We all know that this isn’t the whole story, there are some things that they will never be able to tell their fans. No matter what you might say about them, they deserve respect and they deserve where they are today.
I hope in the near future they'll make documentaries about their career in English. A lot of people who recognize them now especially in Western hemisphere thinking that BTS got everybody support from the start, granted Kings of Kpop from day 1 by SK medias and public, which is that was not the case.
@@NurmaBPenough documentaries by ARMY that show it wasn't so. If you are interested in them, you will find out. If they did even more, people will jump them as whining and ungrateful. Some already do and they just told their story as it was, and there's even prove for that.
Been an army almost 7 years now and I know a good chunk of their backstory so this doesn’t surprise me at all. I’m actually glad they included this all so that new fans or people curious about them learn that they weren’t privileged, nor was their success overnight and inorganic. They deserve every award and every word of praise they’ve ever gotten.
и я всё это помню. Ребята ничего не скрывали, хотя что-то мы узнавали чуть позже. Но мы, фанаты, переживали в реальном времени: как так? почему так? что случилось? ну сколько ещё хейта? - до слёз!
You know what's crazy? I still remember when BTS debuted and the first thing I told myself was "wow, they're going to be big". I wasn't even a fan of them but they just had something to them that I knew was going to be successful. Oddly enough, I didn't know they struggled this much because for every comeback I thought they were well received and loved. Maybe because I was an Exo-L and wasn't keeping up with BTS all the time but I still thought they were doing good. It's so fucking crazy to think that my intuition was right back then
literally, same. i was an exo-l but i came across one of their music videos, and even though i didnt know them individually, i was thinking like.. wow this group is so talented and could be big one day. im still not a big fan, but i can recognize their talent and music.
I am very happy for them. I can not possibly think of the struggles they faced at such young ages, yet they stayed resilient and despite the haters, they still have a big influence over everyone. They make me want to work hard and achieve so much in life. I read somewhere that you should work hard so much to the point that when you are successful, bts front row concert tickets look really cheap to you.
honestly there were parts in the book that made me sad or angry that such young boys were forced to endure so much, but at the same time i find it very inspiring because there were so many times they could have disbanded or given up yet they didn’t. they had other idol groups bullying them for coming from a poor company and not having as many resources, they had kpop fandoms making literal hate campaigns against them, giving them black oceans, and accusing them of plagiarism just to ruin their careers, they had idols and the media publicly talking trash about them, they had multiple dts being targeted at them and their families, they people trying to break into their company and steal from them, they ahd award shows not wanting to broadcast their performances, etc. there was even one part in the book where jk talks about adults trying to get him to privately meet them in hotels during his debut days…adults trying to lure a literal CHILD in shady hotels!! like seriously why is barely anyone else talking about this?!?! everything that was mentioned in that book should be discussed but it’s like nobody gives af except for armys. and the reaction that bts received from kpop stans after the book dropped just proves that nobody in the k-pop community truly cares about bts or their mental health except for armys. bts went through so much sht and so many hardships throughout their career and yet they still came out on top and still remain the most humble artist in existence. though i wish they had name dropped more people because bullies don’t deserve to be protected, but we all know bts are nice people and they wouldn’t want anything bad to happen to anyone no matter how bad the person treated them. but tbh they really didn’t have to name drop anyone because their success speaks for itself and everything they’ve accomplished and will accomplish in the future is the best revenge to all the people that ever spoke down on or doubted them.
It's good for them to they have been doing it all along with all their different solo work, but this time it's more intense for them, most be both scarry and exciting for them though and a lots of work of course.
Thats why they are my number 1 role models they never gave up even when they were mocked, looked down etc they just kept working harder . their success is the fruit of that work . THEY REALLY DO DESERVE EVERY OUNCE OF IT.
Their journey was so hard, and we should respect them for it...... they were my first group, and I'm really thankful for it. I don't know how hard my life will have been without them and K-pop.... I will support them forever ❤❤❤❤
The book said more. I encourage anyone to read it. Is it surprising no bc I think most of us new what was going on but is sad yes. This book just confirmed it to many of us, some of us hope and pray it is not one of our favorite groups that ignore or look down on BTS but I don't think you should hold your favorite groups to that extent. I strongly blame the Kpop industry for creating that type of environment the same way I blame Hollywood. Different industry same bullshit
Its a beautiful book and an international bestseller, a great to read for any fan who wants to know the story of BTS who have come so far. BTS are the greatest success story. Everything they have achieved is admireable and awe-inspiring. They deserve the love, praise and support they receive from their fans. We love and support beloved Bangtan no matter what 💜🗺️
Not just BTS AS THE IDOL, when i in middle school 2014 i remember how its feel becoming an army and how they bullied me just because being fan of BTS. And now look at them they are known around the world, they are everywhere.
@@l0vet075 I dont speak for others in the fandom ,but if they do..we need cleansing from weird entitled fans..they grown ass men,they should date unapologetically and those who throw a fit then,they will be free to leave army...
I think everyone who's long time Army, or following their journey from the start, or even acknowledge how people in K-idol entertainment industry treat idols from non big3 companies, understand how hard this guys went thru. BTS were not the only one who went thru hardship and discrimination, but they're the one who make it to the top beyond expectation. A lot of promising groups and very talented idols don't make it.
I'm not a fan of BTS but they surely paved the way for kpop groups in western countries. I have a fear of going to other countries because of the language barrier but to go to another country with only 1 member that speaks fluent English and having to do interviews with a lot of interviewers all with different accents is a huge amount of pressure considering the fact that they were also representing the whole kpop industry. I also knew they weren't treated well by other idols in their recent years but I never knew it was that harsh. They truly went through a lot and I hope there comes a day when all the members can just relax without having to think about their fame nor fans, they deserve a break.
Remember when jung kook bought them burgers with his own money when he was a teen and they refused saying it was leftovers and being mean, he still greats them with respect to this day
I remember back to the days where the 6 members couldn't understand English and that time some people criticize them and only namjoon could understand them so instead he translating it into good comments so that other members don't have to worry and be sad about other people tell about them and it still tears me up.
BTS has suffered a lot. They are fighters because of the way they were treated back then as if they didn't exist in this world to being the biggest k pop group in the world. Love you BTS 💜💜
I'm really happy for the boys success and knowing about their struggles in their own words provides more insight on how deserving they are of their achievements thus far. But nosy part in me would like to know these idols that had mocked them previously.
The fight from early days army with bts was admirable to watch but nowadays as they got bigger with some over obsessive new fans are just tough to watch.
It pains me that things still haven't change when it was mention how seniors and juniors look down on them. It's still going on, if its not bts, then its other groups, like what bang chan said before about how some of this gen of young idols are big headed.
If your a new fan (army) it would be very hard to belive that bts uesed to struggle so much and considering how popular and famous they are now and they have their faces and names everywhere
It`s so disappointing to hear how arrogant some idols are and that the people who act nice and friendly for their fans are mocking and looking down to other idols backstage. This is why i always say: you never know an idol`s real personality when the cameras are off.
BTS truly deserves all the success and love…even now people have problems with them sharing their true story…maybe they feel called out…just bcoz they are the biggest act right now people almost don’t view them as humans with feelings..it’s so sad.
As a fan since 2014, I can't help but reflect on how far BTS has come. It's incredible to witness their remarkable success and how they've managed to make their mark on the world. I often wonder about those who may have underestimated or overlooked BTS in the past. It's possible that some of those idols or groups have faced challenges or have disbanded since then. Meanwhile, BTS has continued to soar to new heights, and their influence can be felt everywhere. It's truly gratifying to see their undeniable achievements and how they've proven themselves time and time again. Their journey serves as a powerful reminder that hard work, dedication, and genuine talent can lead to incredible outcomes. BTS' success is undoubtedly a testament to their determination and a heartfelt reminder of the impact they've had on their fans and the industry as a whole.
I remember being an baby army back in the day when they weren't popular. Viciously defending them online from other K pop stans, even chewing out other rude army for being disrespectful to members. Does anyone else remember the days when J hope and Jin were constantly disrespected? I am so happy they've come so far and reached heights even they weren't sure they would reach. It warms my heart.
And I think that explains on why the members in turn of becoming senior always respects the Juniors they learn to be humble at all times they dont want the Juniors to feel what they've been through when they were just Juniors then.
I remember BTS talking about not having Seniors to advise them, people who they could talk to. That's why I think J-Hope and Suga are mindful of TXT members.
BTS is the most talented and hardwoking K-pop group and they really deserve all the fame and success they have. But unfortunately, a lot of people still hate them for no reason and always trying to bring them down. I'm so proud of them and I will always support them 💜
I'm not disagreeing that they are talented and hardworking, but who the most talented and hardworking group is is subjective tbh, there are many groups out there that have the same qualities and talents imo, no hate though.
@@celiarose815 I'm not saying that and neither did you in your original comment. I'm once again not denying that they are talented and hardworking, but so are many other groups and while for you and other armys they might be the most talented and hardworking, they won't be for others and neither side is in the wrong or right as it is subjective and not a fact.
I am still so grateful that they didn't give up. And now I am waiting for them to come together again . And I will always be thankful to BTS to help me know about Kpop and K culture
I will forever love my Bangtan boys 🖤 Their journey will always be something incredibly special! So thankful for knowing them and their story as I now stan Ateez, who are currently going through their similar small company struggles. It gives me hope they too will be successful in their own right. Proud armytiny 🥹
BTS had so many hardships but they still managed to stay up on their feet to support their fans and I’m very grateful to be called an army and to be standing behind all seven of our boys ❤😢
I ❤️BTS They seem godsend how they have affected the world 🌎 needing much love and positivity ❤️🥰❤️. I hope one day army can let go of them. To enjoy dating, experience of falling in love, marriage and kids without army allowing their partners and children feeling the pressure of being mobbed by fans.We owe this to them for all they have given us ❤️🥰❤️
As a fan since 2014, I've witnessed BTS's incredible journey, and it's truly remarkable to see where they stand now. It's fascinating to think about those who may have underestimated them in the past. While some might have disbanded or faded away, BTS has risen to unprecedented heights with their immense success. It's undeniably satisfying to see how their hard work and talent have proven their doubters wrong, and they've become a global phenomenon that can't be ignored. It's like a powerful reminder that success is the best response to those who once doubted them.
.They said all this on lives as well, and other idols who were friendly with them said it as well.. I'm glad that at least there was some who stood with them.
@@binitakhatowal8140 a orange caramel member said how hardworking they are in her youtube channel comments when on of the comment mocking bts ,, txt members also said that
So idols literally bully each other and mock other groups!! These idols who get easy success due to their company media play really act so high. Disgusting how Hybe is now being open and friendly to all of them. The times Jyp and SM tried to sabotage bighit is countless. Kakao bolstered Lesserafim.
@@OblivionZXZ jyp helped them?? how ? jyp never helped them he just never tried to sabotage bts like sm & yg and until oncam only got7 members are friends not twice and we twice members respects them alot
@@satyachowdary5291 jyp and big hit guy are friends and worked under JYPE until 2005, jyp even let him manage 2AM. So it's safe to assume he "COULD" have helped them off record many times and vice versa, as friends often do. If that wasn't the case why would he let Ryujin and Yuna feature in BTS video???
@@OblivionZXZ honey bangpd is the main producer jyp offcourse they comanaged 2am bcz bangpd just started bighit along with being main producer and ,, you don't know whether he helped or not ,, don't forget sm & yg are against bighit and jyp has good relation with sm & yg too ,,, about sending trainees yuna & ryunjin apeared on ly highlight in 2016-2017 when bts started raising higher ,, jyp didn't help them jyp just don't sabotage them which is also a help too
Let's all be honest we all knew that it wasn't all flowers for them. We just wanted to overlook the hardships they faced for "the positive influence " I'm sure there are more groups who are facing the same thing or have faced the hardships
No one said that it's just them who experienced these. There's a lot of interest becuase they conquered those challenges and literally became a worldwide sensation. It's the classic underdog story, rising to the top. And I'm glad they're using their platform to expose these types of hardships that other idols may be experiencing.
positive influence how can you know it was postivie without anything negative ,,, they speak up about their struggles bcz they want others to not to give up nomatter how much they suffered
It was not easy for them they worked so hard for them the people who mocked them now should be ashamed bcz bts paved the way they deserve all the love im so happy and proud of them they inspired so many people and bcz of fans love they did not disbanded and keep going forward and still going no one bring them down
You gentlemen have each other for emotional support right. The right person will come along when they are supposed to. Be careful not to fall into a trap with someone who just wants to have you spend money on her and always wants to monopolize your feelings and time. You deserve to be loved and cared for just for you not for whatever material things you can provide. After a while the material things aren’t enough and they want more. This goes on until you have no more YOU to give leaving you torn and depleted. I pray this will not happen to any of you. I appreciate y’all and your music. I can’t understand the lyrics but I can appreciate and understand the feelings etc. behind that music. God bless and prosper you each one. Love you.
Some of the things were shocking and some of the things felt like we grew in that situation with them. I smiled at thier term "make it big" but is hurt in what they had to face even when they made it big. The struggle never left them. I just hope in chapter 2, the boys are able to rest well, be well and do well. And slap at the people who refused beilive in them. They trauma bonded themsleves into success, what a rare case of fate
i used to be a bts fan long ago and i am reading the book bc it just took my interest and if i would have known what these literal boys have had to go through back then (i think all the fans at the time) i would have been so shocked. i am not even kidding. as i said bts did in fact grow old on me but every someone out there should really respect them. i really hope for them to get a lot of time for themselves after their military service and ofc all the best:))
I’m constantly surprised these big groups coming to the US don’t have professional translators with them doing real time translation in their ears. They make enough money to certainly have them on staff, and it’s a huge miss to not have them.
I think this is the wrong approach. Not BTS should have provided the interpreter, but the show/host in which they were invited. For me as a non-native english speaker, it is always surprising with how much naturalness we are expected to speak fluent English and to respond immediately to every dialect. I can well put myself in the situation of RM's first interview. Hats off for the patience and kindness he showed in such situations.
The guest shouldn't have to do that it's the host responsibility to see to that. Just like the BBC did here in the UK they made sure they had an Interpreter for BTS members when they interviewed them. Oh yes Translator is the term used for the written word, Interpreter is for the spoken word don't ask me why the difference I'm not sure but I'm going to look at the root or each term to try and discover why. Sorry I like 'words'.
They still have the right to privacy in some aspects of their lives. They came together as a group,members and grew together as brothers. That's why they are kpops number 1 group 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I think most ARMY already knew of the struggles they went through and how proud we are they persisted. I wonder who those idols were that looked down on them because I definitely wouldn’t want to support anyone that treated the boys that way. The fact that they are as successful as they are is a testament to their talent, hard work and dedication to their music and craft.
I wasn't easy for jungkook to become this person today but now he has us he that many things to achieve if u ae see this jungkook i love you and i belive in you
Not at all. Get it boys. May you keep being successful in the future. I know they were treated horribly early in their career, yet they are still humble and respectful to not name those people.
All of their difficulties were the reason why I decided to support them in the first place. They were so talented and had because of the industry itself. I'm glad they made it and have manage to keep their sanity for the most part. They are really impressive.
this highlighted alot honestly, we are so used to seeing bts looking happy and on top of the world but to know so many people looked down on them and for so long. Like blood sweat and tears is my fav song from them and they were definitely popping then but they didnt have a proper place to rehearse?!! What is this foolishness. I think people who come from small lables get no respect because i heard ateez have the same problem. If they want to retire i support it 100%, theyve given us so much good music and laughs that i think its time for them to finally rest and settle down.
Only if they want to it's up to them but somehow I don't see them completely removing themselves from creating if not preforming. Writers never stop writing and as Martha Graham said ' A Dancer dies twice, once when they stop dancing and this the most painful death.'. I've never stopped as a musician and vocalist myself I've been going up on stage as part of a band for over 40years. If it's in your blood you can't be still,, you'll want to keep doing what you love unless you are unable to do it. A person career in the industry doesn't have to finish after 10years there's no rule that says sorry you're not allowed to make music anymore.
Now many people are hating and comparing with 4th generation groups but bishes look how they worked hard and made the company big not a big company making a group famous
Karma is real look at BTS and where they stand in kpop history better yet Around the world. A big thank to the idols that mocked BTS they proved to be the biggest and the best. Thank you BTS you guys are a gift from God. 🙏AMEN🙏
The thing that frustrated me about the interviews in the West, was none of it was run by them beforehand. My job was to interview musicians, mainly from Japan and Korea, and we always gave them the questions a day or more in advance. This was so they could look them over and could say which questions they could/couldn't/didn't want to answer, and work together to make answers that expressed their feelings well and made it so everyone knew what was going on and could learn how to answer for themselves if they wanted to. Especially with a live interview! It makes me angry that BH didn't insist on this. It's normal practice for any interview, especially with a language and cultural barrier. And WHY did no one do any research before they interviewed them?? That's fricken interviewer 101! And the accent thing. America has one of the widest range of dialects and accents in the world, so of course we don't all speak the same. I don't know why they thought 11 people with different accents would be okay. My brother is a native Japanese speaker, but speaks English really well. He told me he still has to have one of his friends he practiced English with, or me with him at interviews and fan meets because if someone had a southern accent for example, he couldn't understand it as well as he could us. Yeah, a lot about their Western interviews pissed me off. LOL None of it was them directly though, just BH and almost every single person who interviewed them...
To be honest I am not suprised, I already knew that this would happen to a high thriving band group from Korea, they work very hard and are well respected but tbh they are like other k pop artists back in the day when they were having difficult times, BTS and k pop idols always struggle so this was expected.
I was shocked by the true meaning of the song, FAKE LOVE. They actually wrote that about their relationship with ARMY. This is why the "MASKs" Are used during the performances. They felt as though we wouldn't love them as their true selves. Guess they can't hear us squealing while watching their variety shows.
I wasn't suprised by any of things I'd read in the book but some of them made me extremely angry and some had me in tears. Having seen those American interviews it was pretty plain they were torture. I'm don't know how they put up with most of them and the ways they were treated even when on the 'Red Carpet' than one had me spitting fire. We already knew the sort of things they'd come up against in their own country and I knew what we already knew was just the tip of the iceberg.
Now I wanna see the mockers😂😂.......GOD!!! only throws obstacles on those who he knows can face it with resilience and strength......💜💜💜💜💜🫰🫰 fighting💜💜
Jungkook must have felt closet to Jimin when he first joined the company because they r from the same home town.They don't seem to have a promblem with English now even if they can't understand their English have gotten better now RM isn't the only in the group that can speak English they all can excpt his the only 1that's fluent
Fun fact jk didn't get along with jimin at 1st lol he was the closest to jin n V but now jk n jimin are the cutest duo I'm glad the friendship evolved soo much 💓
despite after releasing their book, bts would always have some unsaid words left to say which they would be never able to speak out loud... we all know how hybe did dirty interplay in V's part in the autobiography [ Beyond The Story : 10 year record of BTS ] we can just love them from afar. EDIT : We never know, that if in the future we might be able to listen their unsaid words in their songs.
This as a fan from 2013 there were things in here that was already shown but also new things. Of course they can’t always say everything to us because there will always be a line but they deserve all the respect. They have done so much.
Do you know why BTS is big?! It's because we knew the treatment they were getting and guess what a bunch of people wanted to protect BTS and didn't want BTS to lose themselves and those bunch of people are called ARMY💜
when you think about how they became a group its really an awesome work of God in their life for someone like v that was never planning on auditioning or jhope that just wanted to be a dancer or even jungkook that out of all the companies that gave their card he chose a small company on the verge of bankrupcy but they all were somehow convinced to do something they seemingly had no intrest in just has GOD written all over it and even the point in the book where suga is like they where all thinking "lets quit" but couldnt bring themselves to say it something must have been holding them back they may have wanted to say it but they just couldnt get the words out and just SAY it 'you know what you want just freaking say it to them' but they couldnt, all it would have taken is just one person saying those two words and it would have been over they would have closed up shop and never opened it again but they didnt say it,once again this has GOD wrritten all over it God really works in mysterious ways
They want these idols to get “sponsors”. And think of it as the US casting couch. Amongst other things…. I’m surprised their parents would let them go at like 13 years old or whatever.
Wow. This is Highly Inspiring What They Had To Endure. You just have some cruel people and unfortunate experiences sometimes. AT THE SAME TIME, BTS stayed driven and steadfast......and LOOK AT THEM NOW!!! This is a powerful lesson on how to NOT EVER Give Up ON YOURSELF!!! Infinite Love To BTS. Thanks For Sharing.
We all know that this isn’t the whole story, there are some things that they will never be able to tell their fans. No matter what you might say about them, they deserve respect and they deserve where they are today.
I hope in the near future they'll make documentaries about their career in English.

I've had to put it down multiple times because I need a break to process.
I am not an Army. But I am so proud of them seeing them soaring this high despite all the mocking and mistreatment. I hope they keep on soaring. ❤
i feel so sad that they had to go through this all but also proud that they made it this far
That’s why I’m so glad about their solo activities. They not only finally get a break, but they get to express themselves more individually
It's good for them to they have been doing it all along with all their different solo work, but this time it's more intense for them, most be both scarry and exciting for them though and a lots of work of course.
Thats why they are my number 1 role models they never gave up even when they were mocked, looked down etc they just kept working harder . their success is the fruit of that work . THEY REALLY DO DESERVE EVERY OUNCE OF IT.
I will never forget Namjoon at the last dinner breaking down about the pressure and just wanting to take a step back. These 7 have given us so much 💜
Their journey was so hard, and we should respect them for it...... they were my first group, and I'm really thankful for it. I don't know how hard my life will have been without them and K-pop.... I will support them forever ❤❤❤❤

@l0vet075 they'll just harass whoever the boys end up dating 😅
@@l0vet075 I dont speak for others in the fandom ,but if they do..we need cleansing from weird entitled fans..they grown ass men,they should date unapologetically and those who throw a fit then,they will be free to leave army...
Congrats to them!!

Thanks for appreciating 💜
I think everyone who's long time Army, or following their journey from the start, or even acknowledge how people in K-idol entertainment industry treat idols from non big3 companies, understand how hard this guys went thru.
BTS were not the only one who went thru hardship and discrimination, but they're the one who make it to the top beyond expectation. A lot of promising groups and very talented idols don't make it.
I'm not a fan of BTS but they surely paved the way for kpop groups in western countries. I have a fear of going to other countries because of the language barrier but to go to another country with only 1 member that speaks fluent English and having to do interviews with a lot of interviewers all with different accents is a huge amount of pressure considering the fact that they were also representing the whole kpop industry. I also knew they weren't treated well by other idols in their recent years but I never knew it was that harsh. They truly went through a lot and I hope there comes a day when all the members can just relax without having to think about their fame nor fans, they deserve a break.
They are so strong and amazing set of people, with an amazing team. Kudos to them!
Jungkooks story has me thinking of all this little girls, boys debuting it's just weird, creepy and sad from Being shipped, sexualized ect
Right… :(
Remember when jung kook bought them burgers with his own money when he was a teen and they refused saying it was leftovers and being mean, he still greats them with respect to this day
Oh I remember watching that episode!
Am so proud of them so proud 🫶💜
I’m not an Army but I have immense respect for BTS! 🙇🏻♀️
They all work so hard! I'm so proud of them🎉
I remember back to the days where the 6 members couldn't understand English and that time some people criticize them and only namjoon could understand them so instead he translating it into good comments so that other members don't have to worry and be sad about other people tell about them and it still tears me up.
BTS has suffered a lot. They are fighters because of the way they were treated back then as if they didn't exist in this world to being the biggest k pop group in the world. Love you BTS 💜💜
I am so glad they didn’t give up . They deserve the success ❤
I'm really happy for the boys success and knowing about their struggles in their own words provides more insight on how deserving they are of their achievements thus far. But nosy part in me would like to know these idols that had mocked them previously.
The fight from early days army with bts was admirable to watch but nowadays as they got bigger with some over obsessive new fans are just tough to watch.
It pains me that things still haven't change when it was mention how seniors and juniors look down on them. It's still going on, if its not bts, then its other groups, like what bang chan said before about how some of this gen of young idols are big headed.
Bts dropped one book thats shook the entire K-pop industry.
They deserve even more credit than they're getting by at least 200%.
If your a new fan (army) it would be very hard to belive that bts uesed to struggle so much and considering how popular and famous they are now and they have their faces and names everywhere
BTS did a great job in making themselves a very famous and successful kpop boy band.period.🙂
It`s so disappointing to hear how arrogant some idols are and that the people who act nice and friendly for their fans are mocking and looking down to other idols backstage. This is why i always say: you never know an idol`s real personality when the cameras are off.
BTS truly deserves all the success and love…even now people have problems with them sharing their true story…maybe they feel called out…just bcoz they are the biggest act right now people almost don’t view them as humans with feelings..it’s so sad.
My respect for them only increases ❤
As a fan since 2014, I can't help but reflect on how far BTS has come. It's incredible to witness their remarkable success and how they've managed to make their mark on the world. I often wonder about those who may have underestimated or overlooked BTS in the past. It's possible that some of those idols or groups have faced challenges or have disbanded since then. Meanwhile, BTS has continued to soar to new heights, and their influence can be felt everywhere. It's truly gratifying to see their undeniable achievements and how they've proven themselves time and time again. Their journey serves as a powerful reminder that hard work, dedication, and genuine talent can lead to incredible outcomes. BTS' success is undoubtedly a testament to their determination and a heartfelt reminder of the impact they've had on their fans and the industry as a whole.
I feel so sad. I’ve discovered BTS recently and was blown away. And then I saw all the hate and just don’t understand it. Wish them all the best
I remember being an baby army back in the day when they weren't popular. Viciously defending them online from other K pop stans, even chewing out other rude army for being disrespectful to members. Does anyone else remember the days when J hope and Jin were constantly disrespected? I am so happy they've come so far and reached heights even they weren't sure they would reach. It warms my heart.
i m reading it currently on 200 smtg page.....it is so good to know them ......
Just speechless i am after knowing this. Our boys deserve good and of course the pure love from Army. Keep shining 🌟
Not surprised a all but i am glad that they didn't disband thanks you BTS 💜💜💜💜💜💜 for your hard work and deuction and love for music 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Bts webt through so much ...they struggled much , they totally deserve their success
All those sleepless nights, the blood sweat and tears, paid off!
Now, they're so big that no one can look down on them.
Borahae💜
And I think that explains on why the members in turn of becoming senior always respects the Juniors they learn to be humble at all times they dont want the Juniors to feel what they've been through when they were just Juniors then.
I remember BTS talking about not having Seniors to advise them, people who they could talk to. That's why I think J-Hope and Suga are mindful of TXT members.
This are the reasons why bts is unique they start from scratch to stardom their hardwork make fans love them
Success is the Biggest Revenge ❤ Thank You BTS for all your hardwork. You proved yourself 💜💜💜
BTS is the most talented and hardwoking K-pop group and they really deserve all the fame and success they have. But unfortunately, a lot of people still hate them for no reason and always trying to bring them down. I'm so proud of them and I will always support them 💜
I'm not disagreeing that they are talented and hardworking, but who the most talented and hardworking group is is subjective tbh, there are many groups out there that have the same qualities and talents imo, no hate though.
@@Kalakeiko but they are the most special because they're the reason K-pop became famous all over the world and no one can deny it
@@celiarose815then u Should thank Sm first😅...Boa made kpop popular first away before bts debuted....just saying the true fact.
@@Kalakeikoagree with u...now stans think the more popular u are , the more talented u r....like EXo, Btob, Seventeen doesn't exist 😂😂😅
@@celiarose815 I'm not saying that and neither did you in your original comment.
I'm once again not denying that they are talented and hardworking, but so are many other groups and while for you and other armys they might be the most talented and hardworking, they won't be for others and neither side is in the wrong or right as it is subjective and not a fact.
I am still so grateful that they didn't give up. And now I am waiting for them to come together again .
And I will always be thankful to BTS to help me know about Kpop and K culture
bts really reflects on how those who are kind always get what they deserve
Nobody can ever say that BTS did not pay their dues. That spot on the top was earned and well-deserved.
I will forever love my Bangtan boys 🖤 Their journey will always be something incredibly special! So thankful for knowing them and their story as I now stan Ateez, who are currently going through their similar small company struggles. It gives me hope they too will be successful in their own right. Proud armytiny 🥹
BTS had so many hardships but they still managed to stay up on their feet to support their fans and I’m very grateful to be called an army
and to be standing behind all seven of our boys ❤😢
I ❤️BTS They seem godsend how they have affected the world 🌎 needing much love and positivity ❤️🥰❤️. I hope one day army can let go of them. To enjoy dating, experience of falling in love, marriage and kids without army allowing their partners and children feeling the pressure of being mobbed by fans.We owe this to them for all they have given us ❤️🥰❤️
They are so strong and brave without giving up
As a fan since 2014, I've witnessed BTS's incredible journey, and it's truly remarkable to see where they stand now. It's fascinating to think about those who may have underestimated them in the past. While some might have disbanded or faded away, BTS has risen to unprecedented heights with their immense success. It's undeniably satisfying to see how their hard work and talent have proven their doubters wrong, and they've become a global phenomenon that can't be ignored. It's like a powerful reminder that success is the best response to those who once doubted them.
Not liking your own song is pretty understandable, lots of musicians don’t like a song or two they have
They didn't like the original one Bang PD came up with, not the current DNA.
they like the song they just didn't liked the melody so they changed the melody
.They said all this on lives as well, and other idols who were friendly with them said it as well.. I'm glad that at least there was some who stood with them.
Can you tell me which other idols said ?
@@binitakhatowal8140 a orange caramel member said how hardworking they are in her youtube channel comments when on of the comment mocking bts ,, txt members also said that
So idols literally bully each other and mock other groups!! These idols who get easy success due to their company media play really act so high. Disgusting how Hybe is now being open and friendly to all of them. The times Jyp and SM tried to sabotage bighit is countless. Kakao bolstered Lesserafim.
Not jyp but yg, jyp helped them a lot, and TWICE and GOT7 were friends with them.
@@OblivionZXZ jyp helped them?? how ? jyp never helped them he just never tried to sabotage bts like sm & yg and until oncam only got7 members are friends not twice and we twice members respects them alot
@@satyachowdary5291 jyp and big hit guy are friends and worked under JYPE until 2005, jyp even let him manage 2AM. So it's safe to assume he "COULD" have helped them off record many times and vice versa, as friends often do.
If that wasn't the case why would he let Ryujin and Yuna feature in BTS video???
@@OblivionZXZ honey bangpd is the main producer jyp offcourse they comanaged 2am bcz bangpd just started bighit along with being main producer and ,, you don't know whether he helped or not ,, don't forget sm & yg are against bighit and jyp has good relation with sm & yg too ,,, about sending trainees yuna & ryunjin apeared on ly highlight in 2016-2017 when bts started raising higher ,, jyp didn't help them jyp just don't sabotage them which is also a help too
Let's all be honest we all knew that it wasn't all flowers for them. We just wanted to overlook the hardships they faced for "the positive influence " I'm sure there are more groups who are facing the same thing or have faced the hardships
No one said that it's just them who experienced these. There's a lot of interest becuase they conquered those challenges and literally became a worldwide sensation. It's the classic underdog story, rising to the top. And I'm glad they're using their platform to expose these types of hardships that other idols may be experiencing.
positive influence how can you know it was postivie without anything negative ,,, they speak up about their struggles bcz they want others to not to give up nomatter how much they suffered
Hard work pays off
It was not easy for them they worked so hard for them the people who mocked them now should be ashamed bcz bts paved the way they deserve all the love im so happy and proud of them they inspired so many people and bcz of fans love they did not disbanded and keep going forward and still going no one bring them down
And all these things are still happening to musicians every where , it’s terrible how these companies treat their young musicians
You gentlemen have each other for emotional support right. The right person will come along when they are supposed to. Be careful not to fall into a trap with someone who just wants to have you spend money on her and always wants to monopolize your feelings and time. You deserve to be loved and cared for just for you not for whatever material things you can provide. After a while the material things aren’t enough and they want more. This goes on until you have no more YOU to give leaving you torn and depleted. I pray this will not happen to any of you. I appreciate y’all and your music. I can’t understand the lyrics but I can appreciate and understand the feelings etc. behind that music. God bless and prosper you each one. Love you.
Some of the things were shocking and some of the things felt like we grew in that situation with them. I smiled at thier term "make it big" but is hurt in what they had to face even when they made it big. The struggle never left them. I just hope in chapter 2, the boys are able to rest well, be well and do well. And slap at the people who refused beilive in them. They trauma bonded themsleves into success, what a rare case of fate
i used to be a bts fan long ago and i am reading the book bc it just took my interest and if i would have known what these literal boys have had to go through back then (i think all the fans at the time) i would have been so shocked. i am not even kidding. as i said bts did in fact grow old on me but every someone out there should really respect them. i really hope for them to get a lot of time for themselves after their military service and ofc all the best:))
it makes me happy that you have memories to look back on as a BTS fan!
Even though they joined on different reasons it was destiny
I’m constantly surprised these big groups coming to the US don’t have professional translators with them doing real time translation in their ears. They make enough money to certainly have them on staff, and it’s a huge miss to not have them.
I think this is the wrong approach. Not BTS should have provided the interpreter, but the show/host in which they were invited. For me as a non-native english speaker, it is always surprising with how much naturalness we are expected to speak fluent English and to respond immediately to every dialect. I can well put myself in the situation of RM's first interview. Hats off for the patience and kindness he showed in such situations.
The guest shouldn't have to do that it's the host responsibility to see to that. Just like the BBC did here in the UK they made sure they had an Interpreter for BTS members when they interviewed them. Oh yes Translator is the term used for the written word, Interpreter is for the spoken word don't ask me why the difference I'm not sure but I'm going to look at the root or each term to try and discover why. Sorry I like 'words'.
They still have the right to privacy in some aspects of their lives.
They came together as a group,members and grew together as brothers. That's why they are kpops number 1 group 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
nah to be honest i have beef with any gen3 bg now, they’re better than me i would have done a name drop and a check list for army 💀💀💀
I don’t stan any of the other 3rd Gen bgs, but all I’ll say is that it for sure wasn’t Exo (they’re literally all friends)
I am literally was 10 years but now i am 24 but BTS IS THE BEST GROUP EVER I SUPPORT THEM IN ANYTHING 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
I think most ARMY already knew of the struggles they went through and how proud we are they persisted. I wonder who those idols were that looked down on them because I definitely wouldn’t want to support anyone that treated the boys that way. The fact that they are as successful as they are is a testament to their talent, hard work and dedication to their music and craft.
I wasn't easy for jungkook to become this person today but now he has us he that many things to achieve if u ae see this jungkook i love you and i belive in you
Not at all. Get it boys. May you keep being successful in the future. I know they were treated horribly early in their career, yet they are still humble and respectful to not name those people.
Not just in their early career, sadly it's still gong on.
All of their difficulties were the reason why I decided to support them in the first place. They were so talented and had because of the industry itself. I'm glad they made it and have manage to keep their sanity for the most part. They are really impressive.
i wonder how those idols feel now that bts is one if the biggest groups in history💀💀
u mean biggest Group??
@@twiceinmillion aren't they one of the most popular groups I'm history?
They are crying fr
@@vvs_mydimondsmost popular group ... and also the most popular artists after Michael Jackson and Justin biber in history
I still cry about those two mcs mocking JK
this highlighted alot honestly, we are so used to seeing bts looking happy and on top of the world but to know so many people looked down on them and for so long. Like blood sweat and tears is my fav song from them and they were definitely popping then but they didnt have a proper place to rehearse?!! What is this foolishness. I think people who come from small lables get no respect because i heard ateez have the same problem. If they want to retire i support it 100%, theyve given us so much good music and laughs that i think its time for them to finally rest and settle down.
Only if they want to it's up to them but somehow I don't see them completely removing themselves from creating if not preforming. Writers never stop writing and as Martha Graham said ' A Dancer dies twice, once when they stop dancing and this the most painful death.'. I've never stopped as a musician and vocalist myself I've been going up on stage as part of a band for over 40years. If it's in your blood you can't be still,, you'll want to keep doing what you love unless you are unable to do it. A person career in the industry doesn't have to finish after 10years there's no rule that says sorry you're not allowed to make music anymore.
Proud of bts💜
Now many people are hating and comparing with 4th generation groups but bishes look how they worked hard and made the company big not a big company making a group famous
I admire Namjoon even more now
Karma is real look at BTS and where they stand in kpop history better yet Around the world. A big thank to the idols that mocked BTS they proved to be the biggest and the best. Thank you BTS you guys are a gift from God. 🙏AMEN🙏
The thing that frustrated me about the interviews in the West, was none of it was run by them beforehand. My job was to interview musicians, mainly from Japan and Korea, and we always gave them the questions a day or more in advance. This was so they could look them over and could say which questions they could/couldn't/didn't want to answer, and work together to make answers that expressed their feelings well and made it so everyone knew what was going on and could learn how to answer for themselves if they wanted to. Especially with a live interview! It makes me angry that BH didn't insist on this. It's normal practice for any interview, especially with a language and cultural barrier. And WHY did no one do any research before they interviewed them?? That's fricken interviewer 101! And the accent thing. America has one of the widest range of dialects and accents in the world, so of course we don't all speak the same. I don't know why they thought 11 people with different accents would be okay. My brother is a native Japanese speaker, but speaks English really well. He told me he still has to have one of his friends he practiced English with, or me with him at interviews and fan meets because if someone had a southern accent for example, he couldn't understand it as well as he could us. Yeah, a lot about their Western interviews pissed me off. LOL None of it was them directly though, just BH and almost every single person who interviewed them...
To be honest I am not suprised, I already knew that this would happen to a high thriving band group from Korea, they work very hard and are well respected but tbh they are like other k pop artists back in the day when they were having difficult times, BTS and k pop idols always struggle so this was expected.
They went through alottt!!!
I was shocked by the true meaning of the song, FAKE LOVE. They actually wrote that about their relationship with ARMY. This is why the "MASKs" Are used during the performances. They felt as though we wouldn't love them as their true selves. Guess they can't hear us squealing while watching their variety shows.
I wasn't suprised by any of things I'd read in the book but some of them made me extremely angry and some had me in tears. Having seen those American interviews it was pretty plain they were torture. I'm don't know how they put up with most of them and the ways they were treated even when on the 'Red Carpet' than one had me spitting fire. We already knew the sort of things they'd come up against in their own country and I knew what we already knew was just the tip of the iceberg.
Now I wanna see the mockers😂😂.......GOD!!! only throws obstacles on those who he knows can face it with resilience and strength......💜💜💜💜💜🫰🫰 fighting💜💜
Jungkook must have felt closet to Jimin when he first joined the company because they r from the same home town.They don't seem to have a promblem with English now even if they can't understand their English have gotten better now RM isn't the only in the group that can speak English they all can excpt his the only 1that's fluent
Fun fact jk didn't get along with jimin at 1st lol he was the closest to jin n V but now jk n jimin are the cutest duo I'm glad the friendship evolved soo much 💓
Look at them now y'all 💜
despite after releasing their book, bts would always have some unsaid words left to say which they would be never able to speak out loud... we all know how hybe did dirty interplay in V's part in the autobiography [ Beyond The Story : 10 year record of BTS ]
we can just love them from afar.
EDIT : We never know, that if in the future we might be able to listen their unsaid words in their songs.
This as a fan from 2013 there were things in here that was already shown but also new things. Of course they can’t always say everything to us because there will always be a line but they deserve all the respect. They have done so much.
Do you know why BTS is big?! It's because we knew the treatment they were getting and guess what a bunch of people wanted to protect BTS and didn't want BTS to lose themselves and those bunch of people are called ARMY💜
when you think about how they became a group its really an awesome work of God in their life for someone like v that was never planning on auditioning or jhope that just wanted to be a dancer or even jungkook that out of all the companies that gave their card he chose a small company on the verge of bankrupcy but they all were somehow convinced to do something they seemingly had no intrest in just has GOD written all over it and even the point in the book where suga is like they where all thinking "lets quit" but couldnt bring themselves to say it something must have been holding them back they may have wanted to say it but they just couldnt get the words out and just SAY it 'you know what you want just freaking say it to them' but they couldnt, all it would have taken is just one person saying those two words and it would have been over they would have closed up shop and never opened it again but they didnt say it,once again this has GOD wrritten all over it God really works in mysterious ways
They want these idols to get “sponsors”. And think of it as the US casting couch. Amongst other things…. I’m surprised their parents would let them go at like 13 years old or whatever.
4:24 Bang Chan from Stray Kids definitely would be content with that :) Greetings are important for him as well
Wow. This is Highly Inspiring What They Had To Endure. You just have some cruel people and unfortunate experiences sometimes. AT THE SAME TIME, BTS stayed driven and steadfast......and LOOK AT THEM NOW!!! This is a powerful lesson on how to NOT EVER Give Up ON YOURSELF!!! Infinite Love To BTS. Thanks For Sharing.
BTS are truely role models for the younger generation!!!
