tina s 😂😂😂😂
I can't...dying
Paul recognizes his boi suga all the way in the back 😂
Suga Sweet
Lmao
It actually is very hilarious at how they’ve been doing political songs and jabs at the government but now they’re being praised by the same people they wrote against. Like Bts almost got black listed for speaking on events that the media was trying to gloss over, Bts knew they’d get into trouble and yet they spoke on these events anyway bc it troubled them and mattered to them to the point where they did not want to stay silent. One example of nearly getting blacklisted is the song spring day it very directly referenced the Sewol ferry disaster that occurred where a lot of people including high school students ended up dying, the government officials and everything surrounding this was as tho it was something not to discuss bc of the tragedy. The boys donated to the families of the tragedy and used the same yellow ribbons in a subtle scene in the music video that showed support to the people who lost their life that day and their families. The majority of what Bts speak about are taboos in Korea that’s why they’re seen as political views
Nazmina Rumi different administration right now than it was when this song came out though
Mieya Young regardless point still stands that they were doing things back then that would have gotten them into trouble, the taboos still exist
Nia M. True
Nazmina Rumi i feel that
The irony is, spring day still charting on Melon until this days. Queen did that
lmao giving up human relationship doesn't mean that you don't talk to other ppl, but rather the lack of human relationship due to busy millennials. Like how it's said in the video, unemployment rate is so high in Korea that in order for millennials to get a decent job, they need to learn new languages, get certificates, do internship, and constantly do things to prove their future employers that they haven't been killing their time during uni. Thus, their bond between friends have grown weak compared to earlier generation.
Also on top of that, Korea's economy was basically built on ppl comparing and competing, so it's a highly competitive society and we constantly compare ourselves with ppl around us. Constant comparing makes yourself feel like shi*, so ppl tend to avoid human contact when they've been unemployed for a long time.
I totally understand that one. When you are broke you tend to avoid friends as well. It's heart breaking.
i feel like all developed countries are facing this problem. the older generation created a bunch of problems and left them for us millennials to solve but it’s gotten so much harder to afford a decent living but the oldies think we’re just slacking off and call millennials lazy and financially inept :(
Quick side note:
Paul said “they ain’t holding the door for nobody.”
Interestingly enough it is actually *NOT* a part of Korean culture to hold the door for others.
So if you’re expecting the person in front of you to do so, you’ll catch a door to the face. And likewise, if you hold the door for people they’ll look at you either weird or like you are hella respectful (and there’s also the likelihood that people will just assume you’re holding the door so they keep filing in😂😂).
Ive been sitting here crying about the backwards knees omgggggg help meeee😂😂😂😂😂
There was a bit more nuance to the stork/baepsae analogy that you might have missed; in addition to sort of explaining metaphorically the disadvantage millennials face compared to the baby boomers, it also symbolizes a common mindset in Korean culture, that people are born with innate abilities and traits. So essentially that some people are born storks and others are crowtits, and you can't do anything to change that, it just is what it is. So that is a mindset they are also challenging by using this metaphor, saying they are considered "crowtits," both by society and the kpop industry, but they can do just as well and and are just as talented as those considered "storks." Overall great reaction, thank you for doing this video!
Thatgrace yeah like in the kpop industry.. artist that came from bug three are looked up to(stork) while orhers are crowtits like bts.so when bts reached the top,they got so much hate
wow... the irony of having this idiom, telling people to know their place in the society, then turn around and say: "you don't work hard enough thats why you're not making it".
HIS KNEE BACKWARDS
BRO PAUL MADE ME WHEEZE
When I first read the translation for Baepsae, I thought the lyrics were quite universal. Most countries struggle with issues of economic disparity. Though the issues in Korea may be extreme due to the high youth unemployment, I've read many similar news stories about the US and other countries. Even in the US, Millenials have postponed marriage, having kids, buying house etc. due to economic instability. "Passion pay" also reminded me of the debate and ethics around unpaid internships in the US. Even though, corporations are earning record profits, employee wages have remained stagnant.
These issues have only been exacerbated under the current US administration. If you care about universal healthcare, $15/hour minimum wage, LGBTQ+, global climate change, clean water etc. I hope US citizens 18 and over will vote on Nov. 6th. Please vote, this may be the most consequential election of our lives 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Also, I believe spitting in Korea is considered pretty rude, just in case Paul goes to Korea someday.
And, Baby boomers are the generation born after World War 2.
You said everything I was thinking. Bravo! By they way I heard from people that have lived there for short periods that people spit a lot due to smoking.
Dee Walker That makes sense. I've read that Korea has the highest rate of smoking in OECD countries. But, I've definitely heard Koreans say they think it's impolite. Maybe it depends on the person like it does in the US. I live in the US, but I think spitting on the ground is gross and impolite. Sorry Paul. Please keep your spit in your own mouth. Paul obviously feels differently tho, lol
Exactly. The situation described by DKDKTV in S.Korea especially regarding the housing market is something that has been talked about for years and years and years here in UK, and how first time buyers are getting older and older.
I just wrote something similar - it's the same here in the UK.:(
Also spitting on the street is disgusting lol like spit in some tissue or something (or at very least in the road)- lots of people here do it but it's considered bad manners :D
Yeah, exactly. I was actually shocked that they seemed so surprised by millennials putting off doing things because of the economy. We get blamed A LOT in the US for destroying industries (cars, real estate, diamonds lol) because we don’t buy from them. Or for destroying institutions (marriage, religion) because we don’t believe in them. When I watched the explanation video it actually made me enjoy the song even more because I could so closely relate.
LMAOO WHEN YOU GUYS CURSED AT EACH OTHER RIGHT AFTER YALL SAW HOW TO SAY IT
You guys are looking more handsome every day.
As someone who has grown up in the lower class, this song really speaks to me. I think millenials in America (especially coming from poverty) are going through the same thing. My favorite line is how they address older generations telling us "just work harder" and "effort, effort, effort" not even realizing that we're having to put in three times the effort in order to just barely get by.
Another song that is clever like this one is GoGo. I don't think there's really an explanation video about it, but it's got some great social commentary as well. It makes fun of the materialistic nature of today's youth while at the same time criticizing the society that made them that way. They're saying, yeah, the young generation might spend all their money on luxury food, booze, etc. but what's the point of saving anything if they'll never be able to afford a house, have work grant them vacation time, or get out of poverty. Plus, the song uses really happy instrumentals and a fun dance, but the key is in B flat minor which evokes the emotion of mocking and extreme discontent. The cover and image of the song is a sort of 'carpe diem' 'yolo' vibe, but underneath it's really sad......much like the young generation's lives.
I love political songs. So when I found out what Baepsae was about back then, I was completely enamored by it, I still am tbh. Baepsae is and forever will be a BOP.
AAAAND YEEEES PLEAAAAAE THR STORYLINE OMG
Wow you tricked us. Never clicked so fast for a reaction, but I'll stay up till 10pm bc you are my favorite reacting channel reacting to my favorite group.
i love you
When i first saw the lyric explanation i thought: different country, same shit.
Also I have to mention Yoongi worked a part time job to support his passion for music and school he worked for delivering food to people that was also the reason of a tragic accident when his motorcycle was hit by a car and Yoongi damaged his shoulder and the car's wheel almost ran his head, he kept it a secret to keep his position in BTS but BigHit found out and helped him and also payed for his college fees.
RIGHT IDK HOW I FORGOT ABOUT THAT BC I REMEMBER THE SONG HE MADE ABOUT IT🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Yes they worked before being trainees. I can't remember the jobs of other members.. Suga is a delivery guy and he even got into an accident and had shoulder injury. He mentioned it in his mixtape.
I love you channel! Please let Paul react to the storyline 💜 Love from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Bruh he has me dying
"Aye his knees are backwards!".
XD
yooo if you do the storyline w/ your friends that'd be so cool 🙏 i'm sad not many people pay attention to the pre-wings eras, they were sooo awesome, esp hyyh (have you *seen* them during that period, i mean, really)
also, like, how dare you set this for 5am... i can't stay up for that anthonyyyyyy
when i first heard this song i assumed it was a h0e anthem or that it was a simple dissing track. it took me MONTHS to look up the meaning and i never felt more thrown lmao. my respect for bts instantly skyrocketed, especially since in korean culture its extremely frowned upon to criticise/ speak out against older people. i love this song so much.
1:14
paul: “is that suga sweet all the way at the end?”
anthony: “yes”
paul: “sEE I CAN RECOGNIZE MY BOY SUGA YOU KNOW WHAT IM SAYIN”
paul: “you know why i could recognize him cuz he’s sWeEt”
I love how shocked you guys were at the "giving up".
PM/blind bandit/kneecap nacho lover/paul is wearing a jacket that looks exactly like one that jimin has
One thing that I noticed is that RM used these same millennial terms in "Dope." In his rap sequence he says - "Samposedae? Ohposedae?
But cause I like beef jerky, 6 gun generation Yukposedae" and finishes with "So can I get a little bit of hope?" Which is clever because Chilposedae means giving up hope. They slip in lots of political content, which makes me really appreciate Dave and Danny taking the time to explain it all. Here's an interesting link to the generations and what they've given up. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampo_generation
The way Paul always calls yoongi “suga sweet” SENDS me. He’s so funny. Thanks for the video, I had a bad day and this made me laugh :)
it’s the first song i’ve heard of its kind
us millennials, you and paul included, have got it tough no matter where you are in the world
i’m glad it’s addressed
you may recognize the samposedae and ohposedae from RM's rap verse in DOPE.
oh yeah
“HIS KNEES BACKWARDS” yoo I’m crying 😂😂 I cant with pm; he said “they spit in the ground too.......pew” 😂
Can you react to Spring Day explanation video
Uhhhh that will blow their minds!!!
i will wait patiently
madkrakatoa yeah I want them to see that not only the lyrics have meaning but also the Mv. So next time they watch a BTS video they will be like us trying to figure out everything 😂🤣
Vyvy Yang same boo same
3:40 IM WHEEZING SKSKSK BACKWARDS KNEES😂😭😂
It isn't just this song! There are a few songs that are equally important that I wrote and explained to you several months ago over a period of time about songs like "No More Dream" and "N.O." as well. I am so happy and grateful for Danny and David from DKDKTV who finally have started this so very important series! It's been really frustrating for me always being so aware of the true meaning of this song when so many are more focused on the "silly dance" part of the song which they do Rock Paper Scissors for in the beginning and who loses has to do the silly dance! There is the "Baepsae" Silver Spoon Mirrored Dance practice that is the only one that has excellent pretty accurate English subtitles if you click onto CC even though it doesn't say Eng sub in the title! This is the only one that will help anyone understand the lyrics since the color coded lyric vid is inaccurate and totally misleading and confusing and doesn't even really make sense! Plus, yes, the choreo most of the time does go very much so with the lyrics! Thanks so much for seeing this! It really sheds light on, I feel one of the most important parts of BTS and further explains why they have such a diehard loyal following! Thanks to BTS shedding light and acknowledging these problems many who've listened to their songs do not feel as alone anymore! BTS have literally saved lives!!!
Abbiea123 This is my entire feeling every time I mention Spinebreaker. Back before BTS did the homemade MV for Spinebreaker I always thought it was a powerful and controversial song against kids these days. But now people think about when they hear Spinebreaker is the meme-y MV and how funny it is. I'm not even blaming the boys for the MV (I'm actually glad they made one since the song is pretty underrated so now it got its promo, I often hear it play in Vlive Run episodes too), it's just that most of the people I see fail to read deeper into the meaning of songs like Spinebreaker. Even their choreo in the MV shows how they are emphasizing breaking their spines like how the lyrics say the kids are breaking their parents spines because these kids have been spending their parents' hardearned money on overly expensive branded jackets just because everyone in school has them. What's ironic is that BTS has a song called Baepsae which criticizes the older generation but they also have Spinebreaker which criticizes those types of younger generations. LOL they made songs for both generations so no one is safe, when BTS sees these issues they point it out.
Because for BTS it's always about saving the lives of the younger generation who many go through depression or ultimately become suicidal!! Because of all the pressure put on them and their hope and dreams being squashed or taken away! BTS songs are political and speak up against society as well because they're talking about things that up until 2017 before their last president finally got impeached you could easily be blacklisted for! Even talking about depression was not allowed! The new President Moon Jae-In loves and admires BTS. The First Lady was even singing along to their songs at their friendship concert between France and Korea that BTS just attended and performed at! They are trying to save the youth of Korea while introducing Korea internationally quite successfully where other nationalities even want to learn Korean and go to Korea all because of BTS. This is why the President just gave them the award Medal of Merit that only way older people usually at least in their 50's or more like their 60's or older ever received before!
No they worked part time jobs. Before and when they were trainees.
thank uu
SUGA did. He did deliveries on a motorcycle which led to his shoulder accident.
Yay! I’ve been waiting! I loved finally learning the depth behind the lyrics, it was a part of my first comeback with bts I it was one of my favorites just by the sound I loved it even more after I knew the meaning
PAUL SENDS ME LMFAOOO
3:35 his knees backwards😂😂😂IM WHEEZING‼️
The kneecap nacho lover 😂💖
Great video guys! I've missed Paul. Really enjoying the series Keep it up
Yes!!!! I love this song! I'm so glad you guys watched this video! I liked this song a lot already but I love it even more now. It's my anthem seriously. I live in the south with high number of conservative baby boomers around. You wouldn't believe how much constant complaining in public, in earshot of me, they do about how "lazy" millennials are that we just don't work hard enough that's why we don't own houses etc in my area. They think I'm a loser because i work in food service. Meanwhile, I and half the people who work with me have college degrees and massive student loan debt. I had to get work where i could find it because I couldn't find a job in my field. At present, my coworkers who just have high school degrees are in a better economic situation then I am. And we have "passion pay" here it's called internships. And some of these internships you will work even up to a year without pay even more depending on what field your going for. You work the internships to gain experience so you can get a paying job later. But if your competing with people who have a degree (they received years ago when school loan costs were 1/6 th they cost now) and 10 yrs work experience good luck getting hired. I would have honestly been better off if I'd either gone to trade school, nursing school, or joined the military then going to college/university. So this song speaks to me a lot.
Before I found this song I have listened to a few, maybe 10? And I was already hooked. But after watching the dance video the next suggestion was this explanation... After watching that video I had reached the conclusion that I was following the right group. Bapsae and Spine breaker are probably the songs with more social criticism... Spring day has a critic too but it's more subtle, you must watch the explanation video to get the full message.
'GoGo' and 'Am I Wrong' also have some really good social/political commentary. Seriously, GoGo is way deeper than many people know.
Dope too, they also talked about the n-po generation and was criticizing the media and society
@@minsugacheonjaejjangjjangm1194 lol, you're right. Though I listen to music all days, when it comes the time to remember them my brain goes into hibernation mode. Seriously I could had been listening to a song on repeat all day and one hour later I couldn't even remember the first line. 0 memory for songs. That's why I have stayed out from the music industry...and that I can't sing 1 note right even if my life depended on it.
Quality content right here. Keep up the good work guys 💜
I love this! You guys should really check out the other explanations of BTS' songs by dkdtv. There's so many cultural references that we can't pick up. Great job Anthony!
so excited for the storyline videos x___x
Paul needs to be in more videos, he had me dead lmao
I JUST got home from university and got so pumped at the notification, only to be told I have to wait 😩. Sigh. See you in 75 mins
2:04 i am crying, i had the exact same reaction as paul akhskd
Really like the video! I would love to see Paul seen the storyline with you! I like group reactions a lot😊
Before they debut, some members of BTS did work. Suga worked as a delivery driver to help pay for his college expenses, but stopped after he was in a car accident and hurt his shoulder. When he told the company what was going on, the company paid for this college tuition. He talks about it on one of the Burn the Stage episodes. He was on a motorbike and when he regained conciseness the wheel of the cars tire was in front of his face. His shoulder ended up being out of socket. You could say that he almost died. An angel was with him for sure.
Suga worked. He even hurt himself on the job really bad as a trainee and didn't tell bighit in the fear of being let go
Hey, could you maybe also consider reacting to “Am I Wrong”. It’s another one of their kind of political songs and it’s a bop
Need to catch it in the morning. Too late for your international subs lol
when anthony and paul automatically curse in korean😂
Omg Paul is making me wheeze, we stan
Paul is just a cutie pie💜.... does he know his man Suga has a nickname ARMY gave him
Its Lil Meow Meow 🐱
Love these reactions you guys are so much fun
Also you can think of Passion Pay as Interns, many college students try get into intern programs to get experience, but the ones that end up getting the most of these deals are the companies
And many don't have chance to get into these programs because they have to get a job after school to pay for everyday necessities so they can't afford to work for free
Don't want to sound like a broken record, but since I found this channel yesterday, I've been binge watching all your BTS vids. Love your genuine reactions, going to check out some of your other stuff too after all the bangtan stuff.
Anthony, this premiere thing is cool.
I find the contrast between the song (beat, music) and the lyrics very interesting.
PAUL GOT ME OUT HERE CRYING REAL TEARS FROM LAUGHING SO HARD
This song showed me folks in Korean going through the same stuff as me in the USA.
Baebsae is def. at the core of reasons I adore Bangtan the way I do.
"That nigga knees backwards" I'm weak🤣🤣🤣🤣
That is so cool that Paul is also going to watch the story line
I love you two together. I stan friendships
BTS used to be cut out of variety shows and broadcasts. They were looked down upon for years before gaining recognition. So yeah, it's crazy seeing how valued they are today
Wow I just learned a lot today
I do hope that you watch the full dance practice. Enjoyed the reaction. I am familiar with some of the issues in the song, however I learned more about the wordplay. These guys are brilliant lyricists.
I would love for you to show Paul the storyline I stand
Anthony! I love this video. You should check out the explanation of spine breaker too! It’s really interesting, and I think you’d enjoy it!
Wow, I just stumbled upon your reaction and I am satisfied! I loved your reaction a lot. Please keep on reacting to more of DKDTV vids regarding BTS! I’d really watch it 😂💜
I'm shook that's what the song means. This is why I love BTS.
Paul is too hilarious!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
MY BOI PAUL IS BACK HELL YEAHHHHH
Y'all getting passion pay on CZcams - you're "getting" to do what you love but not being paid adequately for it and people expect to you just accept that and be grateful for the opportunity/exposure. You love it so you'll do it even if you're not getting paid right. It's the same bs when people get paid very poorly or not at all for internships.
great point
Omg I'm ready
When I first learned the meaning I thought, no wonder they have one of the highest, if not the highest, suicide rates in the world. Also, later I watched a documentary about the extremely high number of people there who LITERALLY refuse to leave their room. There is a name for it, I forget what it's called, but the person is so depressed and traumatized that they are unable to even leave their room. So MANY young people. Family members must bring them food, but rarely see them. Very sad. I am grateful for the channel you mentioned that explains the lyrics from a Korean perspective. I see SO many 'reaction' videos where the reactor is COMPLETELY clueless to what the song is really about and I am now uninterested in those reactions. You both seem like extremely bright and intelligent young men and I am please to see your deeper interest. I am a disabled 62 y/o grandma (halmoni) ARMY who loves kpop and kdramas. I have subscribed to your channel. Thank you. Ms. Kimmy
Baepsae is still my favourite song tbh. We love fighting against oppression.
I'm glad you mentioned the dancing, because it's actually another clever commentary from Bts. The dance is does indeed look like birds or storks, like you said, but it's also mimicking traditional Korean dance, once again reminding us that the older generation are storks. ALSO, Bts loves to incorporate past lyrics in newer songs, and in Dope, they mention sam-po-sadae and oh-po-sadae (3rd generation and 5th generation who have given up 3/5 things).
PAUL is so great
This is the first time am early for a live. The last time I was this early, Justin beiber was still singing
you made me stay awake till 5am for this
I’ve been fooled lmao I really thought that I was gonna watch this video
Lol same here
12:30 I NEVER NOTICED THAT IM SO SHOOK
Im crying when you guys were laughing about the knee😂
The best duo💜
When I first heard Baepsae it was just a song that got me pumped but when I found out the meaning it blew me away. It still remains as one of my favorite BTS songs. I feel like the millennial and baby boomer thing is also something that could be applied in the US. Millennials are blamed or shamed for a multitude of things by the baby boomers when they are the ones that made the problem.
I love Paul
i like this song a whole lot more now that i fully understand it
When you wait on this video before going to bed 😂🤣
On an unrelated note, most long legged birds actually have knees that are in their feathers, and the backward knees you're seeing are their ankles.
Also, love your reactions!
Waiting waiting just keep waiting😆😂😂😂
Korea has had a sad history all the way back to when they became Korea. Lover of historical K dramas and research, even before I learned about BTS. I guess that's one of the many reasons I fell in love with them. lol
0:19 anthony knows the cringe is coming 😂
Had to pause for a quick sec. I CAN'T WAIT FOR PAUL TO GET TO THE STORYLINE AND DIVE IN DEEP TO THE BTS HELL HOLE
"pew" I CANT BREATHE HAHAHAAH
Please react to spring day explanation, your minds will be blown it’s amazing!!!!
Paul recognizes Suga every time 😂❤️
You have to react to flowsik “bbung!” It’s so sick
baepsae is the song that cemented me as a fan of bts!! i knew that we shared the same values and that they could make badass and fun songs while still being heavily political.
Am I Wrong is anothrer one of my other favorites too in terms of political songs, especially the line adressing what the minister of education of south korea at that time said about the class system.
Another one is also paradise which is an incredibly well done and reassuring critique on neoliberal society's expectations of sucess as the only valuable thing in life.
in conclusion: i love bts
1) I love this channel
2) I hope Paul comes in more videos, please show him the storyline😭
3) I'm not sure if you reacted to any Squishy Min Yoongi videos but theres a ton on that channel and they are all amazing and hilarious. Theres some guide videos to the members and to the different BTS eras you can use for Creating Armys Series, but theres also videos like 'BTS Habits' and 'Jungkook Being a Brat' so I really recommend them for a good laugh
I need y'all to go live 😂😂😂and just cut up and talk about life, y'all are to funny.
"That nigga knees backwards!" SKXKKXNX I HOLLERED
Just one more hour!
