A little spoiler : (there are connections between this album and map of the soul persona) girl I love you so that's why l'm warning you r n Hope u ready 😂😂💜
"Tomorrow" and "Jump" are first BTS songs, in which SUGA is main songwriter and producer, both were created by him while he was still in high school/during their trainee days
Min Yoongi is genius fot creating Tomorrow, especially considering the fact he was high school student when he made it. It is my all-time favourite song. Yoongi himself is very proud of it till this days and the members call it "Yoongi's masterpiece" (they call this way all songs produced by him😂)
Tae's voice in this album is just everything. Especially in Jump🔥 I like how both Tomorrow and Jump are produced by SUGA, but they are so different. Since the beginning you can see how versatile he is
Some ICONIC dance practices “Baepsae” “Go Go” “21st century girl” “War of hormone” “War of hormone (halloween version)” “Just one day” “Embarrassed (2015 FESTA special choreography)”
AHHHH Boy in Luv was one of the first songs I fell in love with during this era after finding BTS. To this day, it's still in my top faves. You won't be ready for Dark and Wild!
Regardless of the "Bad boy" image in the video, if you watch the behind the scenes Jin apologizes to the girl every time he has to push her, that's so sweet. Sweet in the sense that I am amused by the contrast of the video with the real life. 😅
Not army anymore, but I will never get over this album. Actually, I will never get over BTS hahaha they're great and I'm deeply in love with their older albums.
Really you are the best person I am sad on some reason but when I watch this you make my every sec thankyou so much and I am smiling now ❤️ shout out for Caitlin ❤️ lots of love 💕
This was my first BTS CD. I love their adorable laughter on track #3 - it always starts my day with a smile. Cypher Pt. 2 ~ SUGA rapping a bazillion words a second (also with the adorable laughter at the end). Spine Breaker & Jump ~ still favorites in 2021.
I love the way you use all the resources, your comments in deciphering the lyrics, your excitement!!!!! Thank you because that really helps me to get into songs deeply and reminisce.....thx girl...do more albums !!!!!!
Going through all your BTS album reviews and I'm having so much fun. This is such a nostalgia trip. I remember how giddy I felt listening to them for the first time. It so funny seeing you get hyped up for them. I have tears just thinking about how I would listen to their albums on repeat, in the middle of the night, full blast and how much I've grown since then. Thank you for this really Caitlin. :)
"Boy in Luv" was the first song of BTS that I listened to and I was Like a fish following the bait...then "Just One Day" MV came out and I kid you not.... like 5 seconds in, I shut down my computer and walked away because I could not handle. It took me 3 days to gather the courage to watch it again. I TOOK THE BAIT AND THE FISH HOOK WENT STRAIGHT THROUGH MY HEART. "Just one day" is my all time fav BTS song.
i called taehyung 'punkin' during this era because of his orange hair😭 it seems like forever ago and five minutes ago at the same time😭 i will honestly never be over just one day. wait til you see the dance practices! there's a normal one that shows the choreo really well, and then there's the 'appeal version' where they let chaotic!bangtan show, it's hilarious lol. i had so much to say while i was watching but now i just want to go watch part 2 🏃♀️💨
“What sound is this?” 8 years later and i still say this😂 it’s so fun hearing new music from them cause you never know what you’re going to get from them. Your reactions to everything was literally me when i first watched mv’s/listened to their discography! I love it lol i feel like i’m reliving those happy moments.
Boy in luv is my first song i heard and seen from bts and i am happy i could see the that sparks in your eyes like how i did to me. i love that MV still. i am happy you enjoyed it caitlin
Boy in Luv is my favorite and my most important song of all. You know why, because I got to know them with this. It‘s funny how off all the kpop group my ult was BTS in 2014. They were many other popular group at that time but BTS were since then my ult till now. Can‘t believe that they blew up so much. So proud of them💜💜💜 My bias is JK since 2014, he really grew up so well.❤️❤️
Hi dear, it’s 1:00 am in here and I’m only at the end of Boy in luv MV… I’ll watch the rest tomorrow. But already, I can say that you are killing me once more ! Watching you discovering these songs I like so much, going in depth through the meanings, you sharing your interpretation and feelings, I LOVE that. Yep this intro is crazy. And when you talk about them connecting there songs together, YOU ARE SO RIGHT. Going through the albums like that you will understand so many things…. And like I told you on twt, every single album will wreck you. Really. You’re never prepared. And yeah… dark and wild… and all the others… love this journey by your side. See you tomorrow Caity. Big hugs ! 🤗
AhHHH!!! Yay you listened to this album!! I absolutely loved your reactions to the songs and MVs!! AND when you got the belt out during Just One Day I couldn't help but laugh!!😭 Please your reactions are so relatable! 💞
Skool Luv Affair will always be special to me cuz it's the era when I officially became an ARMY. 'Just One Day' will forever be my favourite song, l remember I'd listened to it every night before going to sleep (their voices are freaking lullaby). And I still remember I tried learning Boy In Luv & Just One Day dance lol. ANW, hi Caitlin! Just discovered your channel, I seriously love seeing your reaction (especially when the belt came out HAHA I'm wheezing). ISTG my watched history is full of you like girl.. your reaction is so relatable & entertaining!
- Boy In Luv - I always considered the background of this song to be that the focus girl in the song was "nice" to all the boys (light flirtations, eyelash fluttering, hair tossing, compliments, etc - nothing really bad, just teenage school kid things), and had them all confused and wanting to know which one of them she REALLY liked, and, to save the group from jealousy and fighting with each other, Jin dragged her in to get her to finally say who she really wants ("say what you want, say what you want") and end the debate - but each boy had a chance to plead their case before she made her final decision - while it may seem like manhandling to western audiences, the grabbing the wrist and dragging thing is/was considered a very forward, but masculine/romantic move by Korean standards - it only became an issue years later, when BTS started winning awards, and antis started looking for any and every little thing to use as ammunition against them - ARMY should not fall for that and give antis the fuel to keep it up - BTS didn't make the song for western audiences, they had no idea as rookies how huge they would get - those songs were made for Korean audiences, for whom those kinds of actions, while aggressive, at the time, they were still socially acceptable behavior - and before western audiences whine, remember - you lot absolutely LOVED 50 Shades of Grey, so let's not be hypocrites - "eat you up"/"bite you" - yes, in English to the western ear, those phrases sound violent, aggressive, and more than a bit cringey - but remember, when translating words, ESPECIALLY when translating phrases and figures of speech, they DO tend to be rather awkward, and often mean something completely different than what you think it does - as an example (and sorry for the foul language, but this is too good an example), the word "motherfucker" - in English, it simply sounds like aggressive and strong language/vulgarity - but if you break that word down, and then translate it to another language, I guarantee, the speakers of that other language would look at YOU as though you were weird and creepy - when it comes to foul language and figures of speech, you just need to accept that different cultures have different -isms and that's just the way it is - you can't really be all weirded out at other people's figures of speech, when your own is fairly questionable as well - just think of all the weird sayings there are in your own culture, and then how strange they would sound translated into another language - geosigi - for me, it is kinda like when an English speaking person says things like "thing-of-majig" or "thingy" - it's a catchall word to use when you can't think of the specific word for something, so it takes on various meanings and usages - Where You From - the premise of the song is the boys hanging out, seeing a pretty girl they all like, and they all approach her, trying to impress her, but, at the same time, trying to downplay the other boys competing for her attention - it's meant to be a funny little "battle for her love" kind of situation xD - Just One Day - during promotions and award shows, Yoongi's appendix burst and they had to rush him into the hospital for surgery - the boys continued their appearances while Yoongi watched from his hospital bed - he wrote his lyrics to this song while laying in his bed, imagining what he'd want to do if he only had one day left to live - also, as a personal note, I remember hearing that Namjoon had a girlfriend, with whom he broke up right before debut (he's said he had a girlfriend, but I don't know if anyone actually knows exactly WHEN they broke up, just that it did happen prior to debut), and, based on his lines in this song, sometimes I think it MIGHT be about her, though we never know, it could just be a hypothetical situation that he wrote about for the context of the song
This is one of my top 3 BTS projects. Skool Luv Affir is amazing especially when you considering these guys were so young and they were giving such high level of work. To this day Skool Luv Affir performances are still good
I love your reaction and I was waiting for your reaction at the end of the Just one day. That is one of my favorite songs and I got goosebumps when RM said please stay with me.😆
just have to say this before i get more into the vid and forget. i think choosing to do the mvs with the album reaction is great! less insufferable waiting time for us to see your reaction to them too not just the tracks themselves. so yes thank you!
Just hearing you reacting to the intro of this I’m excited to hear you react to MOTS 7 Album Intro! Boy seeing RM with the undercut at Muster & in this MV ahh my bias I can’t!! I love this because The Hip-hop was what I like when I was in middle school & the sound of it. Had no idea about most of the song lyrics boy their all smooth & romantic
Love your reactions so much!! This album is definitely my favorite from the school trilogy. Also if you ever have the time and are up for some compilation videos, I highly recommend the bts on vlive series from Fandoms Unite. They have videos for namjoon, hobi, yoongi, tae, jimin and jungkook (for some reason I don't think they have one for Jin :(((() They don't really have crack editing and they're just really funny. I'd love to see you react to them 💜💜💜
nah boy in luv was pretty popular in korea too! I remember rm talking about their early discography and he said no more dream was a good debut, n.o. didn’t receive much attention, then boy in luv did really good, then danger didn’t do that good, and then i need u hit no.1! I remember a group of boys performing the song for the school talent show back in 2016. That was probably one of the first songs i’ve heard of bts lol. Also, the song kinda represents the typical love trope of a bad boy who’s only sweet towards the girl and would do anything for her while the girl’s the only one who has the guts to tease him and gets flustered at the boy’s confession of undying love - the stuff that was real popular back in 2014 (at least in korea - u could see it well often in kdramas) you know with all that wall-slam kiss and stuff lol
