Tribe Loui Was Definitely Not Prepared For D-2 (Suga Album Reaction Pt.1)

[@michell3718]

fun fact, we had no idea this was dropping. we got a mysterious "d-7" picture on twitter with no context at all. it was a countdown and every day was just mass confusion. some smart armys said an album would drop on d-2 as suga's second mixtape after agust D but this was a complete guess. i got up at 2am (with a ton of armys) cuz that's when stuff would drop back then just hoping something would drop and we got the daechwita mv... with the whole album. i listened to it for the first time at 2am after being awake for 5 min lol ill never forget that. its an incredible album

[@Majo2011G]

Same, i woke up at 4 am just in case and there was the album 😍

In the words of suga himself 'I never dissed anyone specifically. If someone feels targeted, then it’s their problem'🤭. Also fun fact he was a lil tipsy when he shot the daechwita mv.

[@paula_q]

Man, I love you for spoting Jin and Jungkook, hardly anyone notices or doesn't know them when watching the MV of Daechwita 😭 ngl, the first couple of times I listened to Daechwita, I didn't pay much attention to the lyrics and got carried away by the sound of the traditional instruments, and that makes me even more excited knowing that 해금 (Haegeum, D-Day) will have a similar sound and probably the continuation of this story line!

[@hannahbridges1708]

I'm always shook when new Army notice their first watch, because I'm a late YNWA Army (Mid 2017) and I didn't notice because I was too Overwhelmed by Yoongi being Yoongi 😅

[@lykadoodles4958]

ugh the way he released D2 out of nowhere got ARMY twt in panic but at the same time just sooooo Min Yoongi. gahd I love this album. I’m OT7 forever but D2 solidified Min Yoongi as my bias.

[@mikrokosmosmuster7615]

Loved this! Was a whole vibe. 😂 I know folks like to recommend the DKDKTV explanation videos but honestly I prefer the BOOKISH THEORIES explanation video for the Daechwita MV more as it aligns more w SUGA's intent AND includes clips of the D2 bangtan bomb interview itself in it. The DKDKTV interpretation was inaccurate on some things. Just FYI. 😅 (I think its good to explore several interpretations as songs/lyrics/etc can be taken several ways.) 💜

[@DanielleMDM93]

Same, DKDKTV kinda ignore Yoongi's own words on Daechwita

[@sheetalchand8546]

[@ImpulsiveCreativity]

Yeah DKDKTV has also admitted to straight up making some stuff up for their explanation videos.

[@noxfior]

@@ImpulsiveCreativity and they've also sported anti behavior against the boys, especially the dude in the Daechwita explanation video

[@elaineb6461]

I have to be honest, I stopped watching DKDTV awhile ago after some of their weird comments about BTS so I never saw this explanation for Daechwita. Super interesting getting some additional historical references. I think I watched Bookish Theories' explanation instead. OMG when you get to Yoongi's Interlude: Shadow, I really hope you watch Bookish Theories' explanation on it!!

[@yeyejen777]

"if you feel like you're going to crash then accelerate harder you idiot" - the line is originally from a bts song (nevermind, the word Jimin has tattooed on him) which is such a powerful song and makes the verse hit that much harder in moonlight.

[@GriffyndorGal]

Lol none of army were ready for this. He dropped it 2 days before we were expecting. Yoongi likes to create chaos & watch our reactions. He did the same for his Tour announcement - he came Live on Valentine’s Day & feigned missing army just to wait & see our reaction in real-time before dipping. This album is so good. So emotional

[@kedieria]

0:25 "the last suga mixtape wrapped his arm around my neck and said shut up" 😆😆😆 that's exactly what yoongi does with his... Everything i guess lmao And so true about dwelling into Suga's mind. When i heard it 3 years ago (wtf how it's been that long?) And read the lyrics, i really felt like i read his diary or smth. Like am i allowed to see this 😂

[@AJP.OT7]

Fun Fact: the gun Suga uses in the music video is called a 'Colt m1860 ARMY' ;)

[@MariaChavez-ey5sr]

In many ways Yoongi has No Chill. He will call you out and read your for freaking filth in his music and honestly I’m here for it. D2 levels up from D1 so much. But his beats and abilities as a producer are just so far above 😂 and he knows it. With his rap abilities in top it’s crazy. Moonlight is one of my top favorites for so many reasons especially when I’m in a rut. Daechwita is a work of pure genius, how he used traditional Korean instruments with a trap beat is crazy creative and his story telling is top tier. It’s funny how for like 6 years or more the media and other companies tried to make a big deal that BTs would weasel out of enlisting and here he lays it out “nope shut up don’t use our names yes we are enlisting”.

[@esmeraldaanaya9669]

D-2 is one of my all time favorite albums. I hold “28” so close to my heart. He did such an amazing job on each of the songs. I’m so excited to see him perform some of these songs live for the first time on his tour 🤩 He mentioned in a clip that’s in his upcoming documentary that he actually received an acting script because of the Daechwita MV 🤣

[@MummaLlama]

Loved that you noticed the little Jinkook squabble 🤣 it was a nice little touch! This song really made my appreciation for Yoongi SKYROCKET. His mumble rap is 👌

[@joonzrkive]

friend you should reach to the ot7 version of “daechwita” with all the bts members for festa😭😭 its so funny

[@HAB63]

agree!! Please Tribe Loui, react to Daechwita FESTA!

[@elaineb6461]

OMG thank you to the ARMY who made that Word doc, it's amazing!!!

[@glossaria2]

I love Moonlight so hard.... just the casual way he drops into the song to introduce the album, like, "oh, right, time for another album... I guess we're doing this!" I'll add that another common interpretation for Daechwita's two characters-- King Yoongi and Rebel Yoongi-- is that the King represents his "monster ambition," the aspect of him that just wants to gorge on that forbidden fruit and climb that ladder of success, no matter who gets hurt or how much he doesn't actually *want* the spotlight, while the Rebel is older, wiser, more even-keeled Yoongi who has achieved all his youthful dreams and now just wants to set his feet on the ground again. And even though King Yoongi thinks he holds the other captive, with the help of BTS and the support of ARMY, Rebel Yoongi is able to outsmart the insane King and put him down for good.

[@FarhanaK]

Oh Tribe, I am loving your journey into OT7 dive. No one is prepared for Yoongi, he somehow finds ways to get us. We had no idea this was dropping btw. This banger album was a surprise drop! We all lost our mind. PS. Congratulation for spotting Jin and Jungkook in the mv first watch! So many people missed them

Ok tribe leader you are now one of my top reactors and now a baby army you graduated from infancy 😂 you confirmed this when you recognized Jin also btw that was indeed jk with him (doing their friendly brotherly fights) 😅

[@cmoneman3025]

I love that you don't want random people to tell you what the album is about (I didn't even agree with some of the ways Danny Kim interpreted some lines, though I agreed with most of his interpretationsand im extremely grateful for all the historical references he shared) You're like me! I've said it before, but I think you're doing things the right way, listening to the whole album and enjoying for yourself💜😅

[@DanielleMDM93]

Yay, thank you Jonathan! So excited for this reaction!💜 Yoongi has said that the King is the Agust D from his first Mixtape and the Boss Agust D is his present him(2020 Agust D). I think the King is his anger, greed, ambition etc. and as one of the lyrics talk about having a reality check and now putting his feel on the ground, I feel like now that he's reached such heights he wants to focus more on himself as a person. P.s, I prefer Bookish Theories explanations better then DKDKTV's. I hope you check out her videos some time.

[@nj.7325]

I don't think the hyunta was ONLY about flexing though, it's not been easy on BTS. Fame has a lot that comes with it, and he's been really struggling with it for a while since 2017. It was both a flex and a reflection that hey, this isn't it, I don't feel great cause dreaming doesn't make sense anymore, I wanna be more grounded now. He's talked about it since then too.

[@jkssera]

btw YES JIN AND JUNGKOOK WAS IN THE MV!!! both of them on that fighting scene 😭😭😭😭

HE NOTICED JIN AND JK IN DAECHWITA AT HIS FIRST REACTION 😭 even I didn't notice Jin and Jk when I first saw the MV. THIS MAN IS MORE BORA BLOODED THAN ME WTF

[@blueturtle1813]

27:10 idol music is what the west calls kpop music btw - idol music is not seen as "real" music with substance in Korea - until BTS entered the scene. suga and rm both went through a major identity crisis early on because of being shoved into that disparaging box as people who are very serious about music. it happened to them in Korea by being referred to as idols instead of artists and in the west by being generalized under common kpop stereotypes (fake, fabricated, cheap, exploited etc) instead of just being put into the general categories (kpop instead of pop/ hiphop ) with their western peers

[@CQQueen]

I’VE WAITED FOR D-2 REACTION SINCE YOU STARTED. THE ALBUM IS IMPECCABLE

[@rkivelover]

Another way the Daechwita music video is most commonly interpreted, which makes more sense in connection to the Agust D mixtape and also the later Haegeum MV, is Yoongi rising up to kill the tyrannical, corrupted version of himself controlled by greed and hatred. Notice that the King has blonde hair - this is a direct reference to the blonde-haired 2016 Agust D, who was so full of anger at the world that he lost sight of what was important. This becomes a repeated cycle throughout the Agust D storyline, of killing the version of himself that has become polluted by power and purging himself of his demons, only to become that very thing he sought to kill. This is the most popular interpretation and the one that Yoongi himself has spoken about!

[@Majo2011G]

When in "What do you think?" he ends the songs by saying this song is the last gift for the haters, like he is done talking about this😅 Yoongi has all the bragging rights 😤

[@inmarsmind]

Honestly you being chaotic in those videos and sharing your thoughts about things seems so genuine. That’s why people love to watch your videos. Also there’s no bad vibes whenever I come across your channel. Love your content!!

[@p3nth3sil3a7]

Aah, to the well-organized, always prepared ARMYs, I humbly thank you! You are the backbone of this fandom.💜😌

[@cbel19]

one of my favourite things about this album is how raw the recording is ie. In people, if you listen with earphones in you can hear the little whistles from his nose when he breathes in between verses. Idk it’s a small detail but makes me appreciate his producing/recording work!

[@_agust.challie]

You have no idea how mad kpop fan when this mixtape drop and got defensive about their fave,Agust D didn't name drop anyone in any songs,he said "if you got offended by my music then it's your problem" 😂😂😂 he said he set up trap on his songs,then proceed call his haters "cockroaches" 😭😭😭

[@7sweetsuga]

This entire album is a banger. Yes you spot Jin & Jungkook. Lol

[@armystay330]

Omg you're reactions are top notch, I get so excited watching them, you are always spot on, thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving them a chance and actually getting involved ❤💜🫰

[@jmbltc]

So I wasn’t the only one anticipating the D-2 reaction😭

[@maryklaas9523]

Loved that u caught Jin on the 1st run. JK was there also

[@mpgisbtsarmybaefighting2838]

My favorite line from D2 ever comes from Daechwita, "I'm about to dine on what's mine!" Best line ever, imo 💜

[@rkivelover]

that line in What Do You Think? about how people “tried to get a free ride [exemption from military service] by selling [BTS’] names” is a direct reference to the conference that took place in 2019, when BTS were reaching their peak in the West, where several of the CEOs of the biggest kpop companies met *without inviting BTS’ company* to ask the government if idols that reached a certain level of success could skip military service (as with some Korean athletes), and used BTS’ success as collateral despite the fact that BTS weren’t even represented and the other kpop acts hadn’t even come close to BTS’ success. In the end the government granted an extension to 30 years old (instead of 28) for the cutoff for military service for very successful idols that represented Korean culture internationally, but the conditions of “success” meant that only BTS could qualify LMAO (and to this day, no other kpop acts have qualified, thus gaining the law the nickname “BTS law”)

[@MarinaEariel]

I enjoy the "explained" videos (from any creator) as a source for general cultural and language references, but out of that, anything else is often just an opinion, and sometimes it even is different from what the guys said about their work

[@silver25683]

"If you can't find internal peace now, what makes you think when you reach that ideal anything internal peace will be waiting for you there." It's so fxcking right!!!!!!

[@cjayj442]

So funny how you sat down for the history lesson. 😅 I do the same when hearing the explanations on some of their songs.

[@Maria-nw7be]

Even though that explanation video gives very interesting details, I don't like it much as a whole, I think it over interprets. Besides the references and symbolism, when you understand what they mean, they actually unlock directly the meaning of Yoongi's textual words. I don't think this is so much about BTS and Army as it is about him facing himself. Yoongi said in a live after the release that the blonde Agust D was also called "anger". This is more about his own desire for revenge or for karma towards those who wronged him and made him suffer so much. Blonde Agust D let it all out in D-1 and partly in D-2, but here already comes black-haired Agust D who rebels against his own path, which would lead him to madness, by killing his anger. Btw, no one knows if blonde Agust D is dead, and we will find out about it in this last Agust D album, D-Day 😁 edit: typos corrected ehe

[@blueturtle1813]

19:05 you can't overstate what power the big entertainment corporations in korea had and have btw. it's different from the US in that the corruption is way more extreme. the big three labels have corrupt connections to media and politics and small artists like bts got regularly taken out when they started to grow over their station. bts was heavily attacked and sabotaged too. scnadalous stories were masde up and planted in media, internet trolls were bought to slander them, during music shows they were made to change in the hall in front of the toilets while big three idols got dressing rooms and laughed at them. their perfromances cut and canceled last minute, SM even tried to buy bts to disband them when they started to outgrow SMs own boygroup Exo. Bang PD refused despite being broke and saved them
