I had no idea Suga, or anyone from BTS, could rap like this! Whats should I react to next?
You have to react to the MV for Daechwita. The lyric video does not do this justice.
BTS - Come back home or BTS - Dionysus, I think you might like those
Agust D makes crazy beats đ„. React next to Agust D music video by Agust D pls.
@@hmmmbibimbap9155 Just so you know come back home is a cover, the original song is by Seo Taiji and boys who are considered "the first-ever kpop group" and bts released this cover as requested by Seo Taiji for the group's 25 anniversary. Sadly Seo Taiji and boys were only active for 4 to 6 years I can't quite remember how long exactly.
I strongly recommend to watch official MV of Daechwita, it is not the MV but movie!
(Daechwita=genre of Korean traditional music consisting of military music played by wind and percussion instruments, generally performed while marching or as a static performance). The
If you like rap:
Suga: Shadow, Agust D, Seasaw
RM: Persona, Joke, Bicycle
J-Hope: Mama, Boy meets evil
Rap line: Ddaeng, Ugh, Outro: Tear, Cyphers
All7 rap/hip hop songs: Mic drop, Not today, Dope, Fire, and many many more
BTS has impressive discography.
To be more familiar with BTS, there 3 most recommended videos:
To understand how BTS was formed and what behind their message I recomend to watch This is BTS (2021 update) form xCeleste.
An introduction to the 7 members of BTS (2021 update) by IdaS is goof starting wideo to know the members individually
The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS (2021 Update!) by Asioan theory will give you very useful information related to their albums and concepts
I hope, my comment helps.
As a rock fans, yes I did ever judge them by their looks. But somehow BTS Jin "Epiphany" hit me so hard. Being ARMY made me to be a better person. You may love Daechwita explanation by DKDKTV. Mind blowing. Those lyrics are full of historical references. They are really genius.
Just finding out what I have so far, I'm loving BTS message of love and acceptance of yourself and others.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@DestructiveMediaYT
I second that, watch the DKDK breakdown of the lyrics bc theyâre brilliant- just brilliant
About the pill-popping line, i think it makes more sense if you know a bit more about the Korean hip-hop scene. I don't think suga was going after the American rap scene in this song, where a lot of drug use comes from the rough environment people grow up in. It was more about korean rappers who for the most part come from middle class or even more privileged backgrounds and do drugs more to emulate the American scene and feel like they are "cool" or a "a creative genius".
In fact there was one korean rapper who was also part of a kpop group who got busted for buying lsd and some of the texts with his dealer leaked to the press. In those he talked about how he wanted to use lsd "to be a genius".
it's also interesting that the in the same mixtape this song is on, there's a song called Dear my friend, about a friend of his that got arrested, seemingly because he got addicted to drugs. It's a really interesting song as well.
Yes, Suga was coming for the rap scene and if you know their background, you'll understand why. As teens, Suga and RM were well known in the korean underground rap scene. Because they left underground and joined BTS, they both got a ton of shit for it. The underground rappers criticized them for "not being real rappers", and they also got shit from kpop fans for trying to bring a heavy element of hiphop and rap into the kpop world. So Suga was partly responding to his haters from the underground with this song.
RM himself said he struggled a lot with identity crisis. Later he realized he didn't need labels, terms, or genres to define himself. Some songs he writes reflect this struggle and his resolution.
It would have been really nice if you had watched the music video after doing the color-coded lyrics! It's a pretty amazing music video, high production quality. And it really adds to the song, you can see how he performs it as a rapper. He released the song free of charge, so it's nice to support the music video.
As you tell from the sound, he mixed traditional korean music with rap. So the music video depicts traditional korean culture, Suga plays 2 roles - an emperor and a commoner. The video depicts a story related to the song.
Thank you for the awesome comment! I am going to record a reaction for the MV very soon!
Also thank you for watching and commenting!
Daechwita is the Korean traditional military music played when a King marches...
or high officers march or a military after a victory marches...
Suga sampled a part of traditional real Daechwita sound here.
He's not actually going after the whole rap scene. He is going after the underground rappers in Korea (which he used to be one of) that belittled him for leaving underground to go mainstream. Please react to the MV..it's fire (and also has English subtitles).
Agust D is producer, songwriter, composer of his own music. He is usually credited for keyboard/piano and synthesizer in his songs as well and he is always behind the concepts of his MVs
As Suga said himself: "Daechwita is more about the auditory enjoyment than the lyrics so i'd say you should focus more on the visual and auditory layers. I chose this as a title track because I thought it would be fun"
BTS and especially Suga are against drugs but they can still look at an artist's work and have respect for it even tho they use drugs. But if you're going to talk shit about bts or Suga and you use drugs he'll definitely use it against you. Also, Suga has a song on the same album like this one called "dear my friend" which is about a friend he lost to drugs (not as in him dying but him going to jail and just him changing) it is quite an emotional song but a great ender for the album.
the music video is a cinematic masterpiece, tells a story and is also very badass, i feel like it adds a lot to the song, you should watch it next... It has a lot of traditional korean culture elements on it which fits with the instrumental and elements of the song itself. the lyric video took the music video audio which is why there's a pause, since the music video tells a whole story and a lot of BTS songs have these moments where they stop the music around the bridge of the song and show only the music video as emphasis on the storyline or symbolism. It always look absolutely stunning because they have a movie production type of music video
I will definitely do a reaction video on the official music video soon.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@DestructiveMediaYT FYI, you can turn on the English translation by turning on the CC in the MV
@@DestructiveMediaYT You can turn on closed captioning in English on the official MVs to get lyrics while you watch but some people have a hard time listening, watching the MV and reading the lyrics at the same time so may do watch a lyric video and then the MV in the same video....don't worry BTS fans (ARMY) will definitely watch the longer videos
Yes, I was gonna say please watch music videos or live performances first if there's any for a song. I feel like watching the lyric videos only, kind of take away from it. Like you don't get the whole experience if you know what I mean. Great reactions!đđ«
@@DestructiveMediaYT good, ty
Yay the most popular of AgustD songs. He didnât do any promotion for this album or song and it absolutely blew up. As far as being mean online for being a BTS fan the Juicewrld collab brought out a fair amount of initial racism and hate for people who werenât willing to be open, and given this was the second collab with Juucewrld it was a true tribute track with a fellow rapper friend and collaborator that Suga very much respected. Of note on his song is how complex the song is. Suga is a fairly brilliant genius level producer/ composer he creates songs and beats that are just so fresh. In this using traditional classical Korean instruments used for Daechwita (a traditional form of military music used to announce the king kind of a form of music like hail to the chief of ancient times). He uses many references to Korean history throughout the MV and lyrics. In addition in the MV he is both the blond mad king drunk on power and fame and the black haired young commoner who fights himself and his own greed for fame and money and kills his greed to be more authentic to himself. BTS songs and especially MVs are almost always an onion of layers of meanings and metaphors, the exception being their 3 fully English pop songs (all 3 released as fun tracks to help cheer up fans because of the pandemic and I also wonder if they donât think English speaking audiences can handle their full metaphor game). Suga is Min Yoongi and AgustD. Watch the MV itâs one of the most cinematic music videos ever shot. Heâs lost friends in the rap world to drugs/prison so he has always spoken up against it in many songs.
Thank you again for the awesome comment. It may be that their more complex meanings don't translate well in English.
That's super weird that Sugas collaboration with Juice Wrld brought them hate. I did a reaction to Girl of my Dreams because I love Juice and hadn't heard anything off Fighting Demons yet.
For me, when I heard Suga on Girl Of My Dreams it made me curious to hear more, his part was phenomenal. That is the video that opened me up to hearing BTS, now I regret not listening sooner.
@@DestructiveMediaYT Many people don't listen to BTS or solo members with an open mind (they just write them off as a 'boy band/boy band member') and also many people didn't like the fact that he rapped in Korean on the GOMD track.
@@DestructiveMediaYT I think he seems to dislike the atmosphere where artists understand that even if they do drugs, they say, "I can do that because I'm an artist." Because he had a friend who naturally became addicted to drugs in such an atmosphere, and he had to lose that friend in the end. He doesn't just hate people who use drugs, but he thinks that he criticizes people who do drugs and influence others by justifying that this is for 'my art'.
P.s. In his song, Suga still misses the lost friend and expresses his resentment.
Additionally, there is video where a korean explains the cultural refrences in the music video as well as the lyrics of "Daechwita", it's called "Daechwita explained by a korean" from DKDKTV yt channel. If you do a reaction to the music video, you could watch the explained video afterwards, that's really mindblowing.
@@DestructiveMediaYT We all regret not listening sooner, but when you arrive you are Army. And you are welcome to fall down the BTS rabbit hole. We are all just a bit deeper down that proverbial hole than you right now. đ
Hey there fellow heavy/death metal fan. Metallica, Sabbath, Megadeath, Floyd was what I grew up with. And yet here I stand as a BTS ARMY. Firstly, thank you for having an open mind and trying music in a different language ("all you have to do is get over that 2" hurdle of subtitles"). I started listening to BTS because I liked the sound of their rap. But once I started paying attention to the lyrics, they blew my mind.
BTS has 3 rappers and 4 vocalists. I would recommend checking out a few more of the rap line songs since that's what you seem to like.
I suggest: Outro:tear, UGH!, Ddaeng, the Cyphers 1-4. Also if there is an official MV, it would have English CC which is a true translation more than the color coded lyrics. So would prefer those.
Thank you for the suggestion đ€
I have many if these songs on the list already, but I will add the ones that aren't.
Also thank you for watching!
@@DestructiveMediaYT BTS has one hard rock/rap song that you may like. It's called "Ma City" It's about being proud of their different hometowns in South Korea. Ultimately, it's about recognizing where they came from and appreciating their humble beginnings.
@@kafjaf6387 Yay!! You got it!
Oh wow We happen to have similar experiences, a rock fan here too and yet became a BTS ARMY few years back and never regretted. I suggested the same songs too. BTS b-side tracks are mind blowing.
Agust D was an underground rapper and is already an established producer before joining BTS as SUGA.
Interesting! From what I'm reading in the comments he caught a lot of heat for joining BTS.
@@DestructiveMediaYT oh he did for years! He and RM both left underground rap and spent a few years defending themselves from pretty nasty attacks about it (in interviews at a radio event with rappers they attended a year or so and not their career the rappers there ganged up to put them down calling them girls for wearing makeup and sellouts). In typical fashion they didnât rise to the baiting they were beyond polite and wrote some of the most viscous rap cyphers (4 of them) in response and their success speaks for itself. Cyphers 1 to 4 are fun.
He went under the name "GLOSS" before he started his career with BTS. Agust D is his Solo name that he created afterwards, meaning AGUS = SUGA backwards, D T = Daegu Town (he's from Daegu).
Suga is one of the most highly respected producers in Korea. And one of the fastest rappers.
Almost as fast as angry Jungkook!
Cypher 1 to 4 - Micdrop - Dionysus - The thing about BTS is that there is something for everyone. I personally am an old dancer, so I was drawn to Jimin's dancing (LIE) and then that drew me to BTS. From that I was introduced to rap, that like you with pop, I tend to turn off but learned that rap can be something I enjoy. Since then I have reached out to other rappers and found several I like. I think that is what makes BTS different, there tends to a member's work you like and then you get introduced to so much more. And yes, there are many people who make fun of you if you say you are BTS fan.
I want to add to the popping pills lines.
Please note I know very little.
In South Korea, they are very strict on drugs.
If youâre a Korean citizen and you went out of the country and did drugs, you can. Still be charged.
In the Korean hip hop scene, some artist have been known to say they took drugs to better their music making, writing.
So Suga basically says he doesnât need drugs to make good music.
Oh gosh. I hope you watched the official music video. Honestly BTS made me recheck my own prejudices and it was a shame how much I closed myself from things I had preconceived notions for. BTS is the best catalyst. As for pill poppers I think I remember reading someone give context that in SK there are some rappers who sort of cosplay being a rapper by overcompensating with what they think the image of a rapper is rather than learning the culture and honing their actual skills. Many put on the image they think is a rapper. And Suga is possibly calling out those rappers in SK. Like the lyric goes his country (SK) is too small to hold him because he's a worldwide artist and rapper, unlike those who's heads are too big despite just swimming in a pond as compared to Yoongi's ocean arena. Something like that. I learned considering BTS is a SK artist, we , as consumers are invited to learn about their culture so it's so interesting to view it not just with what we're accustomed to but in parallel to their culture and history. Anyways thanks for the reaction and for being respectful. Yes, a lot of people are mean to BTS fans (ARMY) because of their preconceived notions on BTS. A lot of us have to deal with that even from people we never thought we have to protect ourselves from, like family and supposed friends. Because their minds are so closed they look at it as an opportunity to look down on us. BTS makes me happy though so they can think what they want. I just hope more people can be kinder to others.
From a lyrical standpoint I recommend "People", "Strange", "The Last", "So far away" and "Dear my friend" by AgustD
I get it..
I grew up listening to Bands like 30StM, Papa Roach, SoaD, Linkin Park, Flogging Molly etc.. Before finding BTS my favorite band was Disturbed, which I still hold dear to my heart, right after BTS.. đđ
Agust D - entire damn discography
RM - Joke (lyric video), but also entire discography
JHope - entire discography
BTS:
Ugh
Outro: Tear
Ddaeng
Mic Drop
Cyphers 1-4
Just to start with the rap side.
And don't stress about coming from the metal background. A lot of metalheads and emos love kpop. I do. My go-tos are Tool, Nightwish, Stone Sour, Sabaton and Devildriver.
Thank you for watching and for the suggestions, I will add these to my list!
@@DestructiveMediaYT No problem! Also to answer your question regarding the meaning of "Daechwita", its a style of military music used to herald the arrival of officers or royalty.
So Agust D is the King, play him his entrance music? I like it!
@@DestructiveMediaYT very much so. The MV gives a lot of context to this song, it's talking about his rise to power and realising he doesn't want all that anymore, he just wants to be normal.
Daechwita (literally "great blowing and hitting") is a genre of Korean traditional music consisting of military music played by wind and percussion instruments, generally performed while marching.
In this fandome Army we are in all ages and all over the world, and we have all something in commen, we love ths guys for there Music, Personalitys, Writing, Producing and there amazing Talent
You REALLY, REALLY need to watch the MV for Daechwita!!! It will blow your mind!!! It's cinematic!!
You really have to see the music video itself. The cinematic quality of the video adds significantly to the lyrics. It's a masterpiece.
Just so you know the ending seemed weird because the person who created the lyric video added in the entire music video from the actual MV. The MV also has subtitles on it so you donât have to worry about going directly to lyric videos, most of their songs have subtitles.
Highly highly recommend Agust Dâs mixtape, D2. All the tracks are musically mature, deep in subject matter, and simply fire! You need to know that Suga had to deal with lots of crap from both sides of the industry, for choosing to rap with an idol group. He showed them he could be his own man, songwriter, producer⊠and refused to be confined to a genre.
Daechwita (literal meaning "great blowing and hitting") is a genre of Korean traditional music consisting of military music played by wind and percussion instruments, generally performed while marching or as a static performance. It was traditionally played for the "king" of Korea.
In the MV of this song, AGUSTD plays as a king, so when he says "daechwita" he means that the king is here, he has arrived. Daechwita is like a sign and way of announcing "the king has come, pay attention"
I think you missed out a bit by not watching the MV. The visual story-telling builds off of the lyrics and adds a whole other layer to the song, so you only got half the experience this way. Besides that, this lyric video ripped their translation right from the MV's official closed captions anyway. But I still enjoyed your reaction!
As for the lines about pill-poppers, I was initially surprised about this take as well. It's worth noting that South Korea has incredibly strict drug laws and doing any kind of street drug is much more frowned upon by the general public. With that said, in addition to "pill-poppers," the Korean word can also be translated as weak/fragile. (I usually refer to translation blogs, such as muish's ramblings and doolset bangtan, that offer more literal translations that also explain any double-entendres whenever I want to dig deeper into BTS lyrics).
My understanding of these lines in context is that his criticism is more for Korean rappers that are all swagger and attitude rather than any substance or skill. In that sense, I think the criticism of their drug use is that that's also part of their shallow image as rappers. They try to appear cool by doing drugs like the stereotype of American rappers, whose style of dress they also mimic, but really it just shows how "weak" they are when it comes down to actual ability (in contrast to Suga's "genius," aka his talent).
I should also add that the BTS rappers, including Suga, received a lot of unfair criticism from a portion of the Korean rap scene back in the day, and I think these lines are somewhat responding to that (and the ongoing bias many have towards them because they're "idol rappers"). They were accused of "selling out" and not being real rappers because they were kpop idols with a different image than what their detractors thought was acceptable for the hip hop scene. They were called girls to their face for wearing makeup and other sexist insults. None of the criticisms had anything to do with their rap skills or their actual music, and the rappers hating on them admitted they hadn't even listened to anything of theirs.
I think that's why in Daechwita there's the line, "All shit-talk, they got no game." Suga's critique of the "pill-popping rappers" is about a lack of substance. And I think specifically he's referring to Korean rappers that have insulted them in the past rather than just trying to stigmatize drug users in general.
Sorry for the long-ass comment! Lyrical analysis is my jam.
My Spotify Wrapped is 1. BTS and the rest are rock and metal band. I could go from listening to Metallica, Amon Amarth, Children of Bodom to BTS. I don't really listen to pop music but an exception for BTS cause their music have so much depth. Some of their songs talks about social issues and have deep meaningful lyrics with cultural references while some of their MV have a lot of symbolisms. Some of their songs also use traditional korean instruments mixed with modern pop music. You should watch the music video for this song, it's amazing! The audio for that video you watch was straight-up ripped from the music video. The actual audio (studio version) is different. BTS is not a typical boyband cause they do so many genre like R&B, neo soul, hip-hop, jazz hop, etc. Listen to Agust D's song called The Last and People. These 2 songs are just some of his great song with deep and dark lyrics.
Thank you for the Agust D suggestions, and thank you for watching the video!
Just found this. There are two rules when it comes to BTS. 1, never put them in a box when it comes to their music and 2, listen without prejudice. Your reaction was good and looking forward as you discover about BTS more
Thank you for giving my video a chance, I hope you enjoy joy my future videos!
By the way, the name Suga comes from the first syllables of "shooting guard", he loves basketball and played it when he was at school.
Agust D is just Suga backwards, plus DT in the front. Which stands for Daegu Town, his hometown.
His real name is Min Yoongi (Min being his surname. In korea, your family name is put first)
Another famous k-hiphop artist is BeWhy, he's an amazing korean rapper. Check out Challan, Gottasadae or Side by Side.
Challan is very intricately composed, and really shows of his genius artistry and rapping abilities.
Gottasadae is a more straightforward song, but still very good and skillful.
Side By Side is the end credits song for a very popular Netflix korean show called Sweet Home (apocalyptic-horror).
Thank you for suggesting a different k-kiphop artist, I will look into that soon.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
This was awesome to watch, love to see bts change peopleâs interpretations about them, theyâre very complex group.
And Suga is talking more about the Korean hip hop scene rather than the American one, just so you have some context he was active in the underground hip hop scene previous to being in bts and all his underground âfriendsâ started to hate on him once he chose to go more mainstream.
He likes to be direct with his lyrics and doesnât censor nothing in his solo music
I grew up listening to all kinds of music including what you mentioned growing up with as well and I also was a big pop fan as well Iâm 38 and a mother of 3 and I wasnât sure at first what to make of BTS, as there aesthetic was something I wasnât use to seeing in a male pop group but, I decided to click Butter and was blown away! I now understand more about the group and how deep they are as humans and am so so mesmerized by them as humans and as artist, there work ethic is reminiscent of the greats, MJ often comes to mind with this band because of the work they put into there art, they are a one of a kind band and Iâm absolutely Army now đ
This song, which I first watched as a MV about a year ago, is what brought me to BTS. The MV is a masterpiece - visually stunning, with the amazing music, and, something that is typical of much of BTS' music and MVs, multiple layers of meaning, definitely worth watching. Both of Agust D's mixtapes are insane. RM's and J-Hopes are also amazing in a very different way. I'm an old metal head as well, all the same groups you mentioned, and I've come to love all of BTS music. I only watched the MV (which YT recommended to me out of the blue, I have no idea what their algo is) because the picture reminded me of the old Hong Kong martial arts movies I used to watch at a little movie house way back when. It reminds me very much of them still.
If you like rock, I wouldn't say boys have songs in that style, but they do have some with "inspired" beats; Heartbeat, Fake love and Dionysus (and Ma city also has a guitar that I personally think is phenomenal).
Thank you for watching and appreciating Sugaâs song. Daechwita is one of the songs from his 2nd mixtape D-2. He released his D-2 in Soundcloud for free as gift for ARMY. Even though it was free everything about it was done with passion and hard work and with high quality production. Thank you.đ
Btw, donât worry if your BTS reaction videos gets longer, coz ARMY love to watch and appreciate respectful commentaries. I hope you get to watch and react more Bangtan music videos. đđ
UGH! is a really intense song by the BTS Rapline đ u might have to watch the "Explained by a Korean" by DKDKTV bc there are also a lot of cultural references that us non natives wont get at first
Every time I watch Augst D reaction it reminds me of my own experience and it still gives me chills. I love him and BTSđđđ
It is refreshing to see someone that is open minded enough to try out new music and look beyond their preconceived notions solely based on looks. I really appreciate your reactions. As you fall into the BTS rabbit hole (yes, that's what you are doing...it is ok...we all went through this process)you will find more and more layers of artistry in their work. You will see background stories, human psychology insights, deep messages of self-reflection...all of this changes you...changes the way you see yourself and the world around you. It all starts with "I just want to know their names" or "wow that song was catchy maybe I should hear more". I have seen this process happen many many times...doesn't matter the age, ethnicity, religion, or gender of the listener. BTS really touches your heart in a way you will never forget. Enjoy this journey and welcome to our BTS ARMY family.
I'm a child of the 70s, my parents were also big listeners of all types of music - British invasion bands, Pink Floyd, Hendrix..to Loretta Lynn, you name it. I was into the 80s bands like Duran Duran before hard rock & grunge came around..then hip-hop & rap. I continue to listen to all genres but I have to say my daughter accidentally introducing me to K-pop has been refreshing! Great music is great music - glad I opened my eyes and ears to it. Welcome to the rabbit hole - it's huge and filled with many great songs and groups. Enjoy the journey!
I was mostly listening to musical theatre and classical music the last few years, and after my BTS discovery Iâve enjoyed BTSâs music tremendously, they got me listening to more current music rn. And they do cover lots of genres, tho often you can hear hip hop influence in their music. And theyâre phenomenal performers, a few songs I didnât love the studio version, but the lives usually changed my mind. I think you might enjoy Dis-Ease, their most recent hip hop track.
I really love how you're so genuine, honest, and curious with your reactions. I just hit the subscribe button
Thank you so much for the kind words and for subscribing! I hope you enjoy my future videos!
The MV has subtitles! The MV is such an experience
Suga says that he doesnât diss anyone specifically. So, if it offends you, thenâŠ
Thank you for reacting to this song! Definitely react to the mv as it completes the package. I strongly recommend you react to Agust D's self titled track from his first mix-tape (it also has a mv and goes hard) The reason people thanked you for being 'respectful' was towards SUGA, not the fandom (although people def can be scathing towards ARMY) not all reactors to Girl of My Dreams were respectful to him or his language. Glad you enjoyed the song - SUGA/Agust D/Min Yoongi (his real name) is an amazingly talented artist.
I'm a 40 years old and I like pop music but mainly rock, hard rock, metal, 60s, 70s, 80s that's what I listen with friends and family, that's my stuff... And BTS đ
Awesome đ€
Definitely watch the music video. The visuals really add to the song. Thereâs also a video of Suga talking about the song and video and what it means to him. I really look forward to seeing your reaction to it. Also I love your auntie. BTS is nothing if not surprising - their discography is just so, so, so diverse and Suga has no small hand in shaping that sound. They just do what they want and excel at it. Canât wait to watch you learn more.
You still need to watch the video, if you haven't already. It's like a movie and Suga came up with the concept for it. It basically pits the "mad king" version of himself against the down-to-earth version. If you watch it, please do a reaction. There is soooo much for army to explain. Most of their MV's have English captions, btw. Suga and RM were underground rappers who received a lot of flack from that community for choosing to be idols. J-Hope learned to rap after joining BTS. They did quite a few dis tracks dealing with the criticism from underground rappers, but they've said they're not going to be doing that anymore. Keep digging in. There is soooo much more. Thanks for the reaction.
goodness, i am 39, Korean, and I also liked metal from USA like you just said Metalica, Korn, and more upto NIN and so on, and my parents once lived in USA in 70s, so they loved Beatles and James Taylor, Simon and Garfunkel, etc. and I got hit by BTS so hard.
Another Korean rapper is actually a female soloist named Jessi, I think you'd like her. She was born in the USA and moved to Korea at 15 to pursue music. Songs like Who Dat B and Nunu Nana might be up your alley. But she's done a lot of songs.
The songsâs title is Daechwita, which in English literally means _great blowing and hitting_âš*Daechwita* is a genre of Korean traditional music consisting of military music played by wind and percussion instruments performed while marching. It was played when King or high officials visit, "or" to welcome important guest or oversea guests.
Thank you for giving BTS a chance. I'm sure armys have told you a lot here, I just want to add that I grew up listening to classic rock (David Bowie has been my favorite musician my whole life), and while I do also like pop I love BTS. My husband loves metal like you, Metallica and Megadeth etc, and he doesn't like pop either, but he loves BTS too. There's something different about their music and I really think it appeals to people with all kinds of tastes. Hope you enjoy more. đ
I went back on your channel to find the first ever reaction to BTS, so I like to watch in chronological order as you publish...
Thank you for reacting.
I think you need to watch the MV too (if you haven't reacted to it yet)
they're not like that "typical" boy band. they're different. that's the point.
If you like metal and rap (and Suga), you would love UGH by the BTS rapline (Suga, J Hope, and RM). There's no music video for UGH, but here's a link to the lyric video. It's a commentary on anger in the world, and has a very rap metal feel.
I also included a link to the explanation video, which is a must. It's an explanation of the Korean meanings behind the lyrics, given by a Korean (in English), which brings so much context and texture to the song:
UGH Lyrics video: czcams.com/video/y-0QlQH5d3Y/video.html
UGH Explanation video: czcams.com/video/Cq3nGiu0_gI/video.html
So, this lyric video took the audio straight from the music video (MV), which is why you had that weird "silent" break towards the end. I highly suggest you watch the official MV for this one; it's a straight-up cinematic work of art. Also, you should turn on the captions for their MVs from now on. Pretty much all of the official MVs have English captions available, and a lot of their content from the last few years also have captions available.
Daechwita: From hangul ëì·ší, meaning "great blow and blow", was a military band of the Joseon dynasty in Korea.
SUGA........................my bias
Hi, 52 year old New Zealand ARMY. I've seen quite a few metal heads reacting to BTS and they like them. Suga is my bias wrecker and favourite rapper. He's phenomenal. You really need to treat yourself to the visual symphony that is the music video. It's epic. Just remember to turn on the CLOSED CAPTIONS to be able to see the sub titles. RM my bias, does JOKE. He's the one with blonde hair in the FESTA video you reacted to, and he is the leader for BTS. You can view it 2 ways. Lyric video or look for english sub titles and use that version. You will have to read fast as he spits like rapid fire. DO NOT USE CLOSED CAPTIONS. They're complete rubbish for JOKE.
Thank you for giving BTS a chance. I've a lot of people in my life who simply refuse to TRY to listen to a BTS song critically but without bias(b/c is pop music or its in another language, or even everybody likes it so I don't... -_-'), to determine if they actually like it or not.
I paused & went to watch your Juice World/Suga Reaction before continuing with this video. Yoongi (Suga/Agust D's real name) is an amazing Producer, Lyricist & Rapper. All of the members of BTS take part in making BTS's music and all of the rappers (Suga, J-Hope, RM/Rap Monster) have solo mixtapes; still waiting on the vocalists' mixtapes, but they're coming. A little tidbit that came to mind when you were talking about possible adds. All of BTS's solo work, whether its the rappers' mixtapes or just singles the vocalists have released are all available on their SoundCloud for free.
Suga & RM collaborated with Juice World on another track for their game "BTS World" 's soundtrack. "All Night" doesn't have a MV so you would need to check out the color-coded lyrics. I see you have checked out a couple of other BTS MVs, so I'll assume you know now that they have English CCs on them. I'll wait until I've seen all you've reacted to before providing any more suggestions.
The song is part of his D2 mixtape, in the end he mentioned about how his friend ends up in jail and changed due to drugs
Sorry iâm commenting so late. Iâm a huge rock/punk fan thatâs been into Metallica, Korn, Filter, Minor Threat, Led Zeppelin, Joy Division, Nirvana etc and growing up hated anything related to pop especially âboy bandsâ like Nsync, Backstreet boys. But have been generally open minded otherwise. I listened to a lot of hip hop rap like Public Enemy, Tupac, Biggie too. I kept hearing about kpop music blowing up a few years ago and gave them a chance because they were Koreans and didnât know why they became so massive on all continents including North America.
I was shocked to find that they are not a typical boyband singing about superficial stuff. From their debut as teens (youngest member was 15 at debut) they were singing and rapping about political stuff and fucked up things about society that so many young people around the world could relate to. THIS is why they started developing a global fandom despite singing/rapping in Korean. They broke thru that language barrier because their messages were so powerful. They only have a handful of love songs among their 200+ song discography. and theyâve all been involved in writing and producing since their debut. Theyâve done such a wide range of genres and thatâs why they have fans of all ages and musical tastes. Theyâve even made me like pop music đ
I recommend reacting to their music video to N.O. with the english subtitles turned on. Thatâs what made me a fan.
The MV (music video) is like a movie. First time I've seen someone react to a color-coded lyric for Daechwita, but hey I am thrilled you did it anyway. But as other said, the music video is a movie and there's a really cool ending twist scene. Here's the link:
czcams.com/video/qGjAWJ2zWWI/video.html
Phonetically - Day- chi (or chwi) - tha. It is a type music played with traditional instruments when the king enters. Kind of a royal march music.
The music video is everything. I recommend you watching it even if you do it on your own. The end would explained when you watch it. There is also an explanation video at DKDKTV.
Daechwita (day-ch-wi-ta)
It is a traditional music played when the King leaves the palace or when the ARMY returns after a victory in battle. đ
The music video! Itâs a must see đŻ!
watch WHO IS ARMY u need to understand the fandom because the history between bts and army is vital to why they are so global.
There is a great explanation video that will give some of the depth to what he is addressing in this track and symbolism used.
A Daechwita is the traditional music you hear at the beginning. It is played as a processional for kinds, queens, and the like.
thank you so much for reacting
BTS, really, don't get fool by their appearance...yes they're polite and humble but they're not afraid to call anyone out when they see there's a problem, they're also not afraid to call someone out face to face (a famous TV host experienced that just recently in his own show)
and they do that with grace, they're just hard hitting with their music but they're gentle souls...
suga mixtape agust d, the last, shadow and tony montana it's so fire too!!!
I really wish that whoever suggested this had stressed that you should react to the mv. The video is so good, beautifully done, so powerful.
Personally I never watch reactions to lyric videos.
He did later watch the music video, you can find that in this channel. At this time he was new to Bts, so didnt know that there was a music video with lyrics đ
Hello from the Kansas prairie!
Thank you for continuing to be open-minded towards BTS.
I am the last person that you would ever expect to be an ARMY. Iâm a 47 year-old latina, non-combat army veteran, originally from Southern California. My two favorite bands before I discovered BTS were Bad Religion and Oingo Boingo.
I had the same misperceptions about BTS that you did.
I never listened to boy bands even back when boy bands were a thing. But great art is great art. So here I am.
Here are some rap and hip hop BTS links that you might enjoy:
Please note that all solo work by any member of BTS is considered to be part of the groupâs official discography.

Ok going back while I wait for Rise of Bangtan part 2. I also only listened to Linkin Park, Metallica, System of a Down. I did not deviate from rock.
But somehow I found BTS and fell down the rabbit hole hard. And I've found a lot of other rock fans here too. I'd love to know what seems to be the pull but I don't have an answer yet.
I did laugh hard at the "not my wheelhouse" in the Juice video because SAME and then 16 months later I'm at SoFi screaming to every song.
Fun Fact: Agust D/Suga (real name Min Yoongi) has real royal blood in his DNA as he is a direct descendant of the high ranking royal Yeoheung Min Clan, a very powerful clan during Joseon dynasty. Their is even a rumor that two other BTS members (Jin and V) also comes from royalty [Jin (Kim Seokjin) and V (Kim Taehyung) could potentially be members of the Gwangsan Kim Clan].
Really!? That's interesting
Thank you for watching and commenting đ
@@DestructiveMediaYT Yeah, BTW at 8:40 Bang-PD or Bang Shi-hyuk is BTS boss/ former CEO & founder of BigHit Entertainment [HYBE]. He is one of BTS in house producers and he still is the chairman of the board he's just stepped down as CEO is all.
Oh okay, thank you for giving me context for that line, makes more sense now. I thought it was local police for where they lived as children.
I know you mean it's literally for fun fact. I have seen a lot of fans talking about the clan of them. Every time the clan was talked about, I saw the surprising reaction about their royalty(?) by I army. That's a bit awkward info for Koreans. So i wanted to correct the facts, but couldn't. because I didn't think it's that much important.
but it keeps spreading for years and can possible to misleading. So there are some things I'd like to correct.
Can spread it.
In modern Korea, the meaning of a clan is almost non-existent. There isn't any privileges about clan nowdays.
Originally Clans only given for royal or relatives, so every clans begin from royalty. But now every korean got clans. Why?
1. Can buy it.
Before the founding of the Republic of Korea, in late Joseon dynasty, the authority of traditional clans weakened and capitalists grew. It was a social trend for capitalists who had money but lacked a family power to buy for get in a clan list with money.
2. The royal family and the major power families, as the times changed, were mostly sacrificed to the next power.
So, even in the same clan, only weak members in local area that are separated from palaces could continue to descend.
3. Commoners also belonged to the clan.
As the class was liberated, even those who did not have a clan could have it, even servants could join the master's clan.
For these reasons, Gwangsan Kim clan is more difficult to find a relation with royals. Because it's from silla era royal in 9th century.(namjoon's gangneng Kim clan also), the 8th most largest clan in Korea.
So when Jin said on the show, "I am descended from royalty", koreans are just cracking up at that point. More than half of koreans might be related in royalty.
Please understand that my English may not be perfect. Thank u for reading my ted talk.
I wanna see you react to "Ddaeng" this one was from the rapline of bts. You'll gonna love this for sure! And if you want it to understand the lyrics even more, there's a video of an explained by a korean DKDKTV
1:25 Sometimes, yes. Got antis and all. I like to call the dedicated ones sunspots.
U have to listen to The Last of AGUSTD
For more rock/metal vibes i recommend FAKE LOVE (there is also a rock version of it), Dionysus, Danger, Boy in luv, Attack on Bangtan, JUMP, UGH!, Tomorrow etc etc
I am loving your reactions so far! Seeing someone's amazement as they realize BTS aren't what they expected is always so satisfying. đ
BTS harder tracks (mostly earlier) include: "UGH", "Mic Drop (Steve Aoki remix)", "Burning Up (Fire)". More Agust D tracks: "Burn it", "Agust D". Check out some other harder Korean "boy bands"--Stray Kids have some real bangers including: "District 9", "Victory Song", "Side Effects", "Double Knot", "Domino". Also try GOT7's track "Hard Carry"; NCT 127' "Cherry Bomb; EXO "Wolf". For Kpop females with harder edge--rapper Jessi "What type of X"; girl groups: f(x) "Red Light" and "Electric Shock"; aespa "Next Level"; Blackpink "Kill this Love".
I only recently discovered that kpop has a more hard driving aspect (never listened to it before I found that out), so those might not be the best examples, but I find they scratch my itch for harder edges. Context--my playlists include post hardcore punk (Big Black, X, the Clash, the Melvins), 90's stuff like Husker Du, Pixies, Nirvana, Sonic Youth, grew up listening to 70's and 80's hard rock/pop like Pink Floyd, Jimie Hendrix, Van Halen. I have pretty wide tastes and also love anything I can dance to, so the harder kpop's the best of both worlds for me. I just can't bear bland, syrupy, watered down, paint-by-the-numbers music, which a lot of kpop can be. (But not the tracks I listed).
Be warned most kpop bands, even the harder ones, like to contrast hard driving sections with melodic vocal sections and dance breaks. I like the contrast, it makes the harder sections hit harder, and the melodic sections give a bit of a rest so when it hits again, it gives you that shock all over again, sort of like double the rush. But I've heard some metalheads say they really dislike that tendency, feeling like it waters down the edge. Curious which side you might fall on.
Ooooh noooo Brian! You really needed to watch the MV! It is amazingâŠit is cinematicâŠ.I can promise you wonât be disappointed. Can we have a do-over? Or watch it alone lol
I mean you can just turn on CC if you want to read itâŠ.
You can do this! đ
I am definitely going to watch the MV with CC on.
Also, not that it matters, but I'm Bryan with a Y đ
@@DestructiveMediaYT ok âŠnoted Bryan lol. I am actually Michele with one L⊠đ
Bet that was fun seeing your name misspelled always lol
@@DestructiveMediaYT exactly! No cups or pencils with my name on themâŠsuch a disappointmentâŠlol!
The KING đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đđ
I understand completely. I am the same, background in metal and 70s rock. When I became ARMY it was because of the writing and variation in styles. Just stunning musically if you look past the image that American media seems set on placing on them. True musicians.
The way I've learned to listen/watch BTS is watch a lyrics only video then watch the MV (though sometimes I still need an "explanation" video to catch the more subtle idioms and cultural differences). As you've learned already (Outro Tear) their live performances are usually the best.đ
Thank you for this reaction and for being respectfull and nice
Thank you for watching!
Hi, I am back. Good reaction, ty. It's my fav Agust D song. Jimin ult bias, Suga wrecker, OT7. sell me u saw the MV to this! Don't forget to check out the behind the scenes. Suga is fighting with himself. We have the greedy king vs. the peasant. Did he kill himself and took control? Or Did he accept himself and is now more in control. The pill popper is talking about other Korean rappers. I suggest you check doolset lyrics. There are explanation vids. Suga learned the sword in 2 days for this. I was impressed. There is a video showing him learning the sword choreo. He is amazing. His ideas are really impressive in this. The way he uses breathing and different sounds in his rap I love it. Changing tones, smiling while singing or not just wow. Plus, he is smart and knows word play well. I would look up all info vids. I remember seeing somewhere that Bang PD worked for JYP I think. And he did not like how Kpop was back than. He wanted to do his own thing. He was a music producer & songwriter and he still is. He left the company and created his own. Here he could do what he wanted. Hugs. Stay safe. -NY USA 2019 Armyđ #YouareEnough
I like that you have an open mind... love your reaction. I subscribed! đ
Thank you for subscribing, I hope you enjoy my future videos!

Oh you gotta check out the official MV of Daechwita! It is again the best kind of cinematography! So amazing!
I did! czcams.com/video/klgt25_d6Ko/video.html
Oh yea I watched that too. Hope you keep getting blown away by BTS like the rest of the world did. Definitely check out âshadowâ, Sugaâs solo song if thatâs the style of music you like. Itâs hardcore psychology interpreted and presented in the most amazing artistic form, musically, lyrically, visually. The depth and the layers are beyond words. Itâs so inspiring not just in terms of good music but it unlocks your subconscious. BTS teaches the fundamental human conditions at the deepest level with their most exciting and amazing performances period.
You have to watch the MV!!!đ€Żđ€Ż
its not really a alter ego just a additional side to him like theyre not separate if that makes sense most assume like if he does rap music solo then bts is just pop but thats not the case bts also do a lot of rap heavy music along with many other genres. bts has 3 rappers who rap in bts songs but also all 3 have solo music like suga has agust d.
bts arent a pop group people assume that due to media calling them kpop but kpop isnt a genre but a industry the same as any other industry and they have artists, groups, bands etc who do specific genres or groups like bts who do all the genres lol
bts also write and produce so daechwita was written and produced by suga/agustd
daechwita is pronounced as day- ch- ita the w is silent. daechwita is a genre of traditional korean music meaning blowing and hitting it was music that was played when the military would be marching for the king. hes basically calling himself a king because really he and bts are kings theyre the most successful artists to ever come out of korea maybe even asian in general. and they started from the group they were all poor and their label was almost bankrupt so thats why he says born a slave now a king.
please react to daechwita explained by dkdktv he can do a way better job at explaining than i am plus add more korean context.
also please react to this is bts introduction by xceleste itll help you understand them in more detail. :)
Thank you for giving me context for the song! It makes more sense now, I really like his writing style.
I'm dropping another video tomorrow that is a BTS video, I hope you enjoy it!
The MV's is so dope..The cinematic is crazy too.. I wish u watch the Mv very soon..
You rock for getting to know them. Them being from South Korea is mind blowing how I've come to love them and their music! They work hard, are honest and never disappoints. Thanks for the reaction đ đ
Thank you for watching!
Daechwita the meaning is when the king was moving around the palace itâs the music was to warn people the King was coming
These guys 100% bust through what people's preconceived notions were. If you give them a genuine chance, you'll enjoy them
I'm starting to! I've done a few more BTS reactions since this video.
The MV of the song is amazing watch it..đ
If you like this you will love BTS UGH, i highly recommend watching an explanation video afterwards. Most of BTS song have so much meaning behind them.
Daechwita is a traditional Korean military music played usually while marching or when announcing the coming of royalty or important people. If you watch the MV, you will appreciate Korean cultural references. BTS music is usually never just about one song. Itâs like a story that weaves through all of their songs. If you watch Introduction to BTS, itâs a good reference point of who they were when they started.
A lot of people probably already said this but you couldâve reacted to the MV and turn on the captions but thanks for your reaction! will be expecting more bts reactions from u! I really enjoy watching people appreciate bts more
