Spring Day is known as the Queen. Any time Army is going through something, it recharts.

[@haesoognzg]

Funnily enough, it never actually left the top 100 chart in SoKor.

[@anujkadam4019]

It doesn't recharts. Spring Day never left the charts from since the day of it's released even you can see on Top 100 Melon charts, Billboard world digital sales charts, etc. Even now it's chart at 65 on Melon's Top 100 chart in South Korea.

Love the Jin voice appreciation! I have watched someone say the same thing! He's a vocal coach too. When I watch reaction vids, people rarely appreciate his voice but those who knows their thing, appreciates his voice. Because as Richard said his voice cuts through well, the coach I watched (I forgot his name sorry!), said that Jin's voice balances all their voices together. His voice is like the bridge that connects & supports their voices well altogether.

[@shreyasitambraparni5713]

In all lives, Jin's voice truly hits hard mann! He truly stands out! He's out in like 50 days Or so.. And I can't wait for his solo!

Film Out is such an underrated song, or at least to me. It was released in the same year as Butter. It kinda went under the radar. I love Jin's voice too, especially live. During live shows we can really hear his voice. I kinda get that "cut" reference.

[@sharonlahaye5803]

I remember RM and Suga said that, when written, it was about missing friends from their childhood that they no longer saw. The Sewell ferry incident was not allowed to be mentioned by anyone in South Korea or they would be blacklisted and so BTS bravely made the music video in order to bring it to light.

[@ipurpleu1668]

I wish people had a better true understanding of Korea's environment at the time. When Spring Day was released, the president had already been impeached and they were moving on with kicking her out of office and arresting her. This was past the time of 'blacklisting'. The streets were filled with people protesting against the government, and you probably couldn't find someone in Korea who wouldn't talk about it. They most likely didn't speak directly about it because it was obvious and because they were showing support, not taking away attention from the cause. They were brave for donating back when it was damaging to speak about it, but I don't think it's fair to say releasing Spring Day was 'brave', at least not when the real bravery were people protesting on the streets and celebrating the president's impeachment openly.

[@ygiooo6898]

People weren't getting 'blacklisted' by the time Spring Day came out. The president was already impeached.

[@lunariadynasty3065]

Yes, unlike in America where the citizens have freedom of speech, it is not the same in S Korea It would have been viewed as hate speech against the government if anyone spoke out about the Sewol tradegy. Other songs hinted at the tradegy but for me and I think many others, none of them hit the heart like Spring Day does due to the way the song was openly crafted and then in combination with the video, Spring Day has steadily remained on Korean music charts for 7 years.

[@ipurpleu1668]

@@lunariadynasty3065 this is incorrect. The president had already been impeached and was heading to prison by the time Spring Day was released. Literally everyone in Korea was talking about it. Years before, like when BTS donated money, there was the possibility of being “blacklisted”, but not during this time. Also, the “blacklist” already had BTS one it, the whole thing was just never put into motion before the president was impeached. And it was from other stuff they had done, like Yoongi’s lyrics about mocking a conservative politician from Daegu in Ma City and Am I Wrong. It had nothing to do with them supporting stuff about the Sewol tragedy. Also, be more careful about your descriptions of South Korea. It is more conservative than the US, but it is also a democracy and that’s what they literally went to war (and still technically in war) for. People CAN express their opinions and protest and do important things, I mean they literally impeached and threw their corrupt president in jail, America has never done something like that. And “black listing” is a thing in America too. Ever heard of the Dixie Chicks? They literally were blacklisted for speaking up about the USA’s invasion of Iraq. Let’s not speak down on other countries’ citizens with the idea that America citizens is somehow “more free” than them.

[@Sherluck93]

Of course, til this day, they don't say it out loud. But the MV made it clear (3 years later, maybe because they felt the memory fade away) and, in this case specifically, it doesn't change the intention just because they didn't confirm it publically. Army and the whole world understood and remembers. Never forget. 🫂 🎗 💜 (That's why we keep our queen in the charts! It's not an accident. NEVER FORGET!)

Sugas spring day verse was actually written about the same ex friend he wrote dear my friend about, its a beautiful song worth checking out

[@dessyk75]

I watched a documentary about the Sewol incident last year on this day, which is the commemoration of the incident. It is really heartbreaking. For the families that lost their members, for the survivors that lost their friends, even for the rescue party (divers), the incident left a deep scar. I read a diver committed suicide because he couldn't bear the image of the students bodies left in the sinking ship. It's very tragic. I was crying watching the documentary. So sad..

[@RinaIsmail9710]

Everytime I watch spring day explain by Italian army.. my eyes leaking especially when i recalled the parents bagging to save their kids life.. coz they still alive that time.

[@dopaminish2099]

Queen Spring day. In December, when army was really sad bc of their enlistment, it charted again and even pushed 2 songs from the top of the charts which ALWAYS are on top in December here in Germany, all I want for Christmas and the theme for „3 Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel“. I Love Spring day. It IS kind of wholesome

[@Mark-vj7zd]

The song ‘Spring Day’ is a personal meditation by RM and Suga on the grief of separation from friends and family and the loss of friendship. RM began writing sitting in a park in autumn, watching leaves fall and thinking about those he’d left behind when he moved to Seoul to pursue his musical dreams. Suga wrote from the same emotional place as his song ‘Dear My Friend’, which was addressed to a very close friend from his youth who he ultimately lost to drugs and prison. The video takes that universal theme and is very definitely evoking the national tragedy and scandal of Sewol. It quickly became adopted as part of a national movement which eventually lead to a change of government and the impeachment and imprisonment of the previous president. Artists were being blacklisted for supporting the protests so they had to be careful. The BTS members had already quietly donated about a third of their 2015 earnings to support the families of the victims and had met with some of them. This only emerged after the families spoke out to defend them when they were attacked for ‘exploiting’ the disaster. I think it’s important to recognise that the song and video both end with a tentative expression of hope. That’s why it deserves its place as an ‘immortal song’.

[@hannanounou3153]

I DID NOT EXPECT FILM OUT my favourite BTS Japanese song man I feel hit by amazing vocals it gives me chills I'm happy you did this thank you

[@AbyssEnthusiast]

It always amazes me how you guys can pick up on the melodies really quickly, esp Johnny who can play them in a matter of minutes after listening to it. I mean duh, you're professionals, of course you guys can do it, but it's still so amazing to me. ❤

[@ceci8556]

RM said his lyrics were about how he missed his friends, how he wishes they could be there to share his experiences with him, and how he's missing out on theirs. They didn't get to continue growing up together and that made him sad, at times. The lyrics do lend well to the tragedy. I usually avoid hearing this beautiful song because it's so heartbreaking.

[@Alex0709x]

The way you managed to hear different styles of songs from BTS and yet like all of them is a testament to the quality of music BTS put out. Music you can enjoy as they make you cry and then smile. Also, I didn't realize that you all had not officialy heard Dynamite yet. Once Johnny started saying he knew it because it was a huge song I kept agreeing because yes, Dynamite is a huge hit and was such a turning point for BTS and their career!

[@brigittekrahn]

Spring day started, and Joon went "It's been the roughest summer ever..."... GUESS WHO STARTED CRYING...!?!?!? 🥺

[@ken0613]

I love everyone who suggested and voted film out!!!! MY SONGGGGGG

[@user-sh8iz3ji5n]

The government neglected the rescue, but many fishermen and civilians joined small boats and braved rough waters, risking their lives to search for survivors. Although the golden hour had already passed, there was no chance of their survival, but the people did everything they could to send the children to their bereaved families. I gathered it. All celebrities were reluctant to mention it for fear of being disadvantaged by the government, but BTS created Spring Day and comforted the bereaved family and the people with this song. The president who did not take any rescue measures at the time was impeached and punished, and korean have still not forgotten this incident.

[@Tke]

So this actually happened a day or two before a big kpop concert in LA that year. My mom and I both were kpop fans going and were talking about wearing yellow the moment we heard about the ribbons. But the second we arrived we realized several girls from different fandoms already had made hundreds of yellow ribbon pins for everyone at the concert. They gave them away for free and offered it to all fandoms and ages, as long as you were there for Korea they gave them. It was one of the first times I realized kpop as a category was getting popular, they were ready to show solidarity and support, didn’t accept money for anything, and only offered donations boxes to be sent to Korea with whatever anyone could give. There was a popular rookie group who got blacklisted for talking against the president, they were 24K (and have rebranded since), and have faded to mediocrity as a result of her evil list. Both RM and Suga swear now Spring Day isn’t about that tragedy, but a lot feel there’s too many connections to say it’s not. But as long as they’re safe and respected, a lot of people will continue to support the song like a badge of honor because it means so much to them. 💜

[@s.susanmarandi9080]

That was an interesting experience. As you say, apparently the song wasn't originally written for the ferry incident, but the MV was. I also remember once they sang it live, with the whole background showing the bottom of the sea.

[@wendyharmon3743]

Yeah Suga has said it was written about the same friend as his song “Dear My Friend”, but the MV lends itself to the tragedy so perfectly

if you notice in the mv/studio version, it was RM who sang the first verse, but in tinydesk it's j-hope. j-hope actually has no lines in the studio version (only hidden backing vocals) but they eventually decided to give the part to him when they sing live. (feel free to correct me if im wrong ARMY, but thats what i understood from research)

[@yamilethchavez3994]

En la versión en vivo, J-hope toma líneas que la versión de estudio son de RM y JK, de igual forma, Jin toma partes de JK

[@slayyyyyyy_07]

I know they said they pick lines which fits them. I think Jhope fits the lines he sings live. But what I also think that Jhope not having a line in the MV could represent the youth that don’t have a voice and are oppressed both the tragedy and still now. It’s probably not correct but that’s just what I think.

This is the only song that can make me cry every time I hear it. When the man is at the City Council meeting begging for justice did you notice that the people sitting at the table and against the wall are not paying attention to the man sobbing but are looking at their phones. In the song they mention WHITE SMOKE. When a new pope is elected: With each unsuccessful vote, the cardinals release black smoke through a chimney visible from Saint Peter's Basilica. When the College of Cardinals has elected a new pope, white smoke is released to announce that a new pope has been chosen.

The mix of Spring Day here is the one they always perform BUT it's not the recorded version. In the recorded version Namjoon (RM) does the part that JHope does here. In this song, JHope had A LOT of harmonizing vocals with the vocal line. So to perform it they gave JHope that part at the beginning since what he did for the song would be on the backing track of the song.

Kudos to Richard and Johnny for another great live session although this one had many of us in tears not just Richard. Thanks for handling the topic with such care.

Our thoughts and prayers go with them on the anniversary Whether you choose to react to it or not, I recommend listening to the So Hee Immortal Songs 2 Spring Day version.

Proof Live is my favorite 💜

[@TooLittleInfo]

They're really good at doing that mixture of melancholy and hopeful, and it really gets through even when you don't know the language or even what they're singing about (when first time listening). It's just baked into the composition, and among the 3 members who are the primary writers in the group (basically rapline) they are ALL. REALLY. REALLY. GOOD. at this. Their songs are just really well crafted, which i think is a rarity in popular music these days *shakes fist at cloud* It feels a little corny to admit this but I still do suddenly find myself choking up or even just outright crying when Spring Day comes on, it just hits me right in the feels. And it's not even the only BTS song that has that effect on me. It's crazy that these young guys singing in Korean can have that effect bc I can't think of any other artist who can do that to me on a semi-regular basis

[@silviamunoz6863]

As always, you killed it! Thanks for one more excellent and emotional reaction. Richard, don't worry, none of us was able to hold the tears back at that moment. The pain in those parents' voices is something that breaks any single soul. As a parent, it is worse because it is too relatable 😢 Film out is also about loss. As you perfectly said, even when the subject is hard, they transmit a message of hope. At least, better times will come. 🙏🙏 Thanks for your joy, your sympathy, for spreading your knowledge in a so soft way, for your beautiful musical "pauses", Johnny! Borahae! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 Oh!

I am so happy you reacted to this. I love Spring Day, but it really puts you through the wringer from sadness to anger to nostalgia, that BTS for you. And I was super excited you did tiny desk as I love to see them live. And when you ended with Film Out, which is one of my all time favorites, i was literally doing thie Snoopy Happy Dance! I am happy you came back to them. Would love Crystal Snow, Tomorrow, and Baepsae. Thank you for you open reactions, we all feel it.

I agree, you have to close yourself off from all the tragedies that happen every day so you can function. It’s why I stopped watching the news. I already suffer from depression, and putting a stop to the constant negativity helped my mental status so much, especially during COVID. Discovering the boys helped, too!

Greetings from South Africa. Found your channel through Dimash Reviews and really enjoy your insight into music. Your reactions are fantastic.

[@MM-et2jr]

Thank you soooooo sooooo sooooooo much for this! Reacting to Spring Day and the explanation video (technically a fan theory) by Italian ARMY. This song really was what I needed when I was at my lowest some years ago. This song is SO special to me. And I LOOOOVE the Tiny Desk Concert!! It always puts a smile on my face.

I started to watch this but I'll pas for now. I have a bad day already, no need to breaking my heart today😅

[@Throga]

understood! Hope your day gets better :)

[@FantabulousReactions]

I thought so as well but it ends on a happy encouraging note! You may feel better after watching!

[@dl7596]

@@Throga Such a shame that the video screen (here especially for the SD explanation video) is so small so that the text is too difficult to read, even with the "full" screen enabled. Not to mention that the filtered video itself is very difficult to discern. I seem to think that most fan-made videos don't do the copyright strike thing. It's more often the TV stations or other major programs. Also, when positioned at the bottom, the CC are hidden by the icons and timeline when paused to read. I prefer channels who make themselves smaller or to the side and a BTS video while playing at least, is bigger so that we can see who is singing, any significant staging connections, the actions and the opaque CC is readable without constant pausing to read and having eyestrain. I've watched a few reactions to SRING DAY and this Italian explanation video and don't recall anyone filtering them. Isn't there some way to check a sampling of a reaction video before recording/editing the whole reaction? BTW, for anyone interested, a quick web search has other informative videos and good articles about the tragedy.

I strongly empathize...I thought was the only one. Maybe it has to do with being older with children. I can't imagine what the parents feel when they hear this song.

[@brendaoyanguren7623]

Great great great reaction! I’m glad you watched the Italian Army explanation. Spring Day brings so much comfort to me 💜

Hi guys! I'm late due to work huhu but here I am watching during my break 💜 Get well soon, Richard!! Thank you for still being here and for doing this reaction/live 🙌🐳 Finally, "The Queen" of BTS's Songs 💜👑 Namjoon did an amazing job for creating this song while looking at leaves falling. I think they didn't really mention that this was related to Sewol but many theorized that it is due to the Easter Eggs that the MV has. That Sewol Incident was a whole new level of eye-opener about how corruption can really make people so inhumane. My father watched this and he cried as well. Kinda surprise you reacted to "Film Out" too hehe, their japanese songs "live" are my favorites 💜 Here are some: - Your Eyes Tell - Crystal Snow - Let Me Go - Lights - Stay Gold - Don't Leave Me - For You - Good Day The 1st three songs have live performances, not sure about the others, I think "For You" also has one, it also has an MV same with Film Out & Stay Gold. They are all wonderful songs 👑💯💜😊

[@dere2879]

Your good vibes are felt through the screen. I smile non-stop on all your BTS content. There's not one video reaction I'm not LOL-ing.

[@sandys1890]

Spring Day is still on the charts.....it never left

[@sejal73525]

Youu will love YOUR EYES TELL live version from same video after the film out.

[@dotdot8395]

wow you really had the most insane choice of songs/lives in the same livestream! BTS brings all sorts of emotions out of you

[@kyunglim2965]

BTS the only artist that had 3 songs on the chart in 3 different languages including English and Japanese.

[@annikaskarstedt2849]

Missed you reacting to BTS! 💜 Love to watch you guys!

[@sallyyeatts3502]

The Rice Squad gave a good explanation of the MV for Spring Day. Thank you for your reaction to MV, explanation and Tiny Desk.💜💜

[@Olivia-xf4gy]

Film Out is SO BEAUTIFUL 😭😭😭❤ Jimin actually has a voice of an angel. Jin and Jimin's voices are especially beautiful in 'Film Out'. The harmonies and layering are both so beautiful too. I'm watching this while being sick too @richard hahaha bts is healing xD truly

[@kristim.9914]

So glad you reacted to Spring Day and the Tiny Desk concert. It made my day.

[@catb726]

Oh yes Crystal Snow please!! 💜

[@lizazil4381]

Thank you for your thoughtful commentary.

[@christinedowney]

The Queen.

[@SomolMean562]

BTS live is always great! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@yoondoIIi]

As always, thank you so much for your insight and for being so respectful ♥ i bawled my eyes out as soon as Spring Day started playing, it's such a poignant song about grief but, as you said, it can be interpreted as whatever the listener needs it to be. This song (and album, to be honest) helped me through my darkest moments, and I can confidently say that it saved my life. I can't help but be heartwarmed whenever someone discovers BTS and manage to see, without any prejudice, just how bright and geniunely kind they are. (the absolute whiplash of smiling and dancing along their tiny desk performance though :')) and you're right, they're the best medicine !)

[@2424amanda]

I’m so glad you did film out!! 🥹💜💜✨
