BTS의 랩과 노래가사는 스타로서의 고백이아닌 일상의 우리들 모두가 공감하는 진실된 가사입니다 저는 2013년 BTS 때문에 랩에 빠졌습니다 그리고 랩의 장르는 매우 건강한것이라는것을 알았습니다 BTS의 모든 곡 가사를 함께 공유해주세요 🙏

[@charach7855]

@@tigerteel Please do. Ugh is actually has a deep meaning and it also contain a lot of Korean culture references. So explanation by DKDKTV is a must to fully understand and fully appreciate the song (the art) itself. Can't wait to see this. But I could not join the premier as I will be at work. Will watch it after work. Borahae 💜

This is a very deep song, this song is also explained by DKDKTV if you have a chance check it up. You'll get a bigger picture of the meaning of the song. Love your channel. Welcome to this beautiful journey. I'm 58 years old and introduced to BTS by my 22 year old daughter. And I have been an Army since 2016. And yes I'm waiting for the premiere 💜💜💜💜 Greetings from California 🇺🇲

[@jenniferlabrie129]

Yes you must watch the explanation video!!

[@geekyreader34]

It’s basically about using anger for stupid things like hating others and trying to bring them down. Instead of using anger for something positive like making changes to improve the world

[@silviamunoz6863]

To me, it's clear that they are saying that anger, when used to fight against wrong things, is not just ok but necessary. The bad anger is that what makes people become haters.

[@susan-bv7ym]

They are talking about how people use and hold anger. For example, Instead of some people using anger for just causes to create meaningful change, it gets misused and misdirected to hurt people whether that is celebrities or other humans. As we know this hurt can cause damage, even resulting in someone's death.

[@Myjotime]

U can’t taste bts songs without watching the live version of their songs 😊

[@alipotter0613]

DKDKTV explanation is a must. I love it that you got the advice to play the song all the way through first and then you pause and go off on a tangent.😁💜

[@katdelarosa7579]

[@WonderingWildWanderingRose]

It should maybe be a general rule of thumb for future music, especially rapline

[@ushreebakshi8818]

If you liked UGH, Here are some other songs you might also like from them. (Also do watch the explanation videos) 1) Ddaeng 2) Tear 2) Cypher 1-4 3) Joke by RM 2) AGUST D by Suga 3) Daechwita by Suga 4) Shadow by Suga 5) More by JHope 6) Arson by Jhope 7) Persona by RM

[@miyuryuu7260]

Strongly recommendation UGH explanation by DKDKTV for better understanding about the song. It's have a lot of korean metaphor n idiom/proverb too, that why u cant fully grasp the song meaning :)

[@ipsitagupta9125]

Please let the song play out completely next time, you missed the last beat drop which is iconic. Also, loved your thoughtful insight on the song! And the fact that when you learnt about the 24 hour reaction rule you took it positively and supported it, Borahae to that 💜

[@sandys1890]

It is about how anger is wasted or misused because people are angry about everything...When it's really needed it fizzles out

[@h.knuffke6773]

This song has a very clear message about the misuse of the emotion "anger". Anger is necessary and can be used against injustices to change the world. However many people throw it around and use it to hurt others, which is a waste of the emotion "anger". Please watch DDKTV explaination reaction , they go into great detail. 🙏🙏🙏 Also the lyrics on this particular video are not accurate. There is a live performance of UGH. It's really good. Maybe you guys have time to react to both the explanation and the live performance. Thank you so much. ❤️

Enjoy your reactions, they are a hoot. Also you might know this as you know someone who obviously is in the know about BTS but they have there own YT channel, BANGTAN TV. It shows a lot of stuff on there. Including behind the scense and rehearsals plus some fun stuff.

[@valjk7198]

The meaning goes more along the lines of "you have the right to be angry but use that anger for something worthwhile don't waste it for nothing, your anger without reasons can cost someone life while your anger with reason can change the world"

[@SingaJay]

Thanks for your reaction. Yes, as RM says, do you! Everything is up to interpretation, however it's necessary to use DKDKTV for explanations and then you get the full picture. And I'm a 54 yr old proud Army! As for the 'rules' they're really just suggestions, just enjoy the music. If you have to go back to see the lyrics better do so, whatever helps you to get a better experience. Lots of reactors do their thing and have happy Army's following along so don't worry too much!

[@brjh8770]

Whether you guys’ interpretations are right or wrong or somewhere in between, I’m just enjoying your reactions and listening to your analyses and side stories. The wheel is great! And shout out to Mrs. HLC and her advice to respect the 24-hour window when there’s a new video drop!

[@ALadybug42]

If there isn't an official video, strongly recommend watching a live performance rather than these lyric videos. There is also an UGH! Explained video that is fantastic. There are explanation videos for many of BTS videos because their lyrics almost always have multiple meanings. Their lyrics also include very cultural specific topics that are relatable elsewhere but may not always make sense unless you have some familiarity with the language and culture. The live version of UGH! from the Busan concert is total hype and worth a watch!

[@Shay.Alaoui]

I suggest you guys react to UGH explained by DKDKTV ! They explain the actual meaning of the song, and some cultural references that can't pick up from the lyrics alone

[@ellysavaj5656]

For songs without music videos, you’ll get the most out of them watching live performances.

[@WhatDoISay7]

I wanna appreciate n thank the wife of the guy on left for letting them know abt the 24hr rule..I am sure she is on twitter. appreciate u guys for respecting ARMY's wishes

[@ysk8671]

UGH! is about online haters. I highly recommend the explanation by DKDKTV for this song as well as for their song 'Ddaeng'. Unless you know the Korean culture well, you might not fully understand the lyrics for these songs. A lot of their songs have Korean idioms that DKDKTV explains.

[@naghamsnati2674]

You need to check the explanation of the song it will show you the depth of their talent since the lyrics is one of their power strength which puts BTS in another level, untouchable 💜

I love how you are actively talking about respecting the first 24 hours of releasing and technically how you are going to react in the future! How about looking at these non video songs as the Live versions within their concerts. You really get a feel for the emotions to each song. And I agree DKDKTV is the place to understand the dissection of the song. Keep going! 😊💜

[@soggytomales893]

For songs like ugh, daeng gogo, spring day, (basically any bts watch dkdk TV explanation video for bts. Bts has a lot of hidden meaning and aspects of korean that just looking at English translations won't show. You'd have to watch an explanation video to understand them. They are extremely helpful to understand and it makes you realize how genius bts music truly is.

[@WonderingWildWanderingRose]

I remember seeing an explanation video for Fire after I'd been an army for years already. I was shocked at how much I hadn't even known I was missing.

[@vivianciron9085]

DKDKTV is the answer to your question. They have explained it really well and so with the other rap songs like Ddaeng and Bapsae. Check em out.

[@st1010]

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this but don't be afraid to watch the video a couple of times during ur reactions. U don't have to try to catch everything in just one go. We don't mind watching long videos at all. We love it when u take the time to digest everything during a reaction. The 1st round, watch it for the vibe/visuals etc. Then go back the 2nd time & focus on the lyrics. That way u don't miss anything.

[@Bonusdoc]

Aww man you should’ve let the rest of the song finish! It closes out with a FIRE breakdown segment

[@Dani.Torres]

Right! The stopped the song on the instrumental break. Missing the most important part: THE ENDING!

[@inamardesouza]

Watch "UGH explained by a Korean", because of the meaning. And the live version of Busan Concert. It is insane!

[@em5522]

Idk if this is tactless for me to say, so I'll delete if sm1 asks, but bc I didn't see it, I'd like to share some history of what was also going on when this song came out. BTS tend to make songs or references in their songs that affect them on a socioeconomic and political scale (like *Go Go,* as you've mentioned), and they too have been subjected to a lot of quite irrational and irrationally large-scale hate. So, I agree with both of your interpretations at 13:43, bc a few months b4 the song's release, there was an unfortunate string of celeb su*cides (for various, and some, undisclosed reasons), and at least a couple of them were ppl who were very vocal and public abt the unwarranted hate they got from online, in the industry, and by the media.

[@HailToTheMeep]

FOR OUTRO: TEAR (yea that’s both tear and tear) -> LIVE in Wembley Stadium from their 2019 concert where THEY ARE ALL IN BLACK DIOR. Your first listen HAS TO BE THAT. Have fun!

This song has so many layers! And I agree that you should watch DKDKTV explanation. There are many historical and linguistic explanation for this song. I agree that you should interpret the song the way you’d like. But it may help you to appreciate the song more. Their live performance of this is so crazy. My favorite is the recent one from their Yet To Come in Busan concert. I look forward to what the wheel picks next. Unless it’s a vocal line song, most group songs have rap parts and so you really can’t go wrong. I hope you guys are enjoying the journey!

[@ud2278]

I think you guys should react to the EXPLANATION VIDEO by DKDKTV for UGH! and DDAENG if you are going to do it next. These "lyric" videos don't do justice for these complex songs.

[@aschmi-mu9110]

Also a live performance of 'ugh'. DKDKTV has also a great explanation video for 'baepsae',

[@ArmantoAlex13]

Before BTS (and Eminem) I’ve had no stomach for rap! Other than these 2 artists, I’ve always associated rap with gangsters, hate in general, women hating and people who think they’re too cool for the rest of the world. I HATED it! I can’t say enough about BTS and their 3 rappers - they’re impactful, emotionally intelligent and so wise for their young years…they’re 3 of the best in the world, as far as I’m concerned! I’m actually more invested in their vocalists (Jimin is my ultimate bias but Hobi is my bias wrecker) but I respect and love RM’s, Suga’s and Hobi’s rapping so much!!! The whole group are just extraordinary! Borahae BTS! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

Enjoy BTS more is a channel with videos of live BTS performances with English translations of the lyrics. Also BangtanTV channel has Ugh live performance from Busan Yet To Come Concert and BTS' online concert in 2020. An explanation video provides deeper Korean cultural / societal context. In a nutshell, BTS is talking about the abuse / misuse of anger when there are more important reasons to get angry or when anger is justified eg injustice

[@theresabaxter5453]

This is basically a song about using anger (a needed emotion) in a positive way to affect change in a positive way instead of just useless insults to things you don't like.

To understand "UGH" better, please react to a Korean DKDKTV's explanation < kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaKWn3qfqpWSnas > There is another channel "The Bookish Theories" who also creates good video on analysis and in-depth explanation of BTS songs and music video.

[@jessicapierce3027]

People will often find multiple meaning within BTS songs, with any song the interpretation is left up to the listener. One listener may find a song fun, while another finds the same song sad. BTS have a lot of songs with intent, and in order to understand the intent you have to know more about the group, where they come from, and how they draw inspiration. You don't have to understand the intent to like a song though. This song is about the misuse of anger. The music in the song will get you fired up punching the air, and at the same time they say don't waste anger on meaningless things. It can actually help you get some aggression out without taking it out on someone else se

[@ronac9279]

Live version of this song at Busan concert is amazing.

[@ideagirl]

Yep. You're the 2nd person besides me suggesting it. Don't know why all Army didn't say that.

[@Cat-vr5ss]

There's usually lyrics videos that show pictures of the members and who's singing what lines. I think you guys will like that more since the lyrics also just won't flash wildly across the screen

[@classical7]

Definitely check out the explanation video "Ugh explained by a Korean" by DKDKTV. Also their live performance! This is one of many amazing piece from our precious Rap line: RM, Suga & JHope.... they're the holy Trinity of BTS. 💜💜💜

[@BlackPearl1987]

The wheel did pick a good one for you. After your last reactions, I already guessed that a rap line song would probably be the right thing for you. 😁 As is already mentioned in other comments. If there is no mv or after you watched the lyric video you could watch a live performance. 'UGH!' was most recently performed during 'Yet to come' in Busan. (together with cypher Pt 3, so you might like to check that out first...) And you are definitely right that there is no right or wrong interpretation of the songs/lyrics, and I enjoy hearing your thoughts. But through language and cultural barriers, some things might get lost. So you could also check out an explanation video. For this, DKDKTV's is probably the best one. (Another good source for explainer videos is bookish theories.) If you have the time and inclination, you could do all of that in one video. Like a lyric or music video with your thoughts and interpretations, an explainer video after and a life performance at the end. Just a suggestion. I would definitely like and watch something like that. And keep on pausing through the video. I really like to hear your initial thoughts and how they change as the song progresses. I'm looking forward to your next reactions 😃 💜

[@cmoneman3025]

At 2:52 when HLC says he was thinking about reacting to Jimin's album immediately and then he imitates his wife's "uh-No." I swear I could see her face on yours. It's hilarious how we pick up patterns from our spouses,etc

[@victoriaallen8840]

You may want to check our either bookish theories for hidden Easter eggs or meanings or some times DKDKTV have great explinations from a Korean cultural aspect. Both are KZbin channels

[@se7nn1120]

When you let your anger consume you, it takes a form of it's own and becomes too much even for you to handle. It becomes a person, a living being. And everything you're doing would all come back to your anger. It's giving you purpose, so you nurture it by doing everything for the sake of anger or extinguishing your anger or maybe you're angry and trying to prove a point.

[@mar_dma]

UGH! Is about haters in general. They’re saying they hate pointless hate. Haters waste their hate/anger on things that don’t matter, they want people to get angry about important things, such as inequality, global warming, hate cr*mes, etc. In recent times a lot of K-pop idols took their own l*ves, that’s what they were talking about with hate comments bothering someone else’s life.

[@lizzy3332]

I really suggest reacting to the explanation video by dkdktv for this song. The lyrics were too fast to read properly so you missed some stuff, and even if you did catch all the lyrics there are some nuances that are important for the meaning of this song that are difficult to understand for non-Koreans

[@jinsmoonmarie6452]

Watch Ugh explained - they are talking about how anger is misused in social media with very serious consequences

[@dreamzbts6585]

So here's the thing I've found interesting about BTS, they do talk a LOT about things from their personal experiences, like haters or keyboard warriors or their struggles with their own demons but BTS also talks a lot about social phenomenon! The unjust things in society or the hypocricy of people. Ugh is 1 such song which is more than just their experiences with anger but them talking what a powerful emotion Anger itself if especially for this society. How Anger has power to bring about change in this world but also anger misdirected/filled with malice can hurt people!

[@mrskimnamjoon6230]

Thank you guys for reacting to BTS! Please don't get overwhelmed with us Armies and take your time! By the way Ugh is also great Live!

[@ygsprincxss333]

you guys are pretty much right about it being about how it's okay to be angry but they're frustrated and angry with the people who are getting angry at the dumbest things instead of getting angry at the important things and using their anger for good and to make a change, instead these people are getting angry because of dumb things like some celebrity wearing a green dress instead of a blue dress you know?

[@DDandME]

갑짜기 가족들을 잃고 세상을 살아가라는 희망이 없을때 BTS의 노래와 메세지는 저를 다시 일어나게해줬습니다 💜 나를 사랑하는법 네가 내옆에 있어서 고마운거 슬픔이 있기에 기쁨을 알게되는것 💜💞 BTS 노래 가사는 진짜 건강한 비타민 입니다

[@blueturtle1813]

what I take away from UGH is that there are issues that really deserve anger, where anger is appropriate and needed ,but we are getting angry about a ton of irrelevant bs (policing each other, celebrity culture etc) that we lose focus of what's really going on in the world. and bts are the target of such ''malicious anger''. it's not just that bts are getting shit on, as they said they are used to it and don't mind anymore, it's that all this malicious anger and energy directed at them cold be used to rage against the real issues in the world

[@tigerteel]

I really like your interpretation of it!

[@porc13]

You guys gotten hate comments yet? They’re so mad at what you said, what you represented? What you did? You guys felt such anger you had to go to war and fight for change? There’s different types of anger, the type that makes you someone’s punching bag or the type of anger that can propel people to change the world. This is a little of what BTS was singing about.

[@NicoleMandel415]

Generally this song is a reaction to online haters and trolls. There have been a couple of suicides of idols in korea who were attacked online so that's what the death refers to.

[@ibelieveinyourgalaxy]

Everyone commenting they should have done / watched xyz, be kind and patient. They are new just like we were once and it takes time to navigate through the sheer amount of videos / lyric videos that are available. Also you can leave a link as a reply to your comment, of the video you think they should watch or should have watched.

[@anushreedas1440]

Please watch the DKDKTV explanation video, because BTS songs always have hidden meanings and intelligent linguistic approaches that will impress you. They don't tend to write any straight forward lyrics, it's always personal to them. And aaaah you've got to watch the live version because if BTS is known for something it's their stage presence.

[@leeankt]

Thanks for reacting to more BTS! Even when you have the lyrics, sometimes you still need an explanation video to get the cultural and language context. The DKDKTV explanation will give you a whole new appreciation for the song kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaKWn3qfqpWSnas I wouldn’t say that their song are just up for interpretation so much as there’s often layers of interpretation and sometimes very specific references and language play that you need an explanation video for if you’re not Korean and/or clued into all the symbolism.

[@Faerieanna]

The "Ahems" is a Korean culture thing, where people who are higher in social standing or financial standing or generational standing etc. clear their throats when they're looking down at another person's viewpoint or expressing derision. You clear your throat, like "sure, sure". It can have multiple meanings, and I've seen a lot of other comments recommending DKDKTV's video explaining UGH. That channel has a lot of good videos when you want context on the cultural differences and nuances/references that Western audiences may not understand easily. They do a great video on DDAENG as well (if you watch that one) because Ddaeng is a unique word that Koreans use in many different ways and Western audiences will not understand most of the lyrics without some context.

[@SnapCracklyPop]

BTS did a dance intro performance to Krizz Kaliko and Limp Bizkit at the New Year Eve music festival (12/31/14) for a TV network, and the camera work was shoddy and they zoomed out a lot so you couldn’t see all the intricate details and view of the choreography. BTS were still rookies, so whenever they get a chance to be on TV (since not very many chances), they can show off their skill and what they’re about. Their label Big Hit was peeved of course that people are not able see all their hard work into the performance, so a week later Big Hit uploaded a video of them filming BTS’ intro performance themselves with proper camera view for fans but also as a snark back at the bleh camera work from that network’s festival lol. Anyway, I think you’ll enjoy the performance to those songs and they also happen to be in Navy uniforms.

If you want to include bonus video alongwith that one, BTS did a dance intro from their amazing online concert late 2020 (because of the pandemic) and they incorporated that choreography from the one above just for a bit of nostalgia, and it’s awesome too. It’s pretty short (1:21 long), but great nonetheless. The Iink to the dance practice: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKvCY4R5edqIgNk

[@charlitahoward6610]

They are also talking about people being keyboard warriors. Like spreading lies and maliciousness on the internet and hurting people in the process because of their own hate and anger. Then at the end they are basically saying people tell them they make so much money and are successful what are they complaining about. Telling them to take all the lies and maliciousness in stride because they are successful.

[@mae__]

Still have goosebumps from their Busan performance of it!! That live was just MADNESS!! The band with the electric guitar, crazy drum kinda metal arrangement, their stage presence... just take me back😭😭 Anyways thx for the reaction 💜 definitely would recommend the explanation to get the cultural and language references

[@Mevdbp]

Love the wheel idea guys! Easy way to get through the overwhelm! And how cool the UGH came out. It’s a fun song with a cool meaning (a lot of people talked about checking out the DKDTV explanation which helps). For the rest, you did a good choice to pick this video, the ones suggesting colour coded lyrics want that because it tells you which member is singing when but I have to say they don’t always have the best and accurate translations so the one you chose is totally fine! Enjoy the journey and keep up 😊

[@BoraNabiCeleste]

On the 24 hour thing, I've seen ARMY on twitter go back and forth for years about this. In general I think it's more respectful to wait so that more views can go to them, but I don't personally get too mad cause I'll use reactions as fillers sometimes when I'm really digging a song and I'm tempted to loop it (bad for view count, lots of views get filtered out that way). It might seem kinda funny to be talking about view counts and stuff, I've never cared about that before being ARMY. There's a reason though, it's the same reason we're so protective of the guys. They went through a LOT in early days coming from a small company and ARMY worked hard and got organized to make sure they would get so big people couldn't ignore or disregard them any more. It's our way of protecting them and showing appreciation for them. It might seem weird, but it worked. They're untouchable world class superstars now and we love that for them!

[@lizzysmom8899]

I actually think that reaction videos help in the first 24 hours. You can't stream the song over and over and expect the views to count. I think it's recommended to watch a couple of videos in between each stream. Plus, it widens the exposure to the general public and the artist earns revenue from the reaction videos as well. Just my opinion...

You should watch the whole J Hope´s Lollapalooza concert. It was fire!!!!!!! I am a 50 year old mom, rock lover and man this concert is one of the best performances I´ve ever watched in my entire life. UGH is about anger that can be used in a positive way to get important issues on the table but useless anger is not only useless but dangerous. It can cause somenone´s misery or even cost someone´s life. Hating idols is pontless. Use your anger for something important that can change the world.

[@Nermal83]

To explain UGH! briefly (which is the sound of annoyance that you let out.. ughhhhh) BTS rapline here basically criticize people complaining about non-issues and turning them into issues, versus not being vocal when actual issues happen in the world. It’s a critique of how people just complain about other people all the time and have so much hate for things that don’t matter and how righteous anger against, for example, injustice is dying The last part with all the ‘ahem’ (throat clearing sound) is more about their own selves and how other people say “I would endure all the criticism if I were in your shoes” or “well it’s expected with fame” and yada yada I also suggest that you look up either subbed live performances, or color coded lyrics for songs without a music video and also maybe read a slight synopsis pff from the web that describes the general message of the song

[@robwebnoid5763]

One reason why we ARMY requests new BTS music video reactions to wait 24 hours is that because BTS is hated on a lot for these past 10 years since their debut, even today, & many haters make the excuse that BTS is not getting a lot of views on their stuff. So by focusing those views onto the Bighit/Hybe official youtube channel & its videos (& BangtanTV channel), it gives BTS a little bit more flex when it comes to the amount of views. The goal is to have as many views by 24 hours. We probably would not be doing this if BTS did not have to go through a lot of crap. But BTS has been proving haters & industry critics wrong all the time & they thank their fanbase for helping. Because let's face it, there would be no such thing as a celebrity if celebrities did not have any fans, not even one. Having said that, there are non-kpop non-fans that consider streaming views as a fake achievement because the huge amount of views are forced, via constant streaming, & not considered "organic". Basically, they probably mean one fan or curious person watching, per view. But ARMY will still do it though because we feel it is right because of the aforementioned hating. Someone else can elaborate on the view streaming process. I hope you eventually watch the Ugh explanation video by DKDKTV channel so you understand this song better, simply because this song applies 100% to what I just wrote & your interpretations of the song are on the right track. And you might have missed the gunfire at the end of the song as you stopped while the bullets were flying midway, heh. And BTS are now all going to be in the military, so that they will have that in common with you guys. Think about it, BTS was started as a military concept but in a symbolic way. After their conscription is over, BTS may be the only band in global history that is both fictional & non-fictional military. And will also now be part of 2 armies.

how considerate about making reviews with proper notes from BTS ARMY wifey.. love it! 💜

[@christinamorris8492]

A lot of the rapline songs have Korean and societal references that would require a Korean to explain to non Koreans. I know other ARMY'S have told you about DKDKTV. They explain a lot of the Korean references really well. They've done this one, Ddaeng, Suga's Daechwita, Idol, Spine Breaker, and Baepsae. Outro: Tear was written by Suga when they thought about disbanding due to the pressure and other stuff. They came together, listened to it, cried, finished the song and then went on their tour and played in the stadiums without ARMY fully understanding until they explained later. Their live concert wearing DIOR is one of the most iconic rapline performances, very powerful. RM uses it as tear 😢, Suga uses it as tear 📃 like ripping, and J-Hope uses it as fear. I enjoy your reactions guys and look forward to other reactions. And if you have any questions you can ask us or your local ARMY wife 😉. She is an amazing person and can help you

[@histfictfan4460]

In short, this is about the proliferation of mindless anger in this world. The live version is insane.

[@Maraaha55]

Thanks, gents. This is the first of your videos where I felt the sound levels were great. I struggled to watch earlier reactions and in fact had to abandon you. You said you would get there, so, well done. This song is a bit of a masterpiece. You are right to interpret it your way - and it isn't easy to get exactly what they mean by it. Doolset's translation is significantly different from the lyrics shown here, and she elaborates on some of the references in a very helpful way. You might not recognise some things she refers to, but the doong doong doong and pook pook pook all remind me of kdrama scenes where someone in authority pokes or hits their "inferior", goading or humiliating them - makes me so mad, because we'd never put up with it, nor would we be likely to experience it. Absolutely not essential to understanding this rap, but adds a layer to it that is almost a physical understanding, what in psychology might be called a "felt sense".

[@WonderingWildWanderingRose]

I agree, they can interpret it their own way, but especially for the rapline, they have something they really want to say/express to others. Delving a bit deeper than one's own understanding in that case is called for, especially when you know a language,cultural, and historical base is different. Getting an idea of others' perceptions and getting some background knowledge can help clarify your own understanding/viewpoint, even if ultimately you hold onto your own interpretation.

[@ideagirl]

Agreed. I couldn't hear the video they were watching.

[@jeanettasheehy3018]

Someone needs to create an ARMY field manual for all trainees....also definitely recommend the explained video for this one from DKDKTV.

[@tigerteel]

Make sure to check my community posts and my other video explaining why I haven’t shown us watching explanation videos during our reactions, these videos are our genuine raw reactions without watching prior, it may not be “Right” to some and that’s totally fine, this is how WE enjoy doing our reactions

[@jeanettasheehy3018]

@@tigerteel Oh no, I didn't mean your interpretations were wrong. I quite like your interpretations. However, after you have done your reactions, you can check out DKDKTV to see the cultural references you missed. Things that there is no way you would know unless you are Korean or at least extremely familiar with Korean culture. That is the great thing about BTS's music. You can enjoy it at surface level cause it sounds great. You can enjoy it at mid-level of understanding the translated lyrics that are provided. But, you can also enjoy it on a deeper level by appreciating the culture from which the music is derived. Not every BTS needs an explained video but certain songs like UGH, Ddaeng, Bapsae, Daechwita, etc. have so much cultural references and meaning in them.

[@lizsays3324]

For me, understanding everything exactly right before I view a painting, read a book, or listen to music takes away form my own enjoyment and interpretation of it. So a complete manual is not necessary for everyone

[@toni5431]

This is one you def need to add to your DKDKTV requests guys along with Ddaeng. You'll get hit with a big O.O that's what it means when you see the breakdown. Neat reaction. Thank you.

[@jcasa3646]

hey guys, really enjoying your reactions! i'm prob not the only one requesting this, but when you react to a BTS lyric video, how about reacting to the live concert performance of the song as well? BTS actually performed "UGH" in concert (@ Busan, SK) a few months ago, and the energy they put into their live performances is on another level!

[@paulaburgess4708]

If you want to watch videos/live performances with english subs check out the reaction channel Enjoy BTS More. She has a lot of content (I am watching to try to catch up with their discography) and does an excellent job of translating..... PS many of their songs also have translations by koreans which should be watched as well to understand what is really going on...so much of their music/lyrics has more than one meaning and some of them are very deep.

[@NamGiJinS]

Guys, a reccomendation for when you react to BTS’s music is that, you can most definitely pause and go back and forth and try to understand it while you watch it but after you finish watching/hearing it, it’s good to search up the English translation of the lyrics to dissect the and see what the song might be about, if you still don’t get it there are a lot of explanation videos you can watch to further understand the music

[@NanciBK]

The song is about being angry at frivolous anger. They say anger is vital for important causes, but is wasted on harm/maliciousness. Def. need an analysis video to get all the linguistic and cultural meanings in the song. As usual, incredibly intelligent and clever wordplay is happening.

[@NanciBK]

Lryics translations are lacking without explanations of cultural context. Once you understand the meanings you appreciate the music so much more.

[@spng157]

They're not gonna understand

[@Anne-pd2hk]

The explanation video for this by DKDKTV is important to get context. Many of their songs have similar breakdowns because of word play, group history, and cultural references.

[@jojokookie7_]

In UGH! it has some word games that are not understood so easily; that's why there's an explanatory video on what it's like UGH!...And there's also a performance by the rap line in Busan(if you want to check it out later, feel free). I purple you 💜.

[@orionsbelt5169]

Please check out and react to UGH explained by DKDKTV to get a much better understading of this song. Thanks

[@elsyromy3039]

fact: the rap line usually in their songs they sing to the haters who insulted them for being idols

[@-amel-9896]

U mentioned krizz calico and the name felt familiar and I realized he was one of the people mentoring BTS back in 2014 in their reality show, alongside Coolio and warren G, and RM did a Collab with him on his first mixtape on SoundCloud

[@ROTNReaper]

oh nice! i didnt know that, ill have to look into that!

[@Yoon4Ever93]

Outro Tear-please know it is NOT about a romantic breakup… drives me crazy when reactions think it’s just another breakup song. Also… know the different uses for tear…. I love the play on that word suga and RM have

[@h.knuffke6773]

Also the correct video with lyrics for Outro Tear is here kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3XYkn19jspre7M It's a live performance. There is no actual mv, but the live performance is 🙌🙌🙌!!!

[@kai1535]

Please when you react to a song make sure to also react to the explanation videos and the mv making

[@crushedflora2696]

Most songs are up for interpretation but certain songs with cultural and current event references, you need an explanation video. The channel DKDTV has UGH Explanation by a Korean.

[@zeljanakunac]

also please if you can react to UGH explained by korean/dkdktv, it would help you kinda get the message from other aspect

[@MissDolkapotsStudioCrochet]

Hi! So this song is about anger but how it is misplaced for trivial things instead of being use for causes that matter. When they are saying ugh can I ugh... get angry until it turns to ashes, it's said in a negative connotation, they are imitating those people who waste their time hating on things that don't really need hate or anger (such as hating on BTS). What they say is, anger can be good and can change history but only when its aimed at things that need changes). PS: you didn't finish the song lol. It has quite an impactful ending

[@riddhuvr8863]

Can you do songs and then their live performances in one video like you did for your first reaction video? 💜

[@ruka_bm]

Ok, you're new to Bts... Next time a life performance with lyrics because they're great live. You have to witness their stage presence. A few live performances have copyright strikes. Ask Army before you react. We will help you! And the explanation video from DKDKTV channel is very important
