Lee Hyun is their senior and they all know him pretty well. Especially Jimin and Jin are very good friends with him. This was like a collab video as he does many vlogs, reactions, and covers on his YT channel- 'Hyunni Combo TV.' Edit: this is from one of the shows/interviews he did and I always found it hilarious. The host asked abt BTS and his relationship with them and this is what he had to say; Lee Hyun: I get along with them just as friends would do. Jin, when he comes to me, takes away my phone, takes a selfie, and says, "Look at my face when you need to cheer up~"

wow definitely did not expect you to watch this haha !! Leehyun is very close to them especially Jin and Jimin 🥰

When you add -shi after a name. It's basically calling someone MR. / addressing them with respect. So he's calling them Mr. Seokjin instead of just Seokjin casually. (Since he is a manager & has to address them formally) In real life where he isn't the manager but actually their senior. He addresses them casually without adding -shi. Since he is older by age as well as by career

33:22 he is older than them, he is 40 years old right now, 9 years older than jin, they called him hyungnim often in this video, -nim is another ending that ads politeness

Lee Hyun is one of the three artists under BigHit (along with BTS and TXT). And he's been with bts for a LONG time so their bond is so amazing and beautiful he's a very funny man with a beautiful voice. I love seeing him and BTS interact a lot. And he's older than all the members, so he's their very close hyung.

you need to watch the Bighit photoshoot of Bts, Txt, Lee hyun together.

lee hyun is very close with the boys, because for years they’ve been the only artists in bighit! seokjin and jimin are the closest with them, but they are all familiar with him cause he’s been there for them for more than ten years by now. he literally watch them grow, seeing how he was shocked by how mature they got. 😂❤

oh jk definitely knew he's lee hyun, it's just that he always had that bewildered look on his face. lol such a cutie

Agreed Abby Jin looks absolutely dreamy with those golden highlights, like a prince❤❤❤

here’s a rundown of some honorifics you might hear. hyung - younger male to older male oppa - younger female to older male noona - younger male to older female unni - younger female to older female CORRECTION (thank you!!): if you see or hear the suffix “-nim,” it’s like addressing someone superior to you, with their title or name. so like, PD-nim or CEO-nim. if you hear/see “-ssi,” it’s a polite way of calling someone by their name, as if adding mr./mrs./ms. to it. so if a receptionist were to call you at the doctor’s office, they’d say jungkook-ssi, for example. there’s honestly a lot more, and they can even be combined, like “hyung-nim,” but those are some of the basics that i know. if anyone would like to add on or correct, please do!!

lee hyun has been at bighit for even longer than bts, since 2005, he used to be a part of a group called 8eight (not a k-pop group, more like ballads etc), then he was a part of a duo called homme and after that fully became a soloist, his youtube video era was very fun, he even reacted to bts music videos with producers and choreographers of bts, that could also be fun for you to watch

Jimin and Seokjin are both very close to Lee Hyun. Seokjin especially, they go fishing together (or at least have in the past) and have worked together on Lee Hyun's channel. He also performed at Seokjin's older brother's wedding.

You should watch the Bighit Family Photoshoot Sketch someday!! It's with BTS, TXT and Lee Hyun, the behind the scenes of the pictures you probably have seen before that you mentioned in the beginning!! It's very fun, and TXT was fairly new so they were still awkward and nervous with BTS and it's adorable!!!

Daniel, the word you were looking for is: honorifics

All Bighit artists at the time ( TXT, BTS and Hyun) did a photoshoot together once. The behind the scenes of that is on BangtanTv too.

OHMYGOSH I clicked so fast. I think I told you about these guys a long time ago. Yehey you're finally watching it! Even if it's not because of me, kudos to my fellow ARMYs for pushing the videos to them! And the ones who voted!! 21:17 this is actually one of my jobs 😅 but for my mentor and sometimes actors. I have to get my cardio in to do my job LOL 26:40 They add "-ssi" at the end of their names to address them politely/respectfully. It''s basically saying "Mr./Ms." Since Lee Hyun was one of the first artists of Big Hit, of course, he saw BTS being formed and became their ever-supporting sunbae (senior) 🥰 Like he's been part of Big Hit since 2005 👀👀

Lee Hyun and BTS are very close. It's so cool to see them have fun together. I've watched this a few times and it still brings a smile to my face. ☺️💜

Lee Hyun a solo artist under BigHit. The boys and him are best friends and are close, which is a reason why Jhope asked if they were speaking formally or not. I'm assuming that they don't use honorifics when they see each other, despite Hyun being older. He put up the second part to the video with the actual shooting and them talking.

I hope next show they watch is Jinnys kitchen. Especially since they speak Spanish

shi like Jimin-shi is like mister Jimin/ sir Jimin its formal, from what i know its used in professional settings to show respect and to people you dont know well so here they use it because they are at ''work'' and they pretend they just met.

The “do we have subtitles” part made my dayy😂

If you watch a lot of BTS videos, you will know that Jungkook says it to all the members and more to Taehyung since 2015 and he has been calling him Vssi 🤣 It's cute😊❤❤

LMAO this is so much better I heard back in the day staff used to run after bts and find them they are very energetic now but back then they were wild

So this was part of a series on Lee Hyun's channel. He was basically the only solo, non-kpop artist, in Hybe at the time. Plus he's so much older than other artists. I think he's roughly 8 years older than Jin. All the other idols are younger than BTS. So this series was a good way to get him and the other artists closer to each other, and introduce him to younger fandoms. His own team came up with the idea that he should work for each group for a day or so. For one group he was on the content team (photos for and captions for their blog) as an example. BTS was basically the culmination because they already know each other well and they are busier. It was also cool to get a glimpse behind the scenes to see how the staff work for each group. Also, FYI, Lee Hyun is a ballad singer known for his great vocals. That's why they kept jokingly asking for singing tips or trying to trick him into singing. Also, if you guys are interested, the interviews and live performances shown here are up in full on youtube as well.

-sshi in the end basically means mr., it is used for women too, anyone, expresses politeness but can be often used, like we use it for students in my korean class, also can be used for teasing between close friends, like jungkook calls jimin jiminshi sometimes although he should be saying jimin hyung

Abby’s “Lachimolala” shirt 🥹😃

Jimin is very close to Lee Hyun. He's definitely Lee Hyun's #1 fan. 😂

33:44 *Honorifics?* P.S. Fun fact: Hyun once said whenever he sees Jin, Jin takes a selfie of himself with Hyun's cellphone, so he could "cheer up seeing Jin's handsome face" whenever he feels down, lol. ❤

They were not calling him hyung but were calling him hyun-nim, nim at the end is a polite/formal way of adressing someone same as Shi at the end of a name meaning sir/ma'am they were using these titles because it's suppose to a professional relationship between manager and artist. Also you must have not picked it up but BTS members for fun address each other with shi

Lee Hyun is a hilarious man with an amazing voice and he has a close relationship with BTS as well as he is their senior.

Lee hyun is a senior artist that is part of Bighit for a long time. He was in a duo and only became solo recently. So yeah they have known each other for a long time as colleagues and friends eventually. And they did call him 'hyung'..hyunie hyung. He is very close to jin, jimin. Others too but those two especially.

Taehyung is actually a good driver. I remember hearing somewhere that the members feel at ease when Tae's behind the wheel.

thank you to the person who made this banner and chose this video :)

Of course Jung Kook knows. He was just playing along. If you watched when Jung Kook first ran into Lee Hyun, as he left he said “hyunie combo”.

15:48 this was like that JK and Namjoom moment 😂

as some armys tilling you guys "SSHI" in the end basically means mr. Jungkook always jokes with the members and calls thim like this LOL also can be used for teasing between close friends like Vsshi or jiminsshi or taehyungsshi or sugasshi 😂 so cute and the members call him Jungkooksshi 😂💜

I've seen this a few times and it never gets old! Not only do we get a look into the behind the scenes of what BTS' schedule looks like, but it was so funny and I loved seeing them joke and have fun with their friend. XD

BTS members give off such Golden Retriever energy 🥺💜💜 Such a fun pick CCW logo maker hehe I was shocked to see CCW reacting to this and was wondering how they stumbled upon this video!! More content like this please... it is light-hearted and not super edited💜 and I can tell you all genuinely enjoyed it too!!

Yes, Lee Hyun is a sunbae to all the artists at Big Hit. He debuted before BTS and TXT so he’s an older artist and that’s what a younger artist calls an artist that debuted before them or a more experience artist that debuted before them. That’s true in the all lines of work not just idols. There are K-pop groups that debuted after BTS that call the BTS members sunbae it’s a term of respect if you break down what t means or read the K-pop dictionary as an example in other fields. A teacher that has more experience than a new teacher is also usually called a sunbae.

Lee Hyun is 40... but looks way younger... just as they all do ! He must have known them since JK was like 13... so for him to hear them speaking as adults instead of hooning around the BH building chasing each other must have been an eye opener for him hahaha....

Sshi at the end of the name means Mr., it can also used for female. Hyung- used to call by a younger (male/brother) to an older (male/brother) Oppa - used to call by a younger (female/sister) to older (male/brother) Unnie - used to call by younger (female/sister) to older female/sister Noona - used to call by a younger male/brother to older female/sister Dongsaeng - call to a younger brother/sister Maknae- youngest brother/sister

♪ "If it's not you it's not anyoneee" ♪

Lee Hyun is an amazing vocalist. You should listen to his Room Live video on the Hyunie Combo YT channel if you have few minutes. His voice is so beautiful. He was enlisted when BTS were going through their some of really hard times and he has said he was sorry he wasn't there to protect them. The friendship between BTS and Lee Hyun has really grown through the years,, and and it's so fun to see them together. Jin and Jimin are particularly close to him, but all the BTS members have a very close bond with him.

I didn’t know much about Lee Hyun at first. I knew he was a solo artist under Big Hit. Then I watched the Big Hit family photo video and Hybe x Game Caterers and he’s really nice and funny. Also last year he introduced his alto ego Midnatt and he and Jimin danced to his song Masquerade

This was so fun to re-watch with you all. I saw this video early on when I first found BTS. I remember being so confused as to what was going on because I didn’t know who Lee Hyun was and that he was also with Big Hit. 😊

I LOVE THIS!! Lee Hyun is hilarious and such an amazing singer. Totally underrated and I'm thrilled this video got picked!

I love personality videos like this. Their bangtan bombs are also very fun and enjoyable to watch, and I know you'll love them a lot, so I hope we'll get to see you react more to them in the future 😊

ok since you guys know abt lee hyun, i want you guys watch bts and txt interaction, txt is their only one hoobae (junior) in bighit. its bts first time for having “lil brother” so their interaction are adorable

15:50 Dang Abby and Summer 😂😂😂

I love the Lachimolala t shirt Abby!!

Adding ssi at the end of their names, is honorific, polite, respectively way when you call a person by their name. It's Korean honorifics formal way of talking.

-ssi at the end of the name is like "Mister" or "Miss." When I first started following BTS, I thought it was like an endearment. Something close to like Seokjin-dear, or Jimin-darling. I misunderstood a comment about it. So for several months, I thought the boys were calling each other sweet nicknames like that. Then I took a semester of Korean and was really taken aback when my professor used -ssi on my name until he explained what it actually was. haha

Summer and Abby synchronization 😂❤

because bighit has a very few artists, the artists under this company are very close and used to each other. Just like many comments have mentioned, a few members are very close to Lee Hyun... you can tell by this video alone. They are very carefree and comfortable around him and their staff. Theyve all been together since the beginning and have their own stories and memories. TXT came alot later, 2019... but even then, they fit right in. I love all their bond.

Lee hyun is their seinor ang when BTS got debuted on 2013 he was in the service military and he said he was sad coz he cant support his juniors.so while in military he keep watching their VIdeos as support for them.💜💜

you all need to watch their bighit familly photoshoot with bts lee hyun and txt! it was epic

OMG! I didn't knew this video existed. Thank you CCW for letting me know about this video. It was so fun to watch 😊

WE NEED MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS 😍😍PLZ

He is the senior most in Hybe..a great ballad singer.He was in the same basketball team as Yoongi in the Idol tournament

They know each other for long time it was fun to see them together 🥰🥰🥰

So glad this was a pick to react to. Great to see these types of different videos.

Abby's 'LACIMOLALLA' shirt so cute 🥰😊❤

shii or sii means Mr. And the members say it to each other like Jungkook calls V and says Vssi or Taehyungsshi instead of Vhyung ❣️🫰🏼

All 7 are great. All 7 is capable of doing everything. Not just one or 2. ALL. 💜💜love BTS

Now i need more TXT and BTS reactions😊

I love that yall watched this. To answer some of your questions, Lee hyun himself said he wanted to know how managing BTS would feel like. The guys themselves didn't know until they were told what he would be doing. He has to record them behind the camera to send the pics and videos for feedback on the performance/outfits if I remember correctly lol. The bottles have to be in order of their age (ofc you have seen lol), so he knows which one to give to them. The script is really the guys schedule for the day. Jimin is like that with people he knows so he's looking at Lee hyun as big brother even tho bts in general are close friends with their staff. V can't spill water on himself yall 😂. FYI, that's the hybe building and the dance studio you guys saw is one of bts', but other hybe groups now use it even tho they use other ones.

Hi im new army i love Bts so much ❤ thank you for reaction

laughed the entire time with u, sm fun watching this again thank u ccw 😄

LOOOOOOVED THIS !! Its always so nice seeing the boys from a different perspective and getting to see behind the scenes content, its so authentic 💜 also the -ssi at the end basically is like saying Mr. Its basically just a formal way of addressing their name especially since he's acting like he doesn't know them beforehand lmaoooo Oh also Lee Hyun is older than all of them!

So excited for this!💜

lol managing bts is mainly keeping them hydrated

This is a good intro to other idols. Would love for you all the watch the BigHit photoshoot with Lee Hyun BTS and TXT

Something unique and special about Lee Hyun: in 2023, he released a song under the artist name Midnatt in six languages: Korean, English, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, and Vietnamese. It's called "Masquerade," and you can find it on KZfaq and listen to it in all six languages by setting the audio language. HYBE pulled this off by using technology developed by a company called Supertone, which they acquired in 2022. Lee Hyun recorded "Masquerade" in all six languages, and Supertone's AI was used to adjust his pronunciation so that Midnatt sounds like a native speaker in every language. Thus the song is more accessible to speakers of all six of those languages - which is billions of people - but still incorporates Lee Hyun's artistic choices as a singer, because it was translated and produced with his participation and approval. This is a unique and different use of AI: rather than AI replacing the artist, it's used to expand an artist's reach while preserving their identity. The technology is very new and not yet widely accepted in the industry, but it's possible that someday BTS will release songs in a dozen different languages and sound flawlessly native, but still feel and sound like BTS. It's investment and exploration like this for which Bang Si Hyuk has earned a reputation for visionary and forward thinking.

What a fun surprise that you watched this!! I also love behind the scenes stuff and seeing their interactions. Noticed they have to do a lottt of waiting around to start stuff 😂

I believe Lee Hyun was performing his military service when BTS debuted so he couldn’t act as a senior and help them out during that time. Also there’s a video of him , Son Deuk and PDogg reacting to Butter video on his KZfaq channel as well.

I have seen bits and pieces of that but not the whole thing. Thank you for reacting.

I can read korean and Bangtan Sonyeondan is definitely written in the title 😂💜

Ssi is Mr. And they say hyunie hyungie lol in a cutesy way. And the members always calls jungkook “jungkook-ssi”

What a cool video, very comforting 💜☺️

Wasn't expecting this, I had forgotten about it but I really enjoyed it! You guys should check out Hyun's Spring Day cover, it's so good.

I think you guys would enjoy watching all the bangtan bombs they have been making them since 2013. There really funny

I like that you have a mix of both music videos and "personality" and fun stuff. 💜👍😄

I really liked this! You guys should react to more of BTS with other idols!!!

i think the word daniel was looking for was honorifics? here are brief explanations of what they mean: 1) hyung (형, pronounced hyeong) = used by a male referring to another male older than him 2) oppa (오빠, pronounced op-pa) = used by a female referring to a male older than her 3) noona (누나, pronounced noo-na) = used by a male referring to a female older than him 4) eonni/unnie (언니, pronounced on-nee) = used by a female referring to another female older than her 5) -ssi (씨) = usually translated as Mr./Ms. and as far as i know has more to do with respect and less with age (we can hear lee hyun call the members "first name"-ssi, even jungkook) side note: "eo" in korean is 1 syllable and is pronounced close to "aw". so eonni would be on-nee, seokjin would be sawk-jin not see-ok-jin, hoseok would be ho-sawk not ho-see-ok, etc :) also, i don't have an exact timestamp but we do actually hear some members call him hyung (they say hyunie hyung, just adding -ie similar to when they'd say jungkookie or jiminie) every time i watch these videos my cheeks hurt from smiling so bad like obviously i KNOW bts are real people but seeing them not in a performance setting makes me lightheaded like omg they're real people 😭

this was really funny and refreshing

I love this video! hope you get more chances to watch personality vids soon, thanks to the Army that requested it 💜💜💜

OMGG then y'all have to watch Behind the scene of Bighit's group photo‼

This was a fun reaction, missed this kind of content!

For your question about the “shii & ah” terms i saw an army explain it in the comments but when it comes to referring to someone… Hyung = an younger male saying it to an older male Unnie = an younger female saying it to an older female Oppa = a female saying it to a male (a bf or big brother) Noona = a male saying it to an older female (big sister mostly)

Jimin just likes hugs and vibes😂😂

I hadn't seen that before, wow, that was so much fun. They did not let the opportunity to be brats go to waste 🤣

i really i like it when you watch this kind of content of bts 🥰

35:11 lol "Like the butt -" 😂 I will like the butt ~! 🤣🤣

lee hyun is their senior he 40 this year and debut 2007 before bts debut

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS, totalmente inesperados , mas eu estava esperano TANTO pra voces verem a relaçao dos meninos com o hyun . COMO EU AMO ESSE CANALLL

I love these videos 💜

More videos like this please ❤❤❤

hyung for older brother. noona for older sister.

Please please try their hybe family photoshoot with lee hyun and txt
