If you want to learn about Busan dialect (satoori) furthermore check out this video I made! : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jt90gMeIzq3FhGQ.html

"President Kim Namjoon" thank you for addressing him correctly

bts don't just make bops. they also tell stories.

All I can say is that South Koreans must be eternally grateful and proud to have these seven gems born in their nation and spreading their culture across the world. Thanks to Danny and David too for bridging the gap for us international ARMYs! An absolute blessing!

He rlly got me when he said President Kim Namjoon lmaooo

President Kim NAMJOON!!!!🤧🤧🤧🤧

Well, 12 year old Joon did write a poem about reunification of the two Koreas

I think J Hope's pride for where he comes from is evident if you listen to this and Ma City when he talks about Gwangju's role in democratic reforms. Everyone focuses on Jimin's dialect which he goes into when he gets really mad or passionate, and everyone knows Suga is from Daegu...but J Hope is just as proud of where he comes from.

Isn't it funny that V said "Silla Hwarang descendants" years earlier to actually become an Hwarang in a TV series?😂😂😂

its ironic when taehyung has that line about silla's hwarang cause that song came out in 2013 and he stared in the k-drama (hwarang) in 2016

"NOW ITS TIME FOR PRESIDENT KIM NAMJOON TO WRAP UP EVERYTHING AND END THE FIGHT" OUR PRESIDENT

Everyone say it with David, "PRESIDENT KIM NAMJOON"

did anyone else get weirdly over emotional about the giving the baseball to a kid part? just me? its just so nice. what a great cultural standard to have.

Tae playing one of the Hwarang makes his line about them super Hilarious in Hindsight.

Many years have passed and their fetus era songs are as strong as it was before. I'm happy you guys plan to explain this though I've read many things about satoori oh and KING NAMJOON and Happy Birthday Hobi

One of reason why I stan for BTS. I learnt so much about South Korea, I love how they really proud of their culture. And thanks to DKDKTV too for their effort for the explaination series =D

No wonder literature teacher loved this song, after decade of knowing Korean culture BTS truly driving me to learn Korean so that I can fully understand beauty of their lyrics and how wise they are

David can't stop smiling while explaining. I can feel the pride you have as korean. BTS is too precious, how can such young men have deep care for their culture. President Namjoon for the next Korea's Leader!!

Leave it to DKDK to really dig in and explain what’s the real message in a song. Been listening to this for so many years and i knew that they made this song with pride of where they’re coming from. But listening to this explanation makes me realise & respect BTS even more because this song actually has more meaning. And Thanks too DKDK for this great, informative explanation, this is so interesting. I always interested in Korean history, so this explanation make me understand a lot more about Korean history.

Paldogangsan is one of BTS' best songs

Y'ALL did just hear him say "president king namjoon" ?? that's hella dope

here's an explanation for the pregnant part from an army called muish: "I’ve conceived. The watermelon from Moodeung mountain is 20 kg and strong. 8-9th month being the season of watermelon harvest on Moodeung Mtn. Also the 9th month being the end of pregnancy. Harvest/fruition metaphors here. Moodeung mountain is a mountain by Gwangju Metropolitan in Jeolla Province, and they grow special type of watermelon here that are often 20 kg (44 lbs). He is bragging about large harvest of fruits from this region, and comparing this harvest to “__kg and strong”, which is often a phrase used to describe newborn healthy boys. From the first look, he’s an obvious BTS that will make girls cry over them. When healthy good-looking new-born boys are born, neighbours will often say “he’ll grow up to have girls cry over him.” This phrase is also self-praising of BTS. J-Hope really sounds like an old farmer in this song in his tone - appropriately so, since he keeps talking about agriculture."

the way bts thinks of their lyrics is just WOW, so many references, just WOW.

I had no idea BTS had a satoori song. My mom’s hometown is Gwangju, she probably would like this lol. Sadly, she mostly speaks Konglish with the Seoul dialect because of my dad/dad’s family (we’re Korean American). I find this super informational. I wish my mom would speak her dialect more so I could learn some of it.

This video looks like it took a lot of hard work with the translation of every dialect and examples found in movies and dramas. Thank you for your efforts and for helping us understand!

Never seen or heard of a Rap with so much cultural reference, grammar, food, historical info and sentiment on unification rolled into one. Applause for BTS and DKDKTV!!!

Thank you, David! This has always been one of the most confusing BTS songs for me. I knew it was about accents from different parts of the country, but nothing else. And a history lesson, too! I'm amazed at the things I learn by way of BTS.

Those jealous artists and fandoms keep complaining BTS being too westernised But BTS is the best, if not only, successful KPOP artist who promote Korean culture in such a genius way While BTS rooting strongly with their home town and the culture Others are busy making full English tracks to please the western music industry Such an irony LOLLLLLLLL

Stanning BTS has taught me so much interesting info about Korea

How the hell did they transform a history text book to a/one song??? Only President Kim Namjoon can relate.

President king namjoon... this is gonna be my favourite line from now on

I've said it once and I will say it again. No one is doing it like BTS.

Can I just say one thing... Hoseok in that thumbnail is doing one hell of a job wrecking by bias list....

Stanning BTS is like learning history!

I love that President King Namjoon is a thing now it's just so appropriate. I loved this explanation so much, back when I was getting into BTS i found this song and realized it sounded slightly different than their other songs and to this day there were still things I didn't understand no matter how many translations I read. You guys are great and yes, David, you're super handsome.

"Now, it's time for President Kim Namjoo" ooooof. No explanation needed 😅 BUT SRSLY, PALDOGANGSAN IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANGTAN SONG. I LOVE HOW LIVELY IT IS AND I HEAR THEM SPEAK THEIR DIALECTS THAT WE OFTEN HEAR. AND YEAH, UP TIL NOW THEY REPRESENT THE WHOLE COUNTRY OF KOREA 💜

DAEBAAAAAKKK....... Thank's for sharing knowledge of korean dialect. BTS REALLY REALLY GENIUS. Please react to BTS's "MA CITY".

He says KING NAMJOON, right ? 😎

People who disliked are those who can't process this much knowledge.

I’m pretty sure that at 10:00 j-hope’s talking from his mother’s perspective, as she boasts towards the end that she has “a champion that weighs 20kg” and “he’s a Bangtan that will make girls cry"

You know David is an intellectual when he said President Kim Nam Joon🤣

Did he just said "president king namjoon"? Ok we acknowledge 😉👌

This must have taken a lot of time and effort to put together with all the different movie and news clips added. Thank you so much. It's so helpful and I am going to send it to my Korean teacher bc it's so interesting too. I love examining culture and learning about it from music so this is right up my alley. And this is one of my favorite songs from debut Bangtan. Thank you for all your hard work. I really appreciate it.

Thinking about how much they teach us about Korea's culture and language with their lyrics, it's mind blowing and admirable. This song particularly amazes me because i learned so much thanks to it. Great video as always. President Kim Namjoon, i approve.

This was so informative and interesting to understand this one song has much meaning to it than its simple lyrics and language. I believe that is one of the many reasons why international ARMYS have taken to BTS than other KPop artists. I have really enjoyed their songs since my daughter has introduced this group and other to me. Bravo. Thank you.

This is somehow related to the final part of the song ( Namjoon's part) He wrote this poem when he was 12 (5th grade) 'Korean Peninsula Tiger, and Unification' Not a small rabbit but a scary tiger. scratch is made on the tiger's waist. Hurt on the waist struggling one tiger continues to suffer. China, and Japan, and United States all looked down on us, and said we are not a tiger but only a small rabbit. But the day when the scratch on the tiger's waist washes away the world will not be able to look down on us. South will be like the north, North will be like the south, The day when the two colors on the Korean flag unite and become purple, 70 million citizens will become one and look up to the sky with hands together, That day will come one day. Marching one step by step to the place called unification, We are not a small rabbit but one brave tiger. To a place where we are under one sky even in different places. -Kim Namjoon

they taking it WAY way back

My mom tells me “watching a bunch of Chinese men will teach you nothing”. First of all sis, they’re not chinese😭 second, they legit gave everyone a whole song educating us about their country. And dkdk just made life 10,000,000x easier by explaining everything

Me, with my Daegu dialect: h Every Korean in us: Omg! You speak satoori! Are you from busan??

"President Kim Namjoon" it's a yes from me ✊

Gosh BTS song lyrics never stop surprising me.. gosh..

Damn I've been stanning an intelligent bop without knowing this whole time. I knew there was a reason it's one of my faves in the album

Ah this makes me homesick. Portugal is a small country with so many dialects and region bickeries. Funny how they turned their disparities into a song to allow all of us to get to know theirs better. So much appreciation. And thank you guys for making this translation possible for us internationally.

Gosh, I first heard this song years ago and I had no idea there was *this* much to unpack in just one song. AND you guys actually make learning about the social, cultural, historical and economic contexts enjoyable and easy to understand. Good job! 💜 My mind by the end of the 16 minutes: 🤯

This is so much fun. I can somewhat relate to the whole dialects and regional hostility. In my country we have several dialects too and some regions are looked down on due to decades old stereotype. It's so interesting to see how other country deals with lingual diversity. Kudos to BTS for making a song on this and kudos to dkdk tv for explaining it to us.

I remember getting so turnt to this song when they would perform it, and I kindaaa knew a little about the background, but this video REALLY helped me out ....its been so long (ive been following BTS since before their first stage), but I'm so happy this song is getting attention again, I've always loved it

I am an ELF. But this explanation of BTS and Arirang song, I have respect for BTS now. Go BTS!!!

Can't wait for the real meaning of satoori rap Edit: our geniuses BTS

All koreans speak differently but can understand each other that's so beautiful... im arabian we all(arab speaking countries) speak differently but can understand each other too i find that so beautiful 😊💜

In my country we have something similar with gagagaga... If I say "Bababa ba?" or "Going down?" the other person says "Bababa" or "Going down"... "Bababa" means to go down while "ba?" would be the question mark. I also think we have an equivalent word for 'geosigi'. In my country it will be the word "ano". We use "ano" to replace a word we forgot or if we find it difficult to describe something. It's useful though since even though we forget the right word, the other person will know what we mean by "ano".

More and more people *NEED* to see this . This channel is criminally underrated ! They put such efforts to explain these songs and fill the gap between the international fandom and the artists . I just know I can always count on them to explain BTS songs . The songs and lyrics are so complicated and deep ...while many other channels leave out many parts of it simply giving a summary , DKDKTV go line by line , explaining the whole . Mad respect for them .

*WOW...NEVER THOUGHT THIS SONG HAD THIS MUCH MEANING BEHIND IT....BTS WERE GENIUS SINCE THEIR DEBUT DAYS....THANKS GUYS....PROUD DUCK HERE💜💜💜💜*

Can you do Spine Breaker or Ma City too ?

As a new army here, I'm so thankful for DKDKTV. These videos are amazing and let us, foreigners, know a lot more about not only BTS, but korean culture as well in general. I'm gonna listen to this one in a different way from now on.

I already know this, but I always like watching you explain songs so I’m going to watch this anyway

In the ending part, you remind me of words that RM once said, I don't remember exactly but Rm said that his heart also and always heads towards the North, which made me so impressed and touched. Along with that, when Rm is in grade 5, he also wrote a poem about his country which goes along with the image of a lion(?) I may be wrong but I am really impressed by such a young man having those thoughts towards there country and it's the same to you, I was really captivated and impressed throughout the video and feeling touched even I am not Korean. again, have to say, great in quality and great in Visual >_< haha great as always

"Time for President Kim Namjoon" My favorite part. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

4:03 OH!! In tagalog we have a similar thing, we use "kwan"! Sometimes we also use "ano" which technically means "what", but we also use it like "thing". Ex: "Kunin mo nga yung ano... yung kwan." Direct translation: "Get the... what is it... the thing." So it's kinda like "Hey get the uh, what is it called.... the thing." Or "Hey get the uh thing... that thing." Kwan is used for stuff you really don't remember the name of lol

It makes me sad the fact that I've been in the fandom for nearly 3 years, and it took me one (1) to figure it out what the songs were about (by searching and seaching, and looking for translations AND explanations...) but now for new armys its so easy to get all this kind of information Wah~ so lucky Anyways, good video. 👍

so much history and culture in a 3 min song. Respecting BTS and the korean culture even more. Thank you DKDKTV really appreciate it 🙌🏼💗

I just discovered your channel. This is AMAZING! Thank you for breaking it down and explaining it line by line with English translations. I'm a Korean American who just discovered BTS, and your channel helps explain the language and cultural context in a way I could never hope to on my own. Thank you so much!

14:15 "now it's time for president kim namjoon to wrap up everything and end the fight" all hail president namjoon!!!!! (wait, did he say "president kim namjoon" or "president king namjoon"???)

i just hoping that the boys will be sing the paldogangsan again in the future. its a good song. that would be a a reminder how awesome BTS was, is and still will be in a long road.

I've been waiting for a long time for you guys to explain this song. Finally!

that "가가가가" legit has the same energy as "Bababa ba?" in my language (it's Filipino and it means "going down?")

Though I already knew most meanings in the song (except the eight provinces and the watermelon one 😉) the way you inserted new clips and information made it still very entertaining. The editing must have been immense however the fruits of your labour have really paid off, it was a wonderful video. Thank you David!

this is such a fun way to learn more about korea

David...it was really useful.thank you.i think this video will cross 1 or 2 million views for sure.ARMYS..WHERE YOU AT? I really want to learn satoori....but i don't have the time to learn even the seoul's one. As you asked..in my country..in India.. as you know..there are 29 states.i'm from tamil nadu.TAMIL language is one of the oldest languages in the world.i think it has about atleast 57 dialects which is practiced till now.

Finally finally omg I’ve been waiting for this

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I've been waiting for you guys to do this one!!!

President Kim Namjoon rapping it up

ouh i just notice you said President Kim Nam Joon.

Thank you! I was expecting this video for so long!!!

*PRESIDENT KING NAMJOON* I liked this video uptil now, but I like it more now. Thanks, David.

It's so pleasant to see how BTS showing their culture and traditions with a big proud. They don't create these typical K-pop songs, they literally telling about their identity I'm ARMY for almost 6 years and I never regretted stanning them Their musical journey is so interesting and educational

You got me missing this song! Thank you for this great video! I personally love how distinct the different dialects sounds.

This is so interesting and informative! Thank you for your hard work on this! 💜

Don't mind me I'm just looking for that people "why only explain BTS"

All I can say that this explanation is "LIT". I simply LOVE all of your explanation of BTS songs!!! The complexity of Korean Hip-Hop Is Off The Chain!!!! :) Just like your explanation of DDAENG!!!! :) Your explanations of the BTS songs are SO AWESOME!!!!! :) Thank you for all the hard work that you do your ARMIES everywhere!!!! :)

This was so helpful and interesting!! Thank you!

Omgggg ive been looking for thisssss
