BTS - The Truth Untold (Live Performance) REACTION 

Surprisingly, no one in the comments provided the origin of the song yet, so allow me. Truth untold is based on an Italian legend of 'La Cita di smeraldo' estimated to have happened in the 15th or 16th century. This is a story of a man who lived in a castle and kept to himself, while wearing a mask at all times, because he thought himself 'ugly'. He had a tragic upbringing and so he lived isolated and taking care of his beautiful garden as the only source of happiness. One day he saw a woman picking/stealing his flowers and though he was angry at first, he decided to observe her. He eventually found out that she was poor and selling those flowers to earn a living. Soon enough he fell in love with her, tried to keep his flowers in the best shape for her, and decided to create for her a beautiful unique flower (smeraldo, which means emerald - I always imagined it as a blue rose) which she could sell for a lot of money. Unfortunately, she stopped coming before he could finish the flower and he found out she died, before he ever had a chance to speak to her. Thus smeraldo signifies sincerity that could not be delivered or truth that could not be told. It's a great song on its own and makes sense metaphorically, but I think it makes it that more heartbreaking knowing the backstory, and especially of her death. Overall, the song is a great fit on this particular album focusing on the subject of loving yourself before loving others.

BTS has some beautiful songs and people tend to not give them a chance because they don't want to read translations or try other songs besides their title tracks, when their real gems are on their b-sides.

House of Cards have amazing lirycs too.

They really aren’t afraid to sing about an unhealthy mental state such as this in this song, and it’s very vulnerable and mature. I love these guys. They truly can do it all. Many people are introduced to them through the fun bubblegum hits without knowing their range; this is the kind of stuff from their discography that grabbed me. This and Louder than Bombs.

yes, bts' most popular songs are their light-hearted, bright and fun songs which i obviously love a lot, but they have an enormous depth to the rest of their songs that i wish more of the general public understood. Another song that i think you would enjoy is Outro: Tear. It is a similar song, written by Suga about the period in time when bts was thinking of disbanding, but this one is a rap song. Just so you can see their diversity

House of cards, Your eyes tell, 0 o'clock. a few to listen to

BTS really has so many different songs! They don’t stick to a certain genre

I used to think it was kinda crazy how other non-English speaking countries would have huge fan bases of English speaking artists. Now, with BTS, I totally get it. It’s so much more than understanding the actual words. They make you feel the emotion and the undertone of their music. Idk but I love them!

This song is about “La Citta di Smeraldo”. It becomes more meaningful when you understand what they are singing about. This song is about the Smeraldo flower grown for a woman by someone who felt he was too ugly to give it to her in person. This takes place in 16th century Italy. The woman was stealing the flowers in his GARDEN in order to survive. She was poor and sickly, she wears ragged clothing. The man growing the flowers lived as a recluse and all he had were his flowers. He was mad at first, but he observed her from a distance, and followed her into town (wearing a mask and cape) and realized her situation and wanted to help her. He started looking forward to her visits at night and fell in love with her, so he created a beautiful flower for her to sell at a higher price. But she never came back. It talks about sincere love towards someone, but never fully conveyed. He didn’t get a chance to let her know. By the time he finished creating the beautiful flower and was ready to give her, he found out she died. Army, please watch this for clear explanation of this song: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-75zZgI4DD4U.html RM wrote the lyrics (and wanted to do it justice) and Steve Aoki helped produce this song. The lyrics changed so many times because they wanted it to stay true to the story but also create something the fans can relate to. Also something the vocal line can sing to. This song is also very hard to sing actually, and the 4 of them did a great job making it sound so beautiful, sad, and full of yearning.

Trust me, ARMY is the one fandom that wants you to replay as much as possible We love those long videos lol You should try 'Your eyes tell' composed by youngest member Jungkook :)

Each time, this song gets me. In tears now. So does Butterfly. JK said if he could only ever sing one song for the rest of his life, he said it would be Butterfly.

Songs like this ( they have many like this) is why no one should reduce BTS to "boy band" status. They are truly unique and different than the rest.

They are great lyricists

Bts does songs in all genres, and that is one of the best reason why their fandom is so diverse. Rap, ballad, trap, lofi rnb, classical, Edm they do so many diff genres and they also all have solo works. They are also doing so many mixtapes and solo works even in their group albums.

Imaginary Blue Flower Name "Smeraldo" 💞 BTS is singing about an 'ugly' man who hid in an old castle alone. because of his looks he received lots of hate & cruelty while growing up 💞{my theory} the "Truth Untold" is about the fears everyone face. In this song, they talk about how they are scared to show their true selves and describe it as them having to wear a mask. {Persona} 💞

You haven’t seen hardly anything yet. I know you love lyrics I can’t wait for you to realize they write their own lyrics. RM has an IQ of 148. All of their songs have substance and they have so much music you haven’t listened to. Their albums have a story arc and they are philosophical and they are in order. I discovered you with Dimash and I’m so happy you’re seeing more of BTS. I’m a Dear and Army. Love you Also they have so many genres jazzy, hip hop, r&b, pop, rap... so many songs you will love they are the genre they are extremely talented and diverse. One day I’d love for Dimash and BTS to work together.

They write beautiful lyrics. .....proud to be BTS Army! Love my boys!

Wow, u ended up doing this song and outro tear back to back, which is how they perform it in concert. The emotions by all seven members in these two songs, unlike anything I’ve ever seen.amazing💜💜

When he said Fear starts stands as False Evidence Appearing Real, who else said ahhh, never thought of it that way? 9:02

Yes, BTS have so many great vulnerable songs that in my opinion is what makes ARMY love them.

They have a huge discography. They touched many genres, including multiple genres in a single song sometimes. This is why it is said of them that the genre that they do *is* BTS.

Jungkook on fire He is the most perfect 😩🔥🐰

If you wanna see lyricism of highest quality you should react to 4o clock. That song is a poem.

Jin's voice ❤️

Ps: bts has A LOT of music like this, and to be honest it’s my favorite

They got me like that too, here a Mexican 60 years old army that love them very much! 💜💜🇲🇽🇲🇽💜💜

Thats howni became army after learning their songs and the meanings.. they are more than beautiful faces, talent but the courage they put in their music, hearts and soul is so precious💜

I remember the first time I listened to this song I cried, and I didn’t even know the lyrics. Exactly where I was and what I was doing, I’ll never forget how beautiful it was. Loved your reaction, loved revisiting how it is to hear this one for the first time💜

I love BTS. It's so rare to have 7 so talented people in the same band. You can hear at once who's singing, because their voices are so unique. All of them write lyrics, and they are amazing dancers. They put on such a great performance for us. My favourites right now are Louder than bombs, Jamais vu, Dimple, Pied Piper, Silver spoon, Mic Drop, Go go, On. And also Abyss by Jin and Sweet night and Inner child by V. I also love Anpanman, Mikrokosmos, Zero o'clock, Moon, Epiphany, Your eyes tell, Butterfly, Stay, Dis-ease, So what, Let go, Ugh!, Ddaeng, Best of me, Airplane pt2, Blood, sweat and tears, Fake Love, Boy with Love, DNA, Idol. You have already seen Black swan and Magic shop which I also love. Hey, the list just goes on and on and on. You can't go wrong with these guys, they are amazing. The truth untold is such a beautiful song, I got goosebumps the first time I heard it, and cried when I read the lyrics. The language is not a barrier for great music, but I am learning korean with my daughter so that we can understand more of the lyrics and when they're talking. BTS have a great relationship with ARMY. We are bulletproof the eternal is just so heartwarming. "Tell me your every story, tell me why you don't stop this, tell me why you keep walking, walking with us" Borahae 💜

This is why they are the biggest in the world this performance was so amazing

Steve Aoki actually produced this. It showed a different side of him for me too, in addition to BTS's range.

it's amazing how armys will ask you what genre you like then they'll recommend you bts songs that fit your fav genre

This is one of my favorite song. It gives my goosebumps every time I listen to it. It’s such a beautiful and emotional song. I love them so much.

As you knew, this song is a kind of confession made into a poem dedicated to the Army.

bts have very hyped songs and they also have the most beautiful and moving songs too if only people listen to them without prejudice.. 💜

This is my favorite performance by them - there is this beautiful version where on the last day of the tour Jimin turns to JK and says "but I still want you" where the rest of the performances he has his back to JK and does his normal "and I still want you".

I am glad you gave them a chance to show you how diverse their discography is. You might also want to watch "House Of Cards by BTS live version [ENG SUB]". All of the BTS members have solo songs that showcase their beautiful voices and talents. The rappers have trio songs that are amazing. The vocal line as you just witnessed can deliver beautiful ballads. All 7 together, solo, rap line, vocal line, they have amazing talent and passion. They shouldn't be described as a K Pop group because they are so much more than that.

I think you would love House of Cards,another beautiful,passionate song from the vocal line.

This song is Amazing... BTS 💜

I feel you.. it got me too along with fake love and magic shop and SPRING DAY!!!!

Omg man their ballads are next level beautiful! Most bring me to tears everytime I hear them. Their voices, the lyrics, melodies. Stunning.

You do not know how much I admire ,adore your honest reaction... How much pleasure it is to see your reaction on BTS. Thank you Fable, and please continue it. I am always interested how you feel BTS songs and performances. And Jeon Jungkook is fire 🔥💜

Heartbeat is another hard hitting song.

You have to check out BTS "Blue & Grey" and "House Of Cards"... These songs are just as amazing

Ohhh this was one of my top 10 BTS songs most listened to on Spotify last year. It’s just beautiful. Thank you for your reaction I loved watching!

This song made me cry the first time I heard it and I had no idea what they were saying with their words. I’m learning Korean now, but I still love just the feeling and the music mostly, without knowing translations. Now, knowing what their songs say/mean/translate to, I’m in awe of them. 💜

finally i found a reactor that appreciates bts’ lyricisms SUBSCRIBED!!

Thank you April for all these BTS requests🤗🤗. You are awesome for bringing more attention to those who aren't familiar with BTS to the forefront of how BTS is more than just a kpop band. BTS can do any genre and I wish more non fans look into their music to see and discover how BTS can change their looks like a chameleon to fit the genre of music. Its like BTS has everything in one group. If I wanted to listen to pop rock, hip hop, r&b, funk, rap, etc...I can find it in this one group. No other known musical acts in the world can successfully do so many different genres of music like BTS does so I am not surprised when reactors like Fable is surprised that BTS can perform in different genre of music with lyrical substances included.

I cried before I knew the translation so I understand what you are saying. Music transcends languages.

Thank you for realizing and appreciating their art 💜

Loved this reaction. This is why I love this group. So many layers and experiences in their music. I think you will also appreciate the many dimensions in one of their classics, “Spring Day”. (Btw, kudos to April for these recommendations!)

I love how expressive they all are, how they allow themselves to be immersed in the emotion of the songs, and all of their facial expressions and body movements show the feelings and the story that they convey. This is how you know you are watching true artists.

You also might love the song 0:00 zero o’clock it’s from the vocal line as well

They are so talented totally agree music is so powerful . even when you do not understandi the language this was amazing an so are you Fi thanku so much love and God bless x

They are sooooo much more than a pop group. Or a hip hop group. I also love their protest songs, like "Am I Wrong?" (which almost got them blacklisted by the Korean government at the time) and also "Baepsae," and "N.O," which is an early work.

Great lyric analysis ☺️💜 more pleeeease😁

I have a feeling he would love the Wings album

BTS vocalline. Anytime they decide to come at you - you lose - when you actually win. ;D AND That is The Truth Untold ! ;D One word. Dimple.

I know the feeling.When I heard it for the first time,because my daughter listen to them,..I thought ,. okay,..nice,..but then I dived deeper in to the rabbithole and they are really amazing! And that saying from a 50 year old mom from the Netherlands💜😆

Me encanta la voz de tae💜💜💜 jin perfecto

I love V voice sound so deep

Wow what a great reaction... really love how you broke it down and really happy you are seeing this siide of them. Yes they do the all energy singing and dancing but they also have many songs like this. Beautiful lyrical content is what draws many of us to them 💜

i have watched many reaction videos to this song but you are one of the few who really appreciate and understand the meaning of the song. looking forward for other bts songs that you will react to in the future! try listening to serendipity and singularity it's beautiful

Another of one my favourites. I would recommend House of Cards, Pied Piper and Dimple live versions... just to name a few.

Great Reaction! TYSM for reacting to The Truth Untold by BTS!

Proud to be a Dearmy ;-) Dear + Army

You've barely touched on BTS yet. They are absolutely incredible, their songs, the lyrics of their songs, their choreography, their videos, their live shows, their individual performances & vocals. They are loved so much by their true fans because they really connect with their fans, their love, the vulnerability, they uplift you, they give you strength. And I absolutely hate that term "boy band". These are beautiful young men who sing beautifully together. They are not boys & are not a band. I don't know....that's just me & how I feel. But I know if you were to listen to more of their songs, you will love them even more. And they have beautiful personalities & they are sooo funny too. BTS has a whole "Universe"! Try reacting to; Singularity, Stigma, Pied Piper, Serendipity, Butterfly, Filter, Idol, Spring Day. Airplane 2.

Thank you for sharing your reaction with us. I loved the articulate, eloquent things that you had to say about this song.

T.q for the mation kim teahyung vocals..I'm very proud about him..so softpul...t.q the reaction.. this is a very good...
