BTS (방탄소년단) 'N.O' Official MV [Brothers React]

[@tiffany1279]

So many reactors have BTS content, and you can tell they’re into the music, but most times it still feels like they don’t really “get it.” But how quickly you guys dove into the storyline, the theories, the lives, the lyrics - it feels like you also live and breathe music and it’s important to you to really understand the art. You’re one of the few who I’d consider ARMY, and I just wanted to say I appreciate you guys!

[@Amicy]

We genuinely love learning about them and other groups. We feel it would take more work to fake a reaction rather than play and watch and speak your mind 😁💜🤙🏾

I deeply agree with you..... I have just recently had this conversation with my sister who has been an Army since 2013..... I have noticed that many youtubers are using BTS to gain fans and views..... There are a very, very, very few who actually appreciate BTS for who they are, not just the music

[@iamsherlocked875]

Very good reaction.. most people living in asiqn countries can understand this, but not often i can find reactors from the us get this "vibe". U,re good men!

[@tokyopt]

Allen, you're the true MVP for recognizing N.O as the music for the table part of the MAMA 2019 performance. Your ears as usual are on point.

[@Amicy]

Thank you 😁

[@maskedsoul3068]

In the lyrics RM mentions SKY which is an acronym for prestigious Korean universities: Seoul National University, Korea university, and Yonsei University. This song was basically criticizing the rigid Korean education system where the only thing you’re expected to do is study and get a certain job or you’re not successful. I don’t want to say the school system is necessarily the reason why because I don’t want to assume but Korea has one of the highest (or the highest) suicide rates in the world

[@에리얼-r5j]

Ya im pretty sure korea has the highest suicide rate and as a korean, im ashamed

[@elora512]

_We all lie~_

[@lux3226]

N.O - stands for No Offense SKY - stands for Seoul, Korea, and Yonsei universities (the top 3 universities in Korea - the assumption is, if you make it into one of these 3, your future is pretty much assured success) - Korea has one of the highest rates of suicide in the world, especially among young people - teens and young adults - the pressure for working hard/studying hard and that drive for success puts friendships on the backburner - this causes such stress and loneliness in the young people, that they often resort to ending their lives rather than try to persevere through hardships to try to attain a near mythical goal of success and happiness - BTS urges them no, live their own lives, attain happiness NOW, and that success can only be determined by what each individual needs to achieve that happiness, rather than material goals set by others It is not uncommon for a child in school in Korea to spend 18-20 hours a day in school work. They get up early, go to school, then attend mandatory after school studies, go home (sometimes past 10pm), study at home, then sleep. This does not include those students who ALSO work part-time jobs to help their families. Here's a video of a couple Koreans reacting to a video of vlogs taken by Korean and US students - kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpzFfJmPpcx5nac. It shows some of the stark differences. This is not to say everything about the Korean education process is bad - there is a level of education there that the US simply can't compare with. The problem is the stress, and finding a solution for that.

[@milourb9380]

I think Jungkook was still in school when they made this, so its pretty badass they did this, I wonder what his teachers thought of this 😅

[@aminahammouda259]

V and jimin were still in school as well

[@user28221]

Jungkook, Jimin and V went to high school of performing arts, which basically prepare the students for the entertainment industry. Usually students from these schools will further their studies at Universities focused on arts (like the one Jin went to i.e. Konkuk University). So, their teachers probably didn't have issues about their songs. But N.O was not well-received by the general public especially the parents generation (well, the lyrics criticize them too 😉 ).

I'm impressed you guys recognized the music from MMA dance break good job also react to MAMA 2019 BTS did this song live after like 5 years along with we are bulletproof pt2 I always say N.O is a revolutionary song well at least it is to me I'm from an Asian country and let me tell you the last few years this was the song I used to hear cuz I felt so right. Its the same in Korea too schools here put too much pressure on the kids and so do parents unless you become like idk a doctor, engineer you've failed thats why I love bts for talking about all this and this was just 2013

[@Amicy]

We are trying to check out all the songs in order first so when we listen to the live performances we can know the songs already

[@v.g.4492]

You guys are doing the right thing by watching the MVs in order, so when you get to We are Bulletproof: The Eternal, it will All...Make...Sense. 😆 If you then move on to other songs that don’t have MVs, you’ll also come across some great gems (Anpanman, So What, Paradise...heck, everything from the Tear album and many, many more, LOL).

[@yasminesb7947]

« N.O. » is about being kids/teens being pressured and forced to study, to care so much about grades and being perfect good students and being successful and having safe careers and making money etc. and how that pressure negatively affects kids/teens. BTS are trying to encourage them to stand up and have their own dreams and pursue those dreams and not focus so much on these things and be forced into someone else’s dream. Here the explanations of some lines : A GOOD HOUSE, A GOOD CAR, WILL THESE THINGS BRING HAPPINESS? IN SEOUL TO THE SKY, WOULD YOUR PARENTS BE HAPPY? money can’t buy your happiness SKY: Acronym for the three big universities in South Korea. “SKY is an acronym used to refer to the three most prestigious universities in South Korea: Seoul National University, Korea University, and Yonsei University.” RM is asking people think, would having a lot of money and good things and going to a good university make you happy? Or your parents? I WANT TO EAT AND HAVE FUN, I WANT TO TEAR MY UNIFORM J-Hope doesn’t want to just constantly study, he wants to be able to enjoy and be a kid. Due to all the adults' pressure he just wants to toss aside school stuff and have fun and be normal. ADULTS SAY THAT WE HAVE IT SO EASY THEY SAY I'M ON MY WAY TO HAPPINESS THEN HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN MY UNHAPPINESS? THERE'S NO CONVERSATION TOPICS OTHER THAN STUDYING OUTSIDE, THERE ARE SO MANY KIDS LIKE ME, LIVING THE LIFE OF A PUPPET WHO WILL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY? They are saying when ever we go to school we have to do what ever the grown ups say .We can only talk about school and we are being controlled by adults and they want to know who will stand up to them. Voilà, I hope not to bother you with my explanations but I love to hear you talk and give your opinion on how you feel about the lyrics and visuals, it's like a podcast... I find that you have this thing in common with BTS, that you want to be useful to this world by bringing comfort already through your job which is not easy and you find the time to share with us very constructive opinions that can only contribute to advance humanity... You are very good speakers... Don't forget that we listen to you all over the planet... Love ya

[@itsshelly3911]

It’s pretty sad how the kids don’t even have a chance to group up like it’s crazy. I found out in 2016 that Korean has the highest suicide rates out of all the country’s buy who knows now. May I add that during this time BTS was getting a lot of hate as well which is dumb bc they were speaking for something that is actually meaningful. Great reaction! Also congrats on 25k🎉

[@genevievehiguera6162]

High school students go to school until 10:00 pm . After classes they stay to study for their SATs. To get in to Seoul Unv. , or Sky Unv., you can only miss 2 questions. I saw a video of them giving students at Berkley, and an English professor at Harvard and they were not able to pass. The test is also timed and you have 1 minute for each question on the English part. It was crazy. Also after they leave their study groups at 10pm, they still need to go home and do regular homework. 😱

[@SHA-xs7fe]

bts were never afraid of speaking out they're really using their platform really well and this is why they are really something, they are not just artists, they are a movement.

[@t.faye1237]

I don't know if anyone else talked about this, but yes, Korea's education system is very strict. I don't know if this correct, but I did read somewhere that the average high school student in Korea goes to school about 12-14 hours a day. They go to school about 7:00-8:00 in the morning and school ends around 4:00 in the afternoon. However, they have this thing called self-study where most students stick around after school for many hours to get some extra tutoring or studying in afterwards (self-study, I think, is optional). They usually don't get home until late at night. Then, they do their homework, go to bed, and wake up again. As for vacation, I think they only get one month of summer break a year, unlike the U.S. But, like I said, I don't know for sure because I've never been to Korea. That is just what I read somewhere online. But because of this students are able to build up stronger relationships with their classmates and teachers than in the U.S. P.S. If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.

[@Amicy]

Wow that is crazyy

[@Hana-dp3wr]

This song hits me everytime I listen to it... it kind of makes me remember the time in school where I struggled a lot... this was the only comfort I had at that time cause everyone around me told me I'm just being dramatic and that it's not that bad :)

[@she8539]

This was the era where bts almost disbanded because of lack of resources/funds. Oh it breaks my heart just by thinking about it, they really deserved what they have now. Anyway thanks guys for giving us so much content, borahae💜

[@tsunderelouishita3996]

"Where were we this whole time?" I feel you...I've asked myself that same question since oct 2019 😅

[@s.cruz._.9384]

I realized that I was nodding along to your discussion when you spoke about "you guys have it easier" and mental health. I noticed it with my parents a lot too. As I grew older, I began having discussions with them about mental health because I was active in different clubs that stemmed from that topic. My mom especially couldn't really comprehend how young people suffer from anxiety and depression. We spoke a lot about it and we realized that she was always busy and could not focus on her mental status, none of my parents could. They were always concerned on how to make ends meet, how they were going to feed us, if the money that they have could provide for us and their parents. Your discussion really invoked a lot of thoughts that I had forgotten.

[@cessd2860]

Thanks for listening to my request😚 i really love N.O. until now..one of their bests😳

[@Amicy]

😁😁you are welcome

[@Blueish_Blue]

This is my favourite old school BTS song. It's not uncommon for students to be expected to study from 8-9am all the way to 10pm, one way or another, whether that's at regular school, after school study sessions. A lot of them also then go home and continue studying. And they feel the need to do this as they need to achieve otherwise they are classed as failures. I remember watching a "A day in the life of a Korean student" vlog and she went to school at 8, finished at 3/4ish, went straight to a study school until 9pm, that closed, then went to another one until 11pm, went home and did another hours worth of studying. I feel for them so much, the pressure they are under doesn't allow them time to be kids or to even dream, all they know is studying. And I really commend BTS for tackling a subject as big as this. I really do hope one day it changes for the students of Korea.

[@v.g.4492]

Another great reaction. 😊 I really enjoy seeing the sincerity in your reactions and the effort you put into understanding the messages of the songs. Plus your stories are too funny. Along the lines of challenging the establishment, I think you’d also like Silver Spoon/Baepsae along with the explanation video, where BTS criticizes the older generation for messing things up for the younger people and then expecting them to do better. There’s no MV, but they do have a great dance practice to the song. 😄

[@Amicy]

Bettt

[@rinintan9395]

These lyrics are just chef kiss 👌🏼 If you watch it now and start to think, a rookie boy group did SO MUCH through their song. Tryna give us (the listener) a brand new insight about society, social prejudice, politic etc that NO ONE has never said but THEY DID when they only 16-21th at that time. They've been grown up so much.

[@RadiantStorm666]

It seems you realized it already, but the 2019 MMA performance, their last song Dionysus had that epic dance break. The dance break back track was a remix of this song, that's why we all went extra nuts when the dance break started. I'm sure you realized too that all the solo dances before Dionysus were also remixes of some of their songs throughout their career in chronological order: V had No More Dreams, Jin had Danger, Jimin had I Need U, Suga had Fire, JK had Save Me, and J-Hope had Fake Love. Not to mention also the Boy in Luv throwback. Realize that they have been around for 7 years since their debut, and Boy in Luv and N.O were 6 years ago near the beginning of their career. For them to pull those choreography moves and songs back out after all these years was an awesome nostalgic moment. In the end, that performance was hinting that the album MOTS:7 released early this year would be about their journey, in which that album also had many easter egg references to their past songs, albums, etc.

[@pemayb9134]

This was one of the best reactions I watched from you guys...Bts is different from other kpop acts in this respect, they dared to touch upon topics which were not discussed openly in a conservative society like S. Korea so...Much of BTS’s discography has delved on topics of social issues..so proud I Stan them 💜

[@KomericanMom]

Amazing reaction!!! BTS N.O. is precious treasure in my heart. This song (live performance) made fall in love with BTS. I am a Korea lady grew up in Korea but have lived in US more than I lived in US. When I heard this song, it smacked in my head. I realized that I became those adults whom I fiercely resisted when I was in school. This song helped me reflect on myself as a mom. 💜

This song gets me pretty emotional. Yes, you're right Alex. BTS has always tackled what matters in their productions. It's what sets them apart from the others. They make you feel their emotions in their lyrics, singing and performances which is very powerful. What's more, as you have so far witnessed, they have been consistent from the beginning in their mission to speak out about things that truly matters and are meaningfully helpful especially to today's youth like mental health and loving others by loving yourself. I was thoroughly impressed with how well you analyzed their songs. I am becoming a fan of the Amicy brothers. Love your genuineness and hilarity.😄💜💜

A friend of mine taught English in Korea for a year. He said his students felt stressed and pressured all the time and he worried about how burnt out and exhausted they seemed at such young ages. It was pretty brave of BTS to write and perform a song that took on such a powerful established system like the education system is south korea. Also i affectionately refer to this time in their career as "The Eye Liner Years". Lol.

[@nightshadow73]

In Korea, the big companies will only hire from certain universities. If you make it to the top 3, you pretty much can get hired anywhere, but if you don't... your options for places to work are more limited. There are about 10 universities that are considered "good" and you're out of luck with anything less. That's why their version of the SAT test is such a huge deal because it will literally determine the rest of your life. Very few people are able to reset their lives later like we do all the time in this country because where you finish your schooling determines your options.

The problem with Asian is not just the school system, also the parents. They put alot of pressure onto their kids.

[@opparsgangnamstyle9150]

In my opinion this is the right way to raise kids coz even if they pressure them to do good in school at the end the one who will benefit it the most are still the kids.. Asian parents just wants their kids to have a good future, tbh I also want to raise may daughter this way.

[@pennyyoung3997]

I didn't say is a bad way but I think there should a balance between school and being kids/teenagers. If you show the kid from an early age time management and organizational skills. They will do well.

@@opparsgangnamstyle9150 yes getting a good education is important but it's extreme in South Korea. Students go to school in the morning, then after school to private academies to study more and only come home late at night (12-15h of studying in total). The competition and pressure is so high that SK has the highest suicide rate in the world.

You don't just like **Woo*waa* *woow** (it's not that I am so demanding, that's still alright & good tho) it's just heartwhelming you/they got time to look/ think/know the real existense/deeper of the songs. Great!👏👏👏

Please react to more live perfomances from BTS!

[@ellie_jeann]

Their “ON” track / MV connection of their songs N.O and Not Today.

[@skybluepink998]

You can also see why with songs like this as some of their first songs that a lot of people didn't like them and were like "who are these kids openly criticizing things" certainly parents wouldn't have liked their kids listening to a song with that message. I don't know first hand but I have heard Koreans say that even young elementary age kids go to study "sessions " into the evening for hours after school.

"That's just..that's not us" And that's exactly why I click on that subscribe button..

I LOVE this series where you see the lyrics and the video but I wish you’d watch the videos first so I can see your raw reaction to the music and then analyze the lyrics after! But keep up the great content! 👍🏽💖

[@chiecheng3610]

love you guys~~glad to watch the live now ^^

[@namunam9250]

I didn't know the school system in Haïti was strict. As a person from Paris, i'm not gonna lie, our education system here is sh*t but is definitely not as strict as South Korea. Everything is about competition in there and some parents absolutely want for there children to be in the best universities (the "SKY" mentioned in these lyrics are the letters for these best 3 unis) so they can have the best jobs, in the best companies. (Also, about the "adults think we have it easy", BTS has a song called "Baepsae"(or "Silver spoon") who talks about this topic. You can also find an explained version by DKDK TV) Un salut de Paris 👋🏼😁

I am a Registered Nurse and work with alot of millennials and have so much respect for them. They graduated with tremendous debt. This was not true for my generation. We went to community colleges for relatively little money. Those who got their BSN same thing went to state college at very affordable rates. And the job of being an RN has changed so much. These young nurses became nurses for the same reason we did, but find out it's not a out patient care at all it's about endless documentation and all its about the chart. The stress they face and added responsibilities that increase daily are overwhelming. I see them work so hard to give the best care possible. I bow download to these young nurses everyday. I do not know if I entered healthcare today that I would have stayed or lasted the 37 years I have. Not for one minute do I believe the younger generation has it easy at all.😪 Watch Baepsae and then the DKDKTV explanation, it's another statement by BTS about their generation.

[@geetanjali5827]

Want to watch live but I'm preparing for my exams . I luv ur rxns😍❤nd alex high notes🤣❤

[@pennyyoung3997]

Great job. Love the way you guys doing the lyrics first then MV. Now you need to react the dance practice to all these songs. You guys be amazed the details that went into their dance routine. There's also dance practice for all the MAMA performances.

[@yanniecortez7915]

This is why i love bts school albums. They got some songs banned from broadcast and radio for criticizing SoKor society and norms.

[@Pavril101]

BTS really is the very 1st band, atleast kpop boy group that tackles issues in the society. Most kpop group before BTS only focus on bop songs, repetitive catchy songs or love songs. I guess its partly becoz of the Rap line who came from underground scene where they really spit bars and things that actually makes sense. Most BTS songs were co produced by Suga and RM specially in their early Albums. Thats why the lyrics and emotions BTS brings are real and raw becoz they made it themselves, it actually came from them. Unlike other group where the songs are manufactured without input from the members of the group.

[@dafnid7294]

So just some info about the word SKY, that is in captions in the lyrics. It refers to the top three most prestigious schools in Korea, the Seoul Uni, Korea Uni and Yonsei Uni. Also, N.O stands for No Offense.

[@RandomZone4]

And to think, that the members were top students. I could never handle such pressure.

[@cw5153]

Their first few albums helped me when i started thinking about college.

[@clacla9395]

"if you're not a number one, you're failure" that's the mindset of SOME people

[@allenjade8555]

The choreos.... please... dance practice or live performances reaction too 🙏🙏😊💜☕

[@riskaaaaaaas]

Alex you're smart 😆

[@Amicy]

Thank you

Suicide is the #1 cause of death for teens and youth ages 9-24 and a lot of that is probably due to stress to perform in school and bullying which is a huge problem in South Korea which you can see with the amount of Idols who have taken there own lives in the last 3-4 years

[@Shady-vy8uh]

Please react to BTS MAMA 2019 performance where they perform N.O & NO MORE DREAM
