The song that got me into the rabbit hole. Tae brought me to the garden and the rest pulled me in

1:05:55 There was a butterfly though. 😉 (Btw, I didn't know watching a grown man freak out over seing a lollipop could be this much fun. 😂)

Here in 2024, this is still my favorite BTS song. I am so glad you finally got to it. ❤

Love your deep dives! It’s so nice watching all this content again with fresh eyes and new perspectives. And with your directing background it’s really cool how you break it down, thanks!!

In my opinion, Blood Sweat and Tears is the most important mv in the past 20 years - it really expanded what an MV can be - the level of storytelling is unparalleled. The Japanese mv does a great job of connecting the themes from BS&T to the BTS storyline. As for the butterfly - think about the Butterfly effect. It is another piece of the storyline - that Jin is a time traveler (or travels between different realities). Omelas (a story where a small girl suffers so that a society can thrive) is another influence. In this case, in order for the others to be happy, Jin has to suffer. You see that theme pushed in other mvs (such as Euphoria, which would come later - which is a continuation of the song Butterfly (prologue). Thanks for tackling these sets of videos - in a way it's like approaching mvs for a master's thesis.

The person hanging in mid air is jungkook

This is about temptation. All sorts of temptation. The allure of temptation as a poison and an intoxicant. The juxtaposition of black and white. So we have combinations of religious Greek and Jungian ideas and iconography. We have the quote from Damien. It srarts with the war in heaven and the fall of the rebel Angels. Jungkook suspended mid fall in front of icarus.

Fun fact ...was supposed to be Suga and Jin...but Suga wouldn't settle down lol...they got V to do it

Read the book, Demian, by Hermann Hesse, 1919. It is the foundation of this video and much of BU. It has a lot of Jungian psychology in it. The video is loaded with great art and all kinds of physical symbolism, mythology, characters (based on the book), and activity. But my belief is if you are going to study something thoroughly, you start at the seed and roots -- the book.

Bacchus (in Roman) is also called Dionysus (in greek).

Thr bright colors are Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black - Printing color setting which is different than RGB for the web. It's more 'permanent'.

this video was sofun on two levels, one is watching roscoe descend into madness while being surprisingly accurate, two is reading the unbothered chat talking about random topics while roscoe lost his mind, so entertaining, also i jumped in a couple of times during the live and it is funny having a thought and then seeing my comment expressing that same thought haha

Can't wait for the Save Me webtoon

Love watching Roscoe pulling his own teeth. Valiant effort, sir :)

Thank you for this reaction, Roscoe! Love your deep dives, so much into the detail. HOWEVER, sorry, you're off base tying in the Martha Graham quote that inspired Black Swan. BTS did not release Black Swan until 2020 in Map of the Soul. BST is a 2016 song. At the end of the Japanese version, Namjoon is not saying "Jino", he's saying "Jin Hyung". I think Namjoon is seeing Jin after a long absence, hence the surprise. I'm not spoilering, just sticking my nose in if there is an error and a correction is justified. Otherwise I'm just enjoying watching you put the pieces together. I may be wrong, but the bird seems to me like a phoenix-like image? Butterfly's wings quote - that's chaos theory. I'm rambling as well. You're reading the book? You should also look more into Herman Hesse and the themes of his writing. How the hell did they put this together? Well, a badass creative team, a couple of musical geniuses, one of them Mr. 148 IQ and a group dynamic that means members feed off each other's ideas (seen many times in their Run BTS and Gayo missions). That's why there will never be another BTS.

Finally I was waiting for this reaction💜💜

The painting is by Bruegel. I believe it's called "Fall of the Angels" or similar. Typical Renaissance depictions of hell 😊

Been waiting for this since i discovered your channel Captain 😂 i was like FINAAALLLLYYY🤣💜

Blood sweat and tears explained by a Korean" DKDKTV

Welcome back, I'm so excited to see your reactions!!!

Thank you for not changing these past years. Sending love .💜💜

I have seen this video a thousand times but after the BU it is like seeing it from scratch, there are so many things that I could not have seen without the entire tour... wow

How deep are you trying to fall in to the BU? Seriously, where BTS is a rabbit hole, we've found that the BU is really like a wormhole. Once you get into the Notes 1 and Notes 2 and want to sort out all the tangled webs they weave, let us know. It's been our favorite past time for the last couple of years.

Butterfly is in Japanese version with V

😂😂 This is fun Cap'n- such drama ... and I'm not actually talking about the series although there is plenty of that in the BU!! 😊 💜

Will Roscoe read the Save Me webtoon now that he finished the Wings era? I'm so excited for him to get some of the answers

I remember the day I recognized the corridor Jimin was walking through in the Japanese version, that it's the same corridor Jin was walking through in Awake, just changed a bit... and I remember I was so hyped about it, until I realized I was as confused as always 😅

Roscoe…I loved this deep dive ❤

This is such a great reaction. Thank you!

This is just the best! I laughed a lot! 😁 Love you, Roscoe! You're so smart! 🥰💜

I love your reactions the most. Very smart and thorough

Thank you. i enjoy .😊

That’s some spicy Cheeto theory 😂

Its about an acid trip. The Japanese version says it all

Felicitări BTS cei mai talentați frumoși perfecți tare dor de ei ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I keep thinking of JK's drunk live when he said Night apple is poison apple

lol, I always thought that lolipop/cig story was a bunch of balogne as well. There is no info to say that is why they do that. Always sounded dumb. Sweet temptations, the taste of something tempting maybe.

I interpret this MV as One can never dodge the consequences of their actions or hide the evidence of their immorality from others

Hi, Roscoe. Omg - i wrote a really long-ish note to you here...but must have clicked something accidentally and it just disappeared. I am so sad now. It was a note to you. I shall try next time to just type and send as soon as i finish. I truly enjoyed this, though. Thank you much. I am sorry i couldn't send my note to you. My bad. Take care till the next one. If you could send a notification thingy, that would help me remember to watch it. Cheers.

PewDiePie: "I'm gay now". One of the best reviews of BTS. He went from, wteverlivingf is this crap to being thoroughly seduced and this video was a bit of that seduction. hahahahahaaaaaaa The repeat of JK in the 'falling' pose, sometimes on a swing, caught between life and death - throughout the BU, it's his story of dying, being injured, feeling betrayed, caught between truth and lies and life and death.

This is my Alice moment!

Back in the days, there was a fight between Jin and V, thay discussed like 10 min before going on the stage to perform. The japanese version reminded me this. I don´t know if the timing in right.... In the end, Jin apologized to V (like in the mv).

😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁 ROSCOE! I so enjoy watching your mind work. Journey on Cap'n ... 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

There was a butterfly in the sky above j Hope in the Japanese video.

So difficult to figure out unless you read the notes and the webtoon because it’s so convoluted! Also need to watch the Japanese MV versions - they go more in depth with explaining , especially Jimin and Suga.

Hola💜

Interesting - watching a verbal game of hot, hot, cold! Or maybe pin the tail! 🤣💜💜💜

💜💜💜💜

at the end RM did the wrong move and moved his head to the opposite side that the other guys did. was that on purpose, or was that another Bid RM clumsy dance mistake? Bless him. I've never caught that before. 😲

Can someone please explain to me the meaning of "chocolate cheeks and chocolate wings" because English is not my mother tongue. Oh yes and "peaches and cream"

This song isn't part of the storyline......based on the book Demian

You said you turn off comments just letting you know I am new good luck 👍

I liked but I won’t watch this one as I have to catch up on your bu episodes

Please, react to Zayn Malik -What i m

Can you please reaction to < JOJI > songs 💜💜💜

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
