the fact that other fandoms, media, the companies infact all of the korean industry along with the whole world tried to sabotage bts and bring them down as if they were all dying to stop bts from growing says a lot about how hard it must have been for the boys to handle and i have huge respect for bts . they have come so far . :(
We humans are like crabs. When stuck in a box with others, instead of climbing up together, we pull down the ones who actually are trying, with or without help, to get out 😔
Even if there comes a day when I don’t listen to their music as often, I will always be proud of these men and will support them. They’re the type of people you want to see succeed. I’m not embarrassed about them.
Well... I'm in that day. 😂 I'm not that updated anymore with their shows and doesn't listen to them that much like before but I'm still grateful for them as a fan and I still support them. I will even protect them if I have to. My "fan energy" wasn't just the same like in the earlier years, it just became more chill. It's not that scary guys, it kind of happens with some older fans (I don't intend to brag) of whatever band/group/artist. But the loyalty is still there lol
After all these struggle that BTS and ARMY faced people still say that BTS is just phase and that they will disappear like do they not realize that BTS old songs still break records and that spring day is always our queen. Stan a group that stans you back. Period.
The kmedia constantly downplayed BTS's achievements(and continues that even now), but they were monster rookies and even won many rookie awards. They were outselling Big 3 since 2015. And the way kpop stans changed their narrative from "no daesangs, no opinion" to "daesangs are not important" because BTS started sweeping them is just ridiculous! In a few years, the same situation is gonna repeat in western award shows and Western fans will become kpoppies pt.2. As soon as BTS start winning those awards, they will say awards have lost importance. I'm just waiting for that day.
The one where Army wouldn't leave because BTS hadn't performed, that was just amazing. Armys stayed there, for their boys, and they weren't ready to take any shit. This fandom isn't just a family, its a whole network of fans that love eachother and would go to great lengths to protect their people. And I'm proud.
"BTS doesn't have gp support." Honey, ARMYs ARE THE GENERAL PUBLIC. Just the fact that BTS can effortlessly sold out stadium tours while other Artists(who supposedly has gEnerAl pOoblic support) can't, much less fill up a venue of 700 seats.
That i💔 event was such an embarrassment 😂. Couldn't sell even 700 seats and then doing buy one get one free. "Gp FavOuriTe, BB hot 100 no.1, OrGanIc artists" they said. BTS has announced concerts and now we'll see who's the real deal.
@@simmi8464 I heart radio festival, several artists who have had no.1 'hits' like Olivia Rodrigo,24KGolden, Saweetie, The Kid Laroi, Addison Rae, these are just few names I remember. They had reduced the seats to 700 due to covid but still couldn't sell out. They were so desperate lmao, buy one get one free 😂. Funfact, BTS attended this same festival in 2019 and tickets sold out within 15 minutes and 90% of the audience was ARMY. Yet radio says BTS don't have demand in US so they won't play their songs.
@@joonieluv5918 all these artists are always seen in headlines, getting exposed. Lol. Doesn't matter. they're just scared that they will upset their pure blood American artists and xenophobic people there. Hence they don't even bother if armys requests a song. I dont think people from other fandom there even shows such enthusiasm.
Whatever everyone will say, I will never leave this family. Whatever people will do, I will never leave this family. Even if the world will be against BTS, I am pretty sure we are always be with them. BTS and ARMYS aren't just an idol and fans, we are family. I love this family no matter what. I'M ALWAAAYS PROUD
Ok listen, If my family if the world hates me for being an ARMY and liking BTS, I DONT CARE, BECOMING AN ARMY HAS BEEN THE BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE, TRUST ME
I don't understand why Korean public is sleeping on the issue with their baised media. I mean these boys are your national treasure. You guys have no idea how much respect and attention are pulled into your country because of them. You Koreans out of everyone should be most proud and protective of them. Stand with them. It's so absurd to think about it all. But I am glad whatever stones the world is throwing at them they are building castles out of them.
The way BTS and ARMY is hated by in Korea ,Other parts of Asia, In most counties and US kinda makes me question most those adults are literally problematic . Like bro what is wrong with those humans with brain?
@@juanchoresultay2704 it's not only SK Armys..the whole fandom needs to stop being so sensitive, and I've been Army since 2013!..BTS are all about love and acceptance, not cancelling people because they got butthurt..do you honestly think BTS wants our fandom being like that?
I'm new ARMY after my students kept talking about BTS, and guess what, as a teacher, I will be sharing my passion of BTS with my students, and maybe some will turn ARMY with me :D
I'm a fairly new ARMY member I've only listened to BTS consistently for a few months, and getting to know things about them has been a blessing and a curse. It pains me so much that these guys have had to go through so much and I cant wait to contribute to the love and support that ARMY brings their way.
I can't! This is too heartbreaking! Really, BTS had taught me that I don't fucking need approval from anyone.. And BTS DOESN'T NEED ANYONE EITHER. BTS & ARMY TOGETHER FOREVER!
AND LASTLY, it's gross how some people left the fandom bc of bts giving a speech at the UN and receiving diplomatic passports from SK govt, saying that "bts has become so political". EXCUSE ME??? HAVE YOU LISTENED TO THEIR DEBUT SONGS??? BTS HAS ALWAYS BEEN POLITICAL FROM THE START. DON'T @ ME. Y'all overlook the fact that BTS has been political even in their songs and it shows.
@K in their debut albums they criticized the korean government, korean education system and work culture which was partly why they got blacklisted by the korean media Most notably in: N.O, spine breaker, and no more dream
Yeah we buy music and that helps the artist unlike streaming platforms which pay dust. What about the streaming farms in glendive? Radio payola? Spotify deals? Bundling albums?Who is the real manipulator here? BTS are the most organic artists who have sales, streams AND can sell out concerts on any place on earth. Period.
@@joonieluv5918 Umm I have a question, I might be wrong and I would not like to start any kind of fanwars or any kind of awkwardness between the artists but, we were called out as chart manipulators by ig Olivia's fandom(seriously no hate to Olivia) becoz we were constantly security the no 1 rank on BB hot 100 charts through different songs and also butter having 10 #1s Umm Good 4 u was securing #2 for how long in the charts How come they r not being called out as Chart manipulators while securing #2 for long yet the #1 song which is actually an asian artist is being called out for that like wth
@@SWASTIKAAA Exactly, all other songs were shifting up and down every week but her song was stuck to 2nd position. Also have you seen her radio points?More than half of her points are from radio. If you subtract her radio points, that song would go down 20 ranks on the chart. And the amount of playlisting she got on spotify! She was everywhere, ads, all types of playlists , "discovery mode" playlists! I had her blocked still I used to get her songs in recommendation. Her label is very shady.
@@joonieluv5918 exactly ... well said .. have u heard her live ? My gawd she sounds awful without autotune... I don't remember the show name where she performed but literally the comments were so negative about Olivia saying that she sounds like a dying cow singing live, someone give her autotune so that our ears don't bleed ... lmao the comments were too funny .... but seriously no hate towards her though but her company, is another story... no comments... 🤦♀️
And this is exactly why Army are so damn protective. Our boys have overcome so much hate for no reason. I hate that they got so excited over a Grammy….. honestly they are so much better than these stupid meaningless trophies.
6* songs on BBHOT100. Coldplay x BTS' My Universe went #1 last night! The only artist in this decade to get 6 #1s on BBHOT100. And I'm telling y'all, the next time BTS releases a single, we'll gatekeep that #1 for weeks again.
Them: harasses, mistreats, mocks, fake rumors, racism Also them: "BtS ARmYs Are CraZY, AnD ovERprOTECtiVE" If standing up for the hardworking ppl that helped u through your hard times and are getting treated bad for no reason is "crazy" and "overprotective" *THAN A.R.M.Ys WILL ALWAYS BE OVERPROTECTIVE!!*
@maryamasomewhathuman.7870 Seriously like we won't just sit and cry saying " don't hate our idols please 😢 " while u harass our idols . Our fandom is known for never accepting false rumors and hate about our idols . BTS & ARMY are not just a relation of group and fandom but a real family 💜
We all know the industry needs interactions from this massive fandom. If I were them, I'd treat BTS with the utmost respect -- should really learn from Scammys and Williamboard.
Wth ! I didn't know even after so many years I would be still so emotional about all the hardships they faced , even tho it's not mine in actual...thank you so much for this video.
I'm so done western industries and korean industries.I remember Bts got dynamite nomination Grammy.and I was so happy they got Grammy nomination. I was waiting to bts performances . They are saying bts coming next. I was so stressful. They got last performances. We know ARMY waiting to BTS performance and i cry is hurt to me . (sorry english is not my first language, 🥲)
But Black Swan being not nominated for the song of the year disappointed me The song had emotions, art, music everything and the most the members did it all themselves.... For me, Bts deserve the Grammys but Dynamite as a song, FOR THE Records it does but u know they have better self made songs than dynamite.......Dynamite was made by others form the company but songs form the map of the soul 7 were rather there own creations, their won stories and the most beautiful ones too
As a baby ARMY and an older white woman, I’ll say this. These boys are beautiful. They are so talented, yet so humble. They have earned everything they’ve gotten, despite others being jealous of their success. They’ve worked long and hard for their success. Yes, I am a new baby ARMY, but I am looking forward to many more years of their wonderful music. Their music is healing. I have severe arthritis, and I hurt a lot (and cry a lot). Their music helps me feel better. And I know many, many, many more ARMY say the same. Their music brings a special energy. BTS, this ARMY loves you always!
The unecessary hate they get is not enough for them to be taken down and is not that bothersome for them (Hopefully by now it not bothersome to them ) because they achieved a lot because of their hardwork and determination. Also they have million fans and armies that is are powerful than the haters they get
I am very happy that you're back again. We have to go against when things go out of hands and the quote I want to say that NO MATTER HOW GOOD YOU ARE, PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS JUDGE YOU. Now I don't care bcz haters can't stop BTS from climbing success.
Zach is an amazing interviewer. He has spoken to BTS many times over the years and asked great questions. Pls don't make him look bad by showing that one clip of him asking about a collaboration.
Yeah, this^ Zach has been the one interviewer who actually does his research and asks actual proper questions to them consistently from the first interviewer he's had with them compared to the kind of questions the other interviewers were asking then
Although I became a fan during the Dynamite era, (I wish I became a fan earlier) I will support BTS till the end. And it really hurts my heart to see how people were treating BTS. ARMY & BTS FOREVER!💜
These were some excellent parallels made. I didn’t even realize how closely in synch not HYYH we’re until you stacked them next to each other one after the other. Thank you for this video, it helps makes things clear.
and people ask us why we're so overprotective of them? Because we know what they've gone through, and we've gone through it too, we know immediately when somethings a red flag and want to keep our boys away from it because we don't want them to go through the same bullshit again.
the whole kpop industry got jungsh👀k when bts blowing up in u.s. and to those people who discriminate them and telling them that will never be famous. this is what your karma. bts is now the hottest and biggest boyband on the planet. #btspop
The kpop industry has minimal chances to pull them down because BTS conquered the entire planet ! So the Kpop industry ate their words and regretted what they said ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
There is a lot of misinformation and misinterpretation of Zach’s Butter interview going on. In all fairness Zach Sang has recognized BTS since their first breakout into the US market in 2017. He did so much research on them, even back then, as evidence by his well thought out interviews since 2017 and on. He was probably one of the only interviewers in 2017 and 2018 to give them meaningful, thoughtful, creative questions about their artistry and humanity and treat them with the respect they deserve as people and as artists. He even gives them his full attention even when they speak in Korean, one of the only English speaking interviewers to ever do so. Even to this day he still does the same and still outshines nearly all the western interviewers. Please, before bashing him or getting onto him over this one collab question, think and watch his history with BTS and compare his interviews all these years previously with interviews from other main media entities, especially when BTS was first breaking into the US in 2017/2018. Zach treats BTS with the utmost respect and care, professionally and personally, and it can be seen in all interviews he has done with them and the questions and statements he has said to them. It would be good to not forget their history of friendship in light of one question, as well as not putting Zach in the category of basic western reporter reporting on BTS, because he is far from it.
Sometimes I think armys do act on impulse and jump into conclusions, if we get into arguments, blacklisting every one even who supports BTS, it could be a problem for them and us...
The Bieber collab thing had been headlining news articles at the time so it was a fair question. Basically if he didn't ask it he wouldn't be doing his job properly. Poor Zach. I haven't been watching any of the recent interviews but he seems like a nice, genuine kind of guy.
I agree. I am from the US and anything that challenges our world standing has to be trashed. To tell you the truth, I hadn't watched the Grammy's in on 10-15 yrs until I heard BTS was nominated. Like all things The Grammy's thought they were the deciding factor in the music industry. But those votes were bought by record companies just like the big three in South Korea. Like most things, everything starts out good until the corporate dollar gets a hold of it and then it rapidly goes down hill.
Such a succinct and informative video! I don't know why non-American artists have to work so hard to get their feet in the door. BTS sell out stadiums around the world, do heavy promotions (ie: Butter. One song) and they are questioned by American artists, industry insiders and the like. They blew up and gained a wider audience with Dynamite and all of those nay sayers wanted to be their best friend. Billboard had the nerve to ask about manipulating sales in an issue that featured BTS and did side sales to make money for the magazine with pics from the photo shoot. BTS have learned from their early hardships so they work harder and it shows. They've done so with grace.
If you're on something good people might hate you but haters are just haters who would just hate you... but there is no challenge without them 2 and what is life without a challenge so to armies no matter what bts is the best boy band in the world 💜 ..
Tan cierto lo que dices enserio es increíble hasta donde llega la xenofobia enserio y no solo en EEUU si no también el latinoamerica :/ y ahora con lo que ha pasado en la venta de tickets para los conciertos todos los aprovechados que los están vendiendo a precios exagerados es triste en verdad, pero aquí estará ARMY para apoyarlos 💜
Breaks my heart that antis can't feel what we feel. 7 boys who are very talented and has the kindest hearts. It's alright, we'll keep them. fvck the haters. lol. BTS X ARMY FOREVER.
Even now, we are still getting mistreatment, if not blatant hate. We could easily outstream everyone then spotify goes on and filters out at least 45% of our streams while other artists get lile 8% And that fucking sucks omg
That's why I love Indian interview with Sakshama.. She only asked BTS about their career, songs 💜💜💜This is called respect 💜💜💜And I just know whenever haters will spread negative propaganda BTS will spread more and more positively 💜💜
haters doesnt know how grateful we are for BTS Members ... They are Our happy pills... our inspiration and our source of motivation. so never question how much we are willing to give for them... haters gonna hate but Army will support them. thanks to this video. 💜
You make the best videos. You go gurll!! I love how you show the relationship between BTS and ARMY, of how both are protective to each other, FOR A REASON. Have a great day y'all 🌹🌿💜
It's perfectly fine to have a opinion of your own, but ridiculing someone based on that is absurd. BTS is one of the most hardworking and dedicated artist in the music industry and that's the sole reason of the fame and power which they have now. Please accusing them with baseless, stupid judgments is gross. BTS and we ARMYS are NOT answerable to any of the idiotic and pointless questions raised by the haters, they mean nothing to us ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! BTS and ARMYS will continue to grow together always and always:') Kings will always be kings y'all.
5:07 Heartbreaking to see the Black Ocean but now BTS and ARMY has the Biggest and the Largest "PURPLE OCEAN" in the World KIM NAMJOON - 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 KIM SEOKJIN - 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 MIN YOONGI - 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 JUNG HOSEOK - 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 PARK JIMIN - 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 KIM TAEHYUNG - 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 JEON JUNGKOOK - 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 BTS - 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Our Bangtang boys worry so much about us. Even if they're slaying their performances and rehearsals, they still think they missed something and they worry that we (armys) would be disappointed in them...Seriously, they don't have to worry that much because no matter what, true ARMYs will ALWAYS be there with them. Bts is the best
We don't need many more awards especially the Grammys to just stick with them and plus they have lots of awards what else does the fandom need from them just great music and love thats all
I can't finish this video my heart hurts again... everything was so frustrating during that time and I'm glad you make the video to show nee ARMYS how hard was be an ARMY before. but sincerely I have so many scars about it .I can't finish. New ARMYS please appreciate BTS and ARMY work . respect our image because it was really hard and it's a challenge everyday. never get blind with the power might we have now .love 💜
Well... I must say very well done!!! I am looking forward to future videos. It is a profound mystery to me why our beloved BTS 7 and BigHits were so disrespected, lied about and attacked from the beginning. Why would a little insignificant boy group from a small poor company be considered such a terrible threat. Unless... maybe they had a magical or mystical foresight that BTS 7 would be unstoppable, claim billions of dollars/trillions of won and would soon rule the world.
"BTS is popular because of their fans" Why can't they understand these fans became their fans because of their MUSIC, SONG and their TALENT. 😏these people are those who can't reach at their level of success just talk between crowds so that no one will see their face..............😑😑😑
The fact that i was in half of all these when it happened takes me back to the memories how ARMYs were protecting the boys it really only us who protects the boys and its only the boys who protects us
