When Hobi cried, Jungkook cried. When Jin started talking Tae and Jimin started to breakdown as well. Jin and Jhope are usually the last ones to cry. Seeing them like this broke my heart. Even the idols in the audience cried cos they are able to relate to what the boys are saying. Mad Respect for BTS. Bangtan Forever! Than you guys for reacting to this. I love your channel. You guys are def my favorite reactors.

They're so real. They're real to the point where I start to wonder, how much BTS must trust Army & e/o to even consider sharing their deepest, darkest, innermost feelings. When V's grandma passed away, he chose to speak about it in front of the fans, because he knew that we won't leave him alone, & that he can express himself in that way too. When their mental health suffers, they always turn to Army, & try to get at least a little bit of comfort & confidence in us. We are their family. We see them at their best, & at their worst. Nothing can ever replace that.

[@andylee1356]

Dang, this acceptance speech really just gives me flashbacks to BTS and ARMY during 2018. This was the boys 3rd time winning MAMA Artist of the year (the first time for any artist), but even then, there was this tension of whether they would win or not. The boys would share here and there about them struggling throughout the year, and ARMYs were really getting outcast for celebrating the boys successes throughout the year because "BTS is mainstream". Back then, even with how confident ARMY was in believing in BTS, there was still so much push back from the industry and we never knew what success would be overlooked it downgraded. Everything just sort of exploded that day. It felt like BTS' and ARMY's efforts were really really blossoming. I'm glad that now moments like this can be seen as a moment of perseverance and determination.

[@Liz-rf4qu]

That's so true. The boys and us were really went through a hard time that year.

2018 really was a struggle.

[@sbh6536]

After all those years of struggle, they knew that they had to wait, as success is something which comes after many failures, they knew they needed to be patient, and that the better could come This is why, no one will be the next BTS, I truly believe that

Seeing Hobi and Jin crying is really tought, they are the mental and emocional pillars of the group and never show us any pain. But they do feel sadness, it was just so emotional and brave of them to show us what was going on

[@Kookietaetan]

Yes, I must agree how hard this was to see again, felt just like the 1st time I saw it, I cry every time, and as was said below, Jin’s transparency of what they we going thru really and about their mental health, you can see how humble and loving and just real people not mega celebs, Even recently Tae “ V “ shared that he was going thru difficulty with his mental health, it was during 2020 Festa all this was going on, they always do special things or write special messages to each other to share with ARMY’s, when you read the scrolls, everyone’s message to Tae was showing concern for him, they knew he was going thru somethings which he didn’t want to share apparently, but it was just so beautiful how each one told him they were there for him, told him to call & do lunch, just can see the love for each other, I think ARMY’s are lucky to have these guys, I know I am, they love what they do, but also want to use what they love to help ARMY’s who may be having difficulty in their lives, Blue & Grey came out because Tae wanted to share that he went thru depression so maybe we he could help those going thru it as well, I hope that he releases his original version which was suppose to be on his mix tape, it was done all in English and what he shared a little of it on in the soup, his voice is just so beautiful and comforting, so having an English & Korean version would really be great

[@fp_ilovelies2351]

I'm glad it's Jin who stepped up & voice it out. 2018 was such a tender moment for them. Ppl who thought it's not that hard for them to keep going, got a cold slap when they heard Jin's literal confession (that it's actually their hardest decision ever) Just like u said, it's indeed heartbreaking, but it's a good reminder for us to value them as strong human being who aren't just being grateful for having each other, but also dare enough to face that darkness so openly; invited us to learn more how to be like them Note: I love the open Jin. He made another wonderful & brave statement (and being approved by our leader, RM) in the next (year) MAMA. What a time of Jin to be so blunt & open like that abt issues he barely touch b4 And Joonie gave a marvelous statement as well (2018 MAMA's Album of The Year), the one that ARMY should always remember, especially the "fans" who hate BigHit so unnecessarily

Jk has always said that nothing is hard for him..except seeing other members have a hard time. When Tae saw the look on Jk's face while watching Jin describe the time when BTS didn't know if they would re-sign for another 7-year contract. Seeing the pain in Jk's face as he remembered. It was too much for Tae, who wears his heart on his sleeve. He broke down, and Jk pulling Tae in to comfort him broke me. I bawled like a baby.

[@_birdie]

I just on’t understand how this would work going forward. The rest of the guys will have to enlist themselves in the coming years… they can’t exactly take a hiatus every single time. Don’t know how this can even work…. They had to take a 2yr break bc of CoVid. Then Jin left, and will be gone for almost 2yrs. Yeah they’ll be working on solo projects, but I wonder if the group will remain n tact. Plus I worry about their momentum slowing way down during this time… Very curious to see what they’ll do during Jin’s enlistment, what happens when it’s time for the others to do it, how things will be after hiatus, etc.

When I watched this speech back in 2018, that's when it hit me that someday BTS is really gonna disband. The fear suddenly hits with my reality that these men who saved me will eventually say goodbye. It was an eye opener for me, making me realized that these idols are humans too and they deserve a break, they deserve to heal. As much as I want BTS to stay forever, I will have to say goodbye one day. Now all I have to do is enjoy this ride with them, and make it as the most beautiful moment of my life until it last. Till this day, these speech still hurt me. Especially knowing that other idols that night cried too for they know what it feels like.

Im trying to comfort you so hear me out 🥺☺️ There are bands who are together for ever. BTS maybe is a boyband , but they are different. They are artists. You think Suga will ever stop? Jk ? Maybe we won’t have RunBTS or worldtours or Vlives forever. But I don’t think BTS will never not exist 🙂 It will be natural for them to slow down but it will also feel like it 😊 They would never just give it up. We’ll see what the military will bring. But this won’t be the cause for them to stop. But you know what - you’ll be okay 💜 cause when the time comes they’ll probably prepared us unknowingly with songs about the next step or saying goodbye that we’ll be okay 🥰 They would never let us fall without giving us wings to fly.

No matter how many times I watch this, I always shed tears of joy and tears of sadness at the same time. Sad that they had to go through so much, happy that they were strong enough to withstand it all and be who they are today

[@madre6322]

"To the ARMY that have ALWAYS shown US love I wanted to say thank you" They know that not all Armys love them all. Although they have said repeatedly (Tae in particular) to "please love them equally" they know what goes on in the fandom. They read it, they feel it and see it. It hurts them. As a fairly new Army, this is a shocking reality for me. But, I will do my contribution to Love each and every one of them. I signed up as OT7 and that's what I'm here for.

[@6468May]

There are ARMYS that don’t love them? That makes me mad. How are they ARMIES if they don’t love them? They need to be called something else. I can think of a few words to call them 😂

[@shalinikvasan]

No one (whether an army or not) can watch this speech and not get emotional! Their words literally made us feel their struggle! Also, so glad the award show did not rush them with the speech and let them take their time! 💜

[@ioana.rebeca2]

Everybody cried so hard because it was a rough year for them.Even though Jimin and Yoongi might look strong, they were crying in the back.Jimin said that he was trying to hold his tears and be strong for the others.I just love and appreciate them so much, really!!!!!

[@vaL-kv6uy]

Thank you for posting this with English subtitles during BTS 2018 gratitude speech. Other videos of it did not. BTS are so humble and yet so outstandingly multi-talented. They went through criticisms and hate from jealous others who tried to put them down. I'm so glad Army helped them get the awards they deserve because they are, after all, stands above all other K-pop groups boy or girl groups in their performances, down to each detail of hand gestures, poses, etc. where their dance moves expresses the lyrics of their songs.

[@chessyjin]

I never seen any idol like them how they are so open for everything that's why I love BTS a lot because the way they show what is the reality and it makes me strong more now

[@lsandora5]

That clip of Tae breaking gets me every time. As if the idea of not having his brothers by him, doing what they all do best, just KILLED him inside. I cry 😢 everytime.

[@Tarmachan]

I'm actually really proud of Jimin for holding it together here and delivering the speech after Hobi, since he's usually one of the people who cries the hardest at concerts and stuff

[@faith6793]

When Tae was crying , a staff after seeing him like that, said that it was their first time seeing him cry so much like that and that she felt really heartbroken by it , it was the first time he CRIED like that in front of them.

[@anutiwari2602]

Just imagine how tough it is for BTS and every artists to prove themselves on every step that they literally broke into tears let’s respect their hardwork and struggles 💜

[@syaerrys6895]

I cry every single time i watch this speech. When j-hope our happy pill our sunshine lost his composure, that was it for me. The waterworks would not stop flowing.

[@MarianaFaciroli]

The only channel that I’m always looking forward for every single video. You guys are amazing! Best channel ever!

[@Smbowen67]

Mariana Faciroli I agree! They are the best! 👍🤟

[@joyceong946]

Now this is why I became a fan of BTS... I clearly felt the sincerity between the chemistry of BTS and ARMY. For me this is a phenomenon, ARMY is not just a screaming fans who adores them because their all good-looking etc and BTS is not just any Artists who would just do they job to earn more fortune and popularity, and just have a little interaction with the fans during live shows or concerts. I saw how BTS give all their attention to ARMY, to feel that little attention or interaction with your favorite artists or Idols are a big thing for a fan, even just receiving a sweet smile or a simple hello is already over-whelming, thinking that you were able to get their attention. I know cause I've been a fan to several Artists and been to lots of concerts. (So I know the feeling of being seen by these Artists) And to ARMY, I admire the love, support and faith that this fandom is giving to BTS. Between the ARMY and BTS, this is a two-way relationship, and a very true one indeed. ARMY is not just Fans or Fandom to BTS but a World-wide Bestfriends, Families or Partners to BTS that will continue to leap with their future goals and succeed alongside with their respected Idols. ARMY and BTS continue to be an inspiration to each other. A lot of things I wanna pour out but I think my message is clear and was confided enough. And lastly, I've said it before and I will say it again: "I'm a proud ARMY! Fighting!!! I purple you everyone!!!" ;)

[@Ivy_OT7]

I will never forget that speach. Everytime I watch it, it makes me cry and emotional. I love this seven guys so much.

[@chi.lottiee]

Their speech was really emotional but your guy's reaction and side comments made it more emotional. I still cry everytime I watch it. Thanks for your genuine reaction. My fave BTS' reactor, keep safe and have a good day. Ilovey'all Ps. Sorry for my wrong grammar

[@WhatchaGot2Say]

Your grammar is perfect and so is your comment to us. Thank you FAM 🤓💜

[@EamEnaid]

Another fact. V can't stop crying even after.

[@kleinexiao7332]

The moment they taught when they succeed they will be happy but in the back success paid by there freedom and family.

[@sheryljoym.cabuslay7422]

I just looove it everytime they receive the awards the first word that would come out would always be "ARMY" when clearly it was our boys who did their part so well that we see that makes us support them as hard as we could too, they never fail us and never plan to do so. BTSxARMYxBIGHIT has the best teamwork in History!!!

[@13jm30]

jimin He comforted and embraced others and forgot from himself that he does not want to cry, but he is really an angel

[@llu.design]

The day I was watching it live, how much I cried is not even written. That's when I realized that I was army

[@classical7]

This speech gets me emotional every time and takes me straight to "Outro TEAR" which pulls at my heartstrings even more! 😭💜🎶

[@alissimioniuc4095]

This is one of the hardest things to watch for me. As soon as Hobi tears up I started sobbing like a baby. Their genuineness and love for ARMY, each other and their craft really shone through here. They have such big hearts and have worked so hard to get to where they are that it just pains me so much to hear about all the pain and struggle they went through. But I am so happy that they trust us enough to share these things with us, that they know we will always be here for them. 💜💜💜 Thank you guys for reacting to this as I know how much you appreciate the boys and I feel like this is such an important part of their journey. 🤗

[@meganhardy6700]

Taehyung continued to cry even after the show when they had an interview. He was sobbing :(

[@Ayeshlc]

THIS IS SO EMOTIONAL I AM NOT READY TO REWATCH THIS...I regret watching this before going out. Now my eyes are swollen. This never fails to bring tears to my eyes. 🥺

[@sarahcrawford4992]

Doesn’t matter how many times I’ve seen this I cry like a baby. And like you guys said, thank you BTS. They go through a lot to make sure ARMY are happy and I just appreciate them more than they’ll ever know.

[@smilehoya1133]

honestly, the heartbreak from this is reflected after knowing Outro: Tear is made for the members in the same year, and yoongi admitting them crying over the lyrics together. Their bond is really remarkable, i will never stop being glad that they all have each other

[@lostgirl2798]

Jin is always honest in his speeches. I remember the speech he made in 2019 award show too. That's one of the best

[@lilyLovesStories]

This was so hard to watch, but it made me love them even more 💜. Their true heartfelt speech broke my heart. They had it rough. Nothing was easy for them, but they surpassed all those bad times. Although kpop was somewhat known to the Western American, European and so on, BTS were the ones who paved the way & opened those doors to the world for other kpop idols. Our men were ridiculed, bashed, cut off shows, mocked, hated , but they worked harder & look at them now. I love BTS. I am a proud ARMY 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@pattyjimenez701]

Cuando te pones en lugar d esa persona q sufre...sientes su sufrimiento y deseas consolarlo. Es tan humano llorar, demostrar dolor y tmb es humano consolar, dar menajes positivos

I'm still crying everytime I watched this video of their speech during that year ... ❤❤❤❤❤ lots of love for this 7 amazing..wonderful human beings

[@sandrahazzard2505]

I can’t even count how many times I have watched this, and it still hits me so hard, I cry every time 💜

[@namhope947]

Thanks to god we still have them because I can't even imagine my life without them💜

[@nomathamsanqa28]

I think I've watched this more than twice, and each time feels like the first. The fact that they let us into their world, their struggles and mental struggles especially, makes me respect them even more. NO GLITZ, NO GLAMOUR, just raw authentic emotions. Artists hardly ever admit such things to fans. I love that that their speeches are about them and ARMY, that's why there isn't any other family like ARMY. When you listen to this award appreciation speech, you really see how authentic they are, most artists diss other artists when they accept their award. I feel like I know what they talking about and what they are feeling.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!BTS---RESPECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@uzzhi]

Gracias. Estos chicos realmente han trabajado muy duro para estar en donde están, lamentablemente, ellos son los que reciben más odio, tanto de otros fandoms como de la gente que tiene pensamientos racistas. Army está enormemente orgulloso de ellos y los amamos.

[@siskatchiu]

This is not my first time watching this awards show. And every time I watch it, I will also get teary. This was THE award show speech that always gets me. Most memorable one. For sure.

[@sheenamariecallejo4113]

I really cried watching this, Our bangtan boys deserve all the love and respect. Their hardworks and good heart is being paid off, 💜🏆🏆🏆

[@antonettevallely2448]

BTS=LOVE

[@kylehearnsberger9883]

It’s moments like this that makes the reason why I’m a huge fan of the group more true to this day - their humbleness. 🙏 They had my respect even when I randomly got started to be a fan with only watching the Black Swan music video about a year ago. Now I’m proud to be Army. 👍👍

[@kylehearnsberger9883]

Dang, that thank you at the end from you three awesome dudes - 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️ ✊✊✊

[@anushkasingh4269]

Me watching this for the hundredth time and crying for whole hour. Their hardships they face ...but still maintain their smiles for US . I swear I never felt this loved n cared for

[@heartsamessgaultier8562]

Notice how the guys can take anything but they can't take JHope crying? He gets them every time, they love him so much. And JK pulling himself together so he can comfort V and Jimin immediately hugging Hobi. I can't with these boys.

[@stillv9855]

Gracias por su reacción. Son ustedes siempre tan respetuosos y cariñosos con nuestros chicos, que sólo puedo decirles MUCHAS GRACIAS. 💜I PURPLE YOU💜 Un abrazo fuerte desde Colombia.

[@belkisyanes2903]

I 💜 BTS. I am grateful they didn't disband. Thank you guys for giving the best BTS reactions. ♥️

[@TheAnonymous547]

This made me cry so hard when I saw it the first time 😭💜

[@shannonslutzky4754]

I’ve seen different translations of this where tae says “if I was born again, army would still be the best gift in my life” and suga’s “thank you to our families that raised us 7 brothers”. I only mention because I notice how the slight difference in captions does seem to change what they are saying a bit, curious which is correct

[@SD-nx6ky]

I think tae meaning in both subs would be same ..yea Suga one is a lil.different but I don't fill they change the emotions 💜

[@shannonslutzky4754]

S D yes, I def agree with that!💜

[@serenity3209]

That was from a different award, that Tae said.

[@Karin_Allen]

If you watch the Festa they filmed earlier that year - just 2-3 months after they'd talked about disbanding - you can find a lot of coded references to what they've been through. And you'll *also* hear Suga say that he sent two long texts to Tae and JK. Apparently he never sends long text, period - and he ended these two texts with "I love you" - something else he never says. So when Suga got up there and just said a few brief words about how this was the happiest he'd been, that says worlds. He was in a terrible place emotionally when he wrote "Tear"; but when the guys decided to stay together, and when he was able to help JK and Tae, it lifted him up so much. I think that's part of why he seemed less affected than the others. He'd already been through hell and had stepped way out of his comfort zone to comfort the maknaes. When they decided to stay together, he must have felt a huge sense of relief and catharsis. No wonder he was happy the rest of the year.

[@wpjm60]

yes, this translation is not really accurate. even at hobi's part at 4.18 he said "because we went through so much"

[@BEOMIEPRINCESS]

It just makes me so emotional, because when I look at videos of earlier that year before they won the award you could have never guessed that they were literally suffering inside, they always look so happy. And that makes me think how many people around me are suffering and I just can't tell. My family can't even tell with me. I wonder if they go through the same stuff and that's why nobody notices your pain because everyone is going through pain. Everyone just are living a lie and putting on a poker face. Go hug your family make sure they're okay because you never know. I love your reactions, I love Bts, and I love ARMY. 💜

[@s.susanmarandi9080]

That is so true and very well put; you never know.

[@BEOMIEPRINCESS]

@S. Susan Marandi Thank you 💜

[@mimiv6801]

True, sometimes really asking someone how they are doing and wanting to hear the real answer....

[@annlef3652]

I saw it like 10 times and I'm still crying each time Hobi cried and each time Jin mention disbanding. I just want to hug every single souls that were united by BTS. I love every single one of you!

[@jesusfrrotocard3142]

I just wanna say happy birthday to hobi as we have one week left till his birthday 💜 but other than that when BTS cry Army cries with them and I'm happy as to how far we have come and what look for to the future of BTSXARMY💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@thaliadelarosa]

& from that moment Jin say, YoonGi Wrote "outro: tear" for the members. When Yoongi sang it for the members, they all cried together. That's why "tear" has a special weight in BTS. And it's my favorite song forever.

[@diannypereira4213]

Sorry guys I couldn't watched till the end cuz I lost everything when Hobi started to cry. I just can't handle it but I'm sending all my love to you. 🇧🇷

I always cry when I watch it, I cannot imagine a world without BTS, they held onto so much just to be where they are, and that is why they are my "ride or die" crew!! always support them to the end! I just love them so much

[@allyd-moon2875]

You guys are the most sincere reactors I've seen on KZbin. I love how you appreciate everything they say and do without focusing on only a few members, but rather loving them all. Watching your videos is one of my favourite things to do ❤

[@inkheart11]

I know a lot of people look at this as a heartbreaking and devastating moment and I for sure cried my eyes out for them when I watched it happen but honestly, I find it such a beautiful and solidify moment for BTS. Like this was them saying they had gone through something so so hard and almost broke apart but they came back stronger than ever? As more of a team and with their priorities in line and their happiness and love for music and their bond strengthened. That’s so amazing and they’ve only gone to bigger and better heights since. I find it way more inspiring than heartbreaking.

[@jaselleregulto5622]
