Thanks for watching the video - Zábava
I'll never get over the lyric
" I grew a flower that can't be bloomed in a dream that can't come true"
RM said this in an interview : "Basically, our albums are like a four-part series; [the series] is about love. So [Love Yourself: Tear] is part three and it's like a turning point. We're saying that if you're not true to yourself, your love won't last forever. The love could be person to person, it could be between me and myself,"
I don’t understand If you’re talking about the love yourself series. Bc if that’s the case the ly series its a trilogy about love and tear it’s the second part.
In her there’s the stage where you fall in love
In tear you realize that the relationship isn’t working anymore
In answer you learn that before falling for someone else you should love yourself.
@@ohibo7676 I'm just stating what Namjoon said in an interview. He probably included face yourself in the series as well.
@@nim7121 oh that makes sense. Thanks.
@@ohibo7676 @Nim Love Yourself series was supposed to be 4 albums, they didn't released LY: Wonder bc they didn't have enough music or some other reason that I don't know of, but Euphoria was supposed to be part of the LY: Wonder album, but in the end was included in LY:Answer

On the wall it also says “I’m Fine” but when you turn the screen in the reverse it’s written “Save me.” We say we’re fine on social media but deep down we need help and saving.
I don’t think it’s directly related to social media. In the love yourself series fake love it’s where the relationship comes to an end because it’s getting toxic. I believe that the I’m fine/save me message it’s about pretending to be fine for your loved one but you’re destroying yourself to make them happy so deep down you want to be saved.
React to “paradise” there is no MV but lyrics are so comforting, everyone needs to listen to it, also 134340(PLUTO) LIVE💜
This song is also part of the storyline! But yes, the lyrics can resonate for everyday life. Fake love can also be seen towards friends, family, etc. I love your lyric breakdowns!!
11:31 also that is ambigram! They have a song called "Save Me" AND "I'm Fine". The songs connect as well.
About the part where you talk about 'Beauty and the Beast', it made me think to a beautiful BTS' song : 'The truth untold' when you can listen to it. Even better if you can react to the live version.
Rather than hearts flying away, I think those are petals from The Rose. Notice that the container for the rose is broken on the floor of the room.
Fake love is from the second album of a trilogy called Love Yourself. The first part/album, Love Yourself: Her (the title track is DNA), it's the happy, colorful face of love, like u meeting someone. Even though the title it's "her" it can be interpreted for maybe any kind of love between people. The second part, Love Yourself: Tear (title track Fake Love, is about when the love is kinda start to break apart. The last part, Love Yourself: Answer (title track Idol), is about loving yourself.
Fake love's lyrics can definitely be interpreted as something for the fans. Famous people in general show their best side for the fans. Some sides are not even truth, so, like in the lyrics, it's a pretty lie. And I don't think the "lies" or "omissions" are with the objective of fools the fans or something like that. I think It's more a way to not disappoint the ones that support you and just show their best side... But sometimes can be suffocating
I don’t agree with that at all… however it’s up to interpretation so I guess it can be both… but it’s about the storyline … so it’s about that at the core loln
@@blarmy827 I think it can be interpreted like this as well, besides the storyline. I remember that was the first thing that I thought at the time when released. And made me belive even more after one of the concept photos for LY: answer. But, of course, it just my opinion and the way I interpreted 🤗🤗
@@kur4mon445 But FL is on Tear, not Answer…?
I also disagree with what you think but to each their own.
two BTS reaction in a row? damn! absolutely love it! react to bts WE ARE BULLETPROOF : THE ETERNAL next time
( fun fact: bts told no to CGI in this mv and Almost in all of their mv they reduce the usage of CGI as much as possible )
Yeeeess it's so good ~ I cry everytime I hear and watch it 😅
If he watches the mv he won’t understand all the references. The wan: the eternal mv it’s basically made of scenes from the older mvs and if I remember correctly there’s the whale to and you should listen to whalien 52 to understand why there’s a flying purple whale ahah
If you want to watch their dance with no distractions their dance practice videos are great! Blood, Sweat & Tears, IDOL, I Need You, Dionysus are all great.
I had never made a connection between this and beauty & the beast, that's really interesting and it does also fit. Same with the phones/tablets and social media. That's 1 reason I love BTS there are so many layers to their music that there's an interpretation for everything. I rly like your breakdowns & you seem genuine. Subscribing for more!
Especially in same album, we got the truth untold that also kinda similar with beauty n the beast as they singing about being ugly.
Fun fact about BTS specifically (but also a lot kpop groups in general): they use very little green screen effects in their MVs. They actually build out the sets. It’s another reason why their MVs are so impressive.
It’s always interesting to see people’s interpretation of their BU MVs when the person watching doesn’t know it’s a part of the BU.
I adore the subtle hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil in the choreography. really perpetuating that this person is turning a blind eye to the false "fate" of their love.
I've seen a lot of reactions to Fake Love but I've never heard a theory like yours. It just proves yet again how good wirters and artists they are: they give you the music video, the song and the lyrics and it's up to you how you take it. That's, in my opinion, true art.
To me, Fake Love speaks about a relationship between two people, in which one of them tried to be something they are not in order to please the other one. But now they have come to a realization that in order to love somebody they need to love themselves first, hence the love between the two people is "fake love".
*For you I could pretend I was happy when I was sad* ... *I tried to be a good man, just for you. Now I don't know me* ... Basically I lost myself while trying to be someone you could love.
Thank you for your reactions. I would suggest Blood, Sweat & Tears if you haven't seen it already 💜 It's pretty much the same masterpiece as Fake Love.
love that you are really focusing on the song and the lyrics in your reactions.I think this fake love can mean many things - like fake love in relationship but even love between friends or family and especially loving yourself.If you you are not true to yourself and pretend to be someone else this love won't last. I think that they also can refer to the fact that sometimes they try to pretend to us fans to be perfect.They are really hard on themselves and they try not to show their hardships cause fans will be sad or dissapointed.So this can be about them pretending to be perfect for us and us seeing only good side of them not the real them with their flaws and insecurities. So it's all is fake love. It's reall amazing that we all can interpret this in so many different ways.
Thankyou for explaining the lyrics, friends have recommended bts to me but I never was interested because I didn’t have time to deep dive into them. So your kind of introducing them to me to lol.
The lyric explanation it’s just his interpretation. The song it’s about a relationship with a person not the fans or social media. But looking at different interpretations it’s cool :)
could also be fake love from your friends, family, or even yourself... we change ourselves to their expectations... it can be interpreted in different ways.. BTS likes to write DEEP songs that are open for different interpretations..
I prefer the Extended Fake Love video. Different music production too. Heavier rock vibes. Rawr~ This is not about fans. Haha. Its part of the Bangtan Universe fictional storyline & under the Love Yourself Album trilogy. The flower is not a rose but a Smeraldo flower featured in the aforementioned storyline. The cellphone scene relates to the storyline too.
Woah I guess you are the first reactor that I've seen who actually understood that they are talking about themselves and it's the fake love they are giving themselves .... impressive you nice keep going 👍🏻😂
it wasn't about the fans BTS love their fans 😁
its about hiding their true self under a mask and pretending to be someone their not
Although they would never say that to their fans faces, they have said this song can be interpreted many ways. I've always thought "fake fan love" applied to this song a LOT. Especially the part about "making me your doll." So many "fans" objectify them in really disturbing ways.
@@Anne-pd2hk Yes. I think this song can be interpreted in so many ways and I think it also is written intentionally so it can have multiple interpretations. And when we know that Outro tear was the same time and it was written cause they thought of disbanding. Maybe some of this fake love issues was one of the struggles that they needed to work through in order to keep going. They are loved by so many, amazing fans, but there is also lot of toxic ones. That is seen in every vlive they do, the comment section allways has toxic comments from solostans etc. I know if this song is in some part about fans, it is not towards real army, but towards those fake ones, solostans etc toxic fans who think Bts should do certain music only 💜
Nah, it could be. Especially the video on V part. We all know who are the people behind those phones and what they say: fake shallow love.
BTS would NEVER say it's about their fans, but let's be real, there is no way they don't think about that. It's a parasocial relationship at the end of the day. They "love" us and we "love" them, but it's not "real", it's fake love.
I love this song for all the layers to the lyrics... Could it be about fans not truly knowing BTS as real people so fans' love is fake? Yes... Could it be about someone in a relationship who changed to be perfect for the other person, so the other person doesn't really know and therefore can't really love who their partner is for who they are? Yes.... Could it be about BTS' feelings for themselves, creating their BTS 'persona' for fans but wondering where their real self ends and the persona starts, loving their fake 'persona' better than their real selves? Yes.
I was binge watching your bts reactions and you dropped this lol.... Pleaaaaaase react to the rap line cyphers... I bet you'll LOVE them.
Same 🙈 have't really watched any reaction videos since mots7 era and suddenly had the urge to look for another LTB reaction video lmao, that's how i ended up finding this channel and here I am now 😂
Never doubt an Armys' love for BTS! I would take a bullet for any one of them
You're one of the few people I saw on yt who didn't immediately think this song was about a love affair that ended badly.
Agreed
Fake Love” is in my top 5 from BTS. Beautiful poetic lyrics and amazing visuals. The song is not necessarily about another person and their fake love, but directed inward and basically telling the story that if you’re not true to yourself or love yourself first, then love of any kind or for anyone will always be ‘fake’ (notice they look in the mirror at themselves often). And because basically YOU are the person allowing another to have power over you, when in actuality what’s being done to you is actually not by another person but yourself because you lack self-love. It follows their “Love Yourself” album trilogy’s (3 albums-the first album is about an ideal love, “Fake Love” is on the 2nd album when the idealized love falls apart and your faced to look inward and self-reflect and question your true self)the theme of “Love Yourself” where in the last 3rd album you realize you’re the one you should love and accept the most before you can truly love anyone else. BTS launched the Love Myself campaign with UNICEF to protect children against violence around the release of these albums where part of the proceeds of the 3 albums went to the cause and 100% of sales from their Love Myself merchandise went to the cause as well. Re:Snickers bars-it’s a part of BTS fictional “BU” storyline where JHope’s mother in the story abandons him at an amusement park leaving him with only a Snickers Bar so snickers is a part of his ‘fear’ in Fake Love. BTS’ BU is pretty intricate and you have to go back from the start of the HYYH era to piece it all together it’s some pretty heavy topics they explore btw-they have a webtoons and video games based off the fictional storyline too. 💜 The visuals in Fake Love like the snickers bars, water, fire, flower are connected to BTS’ complex fictional storyline that runs through a few of their videos and hits on heavy topics such as mental health, abuse, addiction etc, so it will be confusing to newbies to BTS who haven’t gone down their storyline rabbit hole yet! The hands sculpture represents “See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil”…which is also represented in movements in the choreography too.
So speedy breakdown of the visuals in this MV and what they mean, to me at least.
That rose you mentioned, it represents love. We can see Jin in a room alone as debris flies in during the chorus. He goes to protect the rose from it but ultimately he fails. The rose in encased in glass because in a way it's a fake or toxic love. He can't even reach it.
When the music stops, we see Jungkook. He walks up to a pile of sand (or some say ashes) that has the same glass lantern/case on it and he picks some of the sand (or ashes) up in his hands. In that moment, he realizes that he needs to love himself rather than getting caught up in a fake relationship with himself or with another person.
And then the sand/ashes turns back into flower petals. Back into love. But it wasn't just love. It was self love because he made those flower petals himself.
Boom.
I am so glad to see new BTS reactions today!!! Awesome!! I always wait for more BTS content here!
Dynamite, DNA, Blood Sweat and Tears, Idol, Fire, Boy With Luv, Save Me, Spring Day, Not Today, Run, Just One Day Etc... There are tons of songs you would love to react!!
Everything in this video was real! Including the floor falling. They were all real effects, the budget for this mv was absolutely insane. Also a lot of what you said was very close, but I feel like you won’t fully get the affect of this mv and this song (as well as most others) without knowing more about the guys themselves and also the storyline that runs through a lot of their music videos. They have an entire cinematic universe that’s played out in bits and pieces through music videos, a webtoon, a couple books, and a mobile game. It deals with very real struggles like suicide, chronic illness both physical and mental, parental abandonment, domestic abuse, and supernatural elements like time travel and the god Abraxas
The song is about a toxic relationship and realizing that to make the other person happy you’re deleting your own self. To make more sense we should take a look at the full picture: the love yourself trilogy. In the first album, ly:her, two persons fall in love, in ly:tear which is the album where fake love is from, one of the lovers realizes that the relationship isn’t working anymore. To make the other person happy they pretend to be someone who isn’t themselves, that explains the I’m fine/save me scene. They say that they’re fine but deep down they know that this relationship is just ruining them and they want to be saved. In the end there’s ly:answer where they realize that the most important thing is to love yourself before loving someone else.
Sorry for my bad English and I hope I explained myself :)
You have an intelligent and analytical mind...i like that. We interpret BTS songs as however they relate to us that's the beauty of their song making...
I agree very much with your interpretation about this song.
🙋🏻♀️ from 🇺🇸 Silver Army here 👵🏼 I have watched many different reaction videos and many of them comment on their dancing, choreography , stage set , song appreciation etc... but very rare are the videos that try to interpret the lyrics as you do, so big time props . You give insight to those watching who did not understand the lyrics . From the beginning (2yrs. ago) when out of curiosity I discovered them , what drew me to them is the messages in their songs, many of them with healing affects to the listeners. As you can see I don't recommend MV's because all the comments have it covered🤷🏻♀️ The more you delve into BTS you will come to appreciate their humbleness , generosity , strengths, dedication to excellence , intelligence and love for their fans the armies, I am at 77 and of sound mind a very proud Silver army❣️ 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
The main theme of Fake Love is a toxic relationship, losing yourself because you tried to change in order to being with the person you “love”. It’s part of a story line that goes with the Love Yourself series that consists of 3 albums.
Love Yourself: Her that talks about falling in love, finding a love that seems like destiny.
Songs that are part of the story line: 1)Serendipity, 2)DNA and 3)Outro: Her
Love Yourself: Tear talks about the inevitable break-up
Songs: 1) Singularity, 2) Fake Love
Love yourself: Answer that talks about the realization the epiphany about the importance of self-love
Song: Epiphany
This builds on the underlying theme of the Love Yourself series: before you can truly love someone else, you must first be able to love yourself.
Nothing is fake between BTS and ARMY. All songs dedicate for his fans are beautiful love songs. ARMY is inconditional.
Another great reaction and I love that you're watching MVs first...they're so good! Please do more BTS, they have so many and very varied 😊
An important thing about this music video is that all the scenes even that running scene, are real and there is no green screen. you can understand this if you watch fake love MV shooting video.
You are starting to become my fave reactor... I love how you see the depth of the performance and the lyrics... Borahae
The song that got me into bts back in 2018
The song means that you need to love yourself before you can love someone else. They are saying they are losing their real self while loving this person
I like how you analyze it, I didn't think it could be for the industry or the fans (although I don't think so) ... I like it!
Fake Love is the title track from probably my favorite BTS album Love Yourself: Tear. I hope you will be reacting to BTS new song Permission to Dance (co-written by Ed Sheeran) that's coming out July 9th.
I think this song is for everyone a little different, what you feel at moment will make you take this song one way or another. You can experience Fake love everywere.... From 'fans', from friends, family, lovers, mates, or even people you meet one time but they give you this fake treatment, be sweet and shit but in thier heads they are like "come on go with it" or "f you". Even when BTS talks that the songs from Love Yourself series are about self discovery and take of masks, it still fit to all different meanings. So all interpretacions all good.
I never thougts about Beaty & beast, but it nice reference, and can fit too.
You won me over with the continued BTS content. I won't watch any non-kpop reactions, but I have decided to subscribe to your channel so I don't miss anything relevant. Thank you for reacting and sharing
im sure others have mentioned, but this song falls into their fictional storyline as well as having its own stand alone message. so in the mv for example the section where the music cuts out and a load of the imagery like the water, the fire, the flowers in the glass case being protected at the beginning, and the snickers bars all have their own ties to specific members and bts' over arching story! if you ever want to delve into the bts universe (a lot like the trench universe for some relatability) im sure army would be interested in seeing that!
BTS has this big MCU kinda thing called the BU (bts universe) where a lot of the music videos from their albums tell a story ( those albums being “The most beautiful moment in life”, “WINGS”, “Love Yourself Her Tear and Answer”, and a bit in “Map of the Soul”)
Fake Love can also refer to self-love/self-acceptance or love between partners, family members, friends and co-workers (more like hypocrites) depending on how you want to interpret whose love is genuine or fake.
They didn't specifically say if the lyrics were referring to the fans but many came up with similar theories too when the song dropped back in 2018. What they have said about Fake Love though is that this song can be interpreted to be about person to person or it can be about you & yourself. The relationship with yourself that is. The main idea behind the whole album (2nd installation of LY Series) LY: Tear, in which Fake Love is, was basically realizing a love that is not with agreement with your true self & you're just becoming someone else to either please someone else or create a better persona of yourself in other people's eyes, that love can not be forever & one day it will all crumble. In the final installment of the Love Youself Series, LY: Answer its realized that "I'm the one I should love.." before loving anyone else. The first part was LY: Her in which it's all happy feelings that one experiences in the first stages of love when falling in love. The whole Love Yourself series had story archs that explored a certain feeling of love in each album.
Yes, the fake love can be towards another person or other things (friend, parent, fans, lover, industry...) but like you said it can be yourself. It's saying true to yourself & love yourself first. All props (blue flower, cell phone, water falls, fire, mirror, keyhole, playgroup, snicker bars....) and dance movements are precisely and detaily placed for the BTS World storyline. Just for your info, there are hardly any CGIs. Background statues are real matching their choreo (hear no evil, see no evil, see no evil).
They're not talking about the fans, they love their fans, but I think is about the music industry 🤗😋
The best thing about you is that you always pay enough attention on lyrics as well...
The flower represents his persona mask (carl jung arquetypes of personality) Jungkook (the guy spying all the others represents the persona mask. The one protecting the flower (Jin) is the only real person. The other guys represent the different arquetypes (perdona, shadow, ego etc) of his personality. This song is included in their 3 album series called love yourself which is a journey to learn how to integrate their shadows and finally start loving themselves.
you made such great points and interpretation. it's a new perspective for me and i thank you for that. ☺️ thus, this song and mv can be interpreted in a million ways. however, there's a clear point that losing yourself to fit the standards of someone else (whether it be the fans, the entire industry, media, their family, their "friends," their romantic love, etc.) - a list of people or entities they want to please cos they're also mistaken for loving them and vice versa... we're all guilty of this at one point, hence the saying "best foot forward." we naturally want to show only our good or best side to someone we like/love. if it gets beyond control, you lose yourself. of course your good and best parts are part of you too but that's not the only thing about you. so, is the love real if you don't know who you are and the other person knows you for somebody else (or just a part of you and not the entitety of who you are)? they're not only the receiver of fake love - in this song they're also reflecting if they have been giving fake love by wondering if they're still staying true to themselves. this song is from the album love yourself tear. it's part of the love yourself trilogy.
1. love yourself her - joys of the beginnings of falling for someone
title track: dna
intro song: serendipity
2. love yourself tear - pains of losing yourself in the process of loving someone
title track: fake love
intro song: singularity
3. love yourself answer - the realization on where true love begins
title track: idol
intro song: epiphany
Hardly anyone gets the song is to army right off the bat. Yes, it also has a completely different meaning in the BU, but i think it means BOTH (and probably more) things. So great job realizing this ain't no love song lol.
Another masterpiece from RM the leader of bts💜👑 this song is a masterpiece 💜
tbh i always interpreted it as an actual toxic relationship or people who only want to date someone for their image and not their actual selves which is honestly a huge thing that happens when you're a celebrity but this song can be interpreted in many different ways and that's what makes it (and art in general) so interesting
I can not wait for you to follow the BU story line. This music video is part of a whole universe. I agree with your interpretation outside of what the story line portrays. I do recommend if you start the journey of BU that you at least are able to recognize each member individually so its less confusing.
THE TRUTH UNTOLD!! (vocal line song) and OUTRO:TEAR!! (rap line song), Please you'll absolutely love them!! The lyrics are great, they're some of my favorite lyrics by them!!
Honestly i do think its about their love toward fans. Especially as another track in album which is outro:tear about them thinking to disband. This album made when they feeling very pressure with new kind of international fame they got to the point they thinking to disband. Plus, there is another track called the truth untold that kinda similar with beauty n the beast story which the main character think he is ugly n afraid to meet the girl.
You reactions are interesting and I appreciate the breakdown. For someone who doesn't have much idea about them wow
The video itself and the meaning is a bit more complex than taking it at face value of the 'fake love' from comments and things. It's part of the BTS universe, which is very complicated to try understand. But for someone who isn't up to date on the BTS universe and probably doesn't even know what it is, I'm very impressed with your analysis.
Enjoyed watching your reaction!💜
Great reaction! I really appreciate your take on this. I've never thought about it from the fans angle. Interesting.
I know it's not a popular opinion, but I'm also interpreting the song the same way as you do. Of course BTS lyrics is open as usual, you could argue whether it's about toxic love relationship, relationship with youself, etc. But as I see it it definitely has artist/fans layer within it.
Almost all fans have no idea who are these young men - BTS, what are their dreams, fears, etc. Even in backstage videos information is filtered to show them the best way possible. Fans love BTS's stage images, but they have no idea about people behind.
Wow, I love your interpretation of the lyrics. I never thought of it in that sense, so thank you! Officially subscribing 👌
great reactions regarding bts man. respect
Everything in this mv is real, the sculture, the fire, the water and also the floor falling.
They have a diss track for the fans called "Pied Piper". It has no music video so if you'd want to check that out, please check the color-coded lyric video. "Magic Shop" is their comfort song for the fans. Please check their live performance with English subtitle. There are a lot more songs for the fans but these two my favorites. 😁
Love your reactions.💜 You pointed out my favorite line in the song. "I wish love was perfect as love itself"...... Powerful line, the whole song is great.
No CGI in here... all real.. except ofcourse for the phone turning to dust and..there is behind the scene of this also
about the flower part; it actually has nothing to do with beauty and the beast, if you read other theories from love yourself her, you'd recognize this flower as the 'smeraldo' flower, the meaning behind this flower is 'the truth i couldn't tell' :).
They preformed in lots of cool places. Their company has the best effects team I've ever seen. Watch them at Grand Central station in New York on Jimmy Fallon.
Your interpretation of the lyrics always amazes me.. you really do a great job breaking the lyrics down.. just to know more about the song.. it was from the album love yourself tear..
They have a series of albums called love yourself and it follows a certain story..
The first album is called love yourself: her.. which basically shows the beautiful side of love.. how you are attracted to your beloved.. in any kind of relationship.. trying to show them your best sides..
In the second album love yourself: Tear.. this love begins to crack.. where you realize that you actually lost yourself in the process of trying to save this relationship.. to the point you don't even realize who you are anymore..
The final album.. love yourself: Answer.. you finally get the moment of the epiphany that you need to love yourself and accept who you are with all your sides in order to be able to love someone else..
It amazes me everytime how they were able to come out with such a beautiful thing.. it helped alot of people.. including me through our hardest times.. so now it became the message of bts to help people love and accept themselves.. that's why they are the nearest to our hearts..
And about the try not to laugh challenge.. they are actually one of the funniest people you'll ever see.. I suggest watching their funny videos as well..
Thank you so much for dedicating your time to deliver these videos and sharing them.. excited for your next video.. an Army from Egypt👋🏻💜
You hooked me with Bo Burnham videos and it's great to see your insight carry over to all the music you review. Really enjoying your channel!
The “Making of” video for this is pretty cool since they use so many practical effects. This is one my all time favorite MVs. Great analysis.
Please react to dimple and pied piper live! There's a live version with the lyrics on top 😊
There's also the lyric about making me your doll. That's suggest someone in a relationship that your partner is slowly turning you into something you are not'. to me that talks of controlling that other person it's toxic and it's not love it's fake love. To wake up and get out of that type of controlling relationship you have to realise it's fake love the person doesn't love you they love only what they can make you into. Fake love. You only recognise the 'fake love' when you start to learn to love your real self not the image your controlling partner is slowly pushing you into.

man you are the first person i've watched who's dived so deeply into the lyrics... as an ARMY i appreciate that.... but man you've made me come up with so many different theories and now im heck confused
I really like that you dive into the lyrics like this. It's interesting to hear your thoughts. There are more official stories to the videos and songs, but your take is really interesting as well. And who's to say there isn't more to it? Thank you for a great reaction. 💜
So first of all, this music video (like a few others) is part of their fictional storyline called Bangtan Universe or BU for short that runs through some of their videos, short clips, concert vcr, notes included in albums etc. The lyrics don't necessarily always are a part of BU but only the videos so it can be interpreted independently. Second, that flower in the hourglass wasn't a rose but a flower called Smeraldo that is also associated with the storyline. The BU is very complicated & people won't be able to make sense of it if they start from the middle. The BU isn't chronologically released either, the parts released later may well be the story of the past & parts released earlier may tell the story of a distant future. So if ever you want to dive into the BU (it's very interesting I tell you, making your own theories & trying to connect the dots) please tell us so we can guide you through the order to watch in which the videos were released. And do cross check with a couple other comments from other people since an army can sometimes get the order mixed up. Personally though, I'd suggest you get to know them individually better before you decide, if you decide you want to get into it (if u don't wanna thats totally fine too you can enjoy the lyrics & video without the added leyers) bc knowing each member by face & name is important in order to understand each of their stories & pairings.
My suggestion for the next video is Interlude: Shadow. Thank you for this.
As someone getting into BTS i could see you leaning towards thinking that a song like this could be addressed to there fanbase ( ARMY), but BTS would never make a song suggesting they find ARMY's love for them fake. From before BTS was BTS they worked on building a connection with ARMY. When it comes to how BTS feels about ARMY, we walk beside them, they are not just BTS without ARMY. They truly cherish us and make sure we know it all the time. They still openly use gifts they recieved from ARMY 8 years ago, they take there time out to talk to ARMY, They have a few songs that are openly made specifically for the fans. listening to songs like those will deff show you BTS would never want ARMY to think that they feel all the love is fake. The reason people make jokes about ARMY is because of the unbreakable bond BTS has made with us, ARMY literally will go to war for BTS, and BTS will never stand to let anyone trash talk us infront of them.
Songs for ARMY
2!3!
Mikrokosmos
We Are Bulletproof The Eternal
Magic Shop
Pied Piper (this is the an offbeat ARMY song basically talking about how BTS has us like a pied piper lol)
That was an interesting reaction, thank you. I had not thought of it from a music industry persepective before. I feel that although some songs are part of the storyline, each song can have the meaning you want or need at the time. It is the genius of these young men.
Interlude:shadow, blood sweat and tears
it can be many things but in my opinion it can be about a toxic relationship.. when you are trying so hard to be the person that your partner want you to be until you realize that you don't even know the person you've become and realize that its actually was a fake love.
You know, you could watch a video twice in a reaction...the first time to watch and comment on what you see and hear, the second time to comment on the lyric interpretation to English (and maybe things you missed the first time around). That way, you would not have to focus on the choreography, the music, and the lyrics all at the same time. Just a thought! Looking forward to more BTS reactions!

You'd probably love the BU storyline. I'd be interested in seeing you analyse it
I think you might like to watch some of Bo Burnham’s really old videos from when he first started posting in youtube as a teenager. That was when he was genuinely happy and enjoyed what he was doing in my opinion. I would recommend words words words, oh bo, I’m bo yo, bo fo sho, and new math
The video relates to the storyline… like we know why Tae is with cellphones … the water, the fire, hobi and his carousel bd snickers… jk and the covered figure, the flower , the sand … jin and jk mirroring each other , jk seeing each member in their room alone… since I know the storyline connections bc they’re pretty obvious…. Hard to switch it in my brain. Lol but technically up to interpretation so can go either way then
Can work for any relationship .. bc it’s about them and relationships they’re in… and toxic relationships… especially since bts being openly vulnerable with fans is at the heart of everything they’ve built . It’s to me about the fragility of love itself
The sculpture in the background isn't real, but it is also not green screen. I believe it is a projection of some sort or a screen. You can get a slightly better look at it in the behind the scenes for this MV. The large majority of this MV was done through sets and practical effects. The only green screen I think they used was for the door opening in the water (just the door part ... the rest of the water was all an actual set with actual water), and the only CGI was the phone turning into sand.
I love your reaction and I love how you try to understand their lyrics... a lot of reactors don't do that which makes Me frustrated coz their fake and just trying to get views but you are Not which is good 💜💜💜 and I'm your new sub! 😉💜💜
BTS songs have a story, so you have to watch the first album first.
Blood sweat and tears are ddaeng too💜
You should see the making video of fake love ..they use very less CGI
J-hope and Jimin talked about this dance routine as a puppeteer controlling them like dolls, probably the music industry in general. There are many layers to this song and video, and even though they love us and are very greatful for our support, I definetly see that it can also be about fake love from fans. We don't actually know them, but we love the persons they portrait. That being said, these 7 guys are very humble and genuine, and to show my support I will "like" and "heart" everything that they do, because I feel they really deserve it. I will keep walking with them, 영원히 함께니까 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
