RM has a new feature coming out on May 4th! The artist is Colde, who worked with RM on a few songs previously including a song on "Indigo". :) It's called "Don't ever say love me"
During his trainee days, Suga worked as a delivery man and one day during a delivery, he got hit by a vehicle which left him with a broken shoulder. He recalled suddenly seeing I believe the front tire right next to his head. But he couldn’t tell anybody at the company or even the group because he feared that he would get kicked out. So he told them that he just fell down the stairs and for so many years after, he had to suffer a broken shoulder; I think he mentioned recently that he always took pain medication every show because of it. He didn’t get surgery to fix his shoulder until late 2020-early 2021. Suga then said that he actually ended up telling the company at some point and they asked him why didn’t he tell them earlier, they could’ve helped him. If I’m getting some details incorrect, anyones free to correct me.
Yup, he told the company at some point before his BTS members, the members only knew the entire story when yoongi/SUGA was drunk on their after-concert dinner back in 2017.. when he is drunk he becomes talkative & hyper...
He would also have to take injections im every city they performed. Black swan performances made his shoulder gave out finally amd he had to do the surgery
I *think* I read that when Big Hit found out that he had been hiding the injury because he thought they would kick him out, and that he'd been working that extra job somehow in between school and training and producing, they created some kind of policy for their trainees that would help them pay for school? (I need to find that source.)
It wasn't broken, but he dislocated it and that tore his labrum and rotator cuff, I believe. He would do physical therapy and get cortisone shots when needed. When he told the company, they made him quit that job and paid for the rest of his university tuition. He said in an interview that deciding to get the surgery during the pandemic was one way he could regain a semblance of control while everything else was so out of their control.
He wanted a very personal song. His accident happened during trainee days. He lied at first but finally told the company. A few of the members had not idea until he later released The Last. He didn't have surgery until 2020. Both in Amygdala & The Last he mentions/hints mental health issues he experienced. Amygdala is mostly hints but in The Last it mentions his parents going with psychiatric ward with him & more. With his D-Day album it's worth watching or reading his interviews about it. "BTS saved me" isn't an exaggerated comment for some. They have a way of reaching people. These personal songs they (especially Suga) release really do help some people.
Interesting bits about SUGA #1 There was a time when BTS was handed by their staff w/ their baby/childhood pictures & share something, Yoongi/SUGA's picture is when his family were on the beach. He shared that he nearly drowned and was saved by his father and he was so scared, so Jimin asked, "Is that the reason why you never dive in the water with us?" but Yoongi said, "No, I just don't feel like it.". BUT, I do think what Jimin said was right, he said he hates water, and it shows he has aversion to it tho he will still join some of BTS' water activities but not the extreme ones. Everytime trauma/fear is a topic, it's like an instinct to make water an example (also he said he can't watch horror movies, just an endearing info abt him, the Run BTS zombie & horror VR episodes will make you see it). Seeing yoongi not using a stuntman for the drowning scene in Haegeum makes me happy coz that means he's fine with water tho even tho he hates it. I'm sharing this because I see Yoongi as someone who can't let go of things easily... Yoongi can't let go of his fears, anger, grudge, regret easily just like how he holds on to things so much (he's both extreme both ways, light to dark w/c we can really see in his personality and music, (also his beats from school/predebut days w/c he made it into OT7 songs like for songs like Tomorrow, JUMP, etc. w/c he was the main producer & songwriter)... we saw him not long ago posting a selfie wearing his favorite grey beanie, fave FG T-shirt under his fave red plaid shirt w/c are all his clothes he often wear since years ago, and the tibetan dzi bead necklace his mother gave him before.. one of his many endearing traits is when he likes a piece of clothing or accessory he will wear it all the time for so long (currently, he has this cheetah print fur bucket hat) then will probably appear again in the future just like his other things... also ofc, BTS... there was an interview, Q: Dream? his answer, "being BTS for a long time", Q: BTS? his answer, "my entire life", Q: Future? his answer "BTS" ... his demeanor is often seen as "indifferent", "doesn't care" most of the time but he's one hell of a sentimental person..
You are so right. In the Suchwita episode with V he asks if V still has a necklace that they both had and V says, no, and Yoongi replies, I still have mine. I’m happy that he was able to have such a powerful closure to this chapter of his life. It feels like he is free to move on.
Having rehabbed many serious shoulder surgeries and injuries as a therapist I can say that they were the most painful cases of joint injury… really horrible pain. Suga would have suffered that type of pain from about 2012 til 2020…. And chronic pathways in the brain, unlike acute pain, reach into the amygdala causing mental suffering and depression.. Suga already had suffered depression and i can’t imagine the the mental state he would have been in… it is a testament to his strength and determination that he not only survived it but spent those years creating the music that he did….
In his last concert when he sang this song, he ended up opening the door and saying goodbye to his fans because he is going to serve in the military for two years. that was a very emotional moment for all fans that support him.
A sign of victory - smiling and walking through that door was incredible. Those of us on the chat were going crazy! He’s opening and walking through the Amygdala Door!!!!
Seeing how Yoongi was becoming after his shoulder surgery and therapy, he slowly began to get brighter, bolder, and confident, proactively wanting to do many things contrary to the lethargic moments he had before... he's still a few-words, reserved kinda guy, and he still have his pretty laid-back demeanor like he used to before but you know you can tell & feel the difference in him... his fiery spirit before feels like it's a desperate fire blazing until it'll run out squeezing every bit of what he have, but now it's a blazing fire that continuously and passionately burns to do a lot of things... I'M VERY PROUD OF HIM... I hope he knows how much I'm grateful for his music and existence.
Yoongi had an accident while working (delivering food) while he was a trainee. He got hit and his shoulder was pretty messed up because of it. He never got it fully treated and even avoided telling bighit in fear of getting booted off the group. He only recently got surgery for it in 2020.
Amygdala, Daechwita and Haegum are the trilogy that Yoongi has put together throughout his life, personal and professionally speaking. Having everything hang out. The three personas in him. His problems with depression. His anger of not being accepted as a rapper for being an idol. You have him here causing that scar, also trying to save himself (the self that turns into the mad emperor), the fact that he goes killing a part of himself in every video and they're actually the more healed ones...you can see that by the scar healing through the videos. In Haegum, the one who doesn't have the scar is the one who finally survives. IT's a masterpiece bearing his soul to all of us but also painful and triggering to watch....I'm glad that he was able to pull through all of this and raise victorious. And comfortable enough to share it with all of us.
Can you explain me pls, i don't understand where it begin, like with the song (the last) and after with the mv in agust d, and then after with d2 when he did daechwita and then with heagum and amygdala.
@@rakix_san IF you follow the scar healing, Amygdala is the first. It's when he gives himself the cut trying to erase all those memories and all that trauma. It's when the personalities split and develop and try to kill each other. The second would be Daechwita, black-haired Yoongi kills the emperor. The emperor being blonde Agust from the past, rapping full of rage taking the heads of all those who aggravated him but he's not needed anymore. And lastly would come Haegum in which detective Agust has a very faded scar but it's still there while fully healed Yoongi comes out victorious of their scruff, embracing all that he was and all that he is.
Goodness...It wasn't enough crying (Again) over this song, your comment made me cry again. I REALLY love and respect this man in every way possible, that I can't even put it into words... I can relate to to many things he's been through, which makes me appriciate him even more. Really knowing what he's gone, and going through in his life...This man is such a beautiful person, inside and out. And I THANK him so much for this song, this series of songs, for trusting us with his story, with his words... It pains me so deeply to feel his pain in such a way. So brave. So strong. He is truly amazing.
It's not a song it's his story....Yoongi is a genius...this song made me cry so hard,even without lyrics I felt emotional & after watching Mv with lyrics hitting really hard....I cried more after watching this MV....it's really painful to watch....that accident is his past accident, during his training day he worked as delivery boy & he faced an accident which injured his shoulder, he didn't tell anyone about this as he thought company will kick him out & after 9 years he get surgery. This whole MV showing his past , his depression, his anxiety, his suicidal thoughts, his pain , his accident everything....this song is enough to make me feel my own reflection...I can feel pain & emotions in my heart....
Can you explain me pls, i don't understand where it begin, like with the song (the last) and after with the mv in agust d, and then after with d2 when he did daechwita and then with heagum and amygdala.
@@rakix_san All of those Agust D (Old Album) songs are represting his dark past , his pain , his scar ....but in Amygdala - yoongi try to escaped but at last he failed so he accepted his pain & scar ....& in Heageum - U can see his scar was healing its mean yoongi is healing & after killing scar Suga ,he was happy bcz he is free from his pain.....
I can´t tell you how much I cried when I watched his video, as an ARMY but also as a person who deals with depression this one hit, and it hit hard. I was so shocked that Min Yoongi chose to share this with the world as real and rough as it is and still, manage to make it so beautifully. I've never felt so understood.
I’m right there with you. I showed this to people to help them understand the experience because words cannot. It also shows the pain and difficulty of the love ones who struggle to help. I’m hoping someone does an edit of this MV and Suga walking through the Amygdala door at the end of his concert tour. That is such a powerful ending to the story.
Can you explain me pls, i don't understand where it begin, like with the song (the last) and after with the mv in agust d, and then after with d2 when he did daechwita and then with heagum and amygdala.
Finally! Someone, who knows about the correlation between Amygdala and Hippocampus! The Amygdala is also called the "hot memory" it stores the memorys only on an emotional level. Therefore the Amygdala reacts before the consciousness even starts and acts on these emotional memories. The Hippocampus is also called the "cold memory" and stores the facts to the emotions, such as "when" "where" "what". If both come together, the amygdala is in the position to react properly after the initial scare, because it can sort the emotions to specific events. The brain of a traumatized person works different... The way between Amygdala and Hippocampus is blocked, so when the amygdala sends the signal to the hippocampus, that something is happening, the hippocampus can't be reached and the info comes back unedited and causes reactions, that aren't approciate in specific situations, because the amygdala can only work with the trauma memory, not with things, that actually happening right now. Mostly it ends in Panic attacks, Flasbacks etc. I think, the biggest trauma here is yoongis incident where he crushed his shoulder and had to fear, to lose everything he worked so hard for. Practically losing his life, because he feels like without his music he is nothing. Sadly there is no erasing of memories. The only way is, to work thru the traumas and sort them in correctly, emotionally (amygdala) and chronologically (hippocampus), to repair the way, the nerv cord between them both and let the past rest. Im not an english speaker, so i hope my writing is understandable...
My relationship with my mother ONLY triggers my trauma response. There will only ever be responded to that way. Instant fight or flight. I never chose it in the first place - I don't choose it now. It's a automatic and completely subconscious and definite full body/brain experience. It's awful. I wish it upon no one.
@@LaLayLaKwoumanaQino I know how that feels, fight, flight or freeze reflex. That has to do with the „old memory“. The brain isn’t able to link situations to the „new memory’s“ and make your body react. In a therapy lesson I learnt, that the brain should be able to repair this „blockade“ with working on figuring old memories out, but in reality I am 47 now and I am still waiting for things to not triggering me that way anymore and I am at the end of therapies… The brain is fascinating but also a very cruel thing…
Suga has talked about his shoulder injury in a few songs before and even the animation for the song "Bulletproof: The Eternal" has him clutching his left shoulder. He also talked about seeing a therapist in his teens about depression and anxiety so I'm pretty sure those pills are anti- depression/anxiety meds. As for his shoulder, it wasn't broken, but he dislocated it and that tore his labrum and rotator cuff, I believe. He would do physical therapy and get cortisone shots when needed. When he told the company, they made him quit that job and paid for the rest of his university tuition. He said in an interview that deciding to get the surgery during the pandemic was one way he could regain a semblance of control while everything else was so out of their control. He has also said that if you ever see videos of him in live shows where he's holding the mic in his right hand, it's because his left should was hurting too much to hold it in his left.
This was a good summary of his shoulder injury! And also to imagine that near the end before the surgery he could barely raise his left shoulder nor hold a bottle of cider (the chilsung (spelling?) cider commercial). I am certain his right shoulder (and both shoulder blades that he keeps stretching all the time) is also affected to a certain degree, he keeps stretching and massaging that one too (even to this day).
I’ve been so excited for your reaction to this, because I knew you’d get the layered meaning & artistry in both the song and the MV, and as ever you did not disappoint! This is my favorite song from D-Day and my favorite MV because it is so raw and honest and moving. Every time I hear (and see) it, I’m struck again by how Yoongi’s vulnerability is his strength, and his willingness to expose these traumas and share these private moments with us is so special, not only because it allows us to connect with him as a human being (rather than posing him as a polished, perfect, remote superstar) but it also comforts and reassures us that we are not alone in our trauma and pain, he’s right here with us in the darkness, seeking the light together, working towards healing while acknowledging that the scars will be with us forever. Thank you for your thoughtful analysis and support for bangtan! 💜
This MV was just so raw and powerful, the lyrics are so full of raw emotion which I can partly relate to. And I just love Yoongis acting also there were bits that made me cry and get emotional. I can relate to it on such a personal level too as I no exactly what he is saying in this MV and song as I've been thru all that. He also said F**k to trigger warnings aswell (which this mv triggered me so much but yet Yoongis voice comforted me in a way only I can understand) Also I could relate so much to the lyrics and message in the song as I suffer from bad depression and I know exactly how he feels as yoongi is the one I can relate to the most
he is amazing. vulnerable. smart. talented. emotional. mixing captivating melody with what he wants to say. but also being brave to create sounds and talk about things that not everyone will like or connect to. he doesn't need that. he just does what he wants.
I said this on a couple of my favourite reactors to this song. Physical trauma stays with you in unexpected ways. The thing about injuries to the point where you need surgery and physio You never stop needing some sort of physio or pain meds. At least to some degree I've had knee surgery, dislocated shoulders, and torn ligaments. The pain comes and goes, and often, it comes in waves. I still need painkillers every so often, especially in weather changes or if I've been over working or in bed rest. I still need to go to the pool to do low impact stretches and strength training I still need to do stretches before bed I might not need these things every day, even after years. But its still there, and often times People think, "Oh well, they had surgery, they did physio they're all better" It's not that easy. I can't get the Cartilage back in my knees that I've lost. So yeah, my bones mended my ligaments healed, but my knees grind together closer and closer every day. Eventually, I'll need to rely on cortisol injections, and eventually, I'll need knee surgery all over again. That will bring more pain meds and more intense physio. It's something I'm going to live with my entire life and I'm only 32. My initial injury happened at 14. I'll always live with the physical trauma. I had a metal plate in my knee for a year. I was told I had ro stop playing sports. I run for Even a minute my knee throbs for day's I bike for 30 mins my knee is unstable for weeks. Sonetimes you loose out on things. I still had to work 6 days a week years ago before I got to where I am now, cause life doesn't stop just cause you're in pain From the ages of 15-27, I lived off of extra strength advil and tylenol and adrenaline. You either take 4 extra strength advil 2 times a day and work, or you couldn't pay bills. I either wore a tensor on my knee under my jeans so no one saw it and took advil, or I missed out on activities with friends. It was an endless cycle of pain management and survival and just not giving up on life. Like yoongi, I'm in a much better place now. Better family doctor Loving support system A husband who cares enough that he doesn't mind me making a little less and him covering more if it means I'm not working 6 days straight and not taking pain meds as much. Emotional and mental trauma stick with you too and having a bi polar mom and a functional alcoholic dad. I had plenty of this, too, but I wanted to highlight my struggle with physical pain over the years. Yoongi was always so intimate with his lyrics, and often performers know just how much the dancing and the travelling takes a toll on the body. Besides his physical injuries, BTS songs always helped. I feel like I connected with suga even early on as once a trauma surviver, always a surviver, and sometimes you just know. You look into someone's eyes, and you just know... Thanks knox you always understand everything so deeply. Big hug all Army Let's continue to heal and love and support each other. Sorry for such a long comment.
I just wanted to send some hugs--my mom has schizophrenia, so I know how much a parent's mental illness impacts your childhood and sticks with you through your adult life.
Thank you for sharing your personal view on your physical trauma and how that can affect you mentally.... my husband has joint issues as well and has to do physical therapy. Seeing how much discomfort he is in without fully understanding what he is going through, I will try to be more supportive and kinder towards him and his ongoing healing. Borahae 💜💜
@babysnuggslm that's amazing that you are supportive. Chronic pain especially 'invisible ' pain can be hard for people to understand. Though everyday is a new day. My husband sometimes joins me in the pool for physical therapy even if he's perfectly healthy. Though the company is really nice and makes me feel less lonely. I'm not saying you can do this. But maybe find something that fits you both do you can be with him during tough days. :) Good luck ! You're an amazing person and wife ! Borahae💜🙌💜
Your reactions are always spot on. Just a little context the other SUGA is eating Almonds!! The Amygdala in your brain is almond shaped!! Also, he read a book called Almond based on a man that was born with an undeveloped Amygdala and has issues processing emotions! This gave him some more help with making this song and MV
Amazing!! You should check out his recent concert clips. The whole thought behind it is so creative just like his mvs. He gets carried on and off like removing the limp Agust D bodies (removing some of his selfs). Even the stage design is so clever! It slowly gets taken away piece by piece until by the last song (his most personal song) he’s in the middle with just the lights and more or less no stage left. Man is a legend!
Thank you for pointing out details that I missed, that really help explain how Yoongi gets the effects he does--the sound layering, the transitions, even why he's using autotune. It helped me understand the video much better.
This song/ MV is everything. I think there are some darker tones embedded when he is considering first best choice, second best choice, third best choice. Options, of how to get out. I think the door opening with the white light is far more sinister than it appears. I think it represents one of the choices, that could have freed him, but thankfully he survived, albeit remained trapped. I also think living with chronic pain (or PTSD) would be difficult, and one would want to go back to being their past-self (pre-trauma) but while it would be the best option, potentially resulting in the best outcome - it's just not possible. So instead of thinking that way, accepting and self-love (the line about the lotus flower) may bring about healing. But, the scar is permanent. Cannot be erased, only managed. I find it both disturbing and inspiring that YoonGi literally replayed his trauma and shot it as it happened for the MV. There're therapy forms it reminds me of - psychodrama and Hellinger's Family Constellations but usually the person of interest would be an observer, while another person would be taking their role in a reenactment of the traumatic event. So from the outside, they may gain a different perspective. Also, through the insight of the other person who's been put in their shoe. I just hope Suga had mental support on board while shooting this. The lengths this man goes to for ARMY, tho! He deserves every respect as an artist and performer.
Hi!! Thank you so much for reacting to this, I’ve been looking forward to it!! It’s my birthday as well so I really appreciate it and I can’t wait to watch the reaction!! Your reactions are the best and I love how you break down the songs and music videos!! ❤️😁
You’re so damn good at this! Yeah the accident was genuine back when they were trainees, he was working part time to help with living costs as obviously the company didn’t have much money. And he got hit by a vehicle which fckd his shoulder. He left it for too long to get sorted so only really got the proper surgery a couple of years ago. Always grateful with how much he shares. Shame the translations don’t quite display the nuances to his words but the gist is there.
I just know that this man used to kill his English essays because what on earth is with his superior articulation of understanding suga’s art. That’s insane 🔥🔥
I'm so happy you reacted to this. I havent been able to rewatch the music video myself since I watched it the first time, it really hit hard. The accident is a real thing that happened in 2012, right before BTS had their debut, he was working a part-time job as a delivery boy and was hit by a car and hurt his shoulder. He was afraid of telling anyone what had happened, in case it would affect the debut, so he just said he had fallen down some stairs and hurt his shoulder a little. He would continue to perform and dance with a hurt shoulder, only getting minor treatments for it, until he finally got major surgery in 2020.
There should b a button for superlike on your channel. I always wait for your reaction on Bts songs. Your analysis is always cool and insightful...plus your explanation on the musical technicalities is also very knowledgable. And the most important part i love about your reaction is that you are empathatic towards them and show your support and it seems genuine to me. I admire the fact that you dont go ga-ga or go hysterical or show the same hyped up reaction for all music. Thank u 💜. I wish there were more honest and knowledgable reactors like you.
I just really can't listen to this song withought crying... Whenever I hear those first notes come up in my playlist, I have to switch it cause I know I'll start crying no matter where I am... This is the only song EVER, Korean, English, Hebrew, that I just can't handle when I'm around other people... I love and respect Suga so much it hurts...It really hurts knowing all he's been through and that's not even half of it...
Your reactions are always thought provoking. This song is meaningful, and painful, for ARMY and Suga. Thank you for you honest, and respectful, reaction. ARMY appreciates how much respect you show the members.
Knox, I truly appreciate you for thoughtfully and beautifully breaking down the meaning and artistic portrayal in this masterpiece. Your reaction resonated with me deeply, and I’m now a fan. Thank you!
Hope you check out August D concerts from this week. He killed it. Truly amazing acoustic versions and really hyped crowds. The the live version of this one is so great.
Holy 🔥 I knew this piece of artistic story-telling song had a hold of me; I wasn't able to articulate why. Your analysis went deep & I am appreciative beyond words. Some memories are life changing, but they don't have to take over. All we have is the present. Let's make this particular moment, right now, OK. Things are OK. 💜 BTS is a phenomenon for MANY reasons. Thank you, Knox for giving me a better understanding 🙏
Thank you so much Knox. I’ve been waiting since release for your review to come out! Your breakdowns help me to understand the complexities of Yoongi’s lyrics and MV’s and also the musical side of things too. This was an incredibly raw and honest MV and I felt his pain so deeply. Knowing how it feels made it a hard watch for me as I’ve had numerous bouts of depression from my teenage years to now(54yo) & was sectioned + much more, although I’m doing well now.☺️ Thank you again Knox. 💜 Btw, you were first on my recommendations today!🥳Last week I had to physically search for you but that is no more. Hooray!🥳
Also, we got the PG version of his accident in this video. It was much worse. It was raining and in the pre-dawn he was hit by a delivery truck and drug under it for a ways. He blacked out and woke up with his face pressed against a tire. I have no idea how he hid his severe injuries by claiming he fell down some stairs. After he finally went for surgery in 2020 we finally understood part of why he was so tired and grumpy for years. He was literally in tremendous pain all the time and dancing through it, taking pain meds to try to cope. I imagine even sleeping was difficult.
I don't know much about music and you are the first reactor who i just understand when you break down music concepts. Really a joy to watch your content and I want to listen to your music, i feel like i would enjoy it.
In eastern imagery the lotus flower lifts its petals towards the sky and sun but its roots are in the mud. So it blooms from the mud. Its a symbol of overcoming adversity.
Thank you for your reaction to this. mv. It is a song that is sad, but we all suffer from some kind of trauma and this really makes him more relatable to a lot of us. It has really made me realize how much I re-live my own memories and the constant struggle to want to suppress them. But really we need to face them, acknowledge them, and accept them. It is a part of who we are.
You have completely changed the way I listen to music. It’s incredible like a whole new world has opened up for me. Ty dude. Will you be breaking down other songs from his album? I recommend Huh, Polar Night and Snooze 🙏🏾
Suga has said he didnt get enough love as a child. His mothers illness may have resulted in a failure to establish parental attatchment. It is clear he gets on with his parent now. Though his mother did tell him he needed to lose weight as he looked like a white slug. He was in terrible pain for years because of the bike accident. All those long days of dance practice. He did not tell anybody for years. Only had surgery to fix it relatively recently. Extreme chronic pain can cause depression. Its no wonder he was regarded as cold and unresponsive he was just in pain and exhausted. I remember shots of him sitting quietly amongst the chaos. I think that pain is why Suga is so empathetic now. An ex trainee told the story of how Suga took him to hospital paid and sat with him all night.
The shot where the room is turning vertically and suga seems to be crawling actually represents him climbing and the hill or the way to the door is getting steeper and harder by any minute to the point that its impossible😢💜
Every timeI can't understand the full meaning of some video, I come here to see what you talk about it, I can feel the sensitivity you need to understand the video, and some times I don't have.... I love your POV of music videos. LOTS OF LOVE FROM BRAZIL 💚💛
The thing I love about Agust D/Suga/Min Yoongi is his courage in tackling tough subjects like this. It’s the stuff that a surprising number of people need to process, but too many don’t know how to find the courage to face the pain and wait out the darkness. There’s a particular place in my heart for this young man. His brothers are there too, but in their own spots. I’m one who is proud to say “I love them all, no favourite here”
To the scar: It was a mystery why Agust d had this scar. In haegeum(2023) Amygdala(2023) and in Daechwita (2018) Agust d always had this scar. Meanwhile suga/Yoongi (how replace the „good one „ ) didn’t have this scar. Fans were always wondering why he has this scar. I think that it represents the dark side of him. That the depressed/“bad“ version of him will forever be present .So that even if it’s healing it will never completely go away (like a scar )and sometimes memories just hit you. Thats my Opinion. Ps:love your reaction
Thank you, Knoxx. You make the best reaction videos. I love how detailed your every comment is. You translate the lyrics, the scenes, and the music so so well. You make us understand the song and the mv deeper. ❤❤❤
10:00 the pills (mints in the MV lol) were painkillers, he took them for his shoulder injury after the accident (it happened on a rainy day), but also thinking he wouldn't feel pain from all the other stuff I guess. He did a live or in some content he mentioned this about the medicine, he had also injections to keep going, until in 2020 he finally had his shoulder surgery done! And was 3-4 months away from BTS schedules but everything was so wholesome.
That accident affected him as a person and a performer for so many years. That's why he keeps going back to it. To be honest I'm not even sure which part about his accident makes me the saddest. The accident itself. The pain he dealt with trying to hide it all those years. Not being able to have support from his parents during that time. Thank God he's still here. Thank God for his fellow BTS member who prevented his suicide when all this became too much. Much respect for all of them.
I actually never rewatch the video after the premier bec it was a bit triggering for me, I got anxiety after the first time of watching it. Then I immediately thought how I would watch your reaction video to this then. But I was okay now watching this. And as always, I love your insight. You're always on point even if you don't know all the details of what Yoongi went through. Plus your analysis always give me new insight I didn't think of before. So thanks again as always.
I have a reaction idea if you wish : Group - Ateez and the song is “Halazia” (In Layman’s terms, it’s like “hall-uh-see-uh”, if I’m not mistaken). It’s a cool song. One fella sounds almost bass-toned in vocals - Mr. Yeosang. 👍👍
"What in the inception" 😂 You not only make me laugh in your breakdowns, but entertain, educate and inspire!! How is that possible. The term 'reactor' is almost an insult to you. You are THE professor, goat and all round top guy! Really appreciate this, I used to be the biggest hater of autotune until I understood how it can enhance the song. I enjoy it in your own music now Knox, and also in this. I think this is probably a lot more emotional for ARMY than it might seem on the surface, and I wouldn't say the lyrics translate all that well, but Suga/Agust D has always been very upfront and honest about his mental health, pain and trauma. Then you add him as a genuinely nice, talented and humble person on top of that. When you take into account the variety of what he produces to...he adapts and has amazing intuition. He'll go far and I think eventually we'll even get to film scores! Thanks bud!
Thank you for this reaction / interpretation of this moving song. Agust D really bares himself here and shares his catharsis so that he can bloom like the lotus. A brave and masterful execution of a song tackling a subject that other artists would hardly dare to approach. Well done, Agust D; and well done, Knox Hill, for another insightful reaction.
I saw your reaction video a lot, though didn't comment, but I think you've genius level sight about music, MV, artist, etc. so I love your reaction channel! knox you're doing great job I admire you and thank you. btw Agust D (SUGA from BTS) is amazing rapper, artist, singer so I love him and his music and performance, D-Day album trilogy with D-2, D-1. so thank you Knox, I'm expecting now your next reaction video!
Yoongi is a fkn genius. He is so complex and has so many brilliant layers. His talent in multiple arenas of composition, production, lyricism and performance value is literally off the charts. I will argue that he is and will be proven to be over the long term one of, if not THE arguably best producer in our modern times - across the board. He's literally just getting started. Wait to see what happens as soon as he gets done with his military service! I'm in awe of him and what he delivers, it's stupid.
Just to try and tempt haha...his album talks a lot about his disdain for corrupt media, journalism and the extreme polarisation between left and right. Plus some hits on higher entities in power in general which reminds me a lot of the topics you approach in some of your songs. Then the other half of the album focusses on mental health and human relationships/connections. It's so good and I think you would have a lot to say from a lyrical aspect. He's experimented with some drill beats too and as a fan of hard UK drill music, I thought that was dope!
I am army but whenever i want to understand bts mvs more i watch your videos... It's so strange how on point you are everytime and how creative you are which shows in your interpretations.. I wish u make it big in your own art.
9:55 yeah before he was in BTS and was in college and working at BIG HIT he also worked as a food delivery driver and got into an accident that wrecked his shoulder and he kept the nature of how it happened to him hidden, he said he fell down some stairs...because apparently he wasn't supposed to have more than one job when he was working at BigHit?? I think there are a lot of versions of this that circulate but this is the one that has been most consistent. in the bits he's in the green hoodie set. he's eating almonds and the Amygdala is an Almond shaped gland.
Remember this is the BTS member that hid in the bathroom 1 night before the concert cuz of panic attacks performing in front of crowds and the fact he's the 1st one doing a world tour.😭😭 ARMY helping Min Yoongi's dreams come true. ARMY already told you about the bike accident
