I was ignorant at first too. But as I got to know them more and more, without even realizing, I became an army. I loved your reaction, will be waiting for the following journey. You're amazing💜

I'm so glad you watched this video it's a bit old but it's still a great breakdown of who BTS are. A lot of ARMYs become dedicated to BTS because of their powerful lyrics and positive messages. BTS are also extremely funny guys and they make us laugh all the time with their variety shows and travel shows (Run BTS, Bon Voyage, In the SOOP). They also live stream with us often individually and as a group. Another great video about BTS is called BTS Member Introduction by Taylor Nakamoto, it's 40 mins long but we will watch it all because we love long videos ^^

Fellow Aussie here, I found BTS when they released Dynamite and finally got played on the radio. I heard them in the car and needed to know who sung the song because they were unfamiliar. Within a couple of days I think I had watched over 100 videos and was hooked. The members themselves are incredible, ridiculously talented but very down to earth and humble. The appreciation and interaction with ARMY is like nothing I've seen before and it's amazing to see them just goof off and have fun solely to make content for ARMY to enjoy. The music speaks for itself, they have such a diverse and impressive discography and lyrically they are incomparable imo. Enjoy your discovery

Yeah, Kylie is a HUGE BTS fan. I bought her one of their t-shirts for Valentines day and she immediately put it on & didn't want to take it off. Lol.

G'day Mate! I really loved your reaction. Thank you for being curious and openminded. Sure they have elements that are boyband-esk, but they so much more than that too. I think a lot of us ARMYs tend to get iffy about the terms "boyband" and "kpop" bc a) it has had a negative connotation for a long time, expecting basic lyrics and no involvement in the music (which is not the case for BTS) and b) the term boyband doesn't really do them justice bc they do so much more and many different genres (and don't even get me started on their raps) which is far from the common conception of boybands) and c) kpop is not really a genre, but an industry - which BTS did grow up in/start out as, but has especially in the later years as they've grown gone away from more and more. So they are a boyband, but they aren't. And they are kpop, but they aren't. You'll see down the line. The point is that there's so much great music to discover - and some of it will probably be a type/genre that you wouldn't have thought you'd enjoy, but somehow the way they do it, you'll end up loving it (that was my experience at least. I usually listen to jazz, blues and funk. Some oldschool rock) - however, with BTS... I LOVE IT ALL, and they've opened music up for me to be more than just what I enjoy to hear, and become more like a holistic experience of diving in to lyrics, the hidden meanings, the album story build ups, the music videos meaning, eastereggs, big dance performances, watching their other content. And they constantly mix genres and sounds that has previously not been "allowed" in the West and they make it work. So when Time's Magazine is writing how they and their company HYBE is rewriting music history, I believe them. I've never spend so much time looking into asian culture (and particularly South Korea) and cuisine. I'm learning so much through BTS - honestly. They are a big part of why the world is becoming less "America"/"West" focused and looking more at the entire world. Becoming the first non-English acts to be the top consumed act in the world (according to IFPI). They're moving boundaries and paradigms, and I'm so here for it! Love from Denmark

What the world needs now...more than ever before....is the message of BTS. ARMY grandma, 65.

We should all admit that we're embarrassed by our preconceived notions.

Wow I never knew all this about them. Thank you so much for sharing this with us

Great reaction! Once people understand what BTS and ARMY stands for they realise why they are so big. People who refuse to dig deeper to try and understand will never appreciate them and this is where you find the dismissive attitudes of people who just want to remain ignorant. Keep up the great reactions, I am enjoying your fall into the rabbit hole :)

I found them 2 yrs ago through a Facebook log of the award show MMA2019 and I was hooked. Am also a 66 yr Army. Loving your reactions as well. Nice to find an Aussie reactor. Borahae 💜 💜

Over the years, I've been super drawn to certain music acts in my life. I could run off a list but it's dozens. But I have NEVER experienced anything like the connection I have to these 7 guys. I'm only 2.5 years in but I have never felt so passionately and so connected to an act like this. They are something very very special

Watch A Most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS (Update 2022) by Rice Squad, it’s very well done and informative and give you info not included in this video. Well worth your time. Also 7 Members of BTS (updated 2021) by IdaS will give you more info about the individual guys.

You should watch BTS hardships too, it really makes you more aware of how far they've come and how much they've had to deal with over the years.

The sole reason i stick with BTS was their story and personality. I was never into KPOP, maybe until now? The only kpop group i really admire is BTS. 💜 I'm 31 but this is yhe 1st yime i really fell in love with a band, like you know the feeling of being a real fan of someone. I never bought any albums in my entire life or any merch. But i did for BTS. my daughter who's 6 is also a fan. And BTS is one of the best shared connectionwe have. And i taught her the meaning behind their songs. I always get emotionL when it comes to these boys. They grew up humble and hardworking. If you follow their growth through their variety shows like ru. Bts, bon voyage and in the soop, you'll have this feeling that the boys who slept in 1 bedroom apartment are still the same men now who are living in a million dollar townhouse. Same men, just richer and more famous. They are still those crackhead trainees, only 10yrs older. 💜💖 Ps: SUBBED!

Yay! You know I'm an older person and just found BTS in May 2021. I am hooked big time and way down the rabbit hole. About the names, another good one to watch is Introduction to the 7 members of BTS by Ida S. It will help you start to get to know them individually. When I first started with BTS, I kept getting V and Jungkook confused, but now I can both see and hear the difference and know all their unique styles and voices. Three rappers, Four Vocalists. I just love them, and I was never into "boy bands" in the past either. I also don't classify them as just "K-Pop" even though that was their start. They cover so many genres. One of the things, I think, that I love about BTS is their lyrics. Songs in the US these days all sound the same to me and all have the same love/hate relationship type stuff. I'm not saying BTS songs don't ever include that, but they word things so poetically and beautifully. That draws me in, as well as their personalities, the hard work they put in and continue to put in, and their talents.

Honestly I don't usually watch first time reaction videos because they usually dismiss them etc so it was so so nice to see you openmindedly just listen, I'm glad you're liking them so far. I just found you so idk what to recommend but I'll be watching whatever you react to next!

Saludos desde Colombia.. Soy ARMY de 47 años y feliz de vivir en la misma época de BTS

Once again, I see how sincere you are in your reactions. Thank you so much for accepting to enter the world of BTS with an open mind and without judgment. Much love to you 💜

Thank you for having an open mind and reacting to BTS. I highly recommend the documentary, Rise of Bangtan episodes!

She has another more personal video "BTS From nobodies to Legends 2019"💜💜💜💜💜💜💜And "This is BTS ARMY an introduction to the fans"

YAS! First.....I was hoping you would do this one!! I love all your videos, esp your acapella/pentatonix, later avi ones, and now your BTS journey! Being a fan of all 3 I love to see this! keep up the great work, you're one of my fav reactors! There is so much material to go through when it comes to BTS...there's also a whole storyline to their videos, called the BU or Bangtan/BTS Universe, to understand it is hard as you must watch their MVs in a certain order but XCELESTE is one of my fave BTS reactors and has many great videos explaining the background and history of BTS amongst many others! Some good songs would be Magic Shop, Spring Day, We Are Bulletproof: The Eternal, Life Goes On, Butter, Blood Sweat, & Tears......I mean I could go on and on lol. Anything by BTS is great, even all the solo songs too!

So happy you have gotten into BTS, been with you since Pentatonix's Hallelujah video. Keep going and thank you for great content!

BTS is growing in me. Thanks for doing the background on them. I love to learn how groups come together and where they came from.

So glad you are enjoying this ride. And it’s always gratifying to see when people begin to see the ‘why’ behind the boy’s popularity and fan loyalty.

No, it's the other way around. When a fan buys artists merchadise like shirts or tickets, their album is included as a bundle.

Thanks for beginning a journey to learn about BTS. I've viewed your reactions to Pentatonix - the only other group I've followed from their time on on the SingOff) and feel you will come to support this talented group of young men. BTS has so much for you to enjoy and appreciate.

You seem very warmhearted person... Please check out their rap line... Outro TEAR....

I had the same thought about them but they have become my daily dose of happiness.

AND, We are with you on this journey. waiting for next video 💜💜💜💜💜💜

Thanks for your sincere reaction🥰

I would like to clear up a small misunderstanding regarding bundling. Bundling means that you are automatically buying an album and thus increasing album sales numbers when you buy other merchandise from an artist or group. This includes things like concert tickets as well. When you buy an album directly from the artist label it is not part of a bundle. BTS sales numbers are from direct sales without bundles which is completely unheard of. They are committed to fair play and not 'gaming' the system.

will be waiting for the following journey. You're amazing💜 9

I'm glad you liked them. Please continue with the reactions. I am very proud to be an Army because these boys are responsible for saving many lives, including mine.

Don’t be overwhelmed by the volume of BTS content.🙂 Go at your pace and enjoy your journey. Army will find you. I’m excited for you! Maybe do one of the introductions to the members so you can get a better idea of who is who. 💜

I'm 65 BTS J-ARMY grandma

💜🇧🇷💜💜thanks for your reaction. Sense the first time I heard their songs something make me feels good inside and I was interested in finding out about them and the rest is history 💜💜💜💜💜

Rice Squad as a great introduction video called, The Most Beautiful Life Goes On. Updated for this month. It goes into greater depth. I love it.

Hi ! You could react on Blood sweat and tears, fake love, dyonisus or mic drop, depending on which type if music you prefer, because all of these are completely different styles

Thanks for watching this and being open minded. BTS are an enigma. They are beautiful humans. There is a newere more in depth documentary which I would recommend A Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS by Asian Theory. Thank you for your reactions. With over 300 songs, you will be busy. I promise you. They make all hits. Great melodies. Great production. Enjoy!

I believe that's true. The music industry in the west are afraid of BTS and ARMYs, things will have to change to be fair toward "outsiders and smaller American artists" who get trampled on. BTS aims to change that🤞💜

I always say to people who openly state they cant stand BTS. Ahh... well clearly you dont know one single factual thing about them lol. Even if someone doesnt like their music (its not compulsory lol) how can anyone push hate on these guys for what they do. Its opinions based on ignorance and a complete lack of knowledge. I always hope they eventually wise up in time to enjoy them while we still have them because they are a one time deal and we wont have them forever. Anyway i really love watching your reactions... you seem so open, honest, positive and genuine. My opinion... you're a pretty cool guy lol 😂 💜

Love your reaction...More BTS reactions please🥰🥰

You seem really nice, thank you for the reaction, I loved it 💜

Appreciate your sincere and honest reaction. I can tell you really listened and that makes all the difference. Thank you!!! More BTS please!!! 💜

Now the albums sold on bundles don't count anymore for Billboard charts, but I believe they still count for other sales-related stats

I’m a new subscriber. I am really enjoying your reactions. From a 65 year old grandma in Georgia, USA. #army 💜

you're so genuine, thank you for your time and effort into providing these videos, hopefully as you continue your journey into their music they help you as much as they have helped us and you can look for them as a source of comfort

I have watched all your reactions to bts today from the very beginning and because of this video i clicked subscribe! Please react to more of documentary. The rise of bangtan Most beautiful life goes on

I hope i see more often videos of bts from you . I'm sure you're ganna love this journey Thanks for your reaction ♡

Who is BTS by Ida s is a good guide that gives some info and back story about each member and shows some clips of what they’re known for on and off stage… it’s a good one to get to know the boys more as people … I think you’ll love it. There’s a docuseries called “rise of bangtan” which was created by some army and took like 4 years to make lol it’s like a chronological explanation of the kpop industry which we in the west have no clue how different that industry is lol this opened my eyes and it makes bts even more special than they already are bc of what they’ve dealt with… it has old videos behind the scenes and clips of baby bts but breaks down the important core concepts that have set BTS on a totally different level than other groups of this time. It’s so high quality and each episode is like 40-50 minutes and they have separate “bonus content” episodes that are like 10-15 min for each … I think there’s like 18 episodes right now and it’s just on KZfaq… i think you would love learning through “rise of bangtan” and you would get to see where they came from and how much they’ve grown.. but how special they are has always been there for them… and why they’re so so special on and off stage 💜

I really liked your reaction to this video! The journey is long, the production of BTS is amazing, especially because of the way their team has worked. With their concept albums, video filming work, full of artistic references (films, books, works of art, etc etc), and music influenced by various styles, combined with their own culture. It all adds up to the hard work and particular talent of each of them. You can start wherever you want, but maybe also watch another video about the introduction to each of the members to identify what this group is about and its synergy (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l5adkrGgksXKd6s.html) Nice to meet you channel! (Sorry for not writing well in English)

There is a great new 'getting to know the BTS members' video out by Taylor Nakamoto channel. It is really well done and has all the up to date info. You will love it! I have a feeling you are going to get pulled in and become an ARMY!💜💜💜

I've been following you since you started to react to Pentatonix. You're so kind and sweet and I'm really glad you're getting into BTS. I would love to see you react to Magic Shop. It doesn't have a music video, but there is a good live performance on YT and it's my favorite song by them. Don't get me wrong, I love pretty much all of their songs and it would be very difficult for me to name just one song for the second place, but Magic Shop was the song that made me ARMY, so it will always be my first :).

i'll recommend to check out Mamamoo. Mamamoo is the female version of BTS.

7il x $30 (average sale price) divided by 3% is approx $630,000.00! If my maths is correct anyway.

You need to see their individual introduction. 7 members of BTS introduction 2021 update by Ida S. You should definetely react this video.

ARMY likes to say that you don't discover BTS, they find you when you need them the most.

loving BTS, nice reaction 👍🏼💜 *but Can u pls next react on SLIPKNOT - The Devil in I, the mv have a meaning behind💥

Boy band i a Western construct...There are hundreds of all boy and and all girl groups in Korea .....When I think of boy band I think of each one playing a character...BTS are just themselves

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

I enjoyed your reaction to BTS intro. Please react to their DOPE mv, it has great dance routines to a killer saxophone tune.

Thank you 👍

You should react to the most beautiful life goes on and the rise of bangtan

I'm new your subscriber

I've spent the last few hours watching your videos and really enjoy your reactions. Your commentary is so genuine and I'm looking forward to watching your journey. As some people may have mentioned already, there is an intro out there by Taylor Nakamoto that is the best intro to the members by far. Here is the link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l5adkrGgksXKd6s.html. We're so glad you gave them a chance!
