AMERICAN RAPPER REACTS TO-[ENG SUB] BTS American Hustle Life EP. 1 

I don't care what anybody says, that whole kidnapping 'prank' will never be justified in my book. It still makes me mad to think about it. No part of that was fun and games.

Poor 15-16yr old JK. I hate the kidnapping but there are later episodes that are just amazing. 😘💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🫰🏻

It would be fun if you reacted to all episodes. 😃 I felt so sorry for the boys when they were "kidnapped" especially jhope and jungkook. I thought it was really mean to scare them to the point where they probably thought they were going to die. 😢💜 They looked so scared. Jungkook was just a kid back then. Precious kookie. 🐰🥺 Considering how young they all were, I'm so impressed that they made it through those tough times.💜

At first I was really triggered due to a few reasons. BTS learned so much throughout this time and even about themselves. Your going to love watching this. Ty for reacting 😊

The kidnapping part was so bad, BangPD was very angry and I believe he actually called the CEO and had a few words , remember jks only about 15 Korean age at this time...and there were some who were not really kind to the boys.. Not really a great show for them but they did learn so much.. To this day Tony and Warren g are still very good friends with the boys.. The press is notified usually about their travels

I love this series. While you have to get past the first and second and maybe half of the third episodes because of the cringe factor the rest of the series is amazing and they really did learn a lot. Looking forward to your reaction.

They learned a lot it was a very important time for them and their art you can see direct connections from this to their next project especially on giving homage to where their impression comes from and respecting the culture. That all said American Hustle life is fucking CAMP I know a lot of people hate it cuz it has cringe parts but omfg if it ain't fun😂

Suga - AgustD " I want to watch basketball" Now he is an ambassador of NBA as NBA offered it to him 😢 I am not crying, it is you 😭

I believe that the only positive result of being kidnapped on that show and in that manner was that it gave all of the members a heightened sense of awareness for themselves, each other, other people around them, and their surroundings whenever they traveled, toured around the world or were out in public. They knew what being kidnapped in a foreign country and fearing for your life felt like. There was an instance on the show where Jimin was talking to RM in Korean about someone who was driving them to another location while the cameras were rolling. Jimin was wondering if they could physically overtake the driver if the driver decided to kidnap them. They decided that they would be able to overpower the driver. LOL Or at the very least, the kidnapping prank taught them to always keep your vehicle doors locked whether you're inside the vehicle or not.

What they learned during this show they still use today. While this show seems cringey in the beginning because the guys were so young and inexperienced, this show gave them the edge. I get why they did the cringey. Life is not always pleasant. It can be downright shtty. But beauty can grow from manure. Look at all the great music BTS put out because of all the sht they went through. There are a lot of KRappers that think they are better than BTS but they don’t have this experience by learning the roots of Hip Hop, Rap and R&B. BTS get it. Thank you Bang PD for allowing the guy to learn. Thanks for reacting to this show. Once you get past episode 2 it gets way better.

AHL has its pros and cons but overall I think the experience did help them grow a lot musically and as people. There are some iconic BTS moments too. I do think Tony is a good dude, and nate is decent, but that other mf'er can go to Hawaii if you know what I mean

That kidnapping prank i haaaaate it JK was a baby

Yeah the kidnapping was ouy of line (my opinion). RM told Bang PD to never put them in that situation ever again. They did learn alot during this time which reflects on their growth as artists. The way Jin and Tea were treated was out of line too. They were so young then, they were so scared, especially the younger ones. I didnt like the first few episodes

omg you're reacting to BTS American Hustle life?? That's great!! It has some cringe moments here and there but overall it's good! This ended up being a meaningful experience for the guys, they learned a lot not only artistically but also a lot of life lessons. It's always fun and amazing to watch BTS in the early days 💜😂They definitely have grown a lot as artists and as human beings. BTS worked really hard to be where they are now. I hope you can react to all the episodes and hopefully you don't get copyright problems or something!

YES, YES, YES, I am so happy you are reacting to this. Some people did not like how Koolio handles the boys He was like that "mean teacher" we had in elementary school. He had a hard exterior but on the inside all they wanted was to see you do well. Please watch all of the chapters and see how much the boys learned while they were here 🤣🤣🥰🥰

The 1st few episodes are problematic... the stereotypes of black folks doing the kidnapping ... and the treatment of Bangtan .. BUT .. once you get into episode 3 and on ... the members learn and grow so much ...and also they form long term relationships with some of the crew from Hustle Life ... ill watch with you Tre .. 🌌🎵🖤

Overall they learnt so much through this series, met some amazing people who broadened their minds, and have carried the positive things they learnt with them to this day.... Fun Fact - while filming this they were also making their album. Once filming finished for the day they would have to go to their studio (in a rented garage) to record all night. They were phsically and mentally exhausted by the end of the 2 weeks.

Yes yes you react to american hustle 👍👍👍❤️

The boys were so young I really felt bad for them on the kidnapping part but they have come a long way and everything they been through made them a real family they all are like brothers and what I love about them all that they are always so humble and always thanking army around the world but they work so hard that they deserve the world I’m so proud how far they come and I can say how proud I am of being an army from the very beginning when no one knew who BTS was love them so much god bless them always 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜OTS7 also god bless you and love your reactions can you react to Perfect man by BTS thank you 🙏🏼 for your love for our boys is amazing to see 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Now you will see for yourself and think for yourself. So many try to erase the complete experience BTS had in LA. It helped to shape the foundation for them to grow on. YES, The 1st day was chaotic but initiated and approved by their managers. It was to break all stereotypes they came to America with about the people Bang PD sent to teach them. They found all those stereotypes about Blacks to be lies.

Have you ever heard of "sasaengs?" They know every move that their idols make. So it wouldn't be difficult to know when they are departing or leaving. Also, sometimes staff will leak the info. Maybe sometimes even the company might to get the coverage out there when new albums are about to drop. There are alot of ways fans find out when their idols will be at the airports. ❤

This is my favorite of all the BTS reality shows

Thank you for not putting this on patreon! I literally love you for this so much!❤️❤️

I cried for the tannies when this was first released at how frightened Jeongguk was especially and I still do to this day. Its will never be justified for me

you'll love it! and Hobi's really funny yes hehe

I dislike the kidnapping part. People could have gotten hurt.

Thanks, Tre for another Early Christmas Present. You're the Best! 💜💜💜

In my opinion, this BTS show stands out as their best work. While some may label it as cringy or criticize the treatment they received, I genuinely appreciate it because it feels authentic. The show's focus on exploring different cultures, especially the influence of HIP HOP, is a significant reason why it resonates with me and why their journey in America feels so captivating. This particular show holds a special place in my heart as it showcases their dedication to understanding diverse cultures, making it the best BTS show for me.

when Jiminie mentions Kookie told him the air was different I'll point out something I didn't know until I became ARMY! the air in SK is seriously contaminated? not sure how to say it. The winds bring fine dust from factories, reason you'll find tons of people wearing masks, faaaar before covid existed. They use it also to prevent catching illnesses but they have that fine dust problem. In news reports besides the weather they also report how the fine dust is gonna be during the day

The kidnapping prank was SO UPSETTING. poor jungkook looked like he was about to cry.

I can't wait for you to do episode 2 💜

Jhhhoppppppeeeeeee, lol Can't wait til you get to see the episode where he shows his beast freestyle mode. It is one of my favorite parts of this series, hands down!!!💜

Omg yessssss🎉🎉🎉🎉

Yes American hustle life is bomb! I love seeing their personalities. I'm Hella mad you was laughing Hella hard, cause I was too! 😂😂😂 their facial expressions and reactions was Hella funny! They was wrong doing that to them, but honestly I thought JK was going to kick ass because he was already trained, that's why he was making the most fuss, and if you noticed Jimin switched with Suga because he's also a trained fighter and if need be would protect JK and his brothers both of them would

i wanted for long time to start to watch this series, but didnt find time. so, i will watch all the series with you guys. thank you

The first couple of episodes are a bit sensitive for most ARMY because these kids were genuinely fearful and somewhat bullied plus the stereotypes were blatantly obvious….it does get better after awhile but mannnn I wanted to backhand a few people behind that crap at the beginning….Keep watching, they definitely learn from their experience 💕💖💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💖💕

Thank you for reacting. I hope you will react to the series. The first few episodes are a little rough to get through but once you do it's great going forward. Will this be a weekly reaction? Will it be on Patreon or YT? I also noticed some things that happened that I didn't before so its always good to rewatch the episodes.

OK, so cool that you're doing this! I've been wanting to watch it, but haven't yet, so this is new to me, and past time for me to see it. I'm excited to get to watch it with you Tre!😀💜Can't wait for more!!!

ohhh they were small there .... who knows what fear they had ... poor things .. but after that it was a good experience for them...started with a trauma...but after all good. how nice to see them so little again 😊😊😊💜🌈

AHL is still meaningful. They were working on their 1st LP, Dark & Wild, during this filming, so it was an exhausting time.

Yessssssssssss tytytyty

Bu serinin 6.bölümünde "oh happy day"şarkısının sahne performansını mutlaka dinlemelisin.Jk,Suga,V birlikte söylüyorlar,çok harika bir şarkı.

My pocket full of sunshine!!! He's a ball of energy ☺️🌞 🥰 I wasn't sure if you had seen it... Hobi's (J-hope) facial reactions are a blast hahahahahaha😅😅 thank you for reacting. I really enjoyed watching AHL, I FREAKED out just like them 😅😅, but I'm glad they were able to meet Coolio and other people, and have the experience that they went through at the time. don't want to spoil it for you. ✨️¹⁰💜⁸✨️

Thank you for doing this Tre. This really helped the guys learn about hip hop and rap. As so many have said, i do think they could have done better than the kidnapping, these young guys are from another country and so young. JK although saying 15, thats in Korean age....really he is only 13....all the guys wete so young and as this goes on you'll see some of these guys constantly disrespected and were very unprofessional to the guys. Warren G had to step in cause it got so heated. It was a mess!! I truly think that a few of the guys were jealous of these young boys in their ability to do what they did, like writing and producing and such. All the guys are in their 20's unlike the boys. Anyway, I've seen the whole thing but would like to see how you see it and what you think of it and the way they are treated by all the guys. Than you Tre.👍👍👍👍👍

I´ll be waiting the next episode....gonna re-watch with you!

NO,NO,NO you can't SEE this without Lamar 😢 , he gonna LOVE IT

8:08 I always ask myself the same question haha

i rlly love ur reaction ahha, actually i find this vid if u have reaction in american hustle life and u have it already, so i watch it and its so funny that u react it hah

This was in 2014, when they were all still really young. I think JK was 16? Just beginning their career, learning lots, working hard, living in a very small apartment, sharing one bedroom… Worried about their future as a group, being harassed by other fandoms, looked down on by other groups, And although in their book that just came out, Beyond The Story (a record of their last 10yrs) , they say it was an amazing and fun experience, and knowing it was an MNET variety show, this scene… this first episode, the kidnapping scene, not knowing any English (minus RM), just broke my heart. I’m older Army and a mom, and I just wanted to jump through the screen and scold those guys for scaring those kids like that! I was pretty mad. But once I put it into perspective, nah… still makes me grumpy. 🤷🏻‍♀️💜

I knew you were going to go find this!!!!!!

👏 Thanks Tre! Wish Lamar Was Here! Ep#1's Funny & Sad! It Gets Better! My Understanding Is, RM & Suga Were So Upset, & Called Bang PD. Many Were Fired In The 1st 3 Eps! (Probably) RM & Suga, As Hyungs From..Underground.. Very Concerned For Maknaes, Especially JK Being 14-Intl Age! They Will Learn So Much About Black Folk Communities & Form Friendships. Like RM & Warren G. 💜 Hope Lamar Can Join Us Soon. *Watching from New⚘️Jersey, USA 😎

I’m a late bloomer army and was cringing watching the first episode. The kidnapping thing situation was scary and can be traumatizing to anyone. Imagine going to another country and people kidnapping you. Another thing is they had Black men do it, which triggers a bad stereotype. I didn’t want to keep watching after that but part of me is curious, especially since Coolio was in it. (I’m a 90’s kid).

8:00 airport staff sells their flight information for money the obsessive fans are willing to pay for it. We call them saesangs.

for those who said that its bad prank, yeah its a bad prank but its still funny, lol bts themselves said its scary but after they watch the film they said its funny

14:08 the kidnapping prank was absolutely out of line ☹. I feel bad for everyone involved, bts, and the crew who executed it. The show producers who did this looks desperate, like they needed to pull cheap tricks to have an audience. It's just icky.

Lo siento tengo días de no ver tus videos pero Hoy me toca maratón de tus vídeos de BTS 💜💜😉 sinceramente este vídeo me trajo emociones revueltas por un lado me hizo reír 😅pero por el otro me dolió el corazón al ver los rostros de los chicos 😢 En mi mente me preguntaba si lágrima era de risa o de dolor😢 Pero lo que si no pude evitar fue contagiarse tu risa y emoción en el momento de la broma 😂 me encanto👍💜

14:35 I don't like it so much. look at JK he was so scared, poor kid… they were so excited and happy to come to america and this is happening… i can’t imagine how they felt at that moment . poor boys. it's cruel

I initially thought the kidnapping was unnecessary and didn't like the stereotype. However, I came to the conclusion that there was a very important lesson in this. Yes they were young, but to work in this industry and travel all around the world they need to know right away to always be aware of your surroundings. Seeing the idols they have become I'm certain that the experience stayed with them because people can literally come out of nowhere and try to do harm. I rather they learn that lesson in an controlled environment than from a real life experience.

I like 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Poor BTS they 'r youngs and funny ❤❤

Joon looking all cool and relaxed at the fake kidnapping cause he knew it was fake pfffffffttt lol

Man I was so mad Suga should have cited this kidnapping as an Amygdala trauma memory. . I just thought thanks ya'll.. now you know if your mom's or grandma's caught you treating a guest this way it would by mortal kombat slipper addition on your punk @. I was embarrassed for the whole of America but it was better & them going to Skid Row giving back but that one dude w/ Suga & Jin.... Suga is the Man! ... you'll see. ;) Remember to give respect to Suga and Jimin and I think JK (though a baby) who held back. Easily could have beat the daylights out of them all w/ their skills. Suga more cuz he can thug.. remember zombie day. He had the dukes up.

World renown doesn’t just come out anywhere. They really did had to hustle even in america lol not just south korea during their younger days

💜💜💜

AHL is a bit cringy (certain scenes & episodes) and disliked the kidnapping part for sure BUT the experience shaped them into who they are today. These experiences were definitely valuable for our guys. 😭💜

The reason they said JK could be guide is bc he had come to America to take dance lessons once so it wasn't his first time

I’m glad this show helped them learn and develop musically, but I hate that kidnapping part. They still really young (Jungkook was like 15! Like he was literally crying), they were alone in a foreign country for the 1st time and also they didn’t speak any English at the time. I don’t find it funny at all, just feel bad for them 🙁

I hated the kidnap section. JK was so young I think 15/16 so imagine if u had been kidnapped at that age and where u couldn't even speak English let alone understand what they were saying. People make fun of the fact that he was tearing up but that's just wrong on so many levels. .. sigh..

Jk might have taken off running while being kidnapped and no one would have caught him, in a different country hardly able to speak the language. It could have been dangerous. It really points out the difference in cultures and l don’t think Bighit was aware of the extent when they said they would kidnap the guys.

You need to do the rest.. cringy first 2 episodes but the rest i like.. this is part of their history.. this is where they learn the history of hip hop and they did get some great advices and in which they still practice those advices in their life and their career.. the part with Iris I love the most..

I'm soooo glad your watching this rven though I wanted to run in and save them. JK had previously been the US for almost a year to get better at dancing. You are gonna luv and crack uo at Jimins luv for Tonaaaaay 🤣 Til this day he still luvs him some Tony. There's videos of him and Tony interactions and meeting back up after American Hustle. You'll like those too!!!

This is why Bighit does their own variety shows now, Those poor boys were scared to death. They kidnapped underage, kids JK was only 16 there. I do not know what Mnet was thinking, but half the show is cringy, and some of it was ok.

This show was hard to watch sometimes. But it did help the boys. The kidnapping joke was in very poor taste.

Oh lord!! Brace yourself for this. Some parts are really hard to watch and other parts are hysterical, heartbreaking and amazing. You get it all

A meia do jk 🤣💜

Trey do you want to get your crew to start bowing when you come in?... must be nice lol

I absolutely hate that prank they played on them. I left the show after that episode and took like a year to give it a chance again. That's only bc I watched all the bon voyages, in the soop etc. These dudes weren't that good to them.

The kidnapping thing...awful. I also do not understand how these black men were willing to play out the worst stereotypes that exist about them. Cruel.Stupid Racist.

they know they're gonna be ay airports more recently cause airport employees/their own crew sells that info to sasaengs -_- some of those people have even shared the same flights, it's ridiculous. Probably not the case in those days though! they weren't as popular

Burada hepsine üzülmüştüm.Kaçırıldığını zannetmişlerdi,diğer üyeler şaka olduğunu biliyordu ama baby JK bilmiyordu ve çok korkmuştu.

As always, thank you for your great videos! I stumbled upon some great, funny, and deep interviews/content from the You Quiz show with the boys. First episode: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Zooz3D6412M.html I loved to hear Suga talk so honestly and deeply about his fear of being so successful, and becoming so big (this is during the DNA 2017 BBMA's era). His interview together with Jin, is the 3rd or 4th video I believe.

I've not seen this stuff, but I heard that there was some unpleasantness and the boys were glad when it was over.

Plse Plse can you watch more????

When I first watched this, I just thought the prank was too much. They scared the ish out of them poor babies. But it's a part of their journey, and looking at it again, it is pretty funny, but that prank still pissed me off.

Can someone plz tell me whats the brand of the black shirt JK is wearing. I see it everywhere.

I just felt real bad for them when they got kidnapped. You could see they were $h!tting in their pants.

This was the worse episode their company was sooo mean!! I don’t blame the “actors” played to kidnappers.. I blame the BTS company who thought was going be funny!! It wasn’t !! The rest of the episodes were fun to watch. Coolie was pretty tough on them but… he was being truthful!!

Hated this episode. These guys were so young and didn't understand English that well. Later on in the episodes, Dante hits Jin disrespectfully with a stuffed animal (I think he got fired). UGH

I never liked this first part

The way they reeated BTS, who ever these so called teachers were should have been ashamed because they shamed the USA

First episode is the worst. It does get better later on.

They really was playing games with their life and i didnt like that especially when there was a minor (jungkook) there...if bts was racist after this i would completely understand but our boys aren't like that they are good people 💜 Edit: lol yoongi really didnt give a f

I hate the prank. As an Asian, It made me feel sorry to black people. 😥 It can make a bad stereotype to black people. I hate the stereotype prank/joke. This show wasn't create by Bighit/BTS companies tho. 😅 that's why they pull a prank like this. (Sorry that my English is not good 😅)

oh boy. I will skip that one

This whole thing is trash, but I guess i hope you enjoy it at least lol
