BTS made me read many books What school was never able to do😂 They should show BTS's MV to students

This MV is the 'Thriller' of KPop. Game changing. I'm so bummed I missed the Wings era, which is probably my fave. So much to chew on, and the songs, the choreo, the visuals, are all so amazing. Namjoon thought they had hit their peak with this era, and you can see why. And I don't get what is the big deal with 'Expensive Girl'. I find the song hilarious and NJ is my ultimate bias! He was a kid when he recorded it, and it's a part of his history as an artist. Maybe he is still embarrassed by it, maybe he isn't, but it exists so to pretend it doesn't, doesn't make much sense to me. React to it on Patreon if you're worried about getting censored by YT or 'cancelled' by your subscribers! I'd love to watch you react to it.

I don’t know if you realized this but the one who turns around and smiles is actually V

when i saw jin kiss the statue and then saw taehyung with the wing scars all i thought was "so jin is kissing tae?" but it wasn't till later that i realized tae is supposed to be a fallen angel and temptation that it finally made sense lol

Anyone else like the video before watching because you know it's gonna be good? Still one of my absolute favorite reactors.

"Double suga and double jhope" 😆 I feel you..

I agree with your thought process regarding seeing the whole body of work vs. the pieces that are accepted as of a certain quality standard. To get to know an artist we must be a witness to their journey ... all of their journey.

I love your editing and your facial expressions when Jin kissed the winged statue. This is my favorite video especially because J Hope had so much presence in the song, video, and Album. The Wings Album is my favorite 😍. Thanks so much for checking out both videos.

1:29 these are the Wings pairs 1:39 The Fall of Rebel Angels 1:45 Bach - Mass in B minor 2:18 ceiling of Ljubljana Cathedral 2:20 The Lament of Icarus 2:50 picture from Begin and Reflection 2:57 Absinth 3:08 Michelangelo - Pieta but body of Jesus is not sculptured yet 4:48 movie Chatroom 5:00 Landscape with the Fall of Icarus 6:46 Buxtehude - Passacaglia in D minor 7:31 it’s V, V covered Jin's eyes and shows him the statue 8:13 V has scars on his back, statue has his wings 8:17 definitly V 8:41 Nietzsche - "You must have chaos inside you to give birth to dancing star" 8:54 Jin's face cracked similar to poster for the movie Black Swan Hope you watch Blood Sweat and Tears Japanese Version (and I Need U and Run Japanese Versions) and The Wings Tour Trailer

I feel like BST Jimin is unlike any other Jimin. He was purely and 10000% angelic looking in the MV. I can't and won't get over it.

I remember when BST first came out and I’d play it everywhere, so my mom knew about it and whenever we had Peanuts at home she’d sing “Mani mani mani” which means peanut in my language lmao so when Isten to BST all I hear is “PEANUT! PEANUT! PEANUT”🤣

BS&T is in a whole different level the Art and symbols in there is crazy. hands down one of my favourite BTS songs.

Would you listen to RM’s mixtape MONO? Those tracks would definitely contribute to knowing his trajectory and the almost balladeer that is RM. Tokyo and Seoul just capture the moods of contemporary urban so well...

This song shares the title of my favourite BTS song with Black Swan. Those two just, ugh. Chef finger-kiss. But the MV for this I can watch a million times and still find something new. Just art. Simply art.

I have a doc of every reference made, a flow chart and an essay on this music video lol

the way you pause to point out all the details and how they link to other music videos is so satisfying to watch, why didnt I discover this channel 7 months ago???

Actually, Jin didn't get to do that vocal run. He also barely has any lines in this song, sadly. At least he plays an important role in the mv.

Wow, I didn’t realise you hadn’t seen it yet

You are absolutely right about needing to learn about a person's mistakes! Here's what Namjoon said in the UNICEF speech: "Maybe I made a mistake yesterday, but yesterday’s me is still me. I am who I am today, with all my faults. Tomorrow I might be a tiny bit wiser, and that’s me, too. These faults and mistakes are what I am, making up the brightest stars in the constellation of my life. I have come to love myself for who I was, who I am, and who I hope to become." ###

Wow an army for a year now congrats 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 get ready to get blown away by the meaning of this vd. Its mind blowing 🤯🤯🤯 again congrats plz stay safe n healthy 💜😎💜

I just binge watched the Big Hit new idol survival show and they quote Demian in the show and the entrance in and out of the "I-land " is an egg. Crazy - Bang PD must really be into that book.

This made me emotional because BS&T was the video that made me an army The explanation got me hooked. I became an army because of the symbolism and the BU🥺

Me at 9:00: "IT'S THIS - Oh yeah, you were going to watch it explained, too. I'll shut up now lol"

Time to watch mama 2016😂 God I can't get over that "MOMENT"

I always enjoy your reactions because you choose to really dive into everything about BTS. The appreciation for their depth and artistry is evident. I 💜 you!

this is what i mean by: BTS changed my life,, they will make you think about yourself deeper and deeper your life will change after understanding their deep universe, also there is many other explaination about the BU more related to the storyline ,and it is insaine too i really hope you will react to X.Celeste storyline explaination cuz there us more and it is not over yet,, welcome to oyr family 💜💜💜 luv U...

This week Big Hit said they would release a game for explaining the wings storyline

Blood Sweat & Tears and Black Swan are all masterpieces and grammy worthy performance.

The visuals, the dancing, the song, this is one of my favorite bts songs. If I wasn’t on board 100% with bts before I heard this song I certainly was after I heard this

Wings is THE era 😌👏💜

On your point about Joon's early song, I think you're giving it too much credit. It didn't represent a low or an evil or a significant example of a different him. It was literally a cover he did (he did nothing with it artistically) when he was feeling conflicted about being an idol and still trying to fit in with hip-hop nobodies he was already way better than. If you feel like you want to see it, fine. But you have a platform and people just use it as an opportunity to laugh at him or embarrass him. So I get your point about seeing all sides of someone to know them, but knowing that he once covered a song that isn't even as explicit or bad as some hit songs today doesn't accomplish this. It doesn't represent a side of him. It's just a dumb thing he did. Idk...he's just been very clear about how he feels about it and it was over a decade ago...it just feels disrespectful to drag it up and laugh about it with a bunch of Baby ARMYs and antis. (Cause I can tell you, most ARMYs will not click on it. I usually take it as my cue to unsubscribe.) Anyway, I think your reactions are very thoughtful, generally. I don't think you'll get anything of value out of reacting to a dumb cover about a sexy girl. Just my opinion. He has half a dozen other songs from around that time that are way more reflective of his prodigious talents and all of the b-sides on his first mix are fire. React to those. I promise you'll get a better picture of who RM was and you'll enjoy the song too (EG isn't even a banger...it's just boring. I personally wonder what kind of humor you have to have to enjoy it. It's like a 6th grader laughing at a swear word.)

I realized while watching this that being a song about temptation Jimin was perfect to start it all off 0.0 dang they did it on purpose. BTS Grr. Nice reaction. -baby army NY USA

Happy ARMY-versary!

I think another great thing about BTS is that there is no one correct meaning. It's open to interpretation, and help individuals to relate it the way they want. Thus allowing to work on ourselves, inspiring us to be better people.

They kill every performance they do and that's why there no1 all over the world,there amazing.

you made a good point with black and white... it was def indicative. 💜 i think armys are just protective of bts cos even when they are clearly good people, many still scrutinize and look for something wrong to attack them with. but personally, i'm the type of person who'd take both the good and bad, as long as it's real. and yes, i'm really happy bts promotes self-acceptance and discovery... embracing your shadows and not just the image you portray to the public is the best way to live. me too. i need deep stuff to engage me. but you're absolutely right on the talentry, music, and looks being more than enough in itself. hahahaha 💜

One of the reasons why i fall inlove in BTS is that their MV's are so meaningful and educational as well as their lyrics. Ofcourse i love their characters,.. 1st time to became a fan of artists and silly me that im 43😊😊😊

Ah man I just love your reactions looool

When the album Wings came out, B.S.&T.. was the song that sealed the deal for me... BTS weren't just churning out popular songs like Dope or Fire, I knew that they were true artists. Never regretted it, and 2016 was before they were such a globally known icon of pop music... They were famous in Korea, and some Asian countries, but that was it... I'm glad you finally came around to listening this song, a true masterpiece. By the way, maybe you should consider a live stream (you're so good at it now... lol) to watch the series of short films they released in that period. Each members tells a personal story, a coming-of-age story, of course; it is so well done. Here's the first one, to get you going... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r7hnZqxh35vRo2Q.html That was a second proof, as if I needed one back then, to realize just how thoughtful and great artists BTS are. They are not just a "boy band". it infuriates me when the media describes them as a "boy band", they bring BTS down to the One Direction level when they are leagues ahead...

When he said about an inappropriate song of namjoon cmon y'all know 👁👄👁 But jokes aside that he respected it and wants to react to it off camera 😌💜 And since RM deleted it and all we just use it as an inside joke even though it didn't reflect them it was just a cover

please react to *Suga feat Suran - So Far Away* 🖤🤘

What you are watching is just the Explanation to blood sweat and tears you should now watch BTS story line explosions but there is still something you need to watch like make sure you watch Bts Japanese Fake Love because that also implies to the story just search on KZfaq Bts Japanese MV and is should show up. Also you should definitely watch Bts jungkook Euphorium and after that PLEASE watch Bts Love your self Highlight Reel that is a big big part of the story and lastly is to read Bts WEBTOON story because that story has a Big impact in this story as it explains what Jin is doing in all this and what he’s trying to accomplish. A lot of people don’t read the story and that is ok but when you watch the Bts story line explosions it will still explain it to you but you might have not known a lot of thing that go along with this story. OHH and also in the beginning of the explosions video it talks about something important that is when Bts FIRST start like the in the MV Boy In Luv so you should watch that to 😁

In a different vid, Suga had explained that when the pipes were going up, he had bumped his head. JK said that being in that swing he had really hurt his back. RM didn't like the smoke. I am currently reading this book and it's really good. Glad you finally got to check out this MV.

This MV is the first time they dressed as sensual men instead of hip hop or school boys. It was a real change in their visuals. It was also a different sound for them. Also if you note Suga is playing a harpsichord with huge dangling pipes. Of course lots of clues. This MV brought them alot of new fans.

Still my favourite. (The painting that captures Jin's attention is Fall of the Rebel Angels. ... The organ relates directly to Demian by Hermann Hesse.)

The very first time I ever heard or saw bts was on Jimmy Fallon when they did "idol" and "I'm fine" I loved them immediately and then fell down the rabbit hole. So I agree, "idol" is a great song.

It would be up to you whether watch 'it' or not, but I don't recommend you to react to 'it', since RM himself deleted 'it'. Not reacting is at least we can do to respecting the artist who deleted 'it'. Thanks.

You are so openminded and I love that Your kid(s) are so lucky to have you as a father that can learn them these types of things

Thank you for this reaction! BST was my very first BTS MV when I was simply a curious onlooker who had heard about BTS but had no idea what the "fuss" was all about. It took me 11 months to get curious enough to have the desire to find out more. BST caught my attention coz of the imagery (I m a geek when it comes to philosophy, mythology, literature, etc.) After that first time, there was not turning back. I went down the rabbit hole so fast and so deep that I m still catching my breath after almost a year! Though it's tough to choose ONE favourite BTS song BST will always hold a special spot in my heart for it represents the very special connection I feel with this beautiful souls, their amazing work & this brilliant & wonderful fam - the BTS ARMY! Absolutely love watching all your reactions to BTS. Looking forward to more! Love & light to all; stay safe 💜

Wait so long for your reaction to this song, I almost screamed when I saw the notification 😅💜

I was just discussing it with a friend yesterday of how cool it is that you can not get into BU at all and still appreciate them or you can get into just a little bit, just to watch the trailers and all that, or go deeper and read the notes, or go deeper and read the webtoon, or even deeper and read Demian etc. And at any point you can just stop and the story will be great just hinting about more, even if you get to the bottom of it because it won't ever be fully explained to the very end because there are too many metaphors and symbols in it. This notion that you can stop at whatever level you are comfortable and not lack anything anything crucial is honestly so amazing to me. PS I personally recommend to watch Blood sweat and tears dance practice because the MV was so busy feeding us philosophy it skipped over the dance so much and it's a great choreo!

Can't wait to see you go back to the beginning of their music! It's a journey

that song ends up being a joke that people use to belittle joon and for that reason we try not to have people make public reactions. it's not indicative of much but him being a teenager. i agree with others that the existence of that song make him more human but he himself is embarrassed of that song and i see no reason to have people look at that when he has more work that actually shows who he is and what he's like

If I had to choose one song as their iconic song it would be Blood Sweat and Tears! I love the live performances.

I missed this when you uploaded it, but I'm glad you finally got to experience the absolutely bananas visual/audial psychological explosion that is "Blood, Sweat, & Tears". The video is amazing all on its own (no matter if you enjoy the deeper explanation or are just happy with the surface), but I think you'd really enjoy the 2016 MAMA performance of "Boy Meets Evil"/"Lie"/"Blood, Sweat & Tears"/"Fire" they do, with some amazing choreo that also contains references to the BU and the Demian story.

First ✌ I love this song and I was just waiting for you to react to it

i enjoy yr reaction, cause it feels real, not forced, thank you.

Have you ever watched the "Classical Musicians React" series? They really do a great job of breaking down the music. Plus it's really fun to watch them go crazy trying to figure out the organ pice that Suga was playing. When I watched Blood, Sweat and Tears I saw a lot of imagery of temptation and snippets of the seven deadly sins. I loved the absinth references and the green smoke had some serious opium den vibes. Fun stuff! I have a degree in lit so I love the deep dive stuff and references to literature.

i am SO happy right now bc of this :D

I love this reaction, it's so meticulous and complete 👍 subscribed to you 👌

You should watch the dance practice if you're interested in the choreography, it shows it entirely as a whole and it's pretty intricate.

Man! I like the way you think! We will get along so well (metalhead to metalhead 🤘🏻and hardcore into BTS)

I said Finally.. too

They are Hard working guys. They're keeping us Fans Happy. N I'm like you I had to find out about BTS. I'm in the Rabbit hole. Love BTS!

Glad you enjoyed it🎶😎💜

BST is my favorite song and mv of all time😁

I have that exact same calendar hanging by my desk 😂 💜

BST is a masterpiece.

You should see the MAMA 2016 performance of BS&T with the end scene of Taehyung and Jin. Ps, also the dance practice is amazing.

Happy Bts anniversary

You know what day it is tomorrow? I will be waiting for that reaction 😉

I would love to read the Book.

Please react to Jin singing MOM, Autumn outside the post office, or I Love You.

You can watch WINGS Tour trailer next, they are related.

Jimin wrote the melody for BST

This story line Remember the Untold truth of the garden Eder and they have red apple if they eat apple the eyes will open ..when RM drink the color of poison and when Jungkook a whack trop down to his figures both of was drowning .When RM talking about knowledge Good and evils .Angela falling.

Just to let you know that they all (7) have read Damien from Herman Hesse for that album not just Rm ;).

Just what to say that my favourite song is epiphany sung by Jon,amazing.

Yes, you should react to all the BTS songs here. We would love to see your reaction, specially of old RM songs.... 😂😂😂

I prefer the Bookish Theory explanation video. Check it out. BS&T was voted the 59th BEST video of all time by experts in various fields @NYTimes. In fact, when the list was first compiled, ARMYS brought this MV to their attention and it was then put in at #59. Pretty cool, right.

15:00 Yes, Black Swan. Have anyone told you that Blood Sweat and Tears is also the hint of Black Swan?@@ Bc there are lots of elements of Black Swan movie in this MV.

I know you've got Euphoria coming up soon and there's one part in Euphoria that references Danger. Danger's not really officially part of the BU but it does have scenes that were later incorporated into the storyline. So you might wanna check it out anyway. The song's good too IMO.

And people still want to compare them to regular pop boy bands... Regular boy band topics: love, break ups, flex, having fun... BTS: philosophy, psychology, mental health ,greek mythology, societal issues, current events, planets, whales, other myths and fairy tales, loss of passion for art etc etc

I love idol🥰🥰🥰🥰

i get what u say about seeing their past work, both good and bad, to appreciate their growth. but i think the reason some army sugggested u watch it in private is because like myself they might have seen reactors watch old bts videos/songs (that the members are clearly embarrassed about and wish didn't exist for everyone to see) and made fun of them or laughed at them or watched those videos for shock value and it's just cringey to watch. but u have an analytical approach to things so u might be different.

Take a look to the rap line in bts outro (Tear). So, good!

If you want to go deeper with another view try "bookish theories" video on this, too

I don’t think the explanation video touched on this but Jungkook's floating scene is probably a reference to his car accident. Hence why his body looks kind of broken in that part.

If the "RM" song someone has asked you to check out is "Trouble".... It's not even his song. It's just a cover he did YEARS ago. Also... if you do watch it, know that it is just RM... Jin is not on the track although most lyric videos have Jin singing the hook, for whatever reason. Either way... if you watch it, I suggest just watching it on your own.

Watch the Japanese mv for this song. Different, and more symbolism.

Jhooooooooooooooooooope

When he mentioned the background I remember I think it’s similar to the background in boy with love right ?

I know this is not related, but the Dreamcatcher’s poster wins my heart 😔

Actually not all 4 vocalists got to do the run. Jin only has 1 line in this whole song (when the hands come away from his face) and if I'm not wrong it's intentional. That line gives a hint to what is going on in the video.

I recommend you watch the Japanese version of the MV (my absolute favorite BTS MV so far) on your own time it's very storyline heavy, you could do a reaction but you'd have to heavily edit it bcs Universal Music Japan is crazy with strikes.

🤗🇦🇷

I think it's Bach, some part of a Mass

Shit man, I thought you were going to do the band ?Blood Sweat and Tears". "You made me so very happy" was playing on all the stations in 'sixty nine when I was in basic training.

you have to watch the japanese version, its just as wild

You might be interested to check out henry together on youtube (not necessarily to react to just for your enjoyment). It showcases musical prodigies and at the end of each episode the host (who’s an idol) and the guest would freestlyle. Episode 2 guest is a14 yr old guitarist and they did a cover of dna (the host played the violin) on ep 2.2. I just discovered it myself.
