BTS has deep roots in underground hiphop.
Since they were supposed to be a hip-hop group before they became idols. Which makes sense.
One of the (many) things that's so fascinating about them is how they could have gone in such a different direction... but if they had I don't think the world would ever have heard of them. From where they started, going the 'kpop boyband' route and playing that game is the only possible way they could've had even a remote chance of reaching the wider world. In many ways they have never fit that mould... but it means there's this huge huge contrast between how they appear to people who know their history and discography vs. the surface image people get from the outside.
Bts started cuz a dude in his teens being the top student ( which in SK that’s A LOT) was realizing that he was feeling at ease when he was writing lyrics rather than writing reports or essays for school.
STRAY KIDS IS TRE KINGS LEGENDARY OF KPOP
@@himaririku9254 Oh himaririku, my old friend... even here? How many years have you been spamming Bangtan videos now :') Also what did G-Dragon do to disappoint you, I thought you were ride-or-die for that man but I see you have a new fave, how fickle!
Don't be put off by the crazies. As you can see from the comments, 99.9% of ARMY love it when channels find and enjoy BTS music. When you have a fanbase in the millions worldwide, just by the law of averages you will attract the oddballs too! There are some that listen to a BTS track for views but just looking at your channel history you guys really love music and lyrics.
BTS announced their hiatus roughly a year before enlistment so that gave them time to go off an explore and release official solo work (The 3 rappers had already released full albums but as they were not official they are called 'mixtapes'). I honestly can't wait for you to get into their solo work. You will really see how diverse they are.
ARMY loves to experience discovering BTS all over again with new reactors - we are jealous!💜
Yess, that,s what i was gonna say, i sure wish i could listen to all of it as it was the first time all over again 🥺
BTS is not the usual boy band or even k-pop. Their roots are in hip hop and rap, even though they have widen to cover multiple musical genres now. Their massive 10 years discography is impressive! You'll hardly find any two similar songs or any song that is bad. They wrote most of their songs themselves, if you are wondering. They are real artists and very talented, unlike any out-of-the factory poppy pretty boys boybands. With all talented seven members on their own right, they are a powerhouse and their brotherhood is so lovely to watch. They are now serving in mandatory military enlistment, but will all be back by 2025. Before serving, each member did their solo project. And each project are vastly different from each other. If you don't know they are from the same group, you wouldn't have guessed.
And they are known for their great music, awesome dancing, jaw-dropping performances, beautiful vocals (they actually sound better live than recorded), and deep lyrics. Their songs covers positive and serious themes like mental health, loving yourself, striving against odds, societal expectations, psychological concepts, etc.
They are comprised of 3 rapper (among the best rappers in South Korea), and 4 vocalists. Two of them are actually trained as dancers. But they are also songwriters and producers. Even for other artists. They have amassed around a thousand awards over their 10 years career, if not more.
Plus 12 Billboard Awards, 31Guinness World Records and 5 Grammy nominations, they even smashed the Beatles Record as the only artist to have 3 number 1 Album in less than a year and they did it a wee bit quicker than the Beatles achieved it. This in a time when people don't tend to buy physical album anymore.

This song is inspired by a quote from Martha Graham: "...a dancer dies twice---once when they stop dancing...and this death is the more painful."
Their lyrics is about how they are scared of one day loosing their passion as artists for music and since music is such a big part of who they are it would feel as if they are dying which if you take the quote into consideration would feel much more painful than actual death to them.
They have an orchestral version of this song with a performance video of a professional contemporary dance crew.
You should check out the (2021 Festa) BTS Room live, it’s a live mashup of a few songs and it gives a nice overview of their song along the years and their live vocals

The dancer you see doing solos is Jimin. He is a trained contemporary dancer and it shows!
BTS always said they would served when called upon as every other abled man in South Korea. Jin was the first to go in in Dec 2022 and is due to be discharged next month! J hope went in April 2023 and will get out this October. The rest went in at the end if 2023 and will be discharged June if 2025. They are supposed to get back together as a group then, so we look forward to more music and hopefully a tour after that!!!💜
The seemingly discordant instrumentation in the beginning is a traditional Korean instrument, a 12 stringed gayageum which resembles a Japanese koto. BTS occasionally incorporates traditional Korean instruments in their production of their songs just as they incorporate traditional Korean clothes into their on stage clothing.
They're not just best singer , they're everything,best friend,best family,beshuman for me
BTS debuted as a HIP HOP IDOL group, not a typical boy band. It was uncommon in the South Korean Idol system (K-POP Industry) for the IDOLs to write and produce their own music, and do it with HIP HOP, and not just HIP HOP, it was USA Western Classic HIp Hop styles. They got a lot of push back and hate because of it, especially because RM and SUGA came from underground hip hop before signing with their label (Big Hit Entertainment) in 2010. BTS debuted on June 13, 2013, and they didn't get their first music show win until their second year, where they won their first #1 award. (How Korean IDOLS measure their success is to win #1 on a music show). Then they started succeeding more at the award shows and were starting to get international recognition. They were with a small independent label that almost went bankrupt, and that win in 2015 saved them from having to disband. I won't go into their story because that is a book of information, but just know that they dealt with many obstacles, hate, racism, xenophobia, rumors and lies from the media and the K-Pop system. BTS and ARMY survived it together and came out stronger. Because of that, the relationship between BTS and ARMY is very strong and special. And ARMY's can be very protective of BTS because of it. Thanks for reacting to Black Swan, it's the song that made me ARMY. I resonated with the lyrics.
Martha Graham Quote:
*"A Dancer dies Twice, once when they stop dancing. And the first death is the more painful."*
BTS's black swan was inspired by this quote and the movie Black Swan. RM wrote is and he said he cried when he was writing it. It's about the fear of losing your passion for your art, if someday you no longer can write the lyrics, or dance, or create music. It's also about learning about how to accept the darker sides of yourself (shadows) and knowing that in order to be whole, you need to accept the dark, undesireable sides of yourself, because they are a part of you also. You can learn to accept that and not let it control you. I think that is the symbolism in the last scene. Jungkook waited for his shadow to be under control, and then he walked away.
BTS are known for crossing and fusing many different genre's into their discography, but they will always stay true to their roots, which are Hip Hop and RnB.
💜
Bts will be coming back fully mid 2025 💜
Jin is the first to come back next month . Every Army will be celebrating his comeback 💜
Jhope will be out in october and the rest are in mid 2025
siiii ya estamos esperando el regreso de JINNI💜💜
It's not that they aren't technically a "boy band"... they are. The problem lies in the connotation that phrase has in the Western mind-set. We hear "boy band" and automatically assign an esthetic and sound; we place them into a known contextual box before ever listening to them and when we do, it's with a biased ear. This idea of what a boy-band is/should be actually prevents people from even listening at all or colors their opinion while listening and it can take awhile for them to admit BTS is NOT what they considered a bb to be. It also makes reactors assume the most surface level meaning of songs instead of looking into the lyrics and considering the deeper meanings of their songs.
Thank you for realizing this sooner rather than later. :)
Nicely said!
I came from decades of boy bands.. starting with New kids on the block, take that, boyzone etc... I skipped the 1d phenomenon as I was in my 20s? ( I don't know their active years) And focusing on my job and adult life.
I found BTS in my mid 30s mentioned as a boy band. My first thought, the very first one when I clicked on the Fake Love MV was " this doesn't sound like a boy band, the production is too detailed for a boy band... " And "the MV looks too elaborate for a boy band (the attention to details) and definitely they don't dance like a boy band"
I was really confused. So I put them on the BTS box (nothing or no one like them) .
So refreshing and unique.
💜
Jimin is the BlackSwan ⚫️
What is even more unbelievable about BTS is they are better live. A lot of the depth can be lost in the mix. Their range of music is incredible, never the same, never boring, always musically different. Also, their older music is making a comeback hitting the top of the Billboard charts. Please investigate them more, they are worth it. Mic Drop, Fire, Dope are faster.
I applaud you guys for stepping out of the box and listening to this. I really like your graphical layout so we can see the dancing and still watch your expressions. And the text at the top. Well done. BTS is more complex so I like to watch and learn from the reactors
Thank you for reacting to BTS. Like so many older BTS ARMY (I am 65), I found them at a time when I was depressed and feeling very cut off from joy. It is not just their music that brightens my life, it is THEM! Their interactions with one another in their You Tube content, their humor, their humility. They are unique within the pantheon of music artists. I love them even though my husband and my family think I am a little crazy to be so aligned with a "Korean boy band". But they are not that. They are BTS. Angels. Unwitting angels changing hearts and minds.
I completely relate to your story. I am 66 and my family thinks I am a bit crazy too. But these 7 amazing young men make me happy and give me motivation. I have already told my family that when they come back and tour I will go wherever I have to in the world to see them. It just means that much to me. Just to be amongst like minded people watching/hearing these little miracles.... Stay well!💜💜
My sister in law, who laughed behind my back, has now become Army herself…finding them now and fallen into the rabbit hole. She’s mad at me for not trying to “convince” her sooner😂. I told her, you find them when you are ready, I’m not here to force anyone to love them like I do.
@@whisper4423snap, 66 as well, same family reaction, I have told my husband that I will be going wherever I can get a ticket, so be ready. These wonderful young men have given me a new lease on life and brought music back for me. 💜
“Feeling cut off from joy” is a very accurate description of how depression feels like to me. Even though I am not a musician/artist I “saw myself” (as the lyrics say) in this song, because it made me realize I *HAD* stopped enjoying music. I’d hear it if someone else played it, but not really listen or even seek it out. Fake Love was the first song to grab my attention in YEARS, and it’s only gotten better from there.
Yes, I'm 63 only just discovered them last year and have not stopped watching, listening to them. I have been actively studying them and, they are true Starseeds doin, living loving what they do best sharing that frequency of Love Joy Truth and Freedom in their music. My Godson, 5 yrs is also completely in awe of them, he always asks me to put on BTS, they are definitely universal on many levels, I Purple U🤩🤩🙏🙏💜💜🫰🫰
The live for this is incredible. I understand your desire to to see new music every time, but try a live for one their songs. It is something to see.
Thanks for your wonderful reaction. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
This song explores the profound and deeply personal fears that artists face regarding the loss of their passion for their craft. The song serves as a raw and introspective reflection on the struggles and vulnerabilities that come with the pursuit of artistic expression.
One of the most striking lines, "If this can no longer resonate, no longer make my heart vibrate, then like this may be how I die my first death," speaks to the fear of emotional and artistic death-the moment when an artist feels disconnected from their work and can no longer draw meaning or fulfillment from it.
BTS uses "Black Swan" to share a universal message with their listeners: that the fear of losing one's passion is a natural part of the creative process, but it’s also an experience that can lead to deeper understanding and renewed inspiration. Through their introspective lyrics, haunting music, and expressive choreography, BTS captures the essence of the artist's journey, making "Black Swan" a deeply resonant and powerful piece.
The choreography for "Black Swan" is equally significant in conveying the song's message. The contemporary dance movements are fluid and expressive, symbolizing the ebb and flow of an artist's emotions. The performance often includes movements that depict struggle, surrender, and the quest for liberation, visually representing the inner turmoil of an artist grappling with their fears.
Thanks for reacting again. I appreciate the full screen. For senior fans like me it is more enjoyable to watch. Looking forward to your next BTS reaction.💜
BTS were originally going to be a hiphop only group... it wasn't until they released I need You in 2015 , 2yrs after their debut, that their music changed a bit and became a mix of melodic and hip hop...
That (mix of melodic and hiphop) has been present since the first album in the hidden track Path and continued in songs from ohrul82 like coffee, skul luv affair like just one day and from dark and wild like 24/u=heaven . The only thing that changed in 2015 was their image, their sound did begin to include more electronic influences, but the mix of melodic and hiphop was not something new in 2015.
It’s telling when people talk about the “shift” in BTS sound. Tells you don’t listen to the whole album and only listen to main tracks. BoraCity Magazine did an interesting video essay on this topic.
@@TheSnoozeUntold yuuup….
@@TheSnoozeUntoldI loved that video
Blood sweat and tears is a must watch
The first live performance we saw was of them on James Corden with this insanely gorgeous blue set that used light to make the floor look like water while they did perform barefoot. They have also performed a more orchesterally scored version with a couple of inches of water on the floor for an award show.
Don't worry, it's good to hear an honest reactions. I used to have the same idea about boyband as you guys, but I found out BTS is totally different from any boyband or k-pop stuff and they're such a great performer and storyteller.
Hi guys, thanks for reacting to BTS. In my humble opinion, I think everyone involved with music should at least once in their life take a look at the work of this historic group, regardless of their musical tastes. Skipping a little about their music, take a look at the video of the boys' military enlistment, there are three videos. The first by Jin, the second by J.Hope and the third by RM, V, Jimin and Jungkook. What I mean by that, it's a little shortcut for you who are entering this rabbit hole to know the friendship and affection of these seven boys who learned to respect, admire and love each other unconditionally through work, believe me, they are real and examples of human beings.
Kudos for not being scared off by our over enthusiasm for our guys! Enjoyed the last reaction and this one. Black Swan is truly a masterpiece. It was part of a global project of BTS to promote local artists that got canceled sadly due to Covid because it was supposed to accompany their world tour. Borahae 💜💜💜
Hi 👋 With "Black Swan," BTS divulge their most harrowing shadow yet, one that any person who lives for making art faces: losing the passion for creating.
"A dancer dies twice - once when they stop dancing, and this first death is the more painful." Martha Graham. This quote is at the root of the sentiments inlaid in "Black Swan." Much like a dancer feels purposeless when they can no longer express themselves through dance, BTS contends that the day that music no longer fills them with the same passionate fire as before, or even if there came a day when they stopped creating music - what they feel is their life's purpose - it would feel like death.
RM sings, "If this can no longer resonate / No longer make my heart vibrate / Then this may be how I die my first death."
Once again, BTS affirm that despite their countless record-breaking accolades, the wealth they've amassed, and their ever-increasing fame, they are artists. What means most to them is the art - music, visuals, dances - that they create.
💜
Have a great day.
BTS started as a hip-hop group!!!!!
Listen to their first 2 songs.
The music is meant to sound like classic Korean instruments, like an erhu and gayageum. I love that BTS incorporates traditional instruments.
Both the movie Black Swan and this mv are based on the famous ballet Swan Lake. It's about 2 swans, one evil/black and one good/white. In most modern productions, both roles are danced by one dancer. It symbolizes the struggle within between light and dark. BTS has a whole series of songs based on the shadowself.
😘💜🫶🏻🫰🏻
P.s. the white balls are the company logo.😂
The production by PDogg (amazing producer who has been with them from the start) uses the autotune to make it sound like their voices are coming from deep under the ocean, which they reference in the lyrics. We also classify this song as a classical piece as there is a classical instrumental version with it's own MV featuring a dance trope only. It's stunning. The members also reacted to that which is adorable.
This song is from the album Map of the Soul: 7 which is inspired by Carl Jung's philosophy of the persona, the shadow and the ego. This is one of the "shadow" songs onthe album hence the shadow disappearing at the end. The album preceding this one is Map of the Soul: Persona. MOTS7 features all those Persona songs and then new ones reflecting the shadow and the ego.
They are barefoot because it is inspired by the Martha Graham quote. She is considered the "creator" of modern or contemporary dance and they traditionally are all danced using bare feet as opposed to the ballet shoes.
Thanks for reacting to BTS!
I would like to recommand you ON kinectic manifesto film, Mic Drop, Blood Sweat and Tears.
They have 300+ songs as group and a lots of solo stuffs too. My fav are often not the title tracks, their B-sides are awsome!
They are not an ordinary group, cannot be labeled as "boy band" or anything else. They are BTS!!!!
Hi there. Am new to your channel. Thank you for being receptive qnd open to listening to new music that you wouldn't ordinarily listen to. We appreciate that a lot. Thanks for your natural and sincere sharing of thoughts about 'Black Swan'. Am sure numerous ARMYS have clued you in on what its about so i won't go there. Yea, I am ARMY, so i shall be looking through reactions to our boys' music. Loads to react to, that's for sure! I'll check out your previous ones...because i liked what you honestly shared about this one. See you in the next reaction, and thank you again. Take care!
I would love to see your reaction to the live version of Run BTS from their Busan concert in Oct 2022. The band they had backing them were amazing, and the way they chugged that song along was phenomenal. Old rocker here too, started paying attention to BTS in the fall of 2022.
Suga did a fantastic collab with the lead Singer of Korean Rock group The Rose (just finished US tour and Coachella [BACK TO ME] on Snooze. I think you guys might like that song and The Rose. #Jindependence Day on June 12, Jin the eldest member (The Astronaut with Cold Play), has his enlistment ending. Also if you want a SOLID laugh Cameron Philips did a hilarious Black Swan Dub video. LOL
Thank you for reacting to BTS. They are incredible artists, an anomaly that can never be replicated. They have worked long & hard and paid their dues. Every bit of their success is hard earned & well deserved.
BTS’ albums are thematic. Black Swan is in the Map of the Soul series. This series encompasses the psychological concepts of Carl Jung. Jung believed that there are three parts to our personalities: the persona, shadow, and ego. Black Swan is in the shadow realm. Our shadow selves are where our doubts and fears lie. Here, BTS is singing about their fear of losing their passion for music.
All of BTS's early work leaned heavily into hiphop and rap. On their first single all 7 members rap. They soon started experimenting with all genres of music and their albums are all different from each other. They have more variety than any other band.
The inspiration for the video was a Martha Graham quote. “a dancer dies twice - once when they stop dancing, and this first death is the more painful.” The concern that they, as performers, might also reach a point when the music no longer moved them to perform.
I love this! So this entire Album is based off of Jungian Psychology. You can see the motifs of the Jungian archetypes throughout. (Archetypes like Shadow, Ego, Self, Amina and Animus etc) In this music video there's a lot of the Shadow archetype. The album is Called "Map of the Soul" Which is based of the book by Murray Stein who wrote about Carl Jung's Psychology. The Map of the Soul album expounds upon how we have multiple layers to our human Psyche. And at time our different selves can be at odd against each other but it's all apart of who we are and how we must balance those different parts out Psyche. Each BTS album is connected to each other to tell a bigger story. Many time in the stories of their video they play individuals but at tie they are playing the same person if that make sense. But yeah there is so much symbolism in just about every music video that connects it all to a bigger story.
Song is about burnout and references the movie - driving yourself crazy to perfect your art. They all start as mostly white swans and become black swans over the course of the video.
MV of Fire!!!!!!! Early BTS, but shows their youth angst and this video is 🔥!!!!!!
This is what I call, ART!
The song is about how they love music and performing but they fear the day will come when they no longer enjoy doing it and reference it as this being their first death. They struggle but the try not to get dragged down to that point they fear.
It's a song about an artist's fear of loosing his love for his art
This was my first song I heard from them because they came out on Jimmy Fallon. After that I looked it up on CZcams and I became an Army instantly. Jimmy Fallon loves Jimin. lol. He has had them on his show several times.
I really suggest you watch On (Kinetic Manifesto) next to see another type of style that BTS does (they have tried a million different styles which is what makes them so masterful). After that maybe a live performance of Butterfly (because it shows off the vocal line more). For a more ‘boy band’ type feel I definetly suggest the 2021 Festa Room Live, where they mashup several of their songs and you can see them interacting a little more. I think you may enjoy the live performances of airplane pt. 2 and Run BTS as well! Their entire discography is fantastic so keep going down the rabbit whole, it’s always worth it with them.
Thanks guys. Enjoyed your reaction. 😊
Indeed, BTS started off as a Hiphop group in 2013. You’re right, this song is about struggle: what happens when artists lose their passion/vision. The dancer dies a first painful death when he stops dancing (quote from Martha Graham). And yes, interpretative dance is part of their repertoire, although their usual choreo is more Hiphop. Do check out Born Singer (mash LIVE From 2015/2017) to understand their drive to make music. See link below. They performed it LIVE again for their 9th anniversary in 2022, with a chill mature vibe.

Love BTS, i am 43 Years old, recommend On kinetic manifesto, Mic drop, idol, Fire AND guide members tailor mari's.
well actually BTS already had delayed their enlistment for 2 years.. normally in S.Korea u have to enlist at most 28 years old but Jin the oldest was 30 when he went 2 years ago..he is getting descharge in June actually and probably will work in his solo album (like they others did before enlistment)
They didn't delay it themselves, there is law made artists who got culture merit award from the government.
Nailed the screen with the small mimimes. Keep that format!
In S Korea it's not really considered a "draft" . It's an obligation and a duty. You have to realize that Seoul (the capital) is only some 20 or so miles away from the border with N Korea. It's a constant threat.
😢actually, SK and NK are still in a cold war.
While I live all their music videos, I love their live performances the most. They are meant to perform. These guys are artists to their core. This is one of my favorite songs although I have many. Almost 60 year old Army here. Their lyrics speak to me and I love how anyone can find meaning even beyond the original. Jin who is the oldest will be returning soon from the military with the remaining guys coming back over the next year. We are living for 2025. In the meantime we are reminiscing, enjoying people still finding them, and enjoying the new stuff they have left for us. RM ‘s album is the latest.
BTS has 20 albums as a group and 12 (13 later this month) solo albums among members. Every one of them is a super star on their own, and together their synergy is magic. They also have many other singles, OSTs, collabs, and unofficial songs. Hundreds and hundreds of songs and all of them are amazing art. There are no skips in their discography.
New here, I'd love to see you reacting to more BTS. I fell into this awesome rabbit hole four years ago and have zero regrets!
They are all excellent and complete artists. Their solos are all masterpiece! Most BTS lyrics are messages of empowerment, self-confidence, and resilience given in different genres, rhythms, structures... One thing I can assure you: in their huge production (400+ songs), there is not even a single bad song. Of course, some can not be your cup of tea, but the quality is undeniable.
Their MVs are other must. Most are shorts movies because they are storytellers, good ones!
MIC DROP, Next please!!!!! #BTS💜

Pls react to on MV, and RUN and mic drop in BUSAN, Their concerts are crazy, and that one has a live band, you're going to love it.
Yall should listen to their live performances, they almost always use a live band.
Definitely try to watch their live performances
Love suga in this song soo much ❤❤❤❤
BTS initially started as a hiphop group, and their core is really hiphop. They explored diff genres and grow their craft with their hard work and willingness to adapt to change. Their first 2 members come from the underground hiphop, RM (the leader) and SUGA. And their 3rd member came from street dancing background. so their hiphop influence is really solid.
Black Swan is from their Map of the Soul: 7 album which dive into Carl Jung’s Psychological theory of the Persona, Shadow & Ego. so this is part of the shadow aspect, their fear of losing their passion for music which they love the most. Another great song in this album is ON, pls check out the Kinetic Manifesto Film video (which is more like their performance vid coz there is also another vid, the official MV which is story line based). thank you for your reaction 💜
I think you would like to react to Mic Drop from BTS.
Still my favorite song from BTS, add in the beautiful aesthetics of the MV and it's a Work of Art that will always be relevant 🖤
Can’t wait for more BTS reactions. Love your commentary and respect, thank you!!!
Felicitări BTS cei mai talentați frumoși perfecți tare dor de ei ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Really enjoyed your open-minded thoughtful reaction! And don't worry, I know ARMY can be a bit intense bombarding you with info, but we don't expect you to know everything straight away, just take it at your own pace :)
You should really watch BTS's "Fire" or my forever favorites "Mic Drop" and "ON".
Black Swan is about the fear of losing passion for music, and the relationship between artists and their craft. The song's lyrics compare the loss of love for music to death, with the line "If this can no longer resonate, no longer make my heart vibrate, then like this may be how I die my first death
Thanks for your reaction. This song is about them loosing passion for music, that’s why he says that is the way he may die his first death. We can relate to that so much in our lives, getting burned out at work or not being able to enjoy things we used to love.
I’ll definitely check out your band on Spotify, I’m very curious
Les recomiendo Mic drop y run concierto en busan, suena mucho rock
As an old hard-rock, metal fan and rather new k-pop fan, the one artist is on the exact line where all my senses are satisfied. If you have time check the album D-Day by Agust D (Suga from BTS). Or even better the movie of his tour. I watched the movie in the cinema and honestly it was off charts. I would love to see your reaction to that like soooo much.
the extended version of fake love actually has a lot more lore in the video as well as being the rock version
JIMIN ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰THE BLACK AND WHITE SWAN
This song was prereleased as a MV before this. Watch the Black Swan Art Film. It was accompanied with classical instruments and it was daned by a ballet/ contemporary dance troupe. They danced it with bare feet.
There is a behind the scenes reaction video of BTS watching this art film. They commented how Jimin should dance the lead like in the art film. They knew that Jimin's training in contemporary dance was why he should do all the interpretive dancing.
BTS debut THEIR version of this song along with their dance choreography on the Late Late show with James Corden. This MV was then larer made in this theater and them dancing bare feet as the official music MV.
They got the opportunity to not get drafted but our humble kings said we are not above the law we will still be doing our duty to our country! Mad respect!!!!
And they are continuing to collect accolades there as well!!!
Felt the need to come in and correct this, they never had the opportunity to NOT serve, rather that after a while of politicians using BTS' name to just try to get a push on their political agendas on exemptions and as it got closer and closer to Jins (the oldest members) 28th birthday (which you have to enlist by) it was eventually decided by the Korean Government that artists who receive the honours of getting the Order of Cultural Merit (which BTS had) or an achievement of equal value would be able postpone their enlistment by two years. Jin used that extra time for the company to plan more for them being gone, as (this part is speculation but I fully believe they were hoping for exemption even if it was never said) the government HAD been waiving around talks of exemption for a while but it never went anywhere, only eventually resulting in that two year postponement amendment. But Jin also cancelled and enlisted before the two years had completed leaving for the military on his own terms, the other members following soon after.
Please stop spreading this misinformation. They were NOT exempted‼️
@@Grrness you are correct. I believe that if they had won the Grammy that they deserved to win they would have been exempt. Wonder how much the other companies paid to make sure that never happened, they thought that with them gone the other groups would take over 😂😂😂 wrong 😑
I know you're very new but BTS have solid roots in Hiphop so that will be where you're getting that from. Maybe you should hear their first offical single No more Dream.
You need to see ON, MANIFESTO. IT IS AWESOME.
Yep. South Korea drafted the #1 selling artist in the world. 🤷♀️
BTS (also Bangtan Boys; Korean: 방탄소년단 Bangtan Sonyeondan) is a South Korean boy band consisting of seven members, formed in 2010 by Big Hit Entertainment and debuted in 2013. The name of the band Bangtan Sonyeondan is a combination of 방탄 (“bulletproof”) and 소년단 (“boy scout”). In July 2017, the meaning Beyond the Scene was added to the acronym “BTS”. Their fans are organized into a fan club called “A.R.M.Y” (아미), which stands for “Adorable Representative M.C for Youth”.

Please react to "A Guide to BTS Members ....the Bangtan 7"💜.they weren't drafted...they enlisted....everyone goes
Gracias por reaccionar a BTS, los chicos están en el servicio militar y se reúnen todos hasta el 2025. Les recomiendo que no solo reaccionen a ellos como grupo, sino también como solistas. Todos son geniales. BTS ARMY FOREVER!!💜💜💜💜🇨🇴💜
The dancing in black swan is Contemporary and the bare feet signify that.
You should watch MMA 2019 award show. You will not believe what you will see, it is awesome.
Jin is back in next month J Hope in October and the other 5 come back in June 2025 however they've all worked extra hard to write, compose and produce things for us that are being slowly released while they do their 18months of military duty.
Reajam mais ao BTS, levando em consideração as letras das músicas e não só ao visual. 💜
Thanks for checking out BTS.
About the boy band thing, you will find that ARMY doesn't like for BTS to be lumped into any certain category. That can mean boy bands or Kpop. BTS is BTS. They are their own thing. Also, they didn't start as a boy band. They started as a hip hop group. You will find a lot of hip hop influence in their music.
Black Swan não é uma música, é um sentimento.
Che k Mic Drop
Fire as it is literally 🔥🔥🔥

Dope as it is literally dope 💯💯💯
[4:36] It was the original Big Hit motto : Music & Artist for Healing
[5:25] The shadow play starts. Shadows have diffrent meaning with different members. Suga (rapper, and second member), who starts, has a full song named Shadow where shadow is his (mainly?) professional and private (less?) greed.
[5:28] "Very hiphoppy" We continue next to RM (BTS's leader, first member, around who the whole group was formed originally as a rap agroup, rapper)
- shadow play continues with RM.
[8:22] Their lyric "Film it now" is not a typo, but do you hearhow they pronoune it it sounds more like "feeling it now" I'm kinda betting it is double meaning if how they live camera to their face often 20/7/360 we see everything they feel, often live.
[10 :20] Youngest JK ends the shadow play. He is BTS's main vocal and also part of the dance-line.
Song is about artist losing their passion or skill to do their art. Classical string instumental version of the song starts with the quote from Martha Graham : “A dancer dies twice - once when they stop dancing, and this first death is more painful.” The lyrics also refer to this quote in the beginning.

There is also pairing song to this song about (musician) losing ones art, the other-side-of-the-coin -song: Dionysus, where the artist is drunkenly in love with their art when everything goes perfectly..
Thank you so much!
Please more BTS
More BTS please 💜
It’s about there fear of losing there love of making music.
BTS was originally intended to be a Hip Hop group. The first 2 members, RM and Suga started out in underground rappers.the third member added, JHope started as an underground dancer, and he learned rapping from RM and Suga, so a lot of their songs have deep hip hop roots. The four vocal line singers, Jin, Jimin, V, And Jungkook were added. Jin never sang or dances, he stared out wanting to be an actor. Jimin started out as a contemporary dancer. bTS always maintained that they would serve their mandatory military service, but other K-pop companies tired to use BTS as a rallying point to have K-pop starts exempt. I think you would like Mic Drop the Steve Aoki remix. If you want to see what the rap line is like, Outro Tear, Cyphers 1-4, Ugh, and Ddaeng are great starting points. The vocal line you can’t go wrong with The Truth Untold, House of Cards, and Zero O’Clock. BTS will have sub units within their discography, were maybe some songs are only rap line songs, others only vocal line, and a combination of both. Plus they each have their own solo work, which is amazing. RM I would suggest Joke, Do You, Wild Flower. Suga ( who goes by August D - Suga spelled backwards with DT representing Daegu Town where he is from) you can’t go wrong with his self titled track August D, Snooze, and his trilogy- Daechwita, Haegeum, and Amygdala JHope Daydream, Arson, What If, and More. Vocal line: Jin- Moon, The Astronaut, Epiphany, and Abyss. Jimin - Set Me Free, Lie, Serendipity, and Filter. V (Taehyung) - Slow Dancing, Love Me Again, Singularity, and Stigma Jungkook- Standing Next to You, Begin, My Time, 7, and Stay Alive. Honestly this is just the tip of the rabbit hole you go down in with BTS, as they have a lot to see. I would also recommend watching 2021 Festa.
Love the song and your reactions
Bts started cuz a dude in his teens being the top student ( which in SK that’s A LOT) was realizing that he was feeling at ease when he was writing lyrics rather than writing reports or essays for school.
BTS, yes! Continue!💜💜💜
New subscriber here. I'm looking forward for more reaction for BTS performance. Please check their live performance also. All their musics have a deep meaning. That's why we army's love them and support them.Thank you so much
Thanks for your reaction , you guys are fun .
Some BTS recommendation :
*Run bulletproof live or dance practice
*Bulletproof the eternal
*ON kinetic manifesto film
*Louder than bombs
By the way your song (in my head)is good 👍
Thank you💜
Notice how the production on the vocals, especially at the beginning, are somewhat muffled and compressed, as though underwater. Their production often has clever hidden meanings and synergy with lyrics. This idea is echoed in lyrics where they reference being stuck on the ocean floor, so, in the dark and under pressure. At the start they are on the stage under a spotlight with a large balance of dark space above them and around them, again as though stuck with the weight of the dark ocean pressing down on them. Choreography also echoes this feeling of being stuck, feet dragging, despair and struggle, as well as swan moves. Two of the members wear corsets, further echoing this idea of being under pressure. Notice also the driving beat like a heartbeat pounding in their eras as with fear, as they also mention in the lyrics.
The shadows represent their fears. In the beginning they are large, overwhelming, oppressive and moving on their own. Throughout the video, the shadows become more manageable, smaller and more integrated back into the guys. At the end the final shadow folds into itself and Jungkook walk out confidently. Also, their outfits go from white under a harsh spotlight in the beginning, to black silhouettes at the end, as they become the black swans and their shadows reintegrate. Similarly, Jin's reflections in the mirrors do not move with him, are not under his control. A black swan as a concept means a sudden, detrimentally life changing event, and the film Black Swan is about a dancer driven mad by the pressures of her work. Both meanings apply in this song.
Love the pitched out of tune comment. Fits hand in glove with the messaging in the lyrics.
