Let’s set the record straight! I didn’t say “it’s for teenage girls” or “only teenage girls watch” I just SIMPLY SAID they must be every teenage girls dream. Meaning that I can see why MANY girls would love them. Look at them! They are humble, real, good looking and positive. Please let’s not jump to conclusions here.

One thing I want to point out that is a massive plus about you is that when you realized you didn't have subtitles, you put them on and went BACK. A lot of reactors just put the subtitles on when they remember to and don't run it back. That is a HUGE plus to ARMY and shows that you care. We thank you💜 welcome to the rabbit hole that is BTS

I am almost 50 and have seen Pink Floyd, U2, Rush (several times), Metallica, and many other great concerts. BTS blows them all away...by a wide margin. They are so talented and most importantly-amazing human beings!!

They are the #1 group in the world (not just kpop). They are rappers, vocalists, dancers, lyricists, producers, entertainers . . . LEGENDS!

54 year old ARMY here and I appreciate you reacting to BTS. I pointed out my age because I want to let you know that their fans age range is birth to death 😂. Seriously. My mother is 91 and loves these guys (and so does my 16 year old daughter). I went to their concert in LA and Vegas and I met several people that were in their 60’s and 70’s that were huge fans (they were getting just as crazy as the younger fans). There was a 3 generation family sitting next to me in Vegas that traveled from the Philippines to see them. It is staggering how big and diverse their fan base is. Every single member is talented enough to stand on their own and together they are unstoppable. They have a LOT of content to view… check it out. You won’t be disappointed. 💜

Hey! Love your reaction, thanks for being open-minded and attentive. You wondered how the group was formed and if you want to learn more about them I'd suggest "The most beautiful life goes on: A story of BTS (2022 update!)" by Rice Squad. And If you want to learn about their personalities: "A guide to BTS members: the bangtan 7" by Taylor Man is the best. These videos are long, but ARMY(BTS fans) are not scared of this and will gladly watch them with you 💜

BTS does NOT stand for 'behind the scenes', their name stands for BangTan Sonyeondan - Korean for Bulletproof Boy Scouts. They debuted as a Hip Hop Idol Group in 2013, from a small company - BIG HIT Ent., and they worked hard to have the success they have today. They are the most popular music group in the world right now, and they have arguably the largest fanbase in the world, with over 90 million fans and growing. They write, compose, and produce their own music, and they are not afraid to try new genre's and give messages in their music that are not common in KPOP, like social justice, mental health, and self love and development, etc. They are genuine, hard working, humble, and extremely talented, that is why they are famous and loved through out the world. I'm a 56 year old ARMY (BTS Fandom), and I've never loved a group of musicians more than BTS. They have created a community of people that spred their message of Love Yourself, and Follow Your Dreams, and Don't give up, and keep going, we can do this together. BTS ARMY are one of a kind, because BTS are one of a kind. Sorry I went on a rant, you will find that BTS fans are very passionate about supporting BTS, and spreading their message. I would like to recommend an introduction video that will tell you their story from the perspective of the Fandom. This one is very well done, by an ARMY that does video editing for a living, and she actually got the input from the fandom and incorporated it into her intro. It's the best one out their as far as introductions. We don't mind watching longer videos as well. So here you go. A Guide To BTS Members: The Bangtan 7 by Taylor - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ntuGktx6yd6-gI0.html

Hello my Dear, I'm 68 years old and I love BTS so MUCH, 7 young men super talented AND truly artists, thanks for your reaction,enjoy your journey, Borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Army is really going to like you. You're open minded, value quality music, care about the lyrics and recognize their talent.

All types of music? Sounds like you're a good fit for BTS 😊 Thank you for being open minded, respectful, appreciative and interested in our pride and joy! Adding to the age comments... 47 here and adore BTS! 💜

They are seven very different artists, and that's why we have musical variety. They do hip hop, R&B, ballads, latin pop...etc. His lyrics are about self-love, mental health, issues of society , gratitude to his fans...etc. You could react to "RUN BTS" Busan concert, "ON kinetic manifesto", "DOPE". Just Rap line: "UGH" busan concert or "OUTRO: TEAR" Wembley( This song is about when they had problems and thought about disbanding in 2018). The lyrics are very important, always try to put a subtitle and if it doesn't work you can search later. (Sorry for my english) Thanks for your reaction.

70 year old BTS Army here. Fun fact: 25% of BTS Army (fans) are over 40. I like to just call them a "group" and that works for most of us. Just so you know, almost every performer wears stage makeup. Even news anchors wear makeup. The intense lighting washes them out. BTS is on a higher level and that is why they are the biggest group worldwide not just Kpop. They are heavily involved with writing and producing most of their own music since they have been given artistic freedom by their label. That artistic freedom is not promoted in the rest of the world of Kpop. Other labels hand their groups songs and tell them to sing it. BTS paved the way and have moved way beyond Kpop globally. They have won over 700 awards worldwide including the Artist of the Year at the American Music Awards where they have won 11 awards, two from this year. They have won a record breaking 12 Billboard Music Awards. They have also been nominated for five Grammy Awards with three this year just announced. Two of them are with Coldplay. The song you picked to react to here was their first Grammy nomination in 2020, "Dynamite". It received a lot of airplay. They have broken records held for decades by the Beatles and Michael Jackson just to name two. I suggest you watch BTS "ON Kinetic Manifesto Film" next and then a recent "Run BTS Dance Practice. There is also a very recent "Yet to Come Concert in Busan" performance with opening songs "Mic Drop" followed by "Run BTS" that you should see. Watch them both, one right after the other. You should also react to what is recommended for you by other members of BTS Army. Very good first reaction especially since you know nothing about them. Enjoy your journey down the BTS rabbithole should you choose to jump in. It has been life changing for so many. 💜

I'm going to comment as I watch. Yes bts is the biggest. They've been around since 2013. It's very likely that you've heard Dynamite (the first song) before because it was a international hit especially in the U.S. From Samsung commercials to sports games it was everywhere. Its their song. Dynamite, Butter (which you may have heard as well but not realized it), and Permission to Dance are their only full english songs; the rest are primarily in Korean. A good rule of thumb when it come to bts is whatever you think/assume about them, forget it. They're not like typical kpop or a typical boy group. They're following is not just teen girls. They make music in a variety of genres. No matter what song or video you start on, no singular video will ever show you their full potential. They have 3 rappers and 4 vocalists. Their rappers are REAL rappers too. It may be skipping ahead but if you want to get an idea of their abilities I suggest Outro:Tear (which is a rapline song, so only the rappers). If you want to see vocal line's abilities I recommend The Truth Untold if you like ballads or Dimple if you want something upbeat.

Bts is the greatest underdog story of all time. From a company right before bankruptcy, sharing one room, recording their first album in a garage, being hated and bullied by their peers in the industry, to the biggest group in the world, maybe of all time with 5 grammy nominations and the ability to sell out a stadium world tour in minutes. There is sooo much depth to everything they do, the music is great, the lyrics are awesome, their stage presence and dancing is incomparable. And while achieving all of this, they are all, above all, great human beings, humble, polite, with an unprecedented work ethic. They have a real bond among themselves, they truly love each other, they support each others solo projects etc. Their whole career has been played out on social media, so the fans have a feel like they have seen them grow up and there is a sense of pride there, and the want to protect them, b/c to this day, these guys have faced some enourmous hate, attempts at sabotage,foul media play, death threats, bullying of all kind, later when they broken to the US, racism and xenophobia as well. The bond they have with their fandom ARMY hasnt been seen in the music industry to this day, ever. One gripe, BTS is bigger than the whole kpop industry combined. When you look at a pie chart, over half is BTS, with Black pink sharing the other half with the rest of the kpop groups. BP is on a tour right now and they had somewhat trouble selling out 10-15k arenas. BTS in 2019 sold out Wembley stadium twice in like 90 minutes. So all in all NO comparison. I look forward to more BTS content from you. Good luck and ignore the occasional toxic morons in the comments.

BTS have been around since 2013 and for the most part write their own music with the help of their in-house staff but Dynamite is one of the very few tracks they had no hand creating. The rapline - blue, black and red mics do write their own bars and have mixtapes/solo albums showcasing their own voices outside of the group. The group's leader, Namjoon with the blue hair, does write most of their songs but all of the others have their own writing credits, too. He'll be releasing a solo album called Indigo in December with a lot of well known featured artists. Sadly you're being introduced to them now when the oldest member Jin, third from the right, will be enlisting in the Korean military for around 2 years next month since December 4th is his 30th birthday. I bet they're older than you thought! The others will be enlisting when their personal schedule allows but the rapper with the black mic is the next to hit 30 in March which is age limited they NEED to have it done by. Outside of an official announcement stating that they will be enlisting along with a notice that the entire group won't be back together as 7 until 2025 we don't have details on when it'll happen. However you have almost 10 years of content to wade through and they're actively working on side projects that they didn't have the time for. Sorry for the LONG post and lots of information but make sure the CCs are on for official MVs. Anything that says auto translated is going to be incorrect in terms of lyrics. These boys are really something special and for me a once in a lifetime act who I've seen live twice and they honestly set the bar crazy high in regards to what I want to see from any artist going forward.

Some of the ARMY was saying they couldn’t hear sometimes when I talk over the audio so I will try and fix that for my next videos! 💜

If you watch the Bangtan 7 by Taylor it is the most comprehensive and up to date introduction currently out there. It gives some information about the group as a whole and also breaks down each individual member's background and personality, including some information on how they joined. Definitely recommend it as the "go to" intro, and I guarantee although it might be a little long, we would love to watch you react to it. For music, I'd like to suggest you watch their Festa Room Live, which is a 10 minute medley of some of their b-sides from debut in 2013 to 2020. It's a really good way to see how versatile their music is.

I'm so happy you're reading the lyrics.. it's a big deal for both BTS and us ARMYs and part of the reasons why they're big, they're also more of a storyteller group... yes, they're lyrics are beautiful and poetic, they held different (deep) meanings...

Yea, BTS! I'm 44 and adore these guys for all their amazing talents. Their humble come-up and authentic chemistry simply cannot be replicated no matter how hard the other companies try to create their own version.

@11:58 I'm glad you asked about their background lol. There are 2 videos that people are going to/would recommend you. One is shorter and the other is longer but more up to date and comprehensive. The short one will give you a brief overview of what the group is all about & a little about where they came from. The longer one will go into depth about each member, how they got into the group, and what role they play in the group. You can start with the short one if you prefer, but everyone is going to ask for the longer one anyway lol. Here are the links: Introduction to bts by xceleste (shorter one) - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/acl1hqSDytqtaYk.html A guide to the 7 members of bts by Taylor - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ntuGktx6yd6-gI0.html

I love watching reactors recognize BTS for their incredible art and talent. They are #1 because they are that good! Each is an art genius in their own field, rap, vocals, dance, acting, visuals, philosophy, diplomacy...it seems like their depth never ends.

My fellow ARMY have done a great job summarizing how special BTS is. Good start, we appreciate you for being open-minded. You will be surprised how many genre's they cover. In addition to their extraordinary talent, they are also amazing human beings as you will find out should you go down that rabbit hole. It's worth it! 💜

Love how you always pointed out how well-written their lyrics are. This is one of the reasons why a lot of us gravitated towards them. They inspire me to learn korean language. Their ability to make wordplays & double to triple entendres across languages (Korean, Japanese, and English) are astounding.

This is BTS' first song in English which brought them to their first Grammy nomination in 2021. The only Korean Boy group to get Grammy Nomination. They have won over 800 awards including American Music Awards 11 wins and Billboard Music Award 12 wins. Their second all English song BUTTER brought them again to their second Grammy nomination in 2022. Just last week it was announced that they have 3 Grammy nominations again for 2023. They have broken records of legendary artists such as Michael Jackson, The Beatles, Celine Dion etc. They have spoken in the UN General Assembly 3 times and just In May this year they were invited by Pres. Biden in the White House to speak about Asian hate. They are producers, composers and song writers. They are incomparable to any other KPOP or even western boy bands of today's generation. They were called by people as the Beatles of the 21st century but they said they would rather be called BTS of the 21st century because it's quite a pressure for them to be called the Beatles. Their music genre include, pop, Hiphop, EDM, R&B, Latin Pop, Balad etc. They are known for their deep, poetic and beautiful lyricism, live stage performance and incredible choreography. Getting a ticket to their concerts is like hunger games. Just recently, the youngest member, Jungkook performed during the opening of FIFA. Their Fandom is called ARMY. We are not just bunch of kids and teenagers but adults aging 20s to even 60s and 70s. I am a 47 year old married woman who fell in love with this amazing and talented young men. They are not just talented artists and performers, they are also philanthropist, fashionistas, brand kings and influencers. Whatever products they touch are sold out. They have collaborated with famous western artist such as Nikki Mina, Halsey, Steve Aoke, Cold Play, Charlie Puth and many others. Each member has their own solo songs and OST which charted #1 on ITunes for more than 100 countries. They are indeed the biggest group in the world. And FYI, they only did covers when they were just rookies. Thanks for Reacting to our boys.

Yes they can do it all. Rap, vocals, dance, not to mention funny as heck. 😂💜

If you’re more rap heavy, def check out their songs that are more rap line heavy like RUN BTS, UGH, Outro Tear, or some of their solo work like Arson by J-Hope (highly recommend I drove 9 hours to chicago to see this live), Daechwita by Agust D, or Joke by RM! I think those are some that someone more inclined to hip hop wouldn’t expect BTS to do and would really enjoy dissecting some impressive bars

56 yr old ARMY from Tennessee, USA. I am SO happy to watch a fellow American “get it” instead of being judgmental because it’s different! You said that rap and R&B are your favorite genres, so I’m going to make some suggestions. “Black Swan” (you’ll love it), “ON: Kinetic Manifesto Film Come Prima” (features The Blue Devils Drum Corp and “World of Dance” season 2 winners, The Lab, from California), “Run BTS” Dance practice (this was just released and will give you a great appreciation for their dancing abilities), “Fake Love”, “Louder Than Bombs” (a masterpiece), “We On” and, lastly “Don’t Leave Me”. This last one is, in my opinion, the most underrated BTS song. It’s hauntingly beautiful. BTS has over 300 tracks in their discography when you include all of their solo work. It’s almost impossible to put into words how much they mean to me and what kind of impact they’ve had on my life. I’ll also put in my vote for the 2 best videos to get to know them. These are the only 2 that are up to date as of 2022. “The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS (2022 update)” by Rice Squad and “A Guide to BTS Members: The Bangtan 7” by Taylor. Both are long videos, but if you truly want to get to know them, we ARMYs will be here to support you. Good luck if you choose to jump down the rabbit hole. Borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

The thing I love about them is their lyrics tell the truth no matter how ugly that truth is, but even when they are covering a topic as dark as suicide, they always maintain a thread of hope. Spring Day is one of my favourite songs because of how it describes grief, the sadness, longing and love that come with grief, but also the anger and resentment no one talks about. When I found BTS and Spring Day, I was deeply grieving for someone, and I felt so guilty and ashamed of how angry I was with them when they had been sick... Suga's verse made me cry from relief at realising that my anger, resentment and borderline hatred were normal and it didn't mean I didn't also love the person I lost. Spring Day freed me from that shame and guilt, helped me let go of the anger and made my grief an ache instead of splintered glass. I recommend listening to BTS room live as it is a medley of different songs covering a seriously wide range of genres, and if you want to headbang to very angry rap, I recommend the recent live performance of UGH and Cypher Part 3. If you want to dive more into BTS' lyricism, I recommend checking out some videos of songs explaining the lyrics to BTS songs by DKDKTV, fan favourites include Baepsae Dis-ease Ddaeng You have no idea how insanely talented BTS are at writing lyrics, their wordplay is no joke, and so much gets lost in translation. The main lyricists of the group are the three rappers, RM, Suga and J-Hope :)

Another fact is that BTS is not a pop group, they are originally a hip-hop group but now they cover multiple genres in their music. Almost 70% of their songs have a heavy hip-hop influence. But their few pop songs(in their billions views) are the most known because they blew up in America and the rest of the world. They can REALLY rap and their rapping skills have been compared many times with Eminem without any problem. Thy are the biggest rappers in Korea, and the biggest group in the world, with over 850 awards. Black Pink is a great group but they cannot be compared to BTS for this reasons: 1. BTS turned a company that was near bankruptcy into the most profitable K-pop company, they were nobodies that used to live and sleep in the same bedroom because their company had no money, so it was really really hard for BTS to blow up. While BlackPink were famous since the beginning because their company was huge when they debuted and they had many resources for promotions. 2. BTS were involved in writing and producing their songs since the beginning, their lyrics are so deep and intellectual that are based of books and past thinkers. If you read their song lyrics is like reading a reflection of them. So genuine and honest. While BlackPink lyrics have no deep meaning and are written by other people. Don't get me wrong, I like BP's music and I know how hardworking and talented they are but BTS is in another level. I'm only doing this comparisson for you to have a general idea. If you want to hear the rap line spit some bars react to UGH! and Cypher pt3 at the Yet to come Busan concert. This is a MUST.

New sub from South Africa 🇿🇦 You were wondering about their story…The group was formed by Big Hit Entertainment, from 2010-2012. They were recruited in various ways - auditions mostly, but Jin was approached getting off a bus, because he was handsome and KPop groups have “visuals”. None of them knew each other before signing as they are from different parts of Korea. I will give you a breakdown, from the order of how they are sitting here for Tiny Desk, from left to right: JHope - stage name, real name HoSeok, nickname Hobi; rapper, main dancer, born Feb 1994; Suga - stage name, real name Yoongi, rapper, born March 1993; Jungkook, nickname Jk/Kookie, main vocalist, lead dancer, born Sept 1997 (youngest); V - stage name, real name Taehyung, nickname Tae, vocalist, born December 1995; Jin - stage name, real name SeokJin, vocalist, born December 1992 (eldest); RM - stage name, real name NamJoon, official leader, rapper, born September 1994; Jimin, vocalist, main dancer, born October 1995. They lived together in a very tiny apartment in the early years, then moved to bigger apartments (all seven shared one bedroom in the beginning, with them still sharing in bigger apartments - Jimin, Hobi, and Tae shared, Yoongi and Jin shared, and RM and Jungkook shared for a while, but then they got their own rooms). Up until this year, they still had an apartment that they shared when their schedules needed them to be together, but the lease expired in June 2022. They have had their own homes for a few years, and now they stay in them - but they spent so many years in very close quarters, together 24/7, that they are now an extremely close family, and call each other brothers. The three rappers are the most prolific song writers in the group - well over 100 songs each, and RM approaching 200 - although all seven have written and composed. Suga is the most prolific producer, and he has produced for many other artists too, but again, all have produced, with the rappers taking the lead. They all dabble with instruments, but Suga is the only one who is truly proficient - he is an excellent pianist. They debuted in 13th June 2013. They mostly sing in Korean, with some English phrases but they have three all-English tracks, all of which were No1 on Billboard (Dynamite, Butter, Permission to Dance). Their discography is varied and immense. In KPop, members often have official roles - main dancer, lead dancer or main vocalist or leader. Main is the top, followed by lead. But for BTS, they don’t really follow this strictly anymore, although Jungkook, as the main vocalist, does have the most parts, and tends to hold the song together with backing vocals and ad libs, and Hobi and Jimin tend to take the lead when it comes to dance. Hobi has a background in street dance as a youngster and Jimin went to a performing arts high school and majored in contemporary dance (he also did martial arts as a kid, which influenced his dance somewhat). All Korean men, over the age of 18, have to serve 18-24 months in the military (technically South Korea is still at war with North Korea), before the age of 28 - there was a special extension given, so BTS qualified to defer military service to age 30. But Jin, the eldest will be 30 in December so the time has come for them to enlist. They will be in a break for this and hope to regroup in 2025 - Jin will enlist in December this year. Yoongi won’t be far behind as he will be 30 in March next year, but they all have some solo projects to release over the next few months, after which they will all enlist in turn (I think), so probably by the end of next year they will all be in the army. In Korea, the surname is usually said first, so for example RM would be Kim NamJoon, with Kim being his surname. They also often use “Korean age”, where their age is 1-2 years older than how we would measure it in the West (that’s why I gave you their birth years, you will hear them say their ages, but it can be confusing). BTS is at its best on stage, these guys are the most incredible performers, so Army especially love it if you watch them perform live, although we also love reactions to mv’s too of course - some of their mv’s have a storyline running through them, related to something called the BU, or Bangtan Universe. Oh, and BTS stands for Bangtan Sonyeondan which means Bulletproof Boy Scouts, and they are sometimes referred to as “Tannies”. There is a very strong bond between BTS and Army, and they will defend and protect us, as we will defend and protect them, because they have gone through a tonne of hate, as have we. But sometimes there will be a toxic “fan” who will jump all over you over stupid stuff - so please, if that happens, just block them and ignore, don’t let them get to you - the internet has some crazies. True Army will support your BTS journey, we love seeing new people discover BTS - and you don’t have to love every song, we all have our own taste - as long as you are respectful, it’s cool (and you seem like a respectful dude). BTS fandom is called Army. 💜💜

Really enjoyed your reaction to them! Hope you decide to listen to more of their stuff. I also thought 7 members was a lot at first, but now it feels exactly right - they found a really good balance between all of their skills, musical preferences and their different personalities to bring the best out in each other. BTS actually calls themselves a “team” more than a “boyband”, which is super interesting. They all have solo and group music, and duets/songs with 2, 3 or 4 members, and are very versatile and involved in songwriting. Fun fact: RM (the member with blue hair in this video, the one who speaks fluent english) is about to release a solo album on December 2nd, so we’re all very excited about that!

I'm sure someone already commented on that but both Save Me and Spring Day have MVs. Also, voting for BTS 2021 Festa to react to next. It's a medley of their b-sides from 2013 till 2020. It gives you a good glimpse into their versatility. We don't mind sitting through long videos and absolutely adore when reactors notice the lyrics. The guys have complex, poetic lyrics full of self-reflection and socio-political commentary. The rule of thumb is that the funnier the songs sounds the more serious is the content... Also, a lot of b-sides would only have Concert videos, and if you need them with quality subtitles Enjoy BTS More KZfaq channel is amazing for them. 💜💜💜

I second the suggestion to watch A Guide to BTS Members: The Bangtan 7. It'll answer some of your questions. If you appreciate music, then BTS are the artists for you. I hope we get to watch you continue your journey! Thanks for checking them out!

I like how chilled you are, and how varied your self confessed taste in music is. Most of the people who listen to BTS seem to be very ecclectic in their taste of music. Music is universal. So as it should be. Thanks man.

Yes Spring Day was what we call Queen Song cause it still charting on Melon (Music chart on South Korea) until now since it was release last 2015 , was a very well written and most touching songs of BTS it was written by their Leader the one u said that speak English well with blue hair is called RM, he wrote this song for based on their longing for thier friends inspired by his and Suga (the one with black Mic) missing of their friends. And if u watch or listen to their other songs which is a lot u would be blown by their all kind of music genre hope u can react again to BTS💜💜💜

Yes, they wear makeup One of the reasons why BTS must wear makeup is for the aesthetics of their concepts. Many times the colors they use in their clothes, in their settings, will also help to emphasize their faces or bodies. But they look the same without makeup too they look more attractive without makeup. Thanks for your reaction.

In K-Pop you don't need lighters for concerts . We have Bluetooth synchronized Lightsticks! 😁 For BTS"s fandom they are called 'Army Bombs' as we go by the name of A.R.M.Y. K-Pop is very organized! 😉😄

Yes they are huge.. V (real name Kim Taehyung), the one in the centre.. actually broke the fastest to 1M and 10M (in less than 5hrs) followers on Instagram the day they all joined together. Technically they all did, but among them V holds the Guinness World Records.

Dynamite was all over the radio, nominated for Grammy, in Fortnite, Samsung phone commercials and billboard #1 for several weeks. You would have heard it for sure.

You love music, then this is a group of guys you can relate well with. They love music so much. It shows in their music, their creativity, their lyrics and their performances. The more you see of them, the more you'll understand and appreciate them. Thanks for the reaction. I will keep a look put for your next BTS reaction. Have a great day ahead.

I love that you noticed there was subtitles! and then you went back to the start to see them again! You seemed quite genuine, thanks for giving BTS a try! If you like all types of music...then these 7 artists have you covered! Go ahead! Do a listen of those three songs studio versions if you'd like! Each of those have music videos too as well, I think you'll really have a good time admiring the production of the videos.

My goooood, I loved your reaction, not just because you liked this songs, because it was so genuine and open-minded; many people judge the genre and them for being k-pop artist, korean and other things. You just got another follower, I hope you keep reacting to BTS and get to know them, you'll never regret it and you will fall in love with them. Love, Army 💜💜💜

And to think you didn't even get to see them dance! You can easily get overwhelmed by the volume of content they produce. One way to dip your toe in would be 2021 BTS Festa- BTS Room Live on BANGTANTV's channel. It consists of a medley of song snippets (mostly B-sides) through the years. It will give you an overview of the genres they cover and is 15 minutes (it feels like less) well-spent.

Hello, let me tell you directly, I have known about kpop artists for a long time, there are many singers and great people, but no one can replace them, not because I'm stupid, but because they are the best at what they do and they prove it every time.The first k-pop group to receive Grammy nominations in 5 categories in a row and opened the performance twice... they bring in more than 300 B per year in the country, they have a red ticket, they have the right to travel to more than 100 countries without a visa They are the most listened to and seen people on KZfaq this yearThe most awarded artist in the entire music industry in just ten years (800+ trophies) ...and you know what they are a legend and I'm really proud of these amazing people. In general, not you, it's unbelievable when you don't like their work and cause trouble for no reason

I love your vibe! Even though you have some prejudices (which is fine because we all humans, many of us armies also had prejudice towards them before we became their fans), you've learned to like their music. Tiny desk concert is a great choice to react to them for the first time, i hope to see more reaction to BTS💜

Run Bts Busan Show live performance link kzfaq.info/get/bejne/echnY8qUubzaiX0.html

YES! lyrics are very important with these guys!!

You seem lovely, thanks for chilling with ARMY. 💜 Hopefully the comment-explosion isn't stressing you out too much, lol. I'm also a choir kid that likes several genres. This ended up being THE group for me in my 30s. They do most genres you'd never expect, and it's never half-assed

BTS is great! Their songs always will always have a story to tell, they talk about the good, the bad and the ugly. I think you will really enjoy them. They have music for everyone. Them and their company have the best song writers and producers in my opinion. And their music is phenomenal but once you really get to know who they are then you will see why they are the biggest group in the world. They are just all around a great group of guys. 💜

A great introduction to their background is a video called "This Is BTS: An Introduction To BTS" by the channel "xCeleste" . It's less than 14 minutes long and it perfectly summarizes what they are all about, the meaning behind their group name, their backstory, their intentions and relationship they have with each other as well as their fanbase called "ARMY". There are other amazing intros that go further into detail about each member individually, but this one is a great starting point to the whole group as a whole(it doesn't go into deep detail about each member). I highly recommend you watch it first then go into other longer introduction videos like "A Guide To BTS Members: The Bangtan 7" by Taylor Man or "The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story Of BTS" by Rice Squad as I have seen recommended.

u mentioning u love all genres is so perfect cus BTS does literally eevry single genre ever. ud be so surprsed how many genres they do. its a given tho considering they have 7 members who probably have differing tastes in one way or another. also since u like r&b and rap, itd be good to react to some of the rappers sruff - jhope, suga (agust d), RM r the three rappers and all have one or more solo mixtapes u can watch if u like. also V has an amazing r&b song called 'singularity' if ur interested

I'm 63 year old ARMY and resisted BTS for years because I resented the hype. Then three years ago, I listened and watched and I am so glad I did. BTS is the biggest band in the world, not just in K-Pop, and it is for a damned good reason! Their talent, their lyricism, and their inter-group chemistry are off the charts! They are a once in a lifetime music act. I suggest you watch them live in concert. You will be blown away. Also, they do solo stuff which will kill you. Seriously. Try some rap by RM or Suga (aka Augst D). Also Jin's The Astronaut. AND my fave, ON: Kinetic Manifesto: Film. The dancing is so hard in that video. Please watch! BTW: Dynamite is not a cover. It's one of three English language songs they recorded during the pandemic to cheer up fans!

You need to watch all the documentary of BTS! You'll be very surprised by what they've been through, and stayed together through it all.

omg that was so good thanks for reacting to them hope you react to more bts and blackpink and kpop overall ! it's amazing definitely worth it ! thanx again enjoyed it !😊🙏

thank you for being an open minded! we do appreciate that you give our boys a chance. a chance to hear their music. they are a league of their own and not the typical boy band and kpop group. if you decide to dive in, be ready hehehe THEY ARE THE BIGGEST GROUP IN THE WORLD TODAY winning so many awards not only in South Korea. also, THEY PERFORM BETTER DURING CONCERTS. their dance practices are also the best!..you said you like all types of music, well, THEY DO ALL TYPES OF MUSIC hahaha ENJOY THE DIVE IN! Borahae!

Thank you for reacting to our boys! I loved this so much!💜 I love how open minded you are. so excited to watch you on your BTS journey!

I understand that the vast majority of people (regular people...producers...vocal analysts or MV editors, etc...) react to BTS songs primarily out of curiosity... to see what happens ... why are they so popular and successful ... in an interview, the leader of BTS, RM... explained very clearly the key to their success: 50% - ARMY; 5% - each member of BTS , which means 35% and the remaining 15% they attribute to the agency that had the courage and confidence that these boys will make history in the world of music... rM explained very clearly that this percentage "keeps" them on the ground... This is precisely why, to understand and appreciate the music and personality of the BTS members, you must definitely take it from the beginning, to gradually see how they got so popular... in 2019 I also joined the ranks of "ARMY", I am 54 years old and I am proud of these people who made my life much more pleasant with their existence!

You seem like a nice person. Watching you reacting to the guys was very entertaining in a comforting way. Subscribing 😊💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

“They must be every teenage girls dream”…boy I’m 29 and they’re my dream 😂 each one of them is 🤌🏻 beautiful inside AND out.

They say that they write like a music camp. Each of them has a lyric or a piece of music that they take to the Producer he then can tell them if it fits in the song or another then after they put the song together they decide who will sing which piece, this is decided by all of them. As for Dynamite it was written by an outside source but this is their song. You may have heard it on a commercial or two but this is their song. When they first started they did a few Korean song covers then on MTV Unplugged they covered "Fix You" but all their other songs they sing are their songs. As far as their size in Korea their are large member groups. Groups with 10 to 20 members, so 7 is not that large.

Yeah 7 seems to be too crowded but they have 3 talented rappers and 4 talented singers and the way they combine these seven voices is always so creative. They have been doing this for 10 years but they are still finding new and refreshing combinations and compositions for their songs💜i really like them, and not a teenager btw im probably older than you

Omg this was so cute, they had me dancing and sing along to the three songs, the choice of songs sent e from being happy to sad and i went in a roller coaster of emotions. DynAMIte had me singing and dancing along and i so wanted to be that vinyl record so badly. Save Me had me in my feelings as i was smiling along, swaying and also Jimin, Tae and Jungkook dancing along to the chorus had me laughing so much. Spring Day i had a tear in my eye thru that song and the vocals during it had me in my feelings so badly. And dont get me started on their clothes, i mean Jiminie OMG i was just speechless and on a side note every members english has improved so much im just in love with it, also i love it when they perform with a live band as it just gives off another kind of vibe and its the best when they perform with a live band.

PLS watch the whole BTS concert in Busan 2022 and Guide to BTS by Taylor, then let me know if you still perceive it as teenage music. Ps. I'm 30. from ITALY .. 😉💜

I’m 73 from southern Calif. and Army. They do all kinds of music from RandB to rapping. Their dancing and singing on stage is unbelievable. They are number one world wide. They have broken all records of Beatles Micheal Jackson they work with to artist from around the world. They have been invited to UN three times and invited to White House to meet with President on Asian affairs. Made diplomats in Korea. They sell out venues of 90 thousand in minutes around world. They write and produce their music. They have been together since 2010 just kids and went through hell to get to where they are. Spring day is about a ship wreck in Korea where over 200 school children were killed. Read up on it. Also many videos telling about their rise and about them individually. Also about their charities and their work with unicef. These boys would reactive hours on end lived in a one bedroom apt. They are humble kind talented respectful one of a kind. Also they have us Army the biggest Army in the world. Millions of us are devoted

I'm a 58 yr old Aussie lady who LOVES BTS!!!! My gateway into BTS in 2017 was MIC Drop (Steve Aoki) REMIX back in 2017(Recommend this one next!!), which my daughter now almost 29 years old showed me the MV as she knows I love hip hop and rap music from the 80s/90s such as Bel Bev Devoe, Heavy D & the boys, C & C, Naughty by Nature, NWA, Public Enemy, Jodeci, Easy E, Snoop ,Dr Dre, Eminem and so many more. With BTS I was totally blown away by their talent straight away. They are so different to any boyband I knew and I am so glad I ventured down their AMAZING very LARGE Rabbit hole!! Like many other ARMY we are dedicated and protective. I will gladly subscribe just to watch you discover for yourself why BTS are Bangtan Sonyeondan Korean for BULLET PROOF BOYSCOUTS! Now (BTS) Beyond The Scene. Great reaction!! Thank you Hope you enjoy the ride!! Here's a few of my BTS favs MV's......

I like you were so open minded and could appreciate music as it is. As an Army makes me really happy to see you could enjoy BTS.

They're amazing♡ they're 7 guys, 3 rappers and 4 vocalists

Hello! New subscriber here. I'm 53 years old and I'm ARMY about 2 years now. I love these guys so much, both for their talent and for sweet and humble personalities. I hope you will keep react to BTS. Borahae! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

This is their own song not a cover. Not only teenage girls support them. 3 rappers and 4 vocalists.

It is not important to be their fan, it is not important to be part of the army. The main thing is if you decide to listen to them and love them as they are. See all their tears, selfless work. The main thing is to see the meaning of their words, which are written only on the basis of their experience. That's when you will understand that it turns out that Bithyes and their songs are authentic and real 💜

Thanks for your open mind and genuine reaction I’m sure the army has filled you in. The biggest things I will add….everything they do is better live, they can each hold their own solo, both the rappers and vocalists. And most of army(fans)are actually over 20yrs old. They have like 300 songs, Personally outro tear live at wembley is my favorite rapline song that I’ve been lucky enough to witness in person follow3d by the truth untold by vocalists. Try Run bts (not run-that’s actually a different song😂) live at busan to see some crazy dancing. 💜

I have been an ARMY since day one and I'm over 60+. Not just teenagers! ARMY comes in all ages and genders.

Loved your reaction. I'm 38 and because of the pandemic =more screen time I discovered them and I was fascinated. I thought I might be a weird one cause probably they would have mainly young fans, but I was sooo wrong. Because of their high quality music they have a very diverse fandom. And they are amazing people/ role models. Please,as others recommended, watch Taylor's guide - the bangtan 7. We will watch it with you. It is well made/ edited and you will find the answer to most of your questions, plus you'll hear snippets of many different songs that will inspire you on what to listen next 🙂

what knocks me out about this is in dynamite, the key change I love, and everyone else strains and pushes those notes out, and Jimin just opens his mouth and the notes fall out. sheesh. Save me, J-Hope slayed me. I had to stop and rewind too. You think this is good, they do this while dancing, live, on a huge stage with backing vocals and HOT mics. People go nuts over them doing that with all their songs, most don't realize how hard parts of this song are to sing. and Jin... his vocals are so clear.

I'm 47 and love these guys so much

I am glad you are admiring their lyrics too ! ✨✨

Thanks for reacting to BTS ! I think they will surprise you on many levels, you're on to a whole lot of surprises ! BTS has, no lie, the wildest range of music any artist have and hundreds of songs. That means, no matter what your genre is, you'll find songs you like and some you'll enjoy less. Anyways, as much as medias like to put groups in a box, BTS is no typical "boyband" and even in the Kpop industry, they're totally different. They're pionniers in some way and to these days, I haven't seen any artist that big being so normal out of stage. They're brothers, and I'm saying that in the less cheesy way ever :’) They literally act like brothers, bickering, laughing, crying, annoying each other... everything. But most of all, they've been working very hard for a decade, literally starting from scratch in a company that was on the verge on bankruptcy only to have made this company one of the biggest economic sources in South Korea nowadays. BTS members write, produce, take part in the artistic concepts, music videos, dance choreographies, ideas... Everything basically, in collaboration with their company staff and artists. They're really on a line of their own and I think you'll see that for yourself when you react to more. That being said, I can't wait to see more of your reactions :) Also, I think you should definitely react to the different fan-made guides about BTS. They'll put you on many informations about the group, the members, how they work and everything basically. Because above learning about their group history, these guides make you understand their music a lot more in some way. That was my case when I first became a fan (and I'm sure I'm not the only one). I guess learning about the background of each member, their background as a group and the way they work for their craft, makes you understand the music (and the artistry) in a much more complete way. The 2 most complete (and amazingly made) guides are : - A Guide to BTS Members: The Bangtan 7 (by Taylor) - THIS IS BTS | Introduction to BTS (by xCeleste) In any case, I hope you'll enjoy the journey !!

Dynamite has been used in ads and commercials, on lots of social media apps, so you have likely heard it before! It's their song.

I am almost 50 years old and they are also my dream, hahahah. Hundreds of spectacular songs. I bet you heard this on a SAMSUNG commercial and you didn´t know it was BTS. Dynamite was played everywhere. You will find they do lots of genres, from Hip Hop to pop, and anything in between. They are amazing performers, huuuuuuge talents the 7 of them. 3 rappers and 4 vocalists. Welcome to the BTS journey. I´ve been ARMY for almost 3 years and I haven´t listened to all their catalogue yet. They look so relaxed and chill cause 10 years of extremeley hard work

I subscribed when you rewound to the beginning of Save Me to read the subtitles and said, "lyrics are important!" That's why I love BTS, because their lyrics are important. I was around for music in the 60s and value musicians with a good message. Thank you for checking out Bangtan Sonyeondan (BTS's Korean name). Had to edit this when I heard you mention that you feel like you need a lighter to hold up and sway. We have lightsticks called ARMY bombs (ARMY - Adorable M.C. for Youth is the fandom name). We bring our lightsticks to concerts and use them at home too to connnect via bluetooth to have them sync to the music.

I'm 46 and love these guys. People have their bias' but I'm OT7 it's to hard for me to choose. Everyone is so good and unique in their own right. I dont feel one is better then the other.... These guys are considered to be the best in the world. They are 4x grammy nominated. Won multple awards for multiple years at the billboards. MTV awards. American music awards and many many more. I think as of now they have over if not close to 800 awards from around the world. I would say Black pinkis 2nd but really Stray Kids, TXT, Seventeen they are all about they same. But BTS is beyond music. And the reason they are who they have. They bring in like 4 billion a year to their economy. Watch the guide to bangtan 7 by Taylor. These guys are amazing. They sing in so many genres. Right now they are on break for 2 years and only focusing on solo stuff because they have to go to the mandatory military. Jin who is the oldest has to go 1st and then front here they will each go when it's time. But they have plans on reuniting in 2025 when their military will be done. But there is so much BTS content out there to watch study listen watch. Studio is awesome live will blow you away. Please enjoy. Go down that rabbit hole lol.

Bts are massive around the world but they are also super popular in America they had 4 nights in LA sofi stadium sold out as well and Las Vegas as well was sold out plus sold out wembly stadium in London. They won 700+awards. Actually dynamite the first song you heard has 1.6 billion views to be exact. Their fans as well aren't just teens and kids their fans called army has no limits I'm 31 and been army since 2013. This song has always been BTS song no one else's they made this for army to get through the pandemic.

20:10 - "I don't know if any BTS fans watch this" LOL. Here we come. Your video popped up in my recs and it looks like it did in others' as well. Some recommendations for you: Festa Room Live, which is a medley of their B-sides through their career. Mic Drop-Steve Aoki Remix (the non-remix is fire too, but doesn't have a music video), Dope, Fire, Idol, Not Today are all bangers. For slower, more ballad type songs: Spring Day, Black Swan, or Life Goes On. Dynamite is actually their song, not a cover. it was everywhere when it came out, even in the States. You probably heard it in stores or on the radio.

I will give you a brief overview of how they came together. Sometimes intro videos being recommended to you skip basic information. In 2006 record producer Bang Shi hyuk aka Hitman Bang formed the music label/ company "BIGHIT entertainment" after leaving jyp entertainment label. He comanaged a few groups with jyp to stay afloat in the business. But the groups his company put together and comanaged barely brought in any success. Bang shi hyuk wanted to revolutionarize the music industry that treated artists as puppets and wanted to change it and put artistic integrity first. He didn't know how to do that tho. In 2010 Sleepy, a rapper and friend of bang pd went to a underground rappers club perfomance, where he saw 16 year old Kim Namjoon aka Runch Randa, his then rap persona. He then went an talked about this kid to bang pd. Bang pd saw that the kid has insane lyric writing and rap skills and he couldn't waste this opportunity. Namjoon auditioned in front of bang pd, then became the first ever trainee for bighit. Several of namjoons rapper friends like supreme boy, iron etc joined bighit with him, The temporary name given to this rap group, was bullet proof boys or BPB. The group participated in competitions and perfomances. Bang pd then advertised an audition for positions in the group BPB. Thats how min yoongi (underground rapper, called gloss also a producer)found a poster and audiotioned for the group. Bang pd promised him he wouldn't have to do performance or dance and that he would be a producer. Jung hoseok (Street dancer, part of a group called neuron), was a trainee in jyp competitions, after winning a cash prize, he moved to bighit. He joined the rap group and then watched the other rappers freestyling after moving into the dorms of the company. He picked up rapping from watching and sometimes joining the rappers freestyle sessions. At one point they had 7 rappers in the group, Kim namjoon, min yoongi, jung hoseok, iron, supreme boi, kidoh, i11even. Then namjoons (RM) friends left the group dude to several troubles in the company. Only yoongi (suga) and hoseok (jhope) stayed. Bang shi hyuk then changed the idea for the group, and decided they would make it a more idol type group. Jin was recruited on the street after he got off a bus. A worker at bighit saw him and grabbed him and asked him to join the company. Jungkook was a 13 year old who auditioned for a TV program called superstar k, he failed the auditions but got calls from 7 different companies. He chose Bighit after seeing RMs rap videos on KZfaq. He came to the bighit dorm a few days after jin. Bangpd conducted more auditions. That's how Taehyung who was from a small town found the auditions after accompanying his friend who was participating. The company staff saw him sitting there and asked him if he wants to give it a go. he was the only one who passed from his town. Jimin was a top contemporary dance student at an art school who auditioned for bighit after his teacher encouraged him. He was the last member to join in 2012. The group debuted as BTS in 2013.

Hello! thanks for reacting to BTS. They all are a buch of talent by themselves and also as a group. They all have solo albums and their talents are out of this world. You can confirm that by watching this videos. I recommend you to watch: 1. Who is bts- by Xceleste 2. and A guide to bts members: the Bangtan 7 by Taylor Nakamoto. Songs you MUST listen: 1. Mic Drop 2. Black Swan 3. Fake love 4. On: Kinetic manifesto film come prima

Thank you for reacting to BTS. I love their music, their personality, and everything 💜

BTS writes and produced most of their music. Their dancing along with vocals are amazing. "ON" Kinetic Manifesto is my favorite.

You gotta watch them dance now. ON KINETIC FILM is the best you can see how talented they are at dancing :)

Hello. BTS is the most successful and well-known KPop group worldwide, not only they sing and dance spectacularly, they write their lyrics and music. Despite their fame, they are still simple and very respectful boys. The group is made up of 3 rappers and 4 vocalists. I recommend you watch some of the classic videos (songs) : 'ON' Kinetic Manifesto Film, Black Swan, Fake Love, Blood, Sweat and Tears. I love BTS, you have a new subscriber. One of his most recent: "Run BTS" concert in Busan. They have been together for 12 years, 3 as a trainee, and 9 years since their debut (2013). They were barely teenagers and the youngest was only 13 years old when he began his training. They do not consider each other friends or colleagues, but family.

Thank you for this reaction. And I have to say that BTS are not comparable to any other group or band (male or female). They are the biggest group in the world, and they have broken some Beatles records. They have had several #1 on Billboard Hot100, and they have been nominated for Grammys 5 times in three years. They write, compose and produce their own songs, and have many collabs with other artists like Coldplay

Spring Day was dedicated to the lives lost in the Sewol ferry tragedy and the families who were left behind. There is a video made by someone which dissects the song and MV. I cant remember the exact title of the youtube video tho. On the surface, the song sounds like a breakup song but diving deeper, it is really about coping with death and loss of someone dear. 😢

BTS is the most versatile and dynamic artist of their time....their achievement is far from what other kpop artist have ever achieved....

Let's go to "ON(kinetic manifesto film", "Mic drop" and "Black swan". You can take a quick glimpse of their music and versatility. I usually prefer reactors watching their introduction vides after experiencing their MV at least 2~3. Thank you for giving chance to BTS and your open mind! *And, yes, they have make up for the performance just like actors have makeup for fliming💜💜

Loved this!!! I’d highly suggest watching BTS 2021 FESTA. It shows a lot of their discography! I’d highly suggest putting captions! Also, black swan and fake love

You did not just ask for their storyyyyy!!!!!! I havent even read the comments yet, Armys here they come 🥰🥰🥰🥰 welcome to BTS world.. 💜💜💜

Loved this first reaction to BTS, thank you for being so open-minded and paying attention. I feel like you would like one of the members Yoongi's solo work (the second one on the left with a black jacket). He's one of the three rappers in BTS and has written and produced two albums, Agust D and D-2, under his solo name Agust D. His music vary from hardcore diss tracks to his haters (many used to look down on him for becoming an Idol from Korean underground rap) to softer or deeper songs where he raps about themes like mental health, youth, the world, life, and his own experiences and struggles. His use of words in incredible. I hope you continue watching even more of BTS (you'll be surprised how talented and humble all of them are) but even if not I would recommend checking these albums out in your free time :)

Hahahaha. I'm a 60 year old Aussie nana and I absolutely love them, especially the rap line - Suga, RM, and J-Hope. Thank you for reacting to this one. Once you go down the BTS rabbit hole there is no coming back and I'm looking forward to seeing your reaction to some of their other live performances.

What a great first reaction 👏🏻💜immediately subscribed. Your just so nice ☺️ I have a feeling this going to be one of my favourite channels

Great reaction! I appreciate how open minded you are. As you can tell, ARMYs are very passionate about BTS. Was going to recommend Taylor’s Guide to BTS. A lot of times they put so much symbolism into their music videos and without being Korean, we miss the cultural and language context. I highly recommend checking out explanation videos (viewers love a combo MV/explanation video). Since you enjoyed Spring Day, this is a good place to start by watching the MV and I recommend the Bulletproof Vibes explanation. Generally the first that pops up in a search is the best. Ugh MV and the DKDKTV explanation for example. Even when it seems light like with Idol, check out DKDKTV’s explanation. All of these things will make you appreciate them even more. 💜

Thank you for being so open minded, i'm glad you enjoyed the songs! Can't wait for you to hear more!
