THIS IS BTS | Introduction to BTS | WOW They Are Huge! |

[@Kazilla.]

Some of the ARMY was saying they couldn’t hear sometimes when I talk over the audio so I will try and fix that for my next videos!

[@loredell]

You doing fine on my end. You are really a nice man, keep going! ^^

[@aishu_k02]

12:28 Now BTS became 5 times Grammy nominated Artist and group members RM,SUGA and JHOPE became grammy nominated songwriters as well!!

[@Kazilla.]

That is huge!

[@seec4856]

I'm 62 years old ARMY from Canada. I have been listening to music my whole life but I have never felt so connected to any artists before. These 7 young men are so talented, humble, kind and inspiring. Their music is so good. I just love them so much.

[@melaniethomas7335]

Their latest song "RUN BTS" has a crazy performance and sound if u wanna check that too please react to the RUN BTS lyrics, RUN BTS live performance at Busan concert and RUN BTS dance practice (the choreography is fire)!!💜

[@anu5880]

Actually ppl do see the hardwork that they put in. BTS is usually very open abt their feelings and emotions and most of their journey has been documented for the world to see. They release 'behind the scenes' videos and other contents and their sincerity in doing all this is a major reason for them having such a huge following

[@Kazilla.]

Well that’s good it doesn’t go unnoticed!

[@aussiemandy]

Yes, the fact that they do share the “warts and all” of the hard work, is one of the major differences between BTS and others. Not dismissing their music, dance, art etc the fact that Army actually know them makes the bond forever!

[@pumpkinsandme6238]

Their behind the scenes movies have made me cry. They go on stage and dance even when in agony. The cry back stage when they didnt dance well enough. They collapse to the ground when the stage lift lowers and gasp for air from oxygen cylinders. It's heartbreaking

[@zsjm]

This comment might be late for you to read but here goes nothing. I’m 26 years old and I can’t even express properly how much they’ve helped me. Their music is serious business for them. They’re genuinely PASSIONATE about it. And for them, their music is the perfect way to express themselves and talk about whatever they want: one’s identity, mental health, societal pressure, feeling lost, life, love, literally everything. And I promise you, if you listen to them seriously and with an open mind, you’ll realize how humble and real they are. How much you’ll feel understood by them. When I became a fan years ago, it was crazy for me to realize that worldwide celebrities face the same issues as me (that might’ve sound like a cliché, but the DEPTH of their lyrics sometimes is CRAZY)… that despite their “status”, we’re all the same. We all feel the same. I’ve never felt this way before towards other artists and I listen to a lot of music and genres. I think that’s why people love them so much. You can feel how real and humble they are through their art. Hope you enjoy this journey!

[@itsbonniefay2417]

The video called "A Guide to BTS Members: The Bangtan 7" by Taylor is a really good video as well. Whilr this video you watched focused on the group, the guide by Taylor will introduce you to the individual members, the fandom, their growth, accomplishments, and much more!

[@andriaciel5468]

You really can't go wrong with any part of their 300+ discography. They release songs as a group, as well as having solo projects and subunits such as the rap line or the vocal line. All their studio albums are are really impressive, but personally, I think the live versions are even better. You'll probably appreciate their MV's. They are mini movies. I really, really enjoy your comments, and just your general life outlook and vibe. I hope you keep sharing yourself and your beautiful Himalayans!💜 Side note: some of their songs are steeped in cultural references. While the songs stand just fine on their own, there are explanation videos for us foreigners that deeply enriched my experience, and helped me to truly appreciate the genius of the lyrics, especially the rap songs, with their double and triple entendres.

[@Kazilla.]

Wow that’s a huge catalog! Aww thanks yeah I will keep sharing for sure and try to make more content and get to all the videos for everyone.

[@melaniethomas7335]

If you want to check them live and how their sound is in general, they have a live where they sing some parts of some of their songs, it's called: "BTS ROOM LIVE FESTA 2021"💜

Loving your journey down the BTS Rabbit Hole. I like how you get BTS. You're a natural ARMY. I'm a 62 yr old Army and BTS makes me feel young and current. They are literally a fountain of youth for us old guys. Keep reaching, I'll keep watching. React to, ' A Guide to BTS' by Taylor, if you want to learn more about each individual member and how they formed the group. If you want to see some incredible dancing, the best M/V for that is, 'ON', Kinetic Manifesto Film: Come Prima. One of the best and most recent live dance performance is 'Run BTS Dance Practice.'

[@Kazilla.]

I will have to! Many people are mentioning that one, thanks for watching!

As a fan of many groups I've never seen such an engagement with fans as bts has. its amazing. loved your reaction!

[@Kazilla.]

Yeah I can already tell how huge their fan base is just from you guys! Very welcoming

[@kara-karina8530]

One of the more intriguing things about BTS that they feed ARMY so so well with content, there are countless of hours of content out there, just their variety show Run BTS has 155+ episode (it's hilarious by the way), and there are travelling shows, staycations, BTS bombs of behind the scenes for their MVs, and yet, the guys are super private. Apart from showing what they advertise we don't know much about their houses, cars or any type of partners. All you will find is rumours. ARMY, most of us at least, try to respect their privacy and trust them to behave correctly, and they never disappoint. It also helps that their company always prosecutes those who act maliciously towards them. There is tons of fan made content about them, there is even a very well done professionally made by a fan series of documentaries Rise of Bangtan. To date it's the most comprehensive and insightful look into BTS. Don't know which song to recommend. They are too versatile. Try the Festa 2021 first and see what songs you want to dive into after listening to all the snippets. Over 400+ songs and they don't have a bad one 💜

[@Kazilla.]

Looks like I’ll have to get to covering some!

[@itsbonniefay2417]

BTS makes these power moves because it's what they stand for, sincerity, love and helping others less fortunate. Some of the member grew up struggling financially, I mean it wasn't an easy journey for any of them really. They dedicated themselves to their group, their music, and their fans for so many years and in the beginning they weren't sure they would make it. They know what it's like and they always talk about giving back, mostly about their fans who got them to where they are today. It's always been hardwork and perseverance for BTS and I really admire them and look up to them for those things and many more reasons. 💜

[@Kazilla.]

Yeah it’s not a group it’s a movement!

[@itsbonniefay2417]

24:03 they don't and haven't show us everything behind the scenes, their blood sweat and tears. Usually we just see the end product like the music or live preformance or concert. However, there are a lot of times that they DO show us, they spend a lot of time in a front of a camera and have shown us their journey and processes often. If it's not physically on video they talk about it with us on live streams or chat with us on their own app Weverse. They really endorse connection between artist and fans. It's a close connection, we feel like we've gone on this journey ourselves. I think that's why a lot of people say they love BTS for their sincerity. BTS themselves picture BTS and ARMY walking up this mountain holding hands, the member Suga said those in a concert years ago. I feel like a lot of people would agree that we feel close to them because we can try to understand and relate to the members. Honestly I feel like I have a one-sided friendship with BTS, but in a positive way. I can't imagine how ARMY who knew them since 2013 feel if I feel this way because I've only been ARMY since 2018. Anyways, that was long, thank you so much for your own sincerity, you seem like a down to earth guy who's attentive, caring, honest, and genuine. We purple you 💜

[@MyBrown50]

I enjoyed your reaction I am 64 my granddaughters introduced me to BTS. My daughter and granddaughters we all travel together to see them when they have concerts in USA. They have strengthened the bond between us and their music and work ethic has much influence on my granddaughters so much that their management on their jobs has complimented them. The song Dope inspired them to do better in school and they graduated with high honors. As for myself the song Epiphany showed me that I needed to work on loving myself. Their music will inspire you to be the best version of yourself. Looking forward to your journey 💜

[@Kazilla.]

Oh wow that sounds so awesome! The whole fam involved 😊

[@jessicaelle0988]

I really liked your reaction and what you had to say about them. I just wanted to say that oustider people might only see the glamorous side of their celebrity life but not ARMY : one of the things that made me become an fan is the connexion there is between BTS and Armys, they don't share everything of course, but they share so much of their lives, joys and struggles. They don't hesitate to speak about their mental health states or how exhausted they can be at times, weither it's in their music or in lives streamings where they chat with the fans. It's a bond I've nerver see in any other fandom. When the video said they started a campaign called 'Love Yourself' with Unicef, it wasn't just a random title they chose because it sounded nice : they really went through it all with us and shared the process of how we could acheive loving ourselves together. They are the representation of hard work and determination: they never fail to thank the fans for their support but we know how hard they've worked behind the scene to get to this level. They are not perfect but they are humble, funny and genuine, just as they were in their debut 10 years ago ^^ i really hope you'll react to more BTS 🤗

[@libby5409]

You are absolutely correct about Bang Shihyuk being like a father figure who wants only the best for the boys. You will see him mentioned as Bang PD or Bang PD-nim (meaning producer {PD) and nim is a term of respect). BTS would not be BTS without Bang PD. I hope you take the time to watch a few of the other guides, such as the one put together this year by Taylor. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqa5kKx_md2Nhrs Enjoy your journey. I've only been following them since Fall 2018. The more we learn, the more we admire and love these guys, and our fellow ARMYs.

[@arisol1011]

Unlike western artists that don't show their struggles and hard work, BTS lay it out bare. They open up to armies all the time with content for us that show the realities of qhat they go through- not all bad of course They have Burn the Stage which is a docuseries that goes on tour with them and shows their preparations for their concerts, the difficulties they face and mental hardships They pretty much have a camera on them 24/7 following them everywhere they go- these docuseries really show you how much they put into their performances( pretty much collapsing backstage or fainting from overworking or needing oxygen) Bring The Soul is the same type of docuseries and Break The Silence as well. They wanted to show their fans that they do argue and have tough times. They have Bangtan Bombs which are clips and behind the scenes content Bon voyage which is basically vlogging as they go for trips around the world together as a group and have a budget and have to make decisions on their own and VLIVE which is a live streaming platform where they connect with fans live to talk about their thoughts . So they do their best to share as much as they can with Armies about their lives.

[@Kazilla.]

Yeah they lay it out on the table. And wow that’s cool to have a streaming platform

you can react to "A guide to BTS: bangtan 7 by Taylor" and also "Who is bts Army" by Taylor. Songs - Mic drop, ON, Black swan, Idol, Blood sweat and tears(These songs are just for the beginning) Rap line - Ddaeng, UGH, Cypher pt1-pt4 Vocal line - Truth untold, House of cards And there are more, Magic shop, life goes on, Save me, Fake love, Home, Dope, Make it right, Not today, Fire, Spring day, So what, Permission to dance, Dynamit, Butter I'm sorry I went blank.. There are a lot of songs..

Thank you for trying to understand more about BTS, we are so excited to start this journey with you. And I really appreciate how you share your thoughts about them. While XCeleste video gives a great introduction to the group, I recommend you to also watch introduction to BTS by Taylor to know more about them individually :) As many have commented, Festa Room Live shows some snippet of their songs from past to recent, so it will be a good live performance to introduce you to their music. btw, your cat are so cute :)

BTS is the biggest band in the world since 2020, grammys labeld them as "the biggest pop boy band on the planet"✌️💜

[@heyrobwest3908]

BTS has over 350 release publish songs! Probably another 150 to 200 unreleased songs! Like the video said they debuted on June 13th, 2013, so on June 13th, 2022, they celebrated 9 years as a group after debut. But the first member of BTS REM who is the main rapper and leader of BTS. Find with big hit entertainment now known as HYBE labels corporation back in 2009/10. From then until 2013 when they debuted as a group each member auditioned separately and was signed to big hit entertainment. Then they all went through periods of training improving their singing and rapping skills and other aspects like dancing and performing. This is basically the routine that all K pop route go through it's the way the Korean music industry works. one member was in college studying to be an actor. He was spotted by a big hit talent scout as he was getting off of a bus. Based on his looks alone they asked him to come to their office and audition. Really don't know what type of audition he could have done because he wasn't a singer, and he wasn't a dancer he was training to be an actor. He actually auditioned as an actor. They saw his potential though and he started from zero and learned to sing and dance. Now he is said to have a silver voice. Another member started as a street dancer when he was 10 years old his background and career aspirations were to be a dancer. You assigned on as a dancer choreographer became the dance leader of BTS. He had no real background in the music industry but now he is a lead rapper and a sub vocalist singing and rapping. One member had aspirations of becoming a singer musician and entertainer. But his family were poor farmers! One day being a good friend, he accompanied a friend two auditions being held buy big hit entertainment in their hometown. When a member of big hit staff saw him based on only his looks, they encouraged him to audition also. So, he agreed to and he Fang rat danced play the saxophone and did some acting. A few days later he got a phone call and discovered that he was the only one from the auditions there had moved on to the next level of semifinal auditions. Not even his friend that he had originally accompanied had made it through the auditions!

You can’t go wrong with any of their music. The entire group is amazing and the vocal line is out of this world but if you are more into rap/hip hop maybe start with Mic Drop or rapline (Ugh, Ddaeng, Cyphers pt1-4, Tear). They are even better live and choreo is always amazing💜 There MV are always stunning and so well thought out.

[@itsbonniefay2417]

If you want to dive into their discography but don't know where to start I recommend the video "BTS Festa 2021" it's a live preformance of multiple of their songs, kind of like the tiny desk concert, but it goes by album from their early days to recent releases. They preform a snippet of a song and mix it all together. I recommend this to you so you can see their diverse discography without truly spoiling the songs, since it's only a snippet. They make music of many genres, from pop to EDM to rap to Latin pop... they really like to explore their sound and not stick to one thing.

Rolling Stone had a pretty solid list of their top 100 BTS songs. BTS as you are seeing is different and so much more then just musicians. The way they do things is completely different from what artists do here in the USA.

[@megapuspitap]

Early songs I recommend : N.O, No More Dream, Dope (more to hip hop i guess) Mid : Mic Drop ( EDM ), Fake Love , Blood Sweat an Tears, IDOL ( all three have deep meaning in their MV) Spring day (watch the MV), Latest: ON (kinetic manifesto film) this is with single take filming n heavy dance, Black Swan , Run BTS, Yet to Come Live Performance i really recommend BTS MMA 2018 n 2019, you will see how they put huge efforts even only to perform in music award show. N their latest concert on october 2022 BTS Yet to Come in Busan. This concert was kinda farewell party to Army as they are going for mandatory military service, an temporarily they will not work as a group n more focus on solo work till to reunite again in 2025 after completing the duty. The concert with 100,000 tickects was free concert n it was my first ever BTS concert. I wish you can watch n react to it as well. Thanks for the reaction~~~

Yo bro. I’m 44 year old father and ARMY here in Orange County, Cali. Represent. Bro. You love rap. What got me interested in them was “mic drop”. Sick dancing and dope rap style you will enjoy.

Love your positive attitude and keeping it professional and clean. I’m a musician as well.

[@msmichellewinchester]

As for the Grammys, they have five nominations so far. Two from previous years and now for this Grammy they got three: The Best Music Video for Yet to Come and then two with Coldplay - Pop Duo/Group Performance for My Universe and Album of the Year as part of Coldplay's Music of the Spheres (plus for that album, the rappes in BTS are listed individually too, as they contributed with lyrics).

[@debhouckscraftycottage]

The introductory video by Taylor goes into the 7 members and what they are most known for. For music videos to start with, I'd suggest Mic Drop, Black Swan, and Fake Love, but there are so, so many more. A more recent song called "Run BTS" is a favorite of mine, but there is no MV for that. There is a Live of Mic Drop and Run BTS together on BangtanTV channel, and then recently on same channel the dance practice video was posted. I think better to start with MV's with English subs turned on before going to the lives.

[@debbiemoodenbaugh9883]

Congratulations for a job well done! I do commend you for going right into the heart of BTS and that is delving right from the beginning.

They did a collab with Coldplay, watch the video, "My Universe". They each have their own projects too. BTS performances at the Grammys & the MMA lives are great!

[@cynthiaperez2232]

So you know ... Record Labels in the US are not comparable to Entertainment Companies in Korea. Entertainment companies have an enormous staff (by Western standards) that include producers, composers, stylists, trainers, choreographers, clerical staff, etc. I remember in 2017 when BTS first went to the BBMAs, backstage staff were amazed at their entourage. (Big Hit, a small co, at that time, closed shop and brought all the staff (35 or so) to the US to support the boys. In fact, in Kpop, artists might train under the company for years before they get to debut.

[@Kazilla.]

Yeh I have no idea about record labels out there! That sounds super interesting though

[@rizahdetorres7585]

they even thought of disbanding during that time when they were receiving backlash from other people. they suffered from depression because of that. but when they realized so many armys love them dearly, they immediately wanted to perform for us. we are their strength and they are our strength. there is also another good video to watch in your free time..bts from nobodies to legends. thank you for this reaction..when youre done reacting to their docus youll be amazed of all their video performances such as music videos, dance practices and live concerts

Honestly the best way to get to know bts journey is from "the rise of bangtan" there's lots of episodes and it takes a while to finish it, but it's really informative and interesting, it's also really emotional. It's literally like a documentary of their lives

[@pishop.ot7692]

Honestly I understood exactly what you meant in last video. But i know why people got upset too. You must understand how exhausted ARMYs are by every other new person or media people througing a narrative of fans being teenage girls. It is just too much and far from truth. ARMYs and BTS are being radicalized a lot just bcs they r "boy band" and fandom being majorly females

[@setofreakinkaiba8553]

Once u watch their story and get their individual selves figured out, you should start with songs that show how versatile they are. Maybe a song from each genre? I would start with trying to learn their names. For me what helped was pointing out features that stick out of each member and attributing it to them. RM is easy to point out. He is fluent in english and a leader/rapper. He is hard to miss. Jimin is very feminine looking and his voice is soft and somewhat feminine. Very angelic. Jhope has a longer face and always has a smile to his face. His laugh is so noticeble and he is a great dancer/rapper/singer. Suga is quiet and intimidating but he is sweet. V's smile is rectangled and his voice is quite deep. Jin is handsome and he isn't afraid to say so. Jungkook is lead vocalist his eyes are big and he has a beautiful voice that also sounds angelic but very different from Jimin's. Those were a few things that helped me in my journey of getting familiar with Bts. I hope they were at least a bit helpful.

[@Kazilla.]

It’s so cool that they have so much where you can go down different lanes with them

[@Zoeeshay98]

It’s good to start with a guide. The best one I’ve seen is “A Guide to BTS: Bangtan 7” by Taylor. It’s long but we will gladly sit and watch it. It’ll give you a deeper dive into how the group was formed and also each individual members and their role. All of the music used in the video is their own music as well. For song recommendations I’ll recommend the most popular as their discography is 300+ songs and no 2 are alike. They’ve hit almost every genre so it just depends on what you like. -Blood Sweat and Tears -Magic Shop live performance (the English subs are there) -Fire -Run BTS Live in Busan -Dope -Idol -On -Mic Drop I also highly recommend live performance since they’re on another level -MMA 2019 -MMA 2018 -medley at the Tokyo dome

[@msmichellewinchester]

We see the hard work, because they show us. Obviously not all of it and they were also very open about the fact that they can't tell us everything, but they share what they can, including the hard parts. On the other hand, the glamour part... they don't really get into that much. They obviously have a lot of money and fame and they don't hide that necessarily, but they also don't flaunt that very much. If they do show off something that costs a lot of money, it's usually just because they're excited about it. It's like when you buy something that makes you happy and you can't wait to show it to others. But then you see Jungkook having his phone patched up with a ducktape because he doesn't want to get a new one or you see them cheating and betraying each other in games for a bag of cheap chips 😂. When you talked about how people see the glamour and not the hard work, it actually made me think and I was surprised myself that I struggled to remember when they actually showed us the glamour part aside from maybe like tv appearances where they put on a serious face (most of the time at least 😆). I think it's part of why people love them so much. A lot of big celebrities can struggle with relating to other people, because they are removed from reality. BTS managed to keep themselves down to earth and never forgot where they came from and how much they struggled to get what they have now. We hear from backup dancers and staff and other people that worked with them how much they put into their work and how humble they are in real life. That they still practice over and over so every aspect of the performance is perfect and even sometimes stay behind after other people leave to practice more.

It's a nice choice to check their dance, rap and vocal!

Since you’re an actor, you may be interested in learning about the BU (Bangtan Universe), which is a storyline that runs through various sources like select MVs, etc. I also saw that folks have already suggested A Guide to BTS by Taylor which is, indeed, a great source to learn about the seven members in more detail. And watching any live performance from one of their concerts is a real treat - especially their latest one which is Yet To Come concert in Busan.

Thanks! Yeah it looks like that is the thing to cover soon. 🙏🏻

[@gabrielablanco707]

Thanks for the respect. And thanks for your reactions. Greetings from Argentina

[@lauren0047]

A guide to bts: bangtan 7 by taylor next! 🥰

[@RLC63]

Very much enjoyed, thank U! 🤍 BTS 🎶🎵 Can't wait for more. Until then happiness ☮🌸 be well.

[@anushkamaharaj9941]

Their discography is insane with different genres. But since you said you're partial to rap/rnb, then you can try the Cyphers (1-4), Tear, UGH, Ddaeng, or any of RM, Agust D (Suga) and J-Hope's solo albums/mixtapes. For rnb, a lot of their earlier songs have that influence, eg. House of Cards, Tomorrow, Hold Me Tight. Stigma, Singularity, Serendipity, Home, My Time (the last 5 are member's solo songs)

[@wilisyulianita3983]

Trust me, we always welcome everybody to watch our journey and if you like, you can join too😁

[@nnn11230]

Hey! I really liked your reaction, glad you have enjoyed what you've watched so far. If you want even a bit more of context just before you dive in their music, i'd suggest you check out too the video "The Most Beautiful Life Goes On: The Story of BTS (2022 update)", by the Rice Squad. They give a bit of info about the members backgrounds and provide a general overview of their career and discography so far (without spoilers), and i think it's great as an introduction before going deeper into the rabbit hole!! :D

[@GoodEggs]

Oh im glad a new bts reac THATS A PERFECT CAT RIGHT THERE PLEASE KISS THAT CAT FOR ME

[@dreamgloww6650]

tuank you for watching this intro. theres a new guide for BTS and delves into each member. for songs, i suggest you watch Mic Drop, Blood Sweat & Tears, Black Swan, Fake Love, ON, Spring Day, Save Me, Your Eyes Tell, RUN BTS ( the song) . if its possible you can watch the MV then watch a live performance and the behind the scenes after. i personally wouldnt mind a longer video reaction. But most importantly, please you enjoy your BTS journey!! 💜

[@janshi876]

Crazy how much you understood cuz you know the entertainment industry. It was great hearing you connect dots that many people don’t often get right off the bat.

[@mjn4589]

Hello, glad you did that one first because it is a nice resume of who is BTS and it is not too overwhelming considering you have only watched their tiny desk concert. BTS can't be dissociated from Army. They both grow together and support each others. We are living in a social media Era and BTS has been clever to communicate though those media to get close with their fans. Because as it is said in the documentary big medias like TV shows and even radio didn't/still don't support BTS, it is even more accurate outside of Korea. That's why lot of non korean nowadays don't understand why BTS is so huge without TV Time and radio Time. And the majority of this people who don't understand this success won't try to make some research of course. But it is not difficult to do, see you ve just watched one of BTS guide and you already start to understand why they are so big. People need to be more open minded, bit curious and not just with prejudices about BTS : oh it is a boy band for young screaming girls it is not for me. I don't know if you wanna hear more of their work first before deep diving into their personality, their achievements... You need to do your own pace even if you asked for contents to watch at some points you won't be able to satisfy everybody needs. So if you feel to listen to more of their work i am sure some Army will or gave you already a list. If you prefer to know them better first free to you to keep watching some BTS guides (Taylor's one or Xceleste's one). Don't rush they have years of contents !!!! Don't go BTS' burnout 😅 Army is here to guide you through this journey so keep enjoying. Also i like the fact that you put your own imputs from your personal experience in the entertaining/movie industry. In a way it shows that you genuinly understand what they are going through. Ty 💜

[@tvharft4772]

Welcome to BTS world Journey💜I’m sure you will like it💜💜💜

[@user-oh8mc2xq2p]

They are currently working solo, I recommend Jimin's solos

[@rebeccabuxton1324]

Taylor's guide goes into the individuals more, how they joined and their talents. There are so many good songs but I agree with another comment that festa Room Live 2021 is a good start as it is a medley of sections of B side songs through the years and showcases their diverse music. Loved your first 2 reactions to BTS and can't wait fir more. 50 year old ARMY from UK here. 💜

[@capitxn910]

It's not the fame or money ... personally for me(I am 32 years old) it is their lyrics and how they communicate with everyone. Although they have the fame and the money, they don't show it, they aren't like other musicians!

[@paulatate1320]

Hi. I appreciate your acknowledgement of the age thing. I made one of those comments. I admire your willingness to head dive into the rabbit hole. You won't regret it. BTS currently have 6 music videos with over a billion views with a 7th closing in. V (Kim Taehyung) acted in Hwarang, a period piece K-drama in 2015. He and Jin did a duet for the OST. Since you are an actor, I thought I would mention it. I have subscribed and I am looking forward to a lot more reactions. 💜

[@maryannbaxter73]

I love this intro. I also recomend the one by Taylor. Watching this guide will help you a lot to know them better and understand their journey. If you like to learn more about their individual talents and background, the Taylor´s guide is fantastic. BTS has many behind the scenes videos, shows, streams and that´s why tehy connected so much with ARMY. We have seen their hard work and struggles. There is a movie or documentary called Burn the stage, another called The Rise of Bangtan where you can see their hard work. They are such an inspiration. An I love them cause they are such performers but also so much funny, too.

[@lorismith5195]

It’s said you find BTS when you need them. And many people will share stories about where they were in life when the music came along. The stories are so touching.

[@Kazilla.]

Wow that’s deep

[@zahirahiman3302]

istg you must see their life performance like "epilogue japan attack on bangtan and boyz with fun live" " ma city live performance" " medley cypher live " istg this one is one of their best rap performance.There is so much more but im just gonna list this for now.

[@msmichellewinchester]

It's kind of crazy that this video is I think like two or three years old, so if you think they're big after watching this, rest assured that this is nothing 😆. I'm sure, people have been recommending it left and right, but A Guide to BTS Members: The Bangtan 7 by Taylor is probably the most up to date as of May of this year and even since that video there have been huge things happening. Still, I highly recommend that video. It focuses on the individual members and is more in depth. It's a bit longer, but it's definitely worth it and it might give you tips on what to watch next. Or based on your reaction what to recommend you next 💜

[@loftyradish6972]

The Intro to BTS by Taylor is great, just be aware since it was released,j-Hope has released a new solo album thatis f*cking incredible. Its a mix of old-school rap and rock, he headlined Lolepalooza with it and it was such an incredible performance.

[@jesshrm1]

Enjoyed your reactions, thank you~

[@iamme1566]

Just found your channel. I found BTS in my 30s. I’m now in my 40s. I’ve travelled the world for their concerts and every time it’s like a festival. Lots of love and kindness all around. You need an open mind to appreciate BTS, their musicality, lyricism, multi-lingual wordplay and philosophy. BTS have enriched many lives. I hope they help you be better and feel happier like they do for us all.

[@yhj4574]

Thank you!! send love from korea🥰😘❤ 앞으로 잘부탁드립니다!!

[@Whalien_52]

Yes 🤩 an hour ago I commented that I hope you start your journey 🙊🔥 and here we go. I am absolutely here for it 💜

[@Kazilla.]

Why thank you haha well I guess you’ll be here for it. Definitely going to do some more content 🙂

[@noelamini7350]

😅In case you are wondering why you are being bombarded by purple hearts it is because purple is an intimate color between BTS and ARMY. It's like the theme color of this fandom and Artist. 💜

[@Kazilla.]

Yes they army has said that haha

[@advaitham98]

I am really happy that you reacted to this..but I think The Introduction video by Taylor is much more detailed . Hope you will watch it when you have time. It will give you very deep understanding about each members.☺️..Now I am waiting for the next one and congratulations for the growth of the channel.. I believe you got more subscribers not just becoz you reacted to BTS but because you are genuine and you give sincere reactions... ❤️ Let's go together in this journey..💜

[@crushedflora2696]

Jin explained (while tipsy) how their group works is b/c everyone puts their ego to the side if the decision is not best for the group. If there's a song/dance they've been working on, they have solo projects they release. Their journey is so authentically well documented by themselves and the company, they allow us to hear and see their mental/physical struggles. Jin even explained on a recent Live the complicated decisions, feelings, and backlash they had on postponing enlisting in the military, although the company didn't want him say anything.

[@Kazilla.]

Damn, that’s crazy though, having to serve

[@aviewer9516]

You seem like a credible reactor who is not just doing BTS review for JUST views, people appreciate that, particularly ARMY. By the way, your cat is adorable!

[@che2933]

Keep going fr 65yo👏🤩 ArmyOT7💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@MinSugaCheonjae]

A big part of why we as fans feel emotionally attached to them is their genuineness. They share their feelings, good or bad, with us. They are kind, respectful and self-aware. It's not a stretch to say that they are my role models. They have inspired me in more ways than one. I have learnt to treat myself and others better because of them and their music.

[@megapuspitap]

When later you react to their video n MV dont forget to activate the subtitle

[@melaniethomas7335]

Yess very important

[@melaniethomas7335]

Here is some of the songs I like by BTS if you wanna react to it: "Run", "Save Me", "Black Swan", "DNA", "ON kinetic manifesto film", "I need you", "Butter", "Make it right" 💜

[@totchi6]

I was gonna subscribe because you really do have open-minded and insightful reactions so far, but I usually wait for the third bts reaction to be sure....then you held up a cat, said you had two and I hit the button 🤣🤣🤣

[@Kazilla.]

Hahah that’s amazing! Thanks 😻😊 well I will definitely be doing another one so, thanks for watching and subbing!

[@Juliapak]

BTS!!

[@daiana6597]

Hola, me encantó tu reacción. Yo sigo a BTS desde que debutaron en el 2013, recuerdo que en aquel momento en Corea no eran tan conocidos, en ese momento el grupo mas popular se llamaba EXO y ellos abarcaban todo el espacio televisivo en Corea, shows, etc (exo pertenece a una empresa llamada SM es una de las empresas grandes que lleva muchos años en la industria) y como BTS era de una empresa pequeña nadie los tomaba en cuenta. De igual forma BTS logró abrirse paso para ser lo que es hoy en día, puedo decirte con total sinceridad que lo que a mi me cautivó de ellos fue su humildad y personalidad, el acercamiento con el fan a traves de las aplicaciones o contenido en youtube es lo que me gustó. En Corea es muy normal que los artistas socialicen y se acerquen mas a los fans con toda clase de contenido. Creo que en occidente no existe eso, acá los artistas muchas veces despues de hacer dinero se olvidan de quienes los llevaron arriba. Como decía, BTS es mucho mas que un simple grupo de musica, son inspiración para muchos, son ejemplos de personas. Jamás creí que esos chicos que vi una vez, a los que todos ignoraban lograran tantas cosas como abrir la ceremonia de un mundial, de verdad jamas me imaginé esto. Con esto demuestran que son el claro ejemplo de que si haces las cosas bien la vida puede premiarte. Fueron ellos lo que se ganaron el cariño y amor de la gente. En fin, me encataria que sigas reaccionando y conociendolos, te sorprenderas de ver todo lo que conforma a BTS. Saludos desde Argentina

[@yesenia23526]

Que bellas y emotivas palabras... Saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱✌️💜

[@Livfast146]

Oh... You just met them and they need go to the obligatory military service in South Korea... The first member go the 13/12 of this year, and comeback in 2024 :( They are going to enter military service because of their ages, so the minors They're going into military service because of their ages, so The youngest wait and while they continue their careers as soloists. They comecack as a group in 2025... But there are a variety of things that can be seen about them, for example, their reality shows, performances, theories, music videos and of course their variety show called RUN BTS, it's legend.... Sorry for my english, but i really wanna say this

[@mae__]

Hey thanks here for the reaction!! Appreciate the open-mindedness here! If you like Harry Mack then you can ease your way into BTS with songs from the rappers! Maybe start off with their Outro:Tear performance in Wembley (version with eng subs) Or more recent "Ugh" and "Cypher pt.3" performance live in their Yet to Come concert in Busan (the channel Enjoy BTS More provides videos of these performances with captions). They performed both songs back to back so would suggest to check out the ugh and Cypher 3 back to back as well for this specific performance. The energy is mad. For a more general introduction to BTS I'd recommend: - Taylor guide to BTS (get background info on each of them) - "Run BTS" live performance in Busan up on their Bangtantv KZbin channel. I think this song encapsulates the essence of BTS quite well (from the lyrics to the music to the performance aspect) and it's recent -Festa 2021 Room live : it's a medley that brushes through their catalog chronologically in 10 min, fun watch and you get just a glimpse of their evolution and diversity of genres. If you ever want to take a deeper dive into their lyrics the website doolset provides I believe the most accurate translations with annotations and context! Welcome in this journey! If you like rap, lyricsm, wordplay, thought-provoking concepts, or just inspiring stories and impactful performances then I think you'll enjoy tagging along, get beyond what ppl think BTS is and once you give it a fair shot it's just full of surprises! Keep it genuine as you do, don't assume keep that curious and open mind, ask all the questions if you don't understand something and we'll answer! Much love💜

[@dahliapatricia750]

You could react their own vareity Show Called "Run BTS" plsss react the episode 11 or all of them

[@safehaven7329]

The power of Army is a blast in your channel. Congrats!! Imagine, Army will never get tired of watching their videos a zillion times. You know why? BTS word itself, is a healing. Somehow, watching their videos--old or new ones, makes us feel good, brightens our day.

[@snagglejag1977]

Hi! First time to your channel, but I'll be back. It's always nice to see someone giving honest reactions to our boys. Welcome to the rabbit hole! I think you'll have fun here. I agree with the suggestion for the Taylor video. I think a lot of credit needs to go to Bang PD. He had the vision to bring these boys - now men - together, casting not just for talent but also for character. He's a genius in how he handled his artists, and he broke the mold in kpop. The guys love him, and he loves them. It's a rare relationship in kpop for the artists and the CEO to be so close. BTS doesn't hesitate to clown Bang PD, and he's a great sport about it. He's a father figure for them. (I just feel really strongly that Bang PD doesn't get enough love.) I love your cat! He's beautiful.

[@melaniethomas7335]

Oh I'm happy u reacted to this one!! Congrats on the channel growth :) and Welcome to BTS journey♡ Now if you want a more detailed video about the members u can react to: "a guide to bts members: the bangtan 7" by taylor 💜

"They did a collaboration with McDonalds" that made me laugh. They have collaborated with Samsung, Louis Vuitton, Hyundai, Snickers, Samsonite, Fila, Coca-Cola and they are the Seoul Tourism Ambassadors they have also endorsed other smaller companies but when I heard you I thought you were talking about their music collabs. So I was trying to figure out what singer was called McDonald. lol
