TOMORROW! (I forgot to say this in the video) I will be doing a live reaction to Super Tuna!! As it's quite short I thought it would make a good live Reaction! LINK BELOW! Tomorrow 830pm UK Time! www.twitch.tv/gotgames_tb?sr=a

[@sandys1890]

They were invited to that radio show under the guise of celebrating 100 days or something...And then those older rappers just started talking shit to them

[@BunnyOnTheCoast]

Super Tuna is the greatest dance phenomenon...especially since Jin told ARMY not to make a big deal of it... then it went VIRAL!!!🤣🤣🤣🐟🐟🐟

[@BunnyOnTheCoast]

But beware..........it gets STUCK in your head....like a happy virus!!!🐟🐟🐟🤣🤣🤣

[@MeL_LcoolJ]

Awesome reaction as always! And the way you recognize your followers much like what Bangtan does for ARMY, is so appreciated. Not to mention the props you give the TROB documakers (shout out to Aneesa!). The series is indeed top notch. 💜

I"m glad you didn't cut your tears from the video, Luke. I'm a 68 year old man and I've shed many tears with BTS. I love BTS! 💜 I'm so glad that I've lived this long to have had the chance for them to find me, when I needed them most, two years ago.

[@TaylorCanada8]

I am a 63 year old ARMY from Canada and feel exactly the same. I discovered them just before the first pandemic lockdowns and they are the only thing that have gotten me through. I am so happy to have found them and they give me so much hope for future generations. Borahae

[@hangryhippo2425]

How lovely to read 💜 thank you for sharing with us! I discovered BTS in 2019 when I was 38 and my life has gotten so so much better since! I’m generally happier, I’m more open talking about my feelings, I strive to communicate better w my spouse and my kids- all thanks ti Bangtan! And Im just so happy my kids have BTS as role models 💜

[@nunajin8936]

I am glad for you, too.... I hope you have a long life healthily....

[@shawnemmerling7067]

I'm a 53 year old woman and me too ✋️ 😌 😪 🤪

[@esnftan11]

Same here and I'm 50 years old. So proud of them!

[@silvy4413]

Hi Luke ! So, RM and Suga’s parents were the ones that didn’t want their kids choosing music. They wanted them to study hard and become some kind of professional, so they really were adamant about it. I believe RM’s mom broke his computer because he was writing lyrics on it, and Suga’s parents were not supportive whatsoever . He said it in this clip that he starved many a night to pursue his dream. So yeah, the school system in Korea is harsh, but these parents believed a music career was even harder. This video makes you realize how important ARMY was for them back then, and continues to be today. They know this . We know this. And we are growing exponentially. Why? Because they deserve everything and more ! I truly believe ARMY isn’t just a fandom. I believe ARMY is a way of life, and above all ,a family. A family that is ready to embrace every race, gender, language, etc…and is present when we need it. A lot of people suffer from loneliness, and other stuff, and I’ve noticed through KZbin ( and other social platforms ) , that by communicating with other ARMIES, life becomes less lonely for them, and real friendships are formed ,because we all have the love for BTS in common. That is priceless! To RM, Jin,Suga,J-Hope,Jimin, V, and Jungkook, I want to say THANK YOU GENTLEMEN! Thank you for helping ARMY with your music, your lyrics, your messages, your humbleness, with your laughter, and yes, absolutely thank you for your HARD WORK . We are still behind you , even after all these years! To you BTS, and my fellow Armies, BORAHAE ! 💜🇨🇦

[@GOTGames]

I love what you said and agree! It feels like Army is full of different people but all with one idea underlined everything We are all equal 💜❤️

[@silvy4413]

@@GOTGames You got it !

[@skyxii_]

"You've worked hard" is the perfect sentence to describe a dark side of the korean culture. The work effort in east-asian countries are in general like that. It should motivate you to continue better yourself. So yeah, it's a culture thing. Just like the school system in South Korea. Almost everything is based on how much you are working, learning and improving yourself. It's definitely pressuring.

[@OrualMuse]

As a friend once said "yes, it is a compliment but compliments could also put pressure on you". We used to work together, he is asian btw and he used to say "thank you for your hard work" but he didnt use it everytime, only when we spent an insane amount of hours trying to get the best results or when we faced critical problems and we managed. I didnt feel it as a pressure but as a recognition but when he didnt say that words i was like "oh... we didnt do well today?"😁 But i clearly remember one French lady saying to him "you dont need to thank them, they are paid for this" and he just look at her and replied "you are wrong, we are paid to do the job not for the passion we put on that". Then i thought that i prefer to work with him than with her, even if that meant to work more hours.

[@GOTGames]

Wow, thank you for explaining that to me. I understand it's a culture thing so what is normal to me will be different to others.

[@skyxii_]

@@OrualMuse Interesting! Thank you for telling this story. And I agree, it is a compliment and pressure at the same time ^^

[@skyxii_]

@@GOTGames No need to thank me. I am glad I could help you understanding it a bit more. We are all learning something every day, so continue asking when you don't understand one thing

[@GOTGames]

This one hit a bit different! Hard to watch them go through everything they did ❤

[@karunaverma5025]

Yes it's really hits different i always got teary eyes..

[@ace.0712]

It just gets harder. We are here with you tho

[@putrisaraswati5710]

I warn you. It will be harder as every chapter goes.

[@jerseybultaoreune6107]

We all needed a moment... The Cyphers hit different after you see that. Rap line slapped his ass straight into obscurity. 😎🔥💜

[@hopeandfaithonelove]

What blows me away is here we are, almost exactly 9 yrs after they made their debut, they're global superstars but they somehow have remained the same humble, sincere guys who don't take any of this for granted & who genuinely love & appreciate their Army fanbase. I may not have been there in the beginning but I'll def be there till the end. BORAHAE 💜

[@Myjotime]

Exactly, in J_hope party last week they all were shy and talking about being with celebrities!! You guys are famous worldwide!! They don’t even get that 🥹

[@BeThePurpleStarlight]

Now you understand why RM and Suga made Joke and Agust D? Because they were treated like in that interview

[@pslinky]

When they say "you've worked hard" it's like saying good job to them. It's similar to "fighting!" Too, like good luck etc to the best of my knowledge 💜 it is annoying to see them being called girls for wearing makeup, , but also annoying that people like using being compared to a girl as an insult like being a girl is somehow "less" . We need to stop assigning genders to things like fashion etc. Don't worry about getting emotional. Men need to know it's ok to show their feelings. It's ok to cry 💜💜💜 I'm 49, I got my kids into BTS, but almost every friend I try to talk to about BTS looks at me like I'm too old for it, or I'm crazy. And some friends just openly mock me or act tell me I'm a cougar for like them just because they're young and attractive. And most won't even listen when I try to explain why they're so great. It's depressing. But I proudly rock that merch and show my pride in them no matter what. You should see all the BTS/kpop stickers on my car. I'm not scared to show the world what I love, it's just too bad the world is full of judgemental xenophobic ignorant asses. 🤬and you're right you're only here once. My husband died Jan 1 of this year, and I lost a lot of my fears (cause the worst fear happened making all other fears pale in comparison) and I started just being me 100% like it or hate it idc. I don't have anyone to answer to anymore , meaning the only person whose opinion mattered, aside from my kids, died. Now I'm just me and I do what I want, dress as I want, etc. I ran out of fucks to give with regards to what people think the day he died. 💜

[@TaylorCanada8]

I am so sorry for your loss ARMY. I relate to much of what you said. People can't understand that it is the love of BTS as people that makes us such dedicated fans. I am in my 60s and so tired of people insinuating that I love BTS because they are attractive young men...give me a break,..lol. They could be 60 year old fat men and I would love them just as much...they are talented, caring, good humans who use their talents for good...I couldn't be prouder to be a fan. It's really hard to explain to people who aren't fans...it's a process of getting to know and love them and many people are too closed minded to get to know anything about them (besides the 3 english pop songs they have heard which make them believe they know what BTS is all about). Borahae and I hope you continue to find strength from BTS moving forward.

[@Mimikoo]

I am in my 40s and have no friends that like BTS. None. But I have a BTS pin on my purse and a BTS fob on my car key. I love them and have been giving them my support for over 5 years. The nice thing is- you never walk alone when you have Army. We are here for you. Borahe 💜💜💜

[@MariaChavez-ey5sr]

I am sorry for your loss. I’m similar I don’t have any Army fans and I’m in my late 40s too. My closest friends all think I’ve jumped off the deep end and are weirded out I love BTS and nod and smile but won’t listen. Ah well. I’m rocking the merch and I went to the theatre live play alone. Never alone with Army. Borahae 💜

[@josey119]

May beautiful memories of your husband comfort you, dear army! And I'm 54 and have similar experiences as you describe about people mocking me for loving BTS. But you're right to not give any Fs about opinions of judgemental people. Life is too precious to hide ourselves. Borahae 💜

[@julieburns2218]

Same happened to me my fiance died bts helped me through the depression.

[@lw4067]

Love your reactions Luke. This is why BTS gets to people. They have never hesitated to show us their emotions and tell us how they feel. They've always acknowledged ARMY and it makes us feel like a family. That's why we love them 💜💜💜

[@GOTGames]

I love that! All of them just pouring their hearts out to the world 💜❤️

[@davirtuoso]

I had never listened to anything by BTS until I saw your first black swan reaction, and my journey with BTS has been entirely with you (i've watched every single BTS reaction from you). I'm so grateful I found you to lead me into loving BTS too - ARMY for life!

[@tamarahaas967]

They went through so much, and they never let it define them. They remain so humble and positive.

[@GOTGames]

💯💯💯💯

[@tamarahaas967]

I love them so much. You watch videos from the beginning until now, and they are the same young men. They have never let fame get to their heads. They remain humble and very thankful. And let's not forget to love Bang PD for loving and being a father figure to them. He has always been by their sides through thick or thin.

[@loveIetter]

it’s always so nice to see someone start and go through the bts journey so genuinely

[@GOTGames]

💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@carrieg1050]

Aw, Luke, your sweet & genuine reactions are always... the *SWEETEST* !! (lol) Whenever I watch one of your reactions and BTS makes *ME* cry - then I know I'll look at you and see *YOUR* tears as well!! It's amazing how BTS touches your heart and soul, isn't it?? It's hard to put into words. I feel like they're my sons, in a weird way (again, hard to explain). Like they're a part of my family - and it upsets me when they're upset... On the flip side, when they laugh - I laugh too. (Gotta take the bad with the good, I guess.) But, it still stabs me in the gut when I see them upset. Well, you understand... I know you do. Your heart is *HUGE* - and your emotions run deep!! *NEVER* be afraid of showing your tears!! Your subscribers understand, and more importantly, support you - whether you're laughing or crying!! *K-POP ON! FIGHTING!*

[@kimmyers3389]

Sat here with tears streaming down my face-my heart broke listening to their emotions, fears, ambitions and how much love they had (and still do) for the ARMY....BTS is my bias forever!!! Thank you, Luke...for the tears and the joy these 7 bring to us. (The 8th heart is for you.)💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 + 💜

[@GOTGames]

Aw Kim! Much love 💜💜💜💜❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@cherylmercado7882]

They eventually proved they were stronger than their circumstances! They are truly amazing!💜

[@angelakirk5527]

I agree, it was very emotional. They worked hard and deserve the success they have achieved. They never fail to include us Armys in that either. ❤

[@oliviamp6859]

We LOVE BTS or course, but Armys love you too as one of the few authentic, genuine reactors that actually decided to give them a chance. I've been showing your BLACK SWAN reaction to "Anti-BTS" people and it has convinced a couple of them to check the group out more! Can you imagine how BTS must feel after these humble beginnings to have gone to the WHITE HOUSE recently? Thank you, your reaction made my week (and I have a busy hectic week between two European cities! )🤣

[@AriavenR]

Thank you for your honest reaction. My respect for you has increased even more after hearing you talk about defining people for who they are over their looks, and after seeing you share your vulnerable side with us - thank you for keeping your tears in the video, seeing you cry made me leak some tears too. It felt cathartic to share that moment with you.

[@rikhmjustsomeguywithmousta4971]

The worst suicide case in kpop for me was Shinee Jonghyun, man was handsome, talented asf but wasn’t made for hard idol industry. He’s still in our hearts

[@Veronica.1371]

The saddest to me was *SULLI* of F(X) because a month later her best friend *GOO HARA* also committed suicide.

[@annachristinanotyet4678]

This is possibly because you were AT LEAST aware of them through music and variety shows if not Fans of their Groups and or Solo projects but saying xy saddest suicide (in Kpop or everywhere) is kinda odd (if not a bit mean)....I mean I don't blame you if you weren't aware of the others some people manage to "not care". But I didn't know much of either of them back then and I still cried for all of them. Because no matter what, their members have been devasted, their families and real friends (who often happen to be Idols too) have been devasted and traumatzied and there are Idols who by now went through loosing someone that way more than once in their life and that really shouldn't be. Not to forget their real life families who love(d) them pre-debut and thought their boy or girl (soon) is going on to be happily married etc.

[@skyxii_]

I love the honesty and vulnerability in your reactions. Please, it is so beautiful that you are able to cry and let it all out. Remember that we feel the exact same way with BTS. They make us feel something and take us along on their path. Love you and don't change! 💜💜💜

[@natalieannedowns]

I could feel my blood boiling when all those 'wanna be gangsters' were critising RM and Suga about the way they wanted to perform their music. We're are they now I wonder??? And Suga's White House statement came into my mind. 'Its ok to be different'. Luke, thanks always for your honesty and vulnerability in expressing to everyone what you think about things. 💜💜💜

[@GOTGames]

It's okay to be different! Just saying that out loud nearly brings a tear to my eye 💜❤️

[@purrrnesianparrapio9088]

The guy who called them girls apologised after they became worldwide famous and recently got into an fight with other rapper and is in jail , i dont know if he is out or not but i guess karma

[@61crispy]

I am so glad you decided not to cut yourself crying - showing emotions is a wonderful thing. The fact that you are always so open with your emotions is one of the reasons I enjoy your reactions - not that I like to see you cry! But it just shows that you get it - you understand BTS. BTS had such a hard time early on and seeing this again makes me cry every time.

[@annanamoose9943]

By the way RM responded BFree’s career was essentially ended. Instead of feeding into the drama BTS continued to work hard and become world idols not just Korean idols

[@GOTGames]

Just shows that all that effort pays off! 💜❤️

[@purrrnesianparrapio9088]

@@GOTGames and the funny thing is he called them girls for wearing makeup ,but he also started wearing makeup😂

[@nootroot5750]

18:57 In that interview, they (underground rappers) basically mocked them for taking "the easy route" or "selling out" or whatever to go to the more mainstream "idol" process rather than staying underground. No matter how Suga and RM said they did it because they wanted to have their voices be heard by a wider audience and get their music out there, which wasn't happening through underground, they had selective hearing and basically used the whole interview to make fun of them and twist their words, talking about how they gave away their artistry. It's commendable that they were able to stay cool and offer classy responses. Another thing is how incredibly sexist this clip is. "Hip-hop is a manly and macho culture" Uhh? Okay? As if female rappers don't exist, first of all. And the whole "make-up" thing. First of all everyone in the media industry wear make-up, it's just a fact. From your local weatherman to your favorite actor to a singer on TV. But also, I hate how people use "being feminine" or liking "feminine things" as an insult as if it's something to be ashamed of to "lower yourself to acting like a woman" or whatever. It shouldn't be like that! That's such a toxic idea, and just perpetuates looking down on women or things women do/like. We shouldn't put labels like "feminine" or "masculine" on things in the first place, but since society does, we shouldn't look down on one over the other. Labels like crying/being emotional or makeup is feminine, etc. I hope in the future, society becomes less label-obsessed and more accepting. I think we're slowly heading in that direction which gives me hope lol.

[@Cris-ib6iv]

Hi Luke! This was quite an emotional reaction...I couldn't agree more with you when you said that what defines you as a person, your true value, it's not how you look or what you wear. The boys were so humble and wise at such a young age! Wonderful role models for so many 💜 Looking forward to your weekly reactions 🙂

[@forbangtan]

I'm not watching it for the first time but whenever i saw Rise of Bangtan my eyes just filled with tears with a little smile 🥺😊 so in love with these boys 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@karensebastian81]

I cry Everytime I see this. It's why I love them so much. I am forever in their debt for saving my life. I had given into giving up. I had about a week left before my organs would begin to fail and I would die. I refused to go to the hospital. I didn't care anymore. And then BTS found me and made me want to live. They and their music is so inspiring and uplifting that one can't deny their love for humanity. If anyone here is reading this and needs to just talk please contact me and I'm there for you. God bless you for being such a wonderful, sensitive person and showing your emotions. Boys don't cry but men do. Much Love.

I definitely want u to react this RISE OF BANGTAN chapters every FRIDAY!! U will get more emotional everytime u see this

[@jovankariveroi513]

There is a really sweet anecdote regarding the part where Jimin was delivering the fan mail. Since J-Hope was considered ugly in Corea, he didn’t receive fan mail. Si Jimin wrote a bunch of cards and letters and gave them to him so he wouldn’t be the only one not to get fan mail. They are all precious 😢 💜

[@shannonslutzky4754]

I knew that j-hope went thru that time period where he received hate and stuff but I hadn’t heard this. So sweet, and unsurprising, to hear what Jimin did but it breaks my heart that there was ever times that a sunshine like hobi was treated this way. How strong he has to be to get thru that 💜💜💜💜

[@jovankariveroi513]

@shannonslutzky I totally agree. How people can be so cruel I’ll never understand

[@Mimikoo]

That moment when you affect someone else ... it is today. Watching you get what it means to be Army and understand what we are going thru by fighting for even basic decency for the members made me feel seen. They knew how ridiculed they were by the media and by other artists and Army stood by them refusing to be embarrassed. We called out those in the media for their xenophobic comments and rude treatment of BTS. And we never left their side. You get it. We still fight to this day for them to be treated with the respect they Earned. Thank you.

[@angartsnirex]

'youve worked hard' is simply the greater way to say good job! Or you did great. You dont simply acknowledge the outcome, you also acknowledge the process that was need to be done to give people a great outcome. And i love that.

[@mavin0975]

“We will work hard/You’ve worked hard” is a cultural phrase that Koreans and Japanese use. This is a literal translation but it means, “We will do our best/Great job.” There is another phrase that they use and that’s before and after meal when people say “I'll eat well” and “I’ve eaten well,” respectively, which means, “Thank you for preparing the food” and “That was delicious,” respectively. I hope this helps.

Hoo boy, this was a tough one - you're definitely not alone with getting emotional. I've never actually watched that interview with B-Free before because reading about it made me angry enough. What an absolute prize prick honestly. They weren't able to back chat him at the time due to him being older than them and with more experience in the industry so instead they wrote the Cyphers in response to him and others like him. So do continue to listen to them if you need some catharsis after this!!

Oh Luke, we all understand how hard this is to watch. The emotions it pulls up... The pain you feel for them; and all who are struggling. Just remember, you are not alone. There's no shame in "Letting your emotions leak out your eyes". When I saw you crying, I wanted to give you a hug, and let you know we're here for you. So a virtual hug will have to do. That's a large part of the draw of BTS. They are real. They are willing to show their true emotions. They are not afraid to be who they are... And that can include the uncomfortable parts as well. Thank you for your wise words Luke, I wish everyone felt the same. Borahae Luke 💜

I’m a 15 years old army, I became a bts fan in the beginning of 2021 and they truly did change my life. They’re such humble and loving people and their talent is on a another level. It’s truly so hard to describe my love for them, I’ve shed so many tears, had so many laughs beacuse of them which I’m thankful for. I do have a hard time enjoying my life with bts but my parents are really not supportive or happy for me at all, I still remember how my dad threw away my album. But no one can stop my love for them and the happiness they give me.

[@LadyPinkmonsta]

I cry over Bangtan all the time, it's basically a life skill at this point

[@melodysmith674]

Their dancing got me first. I’m amazed at how in sync they always are. Their lyrics made me ARMY. How open and honest they are, showing us so many aspects of their lives and how connected they are to ARMY is what truly puts them above the rest. Tell me someone else who has or can bring together so many people from so many counties, and really every age group, with their music and love. Yes, they had struggles and overcame a lot, but don’t we all. At least most of us. Would they be who they are if they hadn’t? Would the lyrics of their songs be so powerful and moving if everything had come easy to them? Yes, it’s sad to see all they had to go through, but I think it just makes me appreciate more who they are. It didn’t harden them. I think that’s part of what makes them so connectable. We can all see some part of ourselves in them. It makes them human. It makes them one of us. A connection is what brings true love, not idol worship. Loved the reaction. 💜💜💜

[@blarmy827]

8:00 THIS right here is the entire reason that their music is SO important… it’s a very different kind of pressure w a somewhat limited amount of opportunities open to these young kids in their culture. What they’re singing about isn’t pressure against themselves… they’re message isn’t about them… they’re message is for the youth in their culture… and in effect around the world as well. They’re being beacons of hope and support for people around the world who grew with them . 💜 19:11 it’s the biggest bunch of bs and we all LOATHE this and how they were treated… what I LOVE about this though is that rm and suga never said the other guys were wrong… rm told him if he feels like that then he should feel like that… they were kind, polite, knowledgeable and understanding… let’s be real though… we know these boys got the last word and the last laugh… these moments built their character and made them who they are even more…struggles are very real and a part of life… and it’s hard to see… but the constant push back from the industry and the hip hop community in Korea.. it caused bts to be closer and stronger and bts and army to form such a real bond and “you and us against the world” feeling… and it has never stopped… it’s what makes us cry at anything they do… bc we understand what it took to get here . 💜 25:45 those tears are pure army love right there … I’m proud of you 😁keep doing you my dude

I recommend watching the 2018 Hong Kong MAMA concert and J-Hope's speech. In Korea, subscribers

[@tamarahaas967]

Well work hard just means they will continue to work hard and become better and better with each performance. They want to prove themselves to people. That they are just some normal boyband. They will put 100% in every performance they give. They have proved that. Look at these beautiful boys now.

[@cathonbonbon9430]

The "work hard" thing is kind of like a greeting or a saying that is commonly used. It translates to "work hard" which seems strange in English because we don't say that. Many Koreans use this sentence as a greeting whenever they part. It’s a way of wishing one another prosperity and success. So by cheering for others and telling them to continue to work hard, you really wish for them to become successful. “Work hard” is the literal translation, but in reality, the meaning it conveys is more along the lines of “keep up the good work” or “good job everyone”.

I m a 71yr grandmother n have been a fan of BTS since 2018. Happened to listen to their songs by accident n feel in love with them. I recently became an ARMY in Sept 2021 n glad that I m one now. Their songs make me feel good n not sad or alone all d time. Will always love n support BTS FOREVER 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@mandeefarley1399]

This series has hit me in the feels SO HARD. Seeing them feel like they weren’t enough breaks my heart. Some of them are still really hard on themselves. They started at the bottom with a tiny company and rose to superstardom. In your face haters!!!

[@andreannmichot3095]

Your reactions are so beautiful, never be ashamed of your tears for they show your humanity and heart. Okay quite a few of those funny clips are from Rookie King, which came before run BTS, and it's also a pretty good watch of only 8 or 9 episodes. Remember, you nice keep going! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜+💜

[@hangryhippo2425]

Honestly I can’t get into other groups (kpop or otherwise) the way I am w Bangtan. You can tell from all the snippets of their lives that they’ve shared with us HOW GENUINE AND PASSIONATE they are. Mind you, I’m 40yo and very cynical, and I can tell very quickly when someone is being fake. So being in this Bangtan rabbit hole is like breathing in fresh air, knowing hard work is rewarded, being good people is appreciated, especially in current climate… I’m just so pleased to have Bangtan in my life and my kids too! They have amazing role models to look up to 💜

I’ve been binge-watching your BTS reaction videos the last couple of days and I can honestly say that watching you discover them has brought me back to when I first found them in 2014. I’ve already seen all of their content an innumerable amount of times, but watching you and your genuine reactions makes me relive the excitement I felt the first time I saw their videos and listened to their songs. Thank you for giving them a fair chance and welcome to the fandom 😊💜

[@demikats]

That was a beautiful powerful video. RESPECT!!👏

[@MariaChavez-ey5sr]

The Rise of Bangtan series is IMO better than Netflix etc because it’s more authentic and it’s an emotional journey and story. BTS is talk about things no one would mention like the pressure on kids and tell them to just stop and find their own happiness. They’ve also faced so many hardships and understanding that is an important part of their underdog story. But from the debut the Army found a group saying things that resonated so deeply they fought hard alongside BTS uphill. FYI that criticism that RM and Suga faced continually from the underground rap community was addressed by the guys in the 4 Cyphers. In face Suga directly calls out the guy who calls them girls referring to “go home to Hawaii” where that guy is from. Every episode gets better.

[@wkin72]

I’m glad u didn’t cut your tears out. We’ve all had tears watching this series. This makes you appreciate them so much more. No one knows what they went through until you delve into their history.

[@susieangelo6410]

Thank you, Luke for your continuous love and understanding of BTS. 💜💜💜💜

[@Trkive]

Tears. Sobbing. Ugly crying. Loving them is law 🫂💜

[@NymeriaRhaenys]

I’m really pleased you decided to keep in your tears. It shows your true and raw emotion. It shows how much of a warm and empathic person you are. Didn’t help ME though, since I have seen all this and cry each time, then fighting it and I Had your tears hitting me too. Dammit. I’m so appreciative of you that you have included BTS on here and have embraced them with as much love as any ARMY that have loved them since they debuted. We are all Bulletproof. It brings me joy every single day that I hear my 7 year old son when he’s playing by himself and he’s singing BTS loudly and proudly. It makes me so proud. He is a happy boy for it. That;s what BTS make us. Without them, I wouldn’t be here today. I lost my brother 2 years ago, and I still am struggling to cope. I retreat in my head and focus on work instead, pretending it’s not real. When it hits me that he;s not just away somewhere, that he’s really gone, BTS actually are who I need to turn to to keep going. I know I’m just a tiny fish in the sea of ARMY, especially being in the UK, and they’ll never see or hear this from me, but I know how much they appreciate and love each and every one of us so it’s okay. You are part of this love too. They will be so thankful to you that you too are spreading love about them on your platform. Your own personal platform and you’re gracing them with it. You deserve just as much praise because your hard work is being shared with BTS and all the other music you react to. Thank you. Thanks for showing us your journey through your BTS discovery. Stay with us. :) 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 - 💜 - 💜💜 - 💜ARMY

[@Isaog7]

Let me get my glas of wine first. OK, Play 💜

[@bellegraves]

Never cut the tears. We’re crying right along with you. 💜 As for the we’ll work hard thing, I’m not Korean but from what I’ve heard over the years, saying “you’re working hard” is a common expression you can say to a person as a greeting where appropriate. So I’d guess them saying “we’ll work hard!” is a similar thing. Hard work is such a large part of Korean culture, it would make sense that they’d integrate it into common expressions.

[@chasinnc]

I have been Army for almost two years now, so not as long as most people here. I started this series and then got sidetracked by everything else they have going on and kept telling myself I needed to come back to it. Well, you’ve brought me back to it and I’m experiencing it in time with you. All those emotions they are feeling are so strongly shared in this series, so I’m smiling one minute and sobbing the next. It’s just so much to take in and their love for Army is astounding and powerful. So thanks for doing this series. I feel like I’m watching it with a friend. Never forget you’re awesome, Luke, or that you are having such a positive affect on Army. I think we’re here to stay. 💜

[@wkin72]

BTS had the message to the youth to follow their dream, this is why they were disliked and shunned but they preserved with more messages and they grew to what they are now. They are advocates for the younger generation 💜💜😍 They were so slammed, they have been through so much.. this is why Army is so protective of them.

[@EuSouOtome]

You know Luke, if you search randomly on the web you will find ARMY bumping heads in all directions but that just how protective we are with the boys, cause we've seen they been through so much shxt they don't deserve. So yes, we don't hesitate not even in a second to defend them and it will always be like this. I've been an ARMY for a long time and it's been so long since I watched this documentary for the first time, and now seeing Namjoon 9 years later repeat the same words on the Dinner, that he's afraid to disappoint us got me crying really fast lol cause we're so proud of them I forgot that he could even fear that. The thing I like most about your reactions are your eyes you know, we can feel the sincerity in them. It's very nice to welcome you to our family Luke, our Home. 💜

[@inamardesouza]

You love them the same reason we love. We can relate to them cause family, school, society and religion pressures us to go on a different direction that our hearts lead us. BTS thought us to reflect, deepen and love who we are, expressing to the world. No matter what. I am 51 years old Army and I suffered bullying again last year. When I was a teenager I never cared about bullying because I thought I was ok and those people were mean or weak. But at 51 for the first time I felt sorrow for myself. 🥲Can you believe it? Then BTS found me in November and made my journey to healing. It is not easy for anyone at any stage. But if we know who we are we become stronger every step of the way.😉

[@trudieconroy4167]

Now you can understand why Army gets up in arms when anyone hurts them puts them down. We all have their backs.

[@karlafm24]

Never apologise for crying. We appreciate the honesty. We appreciate the love for our boys. 💜💜💜

[@AnaMaria-zy7qv]

Great reaction!! It was very hard for them at the beginning. The interview with BFree... you can see their faces, so sad!! And JHope almost never received fan mail, they said he was ugly and had to leave the group... but they overcomed all that and are the excellent people that are today!!

[@mitsuko0xidized]

Thank you for not cutting out the emotions that you were feeling, thank you for your vulnerability! This chapter in particular always gets me in the feels and so I'm so happy that you felt secure enough in yourself and trust your community to share that very raw expression of emotion; I was moved by your sincerity. 💜

[@lagunamellojournal9467]

Luv your crying eyes. We are crying with you Luke. It's heartbreaking to see their history. How idealistic they were and they are still right now. They don't change. Still continue to make ARMY proud of them. 💜

[@jkthv61313]

RM is literally a linguistic genius, his wordplay is insane, and that is why they have meaningful songs (Please watch the meaning behind their song DDAENG)

[@jooniejjang4144]

32:55 armys always discuss how namjoon is a multilingual genius and what you mentioned here he does quite often in his lyrics actually glad you noticed 😁🥰

[@ndychung007]

You have such a warm heart. Bless you

[@WyldTenshi]

Thank you for your honest reaction to this. This one was definitely an emotional one and I appreciate seeing your reaction to it. Every time I see that interview with RM, Suga and those industry "experts", I get angry. I'd love to see what those so called experts think of where our boys are now. The whole "Bang! Tan! We'll work hard" thing is their team introduction (just like when they go "We're BTS!" in English). Every group has their own unique one. There's actually a really cute story that JK tells in another show about how a senior group once yelled at BTS for being noisy and how their intro was a mess so they took them aside and taught them how to make a better intro to make them look more professional. They would always take what they were taught and incorporate it to make a better impression, better show for ARMY. I love our boys and while I wish I had been there for them from the start, they really do come into your life when you need them most. Can't wait for your next reaction! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@picseditcompilation6555]

I can't wait for the next chapters! YES, I cried too.

[@annaarwen4345]

I feel the same. Its something special to have that quality that draws people to genuinly love you - BTS have that, and amazingly its all 7 members that have something that makes you want to give the world to them. They deserve the love, they worked so hard for it 💜

[@tuppe99]

I so wanted to hug you through the screen, Luke! Just know that we are here, holding your hands, crying and laughing with you. Thank you and Borahae! 💜

[@leeswhimsy]

That interview at 19:45 - will always get me. First, the fact that people were saying this to them when they were at such a young age...Second, the fact that the thing these people thought was the worst insult possible was to call someone a girl...third, to bring them on the show just to ambush them...I know you're probably nowhere near doing this, but when you get to Burn the Stage, Break the Silence, In the Soop, Bon Voyage....let's just say always bring your tissues with you!!!! And yes, RM is a master at word play of all kinds...pay close attention to his lyrics and you'll see. It will blow your mind!!

[@LintuNox]

JusT THANK YOU , for being YOU💜💜💜

[@akiiratsu428]

i really forgot how emotional this video was. I really hope that the rise of bangtan documentary will continue to spread so that one day everyone could know how great BTS are for the next generation. The part abouth the schools expectations in south korea realy broke my heart.

[@darahope]

Omg I can't 🤚...when I see them crying I can't help it and cry too🥲(I cried with u). it's so sad to see how much they struggled in early years, but they always gave their best and put so much effort, dedication and passion in thier music. But u know, all those obstacles made them what they are nowadays. THE BEST GROUP IN THE WORLD 💜

[@blarmy827]

There’s nothing wrong with the tears and their early days really have a lot of emotional moments and the true journey of our boys from the beginning are part of the reason that their commitment to their message, their fight to never give up no matter what they’re faced with….. even coming to the point of talking about disbanding for their mental health….is something we always want to share with new fans and celebrate the journey …. Bc without the struggles… it’s impossible to feel the depth of an armys happiness for them to have gotten through all of it…. Together. It makes anything wrong see with them feel emotional lol and tears are beautiful and loving them def beings out those tears lol you’re a perfect example of army love 💜

[@thaneyberenice1231]

hope that doesn't come across as creepy... but sometimes I just wanna give you a big fat hug and say thank you 💜

So glad that you retained your tears in front of the camera. We feel you, Luke.. And yes, we're not ashamed of calling ourselves the fans of BTS. They have healed and woken up millions of people from the pits and turned their lives around. Which other artists do that??? The fact that they still receive so much of hate from around the world baffles me, when all they've only done their whole career is to spread positivity and humanity, not just through their songs but being excellent examples themselves! 💜💜

[@sandys1890]

I LOVED this reaction ....I think it's BTS willingness to be vulnerable that makes them special.....(like you)💜Sharing their real thoughts and fears is what is so helpful to others.....You should react to their first song to ARMY "2!3! Hoping for more good days live"

[@mini_jkooki_minkookieeeee]

It wasn't easy for them to go from that initial point to the what they accomplished now 😕 they worked really really hard they spent over 18 and even 22 hours of work a day just practicing, pursuing their studies and following their concert schedule....it was so hard for them and they were literally killing their selves by hard work in addition of all the pressure and bullying they got from haters jimin once put him self under a very strict and harsh diet (just one apple a day with all that work and practicing 😢💔)because he got bullied cause of his weight ...junkook also went under a huge pressure...the two of them even got death threats from haters and sasaeng 🥲 You know what worse than the education system in Korea? The kpop industry itself which put all those idols under a huge pressure that reaches sometimes a depressive state making idols ending their own lives like jeonghyun, sulli and Go hara may they rest in peace And it's a huge relief that our beloved bts members succeeded to overcome all those hardships and rest alive to be the superstars and the great inspiration they are now ...they're not just k-idols but they're really warriors brave ones ...that's why we love them this much ...especially my baby jimin he went through alot but he carried on so bravely
