Fun fact: their live performance for Dope was almost cancelled bcs the lyrics had "swear words". So J-Hope's verse that says "all the whiny idiots" was changed to BTS's pet names in the live performance lmao

The one that you talking bout is army. Adorable Representative MC of Youth. It's like an abbreviation.

During R.M.'s verse he says "Given up on 3? Given up on 5? I like the number 6, how about giving up on 6?". Those are not random numbers, it's a political statement. It's related to one of their political songs called "Baepsae". There's an explanation video for "Baepsae" by DKDKTV where they explain what the numbers stand for. Also since you wondered about what BTS stands for, it's a shortform of their Korean name "Bangtan Sonyeondan" which translates to "Bulletproof Boy Scouts". In recent years BTS also stands for "Beyond The Scene" - it hasn't replaced the meaning of "Bulletproof Boy Scouts", it's just an edition to the name. A.R.M.Y. (often simply written as ARMY) is an acronym and stands for "Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth".

"Dope" is one of BTS’s most infamous songs, which launched them to the spotlight. This is because the music video gained a lot of traction on KZfaq. The song introduces the hard-working guys, who brag about striving for what they want instead of being handed it. And here the explanation of some lines : I WORKED ALL NIGHT, EVERYDAY WHILE YOU WERE OUT CLUBBING This carries the general message of the song. WE'RE DRENCHED, DRENCHED, DRENCHED IN SWEAT, IN OUR PRACTICE ROOM Instead of just assuming their abilities, BTS constantly perfected their moves to the point of exhaustion. OK WE'RE DOPE FROM HEAD TO TOE They are re-defining what many think it means to be dope. Working hard, to many, would not be considered this GIVEN UP ON 3? GIVEN UP ON 5?? I LIKE THE NUMBER 6, HOW ABOUT GIVING UP ON 6? In the original lyrics 3 포 세대, 5 포 세대 are pronounced sampo sedae and opo sedae. They are used to describe the generation that has given up. 3 po sedae, describes millennials who have given up dating, marriage, and having children due to economic instability. Later on it evolved into 5 po sedae which added employment and housing due to unaffordable housing costs and high youth unemployment. In Korean, 6 is pronounced yook. Yookpo is also a homonym for beef jerky. Here, RM jokingly declares that “I like beef jerky so it’s yookpo sedae for me.” THE MEDIA AND ADULTS SAY WE DON’T HAVE WILLPOWER, CONDEMNING US LIKE STOCKS RM is saying that the media and adults are comparing the current youth generation to the post-war boomer generation, and condemning the youth as weak and unproductive because stock prices has not grown as much as compared to the golden years. People in older generation are often not understanding of the challenges today’s South Korean youths face. They remember their prosperity from 1960-1990s when South Korea experienced phenomenal economic growth due to favorable circumstances. However, after the 1997-1998 Asian Financial Crisis, South Korea saw its economy severely contract and its currency plunge by almost 50%. Now, they ignore the fact that it is their generation who have left unfavorable economic environments for the current generation to inherit. WHY ARE THEY KILLING US BEFORE WE CAN EVEN TRY, ENEMY ENEMY ENEMY This is most likely referencing people’s early opinions on the band. When They debuted they faced a lot of criticism because of Bighit being a small and relatively new company. Groups from small company’s often disband after a year or so because they don’t get many fans. Bighit didn’t have many resources either which made it harder for the boys. Namjoon (RM) and Yoongi (Suga) were both criticised by members of the underground rap community as they were going to be an idol group, idols have a reputation of being cutesy and that doesn’t fit the rapper feel. OUR DAWN IS PRETTIER THAN THE DAY BTS used this kind of phrase back in “Tomorrow” from “Skool Luv Affair.” It may or may not be a reference but it is up to interpretation: Because the dawn right before the sunrise is the darkest, you, in the future, never forget yourself of now Wherever you’re standing right now, you’re just taking a short break Tomorrow - doolset lyrics kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ms-YaJWpnN3Vhok.html Produced by Suga, Slow Rabbit Written by Suga, Slow Rabbit, RM, j-hope There is a more positive outlook on the dawn in this song as compared to “Tomorrow”. Since this album is about the blossoming of youth, this more positive outlook encourages us to strive and work hard.

If Alex wonders about the one-camera filming, wait until he watches Save Me. he will surely be blown away. 🤣

Guys, don't worry, it's not one take. That's just the style of the video

Dope was actually the first music video I saw from them. They were featured on FB and well I found them kinda cute. After watching "I need u" I started to stan them in 2015. The only choice in life I don't regret

LOL 😹 That’s what the fandom ARMY stands for “Adorable Representative Mic Controllers for Youth”

This is one of my favorites from the “old” days. 💜

This song was kind have 'hidden message' towards Korean society thingy, so if you guys get confused it's normal. You can watch their explanation video if you guys wanna know more about it.

ADORABLE REPRESTATION OF M.C YOUTH ARMY

This was the first BTS MV/song I ever heard from BTS and it was by accident and I've been hooked ever since

BTS stands for "BangTan Sonyeondan" which is "Bulletproof Boyscouts" in Korean. This acronym evolved to "Beyond The Scene" when the official logo evolved from a bulletproof vest sometime in 2017 to the current logo. A.R.M.Y. (our fan base) is just short for Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth. 🤗💜

That's why I like seeing the lyrics with the actually MV, so it makes more sense. Lol.

BTS= BangTan Sonyeondan (bulletproof boyscouts) ARMY= Adorable Representative MC for Youth You should react to the explanation for this song.. some of the lines are really deep and you need to see it cause I know you appreciate them a lot

*For older behind the scenes to MV's* go to the YT channel *Bangtan Subs* and search for it to get eng subs. They call it "Shooting Sketch". BTS/Big Hit just released the shooting sketch to Dynamite, would love to see your reaction to that. That one since it's new has eng sub though so you find it on their channel.

The choreo for this is amazing🤩🤩

Their icoNic soNg!!froM lyrics to choreography..its so doPe dope dope💜💜💜

If you want to watch a one take MV that'd be Save Me... I'm not sure if guys watched it already 🤔

BTS = Bangtan Sonyeondan. Army = Adorable Representative MC for Youth

If you wanna check out the behind the scenes watch the subbed video from Bangtan Subs!!! they subbed loads of other older behind the scenes videos before bighit started adding their own subtitles.

before continuing to watch.. THANK U so much for editing the audio alex.. appreciate it so much

Yes i was waiting for your reaction on DOPE and NOT TODAY!!! Thank you😊better watch the live perf! It's so so DOPE😳

This is the song/MV that made me ARMY. . .LOVE IT SO MUCH!! 💜💜

Can you believe their energy??!! Wow!

This song has a wayyyyyy more deep meaning than what anyone can think of at first watch. That's what makes BTS interesting and unique. There is a symbolism behind each and every little thing they say or do. I suggest you check out some explanation videos on your own maybe, if you want to actually understand the song💜

Yes dope! One of the most intriguing song of Bangtan 😍 love your reactiong 💕

you guys should check out the explanation video there a lot of puns and details in the lyrics and mv that will blow your minds!

BTS stand for Bangtan Sonyeondan which means in Korean, Bulletproof Boyscouts, recently announced that they will also stand for Beyond the Scenes.

Of course it’s one of my favs

14:33 EXACTLY y it was a wise choice to do lyrics video THEN MV instead of reading it on the MV coz u were missing so much,, again appreciate the time guys

BTS in korean is Bangtan Sonyeondan which is translated to Bulletproof boy scouts they are also called as Bangtan boys or just Bangtan so the lyrics Bangtan style was translated as BTS style, also Adorable Representative MC for Youth is A.R.M.Y lol Dope isn't a one take completely but its filmed to look like one but Save Me by BTS is a onetake. In Dope, bts are saying they worked hard while others partied thats why they all are wearing clothes of different professions there are a few lines which have a deeper context in korean like RM's verse with the 'give it up on 3', 'give it up on 5' so those do talk about social constrict and in a way bts are critising it. idk which mv you guys will check out next but I really hope you guys react to DOPE'S mv shoot

This reaction, that I've been waiting for 🤩

A terrific reaction and thanks for spending time on the camera work. The message? If you want to succeed get off your lazy butt, start working and quit whining and lying to yourself. All that inspiration and you can dance to it too, lol. Stay well.

I cant unhear the misheard lyrics ✊😓lmao this song.

BTS is Bangtan Seonyeondan in korean.. and BEYOND THE SCENE in english.. ARMY(name of the fandom) stands for ADORABLE REPRESENTATIVE MC for YOUTH..

Dope live performance is sooooo goodddd

You must watch live perform dope.. so dope

Thank you guys for doing this, made my morning ☺️💜

Guys I really enjoy your reactions and comments. Keep doing it!!! 💜

I can't wait for you to watch their dance practice of this song. It was indeed superrrr DOPE! make sure to check it out too. 💜

- BTS = BangTan Sonyeondan = bulletproof boyscouts - ARMY = Adorable Representative MCs for Youth - a few things bout the music video - 1) shot in nearly (though not entirely) one take (they do this in the music video for Save Me as well, though that one actually is fully one take) 2) they are all dressed in the "uniforms" of different professions - this is to honor those who work hard, working their asses off for success, as opposed to those who whine for success, but are busy enjoying their youth in frivolous pursuits (like clubbing and getting plenty of sleep), rather than working towards their dreams, expecting to be handed success on a silver platter 3) they are also taking a pot shot at the current socio-economic crises in Korea with the older generations having lived through a huge uptick in Korean economy, having lived "the sweet life", but taking that privileged experience, and expecting the current youth (20-somethings) to ALSO be able to attain that same prosperity, despite the fact that Korea's economy has slowed to a more normal pace, making it difficult for younger people to break that financial glass ceiling due to the older generations now owning everything, and it is much harder to attain that same level of success quickly or easily for younger men and women - leading to songs like BTS' Baepsae (also named Silver Spoon) that speak on that subject - there is a term in Korea, "samposede" ("sam" is Korean for 3), which is used to refer to the current generation's struggles, the samposede implying they've given up on dating, marriage, and kids - "ohposede" ("oh" means 5) means giving up on the original 3, plus employment and home ownership - chilposede ("chil" means 7) adds on relationships and hope, guposede ("gu" = 9) adds health and appearance, and finally, ship-posede (ship = 10) or wanposede (wan = total, complete), which, at this point, means they've simply given up on life - this is like what you guys have spoken of before, how our parents bring their experiences, and expect us to be able to live the same way, and achieve the same results, which is impossible

The dance practice!

Bang Tan Sonyeodan = Bullet Proof Boyscouts = the acronym B.T.S. Also, this music video points out that their journey from a small studio where they all had to live in the same room, pinch pennies everywhere, go out and promote their own events, work as part time back up dancers, was a much more arduous journey to the top than any of their competition, who had the luxury of working for one of the big three Korean music firms, had to endure. Also, the general message that working hard, while all your friends are out clubbing and not doing shitall, is a pretty good recipe for making your life a success (a cool message to deliver to a youthful audience.)

All their later MV have CC. You guys might like to put CC on while watching the MV.

One of my favourites 😍

Good morning guys!!!! Love that beat boxing😎💜 btw: BTS never disappoints! I LOVE their old stuff🔥 heey, it's weird not seeing donuts😂 also I think this is the first time they used a drone camera keying in coordinates.

amazing reaction guys!! one of my fav old songs 💜

BTS stands for "Bangtan Sonyeondan" its a common korean phrase or expression, and in english it literally means "Bulletproof Boyscouts". Bangtan means Bulletproof. And ARMY, it stands for Adorable Representative MC for Youth. That's us. They are our Bulletproof, and we are the entire ARMY. LUV UR REACTIONS!!

I've been waiting for you to react to this ♥

One of my fav 💜💜

Having fun just by watching u guys reaction😊💜

As far as I know, RM/Namjoon added the line "Welcome, first time with BTS?" Because he knew that this song will blew up. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I love how you watch the lyrics then the video

Always waiting for ur reaction guys mmmm

great camera angle!!! review so good ! 방탄 뮤직비디오 리뷰 잘 봤어요!!!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

BTS stands for Bangtan Sonyeondan = the Bangtan Boys / (literal translation: Bulletproof Boy Scouts ) The fans were named Adorable Representatives MC for Youth or A.R.M.Y. But we usually write our name as Army (plural would be ARMYs). You will notice that some articles tend to write that ARMY is the name we gave to/call ourselves. This is not true. The name was officially given to us by Big Hit Entertainment (BTS' label company) on July 9th, 2013. In 2017, when BTS decided to officially break into the western market, they introduced themselves as BTS as Beyond The Scene. But to ARMYs, they will always be Bangtan Sonyeondan 😊.

I love their dance moves on this MV

You can watch behind the scenes MV in the making in BANGTAN SUBS. 💜 💜 💜. Tq for your BTS reaction. Love ur reaction..

This will always be my fav song and mv from bts

9:59 I love Taehyung's expression when Jin is kinda whispering to him and went chose to him

I loved how Allen did the beginning after the 'gooooood morrrrning'! Alex you don't know whats good smh 😜

You can watch the live performance

The busta rhymes though lol

@11:46 Yes it does seem like it was One Take but when it got this part with V, you can see it cut off with black background while Taehyung moves to the next scene.

Dream whatever you want to be!!

They live performance on speak yourself tour, are amazing!! You should check It out!! Lots of love 💜

Hi guys! Another one take video is Save me! You should watch the behind the scenes of it too!!!

Dope reaction

wish you didnt look away during rms lyrics theyre one of the most important lines in the song...

Rap lesson.yey!!!!✌️🇫🇮

BTS means BangTan Sonyeondan, which mean Bulletproof Boyscouts. That’s why you may hear BANGTAN being said a lot cause that’s short for it. But also, it means BEYOND THE SCENES. Which is what BTS stands for in English now because they outgrown the Bulletproof Boyscouts name translation. This was also around the time where Rap Monster changed his name to RM, giving the group a more mature front. Lastly, ARMY stands for Adorable Representative MC for the Youth.

You can react to each BTS MV Sketch Shooting ( the Behind the scenes)

the true one take mv is Save Me its gorgeous!

Dope is really dope💜

No donuts today? 🤣🤣🤣

All their music videos have behind the scenes footage just search “bts (sing title) my shooting sketch” if you wanted to see it 😊

BTS is the acronym for their name Bangtan Sonyeondan.

BTS also means Bangtan Sonyeondan, Beyond The Scene, Bulletproof Boy Scout and Bangtan Boys. ARMY ( BTS fans ) means Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth. And one of our Slang is BORAHAE which means I PURPLE YOU💜 and it created by BTS V

React to Save me, this video was shot in one take

if you want one take just wait for Save Me!

Bts music is always great since beginning, but in kpop industry which (atm back then) is dominated by the top 3 company, being musically different from those 3 in considered "not-in-the-trend" let alone "not-that-fancy" as well...i really felt bad for bts in their early days cuz them repressed by this biased judgement unjusticed treatment and manipulated system in kpop, thank god now theyre the real winner who experienced and overcome all those and no one cant deny it

7:18 RM officially named their fandom ARMY., which stabds for Adorable Representative M.C. for the Youth. Your welcome 😌

U should watch the behind the scenes of save me and listen to look here from there dark n wild album it don’t have a mv

You could maybe react to both the Behind the Scenes AND a live performance in one vid😌

BTS is Bangtan Sonyeondan pronounced in Korean which means Bulletproof Boy Scouts. Therefore, Bang-Tan-Sonyeondan = BTS (the 1st letter phonetically of the 3 words). Then, ARMY = Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth

Istg if you want to see a MV in one take watch Save me...M A S T E R P I E C E ( i think there is a behind the scene to ) . Also A.R.M.Y stand for Adorable Representatives MC of Youth that’s why you prob got tangled in all of this ahaha .

Love this song, this and I NEED YOU put BTS on the map to success!!! Their album The Most Beautiful Moment in Life Part 1 was really their last attempt to go big or the company would have went broke. During this time in their career which we call the HYYH era aka the ‘HWA YANG YEON HWA’(花樣年華)"blooming period of time", like a flower time period, is when they were really changing up their style & were being more versatile with their music. Instead of strictly hip-hop with the occasional love song on their album like in their School Trilogy era with the last three albums they started to have many genres in the albums as well as hip-hop. This is the era where the vocal line got into more singing then rapping and everyone started having a set role in the group like dance leader, main rapper, lead rapper, main vocalist, sub-vocalist, lead vocalist, visuals for the group, etc..(all of them were always visuals if you ask me🥰). This music video isn't a one take but, their Save Me music video is one take and the behind the scene episode is crazy for that one kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sL2Ao9d7udbcmI0.html . BTS Dope behind the scene mv making kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gatyl9hy2tKmXZs.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rrVifrNoxq22oqs.html BTS Dope live behind the scene kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mMuGqMZ3sJyWmI0.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o76jgtyFmMuzoqs.html BTS stands for aka short for of their Korean name "Bangtan Sonyeondan 방탄소년단" ; which translate as literally meaning Bulletproof Boy Scouts. In recent years they changed their logo to open doors fo Bangtan Universe & A.R.M.Y's safe place and made an A.R.M.Y. logo when put on top of the BTS logo it creates a shield. BTS also stands for "Beyond The Scene" for their international fans- it hasn't replaced the meaning of "Bulletproof Boy Scouts", it's just an edition to the name. BTS A.R.M.Y. (often simply written as ARMY) is an acronym and stands for "Adorable Representative M.C. for Youth".

Check the BTS LOVE YOUR SELF TOUR LIVE PERFORMAMCE.. Dope..baepsae..fire..and run

한국가수에 관심가져주셔서 감사합니다

BTS - "Save Me" is a one take. You guys should check it out.

BTS stand for BAngtan soNyeoNdan BulLetpRoOf scouT in english💜

Watch Save Me, the entire video is 1 take.

I almost thought Alex was having a seizure at 5:51 😅

some may get confused but B T S is abbreviated in Korean form. B for BANG . T for TAN. S for SO NYEONDAN. which means BULLETPROOF BOY SCOUTS in english A.R.M.Y. however stands for ADORABLE REPRESENTATIVE M.C. FOR YOUTH. 🤗💜

LMAO MCs for the youth...um should i tell him guys?

Guys my CD for Map of the Soul 7 version 2 came in today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Fun Fact: The order they entered the elevator is the order they joined BTS 😁

save me reaction, please 💜

I think the whole "dress up/ role playing" vibe was just a thing at that time in Kpop--- they dressed up like military etc... Other groups did it too. I don't think the dress had anything to do with the song at all.
