This is Claude. I have NEVER seen a comment section like this. Thank you very much, everyone!! I will definitely be back anytime you all want. It's so fun to explore new music and I had a lot of fun hanging out with Bryan.
Thank you once again for coming on the channel and giving BTS a chance, I can't wait to have you back! 💜
Feel hugged by us, Claude... We love to receive new (likely) members in our beautiful family!!!
We've also seen the changes in Bryan since he started his BTS journey so it's not just you. 👍😁💜
Hi Bryan, it was nice to see your friend Claude, you look like brothers lol. ❤
It was so cute to see Bryan excitedly explain little details to you (things only ARMY would know). Bryan went with my recommendation of Outro:TearLive at Wembley, right at the beginning of his journey and I think he should now share that with you too. Borahae 💜
That look when he referenced magic shop - that was such an Army look, like, "oh just you wait, i have so much more to show you". It's always nice to see unlikely men turn into armies, because you can literally see them re-evaluating their lives and their pre-conceived ideas.
Good friend that notice that this make you happy
He is a great friend!
Did you know that RM watched the last State of the Union address of Pres. Obama, saw him pull the mic off of the podium, drop it and threw his notes in the air...which is the influence for " Mic Drop"?
MIC DROP 👌🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love this song 🔥🔥
the army urge of explain every little detail about bts story bc we're so proud of them always gets me 😂💜
Wow as an Army, I appreciate how you explain BTS background to your best friend
When Claude said “I don’t think he touches the ground” it immediately reminded me of JK’s Euphoria during live concerts. Might be a good choice for next song!
I would love for you to show him A Guide to BTS by Taylor….💜
I love the conversation between you two! Also I appreciate the genuineness and open mindedness your friend gave to BTS. 💜
Thank you for watching!! 😊
Agreed. Metalheads tend to go in two directions - fiercely loyal to metal and metal only or open-minded to a multitude of different genres (me), there's no in between. 🤣
@@amazonbookworm1154 I've known some very cool metalheads in that first category too, who can find things that are similar to metal in anything. 😁
@@evantesseract737 Me too! 🤣
just for the fact that your friend watched extraordinary atty woo, i like him already...☺️
😄
Indeed... Great taste 🤘💜
I have been loving Kdrama for more than 18 years. Extraordinary Attorney Woo is the best drama in 2022. Right now The Glory.
The Busan concert live performance of "Mic Drop" has a rock feel to it. You should show you friend that as well.
BTS is all about love and acceptance. Nothing we like better than watching people discover BTS. Watch the hilarious Chaos of RUN BTS their self made behind the scenes variety show for insight into their characters.
Awww, supportive friends are the best! I hope he comes back to see some more.
Thankyou for inviting your friend on your channel. As usual your reaction is fantastic. He understands where you are coming from. I am a Senior Army from Australia 🇦🇺. Thankyou for your input and I hope to see you again, Borahea. Since following BTS I am learning Korean slowly, also learning the culture, history and food. BTS has opened up a whole new adventure for me at 76. I am waiting until 2025 when they all complete their Military Service. JIN, RM, JHOPE have released their Solor Albums and JIMIN'S comes out on 24th March 2023. 💗❤🧡💛💚🤍💙💜
Hello fellow Aussie ARMY💜🇦🇺
It was so fun seeing you explain the guys to someone! The student has become the teacher… I’m old enough to remember when you didn’t think Taehyung could dance 😂
🤣 I still get people commenting on that video
😂😂 Gahh this is so wholesome
I love that your friend has seen you glow!
nice reaction happy to see open-minded people who are ready to explore smth new.
Thank you for watching! 💜
‘On: Kinetic Manifesto’? It kind of depends on what type of music Claude likes.💜
it's common to see those who discover BTS and embrace them, become "better" versions of themselves. By that, I mean, people become more open, understanding and sincere - in turn, they are able to loosen up, laugh at the silly things and share their own stories as they empathize with others'. And to me, that's a rare gift to be given. So when I see people sharing BTS with other people, it warms my heart because so many people (more or less everyone) could use such a gift in their lives. also - their authenticity will stand against test of time. I know that for myself, no matter how much older I or they become, what I've learned and received from them will always be there - to quote Yet to Come - "deep inside your heart, there still lives a young boy."💜
I resonate with that, especially the last part. I definitely have an inner child, so to say. It reminds me to laugh more, see situations different, and remind me to be open-minded.
Claude sounds like a very genuine friend and respectful person, not to mention he has great taste in dramas! I really enjoyed Attorney Woo and highly recommend it. He gave some great observations and made meaningful connections between what you told him and how he understands the world, really liked his reaction. Although I feel like it's too soon to introduce it because there's so much content related to it plus it's related to the whole MOTS concepts, but at some later point he should watch/listen to Dionysus.
Thank you for coming on Claude and thank you for checking out BTS. We adore Bryan and would love to see more of you.
attorney woo was amazing..the members rm and jin actually recreated the infamous "woo to the young to the woo" scene in their own way it was amazing lol
I watched Extraordinary Attorney Woo is one of the best K-Dramas. She played her character well. She also is in the Kings Affection. V was in HWARANG. Also an great drama. Enjoyed watching u video. Thanks
Thanks for this. I love watching new people find BTS for the first time.
Like Claude a lot. He's good people, like you! I hope he comes back as often as he would like to. No pressure. 💜
Waiting for someone to mention the Ravenclaw beanie.. 😅 love this reaction
He actually made that hat and most of his clothes himself!
Yes, that beginning part everyone is doing a freestyle dance except Hobi’s first step. But it’s intentional and the moves are on beat and to style of the songs choreo
Wow! You became a BTS ambassador💜 You sounded so enthusiastic about them. I really enjoyed your conversation.
Omg I love attorney woo!! I am 50, and had just figured out through therapy shortly before watching it, that I was similar to her (vague purposely to avoid spoilers too) I loved her whale moments also 🙂 anyway, I like your friend he's open minded and cool hope to see more of him. I love seeing you stop and explain the members etc to him, I can see your pride in the boys, and I love it. I wish my friends would let me show them BTS. I've been ARMY for over 4 years and they still make fun of me for it and refuse to take the time to learn *why* I love them. They think I'm just silly for being 50 and liking them. Even when I tell them bts have literally saved my life. 💜
I LOVE when someone is open to something new without prejudgment. I discovered BTS at age 61 when JK went sailing thru the air on a hook over Wembly. It was the high notes and the energy… I’m like who the hell is this and why don’t I know about him?! I became disabled 5 years ago and have been struggling ever since to not give up. This is NOT what my life was supposed to be… but it is and BTS and Army has helped me to regroup and start to put things back again. My knee is never going to be what it was but it’s OK now because I have hope, joy and laughter and the future still holds brightness, love and so much hope. Thank you for being a part of this journey! Y’all rock!!!!
Thanks for sharing your story! It's stellar to hear that you have found positivity and love!
Oh yes, I like him 🥰 you got a great friend there Bryan. Thank you both for this video and hoping there will be more to come 💜
I hope he comes back on the channel too! I won't say what BTS song, but 1 of the 3 we listened to did make his Spotify playlist!
@@DestructiveMediaYT ooohhhh not even a tiny hint ? Or a little teaser sir please !? So we can start guessing the song ! 👀🤭💜💜💜 Ty for sharing your Friend with us and to BTS 🤘💜
You've explained so well Bryan. And this is so nice that your friend Claude is open for this. That's how new army's are made
I am so looking forward to seeing Claude discover more of BTS! 💜
I am so looking forward to seeing your friend discover more of BTS! 💜
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for a great reaction. Enjoyed your genuine natural comments and conversation. Looking forward to viewing the two additional reactions.
You should have your friend watch/listen to UGH.
Perhaps Bestie💜 would like DIONYSUS?!
Firstly off gotta say Claude has the cutest giggle I've heard in a long while. More importantly tho he obviously has an open mind because he's already watching K-dramas. Attourney Woo is great btw. Thanks for being so accepting Claude, great reaction.
That your friend appreciates the love and support we give you says it all. It's a blessing to have a friendship like that. I really enjoyed this reaction. Thank you 🙏🇦🇷❤️🙈
Welcome to Bryan’s Channel Claude! Thank you for giving BTS a chance and sharing your thoughts with us ARMY. Mic Drop (Steve Aoki remix) was my introduction to BTS in 2017. I was searching for a show called Drop the Mic and this song showed up in my search. I thought to myself what is this, clicked on it and loved it. It reminded me of the music I grew up with and instantly wanted to know who they were, why had I not heard anything from them before and what else do they have in their discography. The reason they grabbed my attention is because I completely stopped listening to music. In the early 2000s I didn’t like any of the new music coming out. Everything seemed to be cookie cutter. Like everyone was using a recipe to produce music. There was no originality anymore. Today’s artists were making covers of other songs. I got bored of it all. BTS was different. I started off loving the beats and choreography. I didn’t say lyrics yet because great music transcends language. You can be moved by music without knowing the lyrics. Then I started reading the lyrics and that was it I am a fan for life now. You will find in most cases the more upbeat the music the darker the lyrics. 😂 It still blows my mind how 7 of the most talented guys on the planet are in one group. Interesting fact if you look at a map of South Korea and connect each town the guys are from it makes a 7 and runs into Seoul. Bryan since Claude has some knowledge of BTS (already heard some of their music) I think it would be ok to have him watch The introduction to BTS Members by Taylor so he gets to know them and appreciate their Journey. I think it will help him understand why they write some of their lyrics. My journey after Mic Drop was I went back to their beginning and started from their to see how their music evolved from the beginning to when I found them. Welcome again Claude I look forward to watching your journey down the BTS rabbit hole. You will find not only are they great artists, writers, composers, producers, dancers, they are some of the most humble and funny humans and why us ARMYs are so protective of them. They are our life’s treasure that we love to share with others as long as they are respectful. Have a wonderful day guys. Borahae 💜🫰🇺🇸
I loved you and Claude together! Hope he comes back often. How lucky you 2 are to have had this friendship for so long.
Thank You Claude For Giving Our Boy's BTS A Chance, And Thank You For Being Such A Great Friend To Bryan. 💜💜 It Would Be A Pleasure For You Too Come Back & React To More Stuff From Our Boy's. 🥰🥰 Thank You Bryan For Your Awesome Reactions Hobi & The Rest Of The BTS Boys. 🤣🤣💜💜
we all come full circle haha from being introduced to bts and then becoming the introducer
Click faster than Jin angry rap at 💜ᗷTS love your channel
🤣🤣 I hope you enjoyed the reaction
I just came across your channel. It's amazing to see a fellow METAL fan giving BTS a chance. Especially showing your very good friend their awesomeness as well. I grew up listening to 80's rock (Van Halen, Dokken, Motley Crue, Tesla), grunge (Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden) and my love for nu metal, (KoRn, Deftones, Slipknot, and more). I NEVER EVER thought I'd listen to anything like BTS. I came across BTS during a very dark time in my life and it completely changed for the better. I won't get in too deep, but I am so thankful for BTS coming into my life during that dark time. My bias is SUGA a.k.a. AGUST D 😃 I'm dragging my BFF for more than 30+ yrs. (showing my age) along for his Oakland show on May 17th. She's never listened to anything from BTS, but she's down for the ride, like a best friend should be - (just like your best friend Claude!) HI CLAUDE!! 👋 Thank you for this video. I'm subscribing and watching ALL of your BTS reactions!!
Hello KDuns. Same. I did listen to pop growing up too, but kind of drifted away for a while. Games, KDramas, and anime have turned my gaze towards other genres and it has been a gift.
Thank you for subscribing, I hope you enjoy my future reactions!
I loved how this is a cycle hsuahsau your aunt watched mic drop with you and you knew almost nothing about bts so she taught you a little, and now you're a fan explaining those things for your friend with the same song XD it was very nice seeing you two talking, and he thanking us for being good to you was so nice of him saushuahs great friend. Also I'm just like him, normally have to see things more than once to like them, and bts for me definitely gets better with every listen
I'm watching like a proud aunt. Bryan is me when introducing BTS. I don't talk a lot but when it comes to BTS, words just flow, and I become like a passionate spokesperson. So fun to watch you guys 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Heyyy loved this reaction! It’s so nice seeing you discussing happily and enthusiastically with your friend! Thank you for this and thank you to your friend for giving BTS a chance! And the Magic Shop reference hahaha 💜💜💜 Have a nice day!
Thank you so much for watching!!
Glad that you included the BTS song Mic Drop in your reaction video. And yeah, with your kind words and well mannered personality, I agree when you said your bias is Jin. 🙂 From a proud BTS Army from the Philippines, and also your newest subscriber, 47 yrs old and happily married with a son almost just their age. 💜
I share BTS with a lot of people, and I'm not invested in making them love the music. I just want people to give them a fair shot. It's fine to not like it, just don't blow them off because they're kpop. 😄
Definitely invite Claude to introduce him to more content - as a 50+ yo Army that grew up listening to hair metal, heavy metal, grunge, etc - I would not have believed you if you had told me in my later years I would be all about a "boy band" especially one that didn't primarily sing in English, but we all know BTS isn;t just a "boy band" and here I am living my best life stanning 7 young men my kids ages.
Thank you for great reaction. I hope he will come back to hear another BTS song.
like a magic shop... you'll get that 💜
oh my goshhh I love how you pause and give a lil background about each member and your friend, Claude, is so geniune and interested . This is some of the reasons why I binge-watch your videos whenever I have time. You're my favorite reactor!!
😁💜
Claude seems like such a caring and genuine guy. Glad you’ve got such a great friend in your corner. Would love to see Claude again but not sure what music he is generally into to give suggestions. Maybe Not Today, RunBTS, or Danger.
Another great reaction! It was fun watching you share BTS with your friend. Maybe you should make him react to Taylor’s Guide to BTS Members with you 😊💜
Good idea!!
Well that was so much fun with the two of you! It is special to have good friends and be able to share your interests in a genuine and respectful way! Would love to see Claude back! 💜
You both have great chemistry, really obvious that u have been good friends for a while. Do bring him back for more if he's willing. Ps- Bryan, listen to ur frnd and definitely watch 'extra ordinary attorney woo' when u have time. If u haven't watched any kdramas, its a grt one to start with imo.
Been best friends since 4th grade!
@@DestructiveMediaYT sweet
@@DestructiveMediaYT WOW! 4th grade?!! That’s such a precious friendship
Claude you seem exactly like the kind of close friend I can picture for Bryan. He’s such a kind methodical reactor who really takes in the details. Thank you for wanting to give BTS a chance that’s all we ask and for most of us the prejudices against a “ K-pop boy band” keep those around us from giving something we’d love to share a chance. It honestly means a lot that you gave it a shot this was so fun to watch you two talk. Have a great week! 💜💜💜 Attorney Woo is one of the very best Kdramas!! Recommend to Claude Ma City or Attack on Bangtan Live for the fun of a live performance chaos.
If your friend watches Kdramas, he may have heard some of the vocal line in them. V did Christmas Trees in Our Beloved Summer, Jin did Yours for Jirosan, V & Jin did Its Got to be You for Hwarang, Jimin did With You in Our Blues. I have watched the first and the last shows and really enjoyed them, Attorney Woo is on my list also. You and your friend could react to BTS songs in Kdramas.
Mic Drop was also the first song I heard from BTS. I remember when on your first reactions you were a little bit hesitant, but now you're explaning someonelse and we can see the sparkles on your eyes and respect on your voice, at one point I got goosebumps. Thanks for this reaction, from a fellow "metalhead army" 💜🤘 Ps: your friend is cute.
I'm glad you liked the video!
I loved Extraordinary Attorney Woo!!! Her whale moments are wonderful
Thanks for the reaction, I really enjoyed watching it! 💜 Whenever you give a little talk during your videos it actually adds value to the content, and this video with the two of you wasn't an exception. I mean what's to dislike? - two genuine, nice people watching a good music video. Thanks also to your friend for coming on (btw, I think I got influenced and have to give attorney woo a try now... 😄)
Glad you enjoyed!
Attorney Woo is sooo good and great message. It is one of my favorite kdrama that I have seen. I also really like It’s Okay to Not be Okay, it has a great message.
Yes! I hope you like Attorney Woo!
8:47 extraordinary atty woo is a good one!😊🫰
Wohoo, Mic Drop is also one of my favorite songs. Yahoo, shoutout to all Hobi biases too. Hobi, I miss you, and Congrats on your graduation ceremony!🎉🎉🎉
Oh my love something like this supportive friend hope to see him back again soon. I can feel you are emotional on your friend intro thanking everyone 💜
It was nice to hear him say that, the support you all give me is amazing!
Army’s love you it’s because you are genuine and not afraid to show your emotions, next time please show him magic shop I can feel your best friend has a heart like you 💜and the introduction to the guy’s.
I really enjoy all of your reactions, but this one was special. Your friend had a very openminded take on BTS that was appreciated. More interactions would be great if he is so inclined. Thank you for sharing BTS with your friend, & him with us.
Uh love this reaction 💜 Thank you for introducing BTS to your friend Keep safe always
Loved how you were so passionate and cant stand still while introducing BTS to your friend. That's how you know you are truly army. Enjoy the process 💜 It made me happy that your friend was excited about you beeing excited. 🇬🇪
I absolutely adore this reaction from the both of you! It’s so amazing to see your journey Bryan, now YOU are the one being giddy to show BTS to your friend just as we were to show them to you! So much love to the both of you and I hope to see Claude back soon! 💜
Hi Claude💜💜welcome to the BTS rabbit hole💜💜💜 please have him come back💜💜💜💜 I loved the conversations u both had💜💜💜 Borahae💜💜💜💜Thank you Bryan💜💜💜💜💜💜
OMG I love his description or "spoiler" of Extraordinary Attorney Woo". I LOVE that show, and I love her whale moments! Loved this reaction! I'm about to binge the rest!
💜💜💜💜💜
Hobi is my bias too. Our sunshine☀️💛💜
Yaaay Bryan spreading the word! Exciting!! Heyy welcome welcome on the channel! Thanks for the positive attitude!!🫶🏽 Hope seeing you back soon on the channel. And your friendship seems super deep, heartwarming to see!
We have been friends for 20+ years, basically family.
Thank you for an awesome reaction and for being open to discovering BTS too. Welcome Claude
Thank you for the reaction and I agree extraordinary attorney woo is amazing!
Great reaction from Claude! Excited to see more reactions. 💜 Brian... your enthusiasm! And that twinkle in your eyes when you said Magic Shop.... 😂😂😂💜💜💜
So fun to see how proud you are of BTS now! That's what we’re here for and support. Nice friend, nice reaction!
Looking forward your next reaction with your best mate. ❤
The first BTS song I ever heard was Dynamite. Mic Drop is the song that made me take notice of them and sent me down the rabbit hole 💜💜💜
Ahhhh! I have been looking forward to this! So much fun! Thank you Claude for joining Bryan and being opening to listening to BTS. Hope you do come back again. I'm still what is called a Baby ARMY as BTS found me around August of 2022 and they have been an absolute blessing both musically and just for who they are as people, they bring joy.
I loved this! Your friend representing for Ravenclaw I see. 😜 I hope he comes back, he seems cool. And ARMY is always looking for new recruits!
Great reaction! Your bff seems very cool & chill... good vibes!!! Borahae 💜
He is a super chill guy!
I'm so glad I chanced upon this reaction channel. Bryan, and your friend Claude, you are allowing me to relive what it feels like when a newbie begins their journey into BTS, it's wonderful, your observations and reactions are so real, and also a mature perspective. I really enjoy your videos. Please continue to react to more BTS content.
I'm glad you enjoy my reactions, thank you for checking my channel out!
I second that💜 It's been a couple of months now that I'm watching @destructiveMediaYT 's journey with BTS chronologically and it warms my heart💜 I relate so much to you Brian as I'm a millennial too and metal head since ever, never was into hip-hop or rap.. until I was introduced to BTS along with my 11 years old (now) daughter in 2018... Thank youuu for your reactions Lots of love Keep it👍🏻👏🏻💜💜💜
You are a beautiful human being, dear Bryan... your friend seems to be too... what's exactly what I expected! I like his observations... I hope he falls into our awesome rabbit hole! 😜 Yeah! Black Swan is a very good choice! could Ugh be the next?
Hey Claude it is OK not to like something at the first view, I am like that too. However your friend Bryan probably knew that and he played Mic Drop for you, there is no way you can not like it at first view. He chose the right one. But I am sure other songs will take longer to stick to you. After you know a bit more about BTS make sure you react to the cyphers and the Cypher meddley live. Pleaseeeee Welcome to the rabbit hole Claude, you are in my friend, run now if you still see a bit of light, don't say after we haven't warn you 🤣🤣🤣
thanks to both of you😀💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Hey Bryan, enjoyed the video, thank you!! Appreciate Claude for checking BTS out and being open minded. I love Extraordinary Attorney Woo as well so I can relate to the “whale moment” he mentioned LOL hope to see him more if hes interested 💜💜 Borahae 🙏🏻
Welcome to the extended family! 💜🇨🇦
Claude seems to be a good friend, Bryan - it's the way he talks (about you). I'd like to see more reactions of you two together if he's down to that, no pressure tho.
He is an amazing friend, I am lucky to have him in my life
Would love to see his reaction to their debut songs. Since you were talking about how they started and their messages. Ie: No more dream, Bulletproof Pt 2 , Fire for example.
Great idea!
You're great both and i like the reaction i hope you could do more.
Thank you for watching, I hope he decides to come back on the channel too!
Would like to recommend ON for your friend. I'm an old metal head/hard rocker...ON is the one that nailed my army status. Mic Drop is a fave, yes, but ON is an *anthem*
Loved your description of RM as an old soul. It fits so well! Also, I loved seeing clouds excitement about attorney woo. Any person who can get that excited over a TV show makes me smile! I am the same
What a good surprise! Your interaction as best friends is amazing. Yes, we all like this reactor Brian so much from the beggining 😁👏💜
😄💜
Welcome Claude 💜
Hey Claude! Thanks for joining us today. I appreciate that as a first time viewer you brought some really great insight and impressions. Plus, you have a great laugh! Thanks for giving the guys a chance. 💜Gigi
