@DT Parker. Here is the link for the full concert. It's a great concert! Seo Taiji posted this on Christmas Day on his KZfaq channel as a gift! : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r7tmm5Np2NispGw.html Also, here is the link with English Subtitles of the behind the scenes of the guys meeting and working with Seo Taiji in preparation of the concert: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/idOaetmkmp7Rhqc.html

Wow can't believe that people pick on me looking young but damn 😲😲😲

대부분의 히트곡이 미국음악을 표절함. 부정적인 시선에도 그가 한국음악계를 바꿨다는것 부정하지못함.

It's probably because they hate BTS 🙄

Tell them say that in Korea. Who dare!!! They gonna be kicked.😂

@@user-yj7mz7mt6z 😂😂yeah

"Invented" is a stretch, *started* sure. Kpop overall was obviously heavily influenced by Jpop, which had been going for quite some time before Kpop began.

BTS has a song that's "Come Back Home" too; I think it was a cover.

서태지님이 아이돌은 아닙니다. KPOP 가수이지...

Perhaps just because he wasn't really in kpop any more, and that seems to be the majority of what people online are interested in watching. It's a shame, as there's good music there, especially R&B.

To be fair, they were seemingly effectively the only option for their style of music in Korea at the time.

Agreed with you

@@AwakeningWings 😁

it was because of the military uniform coats and the red flags but you can see in old performances Seo Taiji and Boys wore similar coats and the flags had nothing to do with Nazis just because of the colour

@@MsKaz1000 I know and they were dressed that way to show a point of view about dictators. It was because people thought that it was a swastika on the flag, but it actually wasn't and I watched that full performance. Seo Taiji and BTS were also speaking about how schools and government force us to be like them. They were talking about things against dictatorship. The lyrics to the song show it too. (The Nazi flags are red and white with a stolen swastika. The swastika is part of Indian culture and many other older cultures and to use it for something destructive was very bad. So no one can use that swastika now. I still see them on lamps and lanterns, but I don't think it's used much now.) So these people who bullied BTS were lying about everything to bring down BTS. People don't take the time to actually look and make sure before talking about it. This is why ARMY protects BTS from these lies and haters. (I'm just sharing this information/knowledge. I don't want to bring up pain about the horrible things people did to BTS but sometimes we have to talk about it. I'm sorry if I hurt anyone by bringing this up.)

The "black face controversy" as far as I could find is an invention based on some clueless kpop fan assumptions, and as usual online endless repetition of such claims. It was seemingly based on one of the members seemingly having a black persons skin colour & style, which would certainly be cultural appropriation in that particular case. However there was clearly no intention to mock or degrade, so it probably wouldn't be what many people would consider blackface. But rather more importantly...that's his skin colour, not all Koreans are pale.

​@@DoubleMonoLR While his skin color is indeed darker than average in South Korea, in some of their performances, it was MUCH darker and his hair is normally straight but he definitely did use black hair styles. I agree that there was likely no intention to be disrespectful, but from interactions I've had online, the black community doesn't tend to care about intentions when it comes to black face and cultural appropriation. And I do understand their side of it when it comes to seeing people turn their appearance into a costume. And while I also do feel that it would be helpful to give people a little (but only a little) grace for things they did when they were young and stupid and didn't necessarily understand why it would be wrong, I can't speak for the black community. I was just letting the reactor know that the controversy exists as a heads-up.

와~ 반가워요^^ 완전 똑같은 분을 뵙네요. 저두 서태지팬이었고, 지금은 아미죠. 시대를 제패한 강력한 이유가 있는 가수라는 공통점이 있죠. 태지 시대를 살아서 행복했고, 지금은 bts를 만나 행복하네요. 반갑습니다♡^^♡

"New Suga" my ass. Seo Taiji is even older than all of them including Suga

@@Roberto-dw5jz Indeed, and Suga certainly isn't the new Seo Taiji.

No it was seo taiji and boys during their must triumph music video.

@@misterpurple9440 i see

He popularised the concept of kpop, which was itself ultimately largely based on jpop. His own stuff was clearly far more based on western performers though, with obvious influences like Cypress Hill.

​@@DoubleMonoLR ... Yes I have also said that in many comments throughout the years, in that is one thing many KPop fans do not realize, that KPop was never inherently Korean. It is a western-based music concept since its beginning. JPop itself also came from the US. Seo Taiji (real name Jeong Hyeon cheol) helped usher in, magnify & popularize Hiphop in SK, which hiphop itself was still only about 2 decades new in the US. Then he mixes that with rock music, because he is first & foremost a rock & metal musician. I think many people thought that Taiji & Boys was a pure hiphop act, but they were actually a hiphop-rock band. He has also met with Jonathan Davis of Korn who bought Taiji's album(s). I think people forget that Korea, along with Japan & other parts of Asia, had been listening to & adopting western music since at least the 19th century, so that is part of the butterfly effect of why KPop got popular because Korea was already familiar with how western music sounded like for at least 150 years, including the regular usage of 12TET & other western musical concepts. Korea was also already familiar with rock music since the 1950's, as the Communist conflict helped accidentally bring that in. Even Korean Trot is a progression of music from the US, also by way of Japan, unfortunately through colonial rule. BTS is one band that is thus making KPop come back full circle to its origin, the US, by being the first of their KPop generation to make KPop even more hugely popular internationally than ever before, even though some other KPop acts did arrive first, like the WonderGirls, but never really made an impact. KPop is also slowly bringing in rock bands. That has been the big irony of KPop, in that they never really addressed that one aspect of Seo Taiji, which are instrument bands. Taiji & Boys also played as an instrument band in some of their performances, not just singing & choreo all the time. One day, KPop may throw away the singing+dancing aspect & incorporate only singing+instruments, just like typical rock/jazz bands, or it may incorporate all 3 aspects, sing + choreo + instruments, which would then copy what KPop's forefathers did 4-5 decades ago, such as the Jackson 5 & Prince. It's one possible future of an industry that is only 25 years old. And even the word "idol" in this context goes all the way back to the days of Sinatra (RIP) in the 1940's when he was an idol, as the word "KPop" itself is just a nickname for this industry & is really formally called idol music. In recent times, Taiji converted his Time Traveler 2017 concert, where he collaborated with BTS, into a theatrical release, including on Apple TV, afaik. It is hard to say if Taiji will continue to make further concerts or new songs in the future, as the pandemic probably messed up his schedule & he is now in his early 50's. He himself did get Covid, but has since got back to normal.

There's no correlation between the two, some people are better at &/or more interested in music or business or whatever. YG was obviously better at business.
