Them: " I hope they don't switch their hair colors too much."
Suga: " honey you've got a storm coming."
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Twitter goes crazy on their hair color alone...lol!!!!
“They all have slightly different hair colors. I hope that they don’t switch around with that too much”
Me: laughs in BTS 😂
Me ......... oh don’t worry everything will be fine 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 laughs in army’s nightmare.
Oh this poor souls 😂 all I could think of is V switching hair colors like, 6-8 times in a short span of time... was it just last year? Either early last year or late 2018 (sorry, bad memory)
They all have black hair rn. Poor baby armys...
When I heard that I laughed hysterically😂😂😂
We are trying to get their names down soon haha. But it is difficult. We will get there😉😊😎
BTS are not your normal boyband they are diverse and talented they can actually do everything..
I guess 😍
@@stufr.reacts its not i guess they CAN do everything
STUFR & More they have done concepts for comebacks that I don’t even think of lol.
Blood Sweat and Tears is actually a song about "losing innocence"
Btw. I love your reaction 💜
Thanks so much. We loved our first BTS song and MV soooo much 🤩😍
Welp I lost mine ever since I became an ARMY
the MV is based on Hermann Hesse’s novel “Demian,”. The German text you read was part of the book
No, the German text isn't from "Demian". The quote above the mirror is from Nietzsche's "Also Sprach Zarathustra". The concept of the whole MV is derived from "Demian" (and other works of art), but the German text is not to be found in that book.
However, the English text RM reads at the beginning of the interlude ("He, too, was a tempter ...") comes from an English translation of "Demian".
###
The German quote was Nietzsche. The organ music in the interlude was Pistorius. The opening painting was "Fall of the Rebel Angels" by Peter Bruegel the Elder. The painting behind the boys in the second scene is 'The Lament for Icarus' by Herbert James Draper . You saw an acted scene in the video wherein member Jungkook is suspended midair like a freeze frame of falling back toward earth with feathers floating in the air. This dramatization was Icarus his feathers molting as he fell. You also see a version of the "Pieta" by Michelangelo, but not an exact replica. Note how this scene of Mary with crucified Jesus is exploded after member Jin kisses the statue now bearing the wings of a fallen angel. Not sure. but I believe the opening organ music might be J. S. Bach.
BTS's unique popularity rests not just in showmanship but meaning and messaging. This work has strong relationship to Hermann Hesse's book "Demian" as do a number of their works during this period. BTS is a rabbit hole which some males are fearful of entering due to perceived lack of machismo. But, for those with courage to explore, they will find there are times BTS can be as hard as anyone in Western music, particularly their straight rap performances. Listeners literally will get music in many genres and often in blended genres.
BTS is the largest group in the world, playing Wembley Stadium last year to 2 sold out shows. BTS has more fans than any other group which earns them both love and hate unlike any other group. But I truly believe those who dig in will find something so different and special, that they will be rewarded for their efforts in ways most other groups cannot provide. Good luck with your journey.
💜💜💜
It's true, BTS puts so much meaning and symbolism into their music and their videos, like Philosophy, Psychology (Carl Jung...), Literature, they reference mythology, classical music and other arts - it's such an experience to immerse oneself into their "world" (or the neverending rabbit hole, as it is known) 💜
Pistorius is a character in "Demian", who plays the organ for Sinclair, who is the protagonist of the novel. The organ piece is actually by the composer Buxtehude, and it is named in the novel.

Wow, thanks for all the references 🙌🏽🙌🏽
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow. What a strong mv to start with. Usually, we don't recommend Blood, Sweat and Tears for first timers because it can be quite surprising and very out of the box theme especially for western reactors. but you guys really dove headfirst. I loved your reactions. Y'all seemed really intersted and genuinely curious about them and how kpop boybands are so unlike any other boybands that came before them. 💜
We loved it that this was our first one. We love when a band is creative and artistic. It makes it so interesting. We did not expect this. So we were blown away. More BTS coming today and every Friday from now on 🤩😍
make up is part of kpop. all idols male and female wear it during events and performances . they dont wear make up during normal days obviously lol. I have seen their real skin from their vlogs and live streams and other videos and they are not perfect but i am jealous of their tiny pores, their face looks so smooth :(
Yeah true. We are jealous as well😂😂😂
@@stufr.reacts some do wear make up. I'm their free time too tho if they feel like it. For example, the youngest member (Jungkook aka JK) is known for being into make up, even in off time. Make up for both guys and girls is normalized in Korea so it's not surprising if kpop idols (both guys and girls) continue to wear make up off stage and in their free time.
@@melissasanchez4060 its called metrosexual. Modern Korean culture is quite an eye opener for non Korean as such myself. I know a normal 9 to 5 Korean guy has more make-up cosmetic than my sister.
Yeah we love the metrosexual men. It is awesome that all these norms are fading!
Why obviously? Idk if they wear Makeup as such (meaning concealer etc) but they definitely do skin care etc :)
This type of look for this mv is for a purpose, there’s a message BTS try to show in each of their me so they will have different looks and concept.This me is about temptation and losing innocence so that explains the look for this mv. Try watching DNA(pop/bright), FAKE LOVE(dark/mystical), MIC DROP(hip hop style), BLACK SWAN/ON(there recents one), BOY WITH LOVE( similar to America. pop). They are have wide range of concept and genre they use for their music. Most of the boys produced their own songs and help with the music making process. Try some of their MVs, then some introductions to bts( there’s many u will find), and then some of off stage or live performance. U WILL SEE WHY THERE THIS POPULAR, THERE DIFFERENT FROM OTHER GROUP/BOY BAND
Sounds amazing. We can’t wait to check everything out! ☺️
this music video definitely had an androgynous look, but there looks vary throughout their music videos especially their more hip-hop based ones in comparison to their more popish songs but some of the members definitely have more "feminine" features and have an androgynous look in real life in comparison to other members who don't and the interlude part in the song is connected to their BU (which is basically a bts universe, it is a whole bunch of music videos, clips, and songs that are connected and create a story line but its very confusing so that a story for another day lol)
It sounds very interesting. Thanks for sharing that information🤩🤩. We would love to get to know the BU!
this is just a warning !!! that you might fall into the rabbit hole.. ive seen people who first time to react to BTS that are now die hard fan.. but lemme welcome you in our fandom in advance.. and reacting to BTS videos are endless ..
Haha, thanks for the warning. 🤣
Their Black Swan mv is like a switched version of Blood Sweat and Tears. It has that same aesthetic but the colors are dark. B.S.T is about the young adults and temptation of evil in life. It's about a book but I can't remember the name of it😅
Wow, thanks for the explanation. ☺️😍
The book is Demian by Herman Hesse and the majority of this fandom had to read it to u derstand the BU storyline and the hiden meaning on the mvs
This video is based on a novel demain by Hermain Hesse
Bts is a not only normal band they are world biggest boy band 💜💜💜💜
Thank-you for your reaction
Amazing!! Thanks 😍
Could react to BTS-Fake love
We will soon!
@@stufr.reacts yes fake love i see you like aesthetic and huge production. Fake Love is definitely THAT video.
Wait what happening the vdo was uploaded 4 day ago and ur comment was 1week ago whhh whhaaat 🤔
@@abieekurpan exactly. Aesthetic is off the charts with fake love too. DNA and Idol would also be good choices for that reason
Tommy Ramchiary they just applauded an announcement of the video earlier and it could be commented
Oh you sweet dear boys! What you have in store in your research! I am an elderly white woman in the deep southern U. S. A.💜 BTS is the best music I've heard in decades. And no, I don't care for Kpop. BTS is levels above standard Kpop. They are their own genre. The depth, music, lyrics, love and kindness from all 7 of these beautiful men is absolute amazing.
Hope you enjoy your journey as much as we Armys have! 💜
Thanks so much for you amazing comment 💜💜. We allready filmed ahead a bit, so we can enjoy a little summerbreak, and I can tell you we are becoming Armys more and more by the minute. This group is so good, creative and artistic. We are amazing. So stay tuned for more videos every week 😍💜
Please react to these following documentaries
-BTS Contribution to Music
-BTS Nobody to Legends 2019
-BTS Crash Course 2020( History and Music)
-Who is BTS the Seven Member of Bangtan
You’ll be educated to BTS after reacting to these videos
yess
Good list... I'd add Carpool Karaoke (James Cordon show) for the lighter side....
This is one of their harder to understand MVs for newcomers because it has a lot of symbolism.
1) It (based on what I've read for other comments of different reactions) is part of the larger BU (BTS Universe) which is a whole thing to get into.
2) As a standalone, it is based on the book Demain(?) by Herman Hesse, which is about losing innocence and temptation.
Kpop boy groups are a lot more androgynous than guy Western artists. Guys wearing make up is normal in Korea. It's honestly really refreshing compared to the constant onslaught of toxic masculinity in mainstream media.
as people have probably told you, this is deep into the BU (Bangtan Universe) which is their storyline. It's been going on since 2015 and the company (BigHit) created the whole thing and planned it out before they debuted in 2013. There's always hints and little easter eggs in all their MV's and most of their MV's are connected and tell stories. It's very interesting. it's very hard to grasp what is going on if you haven't seen any other previous parts of the storyline, but it was also hard to grasp what was going on when you did watch the full storyline LOL. loved your reaction! We purple you! (means I love you to ARMYS (BTS fans))
Thanks so much for explaining. We purple comments like this!! It teaches us and makes us even more motivated to dive more into the BTS universe 😍
@@stufr.reacts yes! We welcome you with open arms :)
they are beautiful human beings, inside and outside. They are great artists and all their mv's are like movies. they never disappoint.
BTS MVs have storylines and every visuals on it have meanings ..
See, now u have to see Mike Drop so u can get the other end of the spectrum with this band, they just do everything and are so versatile, just when u think u know, they switch it all up, you need to watch more of their videos, these guys are huge for a reason.....
We will do BTS every Friday from now on. We definitely want to discover more of them 🤩🤩
With bts you don't get superficial stuff. There are obviously songs for purely fun, however this is not one of those songs haha. Anyways they write and produce their own stuff which to me let's me respect them as real artists.
Also they are very big on using their influence for good. Makeup is normal in every tv industry lol. Even news anchor men get their makeup done. Maybe not to this extent but still, not a new thing.
Lastly bts have so much good music just tell me what your style is and I'd be more than happy to recommend some songs. I've been a fan since 2014 so if you have any questions sont be afraid to ask.
Also production value wasn't always huge for bts. They came from a small almost bankrupt company! Which is different to blackpink. 💜
also a quick run down of the members from oldest to youngest
Jin (Kim Seokjin, 1992) - Visual and Vocalist - in the mv with light pink hair and at the end with his face cracking
Suga (Min Yoongi, 1993) - lead rapper - in the mv the first rapper who you said had a deeper voice, has black hair
J-Hope (Jung Hoseok, 1994) - Main dancer, lead rapper, and sub vocalist - in the mv with the orangish hair
RM (Kim Namjoon, 1994) - Leader and Main Rapper - in the mv he was the one touching his lips
Jimin (Park Jimin, 1995) - Main Dancer and lead vocalist - in the mv had grey hair and dark eye shadow
V (Kim Taehyung, 1995) - Lead Dancer, Vocalist, and Visual - in the mv has blond hair
Jungkook (jeon jungkook, 1997) - Main Vocalist, Lead Dancer, sub-rapper, and center - in the mv hair brown hair and was the one on the swing
Thanks!! That is a lot of names. It will take us a little while to get to know these🤩☺️😉🙃
@@stufr.reacts don't worry it took me a while too, usually rm is the easiest to distinguish for most people because he's the tallest, the leader, speaks English, and has a very unique look to him (reactors are usually always able to identify rm first)
That’s a good way to start. Thanks a lot for the tip! ☺️
JHope is also Dance Leader, Lead Writer, Lead Producer, V's not official Visual or Lead Danced, is Dancer & is also Writer, Producer, RM is also Main Writier, Main Producer, Suga is also Lead writer, Main Producer, Jimin is also Writer, Producer & helps teach choreos, Jungkook's also Writer, Producer
Annemay Seyfried true they do all these things but those aren’t actual positions theirs no such thing as main writer or main producer or the things you listed in kpop, and v was declared as lead dancer in 2018 and became a visual as well but idk which year
This is my first time didnt get annoyed when someone reacting and pausing the mv, i guess i like how you described what you think or want us explain to you
Thanks so much. We appreciate you saying that alot!!! We really try to stay ourselves and be honest and really describe how we feel in stead of entertaining. We love to share our discovery of BTS and therefor we want to stay completely honest 🤩😍
You should reaction to DNA and mic drop from BTS is very popular from them
We will check them out soon
Why ur comment was 1 week ago too. Vdo was uploaded 4 days ago then how . What happening 🤔
They look as flawless without any make up on. Their barefaces are amazing.
We are sooo jealous ☺️
BTS are extremely talented artists and philanthropists. Also they write their songs, contrary to most kpop groups.
We love learning more and more about them🤩🤩🤩
Don't worry, a 6 minute MV is not long when it comes to BTS!! You're going to LOVE them!!!
Wow, that’s something else for a change then. Can’t wait!
Blood sweat and tears is based on a book "Demian" that talk about loosing innocence and giving in to the temptation.
For start I will reccomend those songs:
DNA
fake love
On
Mic drop
Spring day
Black swn
Idol
Dope
Fire
Young forever

From nobody to legends 2019
BTS has an inner cinematic storyline. And this video ties in to that. There are many layers to enjoying BTS. The visuals, the sound, the choreography but then you get into the lyrics and see how deep those are, and you realize you need to study art, literature, psychology, and philosophy to truly absorb their artistry. BTS lead you down the rabbit hole because they make you LEARN. Neat fact! They based their newest 2 albums (Map of the Soul: Persona and Map of the Soul: 7) after a book called Map of the Soul about Carl Jung's psychology by Murray Stein who in turn wrote a NEW version of Map of the Soul:7 BTS which explores how BTS used Jungian psychology in their last series. They are for sure not a typical boy band. 💜💜
Definitely no ordinary boyband. That’s what makes them amazing!! 💜
They are amazing. That’s why they are global superstars. We love them. And they deliver every time.
The definitely do!!!
Nederlandse ARMY hier, sinds 2014 ✨ Leuk dat jullie de jongens leren kennen. BTS x ARMY is a movement/community who put a lot of work in charity, change and positivity. A place where everyone is accepted and where explanation videos/learning about philosophy and psychology is a must, to understand their content from 2013 up until now. 🍀💜 Kusjes!!
Hey! Welkom! Leuk om ook een Nederlands Army member erbij te hebben. We gaan zeker kijken naar explaination videos. Die gaan we op ons lijstje zetten 😍. BTS x Army past qua gevoel zo goed bij ons. Wij streven ook naar een kanaal waar iedereen welkom is en ieder elkaar met veel respect behandeld. 💜💜
I had seen this music video before. It is really good. I had seen another BTS music video called, Fake Love. You should check out that video.
Oh really? So, you are ahead of us. ☺️ We will check it out for sure! ☺️
Elizabeth Ortiz, are you Army?
Bts have a storyline in their videos, is all so meaningful, even their group's name.
Amazing!!
The song that BTS made is so "deep". They make me think about my life again and improve myself 💜
Their lyrics are so meaningful
We absolutely get that. We were not expecting that. It is really amazing. We have another BTS video coming up tomorrow🤩😍
@@stufr.reacts owhh I'm looking forward!
If you actually take time to learn about BTS, you'll find out that they are more than just kpop or a boy band... They rule the world of music.. seriously guys, you should check them out more.. they have 3 rappers and 4 vocalists
Blood Sweat and Tears got me into BTS in 2017 it’s a masterpiece and will always have special place in my heart 💜
Amazing, for us too!
some information about them:
there are three rappers and four vocalist:
RM- he is the leader of the group, rapper, proucer ( he produce almost every bts song) and song writer. he was underground rapper and he released two mixtape that are solo work.
He is smart and when he was young and took IQ test he got 148. he worked with wale, fall out boys etc.
JIN- he is the older in the group and he is vocalist, visual and song writer. he also known as WWH (worldwide handsome) because he has amazing face.
he is also have amazing personalityand never follows the rules, if it coloring he's hair or wearing matching clothes etc.
SUGA
- he is a rapper ( like rm he was underground rapper too), producer and song writer. he released two mixtape and one was released a week ago that called D-2, and released an MV for one of the songs called daechwita. he known to be the more aggresive when he raps and you can see it in hes mixtapes.
JHOPE- he is dance leader, rapper, producer and song writer and was a street dancer. he is known for he's amazing freestyles and he's uniqe flow in rapping. he released one mixtape that called hope world. He said he want to be our hope and cheer us.
JIMIN- he is lead vocalist, main dancer and song writer. he is known for he's soft voice like in he's solo song promise that he produced and wrote. he was a contemporary dance student and learned other dance styles. like j-hope they both are amazing dancer but with a different style.
V- he is a vocalist, dancer and song writer. he wrote and produced the songs scenery and winter bear. he is known for he's deap and soulful voice but he has a wide range and you can see it in he's song stigma. he known for he's amazing face expretion especially in middle of live performances.
JUNGKOOK- he is the youngest also called the golden maknae. he is the main vocalist, song writer and lead dancer. He is good at everything and he have new song that released today in soundcloud called "still with you" that he produced and wrote to the fans for the festa ( festa is like a birthday of the band 13.6 that they release a lot of content to their fans in this time) he also produced magic shop and other songs.
bts debut in 2013, came from small company and with amazing talent and dreams they got to where they are. in bts songs they cover all genres from rock, jazz, pop, r&b, country, hiphop ect.
they are known for their amazing nice personality and tage presence, meaningful lyrics. they use a lot of reffernces from historical moments, paintings like in this video, quotes, books( this song was about the book demian that talks about lose of inocence) etc.
sorry for the long comment but I actually tried really hard to write the important points even though it's just half of the information I wanted to give you. if you check them in the future I will recoomend spring day with explanation, on, black swan and mic drop for start.
You know you're in this Bangtan sh*t for life when you know all the artistic reference in their every MVs. It requires some intellectual properties to accept BTS as BTS on the first view. Many are overwhelmed by them just for the performances and beauties, but some who appreciate BTS for their deeper aspects, presumably will stay here with us for life... Congrats, brothers. Welcome to the family.
In this MV they looked very "feminine" because they have message on it. I recommend watch "ON: kinetic manifesto MV", Mic Drop, Not Today, Idol, soooo many different style of music they have.
Please check their live perfomances in MMA or MAMA music award, even their concert! You guys will be 😱😱😱
Also check : From nobody to legends.... that will open our mind about their hardship and hardwork in this crazy k-pop industry
There are lots of great comments here but i want to add that you have so much to explore. Their b-tracks are as amazing as the most popular ones. They`ve been on stage for seven years so there is a really big amount of songs. Good luck
So since many people gave u a kind of intro about the band i will explain about the music video. This mv is a part of their album wings based on the book DEMIAN by HERMANN HESSE. its has a theme of losing innocence and falling into tempation. The painting the first guy was looking at in the beginning is called "the fall of the rebel angels" by Bruegel. It depicts the war between the fallens ( temptations and evil) and humans. The book is about a character sinclair and him fighting with his tempations. Spoiler😊 in the end he embraces them( the kiss is a scene in the book).suga was playing what demian played in the book for sinclair which is buxtehude's passacaglia
There is so much green and pink. the green is absinthe .U can see the absinthe-imbibed suger lump on fire before RM drinks the green drink. It is a hallucinogenic drink. It simbolizes creativity and liberation as well as madness and despair.
the text written above the mirror where jins face is cracking it says "Man muss noch chaos in sich haben um einen tenzenden stern gebaren zu konnen" quote from nietzche meaning " you must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star". So about the face crackin in the book damien says" the bird fights its way out of the EGG the egg is the world. WHO WOULD BE BORN MUST FIRST DESTROY A WORLD. The bird flies to the god. That gods name is abraxas." So in carl jungs 1916 book seven sermons to the dead " that which is spoken by God the sun is life and the devil is death. Abraxus speaketh that hallowed and accursed word which is life and death at the same time. Abraxas begetteth truth and lying, good and evil, light and darkness in the same word and in z same act." There is so much symbolism, historical, mythical, psychological, and litrary reference so its hard to explain everything but generally its about embrace the dark and the light part of your self to truly and wholly accept your self thus accepting and loving yourself for who u are. Sorry for rumbling. 💜 edit: the tine that played at beginning is Mass in B-minor ( germem: h-Moll-Messe), BWV 232, extended setting of the mass ordinary by Johann sebastian Bach.
I rather watch 7 beautiful androgynous boys with perfect skin & beautiful voices singing & dancing than 7 muscular bearded men doing the same with gruffy "masculine" voices. Not body shaming anyone, just stating my preference Lol. Based on how popular BTS is among women of all ages, toxic masculinity (or that macho thing you talking about) is sure as hell, dead. Btw Park Jimin (main dancer, lead vocalist) wrote the melody for this Song. He is crowned by Korean media as the King of Kpop. He is Most popular Idol 2 years in a row & has topped the individual idol Brand Reputation index continuously since beginning of 2019. Akso voted Best Dancer & Most Versatile Idol. Sorry for talking so much about Jimin. He is my bias. All the boys are really super talented. I love them all.
Agreed! Toxic masculinity is really something to worry about. We love their style!
If Jimin is your bias, you should know that he didn't compose this song. Any part of it. I do not know why Jin mentioned him as the creator of melody, but that was a mistake. The writers of this song are:
Kim Do Hoon, J-Hope, P Dogg, RM, Bang Si Hyuk, Suga.
Their concert is amazing and lit..
Please react to their live performance
Thanks for the hint. 😍
BTS isn’t kpop. BTS is the genre. BTSPop :)
Trust me when I say, BTS puts so much into their songs and videos. A lot of kpop groups do, but not like BTS does. Their meanings have meanings. They make art pieces, not music videos.
Yeah we found that out. And that is exactly why we love them💜💜
please more bts
We will do that for sure! Stay tuned🤩
Also. Here is a whole BTS Universe story line that weaves through all their songs and ties everything to everything. BTS fandom is like falling through a rabbit hole. You will never be the same, and be better for it. There are videos out there explaining the whole universe.
We will check that out for sure. Thanks!!
This is actually part of the BANGTAN UNIVERSE STORYLINE
This is the first BTS music video that I ever saw. And, like you, I was floored. 💜💟
What's crazy is the they look just as good if not better without the stage makeup!
Awesome! 💜
Aww really enjoyed this- if ur truly falling for BTS music and everything they bring -ARMY will guide your fall down the BTS rabbit hole. I look forward to seeing more of ur reactions 🤗
We do enjoy it! Definitely more BTS reactions coming up soon. ☺️
STUFR & More 😁yay👏
RM,Jimin,V,Suga,Jungkook,j.Hope,Jin. Individually great artists, together .what can I say but WOW WOW WOW
BTS- Black Swan
Black Swan- MN Dance Film
BTS- Boy With Luv
BTS- Fake Love
BTS- ON ofc MV
Enjoy your BTS journey.🙋♀️🤗😍💜💞✌🙏🇺🇸
Thanks!! 💜🇳🇱
Bts has a storyline starting from 2015, started from I need u (19+ version). I recommend Fake Love, Black Swan, ON, Mic Drop, and DNA. Indonesian Army (army = bts fandom) here
Their songs are more complicated than what you think
First U have to watch BTS from nobodies to legends 2019 to get to know the more.
They are the biggest kpop band. :)
just a note: BTS = / = KPOP, they are the underdogs ;)
Yes, we know that now. Amazing!
As an American I very much appreciate how BTS helps expose our culture and youth to the idea that there's a whole world outside of toxic masculinity.. which is sadly still prevalent here
We couldn’t agree more!!! We need that here in Europe as well. We need them to show how completely normal it is. And that masculinity is nothing but a word. We love that about BTS so far💜
Please more BTS 🙏💜
Thanks for your Reaktion 💜
Sure, more coming up soon. ☺️
I subscribed for more bts reactions they are so special 🙏
More bts !!!!!!!!! The biggest band in the world 💜💜💜💜💜💜
More BTS coming every Friday 🤩😍
I love how you want to express how you think about them or something about them with a wise word...
On kinetic manifesto film is a must to watch
We will definitely do that one soon!! Stay tuned🤩
Actually all songs of BTS are good. Their songs have message. It's therapy.
💜💜💜
All their songs are worth listening to
Sure!! More coming soon. 😍
The Korean aesthetic for KPOP IDOLS and even actors and models is different than western standards. Extremely Handsome men are "pretty" and their features meet an aesthetic standard (E.g. small face, full lips, white skin, angular jaw line, nose, double eyelids, etc.) They also take care of their skin and maintain strict skin care routines and treatments to give them that flawless, dewy look. It is always interesting to hear Westerners react to how beautiful they are, as if it's a flaw. I know you guys didn't do that, but you did spend a significant part of your reaction commenting on how they looked. KPOP group members have their designated roles as main rapper, main dancer, main vocal, center and main "Visual". Guess which BTS Member was selected as their Main Visual from watching Blood Sweat and Tears? As BTSARMY, I did appreciate your honest perspective from a Northern European cultural angle and enjoyed your reaction to this video as your first boyband reaction. This video was a pivotal turning point for BTS, sending BTS into a whole other global reach category outside of KPOP. Yes, they are Korean, but their music transcends the boundaries of the KPOP genre and can simply be described as "BTS", because their sound, look and production is unique unto themselves. Their music is a fusion of styles, but its their lyrics that set them apart. To fully appreciate Blood Sweat and Tears, watch the Explained Video and the tie in with Herman Hesses' Demian, and the symbolism of the famous art pieces throughout. I thought about what I would recommend to you next - I think I would recommend Save Me. This video is polar opposite to Blood Sweat & Tears, with no special effects and filmed in one shot. I think you will see just how versatile, incredibly talented and charismatic these 7 are. BTS AKA Bangtan Sonyeondon are Kim Namjoon (RM), Kim Seokjin (Jin), Min Yoongi (SUGA), Jeon Hoseok (JHOPE/HOBI), Park Jimin (JIMIN), Kim Taehyung (V) and our Golden Maknae (Youngest who is good at everything), Jeon Jungkook (Jungkook, JK, Kookie). I am looking forward to your journey down the BTS rabbit hole💜
Wow, this was really interesting and helpful. Thanks so much for taking the time to explain. You are awesome. We are glad to have you around. ☺️ hopefully you like our other content as well. 😍
i don't often stick around for the conversations after the music video ends, but i watched all of yours, you guys are wonderful! look forward to more!
What a nice compliment! Thanks so much. We are glad you enjoy our channel. 😍
I am so happy that you liked this video. Blood Sweat and Tears was also my first BTS mv back in 2017. Blackpink was also the first kpop group that i loved and it was before i met BTS. I love these 2 groups but i can't say im a blink however, i am thankful for BP for leading me to BTS. I hope you can do more reactions of their mvs and live performances because they are very precious boys, they are extremely talented, they do/help making their own songs and they've been to a lot of hardships and i love them so much. I hope you will love them too! 😍😍😍
We have already filmed a few more reactions to BTS that will come out during the summer and I can tell you. We really love them. They are soooo talented. And artistic. We are amazed!!! So stay tuned for many more reactions. 😍
BTS is a culture all to themselves. Yes, they are obviously within the context of and influenced by kpop in general, but they've always put their own spin on it. The more you see from them and other kpop groups, the more evident it will become that BTS transcends labels like kpop and boy band.
We already get a feeling that you must be right. This group is soooo interesting and mind blowing to explore. So much more to learn for us. We love that!
BTS started as a 7 member hip-hop group in SK in 2013. They debuted as a Kpop idol group that year. They have grown beyond that label to where now the 'genre is BTS'. BTS makes powerful music videos - (many are actual 6 minute movies) There are more than 70 official MVs and literally hundreds of unofficial ones. BTS has released 7 full length studio albums, each one better than the last... 6 EPs, 11 compilation albums, and too many individual singles to keep track of. All 7 members have solo projects. And they write and produce a lot (maybe most) of their own work. They've made a 4 season - (so far) 8 episodes each - travel series called Bon Voyage. They've made a few "growing up" series that document their journey to becoming the artists they are. They have an ongoing variety show called 'Run BTS' that's a lot of fun... And they communicate with their (literally millions) of fans with a VLive vlog from Korea on a regular basis. They've done 4 World Tours, the last one a stadium tour.... and they are amazing in live concerts. There are long concert clips on YT and FB. And they've made documentaries about the concert tours that touch on how they felt and what went on during the tours. They've done too many concerts, fan meetings, showcases and award shows to count... (see wikipedia BTS Tours). In a recent interview JHope said 'becoming a fan of BTS is the best decision'... when asked what they like to do on their days off... everyone of them has said "sleep." Oh, there's so much more but well... if you stick around you'll see and I hope you do like the music enough to keep following them... you won't be bored.
We are already hooked!!! We have decided to do a BTS reaction every Friday for the coming period. We love it. So stay tuned. And thanks for the awesome information🤩🤩🤩
I think I've never really listened much to what people say during reaction videos and rather just watch them to see people's expressions but this is the first time I actually wanted to listen to commentary. You guys had very well thought out impressions and opinions and it was very interesting to hear! Hope you guys continue to make more!
Oh wow. Thanks so much. That is a huge compliment. We appreciate you saying that very much. We really hope to create our own vibe of reactions on our channel. We try to be super authentic and we love the journey of exploring BTS and other artists. Thanks for joining us on our journey☺️🤩😍
New ARMYs yayy!
Please react to their latest MV Black Swan. And Many Good songs - Fake Love, DNA, FIRE, NOT TODAY, IDOL, etc. Another good latest MV : BTS ‘ON’ KInetic Manifesto Film: Come Prima. Even without makeup, BTS still looks as good looking and attractive! Their song lyrics are good too! React more, you will discover more about them. They have great personalities too!
thanks for checking them!!
this song is a bit complicated but is one of my favorite and for first songs to watch I will recommend:
spring day
dna
idol
fake love
fire
dope
mic drop
on
not today
save me
black swan
those all have mv and good for seeing their diversity in music genres.
videos to know the members and their journey more are:
bts worldwide crush course 2020
from nobody to legends 2019
who is bts? the seven members of bangtan
or maybe individual introduction to all the members.
and again thank you for giving them a look!!!
Your insightful reactions gave me so much joy. I'm a recent Army and everything about this video completely blew me away too!
This video has a lot of references to Demian by Hermann Hesse, the entire theme is about giving into temptation and discovering the chaos in yourself. It is like you need to embrace the good and bad about yourself and the world to have a better understanding and to grow. Their videos and concepts of every album are portrayed in a unique and interesting way. That includes everything from lyrics to music videos and also the styles of clothing they choose. If you have interests in will written lyrics and a wide variety of music you will definitely enjoy BTS. If you are more into hip hop, check out Mic Drop, the Cypher series, Outro: Tear, any of the rappers mixtapes, and their sound cloud. For pop: Airplane pt 2, DNA, Boy with Love, Fake Love, ON, I need you. For less poppy music there's Mikrokosmos, Spring Day, Autumn Leaves, House of Cards, Jamis Vu, Make it Right, etc. If you are interested in choreography, check out live performances especially for Fire, Dionysis, N.O., DNA. These are only a few because there are way to many to list.
I'm really glad this is your first BTS mv/song.. it's one of my all time favorite songs & the mv is a piece of art
BTS touch on literary references on their craft whether its music videos, music & performances. They are on another level.
Their styles vary too and i hope you can react to more bts music videos
I'm so happy you started with this song because this was the first of their songs that I absolutely fell I love with when I discovered them around 2016. I lost count of how many times I replayed the video. So basically, it feels as if you and I had the same introduction to BTS music 😁 I also thought this video had a very baroque influence, and you're the first TH-cam reactors that I've seen comment on that 🥳
I also love that you caught that phrase that you went back to read. The band used a lot of references to Hermann Hesse's German novel "Demian" in the album that this song is from. The album is about coming of age, loss of innocence, and identity, and each band member has a solo song on the album that explores those themes. The songs had sort of teasers/trailers/mini-films that included quotes from the novel.
One of the most important things to know about this band is that each album or series of albums tells a story. The latest series was heavily and blatantly inspired by Jungian theories of the self. The first album had a song called "Persona" that talked about how their different stage identities and personal identities have led to confusion about who they actually are. The next album has songs called "Shadow" and "Ego" that further this discussion and ultimately tell the story of accepting all sides of one's identity.
With BTS, the songs and videos are always deeper than they appear, so I highly recommend watching explanation videos by the channel DKDKTV to dive into Korean cultural and historical references into he songs and things that were lost in translation in the lyrics.
BTS really differs from other kpop groups because there is so much substance behind the awesome beats and visuals, and they really believe in using their platform for positivity. They made one of their choruses a repetition of the phrase "I love myself," knowing full well that their fans would sing along with them. It is truly beautiful to watch a stadium full of people screaming that they love themselves. This is probably information overload for you, but I wanted to try giving some insight into why the fandom ARMY is as devoted as it is. I hope you keep reacting to them because there truly is so much to dig into. Have a nice day!
We value this comment a lot. It really helps us to understand them better. And it’s amazing that this was your first introduction to BTS as well. We also love the style (baroque as you say) and the German sentence is beautiful. Never read it before. We are happy to have you here in the channel! We hope you enjoy!! 😍
this music video is a really good example of the way they often layer symbolism in their works. it's part of a larger storyline, loosely inspired by the novel demian, and everything from the lyrics to the artworks in the background to the symbolism of the flowers has a meaning, and the more you watch it the more you notice! the attention to detail is really insane.
Yes, it’s crazy. And beautifully done! 😍💜
Love the reaction! Looking forward for nxt bts song
the storyline and symbolism in their videos are WAY more complicated than you think lol
im glad you caught the verse near the end of the video... please always pay attention to BTS’ lyrics, theyre always meaningful and inspirational. and play the BTS vids until the end. thanks for this reaction. 💜
Our pleasure. We definitely are learning a lot about them. We love that💜
i feel you are genuine so i am looking forward to more bts reactions. i hope you can come to like them like we do but if not that's okay as long as you respect them.
Thanks so much. We appreciate you saying that!!!!! We will definitely react to more BTS. We love exploring the world of Kpop even more. We will always respect everyone. Music is all a matter of taste. But also about being open to experience new things. That is what we love. We loved this first BTS song and video a lot. So I have a feeling we will like their other songs as well🤩😍
BTS is not only about looks, nice locations, outfits etc. there is so much meaning in every video/song and such a deep important message in everything they do! Please check out “BTS contribution to music” you will get the point ❤️love🌈
Bts and blackpink are my FAVOURITE GROUPSSSSSSS.
For us as well. Love them 💜
Watching and enjoying people go down the rabbit hole just like me 2 months ago. I am obsessed
continue watching BTS. there is so much diversity in their music. they are so talented on all levels i know you will enjoy. and yes, they are are a genre unto themselves
BTS has many concepts when it comes to their MVs and music production. This MV is just ONE of many.
Today is their 7th Year Anniversary since debut on June 13, 2013. 💜 BTS are amazing storytellers and more. I'm not sure where to begin, but just know that they are the TOTAL PERFORMANCE PACKAGE, which is barely scratching the surface of who they are as Artists. 😭💜
#ARMYsince2014
Oh, wow! Happy anniversary. 💜
They’re huge on production and story telling, they love breaking out of the topical boy band, also most of their music is self produced which we really love as it’s more authentic.
This video was inspired, as you’ve pointed out by a lot of artwork such as Pietà' by Michelangelo, The Fall of the Rebel Angels' by Peter Bruegel they also had the “fall of Icarus” landscapes
Plus that this video and their whole album “Wings” was inspired by the book Demian by Herman Hesse.
They also used biblical references, basically this song is about temptation and losing your innocence, giving in to the devil.
I feel like you’d also love their song “boy with luv” or DNA, they’re very colorful and happy songs but also their “black swan” video that is visually and audibly a masterpiece.
Hopefully you’ll listen to more, they have an unmatched and really versatile discography, it’s really good
This was my first introduction to BTS too :) stumbled upon it on youtube and down the rabbit hole i fell and havnt turned back ^_^ Enjoy the ride!
Thanks so much!! We are loving it already 🤩🤩🤩
I love that your first BTS MV is Blood Sweat and Tears 😊
Thanks, we agree 😍
so good to watch knowledged people! thank you so much for giving bts a chance and treating them with respect!
It is our pleasure. Thanks for watching😍😍😍
They are like dolls, lol. They're very pretty!
bts on kinetic manifesto
When he said he hopes they don't switch there hair color around, when I say I died laughing I meant it lmao
this is literally one of the first mistakes new fans do, they try to keep track of who's who by hair color, NEVER do that their hair color changes faster than the weather lol.
You cannot like BTS you will LOVE them!!!!💜💜💜💜💜💜
We have a feeling that is exactly what will happen during our journey 💜
thankyou for reacting to bts! please react t their documentary :))
