They use the exact same same choreography and drum and bugle corps for their performance on Jimmy Fallon. They perform the single in Grand Central Station and while the camera work isn't as polished as the film the performance is incredible. The Blue Devils Drum Corps from Drum Corps International (DCI) are in the video and performance. The group just won the world championship last summer and are the highest scoring team in DCI history. As a fan of DCI, seeing one of my favorite teams work with BTS has been a real treat.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels this way! Until "ON" my favorite title track BY FAR was "Fake Love". I enjoyed "Boy With Luv" and "Idol", but they just could not surpass "Fake Love" for me. Then, "ON" was released, and I was blown away! This is now my favorite title track they've released, followed closely by "Fake Love". And I feel like this is the strongest album they've ever released. I'm also concerned because I don't see how they could every surpass this performance with a traditional MV. But, I am constantly surprised and impressed so I will just sit back and wait!

They even have multiple MVs for one song (ON and BS) and they are investing so much on their artistry. They never disappoint. What a legacy.

[@sandyaz5595]

Being American, my opinion is I LOVE this song. I was in love with Black Swan, but I’m entranced with this song. The American marching band being used is such a unique idea. Love the beat, love the more prominent V vocals, and the choreo of course. The song by itself, great.

[@Dodger-un4hm]

You really have to check the album now ! :) For me, it's their best album '-'. Honeslty, it's perfectly logic that people are either loving the song or are disappointed, now that they are this mainsteam, this well-known. Some people will always have impossible expectation, and I'm sure they don't know themself what they're expecting. But with so much people who know them and so much people who will watch their next move, it's impossible to please everybody. Millions of people. Millions people with differents taste and different opinions and expectations and with different feeling towards BTS (some wait their new releases but have a negative mindset towards them who bias them and some have always positive mindset who bias them too etc...) For me, anybody can like or don't like this new song and performance but the production of this song, the execution are top notch.. For me, it's ok to not be a fan of it but impossible to be disappointed in it '-' Ow and Sope (Hobi/Suga) transitions are always the best hehe '-'

[@abbiea1237]

I really believe that the official MV will follow the inner story for each member what they dealt with to get to where they're at now! From the little glimmer of clues of it shown during performances from the final Speak Yourself Concerts in Seoul, through the vcr breaks that showed clues of what they'll be like! Jimin's part had some dancing during one part so we might see just a little bit of that, but I really believe it will be more artistically creatively done perception of what each members realm of shadows that has haunted them is like!! Maybe some scenes will have the same and or similar effects used for txt!! But since they've done the dancing to perfection already, I don't believe that would be the feature!

(That being said I have loved all of their music, am so happy for all they have achieved within the past couple years, and definitely am not saying they need to stick to one style.

I agree when you said this is their best title track. This is BTS in the purest form - confidence, pride, and 0 fear. The fact that the kinetic manifesto film is so interesting, and that I can watch it over and over and not get bored speaks volumes, because I am not someone who paid attention to dance before BTS. I'm honestly terrified about the M/V on Friday, it's gonna be on another level. Not only is this song incredible, but so is the entire album. It's their best album to date, and now I know why we had to wait 10 months for it. A lot of time and thought was put into the songs, the concepts, and judging from the On M/V, as well as Shadow, Ego, and Black Swan, the whole promotion of it. All I can say is well done to BTS, they really did that, and has only strengthened their standing as my bias group, which is now entering it's sixth year💖

So mature and really displays their growth and journey. I think many KPop fans are struggling with the transition/incorporation of the western influence. BTS is not KPop anymore. Not in the traditional sense. They have almost created their own genre. I can't say enough about this album. I'm so damn proud of them and appreciate their rawness. They never hold back from us.

I LOVED boy with luv but none of their other title tracks could top Fake Love for me, that song is just something else, but this album man, it’s amazing... the rap line KILLED it in their solo songs but I love love how well the vocal line did, they did so well on Zero o clock it’s now one of my favourite BTS songs, but we are bulletproof eternal and Vs solo make me feel some sorta way

[@tia5845]

i liked this dance film more than the actual mv tbh. kinda reminded me of the Save Me mv, which is currently my fave mv/bside, by just focusing on the choreography and stage attitude. absolutely could've done without the weird Sia collab version on the album too. whatever that was it just... ain't it.

[@porcelain04]

Honestly, I think they released this Performance FIlm because they did the exact performance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon in Grand Central Station in NYC on 24th. People saw this choreo and were anticipating the performance on television- it`s a smart move since it was a big production stage and it made an impact. They got the people hyped and then delivered.

6:50 showing us the sneaky middle-finger.

[@gfndceqmavhor354]

BTS is at another level of all kpop group.. Their production team getting higher and higher.. And esp in US.. They are so many talented production and composers.. It is great they are getting better in all aspect

[@liasori]

i really hope the “real” MV is truly as epic as we are all expecting, ngl ever since DNA their music videos haven’t been like the best yk??? like idk perhaps i rlly just miss like long ass storyline MV likes i need u , run & bs&t like just something so epic that you can ever understand it 3 years later LMAO

[@sarahkim8217]

maybe mandatory military enlistment might get in the way?? idk, ive noticed that too but maybe its a change that they wanted

[@carine1974able]

This is why K pop is so popular. The choreography that goes with it is absolutely amazing. As a child in the 80's I used to watch Solid Gold. It was a variety show with dancing and singing. I loved it. There's just not anything that compares to Korea in the rest of the world now when it comes to choreographing their songs. And as for making a great music video, dancing just makes it so much better. Obviously not all over the video, but there's nothing that pulls me in more than great choreography. But that's just me. And you have to be good to blend the choreography with the song. It's a skill that I think people lack and probably avoid it as a result.

I love on and I love the manifesto mv, my jaw fell to the floor. I also really love the representation in the video, it's so natural and nonforced

[@glassary]

PD you need to see the behind the scenes rehearsal video of just BTS without the dancers etc. You can see the drones flying all over. Also this dance version was the one done on Fallon.

[@ghuleh969]

I still can't believe Hoseok being main dancer had only 4 sec of dance break, that's my only complain

[@ignaciopazgarcia5370]

Yes that i thing that i have noticed... Like Jimin and j-hope are the two main dancers but jimin has almost double the time in the front (and this song is not the o ly one) . And this type of dance is perfect for jhope. Probably cuz he dosent sing here and most of the slmg and chorus is by the vocal Line

[@rmula5335]

I agree with your comment of Boy With Luv being an experiment. And yes, ON does set in the middle extremely well.

[@nineplustentwentyone26]

This song and their new album changed me from an ex-ARMY to an ARMY :) I'm glad that they have such a wonderful title track like ON.. it sounds great! 🥰

[@ayeshahmocd6917]

Wondering why did you become ex

[@nineplustentwentyone26]

@@ayeshahmocd6917 ahh.. there are many reasons actually and I'm not comfortable saying it because I will definitely get backlash if I do...

[@ayeshahmocd6917]

@@nineplustentwentyone26 Glad that now you become re-Army:). JUst remember what Namjoon said in his UN speech that he admited what he did wrong in the past. Truly adore him for have the guts of admitting mistakes, because only strong can do that. Now they are growing and mature young men

@@ayeshahmocd6917 ahhh yes.. even though I'm an ex-ARMY I'm always connected with them because they have a special place in my heart ^-^ But thanks for the reminder my dear! ❤🥰

[@anitayuliantirinaldi]

Same, i joined the fandom in fake love era. I love BWL era, but due to many circumstances i couldn't enjoy it that much. I'm hyping this one. When shadow and black swan first came out, i was very emotional. The lyrics really hit me. I could feel the pain. And now i come back as a loyal fans.

[@bluemin939]

honestly out of all youtubers out there, your reaction video was the only video i was waiting for.....you don't sugarcoat and most importantly, you really knows what to say....you know what you're doing and you're doing it as how it should be done

[@sweetpotato6801]

5:19 its a gospel choir ;)

[@sweet_sugary]

MOTS 7 is BTS best album, hands down! Not only critics are very positive, but the fans too! I love it, can't choose a favorite track

[@davidpt]

Yooo PD has been AT IT full force, so many videos coming out, I appreciate

[@lunacraftcrochet]

Not to be weird but I really like how you enunciate your words.

[@tamarlevy5949]

i love how you call hobi (jhope) hope it's really adorable ;A;

[@ajlovesyou2060]

You were the best reactor for this video. You understood its essence and the creativity of the music film and you are getting me SO hyped up for their official MV. I haven’t been this excited for a BTS comeback since Fake Love. Thank you so much for your reaction!

[@misswyte1651]

Its one of my fav title tracks too and I love their constant change of genres, I think it really speak to the creative and indivividual drive of bts

[@Taylor-dn7pi]

That is one of my favorite things about BTS their constant experimentation with their sound. I know some people and or artists find it risky to try new things but I love that BTS constantly evolves and challenges themselves to new things. To me, it's exciting because you never know what you are going to get and given that I love pretty much all genres of music they can never steer me wrong.

[@peachbIush]

I so agree with you that this was one of Hoseok's best verses!!!!

[@nobody-rw6ep]

the dances/choreo in the film are the same as how their promoting it ! it was shown of the jimmy fallon show :))

[@jeonshayronbts8946]

Boy with luv definitely hitted the mark it was one of the top in the americas its awesome ✨️✨️✨️

[@alodiaexe]

tae and jimin were wearing all white for a reason. at 6:18 if you look at their formation, it looks lika a snake. tae and jimin are the fangs! thank you for reacting to ON💜 please react to txt's magic island mv i've been requesting this for awhile and i won't stop until you react to it😂

[@raquelalmeida8536]

them filming in the afternoon with such contrast of the sun contributes to the sharpness of the member's and the dancer's shadows on the ground. i think thats a very interesting choice indeed 💘💕💞
