until they become right now :)
Welcome to the family! There's a looooot of content to enjoy outside their music and performances like their variety shows Run BTS! and Bon Voyage on Vlive along with their behind the scenes for their MVs and concerts and annual performances for us fans! Just in case you were interested :)
43 yr old from America, glad to see a lot of people from every age and nation feeling ARMY. Love this video! I wish it had been around when I started. I watched interesting videos, and Blood Sweat Tears / Black Swan made my jaw drop. One day I may see them live. I love their music, and they are a positive light our world needs.
Im over 50. My 12 year daughter show them to me. And fell n love cause of their dancing, singing and they r some of the best acting gentlemen, manners. Oh my goodness their singing
lluvia ruiz martinez ikr!!?? Loll thats how it is in the beginning b/c u dont know who to pick so what i would do is choose each member and have them be my bias for one day of the week since there are 7 days of the week & 7 guys😂😂🤷♀️💜 but NOW KIM TAEHYUNG is for sure my bias & jungkook my bias wrecker (uhh & jhope) but i do love all the members. 💯❤️

Thanks so much for sharing this story! I wish I could have seen something like this when I first started following BTS about 1 year ago. It was great to learn new things about the group. Hope everyone stays safe during these difficult times.
BTS Don't ever feel u don't know english so its difficult individually to get world wide attention, if i can learn korean u can definitely learn english.practice watching english series like friends, marvel movies u will get it in a month or 2.trust me on dat.I always see u guys feel a lil inferior during English interviews, English talks.jst dont worry.learning english is not as big deal as learning new songs or dance moves.
Dont you mind doing an upgraded version of this.....With more clips of each members
Kim Taehungg probably not...it is a TON of work (like multiple all nighters and i have to pay for video editing software subscription) but people always end up dissatisfied with how the members are presented...like i’ve been accused of being against jimin, tae, jin, hobi, jk by their respective (solo?) stans and some people even accuse me of hating on yoongi (??? literally my bias??) i made a 2020 one just focused on the group and even then ppl got mad at the little blurbs at the end regarding member roles...don’t really want to step onto that minefield again

We got grandmas and grandpas ARMYs too!!! Pls follow bybrian... I forgot what else his twitter name is lol He's a reporter! He's 31 yo I think, Irish, and he's ARMY. He's made a series about our older ARMYs hehe
I came in to learn about bts cause, lets say someone very special is into kpop. Im rather the hardened type all around and didnt have much interest in kpop but going through just the first 2 characters, Im kinda hooked
My dad is a fan of RM too
Yep I'm 67! Just as captured as if I was 18.
I'm 40 and a proud ARMY 💜
You know, we all started being Army from "I just wanna know who they are" lol
yeahhhhhhhhhh
Oh girl, I can tell you again
OMG yes LMAO I just wanted to know what was their name and not mistaken them! 🥺
lol yeh
LMAO YEAH I JUST WANTED TO LEARN THEIR NAMES 👁👄👁

RM fits worldwide beauty standards. Period.
of course
Facts
TELL EM
I’m a little confused cuz RM is kinda like EXTREMELY BEAUTIFUL
Serenity Trisdale Korean standards are just harsh bro 😔✊
IKR
He's a doll. Just gorgeous. But by traditional Korean beauty standards his skin is considered 'too dark' and he has 'single eyelids'.... what westerners might call 'flat'' or 'small' eyes.Korean beauty culture celebrates big 'animé eyes' like V's or Jin's and porcelaine-white skin like Suga's.:(
i find him the most sexy
Serenity Trisdale right? How can anyone consider him ugly? Plus he’s got a genius brain which is a major plus
This is by far my favorite video showing who BTS is individually and as a group. Nothing cringy or embarrassing. Just straight forward and mature. It’s a video I can actually share with my friends who don’t know kpop.
I Should Really Be Doing Something Else yes
I Should Really Be Doing Something Else YES
Exactly. I mean, I cant share inside jokes and embarassing videos to my friends who dont know them smh
yes truly the best video for new armys like me
exactly
*when you literally can tell the members apart by looking at a part of their neck/hear them breathing but still enjoy these kinda of videos*
Ombre Pixel i'm in this boat. And I have to say that is not fair use burn the stage scenes! How I Was suppose to not cry???
Same

That‘s how we all became hard stans

gurl me too...i saw a crazy video on fb and loved the song, but didn't know anything about them or music...this was a gr8 intro video...
I may as well chime in... Over the summer I got into the Asian dramas ( I was always a fan of the action stuff) & now I'm digging the music.
I almost cried when Namjoon read out that awful comment from some idiot. What a horrible thing to write about such an amazing, talented and gorgeous individual.
I did cry
I did cry
I did a full on ugly cry
I didn't cry, but that person was really rude to say that to the PRESIDENT

finally a non cringey intro for non fans. thank you so much for making this
Lol xD
Why would non fans even watch the unhelpful ones? Definitely they’ll add “unhelpful” in the title=~=
As a Dj Im always looking to educate myself on amazing artist and groups. This video has been a huge help in my research of this group. Group is amazing but RM and August D are my guy's right now.

These guys seem like good kids. I can see why my daughters like them so much. Plus it doesn't hurt that they are all talented and look out for each other - that's the epitome of what a team does for each other.
They actually partnered with UNICEF for their Love Yourself album trilogy and spoke at the UN. The speech is worth checking out too.
Reign simons none of them are kids
Their no longer kids . Their all in their 20s . Oldest is 27.
You are right Simons. Not many artists out there with clean image. That doesn't promote sex/drugs/immoral lifestyles. BTS is one of the very few in this world. I'm glad your daughter like them. We should have more 'good kids' artists really. They have so much impact on society esp the younger generations.
You are such a cool dad -thank you for taking your daughters interests seriously and the fact that you even looked them up yourself is so amazing! I would feel so happy and surprised if someone in my family did this!
i cant believe this was the video i watched 4 years ago to become an army, time flies
omg RM is fucking amazing. so much respect for him.
Anjail Bakeer agree💜
Agree! And i dont get those people who told him that he’s not good looking. Like wth is wrong with your eyes tho???
Anjail Bakeer Spread the love :3
RESPECT : I THOUGHT THESE GUYS WERE JUST PRETTY FACES... I WAS WRONG
Yeah they're so much more. A group of guys from Korea, singing in Korean, would never be able to top the charts all over the world and sell out stadiums just on looks.
I'm happy you've changed your mind. Thank you. We appreciate you giving these humble boys a chance.
@Alejandro Aguilar Their musical range is very diverse as well. They've fused their songs with r&b, edm, pop, hip hop, house, rock, etc. Thanks for doing a little research on them 🙂 If you're curious about their music, there are videos that can guide you through their albums and the different genres they've covered. They've even sampled songs from American artists like J.Cole, but they're not part of their albums, they're for the fans. A good example is their remake of Born Sinner, rewritten as "Born Singer."
Same here. They've gained a fan!
This is what we call repentance hahaha
I don’t even understand Jin’s cow jokes about the law suit, so why am I on the ground wheezing and crying from laughing too hard?
Lmao me too
Me too 😕
15:16 which is this song?
@@shravani5286 Blood, Sweat, & Tears
I know you probably know translation of the joke. But here you go. Cow sings cow-> korean:soh / sing->song. Soh song means a law suit.
I'm in my 40s and I'm so in love with BTS their music calms me I cannot always understand the lyrics because I don't speak the language but it still calms me and stimulated me to keep moving forward..
And readying the lyric translations I feel even more connected to the songs.
PS : if you haven't some good source for lyric translations that also give a bit explanation to references or wordplays check out "doolset bangtan" she has a WordPress website and most of their songs translated. Thought it's always good to read more than one translation but hers are always good 💜😘
To me, RM is beautiful because beauty is SO diverse. I’m not Korean, if his fineness isn’t Korean or Kpop standard, it’s a stranded somewhere else.
Y'ALL SEE THAT???? THAT WAS THE INTRODUCTION NAMJOON DESERVES IN EVERY BTS INTRO VIDEO
I agree, but the part where he had to read those mean things about him made my blood boil...People are so miserable. But the best revenge is success, congratulations to the greatest leader ever ! Haters gon' hate. BTS is taking over the world when this loser talking about mAkE uP and BTS being gIrLs is still irrelevant.
Agree!
He’s so underrated. I hope him the best :)
The love I have for RM is unbelievable, that boy has my heart forever
These young men have more talent and work ethic in their pinky fingers than a lot of men twice their age. I also find it hard to believe that any one would make a negative comment on the way RM looks. He is very cute. Keep up the good work. 💖💖
I have more respect for RM now. Bless this man and all bts members.

Edited: wow thank you ARMYs for the likes. God bless you all. 😍😍
Thank you!
Me too😘😘

He's my fav for a lot of reasons.
It breaks my heart to see Jimin be so hard on himself. His voice is already so lovely.
oblivious93massacre so trueeee😢
Same. Even if technique isn't perfect, what matters more is emotion and being able to stand out with your own style and voice. No one would listen to a robot sing with perfect technique but no emotion. Lemme remind you that emotion is a thing that can't be taught as well as other techniques (same goes for vibrato, which Jimin also has). You're either born with the talent or figure it out yourself.
How did I just fall in love with them so fast... This is not natural.
Hhhh...literally..first u get awe with their mv / performances, next u want to watch another videos of them. And once u get curious about their names and personalities its over for u. Before u realized the boys will rule over your life. But dont worry, its all worth it 😊 they really bring positive messages through all their works
Ikr same here 😂💜

He speaks so eloquently and straight to the heart where I caught myself tearing up. They deserve all the praise and recognition. I wish them nothing but the best.

Alisha Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I bet if you ask the general population, RM is nothing ugly at all. I think he is unique and handsome in a traditional way. Plus, there is more to anyone rather than looks. RM has way more than just physical appearance as we can see from his talents and all.
broo I'm not even in the fandom but the fact that Jimin & Jungkook had to promote their music on the streets to people, and all seven members got excited for the 2K retweets they got, really touched me. they've grown so much and always be having 1M likes on tweets, even if they do drop some music outta nowhere without a single promotion, we all know it'd still be number one. That's it. these guys caught my heart real good, and I'm gonna join the fandom. do show me around in the fandom, armys! 💜

Once you jimIN you can't jimOUT rm is very good lookinh idk why in korea beauty standarts they don't find him attractive😂
Omg same I love him, If Korea doesn't want him we will gladly accept him!!!
He used to always wear glasses in the beginning to cover his face. And still to this day when he does still shots for prints ads he covers up most of his face with his hand. Find pictures of him before he got into hip hop. He will tell you himself he looked homely and not sexy. A nerd. He has had plastic surgery....they all have. It has helped his self esteem, but he still believes he is not that handsome. Write him a fan letter to tell him how handsome he is. He deserves fans who appreciate his good looks and handsomeness.
@@elondahipkins8718 The only members that had plastic surgery done was RM and it wasn’t for cosmetic reason. It was for medical reasons because he had a hard time breathing 😐. Where the hell did you get your information from???

*RM ("Real Me"; previously known as "Rap Monster") is a "GIFTED CHILD", since he has an IQ of 148.* He scored in the top 1% of the simulated *CSAT* ("Korean college entrance exam"). He got into 1,3% best nationwide when he was a freshman in high school (Korean language, math, foreign language, social studies). He self-studied English in middle school and scored 850 on his first *TOEIC* ("Test of English for International Communication") and 797 on the *TEPS* ("Test of English Proficiency"). His English teacher was the sitcom "Friends". He is fluent in *KOREAN, ENGLISH and JAPANESE* + he studies Chinese.
*RM was the company’s FIRST MALE TRAINEE,* and the first person to move into Big Hit Entertainment’s first-ever dorms in 2010.
*AS THE LEADER OF BTS,* he has lots of responsibilities, including resolving conflicts between team members and Big Hit, OR just between team members. He needs to represent both the group and the company. He makes sure that "the boys" stay united and focused on their performance. He is expected to give greetings first and to deliver award acceptance speeches. He is known for his moving speeches, e.g. at the United Nations or BBMAs. He is also in the position of taking the blame in many situations.
*RM was active in the underground Korean hip-hop scene under the names "RUNCH RANDA", "LARGO", "THE NEXIST", and "STEALO", until he became the first member of BTS in 2010.* RM made a difficult decision to stay in BTS. His peers looked down on him for "not resisting temptation"/ "betraying hip-hop" (e.g. B-Free), and the K-pop fans look(-ed) down on him for not "fitting into" the Korean beauty standards.
*In his DEBUT MIXTAPE "RM" (March 17, 2015),* RM talks about his *IDENTITY STRUGGLES* and responds to his critics. (RM: "I wanted to express the thought of, "There are this many sides inside of me, but in the end, this is me, and you who’s listening to this is just you too."")
*RM'S SECOND (FREE) MIXTAPE "MONO (Oct 23, 2018)"* is the highest charting album by a Korean soloist on BB200 at #26 with 3 days of tracking with 16K Pure and 21K Untis. RM's "mono" has topped iTunes album chart in 91 countries. (DJBOOTH: "It features fleshed out ideas of solitude, depression, and the search for meaning that were teased on tracks like “Adrift” on RM.")
RM won the *"BEST MALE SOLO"* category at the 14th Annual Soompi Awards.
While with Big Hit, RM wrote songs for *Korean girl group Glam, like their hit "Party (XXO)"* that is explicit about sexuality and same-sex love; and has produced and written songs for BTS at his studio, "RKive" (former "Mon Studio"). (Billboard: "Party (XXO) is one of the most forward-thinking songs out of a K-pop girl group in the past decade.")
*KOMCA ("Korean Music Copyright Association"):* "Domestic every day and the total number of works registered is currently about …(136)". (His pre-debut songs and songs from his debut mixtape are NOT registered).
RM is known for his *EXTENSIVE USE OF WORDPLAY* and ability to rap to diverse and complex beats. (Dennis of kpopstups: "I always like to refer to this song, which is, in my opinion, the best rapping any Korean idol has ever done. He raps really fast while changing up his flow and rhyme patterns every two to four bars.")
Several media described RM as *"the philosopher who raps", "a wizard of songwriting and composing", "a K-pop icon and hip-hop legend" and "a rapid-fire lateral thinker who can whisk you on the mental equivalent of a gigantic wood-track rollercoaster".*
RM has collaborated with many artists, including the *WESTERN ARTISTS* listed below:
- *Lil Nas X* (Seoul Town Road)
- *Juice WRLD* (& Suga) (All Night)
- *HONNE & BEKA* (Crying Over You)
- *Steve Aoki* (& Jungkook, Jimin) (Waste It on Me)
- *HONNE* (Seoul)
- *Fall Out Boy* (Champion Remix)
- *Wale* (Change)
- *Mandy Ventrice* (Fantastic)
- *Krizz Kaliko* (Rush)
- *Warren G* (P.D.D. - aka Please Don’t Die).
On Aug 22, 2019, RM extends his record for *"THE MOST MONTHLY LISTENERS ON SPOTIFY"* for a Korean soloist with 7,849,965 (449th in the world). On Aug 27, 2019, RM is *"3RD MOST FOLLOWED KOREAN SOLOIST ON SPOTIFY"* with 1,249,902 followers.
RM broke several *SPOTIFY RECORDS (thanks to "Seoul Town Road" & "seoul"):*
- the 1st Korean soloist who had multiple entries on the Global Top 200 chart;
- the highest entry for a Korean soloist on the Global Top 200 chart (#114);
- the biggest debut day for a Korean soloist (873,284 str/ams);
- the most monthly listeners (7,849,965).
RM often interacts with ARMYs via apps such as *TWITTER, FANCAFE, WEVERSE, VLIVE* and recommends music with the hashtags #/RMusic and #/RM.
RM also recommends his favorite books to ARMYS, such as:
- *Almost transparent blue* (Ryu Murakami)
- *Kafka on the Shore* (Haruki Murakami)
- *Norwegian Wood* (Haruki Murakami)
- *Kitchen* (Banana Yoshimoto)
- *Demian* (Herman Hesse)
- *Me Before You* (Jojo Moyes)
- *Those Who Walk Away From Omelas* (Ursula K. Le Guin)
- *The Stranger* (Albert Camus)
- *The Catcher in the Rye* (J.D. Salinger)
- *Breaking Out of the Man Box: The Next Generation of Manhood* (Tony Porter) and many more.
RM is a bias to many, including:
- *Naomi Osaka*
- *Halsey*
- *Luna Maya*
- *Kris Aquino*
- *Kim Ha-neul*
- *Kim Yeon-koung*
- *Kath Barbadoro* etc.

Hello there! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Props to u for writing this insanely long essay
*I came here to THANK YOU, guys, for taking the time to read my "article" (/introduction) about RM, before someone will report it as well as they already did on "forever rain", "moonchild" and "Seoul Town Road". I really do appreciate your support.
honestly this needs more likess
Where did you get all this compilation of info all together from? Twitter? It’s so awesome!
I’m a 35 yo married woman and I didn’t know what was the deal with BTS. Thought they were kinda silly and couldn’t understand the appeal. Then I watched the MVs for Boy With Luv and Dynamite and man, was I hooked! Their songs are fun and catchy, with meaningful lyrics, their performances are breathtaking and impressive and they seem to be 7 lovely boys that get along and do what they love... I’ve had some rough moments this last year and their songs lift me up and put a smile on my face. So this is my second time watching this video (I can almost always recognize each one of them) and Jimin and Jungkook have become my favorites... I guess I’ve joined an ARMY now!
Welcome!
Welcome to the army fandom! 💜
These guys are so talented and extraordinary genuine with such charisma, they just charm their ways to your heart. Their music is so inspirational and healing. They helped me through a lot of tough times. I'm glad you gave them a chance.
They have so many contents to keep you busy. If you haven't watched their Run eps, In The Soop, Bon Voyage, you should. You will cry and laugh with them.
@@whippedforkimtaehyung3087 It's been over a month since my comment and I'm happy to say that I'm a full fledged Army right now lol I still haven't seen In the Soop and the BVs, but I'm getting updated on the Run eps and I just love it. I love their music and love their personalities. Just love watching them. So happy I found them, I feel like I just gained 7 new best friends. Thanks for your recommendations! 💜
@@camysgsz you welcome. Feel free to ask anything or recommendations, I'll be glad to help. 😊
@@whippedforkimtaehyung3087 thank you! I´ll sure do!
If Namjoon can learn fluent English by watching friends, that means I can learn fluent Korean by watching friends in Korean?
Watch Kdramas, you'll learn fast.
LMFAO
I watched every single Korean drama but I haven't learned a word😂
To learn korean, I listen to BTS's songs
I tRiEd ReeEEEEE
Ohh RM 😢😢🖤 I don't understand the people who hate him. This guy is so perfect
yes! He is ;)
@Antics
obvio
Smart, good looking, extremely talented and the perfect leader.
I watched the carpool karaoke after I saw their performance on VMA. These guys are great. Daebak!
I also watched the VMA and saw people very impressed with the Dynamite performance and it makes me laugh a bit as this performance is far from the most impressive of their performances 😂 (even though Dynamite's performance was very beautiful too) For example this is a performance of the full version of "Idol" by BTS and it is very impressive !!
th-cam.com/video/LfgXdDaryBE/w-d-xo.html
(I'm sorry, English isn't my native langage 😅)
I find RM very, VERY handsome! I don’t see how people can say he doesn’t fit the standards! All the members are beautiful too!
Ikr, president Joon is beautiful af
Exactly
Yes. the standards are the ones that suck, RM is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
*BANG! TAN! SON! YEON! DAN!*
I think it's "so nyeon" since it's like 방 bang 탄 tan 소 so 년 nyeon 단 dan
14:52 "He explained that he chose to be a symbol of hope, a piece of peace, to help people in their stressful lives." Love it, absolutely love it.
Namjoon the sexiest man with cute dimples. He is never ugly.
"RM DOES NOT FIT KOREAN BEAUTY STANDARD."
NAH ! that category ain't enough for his beauty tho 😊 He is MOOOORE than that standard.
Pfft--- let's not forget.... when US Vogue did their 1st spread on BTS they referred to JIMIN as "the prettiest one." (.....) Jimin spent years being mocked in Korea for being so plain-looking & ugly that he MUST have been some distant cousin of Bang Si Hyuk (BTS's famed producer) in order to have been cast into a 'boy band...' 'Ugly' in one culture; beautiful in another. The world is an amazing place.
@@tararasque932 well said
Honestly, the first time I came here, I had heard a lot about them as well and I was curious. When I saw RM, I only retained his face, his dimple (my weak point, lol), and his serious mindedness. I could relate with his person on many level, so I thought he was the handsome one and Korean beauty standards suck not to see that.
Please, ARMIES, don't be hard on me. I am a newbie at this. :-D
I'm stunned that RM was labeled as not good looking enough to be an idol. My friend got me into BTS' music, showed me a video and asked offhand who caught my attention first. Immediately RM. Adore the other members but RM's beautiful soul and skills are wonderful!!! 💋
Same here
Ikr, Namjoonie stan here
Same.... I am a new fan of BTS and I'm soooo into RM!😭💕
I think I'm getting a serious crush! :')
Not a huge fan of kpop but after watching this video I’m literally so fucking proud and happy for them and how far they’ve come
Ellie Lo 💜💜💜
Ellie Lo Thank you so much 💗
AWESOME ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
I like you already.
You'd have to be on another planet not to have heard of BTS, but I've only just decided to look into them as a band today. A very talented group of young men. Shame they have fans that push the boundaries, but I can only guess they would be few compared with the majority. Wishing them all the best for the future, RM strikes me as a fantastic motivating leader
It's a huge fanbase with various different ages. The toxic ones are the loudest and young ones, but overall majority are good ppl. We don't let them give us a bad name.
RM is the best leader and Suga is one too, he leads from the back. They're the backbones to the group. But individually they give their own different ways to add to their group as a whole. Definitely 7 amazing talented men.
"RM doesn't fit korean's beauty standards"
ofc RM's beauty standard is more bigger than korean's beauty standards so definitely he won't fit to that small standards 😽
This is my favorite comment so far and so true
I love you're comment
I'll be honest and say I don't think beauty standards should exist. Why the hell would ppl set a standard for how they look?!
@@jiminssocks1220 People are dumb
RM had me at Hello! He's my forever Idol!
So this is why they have an army..
I start to see that now and i think i'm starting to like them as people.
yes also they have like a reality show (RunBTS and it's free). They are so SO funny lol and also very humble and relatable guys. They take music and performing really seriously also they went through a lot of shit since their debut (debuted in an almost in bankruptcy agency)....They love their fans a lot and always communicate with them via live (on the Vlive application) or on weverse ( it's a application where both them and fans can communicate, share photos and messages. They often reply to funny and encouraging posts and share cute photos with their doggies etc).
Thank You so much 💜💜💜
Fun fact: the sunshine line (J-hope, V and Jimin) are surprisingly the scariest members in the group when they’re mad
th-cam.com/video/3lsyidw1VGg/w-d-xo.html
Yes
Bec they rarely get mad right? Especially Hobi. I remember Jin said that when Hobi gets mad, it’s the other person’s fault
My sons have called me mighty mouse before because I am so much tinier then they are but scarier. Sometimes its the cute and sunny ones who can get you. Rawr!
FACTS
RM can literally kill his fans with his smiles. Those dimples. 😍
Very new to k pop and Korean culture as a whole, shocked to see RM isn’t considered good looking as he was the first one I saw and thought was so gorgeous!!!!
More than two years into the fandom, I still look and think he is the most gorgeous human being.
goes to show that beauty standards are bogus
Yes. RM was the first to caught my eyes too with his rapping.
@사랑Abigail hell yes
Well kpop fans =/= ARMY! Though we do have kpop fans in the ARMY, they stan other bands besides our boys but most of us aren't kpop fans. Thing is in there they have a very defined specific typo of look and 'visual' as they say. It's quite brutal. Kpop fans hates us ARMYs and the boys a LOT. Not that the west doesn't have beauty standards as well, but in the west it's not taken naturally as if it was ok. You gonna get trashed if you dared to talk sht about someone's looks (notice what happened to Billie E. last week)
so I don't listen to kpop, and I knew of BTS but had never listened to their music. I finally caved and decided to look into why they have so many fans, and stumbled upon this video. I think I get it, they're definitely very talented and hard working, but they're also real people, with hopes and dreams and passions, and the video did a good job of portraying that. it made me want to start listening to their music lol
Wow thank you so much💜💜💜
Please also react to nobodies to legend part 1 and 2 fr xceleste..you will really understand why army so love bts so much
also check out the BTS introduction by gaurdarsan which is 8 mini episodes
I can relate, I have never really listen to any kind of K-pop music, and I was wondering why every one was talking about something called BTS, on every social media app. I figured out it was a boy band, and since I heard so many things about it I decided to listen to there music and give it a try. And there music is great, and very catchy.
my niece love there singing, she say it better than the average rap song in america
I always thought that RM looked different from the rest of the members but never ugly if anything he looks special
Me too, I thought he is bit different from others coz of his unique features. But I always thought that he was really hot and handsome guy. I was really shocked to hear that they would think he's not good looking. I mean people do u even have eyes????
Same
Me too at the start of knowing BTS I can only memorize RM, I didn't think he is ugly. Guess what RM is my bia now .
I thought he was very different. Not as attractive but Carpool Karaoke changed all that. He is my favourite. They all have loving personalities and seem so kind to each other. I can see real beauty in RM.
These guys just brought back the fangirl I was before!
I'm looking forward to a growing respect and admiration for these talented artist as years go by. BTS deserves the worldwide attention!!!
Jhope was part of the underground dance team Neuron. He won various local prizes for dance, including placing first in a national dance competition in 2008.
This was beautiful, i truly hope new fans come across your video and not those cringey videos with stuff like god of destruction, horse, mom. I wish I had come across a video like this when I first joined, but I’m happy that I took time to learn and not go based off those videos. This was very well made and brought me to tears. It gave all the relevant and accurate info about the members and gave an amazing insight to who they really are individually and as a group. Thank you
Ikr I love those dorky and memes video of BTS but it's not a good start for the beginners who want to know BTS' achievement, background, why they're famous, why army love them sm and their journey to become who they are today. This video is totally recommended bcs it has all the content of why I actually stan these 7 legends💜
This video is great bcs it is more updated I mean I felt so happy from the start since the person who made it put 4 main dancers (recently including V). If I was a beginner I would like to see this video first but I like the other ones too. It isn't necessary to put down other videos to prove our point, it is really easy to see which one is more accurate or which one more informal.
I think we should start directing new fans to this video rather than some others that focus more on ships and other things like that, I like those videos but I don't think they're the best introduction to bts for new fans. This video is good because it covers all 7 members and focuses on what's really important and what we all love about them.
I actually first heard about them through a joke which led me to Expensive Girl. Yep. It took me a lot of persuasion from my best friend to make me an army after that but I'm here now.
haya hany Omg fellow ARMY where did u get ur profile pic it’s amazing!!!
I'm 57 years old and I've come from a whole nest of artists. The life story is a sad one, but tonight I was introduced to BTS by my granddaughter who is an amazing child. None of us have much of anything, but she was taken away from the family almost 5 years ago and we've only been in touch for the last year. She is a spiritual (not religious) child by nature and has connected with this group on a pretty profound level.
Somewhere she heard that BTS would be playing in Orlando. We don't have much but if I could have found tickets that we could have afforded, I would have found a way. No one deserves to see these kids more than she does. She's seeing way beyond the show, she listens to the messages, she's impressed by the variations in their music as was I. We studied the legend of the flower together tonight on the phone. Unfortunately, what she had believed, that they were actually going to come to a place close to where she is now, was not at all true. It was very sad.
We looked into the culture in which these kids were raised. Amazing. She loves them because they are beautiful and joyful. She wants that in her life and they inspire her, despite the horrible things she's been through in her very short life; they've made a place inside her that she feels safe to be. We spent many hours together tonight by telephone. She guided me through their songs as she monitored my reaction to everything we listened to.
I know from what I've seen so far, that these kids love humankind. If ever they come to Orlando or where I am in North Carolina, we would love the chance to see them. Kudos to the boys, their brilliance, their talent, their ability to experience joy and be everything all at one time. The love they share with their "army". Just know that there is one little girl, interestingly, her name is Italia (where the legend had taken place) and she would love to see her new friends in person if ever there is an opportunity.
thanks for share your history 😊
Jacqueline Rider I just cried :'( What a beautiful story..
Thank you Natalia for caring, you're so kind.
Aw, gimme a hug haha! So sweet. I'm keeping up with these young men! What a gift for their generation. I know talent when I see it. Thank you Bruges HJ :)
Jacqueline Rider ahhh thank you so much for your beautiful story💖 honestly tho,BTS is a gift of this generation.
I can't put my finger on it but they just have this thing about them that makes it so easy to just love them and be obsessed with them, more than ANY other celebrity ever
random It's because they are genuine
I've watched a lot of people react to this video and I swear it's the biggest ARMY-bait out there. Like, so many people have watched it just wanting to learn their names and become full-on stans. You seriously did such a great job with this.
I am in my 40’s but i am definitely into BTS! I love these boys so much.
I am Me 💜💜💜💜💜
I was just watching The James Corden Carpool Karaoke because I was curious and I’ve been watching nonstop videos of them for the past two days and they just seem like an amazing group and this honestly just made me cry I don’t know why but watching this made me cry because of how amazing they truly are so can somebody lead me into becoming a part of the army please thanks !
aww welcome to the family!!! if u ever need any help joining Twitter and following army accounts is helpful way to feel more included
Welcome to the fam, army!
I recommend you watch some compilations made by armys and simply enjoy yourself by slowly getting to know them without any pressure. After some time you'll find yourself learning more naturally, so don't worry ^.^
Have a good time 💜 (purple has an important meaning for armys, search it up 😉)
Sokaina Haichami I recently watched many different army’s youtube varieties of videos and I’m progressing in getting to know them and enjoying BTS as people and artists but I’m going to lots of research while in quarantine

Welcome to the familyyyy
When you already a hardcore fan, but still watch introduction videos.
Ye 😧
Half the comments in the comment section
Duuuuuude they're so much cooler than I thought. And you're telling me there's a storyline going on, how deep does this go? I feel like a child opening a present on Christmas Eve
extremely deep, music videos, short films, notes, mobile game etc i can give you a list if you want :)
@@kabazinga tiny tan, BT21, Bon voyage, we werse, v live.. their own shows on TH-cam.. it goes on and on and on

You're in for a ride, enjoy!
Now that it's been 10 years, there is 15 years of history to uncover if I include predebut and the rappers underground days. Everything from artistry, musicality, personality, hardships, popularity, lyric explanation videos, mv breakdown videos, socio political influence etc etc etc
to be honest i think that RM is the most attractive? the others like V and Jungkook are cute, but RM is very handsome. Maybe because i am not from korea
I feel the same.. RM is hot
My type😊
Dah he is handsome others are cute but there are some times rm is also cute
And he has the best body proportion, as Rina said (the girl in ON mv) when she meets RM, he is the supermodel-like.
I can say he's perfect to be husband material 😁😁
Best BTS introduction video ever! It shows their serious side, and the quirky side, without being cringey or trying to give too much info. Perfect for BTS newbies.
'V is known for his striking face and unique features'
In other words he is GOSH DARN beautiful
Just like the other members
So far I'm liking Suga the most. He's deep, complex and has a lightning fast tongue
I like Suga, he's really deep and has a big heart. :)
The way RM’s personality shows when he speaks English is amazing!!
I just became a fan and rm was instantly one of my faves (honestly I love them all) I cant believe some people think he's ugly.
I can see why people say he isnt like a normal idol, but I thought that was the coolest thing about him.
Your differences make you beautiful 😊
Hey welcome to the army family 💜 yeah ikr RM is indeed beautiful! Have you had a chance to check out his mixtapes yet?
@@Ash-bs7lp nope, I'm glad you said something XD im definitely gonna check them out
@@detectivedjwizard2129 cool! 💜 If you have any questions,don't hesitate to ask :)
He's my bias because of his intelligence but I love all the members.

I'm gonna introduce BTS to my mom.
Wish me luck!
Edit: Jin is her favorite.
If this for real happened then this is so precious and cute 🥺💕
Tim Drake My daughter has been ARMY since 2014 and never shared much about BTS. I knew of them from her. When they were on The Voice this year I saw them for the first time and I was hooked! V’s vocals and the choreo are what attracted me, and I started watching their other MVs. Now, I’m an ARMY Mom!!!!! I love all seven of my boys and am so proud of them! I’ve been made fun of because of my love for BTS and their music, but I DON’T CARE! I went to see their movie Bring the Soul for my birthday and met a lot of ARMY there. I hope to go to a concert one day very soon.
every mom likes jin, every grandma likes jimin
m mom says bts is gay xD
@@minyoongi-xl7zr of course they are! Hahah, no but seriously that's no problem if they are, right? That would be even more awesome!! :'))
I....I'm kinda getting into bts and wanted to learn a little about them. Im not like a hard core fan....but hearing about rm....makes me like rlly mad. Hes not ugly, u can be masculine and wear makeup. You can love hiphop and still be an idol. Some people can be really ignorant huh?
Ik it's kinda late but if you want any help or recommendations let me know 😊
Welcome to our family dearn😊💜
I am new too people really hate on them like they have perfect skin how can you say it’s ugly
I started with just as a casual listener but ended up in a hardcore ARMY 😂and I'm proud of it💜
Damn, mad respect to all of them, namjoon collaborating with warren g though... they’re on their way to becoming legends
now i respect RM and SUGA even more for doing what they love even when people tell them they should not, i have nothing but love and support for this beautiful angels they deserve the world
I can't believe RM was regarded as ugly. I am from an European country and If I had to choose the most handsome guy from BTS (according to my taste), I would go for RM! Tall, interesting face features and intelligent eyes makes him attractive for our European standards :)
I've never listened to a single bts song, or was interested in the slightest, but this video got me to watch the whole thing
Welcome!!💜
So do i
AnimeNightwing33 B same ♥️
RM is so beautiful. People are just assholes because he doesn’t fit the normal standards of an “idol”. Not only is he beautiful but his heart is amazing too. I’m proud of him for staying strong through all the shit he gets
Suddenly fell in love with this group
They're a real humble group of individuals. There's a great introduction to them by Gadaursan as well.
What a beautiful comment. Thank you for taking the time❤
Totally, dude. Their recent United Nations speech sealed the deal for me. I'm a fan!
Honestly since I wrote this comment, I’ve downloaded many of their songs and stayed up all night for IDOL. I don’t speak Korean but BTS and Blackpink make me want to learn Korean. And since I basically only understand “you can’t stop me loving myself” IDOL is my go to song when I’m feeling down.
@@naterudamas3495 We are very glad you decided to give them a chance. You can always look up BTS' lyrics in youtube or look up lyric translations in websites, BTS' lyrics definitely shouldn't be missed. ❤
Jhope was part of the underground dance team Neuron. He won various local prizes for dance, including placing first in a national dance competition in 2008
RM has an IQ of 148, studied engineering. It is worth adding that if you have an IQ equal to 148, you're in the top 0.1% of the world population.
i can't believe i watched a half an hour video about a band i'm not even a fan but so much respect for these seven dudes
omg ur mind watch their documentary burn the stage too if u ever want to know more
bts elitist do you have a link for me?
Ana Carolina it’s available for TH-cam red users but I’m sure on places like dailymotion etc the episodes r there and hopefully with subtitles
bts elitist thanks, i'll check it out sometime, but i noticed you are a fan so can i ask you what song they were singing at 7:30?
and at 19:11 if it's not too much to ask
One of my favorite (sad) stories from BTS is when Suga got hit by a car (motorcycle?) while trying to make money on a delivery route. He told the other team members that he hurt his shoulder falling down the stairs in the dorm and didn't tell the staff/manager until the injury started getting worse because he was afraid they would kick him off the team.
I know that's so sad,i love him
Really?? I didn't know about this.. How do you know this?
So Suga still did part time job even when he was on trainee days??
Sur Poenya he talked about it in “Burn the Stage “ (?) Im pretty sure. If you google “Suga motorcycle accident” you should find the clip.
@@randomperson008 ok i'll check it.. thanks for your info 💜
I never heard of BTS until I was introduced to them and their music by my girlfriend: who happens to be A.R.M.Y. She got us tickets to their concert in Newark AND New York, and I have to say... I am now a fan!! I love their look, style, and talent! I love to watch them dance! They are also great role models. I love the messages they put out!!
Please watch bts form nobodies to legends 1 and 2 and bts hardships so that you'll know these boys from the bottom until theyre now ! :))
Woah slow down boy
next you need to watch bts from nobodies to legends part 1 and part 2, bts hardships and bts are just people. its about their journey from the bottom until they become right now.
I can't believe I'm here. But I'm here anyway. I'm starting to Stan.
Welcome! I know you'll enjoy the ride.
Welcome. You're here to stay, no regrets.
I've been an ARMY for a long time now but I still enjoy watching these videos to remind me why I love every single member of BTS with my whole entire heart.
If you're new to BTS, please remember BTS has SEVEN MEMBERS. Stan all seven of them, and appreciate and love every member.

Gabby Velasquez my bias is Taehyung but I love all of them equally 💓.You're not a true Army if you're only solo stan.
Im a 43 year old woman who's been listening to my culture's music my entire life ( r & b, gospel, reggae, hip hop, and the blues). But, with all of this phenomena going around this group and my daughter talking about it, I decided to check them out. And I must say, what handsome and talented young men they are. They so remind me of the groups of my mom's and my generations except, with a little more flair ( up tempo). And now, Im finding myself learning all about them and listening to the music. I must say that, they sound really good and wishes them much success.
Santeria if you have any questions, feel free to address them. we can help, no problem. take care
I wish you were my Mom
I wish my mother was like you.
You're a really cool mom ;)
@@sonitravels9666 : Thank you so much and Im sorry if Im late. But, Im a full fledge fan of them now. And RM is my bias. I plan to join the fan club membership when the corona clears.
@@-annie2010 : You have to excuse some of us, we grew up on old skool music and some of us have gotten stuck to that. But, I believe that, in order to understand each other's generations, its important to embrace the music of the past as well as the future. I believe that you have a great mother, its just her taste in music is alot different and today's music does suit her taste.
i went from hating bts and thinking they're overrated, and now i'm definitely obsessed. this video was a huge contribution to that, so thank you ♡

Same but now I’m a hardcore Army lmao
43 yr old from America, glad to see a lot of people from every age and nation feeling ARMY. Love this video! I wish it had been around when I started. I watched interesting videos, and Blood Sweat Tears / Black Swan made my jaw drop. One day I may see them live. I love their music, and they are a positive light our world needs.
Exactly! The guys are something unique
Im over 50. My 12 year daughter show them to me. And fell n love cause of their dancing, singing and they r some of the best acting gentlemen, manners. Oh my goodness their singing
I love how diverse Army is :D
Better late than never!
I'm just here because someone commented on carpool karaoke that this is a great video to start knowing who they are. I was really impressed 👌🤤
God bless you
And thanks for being so openminded
Yayyy!!!💜💜💜
@@Itserikaale is it too soon to pick a favorite because RM is 💥🔥🤤
lluvia ruiz martinez ikr!!?? Loll thats how it is in the beginning b/c u dont know who to pick so what i would do is choose each member and have them be my bias for one day of the week since there are 7 days of the week & 7 guys😂😂🤷♀️💜 but NOW KIM TAEHYUNG is for sure my bias & jungkook my bias wrecker (uhh & jhope) but i do love all the members. 💯❤️
@@Itserikaale I've watched like 15 videos about them and they are so interesting... they are so humble and really dont care about the fame... I'm a 1d fan but I guess a bts fan too now 🤷🏻♀️👌
