Now you understand the choreography isn't just naughty hip thrusts. They dance like their legs are broken, and their groins are torn, trying to catch up to the storks. And the hip thrusts also double as an f*k you to the system.

[@jess3262]

😳🤯🤯🤯

[@Nixenji]

This comment ⬆️ is exactly why I love the choreography for Baepsae! 👏👏👏👏 Thank you for describing it so perfectly!

[@ruthfischer7615]

They dance like their legs are too short to keep up. Little children have a similar walk even less cordinated.

[@Honey-je4pr]

Also, RM uses the lines sam-po-sedea and oh-po-sedae in his verse in Dope. One of the things I love about BTS' lyrics is that they link lyrics between songs, so it's a continual conversation of their opinions and beliefs. Sometimes those things mature and change with time ("I wish I could love myself" becomes "I love, I love, I love myself!") and sometimes they stay the same (we are baepsae!). I've been an Army since 2015 and Baepsae has only become MORE meaningful and relevant over the years. BTS was ahead of its time and they ARE the Voice of Our Generation.

[@MariaChavez-ey5sr]

Yup! Also Not Today uses a rally to call for the Baepsae to gather together and fight. Love the way they layer the ideas.

[@tonyab.7390]

Joonie, who is a credited writer on this track, is a goddamn genius.

[@MariaChavez-ey5sr]

Remember that this has a lot of keystone concepts that are repeated in other songs. Dope uses the idea so 3/5/7 things you give up and also asks about giving them up. Not Today is a rallying cry for “Baepsae” and people who haven’t gotten the background on this don’t understand why they use that word. It’s such a kickass bad ass social commentary. We love it plus the punctuate the ideas with hip thrusts 😂🤣. You know to make Army pay attention to the message more.

[@MarilynPF]

Remember in the MV “Dope” where RM breaks away from the group and says “given up on 3,” then “given up on 5?” He was talking about this list of things young people have given up on that is referenced here.

[@paulagrave9516]

I love Baepsae so much. The dance practice is so funny. But really there's a kind of sarcastic and rebellious mood through all the song and the choreography. 💜

[@jadedseoul76]

Baepsae is a banger! In my top 10. Everytime Jung Hoseok hip thrusts, a baby is conceived.

[@chilipuff1033]

😂😂😂 true story...

[@cyann410]

I agree. But I can’t narrow it down to a top ten. I have a 25 way tie for #1. And after the new comeback, that may make it a 30 way tie for #1 ! Oh well, who is counting, right ? But this song has always been one of my top favorites.

[@aussiemandy]

Roscoe, I'm loving the "balance" you have settled on for your journey. It seems a perfect way to enjoy the music but also to feed your appetite for knowledge when you feel hungry. Keep it up but if you change your mind ... detour!!!

[@thepenelopejones]

Beautifully said Mandy - *exactly* as this is Roscoe's _adventure_ doing it *his* way - and no matter what, it should be satisfying and enjoyable 🤞 I consider myself one of the fortunate, to be here with you all 🙆‍♀️💜🎶

[@LoveYoonMin]

Their songs got everything: sugar, spice, & everything nice. They're double-edged swords, shiny and sharp. Baepsae is on my cardio warm up playlist.

[@cherylwalker4242]

Keep going Roscoe . I love how brave they are. They stand up for the little guys. The underdogs, underlings and underprivileged. U can't help but love them

[@SnowRivera]

There’s a compilation of all J-Hope’s dance breaks bc he changed it each show 🔥🔥🔥

[@MorganSabido]

Baepsae never gets old!! So glad you got see Hobi's dance break! I think it was perfect that Yoongi got the dance break for the practice video since it fit the more playful vibe so well. Thanks as always for making my day a little brighter Roscoe, borahae!! 💜

[@muddybudgie]

The hip thrusts are absolutely saying what you think it is. 😉

[@silviamunoz6863]

I understood that the first time I saw them dancing it... Sound and clear!! May be because I lived 18 years in Chile (where I was born), 40 in Brazil and almost 5 in Italy so I learned different ways to say so 😃 after that you "feel" the meaning of a gesture...

[@janetwilson9208]

Totally right about the hip thrusts. BTW Hobi does something different everytime for the end dance break.

[@endang2870]

Heya Roscoe! So happy you got to watch Bapsae live, this is really my favorite Bapsae performance from them... I mean Hobi's dance break is just 🔥. Actually this entire concert was really amazing, I don't know what they took that day but they were on fire. If you ever have a lot of time, try watching the entire concert, it's so good!!

[@tammarabg8174]

So many levels to a BTS song. One of the reasons I love them. When the teasers are released for the comeback and for Festa, ARMYs will be analyzing not only every rubber band, but also why was it placed right there, what brand is it, does that brand have any connections to the BU or future concert locations. We know we might be clowns 🤡, but what if...????

[@a.k.a.b-hope1088]

I thrive to watch Hobi's dance breaks in all the Baepsae performances. My favorite is when he does the splits and rise up. It's so cool! It's the highlight to end it all and I just love it!😄💜

[@MTGTC]

This song is something else! And as you say their famous hip thrusts here are not only choreo, they clearly say something else. Hobbi is insane in this video, you should watch it from different angles. Let’s continue this journey, so much is ahead!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@ScarDragon]

RM talks about 3-5-7 in "Dope" about what younger generations have given up on; smart of Koreans to know what they're talking about with just the number reference. Yes, "passion pay" is essentially an unpaid internship in the US where you work to gain experience and it looks good on a resume. It seems like BTS's light-hearted/fun songs have the most political commentary, almost like they're saying it ironically or sarcastically. While they rage against the system/older generation, they don't let millennials/younger generation off lightly either (see Spine Breaker).

[@cindythomas108]

"So much power..." "...about a little bird but not really..." You said it Roscoe...!! These guys really know how to hit hard in a musically/artful subtle way...!! More power to them in all they create for this world in need of their wisdom...!!💜👏💜

[@nynex4]

the hip thrust in the choreo means "swollen crotch" like a tiny bird trying to keep up with a stork. It's a metaphor.

[@serenaharwell754]

This is the reason I love their rap so much, and I haven't been a fan of rap in a long time. It is so much deeper than it initially appears, and the choreography often shows the message that the words convey. As ARMY we are always finding meanings in things that maybe weren't originally intended, but we enjoy it anyways and sometimes we get it right and that makes it worth all the struggles!

[@txskye9019]

Hobi does a different dance break each time with this one

[@Beserious795]

It was that “DAAAAAMMMMNNNN” at the end for me. First of all, didn’t know the story behind the song before now. Second, there’s nothing better than learning something new, feelings of empowerment, and watching with someone else who is also appreciative… so, anyways, thank you. My time is always well spent with Roscoe. ☮️💜

[@maui_53]

The no more dream dance break from that concert was 🤌 *chef's kiss*. You def get Hobi wrecked

[@toadiejones]

Your squeal at the end lol! Yeah, we all feel that with every Baepsae. Also, there’s never enough doting on the guys. Dote away

[@aellerica6380]

I had so much fun watching you bopping to the music. 💜💜💜Baepsae is,and always will be, one of my top favourite BTS songs. It was great seeing you again and going through the analysis and please do what you want to do. Couch crew is with you for the long haul! 😀💜💜💜

[@mdc1746]

I love Bapsae! They performed this song during PTD concert💜

[@jazmin72009]

A mi me gustan mucho tus análisis, también veo cosas en los videos y letras de Bts combinados que otras personas no ven. Lo interesante es que es ARTE y el arte cada uno lo aprecia a su manera, compartirlo me parece de lo más bonito! Gracias!💜

[@heathernile4700]

Don't worry Roscoe, all of us ARMYs have become clowns 💜 The funniest thing is that BTS knows that we ARMYs do this and this comeback they are possibly messing with us with random emogies. They know that we will try to find some symbolic meaning🤣 They love turning us ARMY clowns into a whole darn circus 🎪 💜🤗🇺🇲💜🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@conniegheer576]

Good morning, Captain Roscoe! Oh so many things to ramble on about here...good thing I have my ☕ lol...first off, millenials (sp.) are not the only generation to be berated by a previous generation. I'm 53 and this song is completely relatable to me. One of the many things I love about these 7 young men is that their message reaches across generations. I am inspired, uplifted, saddened, (insert any other emotion here lol), by their songs just as much as my youngest daughter is. As for the hip thrusts...I basically cover my eyes and peak out between my fingers LOL. My mother's generation had Elvis and his hip moves that couldn't be shown on TV...when I was a teen and in my 20's, anything a band did that could be distorted into anything sexual in nature was a big 'no no', so when I watch BTS MV's with an upper thigh grab, a hip thrust or six, or OMG Jimin's Filter choreo from the online concert - I blush so hard my face hurts and I can't help but watch...from between my fingers covering my eyes of course. 🤣🤣

[@laurenmaddox3063]

I love this song. For my degree I had to have two internships and both were unpaid. There are some paid internships. My husband got a great one, but his degree is highly sought after in the work industry right now.

[@gardens_of_grey]

Love your enthusiasm while watching the boys!! 💜

[@malissasalisbury6243]

I think the explanation videos don’t really distract from my interpretation, it’s adds a level. It doesn’t make my interpretation wrong. But it makes me appreciate their lyrical genius even more

[@suzy7645]

Reasons why ARMY loves Baepsae performances: 1%: deep meaningful social commentary, 99%:the hip thrusts!! 😉💜

[@TKO-2460]

I love it when Yoongi called us all out and said ARMY only wanted baepsae because they wanted to see Hobi's hip thrusts...I couldn't argue with him 😆

[@AngelaSealana]

LOL ummm speak for yourself 😹

[@TheAnonymous547]

As soon as I see that outfit of j-hope's I'm like here I go to die again, glady lol 🔥

[@loredell]

Passion Pay exists all across Europe for sure: "internships" are they called (lol not lol). Usually offered to students in their last year at university or other more hands-on studies. In Spain for instance it was very common before I left. They do the same work as any official employee in the end, but receive, with luck, just half the money, if any. I was lucky the companies I worked for used this system + benefits (so in the end they received the normal employee money, yeah... tricks). In Germany, where I work for 11 years now it is super common. I was actually surprised to see 13yo working, they do it as "Praktikum" between levels of Middle-school to high school? (I'm sorry I cannot translate the different education systems well, as in Spain we used to have traditionally primary and secondary education) It is common to see "kids" taking care of kids in Kindergarten (where I got exposed the first time to this), but they do work at car workshops too or at a bakery etc - they earn experience *coughcough* I thought this was also common practice in the US, to hire as "practice"/internships in order to pay less, plus the company earns state benefits as they are helping educate future manpower O_o

[@shweta7796]

Even RMs verse in Dope talks about it. Now you can go back and rediscover 😅

[@kreezteecaluntad992]

I can imagine how you feel Roscoe. You are not the only BTS reactor who is kinda lost in a way. This is just a kinda piece of advice, if you heard the Identical Twins Reactions channel, what they did is somehow created a schedule for a week. This is just an example that might help. ( Monday - music videos, Wed- anything goes videos, like try not to laugh Friday-Run Eps Sat - Rise of Bangtan or Live Perf) .. So you wouldn't have any confusion. If you just want. But I know somehow you will find your own how to manage the BTS rabbit hole. Good Luck and don't stress yourself. At the end of the day, it's still your decision and you can watch how you wanted to watch Bangtan.

[@loredell]

Yes, hip thrust is F U as loud and sexily as they can xD

[@c-dragon4286]

Baepsae is one of my very very favorite BTS songs!! I love the beat, I love the lyrics, I love the choreo!! And you are absolutely correct that the much-loved hip thrusts are definitely an F-you to the older generation!! Nasty in a good way is a perfect descriptor!!! I LOVE BAEPSAE!!!

[@chelm203]

nice!! Learning more and more about BTS with you Roscoe. It is nice to see you again looking for the interpretation They are great, bold, powerful in this song!! The meaning behind Wow!!

[@V_NYC]

Love BAEPSAE So Much! Thank You Roscoe for watching Explained by a Korean by Danny of DKDKTV ~ yaaah… the song and choreography look fun n bouncy n a bit sexy,… but We know what and why our Bangtan created this beauty!! Discussion, thoughts, messages? Dunno if you did it, but definitely review DKDKTV’s Explained by a Korean for IDOL, UGH! and SPINEBREAKER 🙏🏼😉☕️☕️☕️🤟🏼🥐🍊🍿🍪🍱🍓 Edit ~ OMG! and if you didn’t DDAENG Explained (of course)

[@karlafm24]

Hence why Baepsae is my fave song ever. Just plain resonated with millennial me.

[@shopriskybeads]

I love rewatching your older reactions because watching you jam along is so fun. I dance with you all the time lol. 🎉

[@ThisRoscoe]

Love that!

[@kendall7180]

That was fun. You always put a huge smile on my face. Love hanging out on the couch with you. 💜💜💜

[@sandys1890]

Thanks for using DKDKTV for explanations ...They are the best💜ps they made these videos for us so you don't need captions. Their English is flawless

[@amyoconnell3936]

As always, please don't think you have been "wrong." 1: We are talking about art, which is subject to interpretation; 2: There are many artists involved in the production of BTS media, and there are not explanations from every one of those people; 3: Every reactor brings their own background and point of view to a video. I have probably watched as many as 10 reactors watching the same video - classical musicians, jazz musicians, vocalists, hip hop/rap artists, metal-heads, choreographers, dancers, video editors, film-makers, visual artists, writers, therapists, teachers, boomers, gen-Xers, millennials, gen-Zers, children, people with autism, people from countries all over the world (mostly from English-speakers, though) - and yet, even after watching each video so many times, each reactor notices different things that teach me. Even those within the same categories! I can't speak for your other viewers, but I love the deep dives. I like both the quickies (because I get to see them sooner) and the more in depth videos - and I know you have at least some other viewers who feel the same way. I look forward to more! Do what you like. Maybe put in a request: "if you made it through the video this far, post a ___ emoji."

[@Nixenji]

Great reaction! I was looking for a reactor who dives a little deeper, so I'm gonna check out your other reactions. 🙌💜🥰

[@tinaorazem7813]

one of my fav live performances 👍

[@pau121192]

Ooooh i was hopin you'll go rogue on this one 😜 those jhope dance breakss (yes plural) is addicting 😻

[@loredell]

Your journey is yours, we are here to maybe "guide" you, suggesting things like dkdktv explanations or checking this or that, but in the end it's just a choice for you. As always, do you. I love when you go in deconstruct mode though hehe, it always opens up interpretations that maybe weren't there before ^^

[@earthmotherfarfromhome262]

It might be time for the BU now...💜 Everything matters in those videos.💜The photos that replaced the stolen artwork during the Grammy heist were from the BU only. I thought that was interesting and of course, have my own theories about it. 💜

[@AngelaSealana]

Okay so I have never commented this on another explanation reaction, but I think I should now. In the united states, it is technically illegal for an intern to be performing tasks that are essential to the business's operations. I know that is often overlooked and many people do not understand that. But it is the law and I hope if anyone reads this and is pursuing an internship, you make note of these regulations from the United States Labor Dept

[@ScarDragon]

Unfortunately, they do it anyway because they need the experience and don't want to be let go.

[@AngelaSealana]

@@ScarDragon I understand. But I have interned and I also supervise interns. During the application or interview process, candidates have the right to ask about a company's application of labor laws with regard to interns. It's kind of like what's happening with service jobs now... Few people were willing to take low pay and no benefits, so companies who needed personnel were forced to raise their offerings. Internship culture doesn't have to be predatory or abusive, and we can all do our part to make a difference. Bottom line: I hope those who apply will look for ethical employers, and I hope all interns will know the law.

[@jenniferjohnson5064]

Love this song so much! Thanks for the deeper dive.

[@CookHealthyWithMedicoTun]

Wait I didn't think of the hip thrusts that way😳

[@goreyfantod5213]

10:00 Roscoe, I'd like to - gently - correct one thing you said. I don't think that ARMYs are easily bored by analyses of BTS' music & I know for a fact that there's no such thing as, "too deep," either. The BTS Universe wouldn't have been so wildly successful with the fan base if that was the case. The issue comes when reactors dive into analysing BTS lyrics & MVs without knowing or understanding the cultural context that they reside within. Yes, there are some conventions of cinematography, editing, song structure, metaphor, etc., that translate across cultures, but there are also artistic traditions, references & genres that exist well outside Western and/or U.S. conventions. When Western reactors assume that they can not only understand everything on their own, but then go on to explain to their audience from a place of authority, they're doing a disservice to themselves, their audience and to BTS + their creative team.

[@elondahipkins6564]

Yes. To me.. same thing. Interns in US. I do like your system. Quickies. Then a thorough investigation. Roscoe. But, do what you want. We will watch no matter what. Yes. To the emphasis in the message. Phfft! Phfft!

[@silviamunoz6863]

No matter what the unversed, uninformed, and unwashed think, BTS is NOT a boy band: in a way, you might say they are a Movement. Thanks, Roscoe - loved you meeting this whole thang. .... and ... you know there's more, right. I suggest, just for fun, check out Paldongsang / Satoori Rap - a chaotic, lighthearted song about Korean regions and rivalries - and you will NEED DKDKTV's explanation from David! DKDKTV are Danny and David Kim - this one is Danny. David is ARMY, Danny less so, but they do some good work. Some of their items irritate me a bit (sometimes Danny likes to be a bit childishly provocative, and they can sometimes find themselves funnier than they actually are) but some of their explanations are very good at giving the gen to non-Korean ARMY. Their focus is on wider Kpop and entertainment in Korea so I am very selective on what I watch or ignore!
