DKDKTV is not a bts channel but yes it's more than half a bts content channel and feelings get stronger from past few months and I am more disappointed bcs I kinda feel like u guys are ignoring sm artist videos and as u talked about ur explained series then I was very disappointed when u skipped many good videos like BAEKHYUN×LOCO - Young NCT - Simon says , We go up (Yestoday mv too but it was released in March and that time series was not started but if thinking to do past videos then plz include this too) And I thought that u would talk about NCT regular irregular album concept and talk about their title track regular song lyrics with different versions also but it's not that much. I hope more content could be seen from u guys Ur channel is still best kpop channel.👌👌

[@phurbadorji93]

I dont know why, I did not binge watch ur videos once u started k-pop thing..but prior to that I did watch almost everything outside of k-pop..

[@softkoo6172]

bts made nearly over 70 songs within the last year or so,, y'all covered like 7 for ur 'explained'. bts was EVERYWHERE and constantly had this concert and that speech and another award performance and a fan event here and there,,, y'all didnt cover all that either. and that's PERFECTLY FINE! armys appreciate the work u do NOW and when u do it. what im getting at is yall cant be getting mad at "sooo much" bts videos coming out when.... bts are CONSTANTLY releasing new content n doing stuff. it's a kpop/korean vlog channel so they wanna keep on top of stuff n bts is a LARGE chunk of that stuff. some of y'all really unreasonable. just drop ur "please react to x" comment and let the guys run their channel as they see fit.. tell them WHY a song or group should be featured in one of their series like "explained" w/o mentioning bts and surely they'll give it a try. y'all need to learn patience n manners ffs

[@finalfantasyfreako]

That is another really good point. BTS puts out TONS of content. So of course DKDKTV will have more BTS related videos. That said, this channel is still really selective on what videos they make on them. If they weren't they'd literally be making BTS videos nearly every damn day. The guys put a lot of thought into their content and don't just throw out fluff for the clicks. Other subscribers need to show some respect.

[@softkoo6172]

@@finalfantasyfreako thank you for answering respectively as well! yes if it was a BTS channel they;d be making videos about BTS multiple times a day. just look at other channels or even twitters dedicated to keeping up w JUST bts (like btschartdata). it's overwhelming amounts of content coming at ya from bts various achievements and events. i ult AOA, but i wont get mad over lack of AOA videos on this channel cause AOA doesnt have that much content or info coming in to be making videos for! ppl just need to simmer down.

It's Not DKDKTV fault that BTS songs are deep, meaningful & need more interpretation. Most of other Kpop songs are straight forward & the meaning is not that unique or special. Sometimes even meaningless! So what they should interpret/explain, if there are nothing to talk :( BTS have so many content to talk, from songs, they write their own songs, they are amazing musician & artist, from the performance, they put alot of art to their performance. there are burn the stage, movies, webtoon, their MV has hidden meaning, even storyline, HYYH theNotes1 book, it's not DKDKTV fault. Don't blame DKDKTV. Blame the companies for not having creativity & brilliant minds like Big Hit, for prioritize money over quality And many people watch BTS content anyway. Whether they like it or not, KZbinr will make BTS content.

For me, DKDKTV is a platform for international fans like me to understand more about Kpop music (which that Kpop is not just the music it is more than that;the content, the literature, idioms, korean culture) a way that DKDKTV makes the language barrier becomes lesser. It is just because BTS's songs are intriguing to discuss about and they are popular so yar, people talk about them (either they really know about them or not) Please continue your channel, especially the "Korean Explained" series. Its a savior to international K-pop fan. Everyone, lets take a moment and give an applause to DKDKTV (clap clap)

K-pop community let's be sincere, I'm sure at 100% that if they were another group noboby would have said something. The problem is not "They talk to much about one group" the real problem for you is "They talk about BTS" am I right? Amoung k-popers is a trend to hate BTS, some friends told me that in some k-pop pages/group chats if you talk about BTS you get insulted and kicked out and should we talk about the amount of dislikes on BTS mvs? BTS now is a hot topic so made peace with it and focus on your faves instead of spread hate and complain because people talk about Bangtan. If you want to hate someone hate us, not the group, who worked and work hard everyday.

[@laveu3364]

Exactly, they "only hate the fans" but call them BTShit and their company BigShit, attack the group itself for their vocals or come at them with 473838 plagiarism claims, constantly discredit BTS' HUGE achievements like denying their global impact or calling their daesang's charity and trying to create a petition to the Blue House about it on numerous occasions, encouraging Japanese Nazis and extreme right wingers (REAL DANGEROUS PEOPLE) to try and destroy BTS' career because of JM's Korean Independence shirt, trash talking their new 'brother group' before they even debut and even hate on one of the kids in it for his REAL NAME since it's the same as a STAGE NAME of one of their faves, etc. etc. etc. Really another level of obsessed and another level of hatred. They hate anything and anyone with remote association with BTS which is just sad and ridiculous.

The fact that content creators get attacked for talking about one of the world's biggest acts and some of Korea's most revolutionary artists till this day, is pathetic.

[@dominique.27]

Well ain't that the hottest tea i saw today.. Like truly, how would you expect DKDKTV to do an explain video for lyrics that doesn't need to explained? Maybe ask your groups first to make their lyrics and concepts into something that has some deep connotations and meanings inside of it. Or that touches social issues or have some cultural relevance. Honestly.. ARMY is like the biggest fandom in the world right now and BTS are just making news and dropping contents here and there. Combine the artist contents and the fandom hype, ofcourse you're gonna hear about BTS and ARMY more often. I'm so done with all of you whining and saying BTS this, ARMY that.

It's the INTEGRITY of this channel. The wiseness and intelligence of a duck and a rabbit combined with the unbiased and professional way they present their views on their videos. I hope you guys will remain steadfast. Do what you want with your videos. React on the things you want to react to.Discuss what you think is important and relevant. Don't be swayed with the narrowmindedness and jealousies of other people. I hope the channel will exist in the way you want it to exist. DKDKTV is a BTS channel?? Myyyy.. ARMYs will be ecstactic! Sadly, they're more intelligent to know tis not really true... and as an ARMY myself I'm already grateful for the time you took to explain BTS songs/ lyrics (which are not superficial).

Honestly I don't think you're even near being a bts channel, bts as a percentage of your channel's content as a whole is not even 10%, tho as a percentage of your kpop content, they're like 50% which is understandable tbh because 1)David is an army and it's his channel and he can upload whatever he loves 2)they are 7 out of 20 videos from your explain series because their lyrics are actually worth explaining. I honestly was even expecting you to explain outro: tear by bts but you didn't 3)you're kpop content is pretty diverse, and it's literally the most high quality out there, you don't half ass reactions or explanations, like even reactors choose to react to your explain series because it's that interesting. Talking a lil bit more about bts is not something bad and it definitely doesn't make you clout chasers or youtubers that are thirsty for attention, Im not saying that bts are the only high quality group out there that you could use for high quality content, there are alot more, tho honestly you're doing a great job at trying to cover everyone, don't force yourselves to talk about other groups when there's nothing to be talked about with them, if you do, you're videos would look silly and forced, it would seem like your trying to gain subscribers from every fandom, and that would look thirsty tbh. And don't hold back on bts content, because then, that would look biased. Do whatever you think is good for the channel. I'm looking forward to more content from you kpop or not and including bts or not. Ducks should like you for the quality of your videos despite who you talk about.

About explaining older songs, I support that! They are also relevant! No matter how old they are, SPECIALLY because there are so many new Kpop fans so it doesn't matter if it's an old song, at the end of the day it is a new song for thousands of people!

I agree, and many of the new music builds off the older music as well. And a lot of times groups in the same companies do a throw back to those songs.

[@VieLui]

I find that a little disrespectful and offensive. Yes we know that BTS is one of a kind when it comes to write, produce, compose and almost everything. But just because some groups don't write their music or they not allowed/prohibited or have superficial or common lyrics doesn't mean they not good. By the way I'm multifan.

[@curvytangerine]

@@VieLui I'm a huge BTS fan and agree that tons of these types of comments are really stupid and disrespectful, and if they aren't coming from teenagers then they're coming from EXTREMELY immature adults. Having complex lyrics and/or music videos is not a requirement for being a highly entertaining artist and a talented musician. However my assumption is the rudeness is coming from a place of frustration based on the fact that fans of other groups have been short-sighted regarding the reason DKDK have chosen certain songs for the Explained series, and I *also* agree that many people are consistently aggressive toward BTS content without stopping to consider its relevancy or be at all open-minded toward the group's quality. It's just an overall crap situation.

Marie Vieyra exactly. Not every song has to be ‘deep’ per say to be a great song. Its also about the melody, production, vocals etc. Tempo has great production/arrangement/vocal stuff to talk about.

Lets take a step back from trying to equalize all kpop groups on the basis that they have worked hard. DKDKTV make videos on achievements (and controversy) of the hallyu wave. Who has the most global achievements (and controversy)? BTS They make a koreans react to kpop video. What group would offer the most content by being known in korea the most? BTS DKDKTV make videos explaining profound lyrical, symbolic content through the social views of a korean. BTS' lyrics have the most to pick apart, their videos have the most symbolic content and require the most social context. Y'all need to get your head out of your ass and understand that bts is the group that fits their content the most. In reacting that way youre literally forcing them to not shine light on major topics and a group that not only they, but alot of their audience likes.

I'm a casual checker of your channel and one thing I loved the most was the 'Explained MVs/Songs' series.

This is a really quality content. In short, you guys provide good content for armys and they, in return, they show up with interactions. So, it's pretty understandable that the majority of your content is BTS related (Not to forget BTS's content is PLENTY!). Thank you for working hard and I wish you the best!

I think you're doing great guys, just keep it up!👍🏼

[@elnovo2951]

I love your explained series and I'm really happy that you have specific criteria. If fans are upset that there is no 'Explained' for their artist, there is a good reason for it - because their song/mv/message is simple enough to not need an explanation! The variety on your channel is fantastic and I really appreciate learning more about Korean culture through you. Admittedly I haven't watched all of your videos (I'll watch the bike one, I promise!!), but I will absolutely make an effort to share them more. Anything related to food is also great too because Korean cuisine is very complex and it would be great to know more about different dishes than fried chicken, bbq, and bibimbap. Keep up the great work!!

[@jennyflrs6143]

Honestly I'm going to feel kinda bad saying this but I'll be honest. I'm an army so I mainly watch bts videos on this channel. I never dislike any of the other videos or leave a comment complaining, I just really enjoy your bts videos. But I do enjoy your explaining vids and when you teach us more about korean culture. I see the work you put in your channel and I really appreciate it!

[@missanguilla1]

Bruh lol, the subtle shade. Anywho, Love your explained series. Gives me deeper insight into BTS's complex lyrics. It helps me understand not only the lyrics but the hard work they put into writing them. I hope you do more explained series on BTS songs in the future. Keep up the amazing work you guys do. ARMY appreciates it. : ) You guys are GEMS.

[@WasuWasuSu]

Never thought you were. Just found you cause of them. It’s your channel, your content, your control.

[@lizasaguin]

true!!!!!

[@RebekahMayer]

I love your channel! The explained series got me here, and the SCV videos kept me coming back. Still going through the back catalog but I’m enjoying the diverse content you’ve been producing. Keep up doing what you like!! 👍🏼

[@민-t9t]

5:12 When you want to explain about the song but the lyrics keep repeating the same words all the time..The end...... 😂🙆💜

[@delvianapark4642]

Please danny and david keep making content which you want to do, especially the explained song, i really enjoy that content! Bcs honestly, i can't understand well of bts song bcs they usually use metaphor, cultural things, so when u described it all, i could understand well 😭 ty so much💜

[@vw2770]

You have quality contents. And you talked about things that matter. People are going to select what they want to watch based on their taste. You keep doing what you are good at and you will succeed! Learned a lot about Korean culture through your videos so thank you!

[@maiszhen]

aaah poops at it again. I love your vids, Danny, David. Esp Seoul City Vibes. Even your quirky videos like the makeover one were really fun to watch. I hope you wont think twice about doing a BTS video going forward though. We reaaaaally need your explained series for a lot of their songs. A track like say, Ma City, i had to ask a Korean acquaintance the significance of some of the lyrics to understand it better. Other than BTS, B.A.P has some fantastic lyrics.

[@delisandwitch8411]

I looooooove your channel! I've been around since your first reaction videos. What about talking about older songs too? Like for example, H.O.T has some songs that are really worth explaining and at the same time you're introducing another generation of kpop. Older songs from other kpop solos and groups could help, instead of just focusing on the new releases. That way you dont have to be stressed on what new explains to do.

[@tb9441]

I wanted to suggest some Bigbang song explanations...I found myself stuck trying to explain the word play and metaphors in some BB songs (like Bae Bae/Zutter/Doomdada) where the MVs are so crazy and sometimes distract people from the genius behind the lyrics. I think it would be a great series leading back to 4/5 of them returning from the military! I would also like some B.A.P explanations, that group has some amazing messages as well!

[@whitneystne2706]

And are you sure people gonna watch these videos though? This is the question y’all should be asking yourselves. Like they showed, they are non bts videos they made which don’t get views. They put videos on here which they know their subscribers will Like

[@tb9441]

@@whitneystne2706 perhaps they will gain more subscribers and a wider audience that enjoy that kind of content I for one will subscribe if I can get some of that content Ofc anyone will know, in the kpop reaction world, bts videos = views, but also is that the only thing THEY want to put out? There's always that dilemma when making kpop content

[@kaylag.5807]

A couple months back, I subscribed to your channel because you took the big and wonderful world of K-pop and made it understandable for an English-speaking international fan. I'll admit it, I originally subscribed for your BTS explained videos because let's be real, those songs are not the easiest to understand. But I stayed because your reactions, your opinions, your explanations, and your videos felt so genuine and honest, and you weren't afraid to say what you felt like what was needed to be said. Because of your videos, I want to visit Korea even more now and maybe even meet you both someday. So keep doing what you're doing!!! I'll still be here whatever you do!

[@MingukFilms]

Ouch, that is gonna hurt Because recently I left a comment saying you should post more about BTS because most of your subscribers are probably BTS fans so I already feel like this is going to be a huge punch in my face like: WE ARE NOT A BTS CHANNEL. Anyways :( Be proud of being part of the Army. Don't let people get into your head. BTS is not just another Kpop group. They're on a different level!

[@ishwarisardar]

Me too 💜

[@moonamigi]

They are proud of liking BTS, their entire channel doesn't have to revolve around it though...

They never said that they aren't proud of being army they are just sad that they get comments judging they "only make bts videos" when they do have a lot of other videos but they don't get many views

[@MingukFilms]

@@pigunniebinnie I know, sweetie, I commented that way before the video was released :) I literally had no idea of what they were actually going to say.

[@sheiladuong3317]

i absolutely adore your explained series! you both explain the songs so well and really helped me (a foreigner) understand the songs much better. please make more! (especially bts because they have so many good songs and bts has so much meaning it’s hard for me to completely understand sometimes!)

[@ylee442]

It's your channel, your content so it's up to you what you want to create videos about. It's people's choice whether they want to follow you or not, so hopefully this video isn't in response to anyone complaining about too many BTS content. TBH, I started subscribing and paying for Patreon bc of the BTS content and I like to show support to fellow ARMY

[@anipigs]

I recently subscribed to your channel and I really didn't get that impression at all. And I already watched the biking video from Busan to Seoul. I'm into Korean culture more than actual K-pop (but it goes together so 🤷) and I think is totally understandable that you guys mention a lot BTS, come on, that's the boom. Whether you like it or not they're opening the path westward (well, westward if you see the 2D Mapa Mundi haha) for other artists. Also, I've been watching Seoul City Vibes and I super enjoyed when you met the Brazilian girl, it was super funny. And the video where Danny "lost" his phone. Anyways, this is getting long: I particularly really enjoy your videos, period.

[@tavleenkour270]

As you guys said that u look for something in the lyrics, the mv or the concept to explain any music video, your haters and most importantly BTS haters should understand this by now that BTS universe and story line has been so splendidly constructed that it has high conversational value and topics which can be discussed and understood. So if your channel becomes a forum for the international fans, like me, to understand BTS and Korean culture specifically, just take pride in it without worrying and unnecessarily self introspecting. Also, these haters aren't able to tolerate their visual based groups with big back support (let's not specify names, 😒😒)not getting attention anymore so they just used your channel as another route to gain some spotlight. SO JUST TAKE IT AS A FACT THAT ALONG WITH BTS, YOUR CHANNEL IS ALSO FAMOUS AS FUCK AND CHILL OUT. 😀🤘

[@OfficialGGlamour]

Danny, I’ll go watch your biking video! Also, you guys do whatever you wish to do with your channel. I feel like other fandoms just want their groups to be the center of topic regardless of what they release, premium quality or not. I agree with you guys, it hard to find an explanation and meaning in vague, repetitive lyrics and it’d be a waste of time to create a video when there is nothing genuine to address. What lyric explanation videos you have released, I find them very educating and insightful, especially BTS’s Idol because there was so much going on and as an international KPop fan from the U.S, I was oblivious to all the cultural messages in that video. You guys keep doing you! Much love 💜

[@rausagesaw]

Is this a rhetorical question? Because I'm pretty sure there are videos on their channel dedicated to other idols and topics that are not bts related 👀👀

[@Nina21_]

Honestly i subscribed to this channel because of BTS since the day i watched Ddaeng explained by you guys and i was so happy and grateful for those videos because it allows me to understand their deep lyrics/concepts

[@lyfeSOS]

I LOVE your new segment of DKDK-NEWS! I like getting a Korean perspective on k-entertainment news. I actually got hooked on your channel after I watched your reaction to Ryan Higa's pseudo-kpop group BGA - again because it offered a Korean's opinion on it. I've been a fan ever since. Keep up the good work! The tremendous amount of effort you put into your content is very much appreciated!

[@muni2008]

Hi Danny and David. I hope you guys take care of your mental and emotional state. I have been watching your videos for more than an year and I have enjoyed the various content you share because I love learning about Korean culture, history and the current socio-political topics. You have often provided different views on many of these aspects and I’m happy especially about the documentary you did for the shirt issue. It’s these small interactions and information that we as international fans don’t have access to but appreciate. Anyway you can give us more BTS content coz AMRY will watch quality content because we appreciate it. People keep complaining but they don’t even engage as much with the content that’s related to their groups. 💜💜💜

[@isaaameee7577]

Yeo I started watching your channel because of your BTS explanation videos and I was like FINALLY SOMEONE LIKE YOU IS MAKING THESE but then as I started to get more invested and started watching some of your other Kpop explanation MV (Kpop artists I don’t even listen to”) but it was good to watch because I ended up liking the song and the meaning behind it. Also like David’s diet video but now I just watch everything you guys post because there genuinely good videos. 😂 I don’t think you guys are just a BTS channel, I’m actually glad your channel exists. 💜 welp Im going to sleep now. I’ll watch your biking videos tmro Danny🤩

[@ty_____]

David and Danny, please don't stop what you guys have been doing. As an older International ARMY, you have no idea how much I appreciate your videos, especially your explained videos. Ddaeng brought me to your channel and I have been following since. I am thankful for your videos. 💜

[@maddi0148]

So what I'm getting at is that there are people who are pressed that their faves don't have content worth making a whole video about. Literally bts is the most active group right now.. so what do people expect. I don't see the problem in making bts videos if it gets them views. So yeah props to dkdktv, I hope you reach your 1 million soon. Don't feel bad for liking bts

[@jaquelinelima9450]

Hi guys! Keep doing whatever you guys want to do! Its awesome and I will watch it all! The main reason for me to subscribe to this channel and spend hours binge watching what I lost is because you are SOOO authentic! The contents about the cities, the 'explained' series, the hiroshima and nagasaki bomb, the impeachment and things with that sociological background/interest ARE SO PRECIOUS! I LOVE IT! But even when you guys just give your opinions on kpop i like it because I LIKE YOU! As RM says: DO YOU! haha XO from a brazilian admirer!

[@AlM22]

Lmaooo the salty BTS antis getting mad They can simply skip your BTS videos, no one forces them to watch your BTS content. You (especially David) love BTS and a lot of your audience does too - so there is nothing wrong with that. They should just watch the other videos you do and ignore your BTS ones if it gets them so heated lmao. You DO make other videos so I don't know why they conveniently overlook those just to fit their narrative of claiming you only react to BTS smh. So selective. Hopefully the complaints won't pressure you to change your content or talk about them less just to please some irritable viewers.

[@janna7843]

I'm glad that your channel change for a better, like from reactions to explaining lyrics and videos which is actually great especially for an international like me. This 2019 i wish you could talk about the Kpop trends through the years, like music or fashion or how kpop eras differ from each other.

[@Ndhusbbfe]

I personally don't watch your BTS content because I don't listen to them, but I would't say you are BTS channel :) They are popular topic and if you want to cover it- your decision, some people enjoy it less, some people enjoy it more. However, as a foreigner living in Korea I personally prefer series like Seoul City Vibes, because you are Koreans who are fluent in English and I got so much tips and tricks and ideas for my trips/visits thanks to your series :) I occasionally do watch your kpop explanations and find them really amusing (especially since right now I am learning Korean while living here) And as a BIGBANG fan I'd like you to do explanation on some of their older releases who are really meaningfull and to this day I don't get them 😂 And after all this is your channel and do however you feel like doing. Keep up the good work, I can only imagine how hard this is :)

I originally subscribed to this channel because of the Seoul city vibes episodes (and yes Danny your biking to Busan video series as well) but I do enjoy the K-pop stuff as well which is a good balance. People just like to complain because they don't have any consequences. Keep up the good work and doing what your doing.

[@camila8031]

@@mitraaxxiv109 she didn't lied tho y'all pressed for a reason

[@crsskll11]

@@mitraaxxiv109 I don't think she was throwing shade though. BTS does have meaningful lyrics, while other groups have more repetitive (which isn't necessarily bad, since repetitiveness equals catchyness) and somewhat superficial lyrics. There's nothing wrong with having "repetitive and superficial" lyrics, it's not like every group has to talk about serious issues. Kpop groups are just that, groups, and their job is to sing/rap, dance and entertain their fans, it's not like their job is to make people aware of serious issues. Some groups (like BTS) decide to have meaningful lyrics/mv/content in general, thus making it easier for channels like DKDKTV to talk about them. Obviously BTS aren't the only ones who have this kind of message; Stray Kids is also a good example of meaningful music. Finally I think that the OP said kpopies referring to those Kpop fans that always go hating on BTS, just like armies who hate on other groups are sometimes called ermies (another example would be blinks and blonks) (Sorry for the long post and I hope you didn't get angry)

[@rin55]

It's not only your channel, same for many channels. People whine over there as well about everything being only bts. Don't take it to heart. Do what you do. Remember that these coments are probably from 12yo children. Your explained series is phenomenal. But tea and dumb entertainment is what brings more views. And clickbait titles. But quality is what sets you appart from tons of others doing the same. But you have the advantage of being korean and living in Korea. Also, everyone wants to be a youtuber these days and earn from it.

[@user-qs6vr3vs9l]

The short answer is NO, you're a KPOP channel; you offer contect/news/explanations on many groups. Just because you have more news on BTS doesn't mean you're biased towards them, BTS are simply more popular & have more news & topics for discussion these days so ofc you cover them more than other groups. Kpop fans who are telling you to focus more on other groups are kinda...not being realistic, you're gonna offer content that people are interested in & naturally many people (wether it's fans or haters) are more interested in BTS than other groups. Also I appreciate David always offering a fair opinion on BTS related issues, people think just you're biased towards them but in my opinion you're kinda just acknowledging their influence, you don't have to have negative opinions on something popular just to appear fair.

[@LindaMitchell]

As my people say, "Do you, Boo!" 😆 But seriously, I stumbled onto your channel because of Bigbang then BTS. I stayed and subscribed because of your variety of content and personality.
