P.S. BANG PD went to B-Free's company to talk to him after he heard "that" interview. B-Free (like the coward that he is) refused to meet Bang PD face to face. So that night, Bang PD took the BTS members to a nice dinner and comforted them. Then he posted on Twitter something along the lines of: "It's okay to give constructive criticism but why did you have to come to BTS' celebration and bully kids so much younger than you. We all need to think about what it means to be a better adult." This just reminded me of Namjoon addressing the haters at PTD Vegas Concert and his VLive recently. He had amazing role models and mentors. PPS. B-Free is arrested again for assault and starting "beef" on Instagram with other rappers. Never grew and never learned.

This documentary was put together so perfectly that there is no need for a narrator to speak about the story. All were evidenced by videos, vlogs and clips that deliver the story so well, with emotions and truth. Thanks so much fam!! Pls do continue this. I will always join you from start til end!! Come on!! L💜

JK: I want people to be able to say "I'm a fan of Bangtan Sonyeondan" without feeling embarrassed. Me: I've never been prouder of anything in my entire life. 💜 BTS Forever 💜

Shoutout for Aneesa for her hard work on The Rise Of BANGTAN

When we say BTS helps us in so many ways, this is what we're talking about. I've been their fan since 2014. The level of standard that has been set upon us is so high and their music and messages helps me to get through all those expectations and hardships.

What I also really loved about this episode was how it contextualized struggles of Korean youth at that time alongside BTS' performance of N.O so you can really see why their music and lyrics resonated with so many young people that time. They were truly representing struggles and stories of their people, that's why they're so powerfu. 💜

Our boys have done so much and come so far its amazing to look back on, it can be hard to look back on some on the hard things they had to go through but it helped to make them who they are now and we love them just the way they are 💜

I will remember your words Blaze, 'celebrate every step you make to help you move on to the next' Thank you for saying those. 💜

8:45 "LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT NOT WHAT THE WORLD TELL YOU IT IS" -BLAZE

BTS was the only group at that time brave enough to clap back at the system in Korea, thats why the youths latched on to them so much .. they literally voiced how the young people felt at the time 👍 fun fact did you guys know whenever they got negative comments RM would translate it to positive comments so the members wouldn't get hurt .. staning BTS was the best decision I ever made .. subscribing to your channel is second best .. you guys are the best reactors of BTS on KZfaq 100% 👍👍🥰🥰💜💜💜💜💜

I’ll never understand why some guys are so pressed about others acting “feminine”. Most of the time they don’t even realize they’re being misogynistic.

I so appreciate your honest reactions to this excellent series. What amazes me every time I see that awful interview is Namjoon's and Yoongi's maturity in their response. As young as they were, they were the adults in the room. 💜

I loved this reaction! I still can't believe BTS had so many bangers so early on, I mean the 1st mini albums trilogy is impeccable, I kept it for months in my car and vibed so hard! Aneesa is doing such a great job! I love this series.

I'm with U guys on getting angry at that discussion with BF that I refer to as BS trying to dis our guys like that. RM kept his cool at such a tender age. Very mature & above BF's immature level. Don't mess with Suga. He's from the trenches 😂

I absolutely adore this episode, really one of my faves. The way they held off the remainder of Rise of Bangtan and inserted that BFree interview-and THEN playing the rest of it in the end when they won their much deserved awards will never not give me chills! I totally agree with yall, this documentary is storytelling masterpiece for sure. Always excited for the next yall! 💜

This documentary is truly a love letter to Bangtan. It's executed so well and gives a lot of insight into their early stages of progress. The creator really did a phenomenal job.

It really takes a lot not to cave to the wrong expectations of your peers and to allow yourself to be publicly vulnerable. Impressive for a group of young men. I think RM, Suga and Jin's personalities really set an example and created an environment for the other boys to grow without toxic masculinity.

Super thankful to the OG ARMYs for encouraging the boys when we havent found them yet and having their backs. Love this family so much!

Sometimes I forget how much have happened in 9 years but damn I'm glad to still be a part army even tho I'm more a casual fan because of university requires so much atm but if it weren't for bts and kpop in general I wouldn't have some of the choices I've done to get me where I am today and for that I'm grateful for the genre and community

So glad you guys are watching Rise 💜💜💜 I also meant to say how impressive Namjoon’s response was, he didn’t go to B-Free’s level.

BEST 38 MINUTES OF MY WEEK. TALK ABOUT REAL GENUINE REACTIONS! You guys made this soooo much better. I felt your rage, I felt YOU feeling MY rage when Be free tried to mess around with our boys. Thank you for being so authentic man. I'm not watching this series without you guys. I purple you 💜💜💜

리액션에서 정말 진심이 느껴지고 정말 제가 좋아하는 리액션 채널중 탑3에 들어가요 🥰🥰🥰 앞으로도 잘 부탁드려요💜

Their struggles paid off although it's heartbreaking to see them being pressured and struggling but every pain and suffering paid off there is no success without hardships

Been waiting for this, yay! Calling out the greatest fandom ever #BTSARMY and show love to our 7 Kings. BUTTER THE GAP ARMY! Stream #BTS_Butter in all music platforms! The Billboard's Hot Trending Song by #BTS

Sofrendo sem legenda em português!!! 😬🤣🤣... Mesmo não entendendo, o que dizem, sinto o carinho, a atenção e o respeito que vocês têm pelos meninos, por isso, curto, compartilho e comento... Vocês são uns queridos... 🥰❤️🇧🇷

Love watching this series with you guys! I became an ARMY only 2 years ago when the pandemic hit, and I was in not a very good place and BTS is literally what kept me going ♥️ I've come to know about their history and whenever I watch these things, it gives me such goosebumps because these guys have worked so hard right from the start. And the most amazing part is that whatever they were saying back then abou working hard for us and being grateful for us, they still say the same thing with maybe even stronger emotions. It's such a rare thing to see such humility in artists who are that level. And that is why nothing can compare to the love and respect that BTS and ARMY share with each other.

I'm so glad you guys are watching these. I need bts to perform attack on bangtan again .😍

Come One!!!🤗 Cada Episodio de "The Rise Of Bangtan" me conmueve mucho, mis amores hermosos han logrado mucho, los amo tanto🥰💜!!!!!

This Docu series is the best and I'm so glad to be watching it with all of you. Looking forward to the next episodes.

I loved all you all's comments. Today, Blaze was the Philosophy King, thank you so much, I learned a bit. ❤🙏🏽❤

I like it, I love it, I want more of it! This is such an amazing series. It's so well done. The editing is so dang good! Aneesa is a puppet master of our emotions. Respect to her. And watching it with you three is the absolute best! I feel like we are on this amazing ride together! That clip where "BFree" & his no clout crew spew their toxic masculinity/gate keeping all over RM & SUGA gets my blood boiling every time too! But the rest is pure joy, especially during the montage where "Attack on Bangtan " is played & where they read aloud their heart-felt letters to ARMY'S. They are so genuine, sweet, funny, cool, generous, hard working, humble & talented! How can anyone NOT love them all?! Lol I love you all too! BORAHAE Blaze Nico & AJJ!💜💜💜👑👑👑 BORAHAE Aneesa!💜🙏🏼 BORAHAE ARMY!💜🤟 BORAHAE BTS! OT7 4EVA! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🇰🇷

I only started listening to them a week ago and I'm seriously obsessed. They are so disciplined, diligent, humble and professional.

I’m commenting on this even before watching because I know I’ll love your reactions/comments to the documentary. Your sincerity and kindheartedness always shine through and I always love watching your vids… am so excited to watch this episode together with you guys.. let’s get it!! 💜

So, fun rewatching these with you. I can't wait for the newest one to drop. The storytelling is so great, each episode is so heartwarming and I'm always sad when an episode ends.

Blaze, that's wisdom right there. You're right. Celebrating life's beautiful moments, big and small, keeps your heart, mind, and soul healthy. 💜

A big thanks to Army Aneesa for making this (THE RISE OF BANGTAN)..She's put her blood,sweat and tears here for us Army to get to know more about our lovely boys.and as i've already finished watching all the chapter,my love and admiration for our lovely boys is much deeper and since I'm at the dawn of my life their music will be my companion till my ears can't hear no more and till my eyes can't see no more..I'm so happy I've found them. BTS ARE HEALERS BTS ARE LEGENDS 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Ugh, this is SOOO good! I love the editing and the storytelling! This kind of behind the scenes footage is nice to see! I'm getting some nuggets that I didn't know about BTS, and Korean culture as well. Seeing how tough it is to make it, and how hard they've had to work just solidifies my love for them, and my being an ARMY! They've brought so much love and light into the world these last 9 years, but most importantly, they've inspired and given hope to the Korean youth who are under so much pressure for perfection. I'm sure BTS didn't debut knowing they'd change the world, but they have in many ways, and they'll be forever loved for their presence...

Ikr ajj this series really feels like it fills in any left over cracks no matter how far down the rabbit hole you are! Kinda like sets the scene or puts a backdrop to eras and moments you know happened in their journey but never got all the little details to.

Gracias WhatchaGot2Say por tus reacciones a los vídeos de BTS, me la paso Increíble con ustedes, son tan sinceros, son geniales, increíbles, me alegran mis días😂😂😂💜💜💜!!!

Maravilha vcs estarem vendo este documentário do BTS. Adoro seus comentários!

I'm always up for the Rise Of Bangtan series and yes, I'll "watch it 'til the ee-end" 😜

I am fortunate enough to have met the great girl Aneesa who created the Rise of Bangtan documentaries back in Vegas when we attended the PTS concerts. We spent all afternoon talking about her work and she is extremely passionate ans talented. She is a film editor by trade and she put her ❤️ and soul into all her documentaries. A TRUE BTS ARMY 💜

Rise of Bangtan edit is amazing. Made me feel all sort of ways but mainly love for our boys. They are genuine and that is hard to find these days. I’m so glad you liked it. Proud ARMY for life here. Shout out to you guys! Your reaction videos make me feel like I am with my like minded friends fan-girling/boying and it’s so much fun! More power!

Proof RM is a gentleman & a scholar to listen to and follow in example. In the heat, he said if that's how you feel, feel that way. Fire difus ed and he is the only Man standing. Well, besides Suga and everyone present that wanted to smack that mouth upside the head.

This series is fantastic! You’re going to love it more with each episode. Love you guys

all i can say is THANK YOU TO THE ORIGINAL ARMIES WHO WERE THERE FROM START. Thank you for being there for the boys when they needed you or us the most. You are the reason why they are who they are today ,without you things could have turned out different. THANK YOU TO BTS FOR YOUR DETERMINATION,PERSEVERANCE, PATIENCE..DETERMINATION AND HARD WORK. THANK YOU WATCHAFAM FOR THE REACTION 💜💜💜💜

Always with you guys! 💜💜💜💜

I love it...not to skip a bit... all the genuine reaction .. i appreciate you all... I must also admit that some of the clip that were explained was new to me.. like the meaning of N.O... I did'nt know.. it holds deep meaning.. by the way.. you're asking about the last clips.. you can try watching rookie king... you will see bangtan playing games from their early days... it will be fun.. just like bangtan gayo and Run BTS... 💜💜💜 I can't wait for chapter 4

Been so looking forward to this 💜

I LOVE THIS DOCUMENTARY SO MUCH. AND U GUYS REACTING TO IT IS EVEN BETTER. PLS REACT MORE😭

I'm so proud of BTS.. I have been a fan since the beginning. I'm 52 year old mother of 2 girls. Myself and my youngest daughter 17, are ARMY. 💜👍

Loving watching this series with you guys!! Can’t wait for the next reaction! Love you FAM!

"Jealousy and envy live in the same spring"!!!! That was a gem of knowledge right there! Couldn't stop thinking about that saying the whole time I finished watching the rest of the video. Nico, @23:20 you better speak on it!!! People that speak on how Hip Hop is "suppose" to be don't know it's history and the roots of the genre.

BTS literally inspires everyone so much and I've never been more proud. The way they bring people together and write songs based on their true feelings and effort, is the reason I got N.O lyrics tattooed on me. I got "Don't be trapped in someone else's dream" over my heart. No regrets. I'm forever gonna be grateful for them and I hope they will always continue to shine and bring more people together

Really appreciate this reaction - reminds me of my first time watching through it and the crazy emotions and ups and downs that happen. It’s so good and I appreciate you sharing with us.

You guys make me so happy. You tell the whole story with such thoughtfulness and joy. Love your mov8n' and growing.

"Jealous and envy live in the same spring." Preach!

Yayy im excited for this one!

I AM LOVING this series!! and learning a lot about our guys! love them even more.

I've already watched this episode. But watching you guys react was even more enjoyable !!!!

I’m loving watching this documentary with you guys. 💜

Yall! Once again, I love watching yall reacting to ANYTHING BTS related...it's always fun to rewatch things I may have already seen with you guys because it truly feels like I have ARMY friends. I agree with you Nico, it gives me goosebumps too because you can FEEL the genuine emotions that were coming from the guys. Blaze, droppin that quote, "jealousy and envy live in the same spring"...bruh...sounding much like a masterful lyric our guys would have said off the cuff! And very true! AJJ, I had the same flashback as you about you wanting to find that Bangtan Burger lol and also how upset you got at that clip with BF...and just checking out for a second and missing the next few words in the interview that you needed to rewind...same bro, same. Felt that. RM and Suga held it down in that interview, and we gotta remember how young they were at this time! The stats in the video are true, the pressures on the youth are so high in Korea...I used to always say that if I had gone to school in Korea, I definitely would have been part of those statistics, because I am nowhere near the level that society deems to be appropriate. I was so happy to know BTS recognized this problem and also the issue of mental health not being a "real thing"...even as a 1st generation Korean American, when I was diagnosed with MDD and Anxiety...and told some of my family, they reacted as if that is a Western notion and an excuse for not performing at a high level...which only deepened the dark place I live in. I was at one of my lows when BTS came on the scene...as corny as it is...their music somewhat helps me and may have saved me a time or two from just removing myself so as not to feel like a disappointment or burden to the world. Years later, even to this day...I have dark and bad days, and I'll have full blown crying sessions while blasting some BTS and really listening to the lyrics. I'm a work in progress...I think we all are...you never know what is going on in someone's mind or in their hearts, what storms they are trying to navigate through...so I try to be a kinder person as the years have gone by. I truly feel that Bangtan play a key role in that new mindset. I commend these 7 men for breaking barriers, being a voice for so many, and spreading awareness of issues that too many want to pretend isn't there. All while going through so much within themselves and their team, yet putting ARMY first and always thinking of us and thanking us. They've changed in the best ways, like believing more in themselves or being less shy and embracing their strengths...and they have NOT changed in the best ways, by always being humble and grateful kings and always working hard for what they love...their music, their label, ARMY, their families, and one another. Big thanks to you three for sharing another video with us. I appreciate yalls commentary and thoughts on whatever is the topic for the video. I love that you give appreciation back to the creators of any documentary or compilations or shoot even tik toks! Yall always say such nice things about the time and dedication that someone else put in to create something. Yall are also much appreciated and applauded for your time and efforts! Hope yall have a nice day. And to everyone who took the time to read this novel (sorry)...Stay Gold. L💜

Just wanted to drop by and say, I love your reactions! I hope you keep reacting to this series :)

As per usual, a great reaction! I’m happy to be following this docuseries alongside you guys because you have the best perspectives. It feels surreal watching their struggle and moments of doubt, knowing exactly where they are today. The amount of pride I feel is immeasurable. Chapter 4, let’s goooo!!👏🏼

Thanks Guys, for continuing this Awesome Series. 💜

Great reaction. I was waiting for it. Made me cry a little bit... but oh well... that's the purple wave..

YES🤩I was so sad and than i saw your video💜Thank you! You're my favourite trio

Love hearing your thoughts and watching your reaction

Looking back now on their old clips, especially when they were so emotional reading their messages to Army.... I think their love for Army has a lot to do with the fact that they faced so much criticism in their first years. BTS were just teens! I mean, JK was only 15! And seeing their excitement about debuting, they surely read up on comments online and saw everything being said about them (in a more recent video, Jin talks about reading comments before that go, "what did your father do when he was young? He was in BTS." and everyone else in the comments would laugh). So considering their position: so young, so eager to sing and perform, but getting a lot of negativity even though as RM said, "my name is not yet worth much." Then they have this still small but passionate group of fans who fiercely supported them. When everyone else was hating and laughing at them, 2013 Armys showed them love. It's only natural for BTS to be grateful to and love their fans so much that they included us in every step of their journey. It seems to me that BTS and Army enveloped each other in a bubble to protect ourselves from the hate. Adversity truly makes strong and lasting bonds, and now here we are. Welcoming more new Armys every day. 💜

Love it! Waiting for the next episode!
