ARMY, the time has finally come…

*NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE ANY BU SPOILERS IN YOUR COMMENTS BELOW OR IN YOUR MESSAGES TO US!!*

The Bangtan Universe (BU) has remained a distant concept in our imaginations for the past year. We've exercised great self-control, delving only into a select few BU-related MVs (such as "First Love"), and holding off on our exploration of "I NEED U" until…RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!

ARMY…sit back, grab your snacks and enjoy watching the two of us do some hardcore detective work 🕵🏽🕵🏽

By the looks of it, this is going to be a dramatic, action packed, thrilling ride…and we’re committed to getting to the bottom of all of it! There’s no such thing as over-analysis when it comes to the BU, right?? 😂

LET’S GOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

As always, we truly appreciate your love and support (WE’LL CONTINUE SAYING THIS UNTIL THE END OF TIME). Your subscription allows us to produce higher-quality reaction videos, and moves us closer to our goal of doing this full-time! Let us know if you have any questions, feedback, thoughts, etc. at any time!

BORAHAE!! 💜💜

didmt delve into the BU for this reason only, cannot wait to start this journey with you two

Melissa R.A

YAAAAYYY, I personally have not started on the BU yet bc idk where to start and yes there's links and guides but they're all different still. So I shall follow the BU with you guys! This is gonna be funnnn😍

fox

I am excited that your getting into this! I hope you explore the BU in a timely matter, simply because it requires a good memory 😅 good luck guys haha

J. Ezbet

OMG, I'm so excited to watch this!!!

mettemirella

oh I have waited so long for this. I was literately jumping up and down when I saw the update.

Steph

WOOHOOO!!! Let’s goooooooooo!!!!

viperine

...*in JK's voice: "let's get this bread" 💜

Didi

I’m so excited for this!!!!

Pacific Pacific

I am delving into the BU with you too. Didn't want to do it alone so this is the perfect way 💜💜

Jenna B.

an interesting tidbit for i need u that makes me think the lyrics DO relate to the mv (at least a bit): namjoon once explained in a live that the lyrics were originally meant to say 'i need you friend' but the flow sounded off so they changed it to 'i need you girl'

btSunina

the BU is literally my roman empire, it's been years and not a day goes by where I don't think about it. so excited to kinda "re-experience" it with you guys!!!

chantal bavaud

You should watch some videos on it explaining the whole video

NotFunny ButFunny

glad yall found a way. but yeeah there muuurrdeer involved

NotFunny ButFunny

in korea you can smoke in mvs so they use lolipops. thats why it was such a big deal for suga to smoke in haegeum

화은 김(Jullisa)

I really enjoyed your fresh interpretation💜 Thanks for the video so much!

Glaseon_711

I've been waiting for this video for a very long time! I will say that you are great! You noticed a lot of metaphors that will help you in the future) I don’t think this will be a spoiler, but the moments where they are happy and together – memories. I want to give important advice: pay attention to objects that often appear in frames (they can help reveal the characters and their stories ). Well, now we're waiting for the prologue? Can't wait to see our detectives in action! And if you want to discuss any of the theories, go to discord! There's a whole chat for that! Jared and Jordan, we (ARMY) are always ready to help you without spoilers) 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Saphy

So glad to be on this BU journey with you guys. By the looks of it, you're certainly doing a much better job than I did when I was trying to decipher things. You have a pen, paper, and someone else to bounce ideas off of. My only tip is to pay attention to each characters possible motives for their actions, try to create a back story for each of them, it will help. I enjoyed every second of this and I'm looking forward to your next instalment. As someone else has already said, I suggest you don't leave it too long, you'll only end up getting confused if you do 😂. Well done guys 👏🏽

Kecia ⁷

I haven't heard the word "ecstacy" that much since 1986! lol!

claudia lecusascu ⁷

oooooooooo it started, im so excited AAAAAAAA seeing you boys analize every frame makes me go back to the time where I tried to get into the BU myself lol I am ready with my brain and thinking cap on so BRING IT ON

Wisc Granny⁷

In the "behind the scenes" videos for this and many others of theirs, you will hear several members say how uncomfortable they were "acting" the roles they were given, commenting how much they are not good at acting. Other than V and Jin who have some acting experience, ALL of their performances here are top tier in my opinion. They all really cut themselves short regarding their skills and ability to make the viewer feel a whole slew of emotions. They always give the producer, director, and editors the credit. Their humility knows no bounds. I've seen this video a hundred times, at least, and still get the same level of raw emotion each time. As with your experience the first time, I will never get the same shock and awe I did on MY first time, but the more you understand the story line, the more deeply you feel the emotions they portray. I really enjoyed your deep dive here and look forward to your reactions to the rest of the storyline.

A.N.D

i definitely turned into sherlock homes when i first learned of the BU. y’all got this! i just want y’all to know that the feelings and thoughts or theories you guys have are great and definitely will go deeper than the surface

a.k.a Mo

I always love watching people start the BU. It's interesting what gets picked up or what connections are made and what may not have been noticed quite yet. Idk if this will be helpful, but as this is a story being created, make sure you're noting the who? what? where? when? why? and how? in each scene. That will help you build an understanding of this world and make some connections as you go. Thank you for sharing your journey and have fun! 💜

Alyssa

I want to add that Pay attention to who they are paired/ interact with the most in the videos as well. That is a big thing as well.

Sonny Min

You should definitely should also check out the Japanese versions of all songs that will come now after the I Need You MV bc you will get more scenes that are tied into the whole Bangtan Universe!

Glaseon_711

Agree. Forgot to add this)

J. Ezbet

That's right, RM did say that. Korean people watching the videos are listening to and understanding the words at the same time as watching the imagery. The songs don't tell the story but the songs aren't random, either.

Catia🇵🇹⁷

YESSSSSS. HERE WE GO.....its ok to be confuse🤣🤣🤣you will understand on the way....good memory is require😉😉😉

NotFunny ButFunny

hyyh pt 1 and 2 . one is sadness in happiness and the other in happiness within sadness and that is reflected in the respective title tracks like I Need U so the lyrics are the general theme

NotFunny ButFunny

ooh now that you mention jk saying fall, specific events are starting to make sense in hindsight

Kallie

I can’t wait for y’all to watch the BU explained video

J-Lee

Nah you guys, there is no such thing as overanalyzing in ARMY 😉 You're actually doing it the same way as I did haha 😅 Just a note, it was Jin's tear in the very beginning of the vid, not JK. I actually don't want to comment more bcos I might just blurt out stuff that may be considered a spoiler and I won't even know that it was one 😭 Anyways, I hope you also watch the making of the MV to familiarize yourselves with their individual scenes and stories too 😊 Then I believe you'll need to watch the Prologue and RUN next after this. Gah! Now your BU journey officially begins, let's goooo mah FAVE brothers!!! 💜

Maka Mars

Omfg!! This was great. Just when I thought I knew everything y’all implanted more agony and insanity in my mind. I’m about to buy one of those big detective white board and have it in my house lmaooo

Maka Mars

Jared was like “wHaT Murdaaaa 🤷🏽‍♂️???! “ lmaoo

Daya Santamaria

Thanks for making my days better, i'm suffering to transtorn anxiety depressive, so bts always make feel sage and seguro and your videos guys help so much in the darkness💜

Cling

Welcome to the BU. You guys open the pandora's box.

NotFunny ButFunny

well this was definitely worth the 20 bucks guys

ARMY

BU...? omg... I can't wait to see your reaction. let's go🔥

Dani Ellison

Finally we get the BU. I so can not wait for this journey to continue. Analyze, pick apart, dig deep or whatever you feel you need to do. But most of all enjoy the journey. Oh yea one more thing. Please for the love of BTS react to PIED PIPER PIED PIPER PIED PIPER.

JenR

You guys did so well! 1 official video down, 23 more to go! Plus all the other official content like notes and the webtoon etc etc. I can't believe how strong the urge is to provide more context but I will resist! Don't worry, each video builds on itself and the story as a whole - this first one is supposed to make you feel lots of things, including confusion. But you guys caught onto a lot and touched on many useful keywords/themes too. I can't wait to see you continue on!

Fernanda

Wow! You guys did so well!! I lost it when Jared paused within the first 5 seconds lmao that's the spirit! No, but seriously it was so fun to watch your reactions and shared enthusiasm! Also, loved the analysis and can't wait for the rest! Hope you guys take care.

Maëva

Ommgg I was answering to your answers but honestly the way you go about it you're doing really really great!!! Don't forget your keywords, the contrats you noticed, their experiences and locations👏🏾👏🏾 Welcome to the BU and have fun😊💜

Jordyn

Omg this is gonna be such a fun journey. It's impossible (or really hard) to over analyze the BU. They PACKED it with details, and who knows, maybe you'll find details we all missed. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you need to refer to them using their government names lol. As long as you know what their names are because they may be referred to by them. I'd say you caught way more than I did on my first watch. Like you've been doing, keep an eye on the pairings and what each person is going through. Can't wait for moreeee 🫡

Tricia

Glad to see Vicki explaining that the boys were uncomfortable with some of the parts they had to perform. I understand the heart wrenching roller coaster but I’m not one to enjoy the extreme violence to express emotions. Am I imagining it, or are some scenes used in different music videos, not related to this song? (Hey Jared & Jordon, I’m lost on this new Patreon app. I can’t find messages. Would you please connect with me via email so I can find my way!) 🦋💜💜

taetaebear01 (Lindsey E.)

Wildly entertaining to try to watch you guys parse this 😂 you did way better than I did haha

Lynn ⁷

So adorable when your heads turn sideways at the same time during certain parts 😂😂 loved every second of it 😍 looking forward to more! 💜🙏🏻💜

Deemah

Daphne Schaffer

The esmerald flower shows up in a lot of songs even on the newer albums. They have a way of carry on a story or idea from one album to another. Kinda like building layers. Army know.

Daphne Schaffer

The train car with number of course shows up in a few but especially in Yet To Come 10th anniversary song with Namjoon rapping. Remember?

Harley

When I got into the BU I remember I watched all the MVs associated with HYYH series just to see what I could figure out was going on and then I delved into reading theories or watching explanation videos. Because there’s so many things to read like the notes and BU game I basically just decided after I go through exploring the HYYH era of BTS music wise then I went and watched all the explanation videos.

Kecia ⁷

Well done J&J! It was so much fun to watch is with you and hear your theories. I'm really looking forward to the next steps.

Lauren L .

Omg I can’t can’t wait. Just remember EVERY detail matters. EVERY ONE

Amani ○°●•7

Great Start !!! I'm gonna love rewatching and doing analysis with you two 🔥🔥🔥🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🎶🌌💜 KIND REMINDER TO ARMY COMMENTING: NO SPOILERS PLZ.

Hai Nguyen

I have been a BTS ARMY since 2013.. I’m barely even touching the surface with the BU. I’m so glad to explore it with you guys as well! 💜

viperine

They have ongoing intertextuality within their content even now but most of it is just paying homage.. Official BU MVs are labeled as such by BigHit (or at least they used to be before HYBE was a thing). There are things like their WINGS tour trailer video that's part of the BU as well, i hope someone has given you the list of everything & in order of release🤔 Also, please try to find the content with English subs.. Like "On Stage: Prologue" & "Highlight Reels".. There is a few spoken moments that are important and a few on screen Hangul words that are important, that are translated in the version with English subs. The "on stage: Prologue" out there in YouTube land is missing the ending scene last i knew, though. It was originally released as paid content for fans on V app & then taken down and re-released to the general public later but was slightly different and missing that scene...i don't know who's helping you with this BU content list but LAWD good luck guys, i might be making the confusion worse but it'd be a shame to miss those details💜 also, good call on reading the wall behind Yoongi 👏🏻 EDIT: I FOUND THE ENGLISH SUBBED "ON STAGE: PROLOGUE" THAT HAS THE ORIGINAL ENDING SCENE... If you don't have it already, that is. https://youtu.be/7xVah8oLJmk?si=mWZK5nC3dQ8PJdQP

Mirela⁷

This was a delightful introduction to the BU. I got so excited when I saw the notification that I had to get snacks and everything to prepare for it. No matter how much time passes and how many times I see this content, the BU is above everything. I notice something new with every single time I re-watch these videos. I know for sure that it's gonna be an amazing experience for you guys. And besides the storyline, plots and imagery, the BU gives butterflies. The songs are indeed masterpieces, but the way it makes you feel, it's hard to put it in writing. It's such a comfort and safety zone. It's amazing how the boys (alongside the BH staff) created a literal universe that resonates with so many people. Sometimes I'm envying the Armys who grew up with the BU, waiting for the next video, feeling the excitement, the hope, the happiness that comes with it. You want to know the story and solve the mystery, but in the same tine you don't want it to come to an end. Hopefully, we'll a 10th year anniversary project for the BU ( it was kinda confirmed by Bang PD recently and even Namjoon said so during Suchwita). I am so excited to go through this journey with you. I'm excited for myself as I am for you too. BU changed lives in better, without any exageration, including my own. Much love. You're nice, keep going! 💜

TheLastMoon⁷

Oh, this is gonna be a fun journey!!! 💜

Hana⁷

The BU is an absolutely insane adventure to deep dive into! I like how you took it step by step and went throught the MV in detail. What you noticed with Namjoon, the Lollipop and the cigarette... classically you can't show smoking in kpop MVs (unless you're agust d and it's 2023), so when namjoon has a lollipop in the BU MVs, he's actually smoking, they just couldn't show it back then. So the cigarette you saw falling onto the money was actually his. Also, I don't know if someone has already mentioned it to you, but I think it's impossible to fully understand the BU without going through the Save Me Webtoon and the Notes. (And potentially the Bangtan Universe game, but that one actually confused me even more.) So when you're through all related MVs it might make sense to watch an explanation video. 😄

LizP⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷

Well, ya got thru the introduction of the BU and lived to tell about it 😆 You guys did a great job with analyzing everything. Nothing is gonna make complete sense at this moment. But when you start getting into the rest of the videos, you'll see the pieces of the puzzle coming together. Ultimately, the stories are interesting and full of all kinds of emotions. Enjoy the ride guys. 🙂💜🫶💜🫶🙂

Aylaᴿᵖʷᵖ

Same, I have seen all the mvs & supporting material but haven’t done the deep dive for ten months waiting to do it with y’all!

Faith

The discipline I have had not to watch or find out anything about the BU has been a good test of my patience but I am glad I get to join Jared and Jordan on this journey. Thank you Jared and Jordan for a wonderful reaction as always. 💜💜💜

viperine

I just want to mention that to this day a good chunk of the BU does not have answers. The major thread connecting it all does (unless they throw a curve ball later), but they like leaving us hanging & wondering. Not sure if anyone mentioned but Bang PD was interviewed this week and he mentioned that BTS comeback is the HYYH 10 year anniversary and he/BTS are planning on doing something with that. No idea if he was inferring the BU characters as part of that roll out but in their recent book, BTS members (particularly Jimin) mentioned how that escapism together made them closer, and closer to fans, and it was a magical time. So you're right on target my friends! You'll have it fresh in your head when they come back💜🙏🏻

Selina T

This is not related, (but I’m very excited to start the BU 😆) but V had a fan meeting yesterday in Korea with some lucky thousand fans attended, which he coined it “Vicnic” lol. He basically hung out with army, danced, played games, performed a couple songs. Jimin showed up! And he looked like he had no idea what was going on, but V in V fashion was being spontaneous lol and performed friends together. Possibly even hinting at a Vmin collab in the near future?? Anyway you musta came across several clips on Instagram/Twitter etc. there were some really wholesome moments, and honestly what makes being ArMY so fun. These guys don’t act like your typical celebrities. They really cherish their fans. Check it out in your free time if you haven’t!

Abbie

Omg I’m so excited! I’ve been Army for over 4 years and I have hardly scratched the BU surface so I am learning and exploring with y’all and I cannot wait. Let’s gooo!! 💜💜💜

viperine

Yes, except it leaves out the WINGS tour trailer released before the WINGS short films & is all BU imagery .. As well as the BU game & SAVE ME Webtoon which was released before some of the notes.. Neither of those last 2 are imperative but definitely add context not seen prior in the storyline

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

If you look at the bottom of your screen beside the home 🏠 icon, there’s a chat bubble 💬, click that and you’ll see the mail envelope ✉️ icon in the upper right hand corner. Click that and you can write your direct message. Hope that helps. 💜

Luna

i remember when the smeraldo flower was officially introduced into the BU in 2018 and going in to rewatch i need u...seeing the smeraldo flowers appear in 2015 music videos, 3 years before we knew of the smeraldo flower freaked me out SO bad lmao. bts/bh had been planting the seeds for YEARS and it is so genius (and terrifying)

shelby🖤

y’all did an amazing job analyzing this on your first go. i’m genuinely impressed. warning you now that after watching more videos you will be back here to connect things. i saw one bit you missed that’s important later with the connection of member pairings but you may get there after watching other stuff. if you don’t it’s okay bc theories video will point it out. also i find it funny that it’s kinda weird for yall to use their real names but most of us literally never us their stage names. even the members have stopped doing it a lot when they’re talking to us on live about another member. yall are like the only 2 army i know that have stuck to using their stage names. no problems with that of course but it’s funny. you can use stage names if you want for the bu too. i promise we’ll know what you mean.

Tricia

The envelope is what’s missing!!! I couldn’t get Patreon to open. I deleted it and redownloaded it. I haven’t been able to find the message envelope. I have an iPhone. Also, when I first open it, all of the reactions are connected pictures. I didn’t have casting to my TV for 6 months and got way behind. I’m still playing catch up. Seeing the heart is what let me know I’d already watched it. Do your reaction episodes show up in a connected line of pictures? I really appreciate your help.

hannah

i’ve been an army for just about 3 years now and i’ve never had a full opportunity to be able to deep dive into this universe so i’m so excited my first proper time will be alongside you guys! i have a general idea of the storyline but i think there’s a lot i don’t know or potentially need more clarity on. i actually have no idea where this fits into the story or if it even does but one video i watched on repeat as a baby army was the highlight reel ( https://youtu.be/EHdK5U2hf4o?si=A6zwL0Mgrue7-OL7 ) - not sure if anyone is able to advise where this fits in but i adore this video and the music gives me chills every single time🤍

PamTan

Great analysis J&J, you never disappoint. A few comments about the BU, I disagree with the idea that the lyrics had nothing to do with the storyline, I feel they are very related, in this case, the members said they added the “girl” term to “I need you” just because it sounded better but imo the song can be applied to anything that somebody might need. So I would suggest to include the lyrics in the music video just to have another perspective. Just make sure to understand that nobody knows the real meaning of anything about the BU so you can be theorize freely.

Ashleyder

I haven't finished watching this yet, so it's possible this will get addressed, but I hope somebody provided you with a choronological list of BU content. A lot of people mistakenly watch the Run MV next after I Need U, but you should really watch the On Stage Prologue next, *before* watching Run! And you've got to find one with English captions and the "original ending"!

Ashleyder

Man, after you guys go through the whole BU, you will have to come back and rewatch this music video. It is such a different experience once you know everything.

Ashleyder

Will you be diving into The Notes as well? A huge portion of the BU is told through The Notes.

Ashleyder

You counted the number of pills in Hobi's hand, but not the number of petals in Jin's hands, lol. (You should definitely count the petals.) As someone who majored in writing in college (a long, long time ago, lol), I have a particular attachment to the BU. Someday when you're done with it all, I'll rant about all the things I love about it. A lot of the things I love come from The Notes, though, so I hope you read them at some point!

LaNita Starr⁷

I ... am.. so... excited! I had no idea what the BU was. And I waiting to experience it with you guys. I have to admit that I realized something was interesting about a few MV and even a comeback preview I think. It made me very confused but I didn't deep dive as I was literally watching BTS MV in order. I am stoked as I was right... not only was it different, it's an entire universe!! 😱🤯 Bruh, I got a notebook and took a whole page if notes with you guys. LOL 😆 This is going to be fun!! Great reaction guys. The only think I noticed about this video you didn't mention was that Jin was the only one that was not experience a "physical" turmoil. And he experiences light alone, outside of the happiness when the 7 of them are together. I look forward to what's yet to come!! 💜💜💜💜 Borahae 💜💜💜

Jane Rogers

The person(s) who came up with the concept and storyline for BU and how it got incorporated into their songs/notes, etc is/are pure genius(es)!

Jenny

So excited for you guys to go through this journey. I'm not sure if anybody has told you but there are some videos that it might be nice to watch a version with subtitles. I know they're quite important in the next video "on stage: Prologue"

Natalie

Excited for you two to go through this BU journey!!

viperine

I provided the link to the "On Stage: Prologue" with Eng subs & original ending scene, but i hope they read all the comments to get it!

Cassandra

And make sure you watch all the way to the end, past the credits!!

Pia⁷

Guys SAVE YOUR NOTES!!!!!!!!!

ANW!

B U specifically I need U MV is very compellingly deep and pulled my heartstrings hard back to my former reality before I became an ARMY and realizing the very reason why I love BTS - RM, Suga, JK, Jhope, V, Jin and Jimin. BTS music has helped me transcends hurt, pain, depression, suicide and death. I am now the best version of myself because of BTS music and because BTS are RM, Suga, Jin, Jhope, V, Jimin and Jungkook, added to the fact that of me having a very lovng family and God. May the force be with you on your B U journey.

J. Ezbet

Yeah, I actually don't think anything is just random! lol

J. Ezbet

I agree @Pamtan - I also disagree with the idea that the lyrics have nothing to do with the storyline. It's a song about need and desperation. I need you, not I want you, and totally part of the progression of the story.

Cianni

*THIS IS NOT A SPOILER* Hey so I never comment but the "BU" content is important to me. I have spent the better part of the last 5 years - ish trying to decode it. And let me tell you it doesn't stop with just the regular music videos. There is the music videos + the Japanese versions of the music videos in order + the concept trailers for the comebacks + the notes that are released ( They are physical and have been translated) + some concert VCRs. Of course there are also YouTube videos that have linked the most important pieces together in movie like format. If you search up "BTS full story HYYH" you can watch it from beginning to end (at least most of the universe). BTS and Bight have never helped us out with decoding the story so for the most part it is fan speculation on how the events occur in order. There used to be a game called BTS universe that kind of helped but that got shut down in September. Then there are the trailers for the game that helped people piece together some of the information. Bight also has a drama in the works that is supposed to cover the entire universe called "Youth". I can't wait to see where y'all get with this universe. If you ever get lost xCeleste has videos up on her channel that help people navigate the "BU".

Tricia

Good morning ☀️ The envelope finally showed up! I don’t know why it took several tries over several hours. Thank you so very much. Without your help I would have continued to be very frustrated. 🙏🏼 J&J said they were glad it finally worked and that you are WONDERFUL!! 🦋💜

just jamie⁷

I want to give spoilers! I want to give spoilers! I want to give spoilers! I want to give spoilers! I want to give spoilers! I want to give spoilers! I want to give spoilersaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! But i wont. I was so excited i was answering all your questions out loud while watching my sister side eyed me so hard!!!! I was nodding so much on the keywords you got right toooooo….. i look like im crazyyyyyy! Haha… cant wait for vid #2. Good job j&j. Woohoooo! Ok im gonna stop. Drank so much coffee 😂😂😂😂😂

just jamie⁷

Now i wanna watch ‘the sinner’

moonbeamss_⁷

Yes there is SO much that they need to see to fully understand the BU . It makes me a bit upset when people watch the couple main videos and then a fan theory and they go 🤷🏻‍♀️ well there you go. I’m always like WHAT ?! lol you only hit like 10% of it . I truly think that you can NEVER fully understand the BU if you don’t read the notes and Webtoon.

moonbeamss_⁷

Wow BU! Get ready for a WILD adventure. I know things were released a certain way and any army is of course allowed to experience things in their own way, but there truly is a proper order to everything to better understand things. And the BU is already confusing so I think watching/reading EVERYTHING that has even the tiniest resemblance of BU (not everything that seems to do with the BU is actually labeled BU by big hit…) is necessary to understand it a bit better with out getting more confused. There are archives and post out there that list out everything that is bu related and the orders they go in! Because the BU is NOT just a few music videos. Do we need to play some guess the BTS member games on Yt for practice ?? Lmao 🤣 it seems you guys are still struggling to identify certain members.. and in the BU it is VITAL that you know who is doing what and with who! Keep working on the “pairs” the members are in btw 😉 I’m looking forward to this crazy experience with you guys! The BU was what really pulled me into being full on army and thinking BTS was on another level of ARTIST!

moonbeamss_⁷

We still have the drama coming out! maybe there will be a definite ending with that, but knowing big hit I’m sure they will still manage to leave it pretty open ended lol

leat

regarding the solo songs hints of BU content. i think it´s possible that you are right. because there was a BU clue in Sugas concert video, you might want to check that out later. but i didn´t se it in any of his MV. i dont think the BU is over yet. idk if any army has found other links in any of the other memebers content. it might not be in the mv could be anywhere actually. BU also has content in books and video games that army has collected and studies over the years. i only know a rough idea of what the story is about. i can´t wait to hear what you come up with. Btw there is a korean drama about the whole BU story coming soon. we don´t know the exact release. all i know it´s korean actors playing the role of each of the members. and it should have one of the highest budget for a serie in korea. but idk if that is true or not. but if it is, it´s huge. i have seen the highest budget and we are talking GOT type of series. so i can´t wait. i think all of this will come in 2024 when all memebers have enlisted

leat

lol i can´t wait for you to listen to xceleste explanation on BU. it´s way more complicated, because we don´t have all the information. but you are just hilarious. analyzing every scene

After watching the list of BU contents you can play the BU game and read the webtoon but if you are not interested in them that’s okay (not all Army read it or play the game they watch the explanation video) I recommend watching this explanation by xCeleste She did a great job because she read the webtoon, played the game, and read the Demian book which is related to the BTS wings era😽🤌 https://youtube.com/watch?v=4Xs-WyzB_zg&feature=sharea (There is an updated ver. from the same account but it’s like part 2 without the introduction that you must see first) After watching the BU explanation video I highly recommend watching BTS Wings Era explained by xCeleste https://youtu.be/VsJxiPzi4K8?si=r2_Xe7-P4tdN5XNk

Ya’ll did a great job analyzing “I Need You.” I have been a BTS fan for three years now. I have heard of the Bangtan Universe but never solve into it. I watch the videos with no intention of finding links to v ideos or anything so I am happy to dive into this universe with you. Thanks so much for the reaction. 💜

Watching any videos with you guys is a pleasure, but restarting this BU journey together with you is an absolute joy. Thank you for such quality content and genuine interest and fascination to this Bangtan world.
