REACTING TO BTS | War of Hormone/ I Need U/ HYYH Prologue/ RUN MV | DG REACTS 

EDIT - REACTION TO I NEED U ORIGINAL VER. CAN BE FOUND HERE - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-egnlSa0JY3E.htmlsi=4E6rXDEFxgOXB84p ** I just wanted to note that I have recorded a reaction to I Need U (Original Ver) today and I will be releasing it over the weekend, it will also include a fairly long discussion of the story :) ** Hope you guys enjoy episode 3 of Throwback BTS 😊

Your analysis after the "Run" MV was *chef's kiss* - I love seeing people theorize or add meaningful insight to the symbolism in this series of music videos. Man, the HYYH era was just so magical, depressing, and nostalgic and I don't think any group has come close to this level of being both angsty but realistic in showing young people trying to hold onto their youth.

I love War of Hormones. I think it is a shame that silly people took offense to it because what BTS was singing about was how we all feel when going through puberty--boys and girls. It is a normal phase of life. I have heard songs that are extremely vulgar and really do degrade women so why was this song being attacked? Of course Korea has a different view on things from the USA. Here in America, this song was mild and a part of growing up.

Welcome to the Story Line!!! Honestly, it's one of the most gorgeous visual stories I've ever seen. The members' acting is chef's kiss. The story is mostly visual, so stay sharp!!!! Enjoy! It's a very very deeply emotional and symbolic story. I know you'll love it! I still cry when I watch the Prologue and Highlights!!!!

I cannot hear Butterfly now, after the Busan final concert without absolutely bawling my eyes out. 😭

This was always my favorite BTS universe period. Jin nearly loses his soul trying to rescue them all out of their situations. He eventually realizes that they can save each other, it's not on any one member. And they save him from despair as well.

The photos in both Prologue and Run change, that's why Jin's expression changes when looking at it.

Now that you have watched all of these older MVs, you need to go back and watch the Yet To Come MV so you can find all the Easter Eggs you may have missed the first time!

HYYH was what made me a fan of BTS in 2015. From a casual listener since their debut, The Most Beautiful Moment in Life part 1 came on my bday and the whole music from HYYH era is my favourite of BTS. It is so nice to reminiscence the story from the eyes of someone seeing it for the first time and you caught so many details already (as always your smartness and depthness give a fair interpretation to it).

Man... watching him trying to figure out these MVs make me remember how we went all insane trying to figure it out and coming with all these crazy theories. It's entertaining 😂 PS. There many scene that are parallel to Spring Day MV, watch that again after watching this

YESSS I need u and Run are absolutely two of their best songs, not title tracks, best songs period. It's a vibe we don't get anymore after 2018.

BU made me fall in love with BTS more. Like it's wounded me so much and each and every single characters the boys portrayed have a special place in my heart. Especially Jin's character in the whole story. I really enjoyed your reaction as I always do with your videos. Thank you again!♡

Well in the Prologue,one of their member who has killed his father who's abusing his sister,to relieve his guilt, he approached his Hyungs to be able to lighten his heavy heart.But inspite of that still suicidal (by jumping to the sea) prevail in front of his beloved Hyungs!!!

As a french woman I cry everytime someone skip "housse of card" especialy this version with Edith Piaf on it. But by the way very good reaction

oh I'm so happy to see you react to these songs. Watching the HYYH mv's again besides someone who's seeing them for the first time brings back so many memories, it made me a little emotional. BTS was the group that introduced me to kpop and I remember being OBSESSED with the hyyh "world", I would watch the Run mv almost everyday to the point of dreaming about it lol . Love the commentary as always, amazing observations !

If you really wants to dive in, you have to watch the original 18+ version of "I Need U" MV the one you watched have missed a lot of what happened.

Im so happy for you reacting to this, Run is the most significant and meaningful song for me, it always brought me to tears and I've been hoping this reaction from you. Many people focus on partying and having "fun" of the video and just ignore the title RUN itself, but I knew that your analysis will be on point. idk, maybe I'm too picky because it evokes a hard moment in my life.

oh i am so excited for you to watch wings and the love yourself stories, the bangtan storyline was SO interesting and i was always so sad they never really picked it up again! great analysis as always:)

In the beginning of “Run” that’s V falling backwards into the water. Only Mr. never flinch V could have done that scene. This trilogy made so many become fans. So interesting it created so many theories about it. Also, that is the intro for their song “House of Cards” playing during the credits of the Prologue. Butterfly became my favorite song after that Prologue.

Sometimes being honest about how teenage boys feel and view things can be unfairly scrutinized. As a female who grew up with three brothers and no sisters I have an understanding on what puberty for boys was like. I was really shocked at the fact that war of hormones got backlash. The song and video was a fair representation of what some teenage boys are going through in their daily lives. It is a war of hormones and people shouldn’t be so critical. It’s an honest POV from a male perspective. 👍👍✌️🐯👑🐻💜♥️💜♥️💜

I think the I need you video you watched is a shorter version The longer one contains more of the individuals separate stories … for more understanding of the BU you should watch that The Polaroid at the end of prologue is a sort of key to the BU .. when it was taken both jin and (I think) RM were in the picture? Anyway it’s a big can of worms lol Next stop on stage prologue the wings short films?

Actually at the end of HYYH prologue, Jin sees the polaroid and he gets surprised and then sad because Yoongi was actually behind him in the photo but somehow his face disappeared later! It's a hint about the story which I'm not spoiling for you. Also, since you mentioned TXT, BU and TU are in fact related to each other officially!

Oh yes, definitely need to do the long version of I need you. Ive been waiting almost 3 years for you to start the BU! To hear your interpretation. Now we're here!

after all these years watching and rewatching all of those mvs and prologues and all, I guess we were left with a story with no end? sometimes? like, I really think you get the meanings of scenes and sayings and actions that show us it was just some guys not wanting to say goodbye to their youth, but at the same time, what happened with all of them? we get it they only found happiness when they were together, and it was fun at the beginning but, just as you said, seokjin was starting to point some things? he is the only one who looks at the camera directly, and I think he's the one who snap out of it first because hes sometimes left out like, you see Taehyung and Namjoon interaction; Jungkook and Yoongi interaction; Hoseok and Jimin interaction, and what about Seokjin? is he "alone" because he took a look at the outside first? I have so many doubts 😭 (and also can see now why people see it do many different ways) at the same time, I'm really anxious to see your reaction to I need u the original/complete version, the run japanese version, young forever mv and the solos videos from wings era and love yourself highlight reels, you will enjoy it a lot and your mind will EXPLODE I PROMISE YOU (can't remember if you already enjoyed it, but if you don't, I totally recommend you all of this, they are so talented!!!! sorry if my English don't make any sense at some point, but Ill keep telling you to enjoy all of these, you will not regret it! love your work a lot, and am always looking forward to it ❤

The best era in kpop

You're just gonna spoil us all with longer BTS vids 😏🖤🥀

I really love that you finally came through the BU 😍😍 it's been a long way and you're actually kinda getting everything right so I love that ❤❤ Btw the I Need You MV you just watched is the short version for the original one. If you want to know more about their individual stories shown in the MV you better watch the full length one. It's more beautiful and tragic than the short ver. Hope you see it 😊

15:39 i only just started this but as always, i appreciate your thoughts. I like how (unlike other male reactors), instead of saying "this isnt objectifying", & subsequently saying "people are too sensitive" , you just analyzed it, and explained it in a good way. They did express, albeit in a slightly objectifying way, what a young person feels during puberty. And not just men lol, women & other genders feel it too. I personally dont find this song objectionable, but i wont tell others how to feel. And i agree, BTS wouldn't intentionally offend people, even back then when they were kids. I think it shows namjoons maturity & empathy that he took the complaints seriously & instead of brushing them aside he did something about it. Gotta respect that you know? Its rare in artists lately. I love this song, its catchy & fun. Cinematography is good too. If you watch close when yoongi is on jk's shoulders, he rises up in the air as he raps about his testosterone rising haha. Maybe its because im high but i find that really amusing rn lol. Also apologies if my response isnt clear, the edible kicked in midway through & yeah. 💜 i may or may not add to this as i keep watching I havent commented in like, a year lol, i hope youre doing well 😊 💜 Eta: you watched the short version of run, theres an 18+ version where Tae hits his dad with a bottle then stabs him with it. Its really powerful. (This is part of the storyline, it was his dad beating up his sister) its yoongi lighting the lighter, he is associated with fire in this. Thats not a spoiler btw. And you did well on the analysis of this. I always enjoy & appreciate your breakdowns of mv's/lyrics 💜 45:10 when the photo was taken there were 2 people in the photos, when jin looked at the end there was one. Good job disecting these

Love your analysis. So observant. The ‘I Need You’ MV gives me a strong vibe of classic Hong Kong Movies. It’s the mood and melancholic atmosphere.

42:54 the thing is when Namjoon took that polaroid, Yoongi was posing behind Jin too, but now he disappeared which confuses and worries Jin and shows the glimpse of the whole following brain-melting BU lore. as well as on this 56:12 polaroid Jin is not present

Thank you. Sat through the whole reaction. It's a pleasure to watch reactors who came later, enjoying BTS rookie music and realizing how NON rookie they were. RM The people attacking RM for the song were antis and kpoppies. BTS had to face roadblocks and inhumane attacks when they realised an underdog group was doing better than the established 3 labels who has media in their pocket, even today. So RM being weaker, apologized. There are songs by other groups . In his recent controversy about listening to bad religion he once again faced attacks, but this time he went on live and declared he wasn't apologising. In short he said it's not like those days when his thoughts were twisted as now.

I liked them before, but when I saw the videos and the webtoon, I was done for. Seeing them in such terrible settings and also so relatable is rough.

gran analisis de RUN, de verdad

Welcome to the BTS story line 💜

a melhor era do bts

I LOVE IT😭😭😭😭

Analysis “awake by jin” please

War of Hormone....that one STILL pisses me off to this day. It was one, single, mistranslated line. And the backlash wasn't from ARMY...it was from the haters/anti's. Mistranslation: "Women are equations. Men just do them." Closer: "Women are equations. Men just solve them." In other words...what EVERYONE goes through in school...trying to "figure each other out" once we grow up and start looking for a date. The thing is, "do" and "solve" are often used interchangeably in math classes around the world, anyway. So, really, even the mistranslation wasn't "wrong" or "bad"...it was just...haters looking for ANY reason to tear them down. I still wish RM hadn't apologized. He did nothing wrong in the first place! He shouldn't have had to.

In War of Hormone people were 💩 on them because of mistranslated lyrics. But in my opinion they just wanted to 💩on them because it's BTS. They were attacked for the stupid reasons all the time. People are just hateful.

Ummm V... I Need U..... Who's gonna spill them beans? Also.. DG, you have GOT to get into the BU.. U just have to! 💜 Just finished the video lol. And yes, you will have a field day with the BU. Specially because it is open ended. It gets extremely complicated and I am at a point where I believe Every theory is correct. And the MV that took me to this conclusion was "Film Out" Oh dude! Please! Do a deep dive into the BU! 💜 I love your perspective!

Hi, I am back. Good reaction, ty. Jimin bias, Suga wrecker and OT7. BTS and staff are very good in making catchy songs. Sadly they don't perform this one no more. It got too much controversy when it came out. The MV makes me blush bad so I try to avoid watching it. =0p And who else but RM / BTS goes and hires feminist's professors to check song lyrics. I mean come on!!! Respect! War of Hormone has some mild lyrics regarding teenage boys reactions/feelings towards girls and that set off a storm with the haters. Since then they have never sang 'love songs' like those in the West! Hugs. -2019 Army NY USA💜 @gwenpride5631 said on 5/31/23 The song that was allegedly misogynistic was War of Hormone. It is satire about teenage boys battling their hormones. It isn't misogynistic at all, and a lot of what people wanted to say was misogyny, was because of mistranslation. Also, a lot of it was just people grasping at straws to try and stop BTS from succeeding. Good reaction, ty. Yes, love I Need U. It's a fav. THE MV IS PART OF THEIR HIDDEN BU STORYLINE IN SOME OF THEIR SONGS. So it's a lot. But they won their 1st award after this song. This story is deep complex and heartbreaking. This MV depicts suicide, overdose, and the hardships of life. It shows that when they are together they are happy and have no worries. But each one is hiding baggage and are suffering alone. This song resonated with fans and this story is why BTS are the best. It came out in 2015. Suga was the one on the bed and burned the room. V killed his dad who was hurting his sis. So we got physical abuse. JK did not fight back because he wanted the pain. They were beating up JK because he bumped into them. He is in pain because he lost his friend. Suga killed himself in the fire. Jimin is depressed and tried to kill himself by drowning in the tub. Hobi overdosed. RM is upset because he lost his friends and is alone. Jin is really important in the story and not spoiling... =0p So BTS never sings about girls. Not really. In this case girl means friend. Oh yes JK did get hit by a car. Love the song its a banger. But oh boy is the MV complex and deep. This song got them more notice in US and Korea. They won their 1st award for this song. This was huge! They really let the cat out of the bag with this story. Glad u liked the song. =0] ᴊɪɴɪᴍɪɴʀᴏʟʟꜱ said on 11/27/21; I'm saying this again so that you don't forget the order of the BU universe!! . One of the first things fans learn about BTS is they don't mess around when it comes to their music videos. Each of the group's visuals is stunning, and they never fail to leave the viewer thinking about its possible meaning behind it. As new fans start to piece together BTS' music videos, they begin to realize that many of them actually connect. The overarching storyline is known as the Bangtan Universe(BU), and it exists not just in BTS' visuals, but in their webtoons and short stories as well. Since it can get pretty complicated, here's every BTS video that's in the Bangtan Universe. . To summarize, the BU involves a fictional storyline that has all the BTS members playing their own character. These characters have their own backstory, but they all connect in some way. If you see certain scenes or symbols repeating in BTS' music videos, that's because fans concluded the story involves some very shocking stuff that I ain't spoiling, you have to figure the story out yourself😂. It can be difficult trying to differentiate which videos are part of the BU, but according to fans, those that belong to this world will have the words "BU content certified by Big Hit Entertainment" at the bottom of the video's description. However, just because some videos don't have it, doesn't mean they're not connected. According to fans, here's every BTS video that's in the BU. THE BU UNIVERSE VIDEOS IN ORDER THAT YOU HAVE TO REACT TO- . 1. "I Need U" MV (original version) 2. HYYH On Stage: Prologue 3. "Run" MV 4. "I Need U" MV (Japanese version) [its not really necessary to watch this but if you wanna get more details i guess you can watch it.] 5. "Run" MV (Japanese version) [this is also not necessary unless u want more details] 6. Epilogue: Young Forever 7. Wings short films {1.Begin, 2.Lie, 3.Stigma, 4.First Love, 5.Reflection, 6.Mama, 7.Awake} 8. "Blood Sweat &Tears" MV 9. "Blood Swear &Tears" MV (Japanese version) [its necessary this time.] 10. Love Yourself Highlight Reels 11. Euphoria: Theme Of Love Yourself Wonder 12. "Fake Love" teasers 13. "Fake Love" MV (Extended version) 14. Jin's "Epiphany" 15. "Film out" MV [BTS' "Film Out" doesn't have anything about the BU listed in its video description, but ARMYs are convinced it's still part of the group's fictional world. Since it makes many references toward their "Fake Love" MV, fans think "Film Out" takes place in an alternate universe, which could explain its connection to the rest of BTS' visuals without being directly involved in the BU] After watching all of these and making your own theories you must wanna know the whole real story right? Then you should watch the whole storyline summary + explained by xCeleste. [Watch the recent one] link- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2-DEu3ZJtEU.html Saladita12 said on 8/23/22 When RM wrote the lyrics he wrote "I need u friend", but if you sing it like that it doesn't sound good, so he changed it to "I need u girl", but the real meaning is that I need u friend, so it's a breakup song and at the same time it fits into the story they're doing. So there's a thing called BTS Universe. It's a storyline. You need to watch all the MV's in order to understand it and "I NEED U" is the first part of the storyline. It's almost like a puzzle but lemme tell you it will blow your mind. The storyline itself is very deep and YES it includes Fake Love! RM - works in a gas station, the clients treat him like shit (throwing money on the ground instead of giving it to him, etc) and imagery of him smoking. Jin - in a room alone, the flower petals start burning, he is a very important character in the storyline. (All the MVs under the same storyline can be found by looking at the description of the videos, they are marked with "BU content certified by Big Hit Entertainment"). Suga - in a motel, missing someone (scene in the bed), buys gasoline and burns the room with himself inside (suicide). J-Hope - is sick and needs meds (apparently suffers from narcolepsy, he actually has munchausen’s syndrome), but abuses the drugs and passes out in the sidewalk of a road from an overdose Jimin - in the bathtub burning a photo, he seems in distress and scared, tries to drown himself V - catches his dad (the dad is the alcoholic one, not V) abusing his sister, in anger and adrenaline attacks his dad and accidentally kills him Jungkook - gets into street fights, seems to not care about anything (depression), ends up being hit by a car at the end.
