The light sticks are ARMY bombs and at shows they can sync up to whatever is planned for the show. It is amazing. The fans also were doing fan chants. There are certain chants for certain songs. The main chant is the guys names.

This was a Free concert that had 50,000 people attending about 100,000 watching a liveplay from a nearby park and had approx. 50 mil online real time viewers. They did this for The World Expo 2030 and this was their last concerts as a group before they go to the military 💜

They are chanting the names of the members! Kim Namjoon Kim Seokjin Min Yoongi Jung Hoseok Park Jimin Kim Taehyung Jeon Jungkook BTS!!! BTS often leaves space in the song intros for ARMY to chant

It is so freaking cute that you had no idea about the fan chant and the Army bombs !!! When you watch official videos from their concerts you can see the whole stadium with the Army bombs synchronized to the songs. It is beautiful.

I was there at this concert, it was the best experience of my life ❤

10:55 Jin hitting Bb4 and Eb5 is impressive, later he told us that he was sick and even couldn’t speak properly right before the concert! He really gave his all before his enlistment! 💜

When they perform the songs live, I feel like the songs come alive. They are really different and very beautiful They work hard for ARMY, never take their love for granted and make every performance unforgettable

The energy really perspires through the screen ! Important to know : "Run BTS" was a new song and it was the first time they were performing it, so we were all expectant and man did they deliver

The song is "Run BTS" they had other song called "Run"

They're like Olympic Athletes of musicians!!! I can't get over their talent, cardio strength, their endurance, their vocal control.... all in leather suits! WTF?? How?? They earn all the praise they get and more.

You literally are smiling from ear to ear in first five seconds. Lol

Kpop artists work so incredibly hard. Their live singing while dancing is insane. Most American artists will go on stage for an hour or hour and half set with opening artists. Kpop artist go on stage and perform for 3 hours! With minimal breaks. Also the light sticks seen in the audience are called army bombs. You can sync them up to your seat at the stadium and it creates a light show during the performance.

Once they come back four tour, you have to try and see them in person. It's a whole different experience. I've had seats all over the stadium, from front row to nearly back row, and they are all great seats.

That first time we saw them perform RUN BTS for the first time live, man...that feeling.

This was actually a one-off concert- their last together before their army service. it was also free and streamed live to millions.

This was their first time performing RUN BTS live AND the debut of the choreography so the crowd is going absolutely bananas 🍌!

The audience is holding army bombs. It's BTS' fandom official light stick

The lights are called army bombs and they are linked to the concert so they colors and patterns change throughout the concert!

This was a free concert in Busan for world expo. Unbeknownst to all of us this was their last concert together until they completed military service. How hard for them knowing this and performing their hearts out. Try watching the live concert of Jin and Coldplay. They wrote his going away song before military. The friendship is heartwarming.

This was the first time they sang RUN BTS with choreo, so the crowd was PUMPED for this and they delivered! This whole Busan concert is worth watching-these were the first two songs and they brought the energy for sure!!!

They had the Busan concert in theaters earlier this year. People brought their light bombs and sang to all the songs, it was so much fun and felt like being at a live performance.

We all love BTS because everyone can see how hard they work. That is one of the reasons they dominate the music scene. Their performances are on another level.

This concert where they are performing was for free of cost. It was for a EXPO called BUSAN WORLD EXPO 2030. And BTS were the ambassadors of that. It was a concert with 50k approx crowd and was truly free.

Your “producer’s ear” is impressive. I think their live performances show how consistent they really are most of the time. 10 years of practicing.

"Run BTS: sums up the 10 years that lead up to this. Constant rehearsal, training, and promotion. As a fan, I appreciate all the videos that expose what they went through to be successful. It's something only the enthusiasm and trust that the young have. Like most fans of BTS, I am grateful they have each spread their wings and explored what makes them happy during their "hiatus".

"Run BTS", not "Run - that's a whole other song," is a very special song. This concert was the first and last time they performed and did choreo of this live for us. They released, Run BTS, on their Proof album about 5-6 months before performing it live. This was their last concert as they were starting their sojourn rotation to their mandatory military service. It was very emotional for everyone and I would say bittersweet for them as well as ARMY. Glad you enjoyed it. They do slow down and perform some slower songs like Butterfly and Zero O'Clock at one point = tears. Worth watching every second if you can.

I just barely finished binging all your other BTS reactions! Great timing 😎💜

The constant smile on your face is exactly why we all love BTS, especially the live performances. I hope you check out the more vocal line driven performances. The thing with BTS is you just can pick a genre and they’ve done it. EDM, ballads, rap, rock, punk, metal…yeah. I can’t wait for you to go deeper!

Thanks for reaction to this. This was the first 2 songs of 19 that they performed that night. I can't imagine learning and remembering the choreography and moves. It was a great concert. I saw it in the theater. 💜💜

The light stick that we call an Army Bomb sinks up based on your concert ticket seat. The whole concert is lit up with beautiful colors and changes in our light sticks. It’s honestly so beautiful to see in person. The energy is so palpable and the mutual love for each other is so present in whatever arena we are in. I have had seats back on level 2 and have been front row for their Permission to Dance concerts in LA and Vegas. There is no bad seat in a BTS concert. They do give 120%+ all the time. They will tell us they are going on a hiatus or mini vacay break and we get bombarded with so much surprise content as if they aren’t on a hiatus at all. Their live band is amazing and really gives a different feel to the songs. One of my all time favorite segments of their shows is when they do a medley of several songs in their show. The energy is fire! You have the Army Bombs shinning and fireworks, confetti flying everywhere and the guys going hard for what feels like a good 30 minutes straight! It’s impressive for sure. I think you would enjoy watching one of these. Also, I would recommend listening to Life Goes On live. A song they wrote during the pandemic when all we could do was miss each other and long for the moment we could reunite together.

TY for sharing this. This was the only time BTS performed "Run' BTS" live. It's their last full concert. "Run BTS" was a fan favorite as soon as "Proof' was released and enthusiasm for the choreo was high. Mic Drop is a concert favorite from 2017. It's a great concert but for me (with vision problems) it's too dark. Most people who go to their concerts are actual dues paying ARMY members... (There's a drawing so the GP hardly ever gets a chance at tickets.) So they know all the lyrics months before they ever get to the venue. This was a huge event in Busan, the beginning of a push to get an international festival (2030 World Expo) to choose Busan for it's main location. The stadium sold out and they set up a venue with a big screen at the beach a mile away. It was also live streamed. This one had 'technical problems' at Weverse on the live stream so a lot of people were disappointed and the concert had to be re-streamed (?) the next week. Thanks for watching it though... I hope you can watch the whole thing without interruptions sometime.

I was only a casual BTS fan but I happened to wake up in thr middle of thr night and was scrolling the net and I caught this concert live from a stream when it was happening and after that...I became totally obsessed. Seeing their live performances, even videos or streams of them, just gave me so much respect for them as artists. Glad you're enjoying them!

Oh yesss, the energy in this concert is amazing..the last before the break ( for the military service) .. I can also feel like I am there. Fun you get inspired👍🤩 oohppidooo, can’t wait for the reunion 2025, want to be in the front row , screaming, chanting, waving my lightbomb …just soaking in the energy. 🔥( I am 75😉)

The livestream of this concert crashed in many country's after 10 minutes, there were 50 million + viewers. Top of the bill, unmatched💜

They did do a video of the dance practice for ''Run BTS" that came out later and it's done really well on YT.

This was last year and a free concert, also the very first time we heard run BTS live and with choreo..💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

I do enjoy your reactions. Having been in a band, you understand the hard work that goes into each live performance. BTS are, indeed, masters at live shows. Have you seen "So What" live yet? It's insane, as in insanely good. Also check out MMA 2019 (best live show ever), "Crystal Snow" in Japan and "House of Cards" in Brazil. The first is an awards show and it's unbelievable, and the latter two are vocal line powerhouse performances. 💜

I love that you aren't afraid to rewind and watch sections you paused in to keep the flow. I'd recommend Truth Untold for a vocal review. It's a song by just their four "vocal line" members (as opposed to rap line) and its a really heartfelt sad ballad. Live and recorded versions are out there.

Just FYI: the song is called “Run BTS”. They have a different song just called “Run”. Also, they have a variety show which has over 150 episodes called “Run BTS”. It’s kind of a mess 😂😂

So not too confusing….they have a show called “Run BTS”. Then they have an older song called “Run”…then this song which is new called “Run BTS”(for which this was the first ever performance of) 😂💜💜 Imo this particular video of this performance made it harder to hear them than some, but still..amazing. Thank you for your insight 💜

Thank you for reacting! I was up at 4 in the morning to watch this concert live and Weverse crashed when 50 million people signed on!!! I was devastated...but I did get to watch most of Run BTS (my favorite song) and see the choreography...which was debuted at this concert! It was an incredible moment for ARMY!!! Keep the BTS reactions coming! 💜 보라해

Just an FYI, fan chants are common throughout K-POP and so are light sticks. Every group and solo artist typically has a light stick that is unique to them. They are programmed to be in sync with each other and with the music. Do a quick search on KZfaq of a light stick ocean and you’ll see some good examples

Disney+ is streaming their Permission To Dance In Stage concert from LA SoFi Stadium. You need to watch it just to see how hard they work. It was their first concert that they did with a live audience after the pandemic. They work really hard to make sure ARMY has a great experience, but they have a lot of fun, too.

I got up at 4AM to watch this concert live with over 50 million people from all over the world.... The website crashed about 40 minutes in and we were all scrambling to find another streaming site. It was complete chaos but so much fun. They showed it again later but there was nothing like actually watching this live from my home in Oklahoma! This was EPIC beyond words and a precious gift from BTS to the world as a send off before they announced their intent to join the military. Also, hopefully someone told you what an ARMY Bomb is... 🙂 I so enjoy your reactions and perspectives and look forward to more! Thanks!! 💜

Mind you...this was a free concert. It was livestreamed ..for free too. I hope you'll watch their live performances more. The PTD concerts were fun to watch. Their solo performances too were INSANE!

This was last year and a free concert, also the very first time we heard run BTS live and with choreo.. The light sticks are Army bombs,, each kpop group has a different design and color.. The chanting was the BTS Army chant ..

no matter how many times we watch this still crazy chills man... all concerts should start with Hobi man, his energy is unmatched 🔥

i've said it before i'll say it again, it's like watching 7 Michael Jacksons on stage. Note I LOVE MICHAEL JACKSON, so for me to say that, they have to be good. i've seen them twice Live, best shows ever!

My fave live performance of Mic Drop was when they made history, as usual, on Saturday NIght Live, they did Mic Drop (had a dance break, great camera angles!) and Boy With Luv. I read that you can't hear how deafening the screams were in the studio, i believe people lined up for blocks days in advance

I’ve been fortunate enough to go to BTS concert. They are on another level, the crowds with the chants plus the light shows along with the army bombs in-sync. Amazing experience.

Keep in mind, RM and JIN were sick with sore throats. Jin had epiglottis and had been under DR. care all week, Suga was sick by the end of the night. The v live after the concert those 3 were not there and the guys explained, plus JIn talked about it later. Those lights are ARMY BOMBS, they are blutooth enabled and sync up with your seat number.

JIMIN y J-HOPE son los mejores bailarines de BTS son lo máximo sus movimientos ❤

I appreciate how you share your own experiences performing on stage. It gave me more appreciation to performers out there who makes it look easy even when in reality it was tiring as hell

and the fact that this was a totally free concert 😌

it's not a tour. but actually a free concert with 100k live audience (as what I've heard) and 49M almost 50M online viewers (crashing the Weverse app from time to time) they were ambassadors for World Expo 2030 Busan. so yeah the fans are chanting the members names at the beginning

I love this breakdown so much. the reason why this set in particular was so important to army was cus that this was their last concert as a band together. they JUST released RUN BTS just a few months prior in their latest anthology proof. it only featured 2 unreleased songs and this was one of them. they were teasing that they wouldn't be able to perform it for us but they surprised army with this performance with their second song of the night. I remember watching this and i was going NUTS when i heard "ye yeh," cus i was like "NO FRICKIN WAY BRO:" the choreo also went hard. i respect these guys a lot. i was a hater for no reason at all except for the fact that they were famous until i heard mic drop in 2018. i fell in love with Namjoon and his swag and then eventually found my love for bts and what they stood for. now jhope is on his way to replacing jungkook as my bias honestly, i am really excited for your journey through BTS, Nathan. Keep burrowing through the rabbit hole! I find that their music heals way more than any other songs I've listened to but still has that mainstream sound to it. I've come to appreciate life in a different way and accept people no matter where they come from and what language they speak. These guys are humanitarian role models and we should all be like our boys

When it comes to live performances BTS is the best! 🔥They are those type of artists that can pull out really good performances that makes people always love it even more than the studio version

And it was a free concert but the energy was still overflowing 😍

I can't wait for you to see their 2019 MMA Full live performance!! Nathan, its going to blow your mind! Trust me.

Once again, I love your reaction. We have finally won you over to the live side. Hee hee They are Rock Stars!!!! 😘💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🫰🏻

Fun fact: This concert was free. Yup Free. Also Jin was sick prior to this but he did amazing. Many did not know how bad it was either, he received injections prior to the concert to help him. This was also their last concert as a group before they enlisted. Their concerts are an experience that unless you have gone you can't understand. The light sticks you see are called Army bombs, they sync into BTS light system that they control and create an amazing light show too. If you see more live concert videos you will see it. BTS also use live bands during their concerts and its fun to watch the interactions between them and they guys in fan cams. I do have to say that I enjoyed watching your expression change just a few seconds into their performance. I know we have said it many times but BTS is like no other. Also what you heard chanting was the fan chat which is the names of the guys starting with the leader then oldest to youngest. Kim Namjoon, Kim Seokjin, Min Yoongi, Jung Hoseok, Park Jimin, Kim Taehyung, Jeon Jungkook BTS!!! BTS also releases song chants per song for fans to chant while they perform. I would say you should watch their MMA performance. It is an award show that turns into a concert. Nothing like the award shows here in the USA. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mJ-Tepd139awj5c.htmlsi=NBQNA4GMBuXjMgnI. This link is to a fun live performance. Leave it to BTS to bring something different. Anpanman kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bZZjgNaAtN7KfKM.htmlsi=3WOLJK0uzUHve1-j. Can't wait to see more reactions. 💜

I tried to watch this online live but it crashed. This was a free concert to promote Busan (JK and Jimin’s home town) in its bid to host the 2030 Expo and I so wish I could have seen it live. It wasn’t quite as long as their usual concerts but they put their all into it and made it so special as it was their last as a group before Jin enlisted. I’m hoping to be able to see them in 2025 when they are all back together again. This was the first time they had performed Run in front of an audience. I had been anticipating a performance of this from the moment it was released and wondered why they hadn’t done a live version but of course they were holding it back for Busan. It has little references throughout to how they work even including the cheer they do before every performance. It has such a lot of energy. Jimin’s shirt had its own choreography. It performed perfectly to give us glimpses of his, ‘NEVERMIND’ tattoo on his ribs. Thanks for reacting to this and for emphasising just how much hard work goes into their live shows.

Thank you for this reaction. I watched this in the theatre screening and it was amazing, closest to seeing them live. Love the earring Nathan

Oh, and they usually do a heavier version of some songs when live. ARMY would beg that they release concert soundtracks too since the versions are amazing. So far, I think only Jhope released a couple of live songs. He re-released Jack in the box to include 2 versions from his Lollapalooza (HOBIpalooza) stage. The whole album is AaaaaMazing! Actually, you may want to react to full albums, even if it’s just their chapter 2 solo albums. It shows you each members personality since it’s their own personal album which that’s managed/created from start (coming up with the songs and what message they want to impart) all the way to how they want to promote them.

1. Yet to Come was a one-time concert in Busan as part of the city's bid to host the world expo 2. That song is "Run BTS", not to be confused with BTS's song "Run", or their variety show, "Run BTS". Lol. 3. The lights in the audience are lightsticks, which is a common thing for Korean bands. They each have their own design. BTS's is called the ARMY Bomb and is shaped like a bomb (but we don't call them that at events. Lol). 4. This is the only time BTS performed "Run BTS" live. They announced Jin was going into the military shortly after this concert. 5. Yes, those were the first two songs of the concert. They kept that energy for two hours. Jin was sick and still sang well. 6. The chant at the beginning is the fan chant of their Korean names. Kim Namjoon, Kim Seokjin, Min Yoongi, Jung Hoseok, Park Jimin, Kimm Taehyung, Jeon Jungkook, BTS. It's the leader, then oldest to youngest.

A cool way to maybe digest the mass amount of songs they have is to watch the MV (if there is one), a live performance on stage and then the dance practice video for the song. It may seem like a lot to put in each video but I’m telling you we WILL watch lol It is so satisfying to ARMY to see people discovering them really take in the full picture and experience of each song. The dance practice videos are like performances in themselves but it really allows you to see the full choreo that you don’t get to see in the MV or on stage depending how they perform it that show. That way you get the full experience of the music with every piece they offer their fans 💜

Their concerts are even better in person! Literally feel like a magical dream where you are being lifted off your feet! They are amazing performers and give 110% for the entire 2+ hours!!!

It was their last concert before they started into their military rotation. Gosh. Just watching that makes me tear up. And when I watch their dance practice of run BTS I’m impressed even more by this choreo.

The way their anger and passion came through. I dont know that they've ever been so incensed. The entire global fandom was screaming right with them from home. They way they performed Cypher with their whole chests and announced their enlistment immediately after the concert. They always do things their way! 🫶

Niice! Cool that you reacted to this. What a concert.

Oh man I love this concert.. this is a FREE concert for army before they started entering the military 😢

„I‘m getting inspired by these guys.“ I just know they would be so happy to hear this because this is exactly why they are doing what they‘re doing! Thank you!

The behind the scenes shows staff with oxygen, ice packs, towels and support to help them recover after performances as they give so much they are near collapsing. 💜💜💜

this was the first time we got run bts live and witnessed the choreography. as someone who woke up at 5 am to watch it live from my home, it was SO WORTH IT JUST FOR THAG MOMENT. ten years later and they still give it 100000%

💜🤗Busan is Jimin’s hometown I think jk too. Jimin, jk, and Suga have marshal arts backgrounds. I like the way you make the screen for BTS the focus as you respond. So much fun sharing the journey with you, thanks for the Love.💜🌎🤗

Thanks for your reaction they're so good live:) your earing is cool btw

This is their last concert before their military inlistment. This is a huge concert and free! This is treat for Armys!!

These guys are really amazing see how hard their choreo keep on moving energetically but they can still sing very well..much respect for them they working hard 🥰💜💜

hi Nathan! first off, I am a fan of Plus One ❤ you guys have produced quality "boyband" music during your era and I still listen to them to this day, especially Be and Here in My Heart ❤ thank you so much for appreciating the guys... I echo everyone's sentiments that they sound better live and their energy, together with ARMYs, is unmatched 💜 I hope I'd be fortunate enough to come to one of their concerts when they regroup in 2025.

This was the cutest reaction lol-you cracked me up! Crazy stuff happened on stage and you stop it and say “cool” in the cutest way I can’t describe it. Thanks for being open minded and love your reactions!

Estaba esperando este video !!!!!!💜💜💜

Love your earring. I'm 62, so I have been to some concerts through the years. Nothing compares to BTS. A stadium in the Midwest, sold out, all ages, ethnicities, men & women. Singing along like we are at a Garth Brooks concert. It's amazing.

Great reaction! These were the first 2 songs of the Busan concert back in Oct 2022. Just the first two! The concert went on for another 90 minutes (approx). BTS is so amazing ~ I am lucky to have seen them live on their Permission To Dance tour in LA. It was truly incredible! The energy alone was just top level. Every ARMY should get to see them live ~ it’s a life-changing event. I rescheduled surgery for cancer to see these guys ~ it was that much of a priority for me to see them. The chants at the beginning of Mic Drop are the members names. And yes, the light sticks change color when you connect them to the venue via Bluetooth when you are at the concert. The staging crew can change all the lights to purple or red, or green. Any color really! They can spell out ARMY or BTS depending on what seat you are sitting in. Very cool effect! Thanks for a wonderful reaction…💜💜💜

That is one of my favorite live performances...not just for BTS...but EVERYONE! They really thrive/feed off of the energy from ARMY. That's what makes them beautiful!

Hi thank you for teacting to BTS live. They are just genuinely amazing. I like the fact that you know tour stuff when it comes to music so you can better apreciate theyre talent. The energy is everything for bts and army.they guive us there all.💜💜💜💜💜🇵🇹

So fun to rewatch this with you! Such an inspiring concert and so special because it took place in october after their June announcement of taking time on solo projects.

First of all I was a huge fan of Plus One, like had all your songs memorized- every lyric - the dances. So fun. (Also went to school with Jeremy Mhire) ANYWAYS I also am a huge fan of BTS and stumbled upon your channel and have had the best time watching your reaction videos. It’s fun to see your appreciation for the little (yet big) things that only you know about being in the business. My favorite comments of yours are about their style and earrings and hair flips 🤩 also watching Jimin become your bias as you join us down the rabbit hole of becoming an ARMY 💜💜

You should watch the ‘RUN BTS’ dance practice! It really shows how synchronised and energy packed performance they deliver everytime

And this is the oppening of the concert full energy!!

I have really been enjoying your reactions and insights. The lights are Army Bombs which are hooked to Bluetooth so the colors can be changed. :) They are chanting the members names. I recommend Cypher pt. 3 and Ugh from the same concert. Those are only the three rappers.

Yeah bangtan gives 200💯each performances!!! NO compromises! it’s a reflection of their character individually as an artist and passion for music as a whole! So yeah!!! They are the BEST!!!

One of my fave live performance ever, mic drop and run bts will really make you jump up and hype up!

Thanks again for having these thoughtful reactions about BTS. We love watching people's reactions, especially from someone like you who's been in the music industry for quite a while. Looking forward to your next videos! This Yet to Come Concert in Busan is a one-time free concert that they did as part of promoting Busan as a contender for the World Expo 2030. In attendance were about 50k people, 10k more people watching in two other venues within Busan who were watching it live on huge screens, and approximately 49+ million ARMYS watching it for free online as well. This is one of their ultimate dreams - to be able to perform for millions of ARMYS for free, and they finally did last October 2022. They also did this partly due to the fact that they will soon start enlisting one by one, with Jin beginning his training in December, only 2 months after this concert - so it's also a 'farewell-for-now-and-we-will-see-you-again-soon' performance. The lightsticks are called ARMYb0mbs. You can use it manually or sync it up with Bluetooth. Depending on where you are seated in the venue, the color of the lights and the blinking speed is controlled and it could create different patterns all across the seats and standing areas, so it makes for a very interesting experience overall as it constantly changes colors. The fan chants are unique to each song. The primary fan chant for BTS are the members' names from the leader (Namjoon/RM), then by age, from the oldest member Jin and down to the youngest, who is Jungkook. They end it with "BTS!" The fan chants for new songs released are typically released beforehand so that when promotions and performances are done, ARMYs are synced and they would know exactly what to chant and when to chant it. The energy in each of their concerts are truly palpable in the air. When they did their tour in Vegas, nearby establishments thought there was an earthquake due to the loud roaring and vibrations they felt. Arena and stadium staff would often attest that the ground would shake every time BTS performs! :) (one staff said in particular that BTS concerts are easily the easiest to work on since no one comes out for drinks or snacks during the performances LOL) I flew out to Bangkok for Yoongi/Suga's solo tour and it was truly magical! Can't wait to watch all of them live! The Run BTS performance is the only live one that they've done so far. Their stamina is truly admirable - to have come from doing Mic Drop which is already physically demanding in itself, then moving to Run BTS which has been one of their toughest choreographies to date. Someone might have already mentioned this - they also do their workouts on treadmills, occasionally singing while running so that they can improve their breathing and singing and build up their ability to not miss a beat and tone even while doing really demanding dances.

Lovvvee love love your inputs! first time reactions so raw and real.. 👍🏼💜

I'm just going to say: "Dance practice Run BTS" it will blow your mind 💜

Thank youuuuu 💜💜

They bring it every time!!!!! Gives you chills just watching them!!!!! Those lights you see are called Army Bombs. They change color the hole concert

I was waiting for your next BTS reactions. Thanks for your reaction. Can't wait for your next reaction.

BTS performances live is a whole different ball game. They give 200% and the fans the same. Saw them at Wembley in 2019 it was amazing.

Would you believe, Yet to Come live in Busan is my very first encounter with BTS. They got me at the very first song, Mic Drop. And have been in love with them since then. I really regret all the years I did not know them.
