Fine, I'll say it. Jack in the Box is a conceptual masterpiece and not even the majority of armys give it the respect it deserves.

A random fact you might like to know, Hyunjin said a few times how this has been one of his favourite tracks this year!

I am a Stay, I respect others esp. BTS, I have faves but I am not a multi-stan just full blooded Stay. However J-Hope become special for me with this album. He really is one of the best.

No vocal effects. Just j-hope's powerful voice. He can beatbox and has very good control of his voice.

I think in my interpretation, Arson is a song in which he expresses his question whether to continue burning brighter but risking burning himself out, or to just stop the fire and take a rest. You can see this in his line: "If anyone asks me, Right, I started the fire right away Now ask me, "Choose what?" Do I turn the fire off or burn more brightly?" Its a question about what would someone do if theyve reached their dreams and have done everything, but also understood how hard it was for them to get there. Would you still go on and risk everything once more, or stop while the audience is still clapping and take a rest finally?

If you liked this you're gonna love this song live at lollapalooza, all the concert for that matter ❤

I am a Stay but in BTS jhope is my bias, he is just great

Jhope already went to the military and yeah the track with jcole he let his idol which is jcole almost have the song bcz first he respects him so much + it's just a lil surprise for us before him joining the army. Jhope is known for being the sunshine since he's the most smiling person in bts and always radiate positive energy this album was so new but it also shows how much this young talented man is capable of. He is an absolute amazing performer so yeah looking forward to the rapline future reactions I can't wait! I'm getting addicted to your bts reactions ngl,I'm having them on repeat

he is SO cool for doing this style. i really admire that. because it was not everyone's cup of tea. he wanted dark. not just being sunshine hobi but show other colors. he did great. i really love this song.

Jhope is a bright personality u can see that in his songs like EGO or Hope World but with his solo album he changed his style to a darker theme 💜💜

Thank you for reacting to J-Hope! This song is quite meaningful for both J-hope and Army in the context of its time. This album was the first project to come out after the news of their enlistment plan. Previously, they also had an honest talk regarding their opinion on the effect of their rise in fame. They discussed how stagnant they felt as artists because of how restricted and hectic their lifestyles had become. It seemed they contemplated a lot about what they would be doing going forward. So the burns in this song could present both his passion for music and his rise to fame. How both of them burned him out as he walked the path. This song seemed to encapsulate that contemplation he had regarding his own career. But personally, I feel the album is his conclusion to that contemplation as it showed his determination to keep doing music. That message is more emphasized in the song 'More' in the album.

Oh my goodness I’ve been begging for this for so long!!!!!! Thank you Teddy!!!!!

And here is my favorite J-hope song. Right in front of "More". thank you for your reaction!

Hobipalooza was amazing! I suggest watching the performance as a whole. His reaction to the crowd singing during daydream melts my heart

the fact that teddy is reacting to bts at bts day makes me sooooooooooooo happy

Jhope is A BOSS his rap , flow and everything are a masterpiece

This song is fire ! I'm glad you liked it ^^

💜🇧🇷💜JHOPE’s voice is very unique and he’s such a amazingly versatile talented artist in so many ways!!! 💜💜💜thanks for the reaction.

Thank you for your reaction, Teddy. It's always interesting to watch. J-Hope is an amazing artist and person and I'm happy you enjoyed it. ❤💜

All BTS rap line have talked about the toll that fame and success have had on them in their songs. Suga in "Interlude: Shadow" and RM in "Wild Flower". You're right that success have brought a lot of pressure on them, not just the feeling that they have to constantly release music that's better than before, but also that they've become some kind of ambassadors of K-pop and Korea in general. I mean, they spoke at the UN when they were only in their early 20s. They began all this because they love music. They didn't set out to become the pride of Korea, and yet here they are now. They speak about this in "Yet to Come". Anyway. J-hope headlined at Lollapalooza in July last year and they rearranged his songs to have a rock festival vibe for that. The rock version of this song was created with the members of his Lollapalooza band. I hope you'll react to more BTS on this channel. You seem to really enjoy all of their songs you've listened to.

As I checked out your other reactions I think you would really enjoy his single called "More" . That song is a literal masterpiece 💜

So his whole album, Jack in the box, is this vibe. Check it out. My favorite is Safety Zone.

j-hope is my favorite rapper in BTS. I mean they're all phenomenal and have such different styles but I appreciate that j-hope's versatility and concept building. And he really can do so many different things with his voice so sometimes it sounds like you're getting four different artists on a track that's really just him. He's a subvocalist in BTS too so you get vocals sometimes too. He was a street dancer for a long time and has excellent musicality so his flows always hit just right and he's really creative with them too. And he's like the true hip hop head of the group so he brings in a lot of old school influences too. And his lyrics are great. He writes really abstractly and does a ton of referencing external content so it's hard to come by good translations and a lot of the wordplay and context go over non-Korean speakers' heads but if you spend a lot of time with really good translations, there's a lot to uncover in the lyrics. Anyway, I hope you'll check out more of his stuff! He recently did a collab with J. Cole and he's got some really different songs in BTS' discography and his first album Hope World!

J-Hope said that because he is always cheerful and hopeful as part of BTS, which is something he does on purpose to bring hope to Army, that he went darker with this whole album. This was just a different side of Hobi vs being BTS's J-Hope. There's something about this song that reminds me of ICP in the beat or the music, I can't put my finger on what it is.

With J-hope he always is refered to as sunshine but the sun that warms can also burn - in this case his passion can/does consume him. He showed us his dark side for the very first time in this album. It's modeled on the story of Pandora's box.

You might have heard this via Lollapalooza. He was a headliner. It was crazy. I always say that J-Hope raps in staccato. He's a dancer and choreographer so his mastery of the beat is so creative. I'm sure by now you have seen Neuron. So super talented. For me, a lot of this song is that even though they've achieved great things, there is always a risk of losing the private self, the core of who you are. BTS members are very humble and always concerned about staying grounded. Add to it that they've achieved so much but what is the next step? Where do they go next? They've already achieved so much higher than any k-pop before them so how do you do that. South Korea has to maintain an active border against North Korea. There is real and present danger along that border and not something to be taken lightly. They serve in combat zones and the training is very difficult. South Korea requires all able bodied men over the age of 18 to serve. The length of time is generally about 18 mo to 2 yrs. Those not physically able (like Yoongi due to his shoulder surgery) must serve in civil service. Those with special circumstances may be excused - things like if you have a low education or if you are the sole provider for your family. But they are very limited. Women originally were excluded as they stay home and care for the family. It is likely to never change because South Korea is currently experiencing a severe decline in population that is really serious. They have the second lowest fertility rate.

I really loved this Album from j-hope because it's so different from what he usually does, he showed us his worries and fears and darker thoughts more than he ever has. When I first watched this mv after the rest of the album I was honestly quite worried for him and his well being, a lot of the lyrics deal with his struggle with the title j-HOPE when he can feel hopeless. in this song the line "choose what? put out the fire or burn even brighter?" made me concerned for him like he was going to keep pushing the fire despite the pain it causes him, or quit altogether. I really loved discovering new sides to j-hope in this album and how experimented with styles that were pretty different than he usually does.

The lyrics of the entire album is masterpiece. I love the messages so much!

I’m a stay and I ❤❤❤❤❤❤ this song It’s always on rotation

this man is an top PERFORMER IN KPOP OVERALL seriously i was so impressed by him

Thank you for appreciating jhope's music. better watch his live performances he sounds even better singing live.

j-hope é um artista completo, eu amo a versalidade dele como um profissional da música e do entretenimento em geral.

This is my first time hearing the song all the way through, but my initial take on it is that he set out to make 'fire' for himself and expected to bring everyone around him up with his own fire, but he accidentally made himself so hot that it scorched the earth around him, making it so no one could stay close to him and isolated himself, which is basically the opposite of what he wanted/expected. Obviously as a metaphorical take on his own life, that heat could stand for his fame, money, talents, whatever. I dont know if there is a deeper or continual story there through his solo music but thats what I get from it for now.🧐

I think you would appreciate his album Jack in the Box

Arson is totally about a choice. BTS "burned" do bright and he is asking himself...should I keep going or stop right now. Do I burn even brighter or quit. It's a crossroads.

Btw, i don t think that therr is an effect on his voice... It s his specialty... He does that. He raps as if his words were cut.

JDope❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

BTS members always sing deep and difficult songs due to their artistic intelligence

You have to listen to his album Jack in the Box, his masterpiece, as if you were living a story

there’s actually no effect on the choppy part. he does that exactly the same live

I think the fire Jhope is singing about is his own burning desire to be great!

this live is an amazing watch !

Jhope is always always suprising 😅❤

Thank you for taking the time to check out more of j-hope's music💜 you definitely got to check his jack in the box album!! 12:46 since you confirm your bts bias is Suga, you gotta check more of his discography too. I remember your reaction to his Amygdala MV and you was beyond touched by every word/message he said about his true life story. I'm glad your enjoying his songs so far😊💜. Hopefully someday you come around to get into the rest of the guys and BTS discography as a whole, so take your time. Thank you again, Teddy!!

Arson has been on my top 5 repeat list since it dropped...I am OBSESSED with this song and Hobi

Watch the live version from Lollapalooza 😘💜🤘🏻

Oh my god!!!! Can’t believe you reacted to this 😇

The rock version is very good, too! It's nice watching you reacting to BTS again. Thanks!!!

I think and I’m no one ! It’s saying we did what we wanted as Artist and Idol, but little by little we are showing you,who we are as individuals, but we are coming back stronger than ever! That will be it !!! Army 💜Borahae

El estilo de J hope es increible ,por favor sigue reaccionando a el ,y a la rapline de Bts ,son tres raperos cada uno con un estilo y una esencia diferente 💜🔥 J HOPE el idol más completo de la industria

Thank you for this reaction 🔥💜

Its oldschool hiphop track in the back that he took inspo from! 😅

17 and 18th on Theaters the Jack in the Box documentary …. nice place to get some answers 😎💜💜💜💜

That butterfly across the screen 💀💀💀💀💀💀🤣 WAILINGGGGGG!

Great reaction!

Eyyy🔥🔥🔥🔥

Es su voz , no hay ningun efecto ! 💜 Dele un vistazo a su presentación en "Lollapalooza " 😎 👋 🇲🇽

i love jhope so much, this song is so great i loved his flow

ARSON

J Hope is awesome.

I’m so glad you liked it😊 I really love you reactions, but honestly… I would have stop to belive in you if you didn’t like this one😂

Jhope King 💜

*React to ‘More’ by Jhope and then watch the MAMA performance of More and Arson it’s AMAZING.* Edit: also in 5:48 when you said that he became darker as a person after passing through the fire you’re right, with this album he wanted to show a darker version of himself and since you don’t know him that much I’ll explain it to you shortly. J-hope is known from his shinny personality, for always being smiling and being positive, so this is the other side of him and he wanted to show it to us. 7:25 that’s just his voice🤣 he spells it so fast that it gives that sounds, he can do that on live too so I don’t think is edited.

Thank you for this reaction, I love this song. Also i hope you can react to more P1harmony, their bside Heartbeat Drum is so good.

J Hope is a fan of old school hip hop and the high hat beat is from back then - at least that's how I remember it from back then :)

Finally

Excellent questions, he's saying I've done it all should I burn it all now or carry on with his success as only he can put out that fire that passion he has for what he does.

j-hope at Lollapalooza next!!

I’m stay, and this is my favorite bts member solo album. 😭❤️

감사합니다

Como un mujer de 37 años te digo que gracias a BTS he podido conocer y amar el rap , como grupo son personas influenciadas ir el hit hop

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Arson was about how Jhope "set himself on fire" by training so hard, wanting to be famous. The "flame" spreading rapidly across the world is how BTS has become more popular than they ever expected. In the second verse, he reveals how now he's gotten fame and success and reached all his goals. He's not sure whether or not he wants to continue "burning" but he feels like there's nothing more to achieve. Its almost like hes at the top of a mountain, remembering the struggle and hardships of climbing up and looking up to see nothing higher than him. It doesn't feel cocky cuz of his almost hopeless feeling of what more can i do.

❤❤❤❤❤✌✌✌

Love that you're reacting to JHope ❤ Baseline from Jhope is definitely worth a listen 🥰 its short and sweet but I'm telling you Jhope has this grit to his voice and raps and I just can't get enough! Love your videos 😊

You mean his track 'More' you are in for a treat. Both tracks are off his Jack In the Box Album.

Instrumental just sounds like old school Cypress Hill and 36 chambers Wu-Tang

Jhope 🔥🔥🔥

I'd recommend some more of agust d's b side tracks from his most recent album. I think you'd really like how lyrical he is with each of his tracks.

React to more by jhope you'd love it

My ultimate groups are stray kids and bangtan ❤

No me jodas que reaccionaste a ARSON. La música de jhope tiene mucha influencia del hip hop, te he seguido desde la primera reacción a skz así que he estado ansiosa para que reacciones a jhope y no solo sus colaboraciones. Definitivamente debes relacionar a su álbum porque es 🤯

More BTS please💜💜

You should check out BTS live performance of ‘Tear’! It’s jhope, RM and Suga (Agust D)

Who would have thought?

This one is a very good song, not my favorite from his album Jack in the Box, but still so good that I never skip it. The voice effect you mentioned is j-hope's own voice beatboxing his sentences, he is very good at that. j-hope's rap style is very different from RM's and SUGA's, he is a dancer so he knows rhythm and his voice and flows are very percussive. As for the lyrics, I think he sees himself as an arsonist since he is always burning up with passion and hopes for his craft. He burnt himself up while becoming a global artist, now the hard work is DONE, he burnt it all (his hopes, his passions). And now that he has everything that came with his hard work, fame, "money, of course", he is asking himself if he "puts out the fire, or burn even brighter?" "Put out the fire", as in resting, no more burning himself up. He definitely deserves to rest. But, hopefully, he choose to "burn even brighter" because we need more music from him and a solo tour with this album and his previous mixtape.

Please react to Jhope's MORE... 🙏🏼🙏🏼 I love your reaction videos❤️

Hola, JHOPE es mi artista que me encanta su musica, su personalidad y sobre todo su flow, podrias reaccionar JHOPE en lollapaloza en chicago E.U es en vivo y de verdad es muchísimo mejor en vivo

I want you react to “Hello B” - CL, want to see your reaction 😢

teddy, thank you. hope you can react BTS on your channel next time. no one knows. but respect to you💜

The beat is inspired by Wu Tang

You should react to RM doing ‘Do You’ and ‘Joke’.

I really hope you do some BTS reactions on here! I suggest starting with their older stuff. More hip hop and less poppy.

Do Huh! By Agust D and J-Hope fron d-day the new album. It's drill 😁

Bts mic drop you need to watch bro

i'm confused... why won't bts ever go on your youtube page?

Hi, I am a new sub. Good reaction, ty. I know u said u love Agust D stuff. Did u see his Agust D ‘give it to me’ MV kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lcCXlpRj3rKZo6c.html it is the 2nd MV after his Agust D one it continues a story. Well JHope I feel uses if not the same bridge than a similar setting as Yoongie. Love the connection. This was something else. Really powerful and scary images. I totally forgot to turn CCs on on 1st watch. Oops. For some reason it felt short. The ppl running on fire, geez. Ok, rewatched reading the lyrics. This is deep I think. My brain is not that insightful. I am going to have to watch reaction videos to figure this out. I want to know JHope's msg. My brain is just not working to figure it out. The Visuals were cool. Scary but cool. It's rap so it's short, makes sense. I did not like it much on 1st listen or even 3. It took me some time to get used to his rhythm. I Like More better its catchy. I like his truth. Hope u check out More by JHope, Chicken Noodle Soup, Hope World mixtape and Jack in the Box album. Hugs. -NY USA 2019 Army💟 Wendy said on 7/25/22 Basically, Hobi is telling a story of how he's the arson that started the fire of his career and only he can put the fire out, so he says, the motivation behind his thoughtless ambition, like fame, money started the flame. 2 verse he goes into now that he has all that, up goes his born haters, but he's good, because he has his fan, label and fellas, that they burn bright together, Arsonist was fun, and tells the haters to F off. Now that he accomplished everything and created this chaos what's my next move. Choose what? Do I put out the fire or burn brighter? 🔥🔥🔥🔥 @alicesworld1 said on 6/2/23 70 year old Army here. J-Hope was the first member to release his solo project after their break announcement at their last Festa. The break was to work on solo projects prior to enlistment in S. Korea's mandatory military service. As each one finishes their solo projects, they will enlist so they can reunite as a group in 2025. (Some members have more than one project.) "More" was released as the pre-release single before his album "Jack in the Box". "Arson" was released as the title track. Shortly after this, he was the headliner at the famous "Lollapalooza Music Festival" in Chicago last August. He broke attendance records. I may never get over that concert. I have probably watched it at least 40 times. So good!!! You should react to it in two parts. P.S. For real lyrics check out doolset doolsetbangtan.wordpress.com/?s=arson Arson was Produced by Michael Volpe and Written by j-hope, Michael Volpe. If u want song details she is the go to for us.
