BTS "IDOL" Reaction Pt 2: Video Director Comments (KOR/ENG Analysis)

[@Minidance]

We discussed many things! Jump to: 00:06 Beyond Idol 01:57 B-Class Style 04:09 Techniques 05:58 Creative Direction 08:43 Beyond Expectations

[@Paminjapan]

RM said he wanted this song to be like a festival they wanted to share with ARMY, a celebration for us. Incorporating South African beats, dance moves ( Gwara Gwara). costuming and background with traditional Korean.. If you notice at the beginning the sun is rising and on the table is a globe turned to South Africa and a ship on the other end. During the song the sun rises, the moon comes out and the sun goes down but never sets and at the end, the globe is turned towards South Korea. The message is, our ship (music) sails continuously around the globe, the sun never sets in our world as there is always the sun shining somewhere upon an ARMY, they are the light of our lives. Pretty cool right? and why we cherish BTS.

[@Minidance]

Pam injapan Yes so cool! Yuji and totally got the festive impression. We had no idea about the South African motifs when we watched this, but now I've read/watched more info and learned about Gwara Gwara and the globe, etc. It's such an interesting mix of influences: EDM music from Europe and US, South African dance and backdrops, plus Korean outfit and lyrics. I guess it shows how BTS is both grounded in their identity but free to explore the world. It's exhilarating concept really, and I am glad they delivered in the EDM style that we can all dance to 👏😍

[@oetn-3]

좋은영상 잘봤씁니다 헌데 설명중 시리즈에 완성을 너무 간단하게 3곡정도로만 표현한게 아쉽다고 하셨는데 그건 잘못알고 계신거 같씁니다..방탄에 앨범음원 성적이 좋은이유중 하나가 앨범전체에 수록곡들이 많은이야기를 전하고 있기때문입니다..물론 뮤직비디오를 설명해주시는 영상인건 알고 너무 잘보았지만 음악적인 이야기를 해주실때 조금만 더 신경써주세요

[@zuhalhashimi38]

Something a lot of fans have theorized is that they got inspiration from criticism they’ve gotten in the past. For example, you see RM with face filters in the mv and once during a livestream, a viewer told him not to wear face filters anymore. The same happened with V and his glasses and you see him wearing glasses for most of the video. Some other possible ideas, “there are too many members” -> members are multiplied through editing and “kpop is too weird”-> makes a really weird video. Also, “Running Man” is a reference to a cast member, Haha. He gave V a shout out in his song so BTS did the same! It might also be a reference to being crowded in airports. In the past the members, especially RM & Suga, faced criticism for being hip hop idols and this is their response to that! They couldn’t care less since they know who they are and what they want so now they’d rather have a festival with ARMY!!! :) also, they used South Korean beats and a dance they incorporated that they’ve been bringing up is called “gwara gwara”! BTS always manage to break expectations and they’ve never been afraid. Anytime when they have had an idea that they believe in, they chase it without fear. That’s why ARMYs love them and believe in them! We trust their talent and their passion. We trust them to say what needs to be said and their fearlessness and ambition inspires us. Also, they often speak to fans as “peers.” Check out the lyrics to songs like Fire and Not Today!! And in maaaany of their B-side tracks like Tomorrow, Bapsae, and Paradise. BTS are very open with who they are and what they believe in:) Sorry for writing so much and I really enjoyed this analysis!!! I enjoy these kinds of videos and reactions a lot because it’s interesting to hear it from both of your perspectives. Thank you (:

[@Minidance]

Thank you for the eloquent summary! BTS are vulnerable humans like us, but they can be fearless when they believe in something, even though it goes against expectations. And they can do so because they trust each other and their ARMY friends. 👍

[@HailToTheMeep]

Years in the future, your comment helps new ARMY like me 😊 This video too 😊 Thank you both.

[@korezine3854]

I enjoyed your analysis! People and some fans are criticising the CGs because they seem crappy. But for me, I love it, esp bc like what you said about B-class shots executed at S-class. Some things that didn't make sense to me before make sense to me now. Thank you!

[@Minidance]

Yeah I think it was very bold of BTS to produce this video in this campy style. I am guessing they believed this style would suit their message better. I like it because it reminded me that BTS is not just about the high fidelity production, but also about the message.

[@1obsessionafteranother794]

I agree with the points you discussed. I think BTS & BIGHIT did an exceptional job of deliberately misdirecting people with the teaser of what to expect from IDOL mv. They’re so clever.

[@Minidance]

Yeah and we all had fun theorizing their intentions! I had no idea about the South African motifs. I am glad they chose to showcase "global but local" in such an interesting way.

[@1obsessionafteranother794]

Minidance When I saw IDOL mv, I suddenly remembered that BANG PD had said that he was looking at South African music. So although I was at first surprised it also very quickly made sense to me.

[@AF-ft6nh]

I can't even express in words how much I love your commentary and analysis. It's really professional, eloquent and in-depth. When I watched the video for the first time, I was shocked, but in a very positive way - the music, choreo, editing, outfits, colors, lyrics, the whole concept... it was such an incredible sensory overload that I started to dance even before the first chorus started because I felt so happy. I should mention that I hate dancing because I'm not confident in myself... So I was very, very surprised about that. Lots of people think the video is a satire of stereotypical K-Pop videos. I agree, but, to be honest, something different is much more important - it's the fact that they can use all those stereotypical K-Pop elements to express themselves and not even care about what other people may think. Watching it for the first time, I noticed bad CG, ridiculous zoom ins, cloning and so on, but BTS/Big Hit used them is such a clever way that instead of thinking "this is cliche, this is weird, this is stupid", I simply thought "this is so much fun!". Later, RM said they wanted to make IDOL feel like a festival and I think they achieved this effect perfectly. I'm seeing them in London soon, I can't even imagine how fun the concert is going to be... It was very risky for BTS to make such a music video and I can see that even among the armys there are some that don't really understand or like the concept because they wanted and expected something 'deep'. But I think we're focusing too much on 'deep stuff' while failing to understand even the simplest ideas... I feel like the idea behind IDOL is so simple that it's difficult to understand. Hah, sorry for blabbering so much, I'm just so excited because you expressed in words so many of my personal feelings about the song and the music video. I could truly feel how much both of you were amazed. I'm going to check out more of your videos since this one was so interesting!

[@auliakeke]

9:22 Gosh, I love your analogy so much. I never thought of this (again) and that's what we had been missing. We forgot the fact that *BTS* is that *one particular group* who *breaks all the stereotypes and prejudices about being an idol.* This era is... well, they totally *_snapped._* And I couldn't love this era more. I'm super hooked. BTS absolutely snatched all of the wigs out there. 👌🏻💕

[@doraaaa0613]

i personally loved the kitsch style! it was very well done and has a tongue in cheek vibe. it's so clear the direction they were aiming for artistically when you read the lyrics! and i agree so much with what he said, that the EDM isn't westernised, it's south african! it's not at all a style that is popular in the west. i think bts was well aware of what people were murmuring about them - they are making music catering to the western market to appease them, and right at the height of their popularity in the west they said 'well watch us do the exact opposite! we don't care, we make the music we want!' and the message just glares at you through the explosion of colour and individuality and genuineness expressed in the lyrics and mv :) i love that they did this, and i love that they made it clear that their motivation still remains to be true to not only their roots but also themselves, since that is the essence of bts and why people started loving them in the first place!

[@divya2680]

This comment 👌

[@monokakirimi7833]

I really love how he brought up the color from past videos and noticed it in this video because you can tell that BTS chooses specific colors to represent or tell a story and to most fans they might not notice this detail...and I also like how you guys brought up the similar usage of sets and overall it was nice to hear your opinions about the video!❤️

[@fatimaamellouk1686]

No matter how many analysis I read about the mv there's always something more to learn, thank you so much for making this, you did an amazing job 👍👍👍

[@heesuh9505]

As usual all of background cgs have meanings and purpose why they need to be there. Also they combined African outfits, dance choreo and tune with Korean. You might want to check out explanation video for more details. There are a couple of them that are made well.

[@keyd8489]

there's so much to say about how much i appreciate AND LOVE both of your analyses and opinions and the way you bring your perspectives and experience to color your thoughts about the video - but mostly i just want to say I'm so so so so so so grateful you offer english subtitles! Thank you thank you thank youuuuuuuuuu! This content is so unique for non-korean-speaking viewers, and it's so special we can have access to it beyond the language barrier. Thank you!!! haha :)

[@Minidance]

Happy to hear that 😊 Thank you for letting me know!!

[@viviphio760]

I could relate so much when u said this song made u feel closer to them. I love all their songs, but it feels like they are in a different world from me, while this song is just like they are asking me personally to have fun together with them. Love your reaction anyway..

[@Minidance]

Yeah I think with "IDOL," we are part of the message -- as opposed to an audience who receive the message. It's different and awesome really.

[@estherpiry3913]

what I think about this MV song of BTS is because of they are being criticized by many people (by haters) so that's what BTS make this lyric/song to love themselves or yourself, the fans/Army around the world for sure love them, I love my Boyband BTS!

[@bead9749]

Wow your 2 videos needs more views.. really..great analysis

This BTS single Idol and music video is world-class. Judging it strictly on its results, it has broken records, highest number of ayoutuve views in first day, over 50 million, currently more than 100million views. US top album sales chart Number1. It will anounce tomorrow BTS has their second Number 1 US Billboard200 album Congratulations to 7 members of BTS and their BigHit production team and cast. Congratulations Korea, and I hope this open the doors to any Korean artist wihing to perform on the world stage.

[@gongaroo1028]

Yuji-shi, thank you so much for your insight and experience. I love hearing input from professionals so your words are very much appreciated. Thank you for sitting down and taking the time to make this video. I really enjoy this series!

[@auliakeke]

5:29 When the 감독님 pointed out that BTS frequently used trees in the background since BS&T era... I was like, "Ooooo...kaaay....?" 5:33 _Boom._ *_MIND BLOWN._* I never thought of that! _SKRJDHSLSBWL._ And it sent chills down my spine. This is why I love your videos ever since you reacted on BS&T one. SO MUCH LOVE! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT FOR THE BOYS! Please keep supporting more in the future 💜

[@smalmon]

Amazing reaction! Also, I want to point out that in the beginning of the Idol mv, there was a globe on top of the table that they were sitting around on the right. It had it pointed to North America. But at the end of the video, if you look at the globe, you see it pointed to South Korea. I think that further clarifies the double message of the mv that BTS will stay true to their roots.

[@Minidance]

👍 I got goose bumps when I first heard that detail! So cool

[@carolcvargas1]

just want to clarify that it was actually pointing out to Americas, not only the one in the north

[@ygdd431]

촬영비하인드영상이 있습니다. 참고로 봐주시면 좋을 것 같습니다. 영상보시면 감독님께서 첨언해주실 것들이 많을 것 같고 정확한 설명이 나올 거 같아요 좋은 리액션 영상 감사합니다😉

[@kristensantamaria5746]

I really enjoy the videos the two of you do together. My husband works in television and I ask him many things about videos. But the thing I like about IDOL is, well, first the message and second there is all that Korean tradition packed into it. So many Korean ARMYs have been so kind in explaining what the symbolism is or why this is in there. It has been a great lesson in your culture for this American ARMY. My husband could not answer those questions. Also, I know many people were saying that BTS had become too westernized and don't remember their roots. Well, you can't be more Korean than IDOL. There performances during the award season were out of this world. I hope you saw them. Especially the Melon Music Awards with Fake Love, Airplane pt. 2 and IDOL. It was the most impressive performance of IDOL I have seen. Thank you for all the reactions the two of you have done for BTS. 💜

[@AMower9796]

You have to watch the behind so you can see the sets too. #BTS never does ANYTHING MINDLESSLY! TRUST ME!! EVERYTHING HAS A MEANING. For those of us that understand, we have fun rewatching and finding more and more. Just know that every video they have ever done since debut showed up again in this video in some way whether by choreography, makeup of background dancers, glitche film in background, setting, lyrics, theme, whatever. The rest of it is all referencing in some way a member's way of referencing a specific story that bugged them. #IDOL Thank you for appreciating them like you do!

[@Minidance]

NOONASROCK Thanks! Of course, we wouldn’t think it was mindless ;) We didn't know about the references like the glasses, glitches, or stickers, but guessed the seemingly strange details were all done to serve the overall message and vision. And we still enjoyed this video immensely. 👍

[@kudgeond755]

Thanks! Great combination of technical expertise & explanation, Korean context & perspective, and fan knowledge & insight. I was a little surprised you didn't say much about the shark cage and the giant figures that loom over them. I"m sure ARMY has a bunch of theories and explanations but here's my take on it. The shark cage is a transformed version of the Korean pavilion and it's also their performance stage. It's a safe place for them but they're surrounded by a dangerous environment and the sharks would love to rip them to shreds. Meanwhile their global image has ballooned out of control but who they really are is still the seven guys singing and dancing in the shark cage/pavilion/stage. It's my favorite part of the MV because I think they're acknowledging the reality & the hype around them and the arguments about Korean vs western and idol vs artist and saying none of it really matters. They're true to themselves and their roots and they're happy with who they are and what they do so you can call them what you want because anyone else's label, image or judgement is irrelevant when you truly love yourself.

[@august3059]

This analysis definitely made me appreciate the IDOL MV a lot more. Initially, I was conflicted as to whether I liked the song or the graphics at all because it seemed tacky to me. After watching this, not only did I fall in love with the actual song but now I actually appreciate the video itself as well.

[@kcrayzme2341]

This was a really great insight and analysis! Thank you very much!!!

[@jamesrawlins735]

I Love this analysis- not just the meaning but how the mv was shot

Love your editing and your analysis 💕👍 One of the best YT channels in analysing BTS videos! And I love your subtitles. They have the perfect size, speed and locating so I can follow the video AND the subtitles at the same time (on other channels I often have to pause and rewind so I can read the subtitles again because they were too fast or too small) Thank you 💗

[@Minidance]

Good to hear the content and the layout is working ok! Appreciate the feedback 😊

[@minteasweet6371]

I like that BTS can have emotional songs but also hype songs that expresses their fun side. In 화양연화 pt 1, there was I Need U and Dope. In You Never Walk Alone, there's Spring Day and Not Today. For this album, it seems like it's I'm Fine and Idol. I know that Lumpens is really good at making these types of music videos, so it feels like a very good match. Thank you for these videos! It's always interesting to hear what professionals have to say!

[@Minidance]

So true, Save Me and Fire too I guess? Must be exciting for Lumpens to work with such fast-growing artist.

[@asielzal4790]

whoa very apt description, this was the reason I love BTS craft in the first place coz of "taking pride of their identity", their culture as a whole. If they ever produce a "full english song" I am not sure I would love that AS MUCH as I adore their all Korean music. I admire & love their music as it is, its ok to have some english words here & there but not in full song. I am not S.Korean but am a huge fan of BTS.

[@minbie]

[@maryfrancenamantillo8668]

Thank you for the review. Pretty sure many had said this but the mv has reasons why it is like that. Starting from the teaser to the actual mv, bts gave different vibes from the teasers to music video. They was criticized with DNA MV and they're like wtf, we will do this again. There are so many happenings in here. . RM wearing filters- he was told to stop using filters during his live and he said sorry . V wearing large glasses - he was like heck, i look good .the frame full of camera - they're like flooded with camera left and right .taehyung passing tru many people- they got mob before, jimin fell because someone grab him in the airport, someone hurt suga's elbow at the airport and many more .Flooded faces of them - typical stereotypes to korean men. People say they all look the same. .wearing hanbok- they were called westernized by many people but they're like damn. We are korean .jhopes rabbit sweater- people criticized him for his bugs bunny personality .yoongi snow white shirt- criticized for being very pale .plastic/giant figures of them- they're being called plastic or had done plastic surgeries. (Which is not true) .jimin solo with NO SIGNAL background - they were accused of plagiarizing bigbang's no signal video during performance before. .shark - they're koreans , they're tigers (representation) but cant be touch by anyone even sharks. Because they're stronger than anyone else. They're like wtf.. whatever you accuse us, call us idols, criticize us, accuse us with anything but I CANT STOP LOVING MYSELF so i will do whatever i want. Many things has been explained by another youtuber i forgot his channel,. About the korean lyrics and the symbolism (ilsam, sampal, gore, etc there)

[@castlefamilytv]

I always look forward to your reaction and analysis. You feed my curiosity that i dont get from other reactors. Thank you.

[@rajeshwari403]

I loved your analysis, it gave me a new perspective of the video from technical point of view, the B-class and S-class thing. The MV does hold deep meaning though. Every frame relates to something from previous music videos or some instances that happened, for example in a V-live one fan told V not to wear those glasses and in the video he is wearing the same glases, or in another V-live a fan told RM not to use filters and he said okay and here he uses cute filters. It all says "each of this is part of me, and I find a new me everyday". So, the MV is also very different. Them being in shark tank or the stage relates to them being in continuous public scrutiny (LY:Answer album concept pictures). Them being in the tank and shark attacking them is like their haters coming after them but they are above all that, they love themselves so what haters say doesn't matter. They always tell many serious concepts in a fun, energetic dance focused songs. Like Anpanman where they compare themselves to a superhero who is made up of bread and gives a piece of himself to feed all hungry children in the world. Then Go Go which say don't worry and spend it all but then it is a satire. Same goes with Donguel Breaker, which talks about materialistic society but the video and the song is so upbeat.

[@Minidance]

Thanks! I didn't know about the vlive references. Yuji and I didn't catch many details like the shark because we focused on only some aspects of the video (and also because we didn't have some of the background info). There are many fun KZbin videos breaking down the specifics of IDOL, so I hope this video offers a complementary point of view. Anyways, I really like the HYYH-LY arc and am happy that BTS is concluding the series with a self love message. And they chose a really interesting style of music and video to convey the message. BTW you might like my Anpanman reaction, where my friend explains the Anpanman motif to me 🙂

[@yevgenia7785]

Thank you for analyzing and discussing the IDOL mv! You got the main message of it and I was so happy to hear that) All of their MVs have their meaningful messages.

I had fun watching it too! Their DDAENG explanation was really fun.

[@인홉-q2h]

아이돌 뮤비 메이킹 영상보면 크로마키나 씨지 생각보다 없어요! 단체군무씬도 세트장 똑같이 지었어요! 페이크러브 뮤비도 씨지 아니였던 것 처럼..^^

[@Minidance]

그러게요 저도 보고 놀랬어요! 이 제작팀의 특징인가봐요 👍 멋지네요

[@인홉-q2h]

저도 메이킹영상 아니면 몰랐을거에요~ 이런게 나중에 메이킹영상 보는 재미인 것 같아요!ㅎㅎ 잼난 영상 감사해요!!

[@gelcaleo4031]

This is just a perfect and professional reaction vid. I mean, your reactions make sense. Unlike other reactions that are just full of 'woah' and 'omg', it made their reactions cringey. But yours is just, I'm speechless. You pointed out everything. Thank you for this, will absolutely wait for your next reactions! 💕

[@squeen114]

난 이채널을 왜 이제 봤지? 진짜 전문적이고 성의가 돋보이는 리뷰네요....영상이나 촬영기법등 광범위하게 분석해주시는 전문가는 저는 처음이구요......황송해하며 봤답니다......구독누르고 가요^^

[@HailToTheMeep]

I really enjoyed listening to you both talk about this music video. Today is 10 June 2023. Thank you for your educational content 😊

[@somebodyxoxo5094]

thank you so much for such a good analysis on IDOL....I always look forward for your reactions with mr director😇😆

조선 EDM은 어느 대학교에서 우리나라 전통악기를 전자음으로 표현해 준 부분이 있어서 그렇게 표현하고 있는 겁니다.

[@maggir8220]

Love your videos, it is so nice both english and korean speakers can watch it, so thank you for this. I wonder if you watch any of the making of videos for BTS MVs? They usually give good insight of how the shooting is done and would make a great addition to your videos in my opinion. I would be interested in what you think about it. Especially videos like Save me and Dope which are really special to me :)

[@hohomimmim]

Awesome analysis, this video deserves a million views, thank you 👏

[@minjunglee5724]

리액션 잘보고가요 촬영비하인드 보시면 의외로 씨지아닌화면이 많아요 그것도 리액션 하면 좋을거같아요 전문가분이시라서 잼있을거 같네요

[@Minidance]

맞아요 저도 오늘 비하인드 봤는데 세트인 장면이 생각보다 많아서 놀랐어요!

[@jonnamesa5058]

WOW I LOVE THE DISCUSSION! VERY IN-DEPTH!

[@trtakookie5367]

This is a great analysis. Thank you. Looking forward to more videos!

[@leeeeeee-]

정말 흥미로운 영상인거같아요!! 이 감독님과 fake love 뮤비도 리액션 해주시면 너무 좋을거같아요 펰럽도 효과가 굉장히 많은데 감독님입장에서 어떤것들이 어떻게 보이는지 궁금하네요😊 기회가된다면 언젠가 부탁드려요 ....ㅋㅋㅋ🥰

[@noellegerard9556]

I really enjoyed both of your insights for these last two videos!

[@jillbont2039]

Thank you director yuji! Thank you minidance!

[@vnnkx]

It's really interesting to see your reactions! I always end up knowing and learning a lot.

[@TheFighterfemme]

I love watching your analysis

[@ivberryyy4808]

I hope, you two can check out Fan theories about MV stories. I really want to know your and director-nim's perspective on how fans analyze BTS MVs. Start with *SPRING DAY* maybe? It would really awesome if you do. Thank youuuuu 💜

[@fictionlover2064]

잘 했어요.Thank you once again for an amazing analysis.Keep up the good work!!!!!!

[@syrenz14]

Thank you for adding english sub! I really enjoy how you both go into details and at the same time I'm learning Korean. :)

[@Minidance]

That's awesome! 한국어 질문 있으면 물어보세요~! 😊

[@구름솜망치-h8r]

첨에 병맛뮤비라고 생각하면서 계속봤는데 이게 B급감성의 SS표현화된 뮤비여서 그랬군요. 이제야 내가 왜 이 뮤비를 좋아하는지 확실히 알았네요. ㅎㅎ 이상하다고 느낀 뮤비를 보고또보고 계속보는 제가 좀 의문이였거든요 ~

[@Minidance]

그죠 저 묘한 매력이 뭔가 했는데... 제작팀의 노고가 엄청 들어갔을 것 같아요. 근데 뷔뷔인형님 프로필 사진이 그 유명한 구관인형이군요! 전에 사진 보고 너무 잘만들어서 충격 받았었죠..

[@musicnut1966]

Another great reaction and analysis. Love so much to hear both of your thoughts and see it from your points of view.

[@riekamelaniailhami748]

Thank you so much for appreciating BTS and Big Hit in a positive way. You really express it goodly and giving us more understanding about the IDOL MV that we LOVE already :) #BORAHAE

[@cavianp1388]

This is a reaction we all need to watch

[@StephannieJo]

amazing videos! thank you so much for the great analysis, director Yuji is awesome :)

[@reikokanazawa497]

4:54 actually it's not big white room, you can check it in mv behind shooting on bangtantv

[@RANIA-qe8bl]

Your analysis video is on point i like it 👍🏻 You can also check behind the scene of shooting

[@ninakochan1849]

THANK YOU FOR THIS REACTION 💜💜💜

[@ea9123]

비하인드 봤는데 셋트 다 만드셨던데요. v앱 방탄 뉘우스 보셔요. 촬영 비하인드 나와요.

[@Minidance]

네 메이킹 보니까 세트 많이 쓰셨더라고요. 그리고 많은 장면에서 크로마키랑 합성이 쓰인 것도 사실인 것 같아요. 3면이 크로마키인 장면들도 있고, 세트가 있어도 추가 합성이 되니까요

[@susanali5419]

Tbh, your videos are creative and quite iconic!♥️💜

[@btsismyeuphoriahqjjk432]

i always love your great analysis..thank you so much...most importantly for providings translations for us...thank you for breaking the mv down using your expertise ❤

[@yesenia645]

Thank you for the review! This was very educational and fun to watch 💜
