You noted that they were in the desert but you could hear the ocean. They have a saying where they tell ARMY something like: "With you, even the desert turns into an ocean."
@@naffy113 That's what I was thinking, that it's hinting at their hidden track, Sea! I also didn't notice the ocean sounds at the beginning and end of the song till another reactor mentioned it. I was too busy looking at them and the scenery and lyrics, lol.
it goes even deeper than this and even Sea, actually. From their debut, Namjoon has always talked about being in a desert and striving to reach the ocean. (The metaphor even appears in (one of) the hidden track(s) at the end of 2 Cool for Skool.) At the point that we get to Sea, Namjoon confesses that they've found 'the ocean' but that it really might just be a blue desert (feeling that their current level of fame was fragile and superficial (and also scary, in some ways, just as scary as 'the desert). But recently, he said the quote OP stated, being both literal (as they were in Vegas, literally in the desert), and figurative (meaning that even in their dark times, ARMY keeps them going). That metaphor itself has traveled with them from 2013.
It's fun to watch someone who doesn't know all the references yet, because your reaction illustrates what BTS is so good at--getting their message through on an emotional level, whether you know anything about them or not. Welcome to the Love, and the Lovers. It brings the tears many times, and if you checked out many other reactors to this song, you would definitely see you are not alone in your tears. I would say the definition of an ARMY is not that they are a fan, but that they are IN LOVE with BTS. It's a love affair BTS doesn't want to end any more than we do, and every song they make is a love letter to us in one way or another. ". . . Promise we'll keep on coming back for more." 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I would add that we have gotten so used to the word love meaning only romantic love, that this kind of love between BTS and ARMY is not often called love. But I think you make a good point that it is love, like between family or friends where you just want the best for the other person (people).
I was thinking exactly the same.... Bout the ocean, the phrase "you never walk alone" and some other things in other videos also... But I LOVE how she reacts to them, with so much emotion 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Borahae ARMY
I‘m watching this in December now and today the members sent Jin off to the military. Today is the last day they are 7 for a long time. And I can‘t help but think that your body knew. ❤
This is a great song for all of Army to enjoy together! 💜 Would love to see you react to No More Dream by BTS!! It's their debut song, I wonder what you would have to say about how their choreography has changed 🤔
This was so interesting and eye-opening to see how you reacted to this video. You are in the beginning of your BTS journey, so your interpretation of all of the references to past videos (like the carousel, bus, angel, piano, etc.) was very different to how ARMY who have been with the boys with years would see them (which isn’t a bad thing! I wish I could somehow experience all these MVs for the first time again, which is why many ARMYs love watching reactors). It is comforting to know that people who are new to BTS or even people seeing them for the first time with this video would feel inspired and emotional watching Yet to Come. Thank you for your reaction💜
I cried after a few watches as I recognized all the callbacks to old music videos, getting on the bus that they got off in their debut mv, the ocean sounds, all the Spring Day references, all the outfits, the gestures, all the while singing that they will keep going and continue to create great moments. As soon as I heard the title would be Yet to Come (The Most Beautiful Moment), I thought it was amazing. Just because we get older doesn't mean we don't have to not look forward to things. We can still have beautiful moments in the now and future while still acknowledging the beautiful moments of the past.
I definitely cried too! I appreciate what you said about them still being so beautiful on the inside because similar to what you were saying, the culture of fame and celebrity is practically tailored to foster inner ugliness as a necessary means of survival. It really reminds me how remarkable and special it is that they are still so kind and spread only positivity.
You're not the only one who got emotional. I'm still getting emotional watching reactors get emotional. What's interesting to me was there were so many references to their old MVs , it felt so nostalgic. But since you are BBy ARMY, and haven't seen all those MVs yet, it surprised me that you also got emotional. Just shows how good our boys are at story telling. Thank6for reacting to this Lindsey 💜💜💜
BTS just announced they'll take a break from the group project 😭💜 im so sad but also happy that they're taking break and focus on themselves 💜 lets take this as a moment to catch up all their content before they come back 💜💜💜
Hahaha I love this reaction!! Tbh in order to understand everything that's going on you'd have to watch a lot of their previous music, but it's amazing how you still got emotional over the song even without the whole background!! This song is in many ways about their career I'd say, and that's why there are so many references to other MVs. For exemple, the angel coming out of the sand and the moment at the end where Jin closes Tae's eyes are references to Blood, Sweat and Tears. The empty merry-go-round saying "you never walk alone" is from Spring Day (highly recommend), and the school bus is from their debut song, No More Dream. The train is from Spring Day but it appears in other MVs as well I think? Then the blue container behind RM is from Run. There are other tiny references as well but it's hard to list them; they come from the MVs I talked about but I'm sure other people can find way more connections. And don't worry, all their history combined with such meaningful lyrics really makes you cry.
First, never apologize for living your life! We love you here on YT but it's something to celebrate that you've got so many exciting things happening in all parts of your life. Second, it was nice to see that even someone newer to BTS could still feel the emotion of this song and MV even without knowing all the references. As I'm sure others have commented, every outfit, prop, pose, and action was a callback to past MVs, and some of the lyrics too. Someone made a side-by-side comparison vid shoeing the references. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5wHkqkT8PaQ.html A few days after this MV released, BTS shared with us that they are now taking a sabbatical from group music because they need time to spread their wings, explore themselves, and refill their well. They're calling this the end of their chapter 1, and it makes the imagery and lyrics of Yet To Come hit that much harder. They've moved out of their shared apartment and will now be focusing on individual music careers and personal growth. They've promised to come back together for group music down the road, but there's no time frame on that. In the meantime they'll still be doing other things as a group, like recording new episodes of their entertainment show Run BTS. It's been a lot to process this week. ARMY stand behind their choice 100% because they expressed to us how much they need this change to stay healthy and grow, but of course it's emotional for us to face this change. Whether you react to it or just watch for personal reasons, I do highly recommend watching their Festa dinner talk, where they shared this news and their hearts for an hour. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1t0iJ7F_k9Q.html
There are a lot of references that are from their past videos. Someone put this mv together side by side with the references in this mv, here is the link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5wHkqkT8PaQ.html I think you would enjoy it and it’s just the song no talking no explanation 🙂 We understand how you feel that’s why we are all here 😉💜
This video has tons of references to past music videos. The blue swing is from spring day mv and the train as well. The statue is from blood sweat and tears. Also the movements as well. When v’s Hands turn into like a frame that is from spring day. Pretty much everything and each movement has meaning.
"No choreography", but you're still able to analyze and portray your feelings and understanding of what is happening in the video. Thank you, many reaction videos are so superficial, but your reaction doesn't seem like it. I truly love that about you, true and honest, and smart, not some superficial sh**.
Facts 💜 that’s how you know when people genuinely connect with BTS. Without knowledge and pre-occupied understanding of anything at all about them but ” when you know, you just know. You.just.know. “ That’s how I rolled myself into BTS as well :’( She is smart and well spoken and genuinelt truthful to her emotions.
Oh Lindsey, if you knew the things we know : you will need boxes of tissues There are layers of emotions with BTS and one doesn’t need to be encyclopedia to feel This is why BTS spoke to all It doesn’t matter if you are one day old army or pre-debut fan with BTS, one never walks alone
desert with sea sounds is a reference to their hidden song Sea from 2017 (means it was only released on physical albums for army) "This place that I thought was the *sea* was actually a *desert* and our second name was “idols from a small agency with no connections” We were cut from broadcast countless times To fill in for someone was our dream Some said we won’t be able to make it big because we’re from a small company I know I know I know as well The days when seven of us tried to sleep in one room The faith we had before falling asleep that tomorrow would be different The mirage of a *desert* Though I could see its form, I couldn’t grasp it I prayed that we would survive in this *desert* that felt endless I prayed that it wasn’t reality Eventually the mirage was caught by us and became reality, and the *desert* we feared got filled with our blood, sweat, and tears to become the *sea* But what are these fears among all this happiness? We know too well that this place was originally a *desert* I don’t want to cry, I don’t want to rest (No, how about resting just for a bit) (No no no) I don’t want to lose, this was originally a *desert* (Well, then we have to run) (Well, we have to cry more)"
Even though your journey has only just started, you totally got their message and what they stand for! 💜 Once you watch more of their MVs, you'll understand the visual references. Thank you for another reaction and respecting our boys~
Yes, we did cry! It was a crying session for ARMYs when this dropped. :’) Although you may still have a lot of MVs to watch and BTS moments to experience to be able to fully grasp what the whole video was about, I LOVED EVERYTHING YOU SAID. I’m just so glad that their love for ARMYs was able to transcend to you-you felt that! It was genuine; it was real! So, thank you! Borahae Recommendation for choreo vid: (since they’ve been releasing old practice vids of some songs recently) hope you can react to BEST OF ME. Footwork is fire!
I think it does credit to your sensitivity as an artist that even without knowing all the references to their history, you felt the soft gravity of their words in tingles and tears. 💜
Pretty much everything in this music video all the props, the outfits, hand gestures, to their sitting arrangements at the beginning and the end are references to their older music videos. There are a lot but one I will mention right away is in their debut music video No More Dream from 2013 it starts with them on a school bus and they get off of it and now 9 years later they are back on the school bus.
The sea in the desert is from an ARMY TIME message: "If we're together, even the desert becomes the sea." The carousel and shoes are from Spring Day, and the angel statue is from BST. They are reminiscing the past in the MV while looking forward to what comes next.
This MV, this song, the references from other eras... everything is very special, emotional and beautiful. I liked your reaction. This month is the boys' debut anniversary month. The 13th (today), to be more specific, is their debut day. But during the first half of June they release several content for this celebration, which is called BTS Festa. And among these contents are never-before-seen dance videos. You should definitely react. I'm looking forward to it. You will love.
🙋♀️ I cried like a little baby watching the MV premiere. Also, thank you. What you said about them after the reaction was so beautiful. Made me cry again!!!
I get emotional too, so beautiful, the best is yet to come!! Here is a link to an amazing video made by Alex, LoveTheBasics with all the references to earlier music videos: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5wHkqkT8PaQ.html
Agree. when you watch this, you will see the references without any spoilers on the songs itself you just see the comparison of the this MV and the other MV of other (older) BTS songs with the title of the song showed in there too.
Their music really touches everyones soul.. I’m crying like a baby too when I watched it ,also The Magic Shop really makes me emotional.. The new song of JK My You.. you really need to see that too..💜
Every outfit, every prop, all relics from past videos. Armies all over the world are bawling their eyes out 💜 the video feels like a hug and a goodbye at the same time. We're all praying it's not yet! Thank you for sharing your reaction, it's truly wonderful to see what someone who doesn't know the references gets out of it, amazing to know we're not the only ones crying! Borahae 💜💜💜
I was missing your reactions Lindsey and especially with the slew of dance practices that Hybe (BTS' company ) released for their anniversary I was eager to see your reactions. I was surprised to see this reaction since there is no dance choreography, but I love that you did. It was great to see a reaction from someone so new to BTS who does not have the background and so sees this MV with a different perspective that is just as valid. It fascinated me that the music and MV was emotional to you and hit you even without having the backstory because you appreciate their extraordinary impact and exceptional courage.
This song was such a sentimental present to ARMY. Every single thing in this video represents their past. You should watch an explanation video of this. It will help newer ARMY.
I so agree!!!!! I would watch the explanation video first or at least rewatch the mv after, the mv means so much more when you know what's actually going on. To many scenes can be taken in a different way. Still amazing though which ever way you watch it. 🙂🙂💜💜
Everything in the MV was a reference to an older MV, but this proves that their music has the ability to move people even if they don't know all the references. Little did we know what was coming the next day. Thanks for reacting.
Welcome to ARMY, Lindsey :) Now you're getting what we feel pretty much on a daily basis when listening to their music or watching their content or looking at their pictures and reading their posts. They are this incredible source of never ending positive energy that just.... envelop you in a warm hug. The message you pointed out "You Never Walk Alone"? That's the essence of it, because no matter where you go and what you experience, BTS and ARMY are always there RIGHT beside you. I know it may sound corny but it's absolutely true that "BTS find you when you need them most". I can vouch for the accuracy of that as it happened to me despite my initial skepticism, and in all my years as an avid music lover I have NEVER experienced anything like it. It's one of the best feelings in the world :) Borahae! 💜💜💜💜
The shoes is a reference to their beginnings, their debut. The statue is from Blood, Sweet & Tears. This is closure to their first chapter of their discography. The new material is them going forward in a more mature way. Yes you hear the ocean, another reference to the BTS universe…we all cry
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND watching these two videos how that explain a lot of the references; -Xceleste’s explanation video or references -BacktoTheBasic channel references video I definitely almost cried. No judgement though.
We are all the way to 200 comments, so... 1. I won't be surprised if you never see mine! 2. Someone else has surely left the comment I'm thinking. 3. Still, wouldn't it be a shame if no one has mentioned xCeleste? So here goes: In her reaction to Yet to Come, she explains (off the cuff, in real time) many of the scenes, props, and poses we see. And she's adorable in her heartfelt reactions! But for someone who isn't familiar with many BTS mvs, many mysteries will remain. You'll find the info you want by searching "BTS yet to come explanation by xCeleste". In that video she puts early BTS mv clips side by side with many of the scenes you just now saw. Some objects remind us of a significant prop, and some poses are from the original mv dance moves! (There are dance moves to talk about; you just have to do it from memory, lol.) It's fascinating! And as someone else said, it'll make you cry even harder when you understand the references. Also her thumbnail typography caused me to see this connection: B T S YET TO COME BEST IS YET TO COME 💜 Borahae! 💜
Yes so.. all the elements in the video were references to their past works, music videos... as they are closing this 1st chapter as a group (their 1st official mv was them going off the bus 9 years ago and now going back in the bus and screen closing) and this is sort of a farewell song, which you can definitely tell and feel.... This is not a hiatus they will still release group content but for now musically they will all release their individual albums to find their own voice as individuals and artists and in this song they promised to come back and eventually resume to their group activities, but it will definitely be different from now on. Please refer to their Festa video to understand ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1t0iJ7F_k9Q.html . This is really a message for ARMY, so I would advise to be really careful with this if you do address the topic. ARMY is excited but a bit in a mental breakdown for now so we will not let anyone say any BS, the wound is wide open rn lol. I believe you can watch it in your own time and not record your reaction... They really did not do this for the show and they are being very vulnerable but it can help you understand what's next for them... This came quite as shock but regardless we should support their decision and they truly need it. This will be very interesting to see their growth. 1st album will be J-Hope next month around mid-July and he will be performing solo at Lollapalooza end of July. Hence the emotion from this song lol
Love your vids i get to learn so much about dance i want to take as hobby also your into rap or fun hype dance songs next check out there cypher pt 1 to 4 live performance and there older songs live performances like No more dream & we are bulletproof pt 2 & attack on bangtan, gogo , anpanman , baepsae 💜💜💜💜💜 Who else with me on this 💜💜💜
There are about 50 plus Easter eggs in there! xCeleste has a explanation video already, you should react to it and then take notes of all the videos it refers to and react to them. Dancing is great with them, but you get now that they are soooo deep, they love us like we love them. 💜💜💜
You can refer to this video, many of the "Yet to Come" MV scenes are related to the previous MVs. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5wHkqkT8PaQ.html&ab_channel=LoveTheBasics
The ocean refers to the best moment to come. We can hear it but not see it YER From the BU, the boys are happiest by the sea. We gonna get there, BTS and ARMY.
If you want to see a video about all the easter eggs and references to their past music videos, xcelste created one that pretty much covers all of it. :)
Yes, I cried too, surprising myself; your reaction was very relatable, and I agree with your analysis of your emotions. In fact, I think this part of the reason why they have such a strong following: At the height of fame and success, they still remain such decent, relatable, humble people with such good intentions. It's always surprising and refreshing.
To fully understand all of the parallels, you have to watch Butterfly on stage prologue Blood sweat and tears Spring day Run Euphoria No more dream I need you This video is basically the conclusion of the story in the alternative Bangtan universe from the The Most Beautiful Moment in life era
There’s a great video showing all the past references ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5wHkqkT8PaQ.html. For older armies this MV is beyond emotional but it’s lovely to see that it also touched you, that’s BTS for you…
This MV is all about reminiscing last 9 years of their journey. It has a lot of scenes, props, vehicles and even members' outfits that link back to their old MVs. By the time vedio ended I had big fat tears streaming down my face bcuz I know significance of every single one of them. I'm can't really tell you about it all as you will have to see the old MVs to know the meaning behind them but I'm gonna tell you the meaning behind the last scene So the bus you see in almost the end is from their debut single. It's where they started. So by going in that bus again they are sort of completing the circle you could say. As they have been saying that this is the end of chapter 1 and from here onwards starts chapter 2 of their musical journey Also its totally fine to get emotional we all are humans after all See you soon
Actually most of the scenes are connected to their old music videos. I know you watch most of their dance videos because you’re a choreographer but if you want to check out their other MVs that is connected to this one you can check these out: 1. Blood, sweat and tears (angel statue, when Jin covered V’s eyes) 2. Springday (swing ride with U never walk alone, train, the shoes of jimin, the ending of this mv) 3. No more dream (the school bus) 4. Fake love (the freight behind RM, Suga’s piano) 5 & 6. I need you & Euphoria (on Jungkook’s running & balancing himself on the sand) 7. Run (Jin’s pickup truck) 8. Boy in luv (V’s rose) 9. Just one day (their seating position at the start of this MV) 10. BTS on stage prologue - a short film (others scenes are also taken from here)
I bawled my eyes out for hours. That last scene in the bus was full of meaning: the bus was from their first music video, but they're now sitting in it. The way they sit and how the camera pans was exactly like their mv from Spring Day. The sound of the ocean in the desert was very significant (i think someone in the comments have explained this one). The angel in the dessert was similar to the angel in Blood,Sweat,Tears mv. The Ford truck was also from another old mv (was it I Need U or Run? Someone my brain can't remember). Train was from Spring Day (actually there was a lot of Spring Day reminiscence). Basically they're saying that they're closing this chapter and starting a new one together with Army.
I have only been ARMY since 9/8/2020….and you are a new ARMY ….yet we are moved and are able to understand the message presented because of their masterful performance. Their message comes through every visual, lyrical and melodic nuance we input while watching and listening. Every time we watch or listen we receive a positive message or even find a new message or meaning intended just for ourselves. We each get what we need from BTS! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I hope u react to SPRINDAY MV and Italian Army SPRINGDAY MV EXPLAINED video. This YET TO COME MV has a lot of references of their old music videos morr specially SPRINGDAY. I will look forward to it. Thank u for the genuine reaction
Soooooo... this video actually an anthology itself, the odd things laid on the dessert is all reference from their past MV and journey, etc : 1. The Big winged Statue = Blood Sweat and Tears 2. The Never Walk Alone Carousel = Spring Day 3. The Red Rose In the Dessert = Singularity 4. The Truck : RUN and Euphoria 5. The Yellow School Bus : No More Dream 6. The Sitting Position : Just One Day 7. JK looking inside his O shaped hand : Prologue 8. The 20219 Container: Run 9. The members running and JK Walking : Euphoria 10. Suga Sitting on a piano with Flowers : First Love and Stay Gold and many2 more Spring Day and Blood and Tears etc reference.... A very nostalgic and sentimental MV and song for Old ARMY, so it's really nice seeing baby ARMY feeling the feels on this MV.... appreciate the reaction!!!!
I LOVED EVERY WORD YOU SAID SO SO MUCH. Thank you for loving them. BTS & all of us together will change this shitty world day by day, song by song. 🙏🏽🫶🏼💜
I am an old guy who used to make my living playing country music back in the 80s and 90s. I've been playing jazz for the last 20 years or so. I am ALL IN on the K-Pop. Watching this video was the first time I've heard this song and I loved it instantly. I discovered K-Pop through Blackpink and am a huge fan of theirs. I love what you are doing here. Keep up the great work. 👍
Please watch their MVs starting from their debut “No More Dream” (the school bus), HYYH/the beautiful moment in life era for all MVs (the ocean, the truck, the piano & flowers, the container & gas pump), “Blood Sweat and Tears” (the statue), “Spring Day” (the swing/merry go round, the train, the shoes, the way Jimin reach out his hand), “Just One Day” (the formation that they sit ---> you need to watch their dance practice 😁) I think I’ve mentioned most of them. Please also watch the explanation from Xceleste. She has a lot of video references that can make you understand more about BTS. Fighting!!! 💪🏼 Can’t wait for your next reaction. BTW, I cried too since all the memories from all the past MVs are there, their lyrics about promises to ARMYs, everything. It gave me goosebumps.
Look up BTS 2022 Festa dance practice videos on their BANGTANTV YT channel. They dropped like eight or nine of them I think. You would love them! The one for “Butterfly” is so beautiful 😍 and “Am I Wrong” is crazy for being such a short song. 💜
2:40 seated arrangement is like from Just One Day 2:48 might be from Fake Love Jin's part near the end of choreo 3:49 From Spring Day 4:37 statue Blood Sweat and Tears MV 4:42 white shoes from Spring day MV 6:06 train from Spring Day MV 6:29 I might be reaching but this move I think I've seen from spring day MV at the end?? 🤣 6:37 Blood Sweat and Tears MV V does it to Jin.. here they switch roles 🤌😭 6:40 bus from No More Dream MV 7:21 Jin does this in Spring Day MV 7:46 this scene also Spring Day Well that's all I can think off from my mind atm.. 💜 y'all welcome
Love your reaction! Always fun to watch. 👏🤩 I recommend you to check out B.I x Soulja Boy 'BTBT' .. dance practice film .. you're gonna love B.I's moves ..he's incredibly talented! 💜🕺
You didn't recognize "you never walk alone"? It's time for you discover the Queen, "Spring Day" which has an epic music video, but more importantly for you, gorgeous choreography (which is NOT in the music video).
Lindsey... Same here, emotional. Here's their FESTA video link that, if you haven't seen it, is a must-watch ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1t0iJ7F_k9Q.html Much Love Hon ~ Hugs, T ~
Actually yet to come includes a lot of reference of their hit song at 2017, Spring Day. Yet to Come MV resembles a lot of Spring Day's MV, and if you go down to the rabbit hole of BTS, I think you will find Yet to Come 1000x emotional that now you're feeling😆
It’s so interesting to see someone react to this who has no idea about all the references. Even without knowing you see what BTS wants to show even if you are only on the first layer of this journey. The emotion resonates
You may have seen it, but RM said something to the effect of... When I think about our success, I give ARMY 50% credit, each member gets 5%, and Big Hit gets 15%. Remembering that my part in all of this is 5% helps keeps me grounded in this crazy industry.
Welcome to Team Waterfall! 😂😭 I sobbed too. There is something about seeing them so happy together on the bus in the end, and knowing that they are finally getting the praise and recognition they deserve, that is both so beautiful and so heartwrenching. 💜 we love our humble kings!
