"THE RISE OF BANGTAN" series is a must watch for you guys to get a better understanding about BTS' journey because they are far different from other kpop groups you know.
Um, So is the rest of kpop, tf? Bts is in a whole other league than the rest of the industry, but kpop in general has a large age range too😅 (it's just that there ARE some groups or soloists that have a more targeted range, but in general kpop is multi generational). They are different from kpop for several reasons, however the age range of their fanbase is not one of them; that's just what differentiates them from "typical boyband", not kpop.
@@shanajeangedeon9060 that’s not the only thing that differentiates them, but it is definitely different for them - BTS has the most diverse fan base in terms of age, race, culture, and ethnicity! Name another Kpop group, solo artists, or band that can say the same? What other Kpop group has multiple FB and IG groups by age…..over 90mil worldwide! Yes ma’am, BTS is most certainly different!
@@EnLAre Group: Got7, that's quite easy to see once you get into them and Soloist: AleXa (She's pretty new, but still counts), once again easy to see once you're into her. I already said "Bts is in a whole other league", just that their age range isn't one of them. Plus I was talking about Kpop IN GENERAL, not specific groups or soloists.
@@shanajeangedeon9060 Kpop in general does have various ages, but the majority for one group is BTS!! You can’t take the sum of the entire genre and compare it to BTS. Cuz no one’s fan base as a whole compares! And No - Got7, nor Alexa have the same diversity in age, race, ethnic, and culture as BTS! 43% of BTS’ fan base is over age 35…the mean (average) age for Got7 is early 20’s!
Actually 25 thousand isn't trash remember it physically copies not digital especially at that time BTS label was unknown so the fact that they sold even that much for their first album is huge cuz they had not huge promotion due to their company low income.
@@Tyrellwastaken very small it was close to bankruptcy in N.O area BTS we’re so close to disbanding because the company didn’t have money so imagine how shocking it was for the korean industry to see a group from a small companies breaking records that groups from the big3 have wish for decades
There’s more 25+ fans all the way to 40-60 than “kids.” I also think the reason for this is BTS themselves are not as young as you might think they are. Jin is the oldest at 29 (30 in korean age) and the youngest, Jungkook is 24. I’m 30 myself so technically a lot of these people who are now in their mid 20’s-30’s probably “grew up” listening to BTS especially in their late teens/early 20’s. Especially long time fans ! :)
They absolutely pay homage to hiphop as their roots. It's humbling how much they appreciate and acknowledge this. I really hope you guys check out *Hip Hop Lover* (or *Hip Hop Phile)* and their cover, *Born Singer* (from J.Cole's *Born Sinner)*
@@Tyrellwastaken they work with many Hip Hop artists Check out champion , change, all night songs etc Pls watch An introduction to 7 members of bangtan by Ida s
Fun Fact - Teddy Park from YG's group 1TYM, is Blackpink's producer. He runs the YG Black Label, and he writes and produces all of Blackpinks music. Even most of their solo projects. He writes for many YG groups/artists. In the beginning, Big Hit had trainees that were focused on rap because they were going to debut a Hip Hop/Rap Group, but when the CEO changed his mind and made it a Hip Hop Idol Group (under the K Pop Umbrella) many of the trainees either opted out, got cut, or signed on as producer (Supreme Boi for example). They had the second round to fill those spots to include dancers. And none of their spots were guaranteed, except maybe RM, because the group was centered around him. I think Jimin said he was almost cut, something like 8 times. *I have a working list of songs from pre-debut to current, with correct English subtitles. If you want me to link them to you, just let me know, and I can email them to you.*
To learn more about the group, you might be interested in This is BTS by xCeleste and BTS Hardships 2013-2021 also by xCeleste. To learn more about the individuals, there’s Intro to BTS 2021 Update by Ida. There’s also a docuseries that puts BTS in a sociocultural context, and it’s called The Rise of Bangtan.
Your comments on how Black hip hop culture had an influence on kpop are spot on. South Korea has a very interesting history because they only started thriving as a democracy around the 1980s. Kpop started with Seo Taiji and the Boys in 1992 and their direct influence was from hip hop in America at the time when they got tv access. Over the years the future generations of kpop groups continued to be influenced by it including the 3rd generation which included BTS. The first few BTS albums were heavily hip hop influenced (if you look at their tweets since 2013 they’ve recommended songs by american hip hop/rap artists to their korean fans) and in every album since they have hip hop songs. BTS is a group that has voiced their absolute appreciation for and highlighted rap/hiphop artists and constantly pays homage without acting like they invented the genre. Unfortunately there are people and fans of other kpop groups that criticize BTS for trying to become “westernized” for validation….not even understanding that kpop is literally from the West. With their first English language song Dynamite BTS got so much sh*t from kpop fans for “catering to the West” meanwhile BTS was out there paying homage to Michael Jackson…. Kpop wouldn’t exist without the King of Pop. BTS is respectful unlike so many people in that industry.
If you really wanna see them "pay homage" to the culture check out hip hop lover color-coded lyrics(the song doesn't have a MV). They mentioned all the legends there which is some of the folks nowadays don't even know these hip hop legends. It showed that they know their shit and respect the culture. How many BiG aNd FaMoUs artists or specifically rappers have you seen that paying homage to the legends? Not many. So yeah that's why bts is different.
Mandatory military service is 18 mos, but right now it’s being debated whether to give BTS exemption due to their contribution to the Korean economy! And the government is concerned they may not get that money, cuz you can’t work or earn money while they’re in the military and they’re afraid the interest will diminish! RM and Suga were very steeped in rap and hip hop! RM basically used to make them almost study rap and hip hop - he used to send them playlists of rap songs and make them listen to all of them! RM has said and still says his biggest musical influence is Nas! That’s been a huge debate among fans - Nicki had 15 bars and had her verse displayed in Korean on the screen! Halsey danced an 8 count and sang the chorus…that’s it!😏
@@Tyrellwastaken Honestly, the way Koreans feel about honor, duty, and reputation - I don’t think it would be a good look if they didn’t! This is President Moons last year and the election is coming up! One of the candidates said if he wins, definitely not; but I think President Moon has been trying to think of a way for them to serve without actually serving, like in a different capacity but still call it military service! I hope he does it before he’s out of office! (Don’t mind the exclamation points - I use them for everything!) I work for the ARMY here in Korea - I’m praying if they do go, we get them at our base, which is a competitive placement! Assigned to my department…even better! 😜
Guinness Record of BTS - Most ticket sold for live-steamed concert (756,000) - Most streamed group in Spotify - Their song "BUTTER" is the -most viewed youtube music video in 24 hrs over 108M -most live viewer for the premiere of the video in youtube over 3.9M (They just replaced themselves on this records) Etc... etc... By the way jungkook the youngest member of BTS garnered 22M in real time viewers in his 1hr and 18minutes live streaming on VLIVE. Well some of the BTS members has high viewers too but Jungkook holds the highest.
I recommend you to watch a docu series named "The Rise of Bangtan". It's very well made and helps you understand where BTS is really coming from. The good, the bad, everything is talked about in it, even about KPOP in general. Playlist here: czcams.com/play/PLYP1fzRP7evQY8yQpih_gKlTMswUVGF3f.html Thanks for the reaction!
This is the best short documentary. There is another series that takes you from the very beginning of Kpop and into BTS. It is called The Rise of Bangtan. It is produced by an Army and translated by Army's around the world. You should check it out.
Please react to This is BTS: Introduction to BTS by sceleste and BTS Harships 2013-2021 by xceleste. You'll get some information not addressed in other videos.
I'm glad you guys took the time to react to this it shows so much about their musical journey. i want to write down below some suggestions for their songs but given how much there are now (230 in total i think) its hard to choose which ones as well as live performances. Not many artists have both VERSATILITY with their music and are ACTUALLY good at it(some artists may have songs in different genres but they music is just meh), not saying there wont be some songs you don't like or prefer from BTS, every one has their own taste. But in all, along with some of the Title tracks you wrote down like: Blood Sweat and Tears, I Need You(Original Version) and Life Goes On, you should definitely check out their B-sides those are in my opinion the true gems, (from Hip hop to R&B to Neo soul and jazz, rock, EDM, Latin pop, etc if there's a genre you wanna hear we'll suggest): [For these use color coded lyric videos to react to these BTS songs] 134340, Paradise, Jump, Look Here, Just One Day, Lie, Rain, The Stars, Pied Piper, Love Maze, Louder than bombs, Outro Tear, Ddaeng, ugh, Baepsae, Spinebreaker, Dis-ease, and more Also since you said you like V and his solo song you need to check out his tracks Singularity and Stigma (both Neo soul/R&B) really shows the range of his voice.
There were other trainees who didn’t make it. Big Hit didn’t just go with talent they went for passionate people. The people who were ready to eat , sleep, drink music and the group.
BTS was quick to have comeback albums in their early years coz RM and Suga both have hundreds of melodies written prior to their debut as BTS. Also, while RM could write at one song a month… Suga could almost write one song a day depends on when inspiration strikes him.
Facts: #BTS is the 1st band in history to earn 5 number 1 debut it Billboard Hot 100 (they ties with Ariana Grande and Drake for the most number 1 debuts in history) #BTS achieves of the six (6) number 1 hit on Billboard Hot 100 among all artist since the Beatles (1964-1966) #BTS is the artist with the most number #1 hits on Billboard Hot 100 in the 2020s decade (6) #My Universe become the first collaboration with 2 lead groups to reached #1 on Billboard Hot 100 (Coldplay & BTS) By the way song BUTTER by BTS has been #1in Billboard Hot 100 for 10 weeks (longest #1 song in Hot 100 this year)
I subscribed to your channel I can see the true authentic in your reactions. I came here for our boyz BTS only. I don’t or like or watch any other groups like black pink. Please keep doing videos and reactions of BTS. Thanks guys❤️

The Korean War started in 1950 and in 1953 a ceasefire was agreed on. So in essence the war never ended it is still a war at this time. In fact the South Korean military has found and exploded and caved in secret invasion tunnels dug under the border in the last decade that's ten years ago.
The reason many of you are not exposed to BTS, is bc of the gatekeeping of the western industry : no radio play, being the last performers at award shows etc etc.
you've reacted to RM AKA rap monster set the RM doesn't use the name rap ....e not for the last four or five years in the beginning he was rap monster RM meant rap monster. he change that now RM stands for real me. and it has stood for real me since about 2017
you're supposed to be play BTS fan but you don't know that the average age of army fans are 35 to 49 the BTS documentary by sugar and spice has BTS fans giving their ages ranging from 45 to 64. What about the BTS army grannys that are in their 80s
Im still angry that they didnt win the grammy but we hope we win this year😅

Are you kidding me? There are not many people from Philly listening to KPOP? You guys have been living under the rock.

I am 25
