Nice reaction. Bts debuted in 2013, coming from a small company being told by others they wouldn’t make it. Bts has three rappers and four vocalist. Each member has their own solo projects, the rappers even have mixtapes which they release for free. They write and produce their own music, along with their companies in-house producers. Bts has a wide range of different styles of music, as they like to try new things. You should check This is Bts by xceleste and Bts hardships 2013-2021 by xceleste to get to know them.

[@TournamentPodcast]

They definitely proved their doubters wrong. They've arguably become the most popular band of all-time! I can speak for the 3 of us - we're eager to check out more of their music. Thank you for watching, and your thoughtful comments.

[@janyaebron9757]

@@TournamentPodcast Yes, their hard work really paid off.

Dynamite was their first of three English songs that they released. These songs were released to help cheer people up, while going through the pandemic. They even released a album that talks about their experiences throughout the pandemic. Bts normally talks about real things in their music such as: mental health, loving yourself, youth and female empowerment, social injustices, etc.

I appreciate the insight. From what I hear they're a great group of guys! Comments like yours make me appreciate them even more. Thank you!

Hi Guys. Love your reactions and how respectful you are. I am a 55 year old Army who found them through my 26 year old daughter four years ago. They are a constant source of joy for me. My one and only con is that I find the animated flames (?) in your logo extremely distracting. It just might be me LOL. Anyway, enjoy the journey. You won't be disappointed.

I’ve danced most of my life that’s what started me watching them. I have a son around their age. I am blessed that he is of good mind, thought and heart like these young men. ARMY proud!💜

[@clkk1165]

The comment about this being a "feel good summer song" is spot on. That's exactly what they were going for. They wanted to put out something fun and happy to raise spirits during the pandemic.

[@jennies9146]

This is kind of tribute to pop legends like MJ. The dance moves and some lyrics related MJ and they inserted dance break when performing this song for an award shows called MMA 2020 ( Melon music award in Korea) which is completely a tribute to MJ and there are posters of Beatles etc... there in the MV. They used green screen becoz of pandemic n strict rules they had no choice but shoot mv like that. They shot this mv during start of the pandemic. But their actual plan of not to use green screen but want to shoot everything in natural set up but pandemic took away everything.

[@flyushkifly]

This song was written by a couple of Brits with a serious fascination towards American pop culture, obviously. 😅 ARMYs were conflicted because we are used to BTS writing their own lyrics, but they decided the original for the mood they wanted to spread. It is so catchy most of us were carried along with the wave. They have performed it live probably over 40 times, and Every. Single. Stage had a unique design and concept. Their stage designers and creative team in general are brilliant. The western industry dismissed them for a long time, and now they are taking notice and scrambling to drag them down out of jealousy and fear. Refer to the latest Billboard magazine cover story.

[@raya6532]

I enjoyed your reaction and looking forward to more! I’m 44 and a huge music fan (thanks to my uncles and a few other older people I grew up with who introduced me to the classics). I absolutely love certain artists from completely different eras and music genres but never liked generic pop music in general. My favorite artists are those like Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Sex Pistols, Minor Threat, Metallica, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Michael Jackson, Prince, Public Enemy, WuTang Clan, Arcade Fire, Beyoncé. I kept coming across articles about kpop and assumed it’s Korean manufactured pop music and never looked into it. But then I saw this group called BTS a Korean group on the cover of Time magazine and Forbes, appearing on late night talk shows, that was selling out stadiums in the US and globally….singing in Korean and being compared to the Beatles specifically for being a pop group invading the US and becoming a sensation. I checked out their music out of curiosity. Then decided to look into their history in South Korea and how they became so big. Found myself completely impressed by the fact they started off as basically the only group in an indie/start up label and, against all odds fighting against the media and huge labels trying to keep them down, and managed to grow a global audience singing in Korean, and now contributing 5B dollars annually to the Korean economy. Their history and their early music was VERY punk to me. Looking up their lyrics and watching their live performances made me realize they are up there with some of the greatest and hardworking artists in history. I love so much of their music that includes so many genres and each member is so talented (unlike other boybands who had mainly one frontman and the rest as backups). I don’t expect everyone to love their music because people have different tastes but there is absolutely no doubt they are making music history by proving that music has no language barrier if it’s good. I am gonna go through the rest of your BTS reactions and hope you like them.

I am so sorry I only just found this. Now I am going to have to bing you all to catch up. So looking forward to this idea. It is also funny to watch you all work backwards though their songs. So instead of watching them evolve, you are going to watch them get younger. HAHA I do think one of the things that it can be very important to understand the meaning of some of their songs such as Black Swan was based on Martha Grahams famous quote “a dancer dies twice - once when they stop dancing, and this first death is the more painful”. Their song and video is about a fear of losing your love of your art (for them music and dance).

[@flyushkifly]

Those are TinyTan figurines, I believe. They did have models before they launched TinyTan, though.

[@sugasmeow]

I’m glad you liked this song. Thank you for your reaction. Can’t you just say that Dynamite it the baseline and rank the other songs against it? Like the next song is better or not as good. Then place the songs where you think they fall based on that. For example, I liked Butter more than dynamite, so Butter would be above dynamite. I liked on more than dynamite but not as much as butter, so on would fall between dynamite and butter. I hope you got my point. Thanks again.
