BTS - 'IDOL' M/V 101 Explained | Music Video Reaction

[@thylionheart]

One of the reasons IDOL was so colorful and wacky in visuals, including a lot of CGJ and green screen, is bc haters of kpop often criticize kpop music videos for being too “colorful” or “weird” or having too many special effects. So BTS went “lol okay” and took that and turned it up to 100 to be like, “we don’t care what you think

[@ot7stan207]

wait till you find the video on u tube where army is singing/chanting this song before bts even gets on the stage. its such a powerful anthem of self love, and a self affirmation in a sense. i never liked this song when i lived in korea cuz i didnt know what it was about, but after coming back to the states and i hear it.. i hear the strength of the lyrics

[@aaaaaaniiii]

SAME!!!

[@UiU24]

BTS always DEEPER than we thinks, love them

[@marinal.]

yep

[@grantdoggett7225]

Nah

[@ablackpearl]

@@grantdoggett7225 why mad

[@tarisindanarie34]

even their outfits here has a meaning which further emphasizes their message of embracing the stereotypes that have been thrown at them and not giving a shit basically :). J-hope is wearing a Bugs Bunny sweater because he's been called lanky and/or absolute childish, Suga wears a Snow White sweater because people says he's complexion is "too white" and V wears a sort of a grandpa outfit because people have made fun of the way he dresses which is oldschool or has an old style.

[@tempestkorea6605]

I'm glad that you guys are taking a look at more explanation videos. There is a lot to take in in their songs/MVs, and it's not always easy to make a good sense of them after one watch. It'd be great if you guys could go back to the explanations for some of the other songs you already reacted to as well, particularly Blood, Sweat & Tears. BTS also has a fictional universe called the BU (Bangtan Universe) that spans across multiples songs, albums, and eras. Among the ones you guys reacted to already, Blood, Sweat & Tears and Fake Love are part of the BU. The BU starts with I Need U (2015), so if you guys are interested in doing a deeper dive, you may want to give I Need U a listen and slowly work your way back up to Fake Love (2018) and Film Out (2021). For now, I recommend you giving Spring Day (2017) a try, since it looks like you guys haven't really listened to their ballads yet. The MV for the song is also amazing and full of symbolisms and references, so definitely check out an explanation video along with it.

[@marija-katarinajukic708]

Omg pleeeease!!!! But for spring day there is an amazing explain video done by Italian army (I think that’s how the channel is called) and it’s a bit longer, but I’m sure everyone would appreciate if you guys reacted to it. But be prepared to be heartbroken :(

[@erivera9313]

The person responsible for creating their videos is a damn genius! Needless to say, BTS are lyrical geniuses too!

[@lpjm]

This song goes crazy when they perform it live in concert ! I hope yall can get into the Bangtan Universe, i wish i could go back to experience it all over again, its that good.. its just so ahead of its time and cinematic ! Im sure yall will be great at predictions 😩

[@schafferable]

Every song has so much connection detail to another song or theme..Like in Fake Love where V is in a hallway with all the cell phones lighting up. On the wall at the end of the hallway, the words Save Me are written but flipped around it says I'm Fine - 2 songs on the same album. Also at the Grammys, the wall art being heisted and replaced with BTS staging colors all mean something too. Check it out. Every song is a story within a story. The detail in each song is totally missed by the western music industry including their singing and stamina to dance, with creativity connecting the dots - They deserve more than a Grammy - and will never be able to figure out why BTS is so much more than popular.

[@UiU24]

btw u should checkout BTS Butter Grammys performance!!!

[@joaniewwh3502]

that's why we keep coming back for more. bts always gives MORE. 💜

[@kaumrebahan8433]

Once you dig BTS. You will understand more deeply that their music has something that can move someone's heart.

[@jinphany.]

Imo the multiple clones of BTS dancing are mocks of when ppl say “they all look the same” abs yoongi wearing the snow shite jumper is bc he used To get made fun of for being really pale!

[@V_NYC]

Yaaah! You covered the Explained for our BTS’ IDOL! Thanks for appreciating it! :]

[@marinal.]

Hi, I am back. Good reaction, ty. So glad u watched this. This song is actually not part of the BU storyline. All of their songs are not part of it just some. They have more than 300 songs guys! They love hiding messages in many songs. You always have to dive deep no matter the song. Some songs have more layers than others though. Hugs. Later's. -NY USA Army 💜💜💜

[@minamiyoonji8699]

yes. i think all of you might like BTS Universe contents. especially with so many theories out there.

[@em_shaw23]

I just got in a ridiculously deep hole and watched y’all for about 4 hours without even realizing. Y’all are hilarious and can’t wait to see more in the future! Also if you’re interested in doing another group, I think y’all would really like ATEEZ. They have a lot of personality as well and I think you would enjoy their music and music videos. ❤️

[@sarah-rp8jn]

yall seriously need to watch their live perfomances because the idol mma 2018 is insane theyre dancing traditional dances and songs and then switch to idol with a beat with korean instruments its like so big they take the whole stage... and its likely for any live perfomances of them.. you guys would appreciate it even more seeing theyre singing live with emontions in their voices srsly try it out

[@jimins_missing_height777]

Also there are a lot of insiders hidden in the MV, that's why I think you should also react to the explanation by xCeleste. It's focusing on the things only Army could know

[@emmajean3351]

would love to see you guys react to spine breaker and the explained video 😌😌

[@deniseannlange4519]

ENHYPEN debuted in 2020 from BeLift Labs, part of the BigHit/HYBE labels... they are like the "little, little brothers" of BTS and TXT.... As with BTS& TXT, they have a storyline woven through much of their songs/MV's.... ENHYPEN's is a Vampire/Paranormal vibe.. ENHYPEN's songs/MV's in order with some "easter eggs" for their Vampire/Paranormal ongoing storyline: Given-Taken Let Me In Drunk-Dazed - watch both original and the somewhat darker summer version FEVER Tamed-Dashed Blessed-Cursed ( newest ) Others: Not For Sale Hey Tayo Polaroid Love Upper Side Dreaming Go Big or Go Home Just a Little Bit live Blockbuster (live ft. Yeochun of TXT)

Reaction to bts grammy 2022♡

[@taekook8000]

You have no idea how long I've been waiting for this video!!

[@catbravo994]

It was great you watched this video. I know when I first saw the Idol music video there was some things that I didn't understand until I watched the explanation video. I can't tell you how much I have learned and I am so glad for it.

[@farzanabatool542]

BTS the one and only group 🙈💜💜

[@kitn136]

your reaction to the condom "scandal" was so funny ahaha

[@bulanayu9529]

can u please explain to me about it? what kind of "scandal" was it?

[@a.a.stanyoongles308]

@@bulanayu9529 basically when jin posted a photo of him eating at the back if you zoom in you could see that theres a condom lying on the ground. bighit released a statement that it was in fact a condom and that it was gift from a fan. personally speaking its not rlly a "scandal" they just labeled it as that considering that korea is a very conservative country. all in all its not that serious and is now considered as an inside joke of armys and even the kpop community itself lol.

[@candicesmith-mackenzie6303]

I always look forward to your reactions. 😘💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@aminatasoumare5634]
