DISCOVERING BIGBANG 2 - 'FXXK IT' 'HARU HARU' “SOBER”

[@mariar3767]

There was this quote on instagram once " I saw you at your worst and i still think you are the best" . Bigbang never hide things for us, smoking , drinking , party . Never pretended to be perfect . They bring us freedom , they show us we can still make it even if we sometimes fail , make wrong decisions . You fall , you fail but you keep walking and you are loved with your flaws too . You dont have to be perfect to be loved .

[@milindawilson9175]

"Haru Haru" was one of the numerous songs wrote by G-Dragon as part of BigBang's third extended play album, Stand Up, which came out in 2008. (The majority of BigBang's songs are wrote and produced by GD.) So here is how I interpret the story in the "Haru Haru" MV. First off it's not a love triangle like some people first think. T.O.P was doing the girl a favor and they were trying to spare GD the pain of watching his girlfriend die. The girl and GD were in love and the girl got sick and she knew she was dying. She didn't want to put GD through the pain of seeing her get sicker and die, so she figured the easiest why for him to get over her once she was gone was to make him mad at her. So she came up with a plan and asked T.O.P. to "please act like you have feelings for me and that you are stealing me away from GD." Essentially, the girlfriend was thinking that, "If GD is mad at me it will be easier for me to say goodbye and for him to get over me once I am gone." So T.O.P reluctantly plays along. That's why GD is so angry because he thinks his best friend is betraying him; and that's why T.O.P acts so smug to make GD believe the role he is supposed to be playing. In the end, though, everyone realizes that GD needs to know what is happening and he should be there to say goodbye, so Taeyang goes against the girl's wishes and calls GD to tell him the girl is in the hospital and he needs to get there right away. When GD gets to the hospital T.O.P tells him what was really going on and explains that the ring he exchanged with the girl and the "proposal" he witnessed was all an act and the couple ring was really meant for GD. The girl never stopped loving him and they were all doing this to try and protect him from the pain of losing her, etc. The sad thing is GD didn't make it in time and the girl ended up dying on the operating table. What you saw was a flashback of what it was like when GD and the girl were happy in their relationship. When you saw her cry and smile she was sad remembering the happy times in her life, which included GD. It wasn't the future, but it was the past. Or maybe what she wished she could have had if she had lived long enough.

Yes they did. They asked what fans wanted before their last comeback as 5 and one of the most requested was that they would do synchronized dance and so they do it. Even specifically mentioned that they only do it because the VIPs wanted them to 🤣 They also go to multiple a few variety shows the VIPs wanted to see them on and.... mentioned it was because the VIPs wanted them to. Bigbang Scouts were also filmed for the VIPs and there's this promise that they would do one and invite VIPs to have camping and BBQ together. Maybe when the time is right, it will happen one day. Well.... at least Top is keeping his promise with his wine ready to sell soon.

After learning BigBang my amazement from other boy groups are gone. I was laughing at myself. I thought i found the best one until i bumped into bigbang, they made me feel free beyond everything yet connected somehow i can't explain. The intensity, the wisdom and the freedom they possessed with their music is insane, definitely on the next level. 💥💥💥

[@mskatycch]

[@iagreewithyou3478]

This was totally my experience. I was so into cute guys or hot guys doing synchronized dancing back then, until I discovered BIGBANG. Now the only boy group that I like who dances synchronously is Seventeen, just because they're so creative with their formations using their numbers and they're self-producing idols.

[@marya5925]

[@voneychiu2828]

I also thought also why BB's songs went to be so popular and sung in Karaoke and after baseball matches at stadium because the songs relate to 'common' people troubles IRL Like the song Sober, many koreans felt it tho they're not celebrities They also experienced heartbreaks, loneliness, anger and also when in need of mood boosters BB is geeat And GD really makes great melodies to go with every mood

[@thientran3065]

A lot of you-before-knowing-BigBang also like that they always say their fav is the best while don't know the real one is 😎 BigBang is the one who didn't create YG but made it from zero to No1 entertainment company in Korea, everything of Kpop you see know if it's not BigBang's legacy, it's influenced by BigBang also 😂 The most simple way to find the answer is knowing how many celebrities from how many countries went to BigBang's concerts and exactly who attended 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnLMmYt7ntl0rKs 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3fSeHaMZ7WMqLc 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rafUqXaKf7l7i5I

[@lazerx1828]

I'll explain HARU HARU to you as it can be easily misinterpreted. The young girl knew she had cancer and was dying. She thought that in order to spare G-Dragon the pain of losing her, she felt that it would be better if he hated her and forgot about her. She asked his friend to pretend that they were going steady, which he did. Unfortunately G-Dragon was hopelessly in love with her and couldn't get over her. At the end of the second chorus you see her hair coming out in her hands. When she is in the hospital his friend calls him and tells him to hurry over. When he gets there his friend explains and lets him know that she always loved him but wanted to spare him the pain. Unfortunately it's too late.

[@nguyenhatien1787]

That was so sad back then, but now when we look back the music video is so fishy coz T.O.P and GD are fighting and saying the lyrics at the same time :V The cringe and fun they must have had filming this music video

[@JBieberGDragon-cd9qh]

That is the difference of Bigbang to other idol groups and make them unique, because every performance of them, they perform as if it is their last and as if it is their own. Whether it is a festival, music show and even awards show. They always owned the stage that you will thought, it is their own concert. Also, Bigbang is the first self produced group in kpop. So, yeah they wrote their own songs specifically GD is always the main producer of all their songs, even in their solos and TOP (the other rapper) always writes his own verse in every song of them.

[@thientran3065]

Because YG CEO gave him homework when GD was still YG trainee, 2 songs before every night even it's lyrics only, said by GD 😂

[@snens8792]

[@최래지]

It's so interesting to watch you be surprised, skeptical, and confused, and then get to realization. You feel the moment. You're able to understand and convey the facets of the video/song that most reactors don't. You got the meaning of FXXK It in Korean. The word doesn't literally mean the same in the english language. It's like saying I don't care, whatever or queue sera sera. Regarding Seungri... let's just say, whatever you heard all over the internet or the media are mostly half-truths. He's not the bad guy or that evil person that people have been painting for years. I'm not saying he's an angel but the accusations against him, I wouldn't consider a major case. Mind you, I am not a conservative Korean, so I don't act like the negative collective thinking or narrow-mindedness that happens in our society. The real bad people were those people who took advantage of him. Even the members of BIGBANG were concerned over that for years. But Seungri tends to look at the best side of everyone he works with. That's who he is. That's how he was taught. In that 2019 fiasco, he became the biggest collateral damage. Our collective society is great, but it can also be a problem. Korean media tend to take advantage of that.

[@JaeMinJung.]

BIGBANG did use to dance in their rookie days but as soon as year 5 of their career came they just said screw the synchronized dance we'll just enjoy the stage, bring the party, and involve our fans in our performance. I mean you would still get a choreo from them in their later years, like all 3 songs you've reacted to have a choreo, but it's a very minimal choreo and they are not synchronized dances they just wing it and let the energy and swag flow through. They may be the KINGS of KPOP but they sure are terrible at synchronizing dances, BIGBANG as a group is not known for dancing despite GD, Taeyang, and Seungri being amazing dancers themselves.

[@mirantilin]

Haru Haru live version is so different and you will definitely love it. They made the arrangement different every tour and they only sing the acoustic version now.

[@TurKishBacon]

Oh goodness. Haru Haru. The story is that she knew she was dying so she broke up with GD to hope he'd move on without having to watch her pass. She asked his friend TOP to help her cement the breakup and he (and the other guys) helped her. They have a change of heart and think he should be with her when she goes, so they tell him but he doesn't make it in time to say goodbye. Keep in mind this was 2007 and the group wasn't a success at the time. Peak 2007 drama that put BIGBANG on the map. This was the song and it established GD as a songwriter and producer to be reckoned with. BIGBANG live was and still is unmatched especially in Kpop. The freedom and energy on stage is still one of a kind. It's why after a while, they became the closers. No one wanted to come on after them because no one could match their energy (this festival they were the headliners though). They tried group choreo sometimes but it never sticks live and frankly, the members never care to bother with it (especially TOP 😂 my ult of ults). They let other groups worry about choreo and being synchronised but they weren't and never would be and no one cared. The coolest thing about BB is the fact that they were never cornered into a particular genre or style. They did what they wanted and showed what they wanted and said what they wanted and either you went with it or not. It can't be overstated how influential they were on EVERYTHING we see now but especially tandem rappers. Every group wanted a GD & TOP. GD & TOP's wordplay is also still so unique (no one bends prononciation like Kwon Jiyong). Fashion? Forget it. Even today Jiyong is the standard and what he wears instantly become trend. Solos are great so you should definitely check them out. I will say though that some (like GD's Coup D'état) have so much symbolism and personal touches that it would benefit from watch explanations after.

I am so happy that you are exploring the amazing enigma that is BIGBANG. I think their music and their sound is truly an iconic force that has shaped KPOP of today. I think if you wish to, i continue I believe going through more of their deep yet electric discography as a group then going into the solos would be great. Because you get to experience the full breadth of their sound as a group and then get to experience the nuances of the individuality which can be quite different but interesting to see and hear. Additionally, they are considered some of the best live performers in KPOP, so you got a taste of their live performances but there are so many more to see to truly understand that moniker of "KINGS OF KPOP".

Yay more Bigbang!! Ah, the one who left Bigbang. His name is Seungri. He was an essential part of Bigbang. It will be very different without him (if they even make an actual comeback as Bigbang without Seungri, I have my doubts). I'm still heartbroken about what happened to him. I wish he would come back but it's not likely at least for a long time. And knowing what koreans, knetz and some kpop fans are like... not likely. It's a long and complicated story of what happened and why he left but to summarise it was a super messy and a very public witch hunt. And anti-Seungri people, please read all the way through before hating on me in the comments. I'll just give a very general story of how it went here: It started in early 2019 with the burning sun club issues (sexual harrasment in the club, money laundring etc.) and grew up to be the worst scandal ever. He got blamed for doing ugly things that weren't true (and yes it has been proven he wasn't part of Jung Joon Young's chat case (secretly photographing girls and rape) at all and all the guilty people were sent to prison already) and some reporters even made things up to get bigger and bigger headlines and were later sentenced to prison for that. It got very dark and ugly. There were public appeals made for him to commit suicide... that is not ok. He was the most loved maknae one day and the next everybody hated his guts. They started a full on investigation about everyhting about his life, work and businesses (he owned or co-owned clubs, restaurants etc) to find ANY sign or proof of his wrongdoings. They even forced him and all of Bigbang members to take drug tests, all were negative (south korea has VERY strict drug laws).They tried to dig up evidence against him for gambling (illegal for Korean citizens), arranging escort ladies for business partners in Japan and embezzlement for 3 years and got nothing. Now he got 1,5 years in prison because he admitted to the charges (god knows why, he's been adamant for the past 3 years and now suddenly he admitted guilty??). In my opinion they wanted to make a point in giving him some sentence atleast after all this time and made some kind of a deal with him. Someone told me that SK has a conviction rate of 99% which is absurdly high and the chance of you proving your innocence in court is extremely low, they only care about the numbers in general not if the right person is locked up. I bet he's very tired and exhausted after all this time and admitting and getting it over with was the best option for him. The media has never cleared his name in the older charges about him so most kpop fans and koreans still think it's all him (they used his name at the start of the scandal: Seungri's club burning sun (he owned about 5% of the club and DJ'd there sometimes), Seungri's chat etc.) because it's Seungri, he was part of the most loved group and a very popular member and a megastar. The shock value was big. They got way more readers that way so the scandal was tied to him closely even though it never was him. All the while the issues some of us are certain they wanted to cover with Seungri's case are totally forgotten. The SOPA scandal and the burning sun related money laundring cases spanning across South Korea that included some very important people in SK. I still get so mad just thinking about this whole issue and how Seungri's life and career are ruined forever. Some people are starting to belittle Seungri's effect on Kpop while he was in Bigbang because of this. If you are guilty you have to pay for your crimes but the witch hunt that happened was way over the proportion of his crimes, which are at the level of gambling... Sorry for the long rant. I'm just mad and heartbroken about this still and the amount of wrong info going around is still huge.

[@LindsL08]

An essay to defend a criminal, as a woman I feel sorry that women like you exist tbh. Imagine all the women he hurt and here you are defending him because you can't get over the image he sold you. You should be mad and heartbroken for all the women he abused, instead you're heartbroken over him getting caught. Women like you are truly.. sad .You'd give away women's rights over a man any day. Truly sad and pathetic.

[@marxunderhill6737]

She's not gonna read that, and it seems like she has already been fed wrong information.. listen to her conclusion "Knowing what happened with him this lyrics did not aged well". The lyrics were written by GD and most likely are about himself or the "celebrity", and how not to lose yourself in "fame". Only people who think "Seungri did this" will see those lyrics and think they're related to him or that it doesn't look well when "We know what happened with him". P.S: Because I stopped after she made that comment and started looking at the comment section to see if someone talked about it it took me a copule more minutes to end the video. Just take a hint at how she watched the 3 videos: GD, TOP, Taeyang & Daesung she stopped went back, talked about them, about their voices, etc. Seungri? Nope, just skipped him.. and that's fine if she doesn't wanna talk about him, but then she makes a comment so..

[@deedeeschway9566]

The biggest missing factors that people forget about his case is that SK has a 99% conviction rate (which statistically does not constitute a real fair trial system), public opinion has a strong factor in the justice system especially against famous people, and corruption/bias are also very prevalent in their police investigations. Also their plea bargain numbers are very high and their ability to appeal sentences even if they has pled guilty originally is crazy. How sad is that men who pled guilty to gang r*pe with tons of evidence are getting out before him, he who fought 9 relatively random charges for 2-3 years and none of those charges were even related those disgusting monsters. Most people can’t even ID the 2 idols which actually admitted to crimes against women and there was actual proof against them. Yet people swear he knew what they did but don’t accuse those idols’ own friends, family, or band mates of knowing. They even succeeded in their appeals because they admitted their guilt and are “really apologetic”. Yeah, im sure you feel bad but it’s bc you’ve been exposed as the disgusting piece of sewer scum you are. 😒 The only reason I can see why he pled guilty for the appeal is to simply be with his family in 2023 instead of 2025 or 2026. He can’t win when the system decides it’s all or nothing guilty.

Yetti that rap part you was talking is Jennie did homage reference with that f*xx it song with whistle 😀 it's kind of YG family trend to give reference to their senior BP DID TO BIGBANG 3 TIMES, TREASURE DID TO BP,SOMI DID TO JENNIE,2NE1 DID TO BIGBANG,IKON DID TO WINNER,MINO DID TO BP IN DIFFERENT SONGS

[@Yetti.]

What was treasures homage?

[@withinsec..]

Yoshi said wassup in JIKJIN rap where lisa said in how you like that 😀also other one I forgot ❤️Yoshi also clarified that he wanted to homage lisa subaenim

[@jebalifyouplz]

@@Yetti. treasure actually did an homage to BigBang, iKon, winner, 2ne1, bp, and even solo artists and yg family (a collaboration album/group). Jikjin is like a big yg family tribute.

[@hanulhope]

Do they do synchronized dancing as all normal kpop group do? Me: yes! During their jurassic period and their dancing king---- T.O.P!

[@miaomiao1167]

Do all the bigbang songs!!!! ALLL live performances n stages n concerts lol , we will watch everything

[@Lau11MG]

Big Bang live performances are just iconic, they're so authentic and they have so much fun they make me want to jump with them. there is a presentation of YG FAMILY that is very funny to see please react to it and more of 2EN1 please!

[@allison853]

It’s BIGBANG...fashion is expected top tier in every BIGBANG performances/MVs. There’s a lot of word-play in BIGBANG songs... here they were saying ERA MOREUGETDA which basically means “fck it I don’t give a damn” also rhymes with the English lyrics AND I WANNA GET DOWN and they use that interchangeably - “era moreugetda I love you all” then “and I wanna get down I love u all” then “girl I wanna get down”.... That guy is Seungri and fck haters and those who exaggerate things I hope they get karma 10 folds... 🙄 And no, that is not a multi idol show, that is BIGBANG’s concert... those are VIPs with their fan merchs... VIP Japan have slightly different light stick.

[@30goals]

aw you picked a rather random live of sober which is a shame because the main lives of it are SO good, but I love your reactions

[@30goals]

YAAAAYYY havent watched yet but EXCITED

[@aroobalt]

Oh i actually admired you but it seems like you’re going with the flow without caring about any facts. I don’t blame you because that’s what everyone does anyway and you’re no different. But the least you do is not comment about it if you don’t know about it, no?

[@nxcstudio2625]

the similarity in rap phrases you are talking about is Jennies rap is Whistle!!!!

[@elmieirfaan5983]

True VIP see them always as 5 members group... Love them... Their music is so good...

[@emana6824]

YES

[@anonimd5792]

you know, if a singer who sings live better than mv is a good singer, and bigbang is one of them,for real!

[@cassio2341]

I can't wait to see your reaction to the Bae Bae video 🤣🤣🤣. I am enjoying these, I hope you do more BigBang!

[@xoxlove6101]

The song you are talking about is whistle or playing with fire (can't remember), it's another one of the instances where you see that teddy is a great producer but a really average and boring lyricist, they literally copied jiyong rap for her (fxxk it was written in 2015)

[@nixie9568]

Many YG groups with other producers have been copying BB/GDs lines until now, not only Teddy. For example Jikjin by Treasure is totally bang bang bang even with the jumping at the end of the song. If Teddy is 'average' then almost all kpop songs are under average lol

[@xoxlove6101]

@@nixie9568 as a lyricist- teddy is average, and that is being nice. Look at blackpink's and 2ne1's songs lyrics- boring, repetitive, the subjects are way to overused as song topics, and they truly give 0 personality. Then think what makes bigbang's songs different- it's jiyong who will always be the first credited for the lyrics, which means he was the one who was the main lyricist

[@njkhl5192]

Solos: GD- Middle fingers up, Crooked, Untitled, Bullshit Top- Act as if nothing wrong

[@xxxxxx-pl4tq]

GD and TOP has one of the clear and smooth rap flow in all kpop industry

[@voneychiu2828]

And what distinctive opposite voices they have That contrasting formula being used in most of newer groups after BB The 'fighting' raps in haru haru sold that brand

[@saymyname9335]

Thank you for 2nd reaction of Bigbang.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@jasonhall8887]

16:50 if Big Bang is preforming live it becomes a Big Bang concert

[@anacarolinavieira5577]

in fxxk it, the rap of gdragon inspired jennie in whistle. this is kinda normal dr yg artists, they use a lot of references of older raps to new songs. like the rapper of treasure did this on jikjin, he use the same base of the rap that lisa did in how you like that. they do this a lot, it's yg normal

[@nickjjbfan1]

Whistle came out before fxxk it

[@KrysLeHobbit]

@@nickjjbfan1 1. it came out the same year as a single yeah , but the release of MADE started in 2015 , so before the girls debut 2. Also , GD was litterally Jennie's mentor , so it's not a stretch to think that she was inspired by him , not the other way around

[@nickjjbfan1]

@@KrysLeHobbit 🙄 Whistle still came out before FXXK it & Jennie didn’t write Whistle Teddy, B.I, & Future Bounce did. It wouldn’t make sense that they would release a song with a line from GD before GD even released the song with that line, that’s disrespectful as fuck 😂 🫣 have some sense

[@wannarollwiththewind]

Yaaaay a new BIGBANG reaction!! I have been watching your first one on repeat since it was sooo good!! Glad I have a new one to repeat-watch! 🫶

[@mjjloverdg]

"Loser" should be next.. the video and the song has a very powerful message

[@delissaraiha9633]

Yes..they produce and write their songs. That's why it is so compliment with their voices.

[@todaesmile7475]

The thing that make Bigbang special is they write and produce their own song from day one. G-dragon, the leader (the fashion guy) is the main person in writting & producing all Bigbang song but other members also help especially Top, (the rapper with deep voice) he always write his rap lines. Thus their songs is very genuine, relatable, unique & authentic. I think Bigbang is the only kpol idols that dont do synchronize dancing in both mv & live. They mainly focus on music, stage presence and enjoying the performance. Please discover their solo works too. All of them are very good.

[@mentalbreakdown1106]

please check another Sober perfomance, bacouse Daesong playing drums !!!

[@rezadzakimadani2583]

KING OF THE KINGS🤘🤘🤘

[@kimbapbekidding1522]

The whole point of haru haru is she had cancer, you actually see her hair falling out just before you see her in the hospital. You paused on it but didn’t notice 😂. So GD and her are in love but she didn’t want to put him through the heartbreak of losing her so she ended it and asked TOP to be her fake bf. I’m guessing she thought it’d hurt him less if she was already out of his life, but obviously they both loved each other so it was definitely worse in the end. Since he lost her twice essentially. By no means was it TOP’s fault though 😂.

[@sherphy]

I recommend some of older Bigbang songs that are not so known but should be heard like -Lady -Love song -Stay with me -Oh my friend

[@amorfatikhb]

15:44 revenge for being at the bottom in the fxxk it mv lol

[@erin213]

1:35 LOL..Actually the song title is quite miss interpreted. Fxxt it/Era moreugetda = Okay, whatever, we don't give a damn!!! So your interpretation of the music video as laid back or relax is right..hahaha

[@Coredance1]

How about reacting to more bigbang group songs and then move to their solos..

For daesung's solo, please react to wings and anymore live... U will regret not watchng this😁

[@eirindoeskpop]

oh god i miss them, especially seeing the Sober performance. It's making me depressed thinking I'll never see that live with all members.

[@dazedflowers]

You should definitely react to some of the members solo endeavors, I think they’re an important part of how bigbang was established as each of the members are very individual and have their own unique impact, I’d especially recommend reacting to g-dragon and taeyangs solo music, they have some of my favorite songs

[@toptabibigbang5002]

Crown lightstick VIP from BIGBANG is the 1st kpop lightstick....and (VIP) is the first fandom name for idol...(thanks to G dragon,the person who have the idea for the 1st fandom name and 1st lightstick in the whole K-Pop).. Bigbang is the 1st idol K-Pop who created lightstick...and after then all boy/girl group following BIGBANG.... Yesss .BIGBANG is the beginning eventough BIGBANG from 2nd gen. ...

[@jessquilantang4912]

“I need to be the guy on top” when that guy’s name is TOP hahahaha

GD is JENNIE mentor that why her rapp good like GD.... GD is KING of kpop...he created alot in kpop history

[@fannyarif8356]

This is the first korean boybands mv which have a story line

[@rainbowcolors9632]

"The guy with the white hair wants to be on the top"...he actually is uri top..😄

[@freshie_n7366]

In Haru Haru, It was A LIE! She faked her relationship with TOP so GD can move on faster or easier!

[@widyastutiparamita2039]

More live performance please

[@Em-ah]

Suggestions: live is best I think. They have so much energy. "if you" from tour report Bangkok. "Candle/fool only tears" from love and hope tour 2011. "Cafe, let's not fall in love; fantastic baby, loser (you found haru haru emotional - this is sad.) From MADE tour 2015 in Seoul. "Gara gara go; Top of the world; No1; lies; tell me goodbye" from Japan dome tour 14/15.

[@angiemar88]

Please react to if you 🥺 Also café, a fool of tears (love and hope tour), lies (on the sketchbook show), tell me goodbye (dome tour x), an acoustic version of Haru Haru and my all time favorite Bigbang song, blue (MADE in Seoul 2015) 💙 🙏

[@marcella_stefano]

please, GD's solo works..with lyrics..

[@algfrafid]

you should listen to "Untitled, 2014" by GD

[@JelsLove]

He was wrongly accused, he was the most kind,friendly and generous idol I've even known, there were no evidence that he did those things, only his say and her say, 😔😔😔

[@xaiderige]

the BLACKPINK song you were talking about is 'Whistle'!!!

[@grumpydmama]

Haru haru MV makes me cry and the live accoustic version gives me goosebumps.❤️❤️❤️

[@Erizedd]

You looked down & didn't notice the scene in 'Haru Haru' where the girl's hair is falling out (and then missed it again when you rewound). That's why you were so surprised to see her in the hospital bed. The story was that TOP was the mutual friend of the girl who pretended to be her new boyfriend to drive G-Dragon away, because she didn't want him to worry about her and suffer as she was dying of cancer (which he didn't know about), and she knew she couldn't keep him away any other way. In the end they decided to reveal to him to at least give him a chance to see her one last time.

[@widyastutiparamita2039]

i wish you make more bigbang reaction in the future, you can watch : if you by bigbang, untitle 2014 by gdragon bigbang, anymore by daesung, doom dada by top bigbang, 1,2,3 by seungri bigbang, eyes nose lips by teayang

[@vip5hawol-deehirota]

havent watched haru haru mv in a good while so it actually hit me ): literal tears good job on the vips in the comments who explained the storyline

[@mikiSS91]

15:46 he wants to on the top coz he's mr T.O.P that's why 😂😂😂

[@leiyavns]

I think black & white is nothing to do with the whole song. This is just the fact that haru haru came out 14 years ago so the camera is not that good like now. Btw Haru Haru is our anthem

[@dqlHuiShi]

When u said it didn't aged well, I think you didn't check all the facts of his case then. He's pretty much a victim in this case. Wouldn't say he's entirely innocent since he did admitted in violating casual gambling n food sanitation act but other than that, he has no victims at all. All the witnesses said he's not involved but yet the Korean justice system is kinda fucked up. He's there because he's famous and they needed him to cover other controversial cases happening at that time. N he's not the only one going through the injustice. There are many artists committed suicide because of the power of some superior ppl in Korea. U can check out jang jayeon case which happened more than 10yrs ago but then idk what can u find since the Korean police n media had to cover it up

[@itsjustme1088]

Hey sweetie, great reaction as always. I just wanted to say that i´d love to see you react to some PENTAGON if you could, they have an insane vocal ability but they are so underrated. Thank you

[@van_xxv6287]

you should react to their song LAST DANCE,IF YOU and their 2016 MAMA PERFORMANCE ...thank you for reacting to them.

[@phoebejanemawali8801]

They wrote all their songs esp Gd and evsn produced it.. Bigbang are lyric genius.. They created songs that is unique.. They rock also every music genre.. That is why i loved them.. VIP💛
