[STREET INT.] What do Koreans think of BTS? (2019) 

BTS is also the 1st korean who won BB top Duo/Group 2019 🎉

It’s so frustrating that they still don’t recognise why bts are so popular globally. BECAUSE OF THEIR MUSIC!!!!LYRICS!!! HONESTLY!!!

You now what the funniest thing is... When BTS first debuted a lot of koreans called them ugly and much more but now that they are famous it's suddenly because of the visuals. I think it is time for some people to learn that not every country is so obsessed with visuals. The reason why so many people from different countries, with different religions, ages and sexualitys love BTS is because of their Self written and produced songs that so many people can relate too

"Before BTS, the image of K-pop was very different." That's true man💜

Here I am struggling to learn the lyrics because they are 99% in Korean and that guy is just like "they are popular because the songs are mostly in English, right?". Do you even Bangtan, bro?

“The songs are mostly in english” bro we wish

People: They like them for their looks ARMY: you know nothing

As a Korean army, I'm telling you, although Koreans speak the same language as BTS, they don't go through the deep level of lyrics, they look at the outer part only. Such as appearance, success, dance skills. Especially with the success; they usually don't thank them or see through what or how they have come up till here. They just want more. So if BTS does one mistake, or don't break the records, they insult them. I really want Koreans to know how much tribulations they had gone through to do all that. Please don't take pressure BTS! I 💜 you.

I can't believe that koreans don't know why the world loves BTS, it's coz their *AMAZING MESSAGES* in their music !! Come on ,I'm ARMY from Perú ,29 years old, and i speak spanish, but the language barrier isnt a problem to understand and enjoy great music, so if u are korean ,u must be really proud of BTS *BTS PAVED THE WAY!!* (Sorry for my english)

I admire *BTS* for being humble despite of their huge success ❣️

It's frustrating to see how the world treats BTS like kings but Koreans don't even realize how Korea is getting benefit because of BTS and not even k-media treats them right.

5:33 'They amazed the world, now it's time to amaze the universe' God, this seriously gave me goosebumps. I didn't expect that🤗💜

the korean people really dont know why we love bts they say because they good looking and from dance and what a lot of lyrics in english lolll actually we love bts because of their humble and massege and because of their clean heart not because they good looking😑😑😕 and the end was so cute😍😍

Normal people: BTS fighting ARMYs : BTS borahae This is how ARMYs love BTS and identity their existence 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 #armys #borahae #BTS

People out there still calling Namjoon Rap Monster...I'M--

5:28 the cutest girl! "they amazed the world, now it's time to amaze the universe" YES!!!! LET'S GO 💜💜💜💜💜💜

5:07 are you guys serious I AM LEARNING KOREAN WITH MY WHOLE ENERGY JUST TO UNDERSTAND THEM AND YOU ARE SAYING THIS

I am a grandma and enjoy their music, their dancing, so much talent. Just be sure to take good care of yourselves , stay close to family and friends and enjoy your music. They have greatly promoted S Korea ❤️. I am impressed at all the talent there...

*"thanks to BTS, k-pop became an international sensation"*

"Thanks to them, our nation's has been upgraded." 🙌 Ajumma serving HOT TEA in here! ☕

5:04 this guy really don't know anything about BTS 😪 "a lot of their lyrics are in english" lol

How can they think we like them cos they are pretty loool the world doesn’t care about beauty they care about content and sincerity!!!! The WORLD AINT VAIN !!!!!

When I saw the question "do you know bts" I imagined it with Suga's voice hahahah

Seriously when will people realize that we fell in love with BTS because of their music, talent, message and everything that's so special about each member.

Never before had I ever considered learning Korean, visiting Korea or even living there. Only learning about BTS made me learn about their culture as well. I am really happy that my friend introduced me to BTS and K-Pop in general. Otherwise I'll be missing a lot. I'm Army, but also happy for other K-Pop groups' achievements. Saranghae from Bosnia 💜

I like the reporter when she sing🤣🤣😍😍 i purple u miss beautiful reporter...love from army in philippines

"a lot of lyrics are in english" The man besides him was like wth is he saying 🤣

"because they're handsome" BTS didn't become globally popular because of looks

And international fans like BTS not only bcoz there are handsome We like them for there passion, there dedication, there love towards the music, more over they are SUPER TALENTED Its so SAD korean ppeople dont know why we love BTS so much they just think its bcoz they are Handsome? So sad...

I don't understand the girl who answered "BTS is famous globally because they are handsome".. I'm furious and disappointed at the same time of her answer, you can't just have visuals to become big globally.. they became big because of their music,talent,sincerity and most of all the inspirational background story they have .

"THEIR SONGS ARE MOSTLY IN ENGLISH" then why i keep summoning demons while singing in Broken Korean Dude?

I wish some rude international fans here stop whinning about them for not knowing bts well. Since when every single person in Korea should know about bts deeply? at least they've heard of bts and they know the achievements. None of them said bad things about Bts.

I used to feel good about these interviews when koreans showed pride in bts....but now it just makes me frustrated to hear them say "they promote kpop, korea, tourism blah blah blah"...."i hope more foreigners come to korea"....Imagine the pressure bts has on them when people say stuff like this instead of appreciating them for being the amazing kind hearted talented people that they are...i am really reminded of namjoon's lyrics in intro persona how people love this persona of RM nd BTS as a whole..but what about the person behind this persona?....we care to know about korea ONLY nd ONLY cause of the people named Kim namjoon, kim seokjin, min yoongi, jung hoseok, park jimin, kim taehyung nd jung jungkook.

5.06 the guy in black shirt First thing: they didnot focus on international fans or local fans. They focused on there passion on music they worked really hard. There song really touches you. They there is a warm message in every song lyrics Second thing: we love there music not because there songs are having english words we understand there songs and we feel the real meaning behind the song

Is anyone else slightly vexed that they think we love bts for their looks and English lyrics? Just me?

Dat comment “i want to go home and listen to their songs” is a BIGASS MOOD

I am not Korean and I think they are 7 freakin Gods bruh i luv them soooo muchhh❤️❤️💜💜💜💜💜💜

i thought if they are korean they will understand the lyrics better and know how deep the message is because that’s what i like about bts, they always sincere with their song and want to encourage people. honestly i’m a little bit disappointed..some ppl always think if it comes to kpop then the amazing one is of course the choreography dancing and performances (i’m not saying that is fault bcs we all know bts performance are always superior) but i hope they go deeper to the meaning of their song. i felt international fans are more take their lyrics and message deeper than korean itself

"They amazed the world, now it's time to amaze the universe." I love her.

BTS is different from other K-pop because of their love yourself advocacy. They are true to their campaign. There songs always tell story.

I’m from Louisiana, United States and I believe BTS is so popular because of their music. I love watching their videos and seeing their performances. Personally I’m not concerned with personal lives as long as your not hurting anyone I’m good. I’m in it for the music and each one of these seven men are extremely talented.

With so many people still don’t know the names and even the number of members, it shows that bts is more popular internationally than nationally. They are still not mainstream idols in south korea. It’s wonderful how bts and army around the world have their own loving and respectful universe.

BTS is such an important part of Korea! I never had an interest in South Korea until I became a fan of BTS. Now I would love to go to Korea! I was surprised when BTS had to go into the military , I thought that the Korean government would have given them clearance to forfeit their military service because of the revenue that BTS brings to South Korea! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Good-looks aren't the only thing BTS has. It's their powerful voice and the message that those boys delivers us. Their songs teaches us that no matter who or what you are, you should learn to Love Yourself. And as you can see, their songs also tells us to follow our dreams and don't let anyone control you. “Maybe i made a mistake yesterday, but yesterday's me is still me.” -- RM's speech at the United Nations.

"Army With Luv" around the World!🙋🌎💪💜🙏

It disappoints me to see when they say BTS is only popular due to their looks or the one that said because they sing in English. Really though. Anyway thanks to the other persons who did say something sensible about the boys

Lastly , the anchor singing ma most fave song is like🥺🥺🥺🥺💜💜💜💜

I love how this girl introduced Bangtan, her introduction is long, but it simply says "BTS paved the way".

My honest opinion. There is no kpop group that will ever top BTS.. Their name spells International. Thank you South Korea for bringing the most talented group to America and hope for many more visits.

Bruh... How I wish they actually make more of English song but you're wrong... They prioritize and give more importance to their nation and culture which is so admirable and makes 90% songs in Korean...

HEY bro. You said that BTS song are Mostly In english?? Have you ever listen to their song.

1:19 I can hear Taehyung screaming "I EVEN MADE MY NAME ONE CHARMING LETTER! V! WHY CAN'T YOU REMEMBER ME?!" 😂😂

Bts became popular because they're handsome.....OMG....😱😭. I hope they know who represent their country better

"Do you know bts" who else hears jin? Am I the only one?

2:03 girl!! You’re right! They smile like a baby omo!!😍💖

We aren't kpop representatives - RM (Recording Academy/Grammys article)

Borahae!!!! 💜💜💜 those 3 girls at the end are such Army lol I love it!

"What are your hopes for BTS?"......Military Exemption

I;m a Korean and I think BTS is on the different level with other boybands from Korea. BTS is another level.

"BTS promoted k-pop to the world" BTS paved the way periodt

whats so amazing with these 7 kings is that their fame never goes to their heads...even when some international singers and hollywood actors are their fans they still remain humble and give all the credits to their fans and to the people who have helped them along their journey to success....soooo proud of them! i stan the right idols indeed! cheers to our boys and to us ARMYs! ,💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Korean teenagers and general population mentality are the reason industry based manufactured has been negatively portrayed in the world but BTS changed that perception. Their mentality that idols can't date or have personal freedom during their popularity days is ubsurd and it is due to industry manufactured band that tries to sell their band through teenagers by making them stay single throughout their careers. Unless general Korean change their perception, BTS will be the first and the last that do well in the world.

I'm so glad to see that Koreans have such positive reactions towards Bts. You can really tell that their opinion about Bts has changed a lot during these years. I'm super proud of these humble boys that fought for their dream no matter what. Look at where they are now!

I think HIS HUMILITY and his HARDWORK are what made the get to where they are, and of course our unconditional support BTS + ARMY= FAMILY

The two girls at the end : bts borahaeee 💜💜💜 MOOD

I'm honestly floored.... How can some Koreans not know about such legends in the making? Even if you're not into 'K-Pop' you should still be aware of what's going on in the world. BTS has brought Korean music and culture to the forefront of the world. Their fan-base is primarily adults, but they have the most mixed demographics of any fan-base worldwide. BTS is the reason that people all over the world are struggling to learn Korean; so they can support them and the positive message they bring to those who listen to their music. BTS is involved with every step of creating their music. From writing, to composing and producing, they are all involved with the creative process so it has their blood, sweat, tears and heart, poured into every piece. Each member is a valuable and irreplaceable friend and brother to one and other. They are not like the typical group where someone walking away would be a conceivable thing. They love, care, respect, and protect one and other like real genuine family. And it's because we can see how genuine they are to one and other, that moves millions of people to support them. Not only do they love one and other, but they also love the people who support them and never forget to give thanks to the fans. They let us know that we are their inspiration, as much as they are ours. It is through BTS that fans all over the world learned to communicate with one and other. Language no longer became a barrier. And it is because of that, Army have formed an unbreakable bond. BTS has helped people all over the world form positive relationships with not only each other, but with ourselves as well. Other musicians, idols, and artist are out there promoting partying, drinking, sex, drugs, and violence. It somehow became a competition to see who could sink the lowest, and it was toxic. But BTS changed that and became a positive role-model that the world didn't know they desperately needed. They discuss real issues that some how became irrelevant or taboo to speak about. And not only did they address the issues, but they unknowingly provided a 'support' as well. I have never met a group of perfect strangers so willing to lend a shoulder to lean on, or an ear to listen to. Army has become a global community and family. We come from all walks of life, yet we can celebrate and embrace our differences, while supporting one and other. BTS has brought millions of people together regardless of gender, religion, race, age, or sexual orientation. That is why they are succeeding in life and career right now. BTS is no longer just an idol group from Korea, they are an irreplaceable 'home' to millions of people across the globe. And no matter how much they succeeded in life, they remain humble and grateful unlike those who become blinded by money and greed. 💜

Her English is very good. She sounds legit English speaking. If I only listen to her voice, I can totally not tell she’s Korean.

Not people calling bts ugly and suddenly after them getting famous, bts become beautiful

I hope Koreans would appreciate more BTS. I even bought korean books to learn at least the basic level of their language and sing along to their music without much trouble, I have been interested in the Korean culture for a long time but it was until I became a fan of BTS that I became eager to understand the language. I still don’t know the real reason of their success outside Korea but I know I will always support them because they have work so hard for everything and they represent the next generation leaders, is people like them that the world needs, sincere people that cares for others and take the opportunity they have to spread love and a positive message in a world that is infested with corruption, greed, war and evil. It is important to be true to oneself and I hope their message can reach so many suppressed souls. BTS ARMY FOREVER 💜💜

Because of bts, now i'm learning how to read, right and speak korean...now i can read and write but i'm still understanding every words, it's difficult but it's fun...and for me, the reason why they are famous around the world, is that they help many people and they teach us to LOVE MYSELF and they teach us not to compare ourself to others through their songs i guess, and i really don't know why they are famous but all i know is BTS PAVED THE WAY, I LOVE YOU BTS!! THANK YOU FOR BEING THERE WHEN WERE IN OUR DOWN TIMES, THANK YOU😊💜💞

Imagine if the interviewer was Jin "hey man! Do you know BTS? yeaaahhh

We love BTS not just by appearence and performance but their message through the lyrics and what they do, their humbleness, kindness, and sincereness

The K diamonds in the interview are doing a good job 👏👏👏

We love them cause of the message they deliver in their music, their lyrics, their talent is out of this world. Being handsome is just a plus

This needs to be updated! I think BTS is all over Korea now...seems like they’re always on the news now for breaking all kinds of records and receiving special recognition. They’ve been called the pride of Korea and a national treasure.

Awwww the middle aged woman who said they gave her so much comfort and she wanted to go home and listen to their lyrics is everything

How could we love them because of their beauty? It would be very shallow minded. There are sooo many other kpop bands with pretty faces. Why does BTS become band number one in the entire world? It’s all because of their catchy songs, hard choreographies, soul touching lyrics and working hard. Their live performances are amazing because they always perform like it’s their last time. They bring good things to the youth’s mind. That’s the main reason why I do love them

Hey everyone :) Thank you for watching. This street interview was done at Hongdae. Hongdae is a region in Seoul, South Korea. It is well known amongst youngsters, as it has lots of places to shop, eat, and drink. There are lots of urban arts, indie music culture, clubs, cafes and shops.

I mean they don't know how lucky they are to know Korean and live in Korea ..BTS BTS BTS 💜

The women with short black hair in her 50's is my fav she is just like a perfect army she says the music helps her also she praised BTS mam borahae💜 The three girls too they said it's because they are humble The guy in glass yes sir sometimes the s in BTS is for sync

Yes, my dream is to go to korea once because of BTS 💜 💜

Well, I guess there's no need to explain these farther... I mean BTS are EXTREMELY popular in KOREA. I mean, it's their HOME country . And even if they are not a fan, they must've heard about them everywhere💜In the streets, schools, televisions, and even in the entertainment industries... Just *EVERYWHERE* Not to mention, that they are one of the reasons why Korea's economy grow larger and better so.... *speechless* 😁💜 SO PROUD OF MY BOYS😭💓💓💓

How do Koreans not know about BTS and what makes them so special? They're doing so much for their country. Still people and even media doesn't treat them right and the world treats them like kings

The amount of joy ppl have on their face when BTS is the topic :) precious!

*BTS* aren't just Attractive It *hurts* that other people *forgot* *they are Talented too* But *don't worry* ,their *hardwork* are already given with *success* *TBH don't forget that they are Talented!!!*

I'm arab army and I know and love K pop because of BTS I LOVE THEM SO MUCH 💜💜💜

And here we go with the fact that; BTS paved the way.

I'm here in India watching BTS being praised just before my xam..cuz it gives me positivity💜💜💜

Thanks for your video but I hope BTS also receive more respect from Korea coz they deserved for that.

Those 3 k-diamonds were hilarious/adorable 💜

Lots of love from an Indian army 🇮🇳

As an I Army..I would like to convey that BTS is really loved for their music, meaningful lyrics that give hope to people. They are one of kind. They worked hard for their achievement today. It's not fair to judge people on looks. If looks become the only parameter for music. Then, it will be sad day for music industry. BTS members are good looking and has their unique charm which I army recognise instantly. They don't fulfill the Korean standard of handsome and good-looking except for some members. Because of this they were not really popular in Korea. But we know their true talents, capabilities, hardship and so we support them for what they stand.

저는 미국사는 30대 후반 아미예요. 한국에서는 BTS 가 글로벌하게 인기 많고 큰 무대에서 상받는 모습을 국위선양 하는 관점으로 보실수 있을것 같아요. 미국에서 느끼는 바는 조금 다른데요..빌보드 무대에 서는 유명 팝가수가 그것도 보이밴드가 아시아 청년들이라는게 솔직히 상상할수 없는 모습이었고 최초 인거죠. 그것이 상징하는 바는 아주 큰데요, 여기 사는 한국 2세뿐 아니라 모든 유색인종 청년들에게 나도 열심히 하면 유명 팝스타 아티스트가 될수 있다는 꿈을 심어 주고 있는것 같아요.아주 의미가 큽니다. 미국에서 자란 2세들이 왜 다 한국가서 가수 하겠어요. 미국에서 공부보다 더 힘든게 가수로서 아티스트로서 동양인이 성공한다는게 쉽지 않다고 생각됩니다.그런 롤모델이 없었고요.저 친구들의 성공이, 꿈꾸지만 내가 할수 있을까 생각 하는 많은 지구촌 청년들에게 희망이 된다고 생각해요. 그 와중에 너무 성실 착실 겸손한 친구들이라 한국의 이미지까지 좋게 만들어 주고 있는것 같아요.

He said : Alot of their lyrics are in English Me: (just understand two words from their songs) Oook So that mean that I'm a Korean girl who can't understand English right ?!!

It seems no matter what you appreciate about BTS, they are a source of joy, support and pride. I am a proud International ARMY.

BTS,despite being so popular and successful,never miss a single chance to remember us(ARMY) and we never stop loving them.Thats why we are BangMy💜💜

Everybody say... THANK YOU BTS FOR PAVING THE WAY! 💜🎉

first thing that always comes to my mind whenever i hear about BTS is always "the first Kpop group, the first Korean boyband, the first korean artist, the first korean artist to achieve, the first korean artist to break!!! OMG they keep breaking and breaking records and reaching the top! Borahae 💜💜💜

BTS role is more than just a role cause they really change the world and make more people turns into kpop-ers BTS fighting!!!!!

BTS is good and precious people, I will always be ARMY until old, that's my promise.. HAPPY 10th ANNIVERSARY BTS!💜
