After watching this performance I realized that BTS were truly once-in-a-generation artists.

It's legendary!!!! I'm a 61 year old woman, and I think this is the best performance I have ever seen!!!!

I dare anyone to slow down the speed to 0.25x while watching Jimin's "I need you" part. Every single move is simply exquisite!

Only BTS can turn an award show into their concert

This is not even a BTS concert , this is an award show but the great 7 owned it. They are legends THE BEST OF THE BEST! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

They did collapse backstage from exhaustion. They gave 200% to that performance. So good! 💜💜

Jimin is amaizing dancer and singer

jimin's voice is always killing me

Jimin is very humble, King, engaged in charity, orphanages, Jimin,'s dad is also involved in charity, pelps poor families, Jimin has his own Academy of Arts where also help s

I was so happy when you rewatched Jimin's dance. To be honest you cannot watch him too many times. Then Dionysus, so hype, and when RM says "are you ready to be hyped up"? when we are already on the edges of our seats, there is nothing else like it. Not to forget, this was an awards show, not a BTS concert. Wow, wow, and more wow.

I heard several companies pulled their artists from the show as a protest to BTS winning most the awards for a few years. It was a challenge to Bighits. They turned it into a mini concert and took the house down 😍

the theme of the album released in 2019 was somewhat connected to the greek mythology. each member represent a god or a goddess before the Dionysus performance itself every member's solo performance had remixes of their biggest songs of bts' first seven years of career specifically arranged for this show • V (Taehyung), No More Dream Remix (2013), Apolo, god of the sun • Jin, Danger (2014). Athena, goddess of wisdom and war, or Ares, god of war. stage point to the battle of Troy and the Trojan Horse • Jimin, I Need U (2015), Artemis, goddess of the moon and twin to Apollo • Suga, Fire (2016) Hephaestus, god of fire, or Hades, god of the underworld • Jungkook, Save Me (2016), Poseidon, god of the sea • J-Hope, Fake Love (2018), Zeus, god of lightning and thunder • RM, Dionysus (2019), Dionysus himself, god of wine and art, complete with thyrsus - wooden wand entwined with ivy and grape leaves, a symbol of prosperity, fertility, hedonism, and pleasure/enjoyment in general. in the Dionysus lyrics it's compared to a mic. Dionysus is a God often called Eleutherios which means the liberator, because his wine, music and ecstatic dance freed his followers from self-consciousness and the restraints of society. As BTS compare wine to the art in the song, they are Dionysus of music industry, the gods of music and dance, who gift their listeners freedom, food for thought and a helping hand to be strong and be better Giant inflatable leopards are also tied to the lore as leopards are sacred animal of Dionysus Seven lights that were hanging down formed the Corona Borealis - the constellation that represents the crown of Ariadne, given to her before the marriage to Dionysus, made by the god Hephaestus. each star of the constellation appears after each member presents himself on the stage as if they are gifting us the show the same way the crown was gifted to Ariadne, maybe

Omg jimin here is something else ❤❤❤

I call this video “The Baptism” for all ARMY. You become a full member once you see it.

Jimin❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Jimin perfect 👍👍👍

This is utterly iconic. I think everybody's jaw drops when they see this absolute spectacle. (It will not surprise you, I think, to know that at least Jimin and JK went backstage and needed oxygen.)

Yep! I'm 67 now and I have never in my life seen a performance anything like this. The individual performances were all some of BTS' songs. I'll let someone else list them if they haven't already. If they don't, I can let you know what they are. BTS went all out for this one. We later learned that they thought this would be their last award show performance before military. They had planned a tour for April 2020 and then after that were going to start enlisting. However, the pandemic hit and plans changed. MMA 2018 and 2017, and 2020 were amazing too, but not this huge! 2020 was missing Suga because he was recovering from shoulder surgery, but they left space for him. It's touching and it's beautiful too.

Park Jimin legendary dancers 👍👏👏👏Jimin the best👍💯. Хореография Чимина, вызывает только восхищение. У него уникальный стиль. ❤❤❤

Jimin Jimin Jimin Amazing ❤

“Microcosmos”, the song with “I love you” in many different languages, is a song for Army with the message that each of us is a star in the universe. Each of us are special and significant. Our individual lives have meaning. The people at the concert could not see the stars and planets. These were added later for the video.

I super love this performance! They are just born performers (super talented, charismatic, brilliant). 💜

Jimin's dance reportoir is a South Korean traditional dance using Salpuri-Chum (white cloth) as a prop to express how the actor has overcome his fear of uncertainty or the unknown or of a misfortune. Befitting to BTS' I Need You, Jimin used such material in a contemporary manner to express the emotional turmoil of the character in the said song. In the MV of "I need You", it portrayed different types of characters who were dealing with emotional turmoil from the inside and used the word "girl" to mean hope such that, if it is lost at the moment when it's the only thing left as means of survival, it feels like a a dead man walking (like one who is under a state of depression leading to OCD, if not bypolarism).

I got tickets for two of their LA concerts a couple of years ago, and it was legitimately one of the most stressful things I've ever done, lol. The tickets go SO fast, you don't have time to think. You just have to grab a free spot as fast as you can and hope it's good, and hope it is still there when you click on payment. I had a VIP sound check ticket snatched right out of my cart. 😭

This and 2018 mma idol stage are legendary. Love all the Korean culture/elements they incorporated into that performance. Esp jimins infamous fan dance. Also if u haven’t seen it. Skz does cover of Dionysus performance that’s really good 😊

You must react to JImin performances! they are always amazingggggg

13:00 There's a reason we call it The Hunger Games when they release concert tickets. 😅 They sell out the world's biggest stadiums in about an hour and a half, if you're not a fan club member you're out of the running since tickets are available to members first and they always sell out then and there and the most expensive re-sold tickets went for $40,000. 🤯 To put things a little into perspective 😅: - One concert of theirs brought as many foreigners to the country as the entire Olympics. - 400,000 people attended their 10 year anniversary celebrations fireworks show in Seoul and that was "only" a show to their music and not a concert. - They, not their entire company but they alone, account for 0.4% of the South Korean BNP. - They held four concerts over two weekends in Las Vegas and the entire city re-named itself Borahaegas for that week. The instantly sold out concerts were all held simultaneously in two locations: Allegiant Stadium (65,000) and a live-play screen show with all the same practical effects, just not the members on the stage, at MGM Grand Garden Arena (17,000). There were BTS themed hotel rooms, water fountain shows, exhibitions, pop-up shops and restaurant menus and many signs were changed to purple lights. Google Borahaegas - the pictures are stunning! (I've never wanted to be somewhere so bad in my entire life! 😭) - When they held a free concert in Busan in 2022 including free streaming we "broke" 3 huge international servers with our 50 million log-ons. 😂 (But yeah, if they come to Europe again I'm totally trying to get tickets anyway since I haven't seen them yet either! 😄👍)

Jimin dance wow ❤

not me sniffling and tearing up the sec I hear I need U in the piano cause I know what's coming lmao it's been 4 years! still not over this 2019 MAMA, watching it live as it was happening was surreal

This is why they are legends and they will always be loved by ARMYs. Can you react to 2021 Festa Room live? Thanks!

Stray kids performed Dionysus live. Maybe that's why you feel familiar

BTS practice singing while running on treadmills so they can control their breathing, I've been an ARMY since 10th July 2021 and I wish they had found me years before that, am 48yrs old and have listened to rock all my life, I do like a wild genre of music, but when PSY came into western music in 2011/12 that's what I always class Kpop to be, so I always stayed away from it now I regret that judgement greatly because I missed so many years of BTS, but thankfully now they are in my life and I have honestly never spent so much time and money on a group I love so much, bring on 2025 when they are all back with us and 2026 when they'll hopefully go on another world tour and come back to WEMBLEY where i can finally see them.💜🔥💜

There are captions available. The personal cost of this award show mega performance to BTS would be hard to calculate. Financially just hiring the led screens would have cost them millions. Its an award show. They would not have got the money from television rights or tickets sales . Then there is the cost to their bodies of such a long high energy performance. It is an expression of their commitment to fans to give the fans their best. They are still young enough. It will go down as one of the greatest performances in history. Because of the internet we are all privileged to be able to watch it into the future.

Thank you so much for this reaction!!! I never get tired of watching this epic performance !!! You are becoming one of my best BTS reactors!!! You sound so sincere with honest reactions, and I see your interest in learning more and more about our beautiful boys ....I purple you 💜

I am 77 year old Army and have been to dozens of stages shows in Australia🇦🇺 and New York, and this was spectacular . Our 7BTS are born for the career they chose. All the cast and dancers and behind the scenes people should also be congratulated . 🎊 🎉 I never tire of seeing this. To think they are serving 18 months military service . 7 kings 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑 Borahea. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Cuando vi esta presentación quedé absolutamente cautivada con el talento de Jimin, hasta el día de hoy me parece un artista fuera de serie. gracias por tu reacción

This was an unmatched performance. The creativity, skill, endurance, musicality, stage presence, everything was on point. It hits even harder when you're familiar with all of the songs used in here. When you get to hear it all, you can rewatch on your own and see what I mean.

They practice singing while running on treadmills. That’s why they can sing while dancing. 😊

Esta actuación es legendaria. Están haciendo historia. Son, sencillamente, los mejores. Park Jimin sublime

2018 was so good this was their answer to how to you make it even better.

It's even harder when I saw them at Wembley Stadium. They don't go on general sale they are offered to ARMY first and there's never enough even when they do 2 or more nights for a Stadium tour. The fill the biggest stadium in the world ticket's get sold out in under an hour.

Persona, from Map of the Soul: Persona, 2019, is part of their deep dive into Jungian Psychology, exploring identity, shadow, fear, love and the psyche. The two songs after Persona, Boy In Luv and Boy with Luv are answering songs to one another, made nearly 6 years apart, in 2014 and 2019 respectively. The former is an immature and anguished young schoolboy song about love, confused about love and what a girl/lover wants. The latter is a more mature song called "A Poem for Small Things" in Korean, and is about how love is in all the tiny details. Mikrokosmos is a fan song for ARMY from Map of the Soul Persona, 2019. Almost any time they sing about space themes, like stars, galaxies, moon, universe, astronaut, etc, it's for ARMY - their "little galaxy." They have other fan themes too, but this is a common one to look for. They have a LOT of songs referencing, talking about, directly addressing or dedicated to ARMY. They have also said Boy With Luv is for ARMY. The Solo Dances in the intro to Dionysus are all remixes of songs that walk chronologically through some of their discography and each of the guys is a Greek God. ~~ 1 - V - Apollo, God of the Sun, dancing to No More Dream (remix) their debut song off 2 Cool 4 Skool, 2013 2 - Jin - Athena, Goddess of Wisdom and War, dancing to Danger (remix) from Dark & Wild, 2014 3 - Jimin - Artemis - Goddess of the Moon, dancing to I Need U (remix) from The Most Beautiful Moment in Life Pt 1, 2015 4 - Suga - Hephaestus, God of Fire, dancing to Fire (remix) from The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever, 2016 5 - Jungkook - Poseidon, God of the Seas, dancing to Save Me (remix) also from The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever, 2016 6 - j-hope - Zeus, God of Thunder, dancing to Fake Love (remix) from Love Yourself: Tear, 2018 7 - RM - Dionysus himself, God of Wine and The Arts, bearing his Thyrsus staff, power walking to Dionysus, from Map of the Soul: Persona, 2019 The song Dionysus itself is about being drunk on their own art. 2019 was the first year (though not the last) that they swept every grand prize award at this show, and at the MAMAs too. The first, and still only, group ever to do that at either show. They repeated the feat so many years in a row that the MAMAs invented a new award for them in 2022 called the Platinum Award and officially called BTS "The Greatest of All Time." They are the benchmark for excellence. Korean media now regularly name drops them in tv shows, dramas and news, as a measure to show the caliber or scale of something being the greatest/biggest/best, or they reference them as a cultural zeitgeist, and use their songs as references points for things like time travel, because it's a reference everyone in S Korea knows -when this song or this album was out. The broke industry rejects who started alone on their tiny, back street label fought their way every inch to the pinnacle where they now stand. They deserve the world. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Fun fact : In the opening video when they were 'sleeping' Tae was so tired he actually fell asleep really... in the behind the scenes you see JK and Hobi looking at him and smiling, they just left him for a little while ... If you look at him in the lineup at the end of the video he still looks half asleep ... poor things, they were always so tired , a couple of them have been known to doze off whilst standing on stage (Jimin and Yoongi hahahaa )

Always So extraordinary to see someone experience this for the first time!

Also you need to watch MAMA 2019 too they performed their debut song n o and we are bulletproof too 💜

지민 사랑해 💜 최고 👍

During their last song RM slammed that staff down and well it slipped and hit him right in the crotch. He performed that entire song in extreme pain he said, yet you can't tell at all. The show must go on. 59 years old been ARMY since 2013 and will until the day I die.

10:06 TXT, BTS's little brothers 🤗

Хореография Чимина искусство, уникальна и неповторима! Все свои эмоции и эмоции, Чимин выражает телом и вокалом! ❤❤❤

Please react to MMA 2018 as well! The songs in the performance Fake Love Aeroplane Part 2 (There is only Japanese MV for this one, you could react to it as well) Idol You've already watched 2 out of 3 MVs!

After this you need to watch run bts and mic drop live performance at busan concert 💜 this was sooo good too

You're right, it was TXT, but only those who were old enough to be working past 10pm. Those guys were young!

Thenks for this reaction BTS is amaizing in evriting Beautiful performence

@ 32.17 horses part also pre-recorded! no horses were harmed by the loud sounds nor ppl hehe

THey are like this!!! My babiessssssssssssssssss

Es de no creer, estos chicos son mucho mucho más que extraordinarios. La disciplina y capacidad de trabajo que hay que tener para lograr este perfección es digna de admiración. Lo he visto muchas veces y siempre me dejan perpleja.

you can notice when the director edits live footage of ARMYs when you see the ARMY b0mbs waving @ 18.21! but those lights were still on the pre-rec'd version

Stray Kids did a cover of this song - Dionysus (Original: BTS) (2020 KBS Song Festival) I KBS WORLD TV 201218. BTS released this song first on the Map of the Soul: Persona album April 12, 2019; and it was included on their 2020 album Map of the Soul: 7, which was released on February 21, 2020, before the pandemic hit. Then Stray Kids covered it December 18 ,2020.

please do watch RM 's persona and mikrokomas lyrics version separately it got some good lyrics . with dionysus, i would suggest a stage remix or even color coded lyrics video , it have some amazing vocals by all of them, especially Jin's low and high register and his rock scream at the end. It's amazing. stray kids covered dionysus and ateez covered boy with luv and many other BTS songs . i would like to watch you reacting to that as well, if possible.

What a sweet Stay you are!! You said such sweet things about our boys.

Not seen yet blood sweat and tears, on, not today, fire, black swan, film out and more

That last finale is just epic. I feel like I burned 300 calories just watching them. How they didn't collapse half way through is beyond me. They're more than just a music group. It's always hard for me to put what BTS is in words.

35:52 you probably heard it when stray kids did the cover on this song but they didn’t do the full song.

Awwww loved the reaction. And that's BTS for you they just pull you in. And you're beautiful 😍💜

@ 18.18 I had to pause it to clear our name lmao they pre-recorded Mikrokosmos! If I'm not wrong they prerecorded it the day before that MAMA (they were changing clothes while Mikrokosmos was being shown). ARMYs were indeed waving their ARMY b0mbs though lmao but we can't see it on the pre-rec'd video that aired

I’m super late to this, so you probably won’t see it. Hopefully someone else will suggest it. Since you loved the dancing so much and especially what Jimin was doing, you’d really enjoy his #ThisisJimin series. He did a segment of choreo in a bunch of different styles including a couple of beautiful contemporary works. They all led up to his goodbye before enlistment and announcement of his see you later song. Most MAMA and MMA performance has a section focusing on the dance line. I love love love it. Personal favorite for that is MAMA 2016 followed by MMA 2018, but you really can’t go wrong. Can you tell I love dance? 😂

Absolutely loved reliving watching this performance together with you. It must have been my 20th (or more!) time watching it in its ENTIRETY (the good thing is, it never gets old, it always makes you feel this way ❤). Thank you for the reaction video, will definitely come back and see your videos more 💜 P.S. ARMYs have a saying - “BTS ENTERS YOUR LIFE WHEN YOU NEED THEM”, I guess it might have happened to you too?😉 Borahae! 💜

We have seen them live in concert twice and bought tickets for the third show but due to Covid it was cancelled. We've also seen August D live in concert. NOTHING tops them live! It's an experience that is worth it and one you will never forget! It's also amazing that we got tickets at all considering how fast they sold out. We're in the states so they only put on shows at 4 venues over a couple of day but we managed to go 2 years in a row, and had tickets for the third year.

Yes,they are txt members yeonjun and soobin and the rest of the members were there too vibing with bts on the audience 😊😊💜💜💜💜💙💙💙

@LorydannaGr, i’m going to try to catch up I just found your channel and I subscribed and I really like how you are open to many different K-pop generations I two started with BigBang songs but I did follow them a lot until I met 3generation Kpop BTS! Some thing about the songs the lyrics that I became interested in! To me this performance is their top tier performance that I’ve ever seen there were many other beautiful performances but this one was at a awards show it was like a mini BTS concert! I am so glad I found your channel I found someone that I have some common interest in how I started I two has some health problems and finding BTS actually help me by listening and reading their lyrics how meaningful and helpful they were to me!🥰 They’ll be back in 2025 with new music and I can’t wait and I can’t wait to listen to you react to BTS new music but right now I think I will watch some of your reactions and hopefully you will continue the journey with BTS?🙏🏼 Stray kids and even ATEEZ are fans of BTS matter fact there are two members I believe in ATEEZ Who are ARMYs!? I will continue watching your next reactions and I will make sure I turn the notification on!😊🙏🏼💜

Thank you for your reaction. It was a good honest reaction. Yes they moved you with not just their songs but with voices, their dances, visuals and their energy! They really give 200% for each performance .

Muchas gracias por la reacción.......🥰🫶💜

I can’t wait for them to come to Europe some day…and if not let’s meet at the European server at the next online concert or live concert stream. Even on screen, yoongis concerts last year were such a connecting live changing experience 🥹

Stray Kids did a cover of Dionysus, so I think that is where you might of heard it before.

Thankyou for your open minded to reacting to our boys!😊

This is like 15th😅❤time I've watched this. I never get tired if it😊

I knew you would love it. Stray kids are BTS fans and covered dionysus (I am sure someone already told you that lee know was once a backup dancer for BTS). Anyway, I am going to paste the stray kids Dionysus performance in a separate post since youtube often deletes links.

7:21 👏👏👏 Suga 🤩🙌

Just magical

2017 Mama Mic Drop Special Stage also please and I think Idol 2018 MMA

That was great 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Thank you

The 7 lights represents the CORONA BORAELIS or the NORTHERN CROWN CONSTELLATION... In Greek mythology, Dionysus gifted Ariadne a crown as a wedding gift. The crown was made by the God Hephaestus, Ariadne wore it on her wedding. And then upon her death, it ascended to the sky with her soul and became a constellation.

Well, Army is lucky to have you!

Str kids were performed dyonisos of bts maybe there u heard it !

I am amazed that even you're a STAY,you know BTS's songs

2018 MMA

Yeah if you're a Stay then you probably saw the SKZ cover of it. I can't remember which show it was at. Welcome to the fam!

thank you for reacting to them and this performance if you did not already check out their 2018 too it is very good. boharae

They use that gun hand signal you like at the end of both songs for a reason. At the end of Boy With Love, JK actually goes from the gun to an "I Love You" 🤟 sign. I'm not sure why they didn't show it. They purposely tied the songs together in name and with that signal to show how much they've grown and changed from that early aggressive, almost possessive, version of boys liking a girl to this more mature, romantic version. Both are amazing. (I like Boy In Love best.)

Indiscutiblemente: BTS LOS REYES

I think you heard Dionysus covered by other group.

Hi, really enjoyed your reaction to this amazing performance. I imagine you must have tons of suggestions by now, but do check out the 2020 MMA performance if you can. It was during the pandemic, so there wasn’t a live audience, but it’s just as outstanding as the previous 2 years. Stay safe.

Sorry I know I've been commenting a lot lol but I'm just discovering your channel and keep having something to say😭. Last thing but I for sure suggest you react to/ check out the lyrics to mikrokosmos and a concert performance at some point. Its a really beautiful song lyrically and musically (one they've gotten emotional to at concerts when its their last song plenty of times😢).

I have been ARMY since 2014. I am 53 years old now! I sincerely hope you can react to a video documentary called “ This is BTS ARMY”. You will learn soooo much about us and they also have a video called “This is BTS”. Some of that you already know from the Guide to BTS but the documentary on ARMY will enlighten you to much more about ARMY. It is an awesome documentary. Both these videos are by a creator named XCeleste. She is one of the best creator Armies out there. Please react to the ARMY doc if not both. Love your content and WELCOME!! P.S. don’t pay any attention to anyone who makes any bad comments on your channel because there are Anti’s and just as*holes that are not real ARMY that will say nasty things. We don’t consider them part of the ARMY. Real ARMY supports real ARMY ❤ Again welcome 😊

I love you and your videos Jose, I just don't get why KZfaq is doing this you. It looks like they must have some kind of haters working for them. And for that I'm sorry! I love your content, you are amazing! Never forget that. 💜💜💜

I think you might have heard dionysius before because if Im not mistaken SKZ performed this at one point.

No other group can do that

Girl good reaction but i noticed that the video you are watching is glitching even in other videos(i mean the performance not the recording of your reaction) it's not a big deal cuz we watched the performances a thousand times but it would be more enjoyable if you do fix it 💜💜💜

Hola mi niña,si son increíbles, geniales. Deberías ver MMA 2020 completa también te va a gustar mucho. Un abrazo grande desde Chile 🇨🇱 está mamá ARMY. Bendiciones 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🥰❤️💜 Borahe

Funny you should say they are all beautiful they got so much hate for not fitting the Standard Idol beauty idea and were told they were ugly and there was even a petition to the South Korean government demanding they government step in and make them disband. It was so bad the amount of people doing the petition crashed the South Korean Government web site.
