Musician Reacts To BTS For The First Time 

Popular music usually doesn't represent artist very well. If you are really interested in BTS music I recommend you Black swan, Mic drop, UGH, Fake love, On

Kpop idols are all trained dancers, some groups and idols are better dancers than others of course, but everyone is a good dancer. Kpop groups usually have leaders, in BTS it is RM, one of the rappers. The leaders in kpop groups don't have to be the most popular member, they just need leadership. They actually have to lead the groups, solve conflicts, etc. The closed captions are the actual translations of the song. You can trust them. BTS as a group only have one English song, Dynamite. All the other songs are either Korean or Japanese. Kpop groups often release songs in different languages, to attract more fans.

My recommendation for your next reaction would be "ON KINETIC MANIFESTO".

So as I read from the comments you already got to know that the leader of the group is RM and interesting fact about him is that he has an IQ148 also he's the only one fluent in english.BTS is performing and nominated at the 2021 GRAMMY awards with they're first all english song Dynamite (you most likely have heard that since it was everywhere samsung commercial,radio literally everywhere)

It was really interesting seeing them the first time through your eyes! Really enjoyed the commentary :)

Loved the video! Btw DNA was the first song I ever heard from BTS as well. I was just like you 3 years ago and have no idea just how amazing these guys are! You get to learn just how much work is put into their craft. I'm a bit late but I hope you will come to enjoy more of what they bring to the table. Once you get into them it's very hard to stop digging for more 😊💜

just bc the song name is in english doesn’t mean anything. they primarily sing in korean bc they’re korean. they only have a handful of majority/full english songs out of their discography of 100+ songs

their song meanings are all the best.. not just the typical boy band!💜 thankyou for reacting..

Storyline. Oh boy you're in a ride. This is in fact part of Love yourself series, the first stage of loving someone.

The story line about background and the MV... If you see woth slow motion then you can see the film of the theater is "Singing In The Rain"... The classic musical film...

Happy to see that our boys are getting a lot more attention than before

All of their videos are available with eng subtitles ....and u will hear English throughout their songs here and there

MIC DROP , DOPE , FAKE LOVE AnD FIRE mv btssssss love it wish you watch it

also dna is a song about how family isnt always by dna and how bts think of each other like brothers and they think of thier fandom,ARMY,as thier family as well that way if you ever get more in to bts ill see a small girl with blond hair that is support to represent us as a sibling figure

Can you please react to Interlude:shadow or lie? Also nice video 💜💜😌

Boy With Luv is a fan song. BTS are known for being genuine and actually appreciating their fans because they literally started from the bottom. BTS know they literally wouldn’t be where they are today without their fans’ support. For example, they always thank their fans (ARMY) first whenever they receive an award. And so this song is about the love they have for ARMY 😁💜

if you ever get bored and just want to see the most adorable friendship check out Halsey and bts's friendship theirs abound of combination videos on RU-vid i especially recommend the moment when halsay was joking around about how the boys have cool custom mics and so next time they see her which was around Christmas they gave she a golden custom mic

Have you turned the Captions on??? Big Hit Video's all have English Captions of the lyrics. FYI - in the choreography, when the members link hands to create huge arm waves, it is to represent the ubiquitous spiraling of DNA strands.

If you are interested in them watch Carpool Karaoke with James Cordon 😊 than you’ll get a feeling for them as artists and what kind of vibe they give off. I think some Armys here should give this guy a break ... He said he’s only exposed to US music so of course he’s thrown of by it being in Korean. Didn’t it took you guys a second to adjust ?! Cause I am open to languages but it always takes me some time to adjust too :) He’s trying and he’s positive towards them :)

I prefer foreign music such as k pop to American. American I like listening to. But hate watching it for it is boring in my option. Bye is who got me into k pop. I am all ready huge into the Asian culture. Love the video.

BTS from nobodies to legends 2019

ok, i subscribed.

See fire dynamite and dope

The Title should have been: "Musician discovers that there's music in other languages and that you can actually enjoy it." 😛

ask yourself why music in a foreign language throw you off. we - people from not english speaking countries, are listening to your "english" music all the time and have no problem if we don't understand it, because music has no boundaries, if you love it then you love it. and if we want to understand it we just use subtitles and translations. it's that easy. but a lot of you native english speakers think you are superior for some strange reason. you don't need to emphasize that they are foreigners it's not a critique, just enjoy or don't enjoy their music/videos/performances

I find it quite interesting that every “criticism” that you have for the videos you reacted to, don’t necessarily apply to their other videos. Such as when you said “there doesn’t seem to be a storyline” yet bts have a whole universe story line thing that runs through some of their videos 😂. I don’t mean this in a bad way, I just find it really interesting and cool. I recommend black swan, I need u and ON, I also recommend reacting to some of their live performances. They are well known for being AMAZING performers, such as the MMA 2020 and 2019 performances which went viral because of how extraordinary they were. Also, there is Korean next to the English title of the music videos which is the translation/equivalent title in Korean, so they have different song names in English. I.e. the Korean name for boy with luv is “A poem for small things”. They just tend to have English names for the songs so that foreign fans can find them easier online and also so we can read them 😅

the moment he said "tHeRe's NoT rEaLly a StoRy liNe goIng ON iN tHiS viDeO" ..........Armys can relate to how I'm feeling.

About the storyline thing, no body has storylines as amazing as BTS. They are following a storyline since the very beginning. You can't understand the storyline through one music video. To understand it you need to not only watch each of their MVs carefully, but also focus on every single detail, the name of the album, the name of each of the song, the chronology, everything. BTS is a black hole. You can't come out once you step in.

Then he reacts to Mic Drop. "Is this the same group?"

So a few things... First: With BTS, the true magic is in their B sides. Album title tracks (like both songs you just listened to) are meant to have the broadest appeal so their sound is going to be a bit more traditionally "poppy". If you want to understand how BTS are as artists, check out some b sides (lots of people have already recommended some good ones). Second: BTS is like a trifle (or your layered dessert of choice). There's a surface layer that can be take at face value (ie: Boy With Love = a song about love). Then, if you go a little deeper and read the lyrics you might see that it's not just about loving someone because of superficial reasons, but really wanting to understand someone and to appreciate all the small things that others might take for granted. Then if you go a bit deeper and make the Boy In Luv connection you'll see that it also shows growth from young boys with crushes to having a true adult relationship. And then if you go just a bit deeper...you're ARMY (lol) you know this song is for us and how BTS and ARMY are connected through the small experiences we share. All that is to say, you can be a casual listener of BTS and just appreciate how their songs sound, or you can do a little digging and discover how powerful their lyrics and messages are. Third: As an aid to any lyrical digging you want to do, I will always suggest Doolset Bangtan (on Twitter, or she has a website). She is a great ARMY translator and she also adds cultural references or translation notes to help bridge the cultural divide. Of course there are a slew of great translators on Twitter, I just always come back to her. Fourth: Lots of people recommended songs, I'm going to recommend a whole album. Love Yourself: Tear (in my opinion) is one of their best albums from top to bottom (Map of the Soul 7 is a close second for me). Sonically, lyrically, visually... it just has so much going for it, so I will always encourage people to experience that album as a whole. Thank you for reading my novel, and thanks for your reaction!

RM is the leader, the guy rapping in a white suit in Boy With Luv. His role is really to liaise between the members and the company rather than being 'in charge' , but since he is fluent in English he naturally has the most to do when they have foreign interviews. The other members are working hard on their english skills too; bioth because they want to communicate with their fans more, but also to give RM a break!

I loved your reaction! I looked through the comments and I saw that basically everyone already told you a lot of stuff I wanted to say, so I’m just gonna tell you this, if when you activate the cc it says just “English” and not “auto-generated English”, then it’s probably okay, and put there by a translator! Also, just an interesting thing as a non-English speaker, most people that listen to English songs actually don’t understand the words, lots of my friends don’t know what their favorite song means and are just listening to the music. Not to talk about older people that didn’t get to learn a lot of English in school, they don’t even bother to look up the translation. So it might be a bit weird for English speakers to not understand a song without a translation, but it’s perfectly normal for most of the world. That’s something that I find kind of funny when I watch reactions to non-English music!

RU-vid’s closed captioning is reliable as long as it’s not “auto-generated” (you can check by clicking the little settings in the bottom, right-hand corner and seeing; it should say if it’s generated). But don’t worry none of BTS’ English subtitles are auto-generated. At least for their mvs :)

The deeper you dig into their discography, the more versatile they get. They really cover a wide range of genres. Their popular music is definitely absolute bops but do check out other songs like black swan, spring day, Outro: tear, paradise, life goes on, and many more.

BTS right now are nominated at GRAMMYs for "Best Pop Duo/Group Performance". BTS is the biggest group in the world with the five number one albums in US, three of which were within a year. They have two RIAA platinum album certifications. They beat Michael Jackson's record and Beatles' record, they won top group awards at Billboard music award, American Music Awards, MTV EMA, People's Choice Awards, awards at VMAs, they performed at Grammy's, they gave speech at UN twice. They are the first act in history to earn the top 2 best selling albums on a year-end IFPI chart (pure sales). And there is just a few of their achievements. All seven members of BTS are very involved into creative process. Most of the songs are written by their rappers (RM, SUGA, J-Hope). RM is credited as songwriter in 171 songs, SUGA - 124, J-Hope - 112. RM debuted on Billboard Hot 100 Songwriters Chart at #3, Suga - at #9. But vocalists (Jin, Jimin, V, Jungkook) are participating in songwriting and composing as well. The members are also involved into producing. BTS do a lot of different genres: Hip Hop, R&B, Latin, Pop, EDM, Ballads, Rock, etc. Most of their songs touch serious topics such as mental health and social problems. That's why the age and gender of their fans are very diverse. Some suggestions for your reactions: BTS - "Black swan" MV. BTS - "On. Kinetic Manifesto Film: Come Prima" (they won "best pop" and "best choreography" at VMAs for this song). BTS - "Mic drop" MV. Their official MVs have CC in english so you can turn them on to understand what they are saying.

They do have a leader, RM, but he isn’t greater or more important than the rest of the members. Having a leader doesn’t necessarily mean anything in terms of power or skills (especially in kpop groups). It just means that RM has more responsibility than the other members. Like communicating between the group and their company (a.k.a. label) and rallying the group together when they get into fights.

Nice! Loved the reaction! Boy With Luv is a call back to an older song of theirs, Boy In Luv. The differences being the focus of their love has changed over the years. Rather than being young school boys (when Boy In Luv came out) wondering how to ask out a crush, they are now men who have love within themselves, for themselves and for ARMY who helped them get where they are now. Their song titles usually have an English name on top of their Korean name, mostly because a direct translation isn't likely to sound catchy. For example, with Boy With Luv the direct translation is 'A Poem for Small Things'. If you decide to do another video on this, I would suggest checking out On Kinetic Manifesto, Mic Drop, or Black Swan. If you're watching a music video from the bighit youtube channel, you can trust the closed captions! I would also recommend checking out some of their live performances! They have done all three of those songs on American talk shows. If you're curious, they will be performing at the Grammys this weekend, so be sure to tune in. Their live performances are... something else to put it lightly lol Great video! I look forward to watching more from you!

Jungkook is the one who started the “DNA” video and he is the “Main Vocalist” and “Center” of BTS. 💜 RM is the one in the white suit in “Boy With Luv” and he is the “Leader” of BTS. 😊💜💜💜

Sometimes I get a little upset that their most popular songs are literally the only ones more poppy in their discography lol but their discography is soooo diverse The true gems are on their b-sides, although they have great singles/title tracks too

- KPop mostly (not always) about sing, rap and dance. They dance seriously than boy band from US or Europe. BTS dances is one of the hardest in KPop. - BTS songs has deep meaning. You can trust cc in their official MV, because the Eng sub is from their company. - Chorus in KPop song frequently in English, so fans can sing together with the band. - Some MV has story, the other "just" dance. Please check another song: - Black Swan - Mic Drop - Dynamite. This is the first English song and the most popular one beside DNA and Boy with Love.

RM aka Namjoon is the leader of the group, but unlike western boy bands, the leader isn't the most popular one but a spokesperson and someone who is incharge of maintaining healthy relationship between the boys and between the boys and the company they are under. Even if RM is leader, all of them are equal. BTS = All 7 of them💜

In addition to the many great comments so far, I'll add a bit of BTS background to kick you off too. --BTS were underdogs. They clawed their way to where they are now. Their label, Big Hit, was tiny when BTS debuted in 2013, and so they didn't get much respect or recognition within Korean media because of media politics favoring the big labels. But they were innovative from the beginning with grassroots marketing through various online mediums, and that's what forged their strong fanbase. ARMY, especially those around from the beginning, can be fiercely protective because they had to be for so many years. --Aside from social media, they have reality shows where they go on vacations together, a weekly entertainment show called Run BTS where they play games together or do activities and just let loose with shenanigans, several official documentaries from their tours, endless behind the scenes videos called Bangtan Bombs that show things like making music videos, them being silly backstage, etc. All the bonus material (they literally release some kind of content almost daily throughout the year) is why fans get so hyped about how BTS can bring joy to your life. --BTS lyrics are almost always quite deep, even when a song might sound like a bop. Their mission from the beginning was to make music with depth about real life challenges that youth could relate to, including societal expectations, mental health, etc. They don't sing about partying, sex, very rarely swear (except in some of the rappers solo projects) etc., but rather focus on staying humble, relatable, positive, and motivational--even in their diss tracks! --For several years now they've partnered with UNICEF on a campaign called Love Myself to address youth bullying, violence, and self-esteem issues. They have an album trilogy called Love Yourself and a lot of inspiring songs on this topic. They're truly the world's best role models. That's scratching the surface, but it's a start! :-) Tell us what kind of music you like and we'll recommend songs from their super varied discography.

Since people already mentioned about subtitles, I won’t repeat it. I do want to mention is that BTS’ music is hip hop based but their songs are diverse. It covers many genres, which basically means there’s songs for what you’re in the mood for. They are at their best during live performances too. They can sing and dance so well live that some people were in denial at first. Can you please react to This is BTS/Introduction to BTS by xceleste? It’ll give you some a general overview of who they are.

BTS don't need to ask people to subscribe or check out their music on soundcloud.IFPI announced yesterday that BTS topped IFPI Global artist chart,global album all format chart and global album sales chart for 2020.In the top ten pure album sales they are at 1 with Map of the Soul 7.2 with BE (only released in November 2020 and cost £50) and 8 with Map of the Soul The Journey which is their second purely Japanese album.They are the FIRST ARTIST ever to hold the top two spots,and the last artist who had three albums in the top 10 was Michael Jackson in 2009.And Dynamite was at 10 in the singles charts,their only all English song which was no 1 on the Billboard 100.

You can turn on the closed captions. I recommend Mic Drop, On: Kinetic Manifesto and Black Swan.

Uh... there have been a lot of male groups (considered boy bands) that had major choreography. ???? Although BTS have now reset that bar extremely high lol

BTS is a K-pop(Korean Pop) band made up of seven members, three rappers (RM, Suga, and J-hope), and four vocalists (Jimin, Jin, Jungkook, and V). They all write, compose, and produce for all of their albums, and their most recent music video “Life goes on” was even directed by the youngest member, Jungkook. BTS stands for Bangtan Sonyeondan which translates to Bulletproof Boy Scouts but it also stands for Beyond the Scene. They are also known internationally as The Bangtan Boys. This name is incredibly meaningful because they said that it is their job to shield the youth of the world from the bullets that society rains down on them. They debuted in 2013 under Big Hit Entertainment, which is now Big Hit Labels, in Seoul, South Korea. It was originally supposed to be a Hip-hop group but the CEO of Big Hit, Bang "Hitman Bang" Shihyuk, later decided to debut them as an idol group. Every member has solo work separated from the group. You should definitely check out some of their solo work, it is incredible. They were told that they wouldn't amount to anything and that they were untalented their entire careers. There is no lead singer but there a leader who is in charge of leading the group and being the liaison between the group and the company. Rm or Kim Namjoon is the leader, a rapper, and a producer. Jin or Kim Seok Jin is a vocalist, the head visual, and the oldest. Suga or Min Yoongi is the main rapper and a producer. J-Hope or Jung Hoseok is the dance leader, a rapper, a sub-vocalist, and a producer. Jimin or Park Jimin is a lead dancer (he specializes in contemporary) and a vocalist. V or Kim Taehyung is a vocalist, visual, and dancer. Finally, we have Jungkook or Jeon Jungkook who is the main vocalist, dancer, sub rapper, center, and maknae(the youngest member). All seven members used to live in a single-bedroom apartment together, and even now after the extreme success, they have achieved they still live in a four-bedroom apartment and share rooms, even though most of them own their own apartments. The official roommates if you are curious are Jin and Suga, RM and V, and Jimin and J-Hope. Jungkook technically has his own room but he usually sleeps in one of the other member's beds. They say that it just doesn't feel right not being together and that they feel lonely without each other, Jin even compared the other members to his wallet and phone because going anywhere without them feels unnatural and makes him really nervous. They are all bonded through their hardships and are just a large family which could be partly because they were put together when they were teenagers. The oldest, Jin, being 18 and the youngest, Jungkook, being 13 when they first got together. Jin was 20 at debut and Jungkook was 15. To clarify BTS got together as a band about two years before they officially debuted. The older members literally raised the younger ones, they would take them to school, make them breakfast and dinner, help them with homework, etc. They attended Jungkook’s middle school and high school graduation. Along with Jimin and V’s high school and most of the other boys’ college graduations. In fact, Jimin and V(Taehyung) just graduated college with honors a few days ago. They grew up together and are a family in every way that matters. They almost never talk about the normal recycled romantic love and breakup cycle. Throughout all their songs they preach self-love, self-acceptance, female empowerment, mental health, and they also speak out against social injustices and so much more. They believe that lyrics are one of the most important parts of music and they strive to connect with all of their fans through their music and lyrics even if that means jeopardizing their careers and backlash from people in power. They even have a fictional storyline that goes through their music videos called the Bangtan Universe aka the BU. This storyline is very extensive and includes over 25 MVs over almost six years, two books, a webtoon, a mobile game, multiple short films, and they are even creating a tv drama called 'Youth'. Along with their storyline, every single one of their albums follows the phases of life that the band members are going through at the time. For example, their first album '2 Cool 4 Skool' and it was about school, schoolboy crushes, unfulfilled dreams, the expectations of adults, and social pressure on youth and at the time of this album they were all still in school whether that be middle school, high school, or college, and their most current album, “BE” is about the pandemic and how they are getting through it and giving hope that we will come out the other side of this better than we were before. They are also incredibly prolific. They have 9 studio albums, 3 single albums, 11 compilation albums, and 6 EPs. That includes 4 full Japanese albums, their native tongue is Korean. The total discography including solo works, collabs, and covers is over 300 songs. They just got nominated for their first Grammy for “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance” becoming the first Korean artist to even get nominated in the pop category. In 2019, they become the first-ever K-pop band to be invited to the Grammy’s and the first-ever K-pop band to present at the Grammy’s. They will also become the first-ever Korean artist to perform a solo stage at the Grammy's. They have also dominated the Billboard charts with three number ones in only three months becoming the first Korean artist to ever get a #1 on the charts. Their song "Life Goes On" was the first song in history sung primarily in Korean to ever top the Billboard charts. They also held on to the number one spot for two weeks straight being the first group since the Black-Eyed Peas to do that, while competing with songs like WAP for #1. They even held the number 1 and 2 spot for a while, being the first-ever music act in history to do that. Let's not forget that they have spoken at the UN general assembly twice. Once in 2018 for their LOVE MYSELF Campaign with UNICEF where they talked about the importance of self-love and acceptance and then again in 2020 to give hope to the world during the pandemic. While they are huge, I think it is important to mention that they are also some of the most humble people that you will ever meet. Jin, the oldest member, and a vocalist released a song called Abyss, for his 28th birthday, talking about how he feels there are people who more talented and deserving than him so he doesn’t feel that he deserves all of the praise that he is getting and it was eating him up inside. Dynamite is their only all English single to date but please don't let that deter you. They have touched millions of people with their music and have used their success to help others. They give millions and millions of dollars to various charities and inspire their fans, ARMY, to do the same. For example, they gave $1,000,000 to BLM, and within 24 hours of the announcement, ARMY matched their 1 million dollar donation. We have also built a hospital in a place in need as a birthday present to one of the members, The Jung Hoseok Hope Hospital in Anhui Province, China. We have also created and donated to over 300 different charities in the last two years using an organization called One in An ARMY which is a fan collective of volunteers around the globe that have set up a way for fans to make micro-donations every month and help nonprofits all over the world. They are not only talented but inspirational so please check them out a little more and thank you for giving BTS a chance and reacting with an open mind. P.S. SORRY OF THE NOVEL

I liked your reaction! Obviously, there's a lot of things you don't know yet and I think you have some sort of hesitance to listen to music in other languages, but I can see you're genuine. BTS drives me to be a better person and they have moved me with their lyrics and message. (Turn on the captions please! As long as they're not auto-generated, it's fine!) Please keep an open mind when reacting to more of their music. Also the "they don't seem to have a storyline" bit almost made me laugh. Like dude, you don't know what you're in for.

If something is not in english and you wish to understand, there is something called captions that you can easily turn on if available, and enjoy understanding

just noting that overall when they do collabs the artist they are collaborating with doesn't in most cases have like a huge huge part (unless it's like an another version or not part of their main albums) because they have to be able to also perform the song with only seven of them (BTS), like for example steve aoki did a remix, nicki minaj did a verse in another version, halsey was part of the chorus, but in all night that is not part of the main albums juice wrld is huge part of the song

Believe me at first it start with "i just want to know their name" and then you will fall to that purple hole and end up watch their mv, run bts ep, bantantv, live performance even their compilation video and fan reaction for hours EVERYDAY and you never out of that purple hole and end up being an army Like i did..

She had smaller parts in this music video because on tour and in their live performances all around the world. Halsey can't be with them for those performances. You can watch the boy with love live performance with Halsey on the 2019 billboard Music Awards .

So, when I first got into BTS, I really didn't care for DNA...the lyrics are beautiful, though, and the song has weirdly grown on me. Boy With Luv is still not my favorite...on that album, it is the only one I sometimes skip. I prefer their darker, deeper stuff and their ballads. Unfortunately some of their best songs aren't their title tracks and don't have music videos, so a lot of reactors never hear them. Of the title tracks that do have MV's, though, I echo those who suggested On, Black Swan, and Fake Love. Fake Love in particular is one of my favorites. Just.....please put captions on, lol. Their lyrics are pure poetry.

About the substitles you can trust them for the MVs :)

Bts is not just a group. They are my friends, my family, my mental doctor, my teachers. they have helped me to fight with my depression and i start to love myself. i have learned to love myself and im happy now. And you know Army is my family too, they are such humble and kindest people in the world. helping others and great community. Im the luckiest person in the world

You are gonna get hooked! Don't worry it happens to the best of us.. Can you do a reaction to their carpool karaoke? 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

You should definitely turn on the subtitles, for it is official. Their lyrics are deep in meaning, nothing related to romance nor fairy tale like vibe. If you want full English songs from BTS is Dynamite or most recent MTV unplugged "Fix You" cover

i- not everything has to do with english bruh-

DNA came out before Biebers Yucky song, I mean Yummy, so what are you going on about? Furthermore, turn on the dang CC's (all BTS official MV's have them) for English subtitles, yeah I said it!

They have a leader, but he doesn't front more or less than the other members, it basically just means he holds the most responsibility. He's like the medium between the label and the band. He also guides the others in many situations and because of the deep trust, the members follow without question. It's a unique dynamic for any westerner to witness, I think. I certainly didn't understand it when I first noticed it, I just thought Namjoon (the leader) was an arrogant ass. Now I understand that him taking all the pressure of making decisions allows the other members more freedom to do their job (which only works that way because the members have the utmost trust in him). I'm honestly so impressed with the leader, he juggles keeping up with the members and all his leader duties so well!! Does he even sleep??

The RU-vid CC actually are accurate as they are not derived from the auto-translate function. :) And yes, I would recommend Fake Love, ON, and Blood, Sweat, and Tears (for a storyline). Thank you!

I found it so funny how you said that the DNA dance is sort of like High school musical🤣, I would be going ooff of my head if this was a person who hates them or who has like watched them more than 3 times, however, we're all good. If you want to check some songs with AMAZING choreography, I suggest watching ON, Black Swan, Mic Drop (dance practice), Fire, Not today, Intro performance trailer and concept trailer. If you feel like you want to listen to songs that have beautiful meaning, I suggest, "Butterfly", "2!3!", "Magic shop", "Mikrokosmos" and "Love myself". Definitely put on subtitles that way you can see the lyrics to the songs. If you want an introduction to them watch, "Who is BTS" and "From nobodies to Legends", they are both very helpful videos. Hopefully you see this, and take this in.

So, if the language barrier is problematic for you, most of their MVs (music videos) have the option to turn on closed captions. Note, however, that sometimes the underlying wordplay and contextual "feel" gets lost in translation, and can come across as odd to Westerners like us. "Dynamite" is the only song of theirs that is all in English. And, FWIW, I believe that Big Hit provides the translations, so you're not relying on RU-vid's AI for that. (I could very easily be wrong on this, tho'.) TL;DR = You should turn on the captions. :) Also, in re: storyline, BTS is actually well-known for having story arcs that span across multiple albums. It's known as the BTU, or the Bangtan Universe. For instance, the first song you reacted to is part of the second trilogy, the Love Yourself storyline. The first album is about finding that love that seems to be destined/meant-to-be. The next album then addresses that perfect love falling apart. And the third album sends the message that one must love oneself before you can truly love another. (It comes down to self-acceptance and finding your own worth, and this kind of messaging is a big part of why BTS has such a loyal following; the music has quite literally changed lives, according to fans' testimonies.)

They dance like high school musical? man it's way beyond that~~Their choreography is hard.. especially their "On" choreo, you should check that out!!! My boys Jhope, Jimin, and Jungkook got god-tier techniques in dance. Jhope specializes in hip-hop, popping, house while Jimin does contemporary and popping. They can freestyle as well.

You're wrong. You won't get hate in the comments if u don't like it. You'll just get more recommendations according to the taste you showed. (Because BTS does literally everything) And even the people bothering you will get yelled at by other mature ARMYs lol. But only if you say it polietly like "hey its just not my type of music" or smth along those lines. But if u say smth like "they look gay" or "they're trash" or something rude.... Well, you better run. F a s t. No one can save you from pissed off ARMYs lol. Basically, just don't be disrespectful and you'll get love and support of the most powerful fandom in the world. Borahae 💜.

BTS and Green screen? What a joke 😂😂... It's ok though... most of the people thought it to be CGI who saw these videos for the first time.

Yes you can actually use the subs on their music videos. RM is the appointed leader for BTS. Kpop groups always have someone in the group that the company appoints as the leader of the group. They have a wide range of different style songs. Some I recommend are “Fake Love”/“War of Hormone” (which is an oldie but a goodie in my opinion)/“Not Today”/“Magic Shop” live with Eng sub please💜💜💜Welcome to BTS Army

English captions on RU-vid need to be differentiated as follows: 1. (English (auto-generated)) = NOT acurate and false because google is just generating random subs by listening to word 2. (English) = Accurate because the channel that uploaded the video also added the subtitles which means someone typed them out and translated everything so that is the difference :) hope this helps

You should react to black swan, along with the subtitles, that song really is a masterpiece :)

I recommend "Black Swan", "ON Kinetic Manifesto" and "Life Goes On" and of course all with captions because the lyrics are great!

2:11 BTS’s MV have English subtitles. Make sure to turn them on the next time. Kpop incorporates fashion, hairstyles, a lot of choreography dancing and if you watch closely they tell a story. 4:05 The guy that just said DNA, his name is RM he’s their leader. The one guy in the beginning is the youngest member. His name is JK and he’s the main vocalist. 5:37 They are doing the wave dance to the molecule of DNA. 11:53 BTS is singing about being in love with the little things in life. They’re happy and they’re enjoying life with their fans. 14:05 Boy w Luv is part 2 of Boy in Luv. You can check it out. BTS stands for Bulletproof Boys so the gun hand sign is BTS sign. If you watch closely to their introduction, You will see they put their finger hand sign up like a gun and introduce themselves.

React to The most beautiful life goes on: a story of BTs and you will know how bid they are!!!

Native english speakers acts like their language is the only language in the world. So annoying.

Story line you said? Well react to 'Blood sweat and tears' by BTS😉

Can you react to blackpink lovesick girls and more

I was about to comment to answer some questions but then I read the other comments and... yeah ARMY provides you well... Yeah. So BTS is well known for the choreography, those moves, yeah it's choreographed :) - And no, they're not anything like OneD. - And yeah those MVs (music videos) have subtitles, you CAN trust the subs - Yeah DNA is that term... - Nope, Boy With Love is still kpop - Although I'd rather say BTS Pop than kpop because, you know, they're beyond kpop Anyway...

Nice reaction please use subtitles next time

Please turn on sub's they are the base of the BTS song

almost every BTS music video will have english subtitles straight from the company themselves. they're the actual english lyrics as the band members intend them to be. so you typically don't have to worry about subs. as long as it doesn't say "auto-generated" you're good to go :))

As first reaction it was nice one👍I known that many had gave you recommendations in comment but personally if anyone ask me who is bts ? What l can try listen about Them l will not be able to answer especially if I don't know the music tastes of that person since bts in term of genre Theirs are Very divers :hip hop.. Pop..ballads ..RnB...Rap..acoustic... EDM.. so her is some advise to you : 1-for me you can't judge or know Bts by just listen 3 or 4 songs esp not just by most popular ones .or some MVS depending on RU-vid views No..,I would say IF you want to discover Bts seriously listen to 2 o 3 albums>like whole bts album with each title tracks( not just MVs )by order .l think it would be good experience in term of music productions vocals/rap but also in term lyrism Thiers albums are composed from several parts with mix of ;group ,sub units, solo members songs. All connected with each others with important concepts it's like a well-written novel having introduction, development, twists, and conclusion it shared a compelling story. With meaningful deep relatable messages Here is site were you can get some informations about bts Discography since 2013 :bts.fandom.com/wiki/Discography You also need to watch theirs live performances 💖 2-for language in theirs official MVS it fine you can turn eng cc but for other songs. Don't just look at .any lyrics videos or some website like genius lyrics .No .Cause there is sometimes wrong translation .that don't convey meaning when it come to Korean languages > do use :doolsetbangtan.wordpress.com when it come to bts lyrics for theirs group as well ad Thiers solo work > it best reference most accurate translations( there some explanation and info notes about Korean words play metaphors nd messages of songs) 3-there Are 7 talented passionate hardworking artists debuted in 2013 : 3 rappers producers , songwriters so there involved in making their music but also for other artists >they had theirs solos mixtapes + 4 vocalists( they also participate in co-producing writing. .sometimes editing..) >two of them had upcoming solo album +their are amazing dancers. ...as persons Thiers are so humble 4-their are loved by millions for many raisons but one of the main one it's cause They want their music to inspire change motivate people and spread positivity.,challenge societal stereotypes, they also tackle a lot of issues taboo that relate to anyone such as mental health, suicide, depression, addiction, parent abuse , anxiety, differences between the old and new young generation, corrupt , academic system nd teaching people about self love and self respect , self care. Social problems..that's why there fanbase is huge from different races ages genders ,Bts even their name have meaning "Bangtan "means to be resistant to bullets, so it means to block out stereotypes, criticisms, and expectations that aim on youth like bullets, to preserve the values and ideal of today’s generation. ,.. 5- you can watch some video intros about them :this is bts introduction part 1, kpop vs bts,Most beautiful life goes: story of bts ... You said in beginning it will be high quality videos cause of course they had a lots of money ...yes you right since Thiers are now one of the big artist in world but. .let me tell you 10 years ago when they debuted all of them(7) used to sleep in one bedroom to live in dorm like studio... Big hit Thiers label in past was considerate very small entrainment company. Close to bankruptcy ... nothing in front of what's called " big3" in Korea the three big labels.(Sm,Yg,Jyp) That rule have power in whole music entrainment industry since 90'> all artist.Kpop artists that were from those companies have 80% chance to be successful.while the ones from other labels have only 20% chance .>so bts background. ..rise . in the industry locally in Korea or internationally was really really differents Inspirational journey

If you look at these 2 mv's u might think they don't have a story line but in reality all of their mv's, live performances, notebooks, etc. Contribute to their very complex and interesting story line. There r some mv's that r more obviously part of a greater story but others r quite subtle. (English isn't my first language but I hope I explained it well)

they have a leader, but he's more of an actual team leader rather than a justin timberlake or a harry styles. think of it more like a soccer or football team. they have a captain, but he's not always recognised as MVP. in most of their songs, the distribution of lines and time as front and center is pretty equal, and they treat each other as equals rather than there being one guy who stands out as the "lead".

to know more about them react to black swan, mic drop, ON ,spring day(queen of bts songs and see its explanation). as you go through their songs they are way more versatile then you might have imagined. they also do their solo mixtapes . and pls on the captions ,you will know the power of their lyrics . RM,SUGA ,j hope the band members write , produce almost their every song

I still don't know which way Jimin turned at the end of boy with luv lol

BTS backstory is very inspirational if you get to know everything they've been through. BTS started formation in 2010 with its leader RM and the final member Jimin joined in 2012. BTS officially debuted as a group in June 2013. There are 7 members (3 rappers and 4 vocalists). Jin age 28 vocalist, Suga age 28 rapper, J-Hope age 27 rapper, RM age 26 rapper and leader, Jimin age 25 vocalist, V age 25 vocalist, and Jungkook age 23 vocalist. If you really want to know BTS story watch the Most Beautiful Life Goes On A story of BTS by the channel the asian theory. The video is kind of long but ARMY will watch anything no matter how long. But it tells you how BTS came together and how they got to where they are today. They are nominated for a grammy and will perform their first solo stage for the grammys this sunday. I really hope they win. BTS have only 1 song completely in english which is Dynamite. It was their first number 1 on the billboard hot 100 and it broke the record of the most viewed video on youtube in 24 hours with 101.1 million views. Also they recently were on MTV unplugged and performed Fix You by Coldplay which is obviously all english and their cover of it was beautiful. Also keep in mind only RM speaks english fluently in the group and he learned english by watching the show Friends. Even if you don't like BTS music they are still amazing human beings. They are so humble, kind, funny, smart, and charitable. Hope you will react to more BTS in the future. And don't be afraid to ask questions. All BTS fans want is for reactors to be open minded and respectful because so many aren't, so thank you for being both.

*No storyline here* *Wait till you ACTUALLY* * know the storyline*

Thank you for being respectful :) would love to see you react to there more hip hop stuff and see them from a different perspective 💜

Boy With luv also has a lot of Singing in the Rain references. Their songs and videos are meaty and not the usual fluff we are used to even if sometimes the happy colors and sets may make you think they aren't deep.

turn on the captions

RM ( KIM NAMJOON) Rapper Leader Producer The tallest SUGA ( MIN YOONGI) Rapper Producer Song writer JHOPE ( JUNG HOSEOK) Dance leader Rapper Energy ball JUNGKOOK ( JEON JUNGKOOK) Vocalist The youngest Dancer Can rap JIMIN ( PARK JIMIN) Vocalist Dancer The shortest V ( KIM TAEHYUNG) Vocalist Dancer 2. Handsome man in the world JIN ( KIM SEOKJIN) Vocalist The oldest WWH (World Wild Handsome)

Jungkook as the leader would be so chaotic-

You talk too much

BTS had only one English song, it’s Dynamite.

PLEASE REACT TO BTS MMA 2019💜😢 please, please, please..............

I feel like KPOP just takes a bit of modern pop music from america and films videos like it was an NSYNC or Backstreet Boys video with a little higher budget.

At your first video DNA, you mentioned they had the money to spend, at that time they didn't. They weren't as famous globally as they are now during that video. DNA is DNA in any language. It's a scientific word. You can mention the West system but comparisons end after you say "we have boy bands and they are a boy band." Much of what they do and how they do it is very different from the West. DNA is a combination of practical and cgi. That isn't something they usually do, they use practical as much as possible. There are two of their videos that have a lot of cgi and that's Idol and Dynamite. All of their music except for Dynamite is Korean with hints of English. Dynamite was a special case because of covid. Boy With Love is a "sequel" to one of their older songs Boy In Luv. Actually the story is their journey and how because of their fandom they are Boys With Luv and the video was done as a tribute to Singin' In The Rain. I don't understand why you would think they would have a scroll at the end of their video or a shoutout about soundcloud?

Lmao 🤣🤣 awwww welcome to the BTS rabbit hole!! That comment about DNA not having a storyline....... Just wait!!! BTS storylines will have you doing research like you're trying to get a PhD in BTS!!!!🤣🤣🤣 ARMY'S am i wrong?!?💜🤣💜 Enjoy your journey and pace yourself!!! It's going to be a lot to take in, process and understand with only knowing western culture!!! As a 6 yr strong OT7 ARMY from Houston, TX, I wish you godspeed!! Have fun!! Purple you! 💜 😁👍🏼
