[@burhbruh1786]

For those who don't know, Royal Pirates were supposed to comeback before summer, but James the bassist got into a terrible accident which injured his hand/wrist severely to the point he still cant play the bass despite having been on it for years. The injury was so severe to the point that his hand started to darken, which meant there were even discussion of him having to amputate it. They probably had to scrap out some songs since he cant play bass live anymore. Thats why he is on the keyboard now, still sad he had to give up on his favorite instrument and probably has to go through many YEARS of therapy before going back on it.

[@TheCuteTanuki]

+BURH BRUH Ok... I knew he was bad but never knew what was going on. I also noticed the keybord and caught my attention. Oh my god. I was thinking it was smth like this but reading this just broke my heart. I'm so proud of James and his spirit.

[@ilaikcake]

+BURH BRUH Nooooo D; //crieeeee

[@yukixx36xx]

NOOO JAMES :// I did not know that ... I was so suprised about him at the keyboard... :( he and his bass... I hope his hand gets well soon !

[@estefanycardoza9138]

+BURH BRUH Wasn't he smashing a bass onto the metal shield looking thing? :(

[@burhbruh1786]

He explained on Instagram that the burning shield, represented his regrets/pain/past memories because he went through so much shit and might even lose his hand, since it turned a bit black. So him hitting the bass on the shield basically means, he wants to destroy those painful memories, and regrets, and move on.

[@YoungHye123]

this song is so underrated :(

[@doskoreabooxd2279]

True;-; they need more attention

[@ForLetsTune]

The whole band is, really. I can't believe people are still sleeping on them :(

[@doskoreabooxd2279]

ForLetsTune this whole video has a deep meaning and the song is bop

[@김재형-g1f]

Cuz Kpop is the dominant music genre for international fans.

[@miraaa6707]

yep :(

[@julietlor3757]

It's so sad that they are underrated. Their songs are so amazing and they definitely need more fans. Honestly, this is a different type of kpop and it's awesome.

[@dalnimmoon9002]

True, however it is arguably kpop because the pop stands for popular, so technically speaking any genre of music can be kpop.

[@viktoriaschmied6627]

@@dalnimmoon9002 actually while correct, that "popular " is defined itself as a certain rythm/sound. Iirc

[@pinguirritado694]

Yeah

[@김이름-e3k]

겨울에 듣기 좋은 노래

[@dalmates94]

woooowwww.. they look soooo manly.. Especially James, with his moustache .. hahha

[@dalmates94]

Why James did not play his guitar? Is it because, he is totally recovered?

[@nr-dv5wk]

+ARIS JL so its not only me. I knew he injured his left wrist (life of a bassist) but didn't know he couldnt play it anymore bcs of that 😭

[@dalmates94]

Nur Rabiatul Adawiyah right? but still grateful even though he not play his bass.. its freaking awesome with that thing (?) what it called? juz hoping he can play bass or guitar again..

[@nr-dv5wk]

ARIS JL idk what its called either. Lol i saw ppl called it synth? Idk haha yupp he looks cool with that thing he can bang his head now :P

[@dalmates94]

Nur Rabiatul Adawiyah is it this instrument same with Wonpil of Day6 playing? haha. right, its look cool to his. its okay. everything is fine n okay. we still support them, right?

[@eatyourkimchi]

So happy to see you all back! Great song and beautiful vocals as usual. James, you're a totally badass for pushing through despite your insane injury. *waves ~fighting~ pompoms in the air*

[@bladeyboiii]

+Simon and Martina EYK and RP, hwaiting!! ^_^

[@humairahossain1883]

Simon and Martina!!! I'm so glad you're supporting RP! Please please please can you mention these guys in a video? They deserve so much more attention. I LOVE YOU GUYS :)xx HWAITING! xxxx

[@kpopayumi93]

+Simon and Martina now I hope to see RP on EYK

[@yukixx36xx]

+Hum Hossain I share the same opinion !!! ♡

[@nicoledebruler37]

Does this mean RP will be in a FAP FAP video?!?! *happiness beyond words!*

[@chimmy3191]

i don't get why they are so underrated their songs are so good ;-;

[@Password9141]

Literally korean public not too into band..their market was segmented. Too bad, bcs so many amazing band that SK has.

[@nr-dv5wk]

maybe Koreans are more into pop and not so rock-ish. it is sad and sometimes I do wished that RP be promoted more and successful in Japan (bcs Japan is quite a good place for rock band) :)

[@aegyotime]

+Kpop Luver I was so shocked , I mean their songs are soo good, but when I kept talking about them to my friends no one knew them ;;

[@nr-dv5wk]

aegyotime they have and must know James. A very good way to introduce RP 😂

[@aegyotime]

Nur Rabiatul Adawiyah I showed their mv to my friend and now she loves them as much as I

[@bunglonsugus4097]

still watching in 2019, anyone?

[@cynthiarachellsosaabarca1071]

[@dream10tionmashups]

2020🙌❤️

[@aiamwondering848]

2020 though

[@cristaliplay8800]

2021 🔥

[@katthecake3538]

these angels have been through so much, give them a break fate.

[@venuscroft6890]

this is so good??? bts and royal pirates both got me running :-))

[@Adieos]

Omg were those pictures of Moon and his hyung? ;___;

[@nicoledebruler37]

+ielndyan That would be correct. All three put out a major heart break for this MV.

[@wingsofshadow]

+ielndyan Yes

[@SweetJenny75]

Did something happen with his hyung?

[@nicoledebruler37]

His older brother was the original bassist for the group before he passed away. Hence the rose on the bass guitar.

[@Korelice]

+Don'tKnowDon'tCare He passed away T.T

[@syimato]

This MV is so symbolic to James... so sad =(( speedy recovery for u...

[@_Ashu092]

Yeah... And just so you know, this MV has some parts which are symbolic to other members too.

[@syimato]

I know about other members but James' story scream to me more...

[@_Ashu092]

I know what you mean... btw I was just making sure you knew about the others too.

[@syimato]

i meant i know about others' story too, so thats why i said James' story attract me the most

[@_Ashu092]

hehe I understood dear ^^

[@missmaddymad1]

I bet my dad would love this if he gave korean stuff a chance.....However, since I like kpop (and made the mistake of showing him Catallena by Orange Caramel), he won't give it a chance....

[@exolkpoptrashandsmstan2888]

Haha aww

[@catrina3909]

lmao thats why they say that when you introduce some people to kpop you need to be less intense..like one that is smooth i guess or idk but yeah ^_^

[@missmaddymad1]

Well, he was showing me a weird video so I showed him one, back! :3

[@belle3168]

lol sounds about right haha

[@natu--]

Tell him that not everything from korea is kpop and he will understand and give a chance :)

[@shambhavipande6081]

I’m pretty sure I’m going to keep coming back to this video as long as it’s here.

[@melaniedu31]

Royal Pirates is my favorite korean band along with FT.Island, I love their spirit

[@nr-dv5wk]

same !! :)

[@callmesatan913]

Omg same!!!!

[@Khadija_555]

+Melanie Park ME TOO

[@Artemisnr]

Ifkr and c. N. Blue

[@kimborassecondwife]

Only known them for like 5 minutes, but I'm already a fan

[@_Ashu092]

Welcome to the fam ^_^

[@arshiyakhan9948]

I'mnotonfire same here I just saw them now and I am like a fan

[@arshiyakhan9948]

please can u guys introduce me to this group

[@_Ashu092]

arshiya khan Hey ^^ I would be glad to do that. Let me get started with the members intro, The handsome supermodel playing Synth/Keys is James Lee (2:39) The honey dripping vocalist playing Guitar is Moon Kim (1:40) The silver blond, sexy drummer is Sooyoon whose stage name is EXSY now (0:35) hope that helped. though I'm not exactly sure of the timing. hehe :D I have been giving this same answer to whoever asked for it since the song came out. Sorry about that. PS James has to leave the band recently due to health conditions. I think you might have heard about it. but if not feel free to ask me. And would you like me to talk about their entire history? Ask me any questions you would like to know about them.

[@arshiyakhan9948]

Ashu thank u for the wonderful intro I fell for their soulful and unique songs. I heard about James 😢😢 I just wished I had come to this fandom earlier

[@snugdae]

Such a good song. Miss the old times 🥲

[@realgranolaappleraspberry8053]

Im back in here. Still wondering why did i even leave rock and emo? Wait i didnt lol! But i was so busy with Kpop and forget to listen these songs while bang ing my head. Uhhh memories

[@mayaaedits]

Still here

[@ledanre3361]

Missing them so much lately.

[@loveyouserenity]

This is by the best release from Royal Pirates in my opinion. The symbolism in this music video and the song made me tear up

[@_linggg]

IKR omg

[@nr-dv5wk]

agreed. I can't stop thinking all the challenges they went through out of this MV and song.

[@selma-95]

OH MY LORD WHAT ARE THEY TRYING TO DO TO ME? JESUS THIS IS SO GOOD AND THAT BREAK DOWN OH MY AND JAMES BE LOOKING LIKE SIWON AND THEY ALL BE LOOKING FINE AND HOT ASF AND MY HEART CANT TAKE THIS AND DID YOU REALISE HOW MANY TIMES I SAID THE WORD "AND" AND BTS AND ROYAL PIRATES RUINED MY LIFE LORD HAVE SOME MERCY!!!!

[@callmesatan913]

[@MsRandomawesome]

[@kittyklaw6]

[@mamidia1]

+Taekey DUDE I can almost see you saying that entire rant thanks to that profile pic of yours HAHAHAH best thanks for making my day :)

[@pearlsugar662]

[@yeonluv2742]

Vanessa Lai when???? OMG when?

[@_Ashu092]

+Yeon Luv They came there on 6th of this month for fanmeet. but don't worry, they said that they would be coming to Malaysia again on 31st Dec ^^

[@sashainomoto9412]

sooyoon's platinum blonde hair is probably the best

[@_Ashu092]

+sasha inomoto can't agree more. I miss his Soo Frost days...

[@tiffanylifesaver]

Ok so I had no idea who they were until I looked on Allkpop.com and saw the news about this video. OMG i'm so happy I clicked on it. I just went through all of their videos, interviews, and looked up as much info about them as I could. I'm totally in love. Why didn't I know about them before. I love korean bands. I hope they become more popular. ROYAL PIRATES FIGHTING!!!

[@neo-cb9lc]

+elf_blackjack RM Welcome to the fandom! ^^

[@tiffanylifesaver]

[@niitchi]

Yes, yes i found what I want! Korean band like this yes! Does anyone more korean bands like this??

[@thearcherayuk]

FT Island or CNblue maybe?

[@niitchi]

thearcherayuk FT Island is great but CNblue meh not my type I want bands who do songs like this!

[@salmaabcdefghijk1195]

U should definitely check out Drug Restaurant.

[@isseume]

Jaurim, Nell (even though they're a bit melancholic they have some upbeat songs), The Koxx... mostly indie bands but it's past 3 am and I can't think clearly lol

[@niitchi]

I already check out drug restaurant, they are amazing

[@twinklebee13]

If this was a Calvin Harris song it would have already gained 12 million views..this song is so good!!!!!! I have to check out these guys...they sound amazing!

[@SeoulExploration]

+twinklebee13 I know, right?

[@ChOlEy1454]

Such a catchy song! Can't believe I'm just now hearing it.

[@_Ashu092]

[@arisekraken0123]

My heart starts racing when Moon picks up his guitar ....

[@soumayajay]

the beat , the music , everything is amazing . i was needing for a song like this those days

[@wingsofshadow]

+soumaya jay IKR!? ONE OK ROCK is my most favorite band, and i hope RP will eventually gain lots of recognition worldwide like OOR has!

[@soumayajay]

phirephire the same for me ^^

[@ChiaTirri]

Still listening to this amazing song during quarantine

[@lottieisfashion]

It's so wild that moon now is really a prolific song writer

[@zuzannabrzeszczak1578]

Yes, and Sooyoon is producing for a lot of K-pop groups as well. They're all doing their own thing, I'm so proud. 💜

[@amiraalya3096]

I miss this guys. I gonna wait for a comeback for as long as it takes.

[@danaslitlist1]

we're going to miss you James, please get well and heal. Thank you very everything.

[@t_rm2119]

It's been 5 years and this song is still gold and so underrated makes me :/

[@riyamarya]

[@_Ashu092]

[@smoothie4445]

[@Rainah-eu9ow]

this song is remained as best song for band group for me

[@xtina0623]

still brought me to tears.

[@edgy_unicorn_dont_care8522]

WELL that settles it I'm now a fan of Royal Pirates. Finally decided to check them out and I have not regretted it one bit! I LOVE the strong rock influences. What's the fandom name? What are they're names? And who's who? Thankyou

[@_Ashu092]

Welcome to the crew ^_^ The handsome supermodel playing Synth/Keys is James Lee (2:39) The honey dripping vocalist playing Guitar is Moon Kim (1:40) The silver blond sexy drummer is Sooyoon whose stage name is EXSY now (0:35) hope that helped. though I'm not exactly sure of the timing. hehe :D I have been giving this same answer to whoever asked for it since the song came out. Sorry about that ;) And about the fandom name, there's nothing official yet. But fans used to refer to themselves as "Royal Treasures" once, although it's not used much these days. we are still waiting for the boys to announce something officially. hope that helped you ^^ feel free to ask more...

[@edgy_unicorn_dont_care8522]

+Ashu Thankyou! I'm really glad I found this group

[@_Ashu092]

edgy_unicorn_dont_care My pleasure ^_^ I'm glad too that our boys are gaining new fans. Their much deserved love! :D

[@jessicajoysoriano9070]

omg 😱😱 its been 2 years i dont even know the name of fandom 😢.. im so stupid but THANX.. I AM A CREW NOW AND THEN 😉

[@_Ashu092]

jessica soriano Hey ^_^ Welcome to the family. btw they don't have an official fandom name yet. but the fans are generally called a "Royal Treasure"

[@loveyouserenity]

Came back to this after reading James' recent post on instagram. He's not leaving Royal Pirates. He will forever be the best bass player in Royal Pirates. He's always going to be the one who wrote our favorite song, "Betting Everything". We're always going to remember him going to the jungle, and dancing like a maniac on a live broadcast. He WILL recover. And he WILL kick this obstacle in the ass. He's going to look at this later in life and say, "thought you had me? I wasn't done yet". We're here for you James, and we're always going to be here no matter what. This isn't a "goodbye". It's a "see you later". No matter if you're making music or not, if its 10 weeks down the road, or 10 years, we'll still be here betting everything for you to recover.

[@positivity9356]

still coming back to this song in 2020...

[@STARLIGHT-sz9pb]

急に思い出して探した😢

i miss royal pirates

[@markwilkinson7594]

Found this when I was looking for songs with the same name in kpop and this came up, I really love krock so I gave it a try so I'm gonna give it a try.

[@DJDigitalHI]

I... was totally not expecting the song to sound this way. I just assumed they amped up the teaser to be more on the electronic side... While the video is somewhat simple set wise... the way it was shot you can feel the emotion. Just awesome. Totally could cross over if they did an English version

[@kanginsoo6166]

I agree. Their english version are fantastic! They are very good in English💞 They may be the MC of Pops in Seoul or Arirang🌼🌼

[@nicolesalazar9035]

I still love this song, and i feel like i wanna run away with someone

[@nicolesalazar9035]

after a year i still love this song

[@glowlydays]

Ironically I was a royal treasure but opened the MV accidentally while searching for PTG s Runaway ... And I had never realized Moon s hyung or James smashing the guitar or every other tidbit which turned the MV so emotional ... I wanted to thank Royal Pirates again for everything they did to us. Maybe only us who were fans really knew, but they went through LOADS of sad things and still managed to be professional and gentle everytime and they deserve so much better ... I am so glad I got to follow them while they were still active, thanks chance for reminding me of what it was like and hwaiting to us all (:

[@tiramisulatte9284]

i'm waiting for the english version of this song !!!

[@theraven1212]

back to this after so long :(( this song helped me a lot through high school, miss you guys a lot!

[@meiqipoh6380]

so close to 1M !

[@KimmiiaS]

I just found this band . Already a fan ❤

[@arisekraken0123]

Welcome ... it's a difficult day for the fandom, as keyboardist/former bassist James just announced his departure from the band to focus on healing from the horrible accident he had in 2015. Please enjoy getting to know RP, even as things are changing. #RoyalPiratesFighting #ThankyouJames

[@KimmiiaS]

Arise Kraken yes I read the news on koreaboo , in fact that's how I found this band. It is really sad , I hope he will get better soon and I hope the band won't suffer from his departure and will keep releasing new songs 😢 .

[@meeko2404]

james smashing the guitar because he can't play it 😢

[@emmagarcia4185]

*bass

[@dfre4039]

what happend with he hands??

[@jiangzongzhe6488]

Oh CJane What happened?

[@ZeroXBreak]

Jiang Zongzhe He had an accident which prevents him from playing it. That's why you can see him now playing the keyboard

[@whyberealtiger]

dfre he had his hand chopped off

[@maleneolseen]

why does james lowkey look like siwon from super junior in this mv

[@simi12778]

i know! he does! (but is a good thing, both are hot)

[@ChelleyChan]

+moop doop right oh my god

[@maleneolseen]

Cam L​​ hahaha yes both are my biases so im not complaining 😍👌

[@heenim382]

+moop doop Haha I was thinking the exact same thing! I blame the sexy stubble.

[@ZanyaZalkran]

He'll low key Siwon as a tribute to him going to the military so we still havr that eye candy to drool over

[@Hiraaa]

did you guys see James's new instagram post? :( I'm crying

[@demibeans]

I'm honestly heartbroken.

[@CottidaeSEA]

His health is way more important than the band, so I'm happy he made that decision. It's a shame, but it's the better choice currently.

[@salimaumsulaymaan1156]

whut happened tho

[@EXOWAO]

This is SOOOOOOOOO GOOD. Why aren't they one of the most popular groups? Why?! They're so talented.

[@superkjkim1]

Wow watching this in 2018 and missing them so much rn

[@KimXD12]

My heart still hurts when I see James destroying the bass. Hope you will fully recover as soon as possible! Never give up and never stop believing!

[@demibeans]

I'm crying because I legit just heard about James leaving the band and about his health condition. I'm so sorry for him, and I wanted to drop by here and leave a message of support for RP and James. You will all make it through this. Find strength. Us funs will be with you.

[@17JhEsie]

They are back!! FINALLY!! Damn, I miss them!!

[@moonchildj]

i miss these fackers please come back ;w;

[@felixfreckles6329]

i'm back here again, it sucks that they are underrated i randomly saw them on simply kpop years ago and then i got hook with their song

[@Novaccino]

Firstly, I want to thank everyone for supporting our boys, Royal Pirates, through all of the rough and tough times. As a long time fan of Royal Pirates, I am feeling nothing more than heartache since James announced his departure. However, I know this will clear up in good time and I know his decision is for the best. I ask any other fans to please support him as much as you can. We all know James is an amazing guy and deserves a better life. Please give Royal Pirates and James 100% of your love and support. These amazing guys deserve so much. Should James ever see this; Thank you James for everything you have done. I will never stop looking up to you and I hope our paths will cross one day so I can tell you how much you mean to me and how much you have helped me. "Leaving now is not quitting, but redirecting my life."

[@bigbangTOPforever1]

Geez, the MV doesn't even have 1 million views. They're so talented, but also so underrated. :( More people should know about them. I'm addicted to this song!

[@_Ashu092]

+Nadia Kwon I agree with you ^^ help spread the love ♥

[@Taksxx]

Still a bop!!!!

[@hanbaebummie3215]

I miss this group!!

[@bellapar4861]

Good old times ❤️

[@KLUSTUR]

I saw these guys on ASC and the song played during it, so naturally I had to come to listen to it, and this band is fucking Godly. How is their fanbase so little? There was no hesitation for me hitting the subscribe button and checking out some of their other stuff, which is good as well.

[@evahane6713]

This song is so good! Why the hell is it so underrated?

[@eden1820]

Why is it not topping the charts? It's such a good song.

[@arisekraken0123]

Ah, my wish is coming true! SooYoon solo debut on March 14th! I love ALL of RP, but SooYoon has always been my bias, and I've always gotten a bit giddy when he's got a guitar in his hands (as much as I love him as a drummer, don't misunderstand ... he's one of my all-time favorite drummers ... but when he's singing and playing acoustic guitar, I melt....). I can't wait to see what he gives us!
