(THEY SAID LOVE YOURSELF!) "BTS" IDOL REACTION! 

I love the diamond analogy. A detail I love if this is the Afro beat, the Afro dance moves they use, and those suits were designed by a South African designer so it’s also traditional Korean outfits and imagery. Just love the culture blending and the live stages are stunning.

BTS is like "a diamond sitting in the backseat of my car & I've just been riding around with it without ever knowing" - so cute! yeah BTS's message is pretty special. special group of young men trying to do something bigger than themselves

Hey Tony, yes some of this is pretty self-explanatory, but there is so much more to this song. Dkdktv has an explained video and so does Xceleste (I think that's how you spell her name). But this video has more layers to the haters. I know you like to know the meanings of their songs to have a better appreciation for it. So I hope you check out one or both of these videos. 💜

My personal thoughts about the hanboks (traditional Korean clothing) they’re wearing, as well as all the Korean cultural references in this video, like the rabbit in the moon, and the dancing monsters that are supposed to chase away evil spirits at korean festivals. I think it’s their way of saying that they are going to stay true to their Korean roots because that’s who they are and where they came from. They don’t need to sell out and become just like every other western artist out there.

Serendipity as well as Lie are really good songs that showcase Jimin's talents 😁

BTS IDOL is ARMYs national anthem to me.

Jungkook is actually a pretty solid rapper! He rapped on some of their older tracks

As South African ARMYs we claim this song lol😂💜 it the closest connection we have to them cause they've never been to our country 😢🇿🇦

Not even pressed play yet but cannot wait for this reaction

Idol is what got me into BTS 💜 Ty for your reaction, I loved it!! 5:42 In case if Toney or anyone missed it, Jk was twerking here 😂 Also when Hobi mention Apanaman in his part, he was referencing a carton superhero. Here's a short description: Anapaman is a carton superhero from a Japanese children's book series. Anapaman translates out in English to "Bean Bun Boy". When he comes across people who are hungry he lets them eat from his head. He symbolize Justice, honor, integrity, and Safety. BTS also has a song called "Anapaman", which I recommend checking out.

Luckily, I got to experience this song live. The live performance is so hype.

3:19 "Hey" Perfect Timing

You could definitely pull off Jimin’s suit look! It’s about confidence.

This is their comeback to people saying they are too Western...They are saying I am a proud Korean and your comments won't stop me loving myself

The beat for the song is gqom which is South African and the dance moves mainly the leg work is gwara which is also African

The diamond analogy was apt. I think there are a lot of people driving around with a diamond in their back seat that they thought was just a crumpled up McDonalds bag. Now you just need to figure out that just below BTS, Stray Kids is a pearl that you thought was a napkin.

A lot of symbolism regarding their culture. The tiger, rabbit the large animals....etc.

This song has a LOT of Korean cultural references, so yeah, they are flexing a bit whit this one. You should see the live performances of this song! The crowd goes nuts and the one they did for Jimmy Fallon was at a historical location in Seoul so it is super special 😝💜💜

The best part of this video apart from the song itself and the colours, is the fact that Suga is wearing a sweater with Snow White , and also V’s hair. Love it !

PLUS BTS got a lot of hate for using green screen (even tho didn't as seen from behind-the-scenes videos), so they pretty much just filled this whole song with green screen!!

Tone, you're a diamond I found and you can rock whatever you want. So glad you got around to this. I hope you can find their online concert from last weekend but ffs don't put anything on RU-vid or Twitter. They had some amazing live band with horns arrangements going on the whole show and Idol was over the top. Black Swan too. Wardrobe too. 💜🐺

Toney I think you could rock one of the colorful suits, why not? They performed a remix of this for their online concert this weekend, it was awesome but V had to sit out the choreo because of an injury. They'll be livestreaming their December 2nd concert from SoFi Stadium in LA, it will be awesome to finally have BTS concerts with a live audience. I still can't believe I got a ticket for their 2nd show on Nov. 28th, I'm super excited for my first BTS concert.

Please react to Anpanman it’s one of my favourite songs from BTS

Yes, watch the DKDKTV explanation. Once you watch it you will be blown away by how smart and creative were put together this song with the video.

Toney!! Loved you reaction :) The mv has a lot of info about loving yourself and not changing because of outside opinion. For example V uses glasses that someone told him that it doesnt look good on him, RM does a couple of face filters (a "fan" told him in one of his lives that he should not use face filters), JK using auto tune, Jimin with the fan (I could be wrong but usually the fan dance is done by women), lots of CGI... the explanatory video by a korean is worthy to check it out 😊

Haha I was not wrong when I said you’d be jamming along from your chair. I was too from behind the screen, I can’t lie!

You can totally pull off a “Jimin suit”. You would rock those colors. Great reaction as always. 💜

Toney!!!! That analogy was top tier!!!. Yes! It is like finding a diamond in the back of my car or in my coat pocket. Another great reaction. I'll see you over on Patreon. 😉

They are posing as their favorite Marvel superheroes BTW Check out Suga's alter ego Agust D music video Daechwita its amazing

Yes you can rock that kind of suit... for goodness sakes you are handsome too. Don't get down on yourself like that. BTS is all about self love. Love Yourself Toney and recognize you got your own swag.. 👏 Recommendation as usual: No More Dream

YESSSS! bts x toney, the most iconic duo! so excited to watch!!!! 🐺🐺

YOU GOTTA SEE THE IDOL REMIX WIT NICKI MINAJ

i'd love it if you reacted to "Change" by RM and Wale ! 🙏🏻💜 or "spring day"

Hi Toney! This song oozes with self love and confidence. I like you was drawn to these talented young men because of the hype and I do not regret going down the rabbit hole. I love these guys! Please check out and react to: 1) No More Dream 2) Not Today 3) Airplane- JHope 4) Chicken Noodle Soup-JHope and Becky G 5) Filter- Jimin 6) Baspae 7) Danger 8) Life Goes On 9) Missing You- Remake of PDiddy's version 10) Perfect Man- A live show performance by BTS of a song by Shinwa honoring their status as OG KPop.

😃Woo-hoo! Am I the first one to view and comment?! I always love your reactions, Tony. Thank you 😊. Borahae💜!

You mentioned their dance practice video to idol. You can't go wrong with one of their dance practice videos. Who else besides BTS can have millions of views from dance practice. I mean like Western singers

This live is soooooo hype..... its awesome lol 💜

I missed your bts reactions :) hope you’re doing well wolf leader

Ooh I love Idol! I enjoy your commentary so much.

I think I liked it more today watching you reacting to it than I have before !!

I love this song! Toney you need to check out the online concert from Sunday...talk about a glow up💜💜💜🎤🎼

If I were going to give one song to a new BTS listener, which should I pick. He has never listened. I lean toward this but also love Fake Love. Mic Drop is my favorite.

The video is actually peppered with things they've been critisized for, like clothes, glasses and RM using filters during his live with fans. (According to XCeleste)

IDOL is what they call pop groups or singers in Korea. Instead of popstar.

Hey Tony! As you mentioned this song is full of vibrancy and self love msg! Also the choreography has African influences. You should check out IDOL ft. Nicki Minaj (a whole bop) Loved your vibe as always♡

Hi Tony, I think you are super awesome! Thank you for opening your mind & taste to BTS 💜

Idol is one of the songs I always love seeing concert footage of. It's soooooo good. That's the song that solidified that I have to see them live at least once in my life and I really hope they perform idol. I think this is cool because in SK we have come to know that idols aren't seen as actual "artists" so in a sense idol is used in a sadly negative way. It's music that they say is only for kids. Which sort of makes sense considering the content of a good chunk of the lyrics of idol music before (now there are more groups, BTS for example who are known, as you've pointed out, for great lyrics or at least more thought is put into the content rather than just something to go with the beat).so this is a song to the people who used the term to look down. Great song 👌

Great video 💜💜💜💜💜💜🔥🔥🔥🔥

you can start calling yourself an ARMY, you know 👀 LOL, just kidding! I love ur videos ❤️ sending love from Brazil

Another great reaction! I'm glad you got another BTS video out, love it. This has helped me more than you know. Thanks Toney. 💜

Missed you 😘 💕

Glad you’re enjoying the amazing world of Kpop though really BTS is beyond that and BLACKPiNK too! I would love to see you react to the group Stray Kids … suggest starting with God’s Menu, Thunderous and Black Door! Enjoy and loving your vids 😊

How did I miss this?! I've been asking forever 😭😭😭

Hi Tony love your reaction. 👍😊💜

Thanks Toney, I enjoyed your reaction to Idol 👌.

Oh yes you can!😁visually stunning, great message, everything about it is awesome!💜

I can't wait for your reactions to the dance practices! I am a huge fan of the choreography and love to see reactions to it. I was super happy when you mentioned in this video that you will. Woo! 💜

Love your reaction👏👏👏

Happy Tuesday Toney! Glad you're back with them. Let's gooooooooooo!💜

Thank you for Idol today 🙏🏼💜 Love the deeper meaning of IDOL! If you have time check the explanation of Idol by a korean from DKDKTV 👍🏼💜

Loved the reaction 💜...can you do more videos like their funny videos where you get to see their personalities

Playing Mic Drop and Idol back to back is a rush…

sometimes i catch myself saying lets goooo like this lmaoo i hope you enjoyed born singer

Finally 💕

I know you've watched many bts videos, I don't know if you watched videos to know them more, like their personnality. There's many videos (essentielly funny) on youtube (or Run bts or BTS in the soop). There's also videos on how did they become BTS (on youtube). But if you want a brief view of their personnality, there's a song create by an army on youtube called So I created a song out of BTS meme by paw paw... something like that haha.. Also there is so much BTS music without mv .. one of my favorite is the truth untold, Filter (Jimin), arirang, attack on bagtan, young forever, jump, Otsukare song (Suga and Jhope - Sope), even if I died it's you (v and jin), Autumn Outside The Post Office (Jin ), Blue and Grey (you can watch the OT7 version or the english version of v which was just a teaser but so good), still with you (jungkook)... yes there is so much more but I treid to give you some good songs that is less popular..

Happy Halloween Toney!!! Just a FYI in case you haven't already heard, JK did a cover of Fallen by Harry Styles.. it's awesome if you want to give it a listen. It dropped a the other day, millions of views.. anyways enjoy your weekend! Look forward to your reactions, thank you!

Great reaction. Thanks for the BTS content and the integrity of your reactions. I would love to get your reaction to Magic Shop and Not Today

Tony, I don't know if anyone told you but the dance they're doing is African and is called Gawara Gawara. At the end of Niki's version the dance challenge you'll see it.

Hi Toney! Thank you for loving my boys, BTS. Since it seems that you are going to be exploring other Kpop groups could you look into Ateez? You won't regret it. Thank u and take care.

💜

There is a real cool video of the song September by Earth Wind and Fire dubbed over the Idol dance practice. You should check it out. Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the materials for these clothes supposed to represent different African tribes?

Hey Toney...you should watch their live performance of this on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. The on stage performance. Very impressive. PS...you are now my favorite reactor.

Watch run bts live in busan it’s amazing

Hey, are you gonna watch one of BTS offline concerts in LA? It would be nice you will/can... 💜

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Are you ever going to react to their introduction video? It's really disappointing when reactors don't do that.

Hey Toney, have you watched their cover of Coldplay "Fix You", it's great and really highlights all their wonderful voices and amazing talent. 🥰Would love to see your response to their unique cover. Thanks from Australia 👌

Hello Toney, around 2:33 of the video, the person rapping is Suga and not JK. They get mixed up a lot. Suga and JK are in agreement that they look alike. I agree. Thank you for all that you do.

Hope you also have time to watch the explanation video of this MV coz theres a lot happening here. And if you loved the choreography here you should also check their dance practice and their live performance of this song, its amazing for them to sing and dance with intense choreo.

jimin almost hits himself in his face with his fan kicks, and I've seen him do better ones than this. HOW?

Desperately waiting for you to react to next blackpink video n it would be great if you will react to their debut song "Boombayah"❤.....peace✌

They received a lot of slack from their own people that the were becoming westernized. The traditional outfits the are wearing is a message that they can still be who they are, but they will never forget their culture and where they're from.

You might want to react to The Last by Agust D. It's a very personal song where he gets real about his struggles with depression and it's kind of a hard song to get through but it does help to let us understand him more ♡

there are many layers in the video. watch Dkdktv explanation video for it

please please react to (RM, Throw away 'LIVE 2015') litttttttttttttttt

Enjoy blackpink 😅 but their company has only given them 50 songs after 7 whole years ... and they bp only helped write 2 out of 50 so i dont see them as real rappers 😅😅, theyre just kpop idols given the position of rapper in the group like most kpop groups , thats why bts is different they both write and produce and have 300+ song credits now and is only 3 years older than blackpink

Love your reactions! Please do some Stray Kid reactions!

Speaking of the vocal line rapping, here is a performance of all seven of the members performing/rapping the rap line song DDAENG ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1hKCJ8V1kdk.html

Please reaction explained video by Korean as DKDKTV.

You know the also did this song whid Nicki Minaj, just write Bts idol and Nicki Minaj

I hope you see not today and i need u

Girls prending to young men. No sign of them growing a beard!. Honestly i dont c the appeal.
