'Mic Drop' and 'Run BTS' Performance At BUSAN CONCERT - Former Boyband Member Reacts!

[@lanibear2019]

The light sticks are ARMY bombs and at shows they can sync up to whatever is planned for the show. It is amazing. The fans also were doing fan chants. There are certain chants for certain songs. The main chant is the guys names.

[@NathanWalters]

That's so cool!

[@isabellereffas3679]

@@NathanWalters It is cool but just so you know, the fan chants are a Kpop thing. Each Kpop band has its own which is usually the band members names followed by the name of the band. Keep up the good work, I enjoy your discovery of BTS.

[@pyejammiesfanfic640]

The BTS fan chant starts with Kim Namjoon then goes through each member in age order and ending in, BTS.

This was a Free concert that had 50,000 people attending about 100,000 watching a liveplay from a nearby park and had approx. 50 mil online real time viewers. They did this for The World Expo 2030 and this was their last concerts as a group before they go to the military 💜

[@ruthfischer7615]

The number of online real-time viewers is almost certainly wrong. Weverse BTS only has about 24 million accounts now. And they were NOT all on. Weverse counts are questionable. Quiet likely they counted every reload as a new viewer and because of the break-down that means a lot of reloads. Where there other places that were online? sure, but not that big. What actually worked was the JTBC view and strictly speaking I'm not sure how you would get the numbers from that. So if you have a good source to prove me wrong I'd like to be corrected but I'm sceptical.

Be careful to say you have a light stcik if ever you go to an airport though when describing what the ARMY Bomb is. Seriously. Lol. Loved watching this online live when they did esp Run since there was originally no choreography so it was a big surprise and there’s a whole lot they put into certain moves that covers them being together. E.g. When JHope does his rap, he calls out each member’s real name and they jump out from behind him, they do a move that they always do before and after shows, other. Thank you! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜👏👏👏

Kpop artists work so incredibly hard. Their live singing while dancing is insane. Most American artists will go on stage for an hour or hour and half set with opening artists. Kpop artist go on stage and perform for 3 hours! With minimal breaks. Also the light sticks seen in the audience are called army bombs. You can sync them up to your seat at the stadium and it creates a light show during the performance.

[@jonok42]

I have never seen a kpop concert that was three hours. Usually they are two hours and there are breaks for solo numbers and unit numbers and vhs's which usually last 5 to 10 minutes. Then there are the breaks for them to talk to the crowd. They have to have rests or they will lose their voices. I went to The Back Street Boys concert last year. They did have an opening act, but then they came out and performed for 2 hours. They did have a couple of wardrobe changes and solos and duets were done during those. Jonas Brothers do the same. I don't do a lot of concerts, but I do know others that do. They all say the same. Idols aren't really IDOLS.

The light stick that we call an Army Bomb sinks up based on your concert ticket seat. The whole concert is lit up with beautiful colors and changes in our light sticks. It’s honestly so beautiful to see in person. The energy is so palpable and the mutual love for each other is so present in whatever arena we are in. I have had seats back on level 2 and have been front row for their Permission to Dance concerts in LA and Vegas. There is no bad seat in a BTS concert. They do give 120%+ all the time. They will tell us they are going on a hiatus or mini vacay break and we get bombarded with so much surprise content as if they aren’t on a hiatus at all. Their live band is amazing and really gives a different feel to the songs. One of my all time favorite segments of their shows is when they do a medley of several songs in their show. The energy is fire! You have the Army Bombs shinning and fireworks, confetti flying everywhere and the guys going hard for what feels like a good 30 minutes straight! It’s impressive for sure. I think you would enjoy watching one of these. Also, I would recommend listening to Life Goes On live. A song they wrote during the pandemic when all we could do was miss each other and long for the moment we could reunite together.

[@Sujan_Draws]

The constant smile on your face is exactly why we all love BTS, especially the live performances. I hope you check out the more vocal line driven performances. The thing with BTS is you just can pick a genre and they’ve done it. EDM, ballads, rap, rock, punk, metal…yeah. I can’t wait for you to go deeper!

[@stacybrenton5482]

"Run BTS", not "Run - that's a whole other song," is a very special song. This concert was the first and last time they performed and did choreo of this live for us. They released, Run BTS, on their Proof album about 5-6 months before performing it live. This was their last concert as they were starting their sojourn rotation to their mandatory military service. It was very emotional for everyone and I would say bittersweet for them as well as ARMY. Glad you enjoyed it. They do slow down and perform some slower songs like Butterfly and Zero O'Clock at one point = tears. Worth watching every second if you can.

[@evantesseract737]

Butterfly HURT. I'm not complaining. But ow.

[@literaryhype]

1. Yet to Come was a one-time concert in Busan as part of the city's bid to host the world expo 2. That song is "Run BTS", not to be confused with BTS's song "Run", or their variety show, "Run BTS". Lol. 3. The lights in the audience are lightsticks, which is a common thing for Korean bands. They each have their own design. BTS's is called the ARMY Bomb and is shaped like a bomb (but we don't call them that at events. Lol). 4. This is the only time BTS performed "Run BTS" live. They announced Jin was going into the military shortly after this concert. 5. Yes, those were the first two songs of the concert. They kept that energy for two hours. Jin was sick and still sang well. 6. The chant at the beginning is the fan chant of their Korean names. Kim Namjoon, Kim Seokjin, Min Yoongi, Jung Hoseok, Park Jimin, Kimm Taehyung, Jeon Jungkook, BTS. It's the leader, then oldest to youngest.

I saw it in the theatre after (limited showing) then I think I saw it on Disney after, think you can see the whole thing on Disney still . . . In the theatre it was amazing because the camera went up so close, you could see the marks on their faces and the behind the stage! . . .(Those are called ARMY bombs, and yes, they do sync during the concert if you go to a live concert, you are going to want to get one!)I've got mine now, waiting for 2025 . . .Never got to go to a live concert (discovered them only during Covid) didn't realize how much I would fall in love with them until it was too late and this was their last whole group concert . . .Waiting, counting the days down though until they all are out in 2025 though!!!!!

[@annarobrigado7196]

one thing you should always remember when it comes to BTS and Army. Anything the Bangtan boys do, Army is always included. That goes for their albums, their videos, and most especially their live performances. The light sticks that are essential to the fandom will be coordinated with the stage lights and sounds, so that the changes in the stick lights will become part of the stage performance. it gives Army a very deep feeling of being one with BTS and that contributes very much to the overall experience of watching a BTS concert, something that army all over the world dream of being able to do at least once in their lifetime. It is not just a concert; it is a life-altering experience.

[@nellies-taekook-journals]

TY for sharing this. This was the only time BTS performed "Run' BTS" live. It's their last full concert. "Run BTS" was a fan favorite as soon as "Proof' was released and enthusiasm for the choreo was high. Mic Drop is a concert favorite from 2017. It's a great concert but for me (with vision problems) it's too dark. Most people who go to their concerts are actual dues paying ARMY members... (There's a drawing so the GP hardly ever gets a chance at tickets.) So they know all the lyrics months before they ever get to the venue. This was a huge event in Busan, the beginning of a push to get an international festival (2030 World Expo) to choose Busan for it's main location. The stadium sold out and they set up a venue with a big screen at the beach a mile away. It was also live streamed. This one had 'technical problems' at Weverse on the live stream so a lot of people were disappointed and the concert had to be re-streamed (?) the next week. Thanks for watching it though... I hope you can watch the whole thing without interruptions sometime.

[@darevibin]

I love this breakdown so much. the reason why this set in particular was so important to army was cus that this was their last concert as a band together. they JUST released RUN BTS just a few months prior in their latest anthology proof. it only featured 2 unreleased songs and this was one of them. they were teasing that they wouldn't be able to perform it for us but they surprised army with this performance with their second song of the night. I remember watching this and i was going NUTS when i heard "ye yeh," cus i was like "NO FRICKIN WAY BRO:" the choreo also went hard. i respect these guys a lot. i was a hater for no reason at all except for the fact that they were famous until i heard mic drop in 2018. i fell in love with Namjoon and his swag and then eventually found my love for bts and what they stood for. now jhope is on his way to replacing jungkook as my bias honestly, i am really excited for your journey through BTS, Nathan. Keep burrowing through the rabbit hole! I find that their music heals way more than any other songs I've listened to but still has that mainstream sound to it. I've come to appreciate life in a different way and accept people no matter where they come from and what language they speak.

Just an FYI, fan chants are common throughout K-POP and so are light sticks. Every group and solo artist typically has a light stick that is unique to them. They are programmed to be in sync with each other and with the music. Do a quick search on KZbin of a light stick ocean and you’ll see some good examples

@@nellies-taekook-journals Ah you are right. I got mixed up because I saw the dance practice video first, but that because I saw the concert in the theater and that must have been after the practice video.

[@nellies-taekook-journals]

@@maryr1905 You're right... I didn't get to see the theater version. (I can't drive at night anymore. ☹

[@evantesseract737]

I was so glad they released it because the stage version is black on black and the details are hard to see 😂

[@candicesmith-mackenzie6303]

Once again, I love your reaction. We have finally won you over to the live side. Hee hee They are Rock Stars!!!! 😘💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🫰🏻

Would you believe, Yet to Come live in Busan is my very first encounter with BTS. They got me at the very first song, Mic Drop. And have been in love with them since then. I really regret all the years I did not know them.

[@euniceazarraga2406]

And they came into my life when I was suffering from depression, in the brink of ending my life. Then I got to know them more and their Love yourself campaign. They now hold a very very special spot in my heart. Forever inked in my body. I can’t wait to see them in person when they get off from military duty.

[@janiceholmes5198]

That is one of my favorite live performances...not just for BTS...but EVERYONE! They really thrive/feed off of the energy from ARMY. That's what makes them beautiful!

[@pamesaat]

There will never be a band like BTS maybe in their time it was Jackson 5 but no one can compare to them and I think there will never be a band like them like BTS and that's why they are great.💜💜💜💜💜💜 I love them BTS Thank you for existing 😘

[@bbluvs1029]

This is their last concert before their military inlistment. This is a huge concert and free! This is treat for Armys!!

[@stillwithyou7072]

BTS performances live is a whole different ball game. They give 200% and the fans the same. Saw them at Wembley in 2019 it was amazing.

[@shannonslutzky4754]

So not too confusing….they have a show called “Run BTS”. Then they have an older song called “Run”…then this song which is new called “Run BTS”(for which this was the first ever performance of) 😂💜💜 Imo this particular video of this performance made it harder to hear them than some, but still..amazing. Thank you for your insight 💜

[@evantesseract737]

They did us no favors with those titles 😂

[@reecegentry]

this was the first time we got run bts live and witnessed the choreography. as someone who woke up at 5 am to watch it live from my home, it was SO WORTH IT JUST FOR THAG MOMENT. ten years later and they still give it 100000%

[@rakhijm8708]

ARMY chants are so perfectly blend with BTS songs🎉🎉

[@nancysmith3400]

💜🤗Busan is Jimin’s hometown I think jk too. Jimin, jk, and Suga have marshal arts backgrounds. I like the way you make the screen for BTS the focus as you respond. So much fun sharing the journey with you, thanks for the Love.💜🌎🤗

[@ninaiyenk5369]

Loves your reactions at their performance. I love to rewatch this concert video and hopefully in 2025 can see their live concert. 🤩

[@AVAILABLEAAA]

My 6yr old and I stayed up all night so we could watch this concert on livestream when it happened. We lost our minds, it was beautiful to see her face as she was enchanted by BTS

[@aveshreemoodley5573]

Thank you for this reaction. I watched this in the theatre screening and it was amazing, closest to seeing them live. Love the earring Nathan

[@lachibolala7300]

You should watch the ‘RUN BTS’ dance practice! It really shows how synchronised and energy packed performance they deliver everytime

[@kathryndoyle2075]

The Busan Yet To Come concert was a promotional (benefit) concert for Busan’s Expo 2030 bid.

[@KatieBoo13]

Its called smart marketing. Whom ever came up with the ARMY BOMBS knew they would be a great money maker and asset to their concerts especially them winking to the stadium and interacting with each song!!!

[@mylenainacio273]

Longer reaction! YAAAASSSS! Best one so far! The first thing I thought when he said at the begining that he didn't like live concerts was Yoongi at 2021 Festa impersonating his dad saying "Once you get a BTS' concert taste you won't go/want anywhere else" hahah

[@maryr1905]

This Busan concert replay in movie theaters in the US was my introduction to BTS. I didn’t even know their names yet or many of their songs and was captivated by the whole concert. Someone should fill Nathan in on the Army culture. I went to Suga’s concert and fans were passing out gift bags and things they had made. The BTS experience is amazing on so many levels. I’ve gone to many many concerts and BTS is unique.

[@alpaca143]

These guys are really amazing see how hard their choreo keep on moving energetically but they can still sing very well..much respect for them they working hard 🥰💜💜

[@Purple_HippieGirl]

Dude, I'm 55 y/o. I love all genres of music. I have been to a lot of live shows in my lifetime. I saw BTS in Vegas for the first time in April of 2022. It was THE most amazing concert ever! The BTS fandom (ARMY) is CRAZY loyal! There is NO better fandom in the world. We had the BEST time! It was an experience I will remember for the rest of my life. Truly. BTS and ARMY are the real deal.

[@ghost.ranger1628]

The lights changing colors in the crowd are ARMY BOMBS.

[@gingerroxx]

It's been mentioned, but the Run BTS choreography was created just for this one and only concert! This is the only time they've performed this live (there's also a 'dance practice' video but no standard MV). The song is about looking back at all the hard work and grind they've done to get to this point, and wanted their performance to capture the precision and energy of their early career. They really left it all out on that "Yet to Come" stage because they knew they wouldn't be able to play for ARMY again for over two years.

[@Jimins_Minion]

Oh, and they usually do a heavier version of some songs when live. ARMY would beg that they release concert soundtracks too since the versions are amazing. So far, I think only Jhope released a couple of live songs. He re-released Jack in the box to include 2 versions from his Lollapalooza (HOBIpalooza) stage. The whole album is AaaaaMazing! Actually, you may want to react to full albums, even if it’s just their chapter 2 solo albums. It shows you each members personality since it’s their own personal album which that’s managed/created from start (coming up with the songs and what message they want to impart) all the way to how they want to promote them.

[@qam0598]

Yeahh BTS it's AMAZING, package complete, rockstar, pop, rap, dancing and handsome boy😘

[@sc33h3o3]

My fave live performance of Mic Drop was when they made history, as usual, on Saturday NIght Live, they did Mic Drop (had a dance break, great camera angles!) and Boy With Luv. I read that you can't hear how deafening the screams were in the studio, i believe people lined up for blocks days in advance

[@evantesseract737]

I think I've seen a compilation of Suga just dropping mics 😁
