A couple helpful things. The ages of joining in this are off, Korean age is counted differently than us. So when they say jk joined at 15 he was really 13yrs, a few months before his 14th birthday. One of the reasons Bang PD made the run BTS show was to allow the boys to experience a 'childhood' together 💜

Fun fact.... they sold out Wembley for 2 nights (tickets sold out within the hour)

Helpful hint for the guide: Not sure if you know.... Korean people used to count age differently to others... Korean Age vs International Age - difference is 1-2 years depending on if their birthday has been.... In most older videos, including this guide, they are giving Korean ages so you will need to adjust. So, The members were only 13-18 years old when they became trainees and 15-20 yo when they debuted. In Korea when you were born you were considered 1 year old. Then on Korean new year every year you added another year to your age, no matter what your birthdate is. .... Year of birth - International age at Debut on 13June13 (Year and age became trainee) Jin 1992 - 20 yo (2011 - 18yo) Suga 1993- 20 yo (2011 - 17yo) Suga started with MIDI at 11 JHope 1994 - 19 yo (2011 - 17yo)JHope started dancing at 8 RM 1994 - 18 yo (2010 - 15yo) RM started rapping at 11 and was well known in the underground scene at 13 Jimin 1995 - 17 yo (2012 - 16yo) V 1995 - 17 yo (2011 - 15yo) JK 1997 - 15 yo (2011 - 13yo) JK signed with big hit at 13yo Rule of thumb for older videos - if it's before their birthday - subtract 2 years to get international age. if it's after their birthday - subtract 1 year to get their international age. EG: TaeHyung (V) born 30 Dec 1995 ...... current International Age 27 (Korean Age 29). ... 2 years difference So Tae born 30 Dec 95 is 1 year old, then on 01 Jan 96 he is 1 more year older (so they would say he is 2 years old, when we would say he is 2 days old.) So he was considered 29 in Korea since 01 January, we would say he is 27 turning 28 in Dec. It's a different way of looking at age, from new years day - Tae is living his 29th year (since conception) - instead of - he turned 27 (since birth).... The Korean Government has recently (June28) brought in international age as the standard in Korea, but all older videos/ interviews/ shows, will be referencing Korean age. 💜Have a great day... sending greetings from Australia.

Becoming a stan of BTS is like winning the lottery. Not only just good music and talent, but the message/lyrics, and the fact they are good people who sincerely care about us and are grateful/appreciative. Aside from group contributions, individual members secretly donate to help those in need on their own birthdays every year. We usually end up finding out months later from the organizations or maybe someone found out. These days people seem to be finding out sooner, like weeks.

2 things: 1) Please consider watching “The Most Beautiful Life Goes On - 2023 update” by Rice Squad. It’s another long video, but is a great recap of their musical journey. Worth it, I promise! 2) Another reaction channel had Taylor Mari on their show yesterday (10/16/23). She had prepared a slide show with updated information on what the members have done since her original video was made. The channel is Throga Vocal Gym. Watching that will fill in the time gap and get you updated. I’m not sure of the time stamp where her part starts, but it will be easy for you to find. Looking forward to many, many more reactions. There are well over 300 songs and 150+ Run BTS episodes and that doesn’t include dance practices, behind the scenes, live performances and more! If you really want to see more details of their story, watch “The Rise of Bangtan” series. It’s amazing! Borahae 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

👑🔥💜Taehyung invented Borahi 💜🫶when Taehyung says Borahae I feel like he's saying it from the bottom of his heart and that he loves us sincerely and thankfully! He made it to express everything he feels about us. I love him so much.He's the purest soul ever. 💜💜

Quick thing they didn't include in the guide, which I think is actually pretty helpful for people newer to this stuff, family name is put first, followed by your own name. For example, with RM, his name is Kim Namjoon, Kim is his family name/last name, and Namjoon is his own name. Kim is also an incredibly common last name which is why a lot of them have it. Thank you guys for taking the time to check this video out, been really enjoying your reactions so far!!

Seeing your smiles was the best part of this video. Thank you for taking time to learn about them. I am genuinely so sorry about the mfs being rude/racist. We do not claim them. Idek why those types of people hang around here considering bts aren't hateful people. They need to get a life 🤷🏽‍♀️. ANYWAY, the animation you saw can be found on RU-vid. Search TinyTan Dream On (the song in the video is zero o' clock). I know bts has a lot of songs, but don't feel rushed. Take your time. Can't wait for the next video 💜💜. Side note: like others have mentioned, in Korea the name format is last name then first name. So for example, Kim Namjoon and Park Jimin would be Namjoon Kim and Jimin Park in the west. Namjoon & Jimin is their first names.

So happy to finally see y'all get to the guide and tbh I don't mind your singing at all in your reactions. Especially during Tae's stuff bc I find myself singing sm with them all the time lol. Glad to see this today!!

Im so glad u guys finally got to the guide. I always say if u "like" BTS ..you will "love" BTS by the time you're done watching the guide....and I think everyone had a member or two that stood out and was more recognizable at first so don't feel bad. Thank you 💜

Awww i cry every time i watch this. They sold out two nights at wembley in less than two hours

You guys are so sweet, such a joy to watch. And I don't know about the comments who say the opposite, but to me you *both* seem to be very charismatic...

The song you were grooving to at the end is one of my faves , Home, Jimin is such a vibe in it. Tonight show version is great you probably have to cover it with a bunch of text if you react to it

I forgot y’all haven’t seen this omg

Hey Gents 👋🏽 I’m so happy y’all watched the guide because recognition will be a cakewalk now….Them collective ‘Damn’”s had me tickled pink too😝 Great Reaction as always….I’m going to request a video that they showed a quick snippet of….When they were doing JK’s portion they showed a clip of them crying in front of a microphone….That video is the ‘BTS MAMA 2018 Artist Of The Year’ speech….2018 was a very very hard year for the group and they considered disbanding….It’s definitely worth the watch 💕💖💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💖💕

Loved your reaction to our guys, they have saved so many of us. Every single member is so talented singularly and as a group, POWERHOUSE!!!!💜 62yo ARMY from Australia.

Thank you so much for taking your time to get to know BTS more!!!! Love you guys 🤗 you have all my support.... I purple you 💜💜💜💜

Taehyung V is the inventor of the word Borahae 💜💜🫶 Taehyung gave us Borahae "• Why purple? Purple has different meaning for BTS and ARMY. V of BTS made a phrase, he said "purple is the last color of rainbow. It means i will trust and love you for a long time" So we show our affection to each other by saying "i purple you" or "보라해" (Borahae)" .. whose words at the UN and WH were shared by reputed org. and people, whose quotes are powerful and deep,.. I am never surprised or question his perception and intelligence💜💜 I remember RM saying in one of their BE-hind stories: "Kim Taehyung the man who rejects what's normal" and this really shows how unique he is 💜

Thanks guys ! You can react to it again when your third member gets back - we'll all definitely watch it again with you !! Thank you for reacting to Taylor's guide.. her and Rosan (xCeleste) put in so much time and effort for our guys and they're our 'go to' for new army.... Another good one is Rice Squads , many will have already suggested both... 💜

Thank you for taking time to get to know our boys.... welcome to the ARMY... looking forward to your journey to into the rabbit hole of BTS fandom.... 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

i can totaly relate. As a baby army, i used to confused jk and v a lot. It was easy for me to remember their names but I had a hard time trying to match them with their faces. Except rm, jimin and jin. i think their faces are the most different.

I had trouble distinguishing between V and either Jin or Jungkook at first and I'm Korean-American lol

Hi! That was a great reaction and I'm going to look for more from you! You caught all the small stuff that most reactors miss, I liked your attention to it. I'm very proud of their donation to Black Lives Matter because they don't speak up politically too much, their fans are all walks of life. Did you see, though, that Army also raised a matching million in 24 hours? BTS has faced so much racism themselves, especially in the US. I think this is why the US grammys haven't accepted them, race, country and language. As for Jin and his waffle capital of Belgium - the capital is Brussels. But a Belgian waffle is a special breakfast treat, a big puffed pancake filled with whipped cream (sorry to make you hungry). Jin is all about food. See you! Borahae.

I honestly really enjoy your channel. Your reactions are genuine which is hella important for army. Thank you for doing the guide, some else already suggested Rice Quad’s video, but I also recommend it. Greetings and borahae from Peru!

Funny thing. After a bit you're going kicking yourself in the tush thinking how was I ever confused? They all look so different from each other. Lol 💜

So glad you finally got to see it. 🥰Taylor did a great job. This guide is perfect for baby Army. 💜

You guys are so cool/ nice, is such a joy watching your reactions :)))) watching now. My fave moment so far your chuckling when Jin said I look handsome from afar as well lol

It's Jimin Vs chairs btw I hope you checkout jimin and V friends live performance there are many good fancams by fans from V's cute fanmeeting called vicnic 💜

I have my popcorn! I've been waiting for this!😊

Thanks for reaction and love your birthday words for Jimin! :)))))) I'll try to let your ads run from now on :)))))

There’s a lot that has happened after this video was made! A lot of great things, music and hardships.

Stay Alive is beautiful song

Oh wow it was different for me in the beginning. The members I was able to tell apart easily in the beginning were RM and J-Hope. Jin and Jimin resembled each other a lot to me at the time. And I would mix up Suga, Jungkook and V all of the time. It can take some time to figure it out. Especially if you're jumping from era to era and their overall look is different for each MV. Then you'll get to a point where you'll wonder how on earth you mixed any of them up because suddenly none of them resembles each other in your head.

Actually, they all can rap and sing now. All incredibly unique in their talent! Solo or as BTS they are amazing!

It's about time😊 purple you two

Love your reactions, especially this one.... you two are the sweetest! 💜💜💜💜💜💜

The animated music video you asked about.... BTS Tiny Tan "Dream On" (Eng Subs) You need the one that specifies English subs.... I will try to link it for you Tiny Tan are animated BTS characters

*Just wanted to let you know that right after the news about BTS donating 1 million dollars for black lives matter, ARMYS also raised 1 million dollars in the next 24 hours and donated to BLM*

MY JIMIN THE KING OF K-POP THE ONE AND ONLY IT BOY ALL ROUNDER GLOBAL ARTIST 👑❤️‍🔥🤩

Run bts flying yoga pt. 1 💜💜

Taylor Mari was just featured on the YT channel Throga - Vocal Gym & gave an update on the guys that is current up to a few days ago. The stat she didnt update was the award count which is now I believe around 900 & the guys copyright count update which the only one I have been able to figure out is Joonie with about 213 credits now.

I always waiting for jimin part❤

Yaayyy, finally !! 💜👏🏻 Next watch.. "The most beautiful life goes on : the story of BTS" by Rice Squad, the 2023 update. It shows the story of their rise to legendary status and you guys will love it ! 😊

Yaaaay been waiting for this 😁😁😁

Thank for the reaction's to bts❤❤please watch later "the rise of bangtan" there are so many episodes but you will like it!! episode 5 talks about their love for hiphop😊

I waited and waited and waited for this. Every age in this was at least one year younger. Because at that time Koreans counted you one year at birth and then at new year you become one year older even if you haven't had your birthday yet. So this year when they changed it everybody in Korea became one to two years younger. Which of course affects National Service entrance. So in that audition he failed he was 13. and 14 when he moved into the dorms with the other 7 and 15/16 at debut. V was hidden for multiple reasons. Their expert said he was just coming out of puberty and the longer they could give his face to mature the more handsome he would become. Plus they considered him a secret weapon and they did not want him poached.

Finalyyyyyy....letss goooooo 💜💜💜💜🇸🇷, Thank U soo much for this . Borahae 💜

Been waiting for this, thanks guys! Please react also RUN BTS FLYING YOGA PART 1 AND PART 2 you'll see more of their personality plus it is one of the funniest RUn BTS episode.

Borahae💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Just to give a simple clarification. Run by BTS = Rebellion Run BTS by BTS = Liberation Run BTS = Choas

Something new to react to is , H1gher Music- it's a label who's artist come together on these tracks. A few good ones are -THE PURGE -TELEFONO -CYPHER aka THE ARRIVAL the names are listed in the order the artist appear on the song, and there is subtitles

That 's why I love BTS and Become an army since 2017

Just found your channel and subscribed I loved your reaction to these beautiful humans. I am a grandmother and my twin granddaughters introduced me to them and I am happy they did along with my daughter and granddaughters have been to several concerts. Looking forward to other reactions and yes BTS has hundreds of songs. 💜

Thank you so much for reacting to and starting your BTS journey. You guys are in for a lot of fun! You will find ARMY's are creative, welcoming, smart and so very smart! @70 yrs old I'm impressed by at least ten ARMY a day. Here are some tips I found helpful on my journey. 1st. stop trying to identify them by hair style or color. They change it constantly, you'll loose your mind, LOL. Mic colors don't work either, although JK's is always purple, and Jin's is almost always Pink. Stay away from trying to understand the BU yet, it's way to early. Also, look for explanation videos with some of the MV. I see some guys watching a MV and then going right into the explanation videos. I find the best ones to be by rice squad. I'm sure other ARMY will add to the list . Thanks again 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 💜

So glad you finally watched this appreciate your reaction💜

If you want some Jazz covers from V you can watch “Le Jazz de V”

Thank you for your reaction. You love music and you are respectfull.

Something also to keep in mind, the creator of the video made this an ARMY collaboration. She created an original video, and then opened up the video to feedback from fellow ARMY. She meticulously tracked all of the feedback and made it a community effort. She did a great job!

What a great video, seeing you enjoy so much this guide makes me very happy 💜

she really did a good job but mow in 2023 it's far from being recent and updated! I just want to point out that she forgot to mention that RM's 148 IQ is genius level but Jimin and Jungkook both have an IQ of 128 which is pretty high too. I don't know about all members but Taehyung and Suga seems to have an IQ above average too. She said that Jungkook is good in everything but she forgot to say that Jin also is good in almost every sports, he also can play the piano and guitar! The other members startet to learn some instruments too. RM is the only one fluent in English but now in 2023 the other members learned it pretty well. It can not really be updated because with BTS you basically can't have an updated version for a long time. If you want an accurate update of BTS you would have to add another 5 Minutes every other week because they are working so much that they achieve something new every other week. For example as of May till now, they again released multiple solo albums, other projects, had solo concerts/performances, won many awards, are brand ambassedors and broke records. And if you want detailed videos about each member it would have been a 2 hours video for every single one (probally longer LOL) ______ sadly awards and first places are stolen from them. I urge you to watch the information videos by Boracity Magazine: BTS vs radio BTS vs Spotify BTS vs attendance award shows BTS vs boybands coming back Why the music industry is terrified of bts why the boyband "hiatus" doesn't apply to bts Why most Armys don't like Kpop "the next bts:" why they fail every time. bts paved the way, why is it so hard to accept it? How the bts army changed Fandom culture the truth behind crazy fandoms trends bts has created

Started from the bottom, now we're here ~

We got a preview of Taylor Mari's update to this she did a side show presentation a about 48hours ago as this is out of date already.

yay i been waiting for this!

I recommend THE RISE OF BANGTAN , RUN BTS and IN THE SOOP if you want to know BTS better.

tnx for the reaction💜💜💜💜💜💜

Thank you for finally reacting to it🤧❤️I just subscribed to your channel. can’t wait for more reaction videos💜

Mama army nueva suscriptora 💜💜💜💜

I love this. Excellent intro to BTS. There is so much contsnt for them, you'll be for sure still wtching in 2025. Lol i definitely recommend Rise of Bangtan for a super in depth look at them. Shoot. Dive into it all, ya basically down the rabbit hole, 😅 im here for it! Borahe! 💜 (Ps Rise of Bangtan is like multiple videos. But, worth it)

#JIMIN #JIMIN #JIMIN#JIMIN

Thank you and have more great reactions!💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Please react to The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: Story of BTS by Rice Squad (2023 Update). It's the story of how the members where put together and how their musical journey from their debut in 2013. I also recommend watching THE RISE OF BANGTAN. It's a documented series about the members' journey from their pre debut days, their hardships, their struggles, their success. There are 21 chapters for over 30 minutes each.

Enjoyed this reaction! 💜💜💜

Thank you so much for reaction our 7 boys 🙏💜 i promise they are amazing 💜

Thank you for this great reaction . Next,, please check out " PARK JIMIN INTRODUCTION 2023". You Will find out more about Park Jimin.

Thank you guys for reacting this video 💜 I really love your genuine reaction Keep safe always Borahae 💜💜

For more of the "Pandora Box" story, you need to watch J Hope's performance at Lollapalooza in Chicago 2022.

Many are kidnapped by K-pop songs, but, the person who knows the value of hip hop and knows what real music and rap are, is the one who appreciates BTS, for me they are the best, the lyrics of their songs are always legendary, and no one can beat the beats they make or their delivery, they are kings, And they did not reach this stage like the rest of the singers, but they got very tired and worked hard until their ass got shattered, they deserve the best, not because they are famous, but because they paved the way, because they are the best!

30:35 Talking about free songs. All members have done that. RM (2), Agust D (2) and J-Hope's (1) mixtapes where all free sound cloud releases (i/e D-2 which includes Daechwita) and the vocal line all have a few songs on their as well.

Thank you for watching

They are all dog lovers, plus Jin is also a Sugar Glider animal lover but both his little dog and his little Sugar Gliders have all past over the 'Rainbow Bridge' now

I LOVE it when you sing along! ❤

B army (Brazilian army) Love Love BTS forever borahea 💜💜🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Really enjoyed your reaction. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

I'm here for new reactors...omg...i just can wait for their reunion in 2025!!!

it´s jimin and chairs hehe

Hey guys new subscriber here. Love your content. Keep up the good work 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

NEW SUBSCRIBER!!!!! ☺️💜

Jimin my bias❤

Thanks ❤❤❤❤❤

Oh the Dog you saw at the beginning with Jungkook is his Dog.

Jimin and chairs 😂

Thank you for your reaction to this video. If you think telling BTS apart is hard you should check out the group Seventeen. They have 13 members. It took me quite a while to remember all of them. Have a good one!

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Borahae!

Hy from Romania 48 old BTS ARMY❤

Aww. You guys were great. LOL. Enjoyed immensely. Glad you will watch again. You missed a little, but not all that much. When multiple reactors do it together a lot of time there is so much talking they miss a lot if they don't pause. You did great! Going to see what more you've done. Enjoy your journey. There is definitely a lot more and they can definitely surprise you. Did you see RM's Joke, or Change with Wale, or Wildflower? Jimin's Lie (definitely live version with subs) Another long one but SOOOO worth it.... JHope at Lollapalooza. It is 🔥🔥 It can be hard to find subs for LIVE versions but a channel called Enjoy BTS More is incredibly good at getting accurate subs for live content that didn't previously have any. Enjoy your journey. :)💜

Xceleste has a BTS Hardship info video. I recommend you watch it to truly understand why ARMY is so fkn protective of the guys & why we will come for haters.

A member of Boys To Men did a cover of a BTS song, Serendipity I think.

Thank u so much for your reaction to BTS😊BTS idol multitalented..BTSARMY Borahae💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Loved the reaction, guys. Thank you for your honest reactions to Bangtan. I would really like to recommend a companion video to you guys. It's another documentary style video called " The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS 2023 update" by Rice Squad. I like to recommend this video after reactions have seen the Taylor Guide because this also helps get a well rounded picture of BTS as a whole. It really is powerful and inspiring to see how much they have accomplished in their careers together. No matter how many times I watch this video or reactions to this video, it always makes me emotional with Pride for Bangtan, and I am truly honored to call myself ARMY! 💜💜

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
