Omg nearly screamed when saw this. The man in the blue jacket is Jimin. You have now experienced the Jimin effect. Btw he is my bias. The Jimin effect attacks everyone I swear. But on the other hand Im so excited for you to dive deeper into them them. They have a lot of meaningful music.
hahaha I can see why! I can't wait to see more! 💙
And Jimin strikes again. Lol
@@Psynergic There are whole compilations of straight, male reactors questioning their sexuality over Jimin. The Jimin Effect is real.
@@IThink2Much Proven jet again
Nothing and no one is safe. My 105 lb chocolate Labrador called Louie is in LoVe w/ Jimin. 💖
The Man in the blue jacket- Jimin! The Man with blonde who is staring at your soul - Jimin The Man with dangly earring - Jimin The Man in blue denim jacket & smiling at you - Jimin The Man you need in your life, which you felt it before even knowing his most genuine, kind, adorable, compassionate, sweet & loving personality(that is why we all keep saying ‘Everyone needs Jimin in their life!’ & ‘Once you Jim-in, never Jim-out!’), his gorgeous extraordinary dance & performance artistries & his beautifully angelic & one of a kind vocal! Finally destiny has let you meet BTS & Jimin, our Beautiful Angel & Jimin’s magical effects is starting to work on you! 🥰🥰🥰💜💜💜
That joke about ‘Once you Jim-in, never Jim-out!’ is so funny. I'm super new to BTS so I haven't heard it until now. Might I ask why the purple hearts? I see it a lot on some BTS things but I don't know what it means (if it means anything lol maybe fans just like purple). Anyways you're right Jimin is awesome! I think RM is my fave so far but Jimin is a close 2nd. They're all wonderful though.
@@ZariDV The meaning of purple comes from the phrase "I purple you!" which was invented by member V which means "I will trust and love you for a long time" that's why this color has a very beautiful meaning for the fandom Besides being my favorite color ever💜💜💜💜💜 Sorry for some mistake in english, i'm still learning😅
@@kyralovegood821 thank you for explaining. That's such a sweet meaning. Don't worry about your English. It's wonderful! Keep up the good work. You're doing so well. I hope I can become that good at Korean some day.
@@ZariDV it’s the Color of ARMY too
Lol seriously sounds like his bias is quickly becoming Jimin 💜🤣
I also have a masters in clinical psychology so it’s nice to “meet” another person in the field. Their album Map of the Soul is based on Carl Jungian psychology. Welcome to the beautiful world of BTS…..The Bangtan boys are absolutely amazing people. They’re smart, funny, humble, compassionate, and incredibly musically gifted and they, of course, dance. They consider each other as family and live together much of the time. It’s wonderful to watch documentaries about them, but the best way to get to know them is by watching their variety show, Run BTS. Watching their show has helped through a very difficult year of losing my beloved father and going through a divorce. I guarantee that you will fall in love with this group.
So happy you found the channel, Lisa! I definitely cannot wait to see more from them soon! 😊
This is the most sincere reaction to BTS I've watched in a long time, because, you know, we ARMYs know people is doing reactions just for the clout, but your face can't hide the confusion, the excitement and well, now Park Jimin is the owner of your soul. Please keep on the reactions to BTS.
BTS has best lyrics in kpop and as a boyband. Their lyrics often went against government too because they highlighted the injustices in Korea, they have tons of songs about self love, women empowerment.
Stop saying "best". Its like u don't know anything about kpop except BTS. Their lyrics are super good but the word "best" is not really suits anyone especially in lyrics
@@lalisalamilalisalami maybe for you that " Their lyrics are super good but the word "best" is not really suits anyone especially in lyrics" but for others its literally the Best tho..
@@lalisalamilalisalami the way you said "stop saying the best" like bruh just read the comment bro and plus its the best for others tho if you disagree just scroll or watch other vids. l
@@lalisalamilalisalami its not for everyone kid. BTS lyrics are in their own league

Actually, if there's one corporation I personally don't mind, it's BTS' company. When BTS started, the company was really small and actually almost went bancrupt. BTS sort of built it up. The founder of the company and BTS' boss also genuinelly loves music and the whole idea behind BTS was to bring someone to the scene who would share their real stories and feelings through their music. So BTS were also all heavily encouraged to write their own songs and lyrics, which they do pretty often. The video you saw in your recommended The Most Beautiful Life Goes On is a pretty good sneak peek into their history and into why they're as big as they are. Also, since you're a mental health professional, BTS are probably gonna be really good to explore for you. They have so many songs focused on mental health and personal development and I'm really curious about what you'd have to say about them. There are too many songs that have this element, but just to start with some of the ones that have music videos: - Black Swan - Fake Love - Spring Day - Life Goes On Each of those songs focus on a very different topic, which is why I picked them. Each of them is also from a different era. Thank you for this reaction. I hope I'll be seeing more. I'm definitely subscribing :)
I'm going to have to second every single thing Michelle said, including the choices of songs, but I'd like to add -Stay Gold (which is actually in Japanese) & N.O (from 2013) ^_^ I'm providing links: Stay Gold: kzhead.info/sun/bK2Bp9WcsWqOm68/bejne.html N.O: kzhead.info/sun/pZmAkaV9f6h-nWg/bejne.html (PS. Dimples/Daddy is RM/Rap Monster/Kim Nam-joon, the lovely high pitch singing with the dangly earrings (though a lot of them wear those, but in your case...) is Jimin/Park Ji-min, and the other one that keeps making eyes at the camera, the fallen angel w/ cut wings, & natural baritone is V/Kim Tae-hyung! Hope this helps some! The others are Suga, Jin, J-Hope, and Jungkook.
Not to mention that BTS themselves is also shareholders of the company
Luv your request
Agreed. I've been following kpop since the 90s and so far, BigHit was the one I didn't mind as much for a company.
and ON (the Kinetic Manifesto as well as the official MV versions) heck, pretty much anything off their Map of the Soul albums...
Omg mental health wise by BTS? Too many! We have Magic Shop, ON, Fake Love, Epiphany, 2!3! I love them all and they've helped a lot of us so much. Thank you for your reaction, I hope you'll continue 🥰
Heck all BU marked MVs and videos fit that bill XD -I need You -Butterfly -on stage : prologue -Run -Epilogue: Young Forever -All WINGS Short Film (1-7) -Highlight Reel '起承轉結' -Euphoria : Theme of LOVE YOURSELF 起 Wonder -Fake Love -'Epiphany' Comeback Trailer
Don’t forget truth untold!!
Pied Piper as well!!!
Black swan too please
yes jimin is all ... that ...
Blood, Sweat and Tears is based on the book Demian by Herman Hesse which has a lot of psychology and Freudian influences itself. I think you will love a detailed dive into this song and its meanings
Pausing in the middle of Blood, Sweat, and Tears (the third song), to let you know that the man in the blue jacket is Jimin (the same dude who was wearing the sequinned jacket in DNA - with blond hair, and the light blue jean jacket in Dynamite - and yes, he has a few tats 😂)
it looks like you have suffered the "Jimineffect" he was the man in blue and blond in DNA. Bts was a crucial helf for me when my health declined and i have met many new friends trough liking them. Blue & Grey is a good song to anylize and you will have materials for years with BTS i guess you already know that lee know from stray kids used to be a backgrounddancer for BTS.
I actually didn't know that about Lee Know! That's really cool - thank you for that information! I can't wait to see more from them soon! 💙
@@Psynergic here is a small compilation of him dancing beside them. kzhead.info/sun/n9SbpLt9roSYn3k/bejne.html
I was going to suggest "Life Goes On" & "Blue and Grey" as well. They wrote these songs in reaction to the pandemic and as a way to help themselves cope with their feelings of frustration and isolation! They gave us all a voice! 😭
I was looking for this comment. We all fall for Jimin.
One you Jim-IN, you cant JIM-out they say. There’s a lot in their discography and they have solo songs to. As a psychologist, you can try Jimin’s filter 💜
Fake love and Black Swan is really great if you wanna do some more mental health focused songs Jimin solo songs (blue jacket man): Filter, Lie and Serendipity
Meanwhile promise be like: *Crying in corner* 😭
Lol
That man is Jimin. You've been hit by the Jimin effect and once you Jim-in you cannot Jim-out. He was the one with the dangly earrings in Dynamite, the cute blonde with the sparkly jacket in DNA and the siren in BS & T. BTS have an amazing discography and you will enjoy practically all of their music. If you do fall down the rabbit hole there are a couple of good introduction to BTS videos and I can't wait to see your reaction to Jimins solo songs.
Yeah, we all need more Jimi in our life
If you want depth, drive deep into any lyrics written by the leader RM (the tall member with the deep voice, dimples, and daddy vibe). I have studied psychology and am a counselor, and I would love to take a walk through that man’s brain. He uses literature in many of his lyrics and speeches. It’s know that between the three rapper, RM is the one who analyzes the world and puts that in his music. All members are AMAZING, but I am fascinated by RM
Awesome! Thank you so very much for the suggestion! It's also always nice to have a fellow mental health provider around too 😊💙
@@Psynergic I loved your reaction to the videos. If and when you go deeper into the lyrics, I’d love to hear your thoughts. The songs from the “map of the soul” albums are particularly interesting since RM and the other writers reference Carl Jung. DKDKTV has some amazing explanation videos
Also as a side note, RM also known by his real name of Nam Joon has an IQ in the genious range of I believe 148.
@@jeaniejbutler4911 Very true which is another reason I find him fascinating! Also on a more personal level he’s kind of a klutz, as am I so anytime people tease him for being clumsy, I get it
he’s literally written 90% of their music since debut. if you’re listening to any of their discography it has joons penmanship 95% of the time.
I especially love these men because my teenage daughter who suffers from paralyzing anxiety and depression was literally saved by their music. Their lyrics touched her heart and kept her on this earth. She is doing much better now, but we are eternally grateful to these amazing men. As you get to know them, you can't help but love them all. They are such excellent human beings and are a gift to the planet.
This made me cry. I’m happy for you and your daughter
You are hilarious! I love your reaction! It was Park Jimin in Dynamite, Park Jimin in DNA and Park Jimin in Blood Sweat and Tears, it's like they say, 'When you're Jim-in you can't Jim-out". Welkom to the fandom! I will accompany you on your Bangtan Sonyeondan journey 💜
Nothing here, just Jimin snatching one more man.. and RM giving people Daddy vibes. .. our boys just blow everyone's mind .. Blood sweat and tears is the real gem. I recommend watching.. the truth untold and spring day with lyrics.. it has such beautiful and deep lyrics.
hahaha It's true 😂 Thanks for the recommendation! 💙
I laughed so much when he said RM has daddy vibes. Of the posts and stories that have been written!
@@MandiKS1020 we all have been just drooling over daddy Namjoon for years...
@@PriyaSingh-mx2jh I am relatively new to be task myself but that’s definitely true of me within the last six months😂😂
@@Psynergic I really liked your reaction but the comments are filled with toxic fans from other fandoms
They have a whole album series themed around the journey to loving oneself.
Oooh! Really cool, I will definitely have to check that one out! Thank you for mentioning! 💙
@@Psynergic “Magic Shop” is a track that surrounds a concept about how if fans look inside their hearts, they will find a magic shop where they can exchange their fears for happiness and find the love all of the members have for them. The song is inspired by James Doty’s autobiography Into the Magic Shop: A Neurosurgeon’s Quest to Discover the Mysteries of the Brain and the Secrets of the Heart and its concept of opening up one’s heart and loving oneself and others. During the BTS press conference on May 24, 2018, Jungkook described the track as a song that could be comforting for ARMYs-whenever they felt tired, sad, or frustrated they could just have to open the door in their heart to the magic shop and there they would find the seven members of BTS waiting for them. kzhead.info/sun/qNh6o5ajooV5gmw/bejne.html BTS Magic Shop - LIVE with Eng Subs
“i want to know their names” hahaha…there’s no stopping after this. Jimin-effect (my baby Jiminie) in full effect on you, will surprise you over and over with his talent, duality and charming personality (they all will). They are awesome young men. My healing song is Magic Shop. It brings me comfort and happiness. Somehow, it makes me feel loved like they wrote it for me. here is a live performance link: kzhead.info/sun/ocWBntZthYeQnnk/bejne.html
I cracked up after he said that because that's how it starts! That's how all ARMY start mwuaahahaha Welcome to the fandom.
@@kristinv223 coming to say the same. Nearly every ARMY has this same beginning story 🥰🤣 (diff biases, same end result ot7!) 💜💜
Lol, yes. l just want to know their names…” Is the birth cry of Baby ARMYs.
15:43 yes that was my face also the first time I watched this MV. The Jimin effect (the one in blue) strikes again 😉😅. I’m so excited for your journey with BTS. They are all amazing musicians and performers, specially live 💜💜💜. Since a lot have recommended Blue and Grey, which I also love, I’d suggest Black Swan.
You would just love 'Serendipity' it’s a Song sung by Jimin and it made me fall in love with his voice (the guy with the blue jacket 😂)
I would recommend ´Lie´ !
Filter!
when i was too anxious to the point i couldn’t sleep, i play serendipity and bam off to dreamland
That's guy you were gushing over with the blue jacket is Jimin:) he's my bias! I can't wait for you to react to more of Bts
OMG your reaction to blood sweat and tears was EVERYTHING 💜 I feel like as a mental health care professional you’d really enjoy digging into the lyrics to ‘The Last’ (it’s a solo track by BTS Suga who goes by ‘Agust D’ when he does his solo work)
Thank you 💙💙
You beat me to this suggestion. I've always wanted someone with a degree or background in mental health to react to that song. There is so much raw emotion in it and really helped me through my diagnosis
If you want to break down something more Mental-Hearth_otiented, You should definitely react to BTS's Jin's "Epiphany" - this is a song that always helps me out of a mental break down, and its lyrics touches my hearth every time! PS. Watch the live performance, it's mesmerazing!
When you said you liked their “little nods to artistry”, that’s when I realized that BTS is definitely for you :) BTS’ music is filled with art, symbolism, and literature. The first 2 songs you reacted to definitely showed more of BTS’ “pop” vibe, which they do from time to time, but I promise they are so much more than that. Hint: they started out as a hiphop group 😉 So much of their music talks about deeper issues such as mental health, society etc. It’s an experience like no other! So excited for you to dive deeper into their music, and to learn more about them! 💜 Welcome!
BTS can't make music lol. Btshit can't sing,dance,rap,make songs. Exo is real kings
G DRAGON THE KING -
@@exokings7849you literally described your flop fav group lol cry harder babe
Oh i can see you and BTS Suga will connect in personal level lol😁. Check his song 'the last" he talks blantantly about his depression. Also BTS has a lot of comforting song you can dig in such as 'magic shop' and 'answer:love myself'
Ooh, I see there's a lot already I will have to dig into! I'm excited to see more!
I would also recommend Suga’s “First Love” which is the song that made him my bias. It’s about his love of music (his piano) and how it’s grown with him over the years. I never enjoyed rap before I heard Suga and RM . Looking forward to watching you fall into out rabbit hole…💜
I also love Cypher 4… I am a new fan. Lol I don’t listen to rap but they made me 😂 the live performance of Cypher Medley, which you can watch on the channel “Enjoy BTS More,” was amazing
Blood, Sweat& Tears gets everyone. It got me too, back when it came out 😂😂
Usually it takes reactors most than a few videos to go through the motions of armyfication, but in one video you had everything: the SIR!, Jimin effect, acknowledged Namjoon's dimples and Daddy status, liking the depth (which is what they're all about). You will enjoy the journey.
You got hit by Park Jimin!!! 😂😂😂 once you Jim-in you can’t Jim-out! He’s the one in the blue jacket. Beside the fact that Blood Sweat and Tears is a great song, the MV crushed souls and hearts everywhere! I felt personally attacked by them the first time I watched it. Great reaction!
oh you have a LOT to look forward to in regard of breaking down mental health lyrics from bts. check out these songs: bts - magic shop bts - answer: love myself bts - tomorrow bts - blue & grey bts - fly to my room bts - life goes on bts jin - epiphany bts rm - map of the soul: persona bts suga - interlude: shadow bts jhope - outro: ego agust d (suga) - the last bts rm - moonchild bts rm - forever rain aaand many more.
Thank you for recommending!! I'm excited to check out more of their videos! 💙
@@Psynergic oh!! and dont forget bts - ON. really looking forward to your journey with bts!!! good luck!!
These are good suggestions
Great suggestions!
BEAUTIFUL SONGS!!!
I would say definitely dive deeper into BTS. I struggle with mental health and some of their songs have hit hard to reach places. It's cathartic for me mostly. But their awareness & honesty about their own struggles is what sticks with me the most. I also love the way you react! I am the same with some of the comments.
Aww thank you! 💙
The one in the blue jacket in Blood, Sweat and Tears, is Jimin. The one playing the organ in that song is Suga (who you said was cute in DNA); and if you are interested in looking at their songs from a mental health perspective I would recommend his solo songs (performed under the name Agust D), specifically "The Last". It is beautiful, honest, painful, and inspiring.
Holy shit! You are not prepared for this rabbit hole ^^ I just know you are going to love the boys, their mindset and their lyrics in their songs are incredible, especially in the mental health and psychology... From Hermann Hesse to Carl Jungs map of the soul... Very excited for your Journey :D Oh and you were talking about the company... usually i agree with you, but BTS and Bighit are an anomoly in the industry. If you look closely in the old intro to their songs it says: "Bighit, Music & Artist for Healing". You'll find that this statement accompanies BTS through their whole career. I'd love to see your reaction to songs like "Black swan", "fake love", "blue and grey" or "life goes on" and some of the fan made introduction videos and documentaries! Youll get to know them and their stories :) ooookay this comment was way too long, I'm just very excited! Thanks for reacting!!
lol I'm always just jumpin' into these rabbit holes...but that's the fun part about life I suppose! Can't wait to see more! Someone on Twitter already began showing me some really awesome things about Bighit, so I'm like FINALLY being okay with a company... It's still a music corporation, so it'll take a little to convince me fully but I'm open to it! 😁💙
@@Psynergic I highly recommend Rise of Bangtan - it takes you from predebut to current and shows just how different BigHit are. PD Bang (the boys CEO) is the 8th member of BTS. He is loved and respected by them as an older brother.
@@Psynergic In K-pop company creates groups. It is the same for BTS, but in this time it is BTS creating big hit back, into the biggest k-pop company in Korea.
@@beccal.5369 that is a great idea! I surely will watch ROB with him and ARMY! 💜 And .. we don't mind long videos
@@beccal.5369 Upp!!! Rise of bangtan is best
Yeees Jimin! I can't even claim I called it cause I mean Jimin is every mans bias (Mr husband included) but gladly surprise that you also loved my baby RM! Blood Sweat and Tears was the song that made me an army, I listened to Dynamite then I went on a binge and bst was like o Hi you belong to us now... I will insist on The truth untold for the analysis is a powerful when someone is beginning to deal with depression
I adore when people show love for RM!
I think "Answer:Love Myself" by BTS is amazing for the mental health..
16:38 (the blue jacket) this is my boy JIMIN 💜 KOREA IT BOY ONCE YOU JIM-IN, YOU CAN'T JIM-OUT Liking JIMIN is a path of no return.
The man in the blue is Jimin hes amazing ot7 but Jimin is bias his voice his dancing so excited for you to get into them they are all incredble
Thank you! I can't wait to learn more about them! 💙
I recommend: -The most Beautiful Life Goes On: A Story of BTS (2021 update) by Asian Theory -Who is BTS? by Xceleste -Who is the seven Members of BTS? by Ida S. -The Rise of Bangtan Series by The Rise Of Bangtan *Remember you won't know their stories in just one video 😊
Thank you for the recommendations!! I really appreciate it! 💙💙
@@Psynergic Personally I highly recommend this new introduction get to know the members individually called: BTS member introduction by Taylor Nakamoto
Hey, you mean ‚This is BTS‘ by xCeleste ☺️
@@amberpearce710 Yes, I also think this one is great
Personally I don’t like the introduction done by The Asian Theory as it’s terribly biased and not OT7. The one done by IdaS is fantastic & XCeleste has also some really great videos of other topics including one about the BT Universe. Totally recommend The Rise of Bangtan too if you want a more in depth look at their entire journey 👍
Park Ji-Min is the guy in the blue jacket. Dangly earrings, tattoos, sequined jacket, the voice of an angel and dancing like he doesn't feel the effects of gravity..
Loved this reaction, i was laughing all through out. Yes, jimin likes wearing earrings and has tattoos. His power is insane. And BST is ICONIC. Love how you were able to get the reference and appreciate their artistry
Blood Sweat and Tears is alluring on face value, but it has a lot more to unpack. I suspect you as a psychologist might enjoy discovering it. Also, watching your reaction here was like witnessing something magical, like a birth of a universe or the exact moment when a person falls in love. xD
😲Very poetic way of saying! Thank you for that 💙💙
I agree witj Merlil. Dive deep to Blood, Sweat and Tears please. You’ll discover more. There’s the Bangtan Universe you really really need to discover, more so that you’re a psychologist. I promise you’ll see something magical 😉
@@Psynergic As an empath, I thoroughly enjoy experiencing BTS with you. 💜
@Merlil Beautifully stated!!! 💖
Baby Army here! So glad you did Blood Sweat and Tears! There is so much symbolism within the song and the video! This era was set on some interesting concepts! Also the man that caught your eye in every video was Jimin Park 😊 Edit: yeah don't know why I put Jimin Park instead of Park Jimin 😅 Also I recommend House of Cards and if you are really interested to go down the rabbit hole, I recommend checking out the BU (BTS universe) which starts with I Need You the original version. But I would express a TW before reacting to it.
It was definitely one of my favorite music videos - a lot to see and think about, which always gets my attention! 💙
@@Psynergic his name is park Jimin the man in blue
@@Psynergic Jimin affects Lol 😭
@@Psynergic the guy in blue jacket is also the man in sequenced jacket in DNA. once you jim-in you can't jim-out lol
@@Psynergic you should react to Filter by Jimin.
Blood, Sweat and Tears never fails to amaze anyone who is new to BTS. They have a whole universe for this, you may want to watch some summarization for it. It's Bangtan Universe, most of their music videos and contents are connected to a certain plot, you might be interested with it.
THE JIMIN EFFECT EMANATING THROUGH THIS WHOLE VIDEO IS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😂😂😂 Idk where I landed but I’m loving it here😂😂
The guy in the blue jacket is park Jimin, the king of kpop and my ultimate bias! i can’t wait for future bts reactions, they are truly an incredible group with an amazing discography, live performances etc. even their personalities and charisma are great and they’re all handsome!
BTS gays , overrated. Armys are 8 years old girl screaming for 7 gays who can't sing well. EXO BETTER
Lolz.. 😂😂😂"I gotta learn their names" is how it starts for everyone.. 😂 BTS is a genre itself, hoping u take ur time to understand our boys . 💜💜 Thanks for this 👍🏻.
And if you are even a Little Face Blind, its gonna take Flash Cards and Drill Downs to be able to distinguish each one consistently....but they're all Delicious.
Popular opinion: BTS is medicine for the world's mental health. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Every time he reacts to Jimin being on scream I found myself audibly saying, "I know." Lmao 🤣
Blood Sweat & Tears mv is tied to the theme of the temptation (26:01 the signboard behind them sais Temptation), but that's not all the meaning, it's not just the metaphorical story about how we always want bad things. the MV and the whole concept of Wings album and its short films (don't try them yet, you need to be really indepth with BTS Universe to appreciate them fully) - in another words the whole era is based on symbolism connected to the Herman Hesse's book Demian, where the main character (MC) explores his psyche while growing up (spoken lines by RM in this MV and short films are quotes from the book). Theme goes along with coexistence of 'dark' and 'light' in our lives. MC was taught to see only the good side of the world, which is wrong, because the world isn't perfect and has bad side too. One can't live fully embracing just the good. You should accept both. The quote from the book that i really like is MC's thoughts: 'Why are only pleasant things attributed to the God if he created the whole universe? Are not both the light and dark sacred?'. The visuals of mv follow this theme: boys grew up and now facing new temptations to overcome or succumb to it thus they are acting defiantly, as if trying to seduce the viewer. There's a lot of pieces in the MV that are full of symbolism: every picture, statue, sound, object • an apple which means sin both in the religion and the book. Jimin is connected to an apple specifically, but they also all have an apple on their plate in the last supper scene (17:02) • green color also plays the role of a bad things like a devil's blood or a poisonous absinthe reputed to be a hallucinogen and banned in some countries. Namjoon is connected to the absinthe, his lines are "But your wings are wings of the devil. In front of your Sweet is bitter bitter" (16:12). behind the sweetness of the drink (absinthe is often drunk with sugar) lies its real essence of bitterness. it symbolises succumbing to temptation and denying the real world in favor of an illusion • a blindfold that keeps one from seeing the worlds as it is - then when blindfold is gone you see green tears (20:08) • Black and white doors on the sides of the “The Fall of the Rebel Angels” picture that can be representing the inner fight of good and evil (15:13). “The Fall of the Rebel Angels” itself depicts the fall into hell of angels who rebelled against God, they turn into ugly monsters and good angels give them battle. In fact, this is the main idea of the struggle between good and evil, the choice of your side in this battle. there were also sculptures of an angel and a demon on the sides of background in the set for the choreo as you noticed • behind Jungkook's back is a painting of Icarus (16:44). I think everyone is familiar with Greek mythology and is aware that Icarus was presented with wings, but he could not resist the temptation and flew too close to the sun, causing the wax in his wings to melt so he fell. The story echoes the ideas of the song and the title of the album itself: "WINGS". Behind Tae when he jumps from the balcony is "The Fall of Icarus" too (17:45) • a kiss of a fallen angel as an acceptance of a darker side and resolution of the inner chaos. Above the mirror in the MV (20:13) there's a Nietzsche quote (who also has a lot to do with the book's ideology): 'You must have a chaos inside you to give birth to a dancing star'. It's a reference to Nietzsche's ideas about a superman - a creature who, in his power many times surpasses an ordinary person, denies fear and regret, and uncompromisingly follows the chosen path, being the creator of his own destiny. The superman is described in his book "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" and the ideas from there closely connect with "Demian" MC in the book has a few mentors, with help of who he learns life - and you can see that in the beginning of the MV every younger member is paired up with older one + Yoongi playing organ is a direct reference to the one of MC's mentors. Jin (the one who was looking at the painting and kissing the angel) is an observer just like the MC in the book. You also can notice that the rest of the boys are divided into 'good' and 'bad': • Namjoon drinking absinthe and subverting yet innocent Jungkook into it (16:06 Namjoon lights up green candle, 16:34 the wax drops on Jungkook's finger, 16:44 Jungkook licks it) • Jimin having an issue with temptation (holding apple) and Yoongi trying to save him from it (closing his eyes with a hand or a blindfold) (17:42) • Tae being the fallen angel himself (19:53) and Hoseok representing hope and shooting a colourful arrow to him (17:11). I think Hoseok's theme is more prominent in the Japanese version of the mv (it's COMPLETELY different, but be careful, Japanese releases can get blocked). J-hope also has the statue of Pieta behind him, that has the meanings of piety, compassion I would say that especially from Jimin-Yoongi pairing in this mv you can tell that there's no answer what is right: good or evil. The apple is the sin, but the sin is the part of the world. Neglecting it and being blindfolded prevents you not only from "bad" things but from living a life and being yourself: the blindfold holds Jimin to a closed door and doesn't let him go (18:27) the Nietzsche quote also give a hint that hiding from bad may actually be worse then the bad itself, because without accepting all sides of self one can't reach their full potential. and BTS has a whole another era talking about exploring one's self So the story is about exploring the world in its good and bad in order to explore your own self and become something greater
BTS has some heavy topics in their solo works outside of the group, but the group itself also has some very introspective songs. The Love Yourself series is meant to be heard in order, but there are songs outside of that series worth analysing: Rain Tomorrow Dead Leaves Butterfly First Love Awake Reflection Lost A supplementary story: you never walk alone My time Black Swan Interlude: Shadow Louder than bombs UGH Blue & Grey Dis-ease
I'm still a baby army, so thanks for letting me know about songs that has deep meaning, thanks a lot!

"I need more of this man (Jimin) in my life" - me, everyday, literally
The one you keep gushing over is Jimin! He is my bias! LOVE all the boys, but Jimin just melts my heart!
I subscribed for your Stray Kids content originally, but I'm totally onboard for your BTS journey too! BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS has whole papers and videos on its meaning, so lots to enjoy about it. THAT guy is Jimin - seems like your bias may have already found you! BLUE AND GREY is beautiful too, and for days when everything just gets too much I recommend NOT TODAY as the anthem of anthems!
yay! I'm so happy you're on this journey with me! I can't wait to learn more! 💙
Jimin is still getting all the guys😂
G DRAGON IS KING
i had no idea you hadn't heard BTS, you'll have so much fun! They have a whole series of videos that connect music videos, short films, trailers, notes, webtoons (etc) to make a cohesive storyline known as the BU, which touches a lot of psychological themes and mental health, they even reference Carl Jung through a whole trilogy of albums titled "Map of the Soul". The thing with the storyline is that it requires a lot of attention because it is long and goes very deep, and since many fans love it so much they make the mistake of recomending it to people really early on so some reactors just don't get it and it gets frustraiting because they don't even know the boy's names, get their roles in the story mixed up and miss many details lol Because of your background I'd love to hear your take on the BU and see your journey of falling into the BTS rabbit hole, but for now just know that it exists sghdh have fun getting to know them 😊
Thank you for the explanation! I do love deeper meanings, so I'll be looking forward to digging in a bit more to those!
@@Psynergic 😍💕
@@Psynergic if u listen more songs by BTS u would definitely be an army
@@Psynergic by the way army is their fandom name
“I gotta learn their names, i gotta know know who they are” is the start of going down the rabbit hole, that is BTS 💜 The narration in Blood, sweat and tears, you gotta discover where it came from. Im excited for you.
So the guy you liked in every video, jean jacket and dangly earrings in Dynamite, Blond in sequin jacket in DNA, and Blond with the blue velvet in Blood Sweat and Tears, is JIMIN!!! He's my first bias. He's beautiful inside and out, and has a gorgeous voice! Army calls what you are feeling - The Jimin Effect! 💜💜💜💜💜💜 Also Blue and Grey is sooooo beautiful. See if you can listen to a live version.
I recommend "magic shop" and "love yourself answer". Those songs are like my comfort songs and are very motivational to me. "21st Century Girls" is also a great song talking about Female empowerment. It's actually a song they released in response to one of their older songs called "War of Hormone" which got a lot of negative feedback for its lyrics. Baepsae is also a great song talking about problems in society (There is an explained video by DKDKTV that explains it very well.)
Magic Shop feels like a hug when you need it the most.
Magic Shop feels like a hug when you need it the most.
I was about to comment the same about 'Magic Shop' and 'Love Yourself Answer' (esp. the Live Performances), but I would have also added 'Zero O'Clock'.. 😊💜
@@Rayna_90 Ohh that didn't even cross my mind....Also Epiphany
@@taetaespineapple8990 BTS sucks, Exo better
The guy with the blue coat is Jimin, he has solo songs like Filter, Serendipity, Lie and Promise they are all great songs. I hope you can also react to their other songs Outro:Tear, Spring Day, Epiphany and Nevermind. Thank you
Jimin "Filter". Also, dimples with the cheekbones from the gods is Namjoon (RM). They're all impressive. Great background, great relationship, great talent... They're the best out there. Taking the world by storm.
By now u already know who is in that blue jacket. He my man my bias. My reaction when i first time saw bts mv i was impressed by how good look n handsome their are but the moment i saw jimin i know i was in love. Jimin have different charm n aura. #jimin #btsjimin
The blue jacket guy in blood sweat and tears is jimin.....he has such a nice voice... He has such a freaking beautiful high pitched voice and he is such an amazing dancer too .... Also I've been watching your bl and stray kids reaction and the moment the notification for this video came I was so freaking excited..... Love your reactions .... Love you from India 😁😁
awww thank you Prateeksha! 💙 I can't wait to see more of their music soon! 😊
He’s lead vocalist of BTS
@@Psynergic You're welcome 😁 .... Yes I am also excited to see more content for sure .... And also can you also check out TXT and Enhypen
@@rikhmjustsomeguywithmousta4971 absolutely 😊
@@rikhmjustsomeguywithmousta4971 I think that comment might be a little confusing to anyone that isn’t familiar with Kpop terminology. Lead vocal just means that he is part of the vocal line along with Jin, Tae & JK. The hierarchy is main, lead then sub. So in BTS’ case it’s JK (main), Jin, Tae & Jimin (lead) then JHope (sub), although RM & Suga’s vocals have improved so much in the past couple of years they could probably be added as sub vocals as well.
HYBE (BigHit) is actually a pretty good company, BTS themselves are part owners of it, they have a very close relationship with the Chairman also.
Father son relationship
recent development yes they are shareholders, but didn't the ceo step away to concentrate on producing?
@@sc33h3o3 stepped down as CEO, is still the Chairman.
Fuck btshit
The guy in the blue jacket is JIMIN (Park Jimin). Don't worry it happens to all when they see jimin, it's the "JIMIN EFFECT"🐣
The Man" is Jimin. My favorite song of his is "Lie". One of the best songs and interpretations I've ever heard. And you have to listen to "Black Swan". You won't regret it, but put subtitles, the lyrics are very beautiful.
Don't be shocked that they are handsome because all of the members litetally belongs to the Most Handsome Man in the world, 2 of the members won the first place of Most Handsome in the world because they literally are, and one of the members was called bu face experts as the most perfect face of a man.
Don’t forget one of them also topping the sexiest man list multiple times as well 😊😉
You would love Fake Love for dissecting lyrics!
Thank for the recommendations!! 💙
@@Psynergic totally agree! Seeing your reaction to Blood, Sweat & Tears I couldn’t help but think of Fake Love, you should check out the extended version though. Also there’s a Japanese version of Blood, Sweat & Tears that is “interesting” you might like to watch 😉 Oh & you should check out a choreography video of it too, you’ll be blown away 👍
@@karenhenry8196 all of those exist? Oh dang - so many things for me to check out!

Once you Jim-in, you'll never Jim-out
BTS is the pioner on talking about thus kind of topics bcs in Korea it is pretty much banned no one really talks about those issues, BTS became what they are today bcs they were pretty genuine artists who shared the struggles they had as group and individuals too. Nowadays, since BTS has amazed LEGENDARY status, kpop new generation is trying supper hard to 'tacle' this kind of topics too. (you know since BTS became popular by sharing their autentic selves trough music) but it only feels as a follow the lead since you cant really replicate genuineness. However it means a lot the fact that BTS encourage pple to talk about these things and in return they have gained pples hearts and trust. You wont regret diving into a world full of rich lyricism and introspection, their music really has changed the way kpop is seen across the world.
I would love to see your reaction and hear your thoughts on Suga's solo "The Last" (Suga is one of the rapper of BTS and also known by his alias AgustD) He talks about his mental health and depression at early age. Generally about his dark past.
Well, Suga/Agust D (BTS) "The Last" if you seek mental health...
Thanks for the recommendation! 💙
that one is a personal song for me. the man is a literal genius i can never get over it
He JimIN in seconds. Must be a record.
Jimin is the one who you were asking about he is my bias and is a beautiful dancer you should check out Black Swan were he does a lot of solo dancing
We have a saying “Once you Jim-In you can’t Jim-Out.” Love the reactions.
As someone who has ups and down on my mental health issue, bts song helped me a lot... Zero o clock, epiphany (jin solo), magic shop, answer love myself, blue and grey, and many more..maybe u wanna give this song some of your perspective (these song sounds better on live performance)
Omg he needs to watch Fake love by BTS!!! Btw the man in the blue jacket is Park Jimin aka my baias.
I love his reaction to all of them but especially Jimin!! That was just gold!!💜💜💜💜💜💜
As a mental health professional, you should definitely react to the lyric videos of their songs: Zero O'Clock, Lie (by member Jimin), Blue and Grey, Do You (by member RM), Paradise, and Magic Shop (named after the psychodramatic technique that exchanges fear for a positive attitude)
SHAWN!!! This was such a pleasant surprise for me this morning! 😭 Finally BTS! Can't wait for you to get into more of their deeper stuff (although Blood, Sweat, and Tears could be analyzed for hours)! Their lyrics are some of the best 💜 I already sent you a few recs in your Twitter DMs a while back, let me know if I should send them again!
I LOVED that last song so much! I really appreciate that suggestions, they help a lot! 💙
@@Psynergic I'm so glad!! Yeah, you're probably going to get A LOT of suggestions from people haha BTS's discography is MASSIVE so it can be a bit overwhelming at first for people just getting into them. So just take your time and enjoy the ride! :)
U should react to BTS jimin filter and on song it will be very interesting
@@Psynergic u listen to BTS jim-in filter if u love that song or just like the song u can never let jim-out
It's a good thing you left Blood Sweat and Tears for last. That's the Queen. Also, yes. We all need more Jimin in our lives.
Oh, SAME, BRUH, SAME!!!! You got caught by Jimin. We understand. Must watch your other reaction videos, because this one was priceless. No, really... we understand. It's okay. I still get flustered when I watch Blood Sweat and Tears.
I subscribed your channel for Stray Kids. I'm not BTS fan, so I can't comment that much, watched only "Blood SweatTears" part, and it is hands down one of the milestones and most spectacular moments in Kpop, it's really amazing, nobody can deny it. not fan of their dna, dynamite kind of content, but I personally love "Black Swan" !! Check it out, you'll appreciate it. PS your reaction is just another proof, NOBODY is safe from "Jimin Effect" 😅 He's so captivating :) You have expensive taste, skz Hyunjin now Jimin lol. Wish you beautiful bts discovery journey.
hahaha Expensive taste indeed! I am quite bougie sometimes 😅 Thanks for joining me on this journey too! (I finally got my copy of Oddinary in, so expect something soon!)
@@Psynergic well, me too, honestly why should I lower my standards when someone like Hwang Hyunjin exists, right?! 😅 perfection in a human body. (in every aspect) omg, Oddinary is literally "no skip" album, boys exceeded our expectations again. I can't wait for your reactions, watched "Maniac" reaction already.
BTS sucks. Exo better
Please do more BTS! You'll love them. And that man is Jimin ;)
Definitely more to come soon! 💙
I'm a first year post grad clinical psychology student and I'm really into mystery like detective or thriller. The thing that got me into BTS is the psychological mysteries especially in the HYYH/Best moments in life series and love yourself series, but if your preference is heavy on the psychogy side, bet you have a lot to say about their solos. Start with "The Last" it's very straight forward, much easier for someone new to get a grasp of the depth of their artistry. Then maybe the intro:persona, interlude:shadow, and outro:ego trio which is based by Jung's Map of the Soul concept and after you'll be able to see their work in a very different light. I'd suggest those first before jumping into the rest cause some also need much more in depth explanation, often related to Korean cultures and history. Edit: I feel the need to point out that I suggest "The Last" because it's like a confession which is why I think would be interesting for a clinical psychologist. While "Persona" "Shadow" and "Ego" is more of Psychology as a (musical) art which would be able to act as a bridge to their other songs like "Whalien 52", "Sea" etc
Thank you for all of the recommendations and explanations! I sincerely appreciate it! 💙 It’s always nice to have another Pscyh nerd around too 😁
i absolutely loved how you said during the dynamite mv that this was adorable and then you saw the blood, sweat, and tears mv💀
DNA is the song that started my kpop journey. I am very deep now xD
It was really good! I can't wait to see more!
The whole album Wings (that Blood Sweat and Tears is on) is an EXPERIENCE. Now I add like 10 kpop groups to my favorites every year.
Oh Shawn, you better show us your journey getting to know them! Blood Sweat & Tears music video and lyrics are heavily connected to their fictional universe called Bangtan Universe, so if you don't know about it the music video itself is quite confusing. Basically is based on the book Demian by Hermann Hesse which is about a guy in his youth facing temptation and sin, so the music video is full of references to that whole idea. Since you have a M.A. in Clinical Psychology I think it's worth to mention that their fictional universe is about all of them going through traumatic experiences and it treats stuff like depression, suicide tendencies, and a lot of other things that aren't often talked in a country like South Korea. All of it with the final purpose that you must love yourself before loving others, which has been BTS' motto for years. This universe is told through different sources, not only their music videos, so let me know if you want more info about it. I'm a sucker for the Bangtan Universe lol PS: Blue suit guy is Jimin. He is known as the BTS member who can make straight guys to consider their sexuality due to his androgynous looks/attitudes. That's why once you Jimin, you can't Jimout 🤣
That's crazy, I watched your "my beautiful man" reactions, and i can't believe you're doing BTS! I loved them for 8 years straight, since 15 years old and i'm 22 now, they're both my youth and my adulthood. They have very, very touching lyrics, often touch on subjects like mental health, and they're very sincere. They participate in writing and producing all their music, and are not afraid to be vulnerable. They've done all kinds of genres, there's always a place for any kind of listener. I'm looking forward to your reactions on them!
Are you still an army?
Hahaha .. first reaction to Jimin in DNA .. so precious! 💚🤣
BTS has one of the best vocal lines (huge range), best rapline from kpop. BTS writes and produces their own songs except Dynamite and PTD. BTS is named as National Treasure of South Korea by President Moon. BTS is most awarded group (not only in kpop but in the world). 2 times Grammy nominated.
If original poster says it's best, then it's best to them. You have your own best and thats fine. Let people live in their opinions. Having a favorite music group causes no harm to others.
@@lalisalamilalisalami yo! A kpopie saying about range lol. Bts has bigger range than exo and nct, first listen to bts vocal lines and then comment. They have been taking vocal lessons for years now, so fuck off kid
@@jessicapierce3027 ikr, kpopies die of identity crisis, their faves can't achieve BTS success , so they are jealous over all things. I listen to exo too but nah they can't go low to 2nd octave like BTS nor 6th ocatve
@@lalisalamilalisalami Its their opinion it doesn't matter what you say,I also believe so.
@@lalisalamilalisalami the vast majority of people who listen to music listen with their ears and hearts. It doesn't take a lot of music theory or analysis to appreciate a song. There are many people out there who can't distinguish against different notes, but in general the majority of music listeners aren't music experts, if a song moves them then it has made an impact on what they perceive as good quality music. So again, if original poster said BTS is the best, then they are the best to them. You have your favorites for your own reasons, so please just appreciate that many individual people in this world are able to find music that fits their liking and personal tastes.
I'm 49 yrs old BTS literally saved my life many times. They say BTS finds you when you need them most. I found them in 2018 & in 2019 my mom, sister, & her husband died in a 4 month period & my dad had a heart attack and had to go into a home. They got me through that with their lyrics, music, stages etc. I was in a dark place & became cold & bitter & almost destroyed my family because I didn't know how to grieve. They inspired me and helped me become a better person. Then this year, Jan 1st new years day, my husband of 29 years died 3 days before our 30th wedding anniversary. Without BTS (& my kids ofc) I think I'd be completely destroyed & broken instead of just cracked. Please watch This is BTS by xCeleste to get to know them & understand how incredible they are. They are genuinely good & caring people, and as companies go, big hit actually seems to care about their artists. Also they use psychological concepts from Carl Jung in some of their later songs. Please react to more! I subbed. 💜
i just want to give you a virtual hug from far away. 💜
@@dreamgloww6650 thank you, I appreciate it truly. People often don't realize how much just simple kind words like giving me a virtual hug & showing compassion helps 🙂 as I lie here at 3 am not able to sleep due to intrusive thoughts, your words made me smile, and that's huge these days 💜 I'll try to sleep now lol, Borahae 💜 gn 😀

You literally popped up on my KZhead today, I have mental health issues, anxiety mostly so thanks so much for doing this vid !!!! You've made me smile and laugh so much today, BTS have helped me through a lot in my life as many others would agree !!! I'm do glad you've found them too !! They are true, honest gentlemen who do so much for their fans ( or " Army " as were known ) you'll fall down the rabbit hole as we've all done 😁 once you Jimin you can't Jimout !!!! Love to you and thank you 💜💜💜
He said the magic words: I GOTTA LEARN THEIR NAMES You have now officially fallen inside the rabbit hole 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
The songs that consistently make me cry... are 'house of cards' and 'truth untold' by the vocal line. Honestly beautiful songs with such a beautiful message
BTS can't sing. They lipsync and use autotune. Exo kings
Truth Untold! Gets me every time, especially Jin’s first line, there’s just something about the way he puts so much emotion into it that I can’t help tearing up 😢
yup, “blood sweat and tears” usually gets them all. thank you for watching these videos, nice selection to get into them. i hope you’ll check out “black swan” (plus the art film) and the two mvs for “on” very soon. and then, a chronological order through the bangtan universe music videos and art/short films would be so cool. there are blogs that can tell you in which order you should watch the videos. i think you’ll have looots to talk about when you watch the bu videos.
Watching your reactions was priceless...it was everything I was feeling inside when I discovered BTS! And yes, Jimin (in the blue jacket) has that effect on a person...
There's so much to digest on BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS if you dive in, 2016 this is the time when BTS really blows up Globally and They are UNSTOPPABLE. BS&T is a MASTERPIECE indeed BTS is so diverse especially their songs . Hope you'll react more Yooo another one caught by the 'Jimin Effect'
Hi there, the guy with the blue jacket in Blood, Sweat & Tears is called Jimin 😁 ( literally almost everyone falls for him 😂💪🏻🙃) I would love it if you uploaded more BTS reaction videos, I loved this one. Thanks. 🥰🥰💜
Uff Blood sweat and tears is really deep, its derived from herman hesses demian, and the song and the album “wings” explores the losing of innocence, the boy to the adult world. The music video is heavy in symbolism from the book, art pieces , and freud, if you would like you can check an analysis vdo of the music video called “Blood sweat and tears what does it all mean” i think u would be pleasantly surprised! Most of BTS music touches on mental health aspect a lot, i wouldnt reccomend more as i see my fellow armys have suggested a lot in the cmmnts. Have fun exploring BTS💜 They have more than 250 songs expanding every single genre through their almost 10yrs in the industry
I love seeing appreciation for my bias, Jimin. Welcome to the BTS world, baby ARMY!
All of us need more Jimin in our lives! He is the KOREA frontman, K-POP frontman, BTS frontman for obvious reasons, no one can resist him. He is extremely talented in all areas, truly an impressive artist.
