I sometime feel like we "consume" BTS and its members - we eat them up and expect them to meet/serve our needs rather than their own. RM said that he started working on this song (I believe) in 2017/2018/2019, when they were having a very hard time with their increased fame and international recognition. The pressure to become who they had never been - the push to sing entirely in English for example - really changed who they felt they were. RM was particularly affected by this, I think. It was good to encourage people during the pandemic, but they got trapped - they were planning on taking a break and doing their military service starting in 2020, but the pandemic upended everything, and they worked hard to comfort ARMY and provide content/comfort. It took a toll on them, and although ARMY enjoyed the content, I wonder if we realize how greedy we are at their expense. They are real people, with real lives and things they want to do - I hope ARMY can be respectful about this rather than worrying about what BTS does for them.

NAMJOON DESERVES A GRAMMY FOR THIS MASTERPIECE!!!!!!! 💜

"When I was making Wildflower I immediately thought of Youjeen of Cherry Filter and her powerful rocking voice," RM says. "She is undeniably one of the top rock vocalist in Korea. She's number one to me. So I called her and told her it had to be her." (Vogue: written by Janelle Okwodu Dec. 2, 2022) *sidenote: Found out that this is Youjeen's 2nd collaboration with another artist.....which makes this truly incredible song such a gift to ARMY and her fans!

RM. I do so wish you a Lovely Night. The last shot of you laying in the purple and indigo flowers gently bloom-filled scented to calm your soul was the perfect ending to your MV. Because now you can rest and breathe and be one with nature. You survived your flames and fame and fireworks and excruciating gut-wrenching pain that you never asked for. You are at your grave, but not in it. The excessive explosion of the rise to the top almost took you out. But it didn't. You get to enjoy that Lovely night. You all wisely decided to pause. To be a human being instead of a human doing. Now with your stunningly exquisite view on your glorious mountaintop you can breathe in deeply until you recapture your tortured soul. Just so you know...we knew. And we still know you sacrificed your young prime- filled youthful days for us. You had to endure days and nights without friends and family and any potential close companionship of a true love. You gave us everything. Now it's your time to make it happen. Do capture and secure for yourself many Lovely nights. Not just one. I remember you saying on stage that you do pray. And you're not attached to any particular religion. But, that one God, that Higher Power answered your prayer. He is giving you time away from it all. Ironically, your time away from flames snd fame will be you serving your country. What a fascinating door you are entering! But do escape through that door. Take your mask off. Do You. Will you turn your poetic brain off? Probably not. But know this. You've down enough for us. You don't have to create a product or content out there for us to consume. Enough! Be Namjoon. Live every moment as just Namjoon. Not BTS. That's all you need to do. As you prepare to leave we have to prepare for what it's going to be like without you. You will be terribly missed. We will be here to receive you with open arms when you return. So. Please. We all want this for you. Do enjoy a Lovely Night with your Wild Flowers, Flowers, and Flowerworks. I

I don’t even really have words not like Namjoon does to explain how deeply I feel it. His rawness absolutely comes through. It’s so honest and I love that he had to convince her to be on it because she’s a rock/punk singer and was worried her voice would overwhelm the song but it pops like a firework, absolutely perfect. Also the fact our precious Docskim who had been with the guys in their traveling band and a sometimes producer (who wrote Lie with/for Jimin) was going to give up making music burned out and uninspired himself but making THIS song restarted him, lit his spark again. It’s that powerful a song.

NamJoon with the wind blowing through his hair====> Roscoe: 😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰

What I find amazing about BTS and especially RM's music is that it OFTEN elicits an emotional response before you even know what the words mean. I love it! It keeps me coming back for more! (inhale inhale exhale I WANT MORE J-Hope)

I had to sit with this song for a few days before I could stream it with ear buds in. It knocked the breath out of me ngl

My favorite thing about this song is that it convinced DOCSKIM not to retire from the music industry.

I hope you react to the making of the MV. i had never seen Korean traditional fireworks (Nakhwa-nori) before, they are so beautiful and tranquil. As an American I thank BTS for introducing be to the Korean culture. I'm so thankful I'm trying to learn Hangul 방탄소년단 감사합니다

This song floored me when I listened to it thru Jino’s youtube set and that was before I even knew the lyrics. To be honest I didn’t know the lyrics until Roscoe read them because I already knew they were gonna be raw. I cried, not for myself but for the pain Namjoon and the others have gone thru in order to make Army happy. I know that the majority now realise the importance of their need to take a break before they totally burn out. At some point in life you have to be selfish and do what’s best for you even though it may result in some walking away. It is always surprising who you think will be there and who is actually there on your darkest days. When you long for the dawn, like Namjoon says because you believe everything looks a little better in the daytime. I love this song. Youjeen’s voice is haunting and you can feel the pain. Namjoon knew what he was doing when he chose her for this song. I have to brace myself every time I hear it because the tears come by the time it gets to the end and I feel exhausted. I can’t begin to imagine how Namjoon and the rest of the guys feel. And as for Roscoe, I am watching this after the major changes to the comfy couch channel and discord where he went into more detail about why this song in particular hit him like it did. I am also glad that he is taking a break to look after himself and spend time with loved ones. I watched an interview with Jackson Wang earlier today where he talked about loneliness and depression he was going thru a year or so ago and he is still trying to cope with it. There is a lot of loneliness out there as the world becomes more unrecognizable day by day. People complain about a “woke” culture and in any situation things can always be taken too far. There is very rarely a happy medium with so many differing opinions, but you’ve got to take what helps you and run with it. Being able to articulate that “actually, no I’m not okay” whether through spoken word, song or acting, saves lives. Either for those doing it or for those watching/listening. Pain is pain but it also has an unusual kind of beauty that lets us know we are still alive.

I adore Youjeen's vocals in here so much. They are pure, powerful but with the hint of pain that elevates the song. I literally cried watching this the first time.

Joonie's lyricism hit hard in this track. His collaboration with Youjeen really brought feelings from deep within! ✨💜

The true peek into RM’s true heart is so full of emotion. Each song peels another layer. This collaboration with Yun is powerful and perfection.

The live version of this song and others from rolling hall in Seoul is so beautiful and emotional, a must watch!!

Hybe released 7 wolves to attack the Army. One by one, we feel emotional happy, sad n undecscrible lost for words. Hope Army able to survive for the release of other wolves which are not out yet🤣

Youjeen is the extra sauce on this well written, well produced, well executed masterpiece.,

Roscoe, there comes a time when you have to grab the memories and feelings that hurt our souls and crumple them up and throw them away. If BTS taught me anything, it was to go forward and keep looking ahead, otherwise we can't see what's in front of us. This song is sad,beautiful and I think a goodbye to just one part of Namjoon story. I'm happy for the guys to all experience something other than the grind and pressure of their lives. We will miss them but look how much they've given us, they gave me my life back💜💜💜💜💜🇦🇺💜💜💜💜💜 They will come back to us💜

And take care of yourself - we all need to prioritize that - you can't help anyone else if you're empty . . .

Namjoon said he has been working on this song, the thought of being a "flowerwork" instead of a firework since 2016, and he said in the mv behind the scenes that he was so happy that the visuals he had been imagining were coming to life in this music video. Such a deep, thoughtful, emotional song that literally comes from Namjoon's soul. It gave us a glimpse into how he has been feeling since the beginning of his career and the last festa finally making sense. What a gift.

Whenever I listen to this song or watch the video, I want to give forehead kisses to Namjoon. But he’s so tall 😑.

I love this song. I cried when I first heard it (immediately followed by a laughing 'what are these guys doing to me...?!' lol) As an artist myself, I can relate to this. tho on a MUCH smaller scale. 💜💜💜💜💜

Visuals, Vocals - so powerfulAnother 💣🤯🤞

Wait til you react to the performance he did in seoul. Killed it

Namjoon is first and last a poet.

I am so touch with Joon’s Indigo album especially Wild Flower, he is so transparent and raw with us - brought us along his roller coaster ride of emotion struggles and crisis - the storm, fireworks, barren land, calm flower field. Very deep and personal song, I can see why he said that this song is so precious to him. I just wish them to be happy. Find that individual flair, take a break, go explore/experimenting stuff that you want. Take your time, it’s okay we can wait. I highly recommend to also watch the breakdown of Wildflower at itsANDYandJAS channel if you like to understand more of each message. It is very insightful.

Hi comfy Crew💗 Roscoe I had the same reaction when I saw RM Wild Flower song video I'm in Love with this song Namjoon voice! but the singer Youjeen voice is beautifully stunning. Namjoon is a Poetic Professor his lyrics are deep for his Beautiful Soul♥

Yes beautiful and painful.

A genius poet that’s Namjoon!💜🔥

Your reaction was so heartfelt and honest, I really appreciate you reacting to this. 💜

First time watching this video my pores raised and then hearing female vocalist wow what an incredible song

Hi! I'm ji. You are the real one that make me so happy and emotional. Thanks for your impressive reaction!!

Dear Roscoe, Thank you for sharing your love throughout the year. It has been a blessing I never expected. It has been my experience that this is truly a healing song (in the deepest sense possible) if you listen to it again and again (over 2,000 times for me). I hope you are having a peaceful and joyful time with your family and friends. Peace and love, A friend without name

Roscoe, you didn't have to say anything...your silence, expression, and demeanor spoke volumes...as did RM and this song. And Youjeen, she brought this song home. 💜💫🍃🌼🍃💫💜

this make me cry every time... Thats why im never leaving Bangtang, they make me feel human in a diferent level

Hermosa canción , me gustaría ver otra versión con la voz de Jimin en el coro...la voz de RM y JIMIN me volaría la cabeza.

She performed it live with him at Rolling Hall concert....no one holding phones or fan lights

I watched and enjoyed some of your previous video reactions this weekend. And I especially loved this one. It hit me in the heart too. But I didn't hold back. I boohooed. I was wondering why this MV was not nominated for a Billboard award. It's cinematography is stunningly exquisite. The fireworks were real because RM requested it live. The song is hauntingly beautiful. I remember writing in response to.."I do wish me a Lovely Night." I did so wish him a Lovely Night. Of all people he deserved it. He was so burned out. Lost. Exhausted from all the busy ness and fame. Never ending schedule. The final shot of him lying in the field of flowers calmed my aching spirit. He was finally getting his wish of a Lovely Night! And you finally were able to experience a Lovely Night...after sorting everything out. I hope you wrote RM and told him. He would Love to hear from you and your personal BTS journey. Starting with you noticing RM's swagger. "I want to be him when I grow up." Now. You CAN be. Bravo for you Roscoe!
