ARMY, we’re back with the next chapter of RISE OF BANGTAN!!

This chapter was remarkable. Here are some of our takeaways:

Did we just get a BU spoiler when V stated that the man he was beating up was his “father”!?!? Or shall we just consider this additional evidence for us to analyze?

The first HIGH is always the best high! Seeing BTS win their first award for “I NEED U” tugged on our heart-strings.

Hearing that snippet of “Outro: Love is Not Over”…🤯

Hearing that snippet of “Mom” by Jin...🥹

The looks we give when people accuse BTS of “sajaegi”...😒🙄

BTS has dedicated their entire life to MUSIC, mirroring the Pope's steadfast service to faith.

We hope you sit back, relax and enjoy our reaction. We’ve decided to include the Chapter 8 DELETED SCENES and BONUS CONTENT as well!! ENJOY!

Lastly, ARMY GOLD...our PART TWO reaction to RM’s’ Mixtape (‘RM’) is coming! We haven't forgotten 🤗

NOTE: This reaction is being released as an “EARLY RELEASE” here on Patreon. We will eventually upload it to YouTube as well.

ARMY, 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!! 💜💜

Can’t wait to watch it!

Oh how I’ve missed the rise of bangtan reactions! Also just read the caption and I don’t think it’s a huge spoiler just take it as extra info :))

Alix Drifty

You're encountering the "spoilers"/information at roughly the same pace as army did - so I'd treat it as information, rather than a spoiler and something you shouldn't know.

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

Okay stop with the Sam Cooke teasers already 🤯🤌🏻

Madison

Big 3 Privilege, in my opinion, is not as extensive as it used to be. The most newer idol groups get now is promotion before they actually debut, essentially already establishing them a fan base. But staying on the charts & winning awards due to privilege isn’t something I’d say happens often anymore.

MistikButterfly

I will say the thing no one wants to hear, the BU is spread out throughout webtoons, "The Notes" (which are mini notebooks that come with certain albums), an App game, Songs, music videos & even Albums. Not to mention, IT IS STILL ONGOING. I think you guys should do a deep dive into the BU and just get current with all the details and the basics of the Story. This way you guys will enjoy the music videos & songs in a more comprehensive way. Specially for the Wings Album which is, in my opinion, Bangtan OPUS and packs Soooo Much. None of us know how this story ends. We have a million theories and they all make sense. So it would be more enjoyable for you guys (my humble opinion) if you actively participate in the puzzle. I am a 2020 ARMY, and at first I decided to go chronologically and discover the BU as I went. First thing I did was read the webtoon. However I quickly realized that the information was scattered throughout different media and not only was it going to take me ages, it required too much time to play the game and wait until I got all the albums. I can genuinely say, I enjoyed and analyzed things with much more efficiency once I had the foundation of the BU. ARMYs like XCeleate have compiled the story and it gives all the basics. I am rocking with you guys regardless. And just to reiterate, the BU is still ongoing. As always, love your reactions and look forward to your content always. 💜 👑 💜

Madison

Also I’d like to just shout out Hitman Bang for a little just because he could’ve had that Big 3 status or at least the money long before BTS was fully established. He was in cahoots with pretty much every CEO from the Big 3 but especially JYP (they’re still close).

G-hope⁷

I JUST KNEW YOU WERE GONNA FALL IN LOVE WITH LOVE IS NOT OVER AAAAAAAAA. ok. i was excited for hyyh pt2 but now i am EVEN MORE. bring it on!

Alix Drifty

Lol - if you're seeing it, then it's not a vacation - it's them doing a photoshoot + video content. They might still enjoy it and find it relaxing though - but it's also work. Usually they'll have a day or two off at the beginning or end of those trips for free time though, so they'll get one or two days vacation, depending on how tight their schedule is.

fox

i'm so happy that you are continuing this 🥰 i just started to watch but i hope you keep in mind this is the "rise" of bangtan, so you are seeing them before they were rich and famous, things were different back then 🥰 they were not a part of the big three, and now these days it is not the big three anymore it is the big four with hybe being probably the biggest Also like someone said, if we see it they are working. They can have some fun but they are still doing work like photoshoots and videos for content. When they are on vacation they are sleeping 😂 back then, at least.

N ♡

I wonder what you guys did for work before this... you’re both such great speakers so it makes me wonder

shelby🖤

to explain the big three privilege further. they have ties to literally everything. they have connections to news outlets, media outlets, tv channels, music companies, and even the government and certain political parties. if you debut under a big 3 company you’re basically guaranteed success. if you don’t it’s bc you’re either that bad musically or the company themselves messed up. its not as prominent now but it’s still very much there. i’ve seen the pull first hand over my 7 years being the the kpop community bc of bts. people try to say hybe is now a part of that and is the big 4 but hybe doesn’t have those connections bc they’re all still loyal to the big 3. (imo anyways. bc if they had the pull, bts’ success wouldn’t be downplayed as much as it is in korea) it’s genuinely insane and could be talked about for hours.

Laurie Brennan⁷

I am excited to see you back to TRoB reactions. They were not on vacation in Malaysia...they were shooting content, although they had time to enjoy fun things too. This is why they were in matching outfits on the zoo trip etc. ...working as always. I think it's impossible not to encounter BU "spoilers" because all the content overlaps each other and there is no exact way to explore it in perfect order. "It's complicated" would be an apt description. Fox mentioned above how much they were struggling financially in these early days. The fans would pool their money (somewhat like they do for mass donations now) and buy them food and some luxuries (such as a massage chair for their dorm) to show their appreciation to them. Jin comes from a wealthy family and would often treat the other members to meals etc or take them to his family home when they were homesick. JK for example was only 13 in global age when he left home for good and he was far from home. Jin's family was closer, so he would take him there for visits when he missed his own family. I'm so proud of them as people as well as artists. Thanks for reacting.

I think TROB is superbly done as it really takes you step by step through their journey. I would take whatever you find as information to add to your understanding of the BU, not as “spoilers “. It’s a journey, chapters of a mystery. Bighit didn’t have the financial ability to buy back albums like the major 3 companies could so accusing them of cheating in that way doesn’t even make sense when you think about it. They weren’t on vacation. The photoshoots for their albums are the photo books, photo cards that are included with the albums. They were being filmed while they were doing the photo shoots and while they had a little relaxation time but there’s a camera in their faces even then. They never seem to have any “down” time. You notice that they are very modest, wearing shirts even while swimming. In some content, there are edits to cover up a flash of abs etc. The RM quote “Jimin, you got no jams” was while they were on the plane, flying to the USA for what I believe was American Hustle Life. Hobi was trying to get everyone to speak English as practice on the plane and RM was teasing Jimin. Next time you tease me with some Sam Cooke, you better play that thang!! A Change is Gonna Come…… 🤯🫠🤌🏻 Another good one. Keep them coming. 🫰🏻💜🫰🏻💜🙏🇨🇦

Lelya Leto

BTS don't know what is a green screen))))))

Selina T

I wonder the same lol

Merilyn Oliveira

Hello J&J! I noticed that u guys really takes a lot of attention and shows aprecciation to BangPd's speech, I truly recommend you to watch this video where he talks about the beginning of bangtan and related things, would be nice to see the visions and your opinions on that too. (maybe in an army gold video?) Here's the link of his speech: https://www.bangtansubs.com/videos/2018/2/23/180223-kbs-good-insight-season-2-producer-bang-sihyuk-episode 9:06 to 9:46 - song: DNA

J. Ezbet

I think it's perfect that TROB is giving you the promotional material and context that ARMYs had at the time. V identified the man as his father. Bighit put it out there so ARMYs would have that information. Perfect! Not a spoiler. Go with it!

J-Lee

Ahh we finally got to this, thank you mah fave bros! It didn't feel like 7 months tho, coz we really had gone thru some really important contents as well. Anyways, first of all I'd like to thank Jaeyi for sharing their story with us. It's really inspiring and it made me admire them so much for having a strong mindset going thru all that and getting past them. We are all much stronger than we thought - and I've learned that from BTS too 💜 Next point - don't worry J&J. That was exactly how I was when I started with the BU stuff - that's a moment where you 'think' you're putting things together already (so-called evidences) but then realizing later on that you're either correct or incorrect - which is all fine because that's the fun of it! I am very amused to see you both theorizing together. Love it! Just an info for you, coz I think you don't know this yet - every year, BTS (and most idol groups), they release their so-called SUMMER package (on summer time) and WINTER package (during Christmas time). It's an extra content - DVD's, photobooks, etc. That's why they did the photoshoot in Malaysia - for their summer package. Maybe you can watch each year's Summer or Winter package for ARMY GOLD? 😊 It's good that they do this too because it can somehow serve as their "healing time" or vacation with each other. About the chapter - c'mon, was Big Hit really capable of doing sajaegi when they're almost coming to bankruptcy? They only had BTS that time as an artist, they didn't have a lot of sources of income. They couldn't possibly do this. I'm just glad that they're all past this, and is anyone else here soooo happy to see them later on win music shows over and over again - like it's already automatic?! Idols that go against them for that week were already accepting their losses since they knew BTS would definitely get the win anyways. ARMY power y'all! 💜 Tears, tears, tears when I heard MOM again from JIN. Hope you can listen to that one time soon, maybe when you do a "Jin missing hours" reactions 😅 And pls watch with it JINNIE EATS' video called "how Jin loves his mom". It's really endearing to watch 🥰 About the MV - yes please, watch the making of the MV! 😁 Just another fun fact: the company did not have a lot of budget to hire actors, etc. That's why they used their managers as extras. This is why their whole crew - the managers, dancers, stylists, all the staff were skyrocket happy when they won for the first time. Because it was truly a team success! 💜 I really wanted to keep my comment short, but it's hard when I've so many things I want to say. Gahhh!! Anyways, thanks so much again for this reaction. Looking forward to the next content we'll get into. Borahaeee 💜

Kath

Thanks J&J as always for your reaction. Some context etc… As others have pointed out it wasn’t a vacation…It’s working in a beautiful location but still work… it was as part of their 2015 summer package dvd and accompanying photobook… as part of the content they played games, tried activities… their schedule was seriously seriously packed during the trip. They did not get a proper proper holiday where they didn’t film content till 2018/2019. Coming back to the summer and later on the winter packages, they are like a cross between run BTS episodes, photoshoots and behind the scenes all together. It’s a lot of content which I highly encourage all new armies to watch alongside other content to get the full picture. Personally as part of your album reviews I highly encourage you to watch their special group album lives too which they released alongside the album… you saw some clips from it here (they explain stories about the album, they play fun games and give behind the scenes anecdotes ) you can find them easily in the section of lives on weverse if you go by year etc. as well as then the album review/unboxing live from Yoongi (And later on Namjoon.) as part of it. That’s how Army at the time lived it in real time… with the behind the scenes of the MV’s as well as the Bangtan bombs and Bangtan episodes of that time. I’d also like to take this as an opportunity (esp in line with some of your I’m sure very unintended and not maliciously meant comments during Tae’s ‘I need you’ shooting which I’m not gonna lie or sugarcoat were however unintentionally, absurd.) an ongoing reminder to yourself that the MV’s are purely purely fictional with no relation to their own lives. I always think it’s good to remind yourself each time... with an ongoing reminder as you explore more of the BU about the music being purely an OST in relation to the MV’s and short films you see. Just before your comment Tae says in the subs I’m shooting something I’ve never experienced in real life. I’ve never hit anybody let alone my father. (The words he uses to talk about JK’s scenes are different in Korean with a different joking meaning akin to horseplay but the translation doesn’t distinguish, Also added fun fact Tae’s love for his real life dad is legendary in the fandom…. Also a reminder that Tae is the person whom you just watched in Bon voyage crouch on a dirt road to blow a dandelion rather than pick it and harm it) In relation to big three privilege though diminished in the last few years partly because Hybe is now the biggest company. In 2015 it was no joke. It’s one of the reasons BTS became famous overseas and only after that then slowly in Korea. To newcomers it can be hard to describe the truly David vs Goliath battle. One very relevant but simple example of big three privilege being the ties with journalists who worked exclusively for the companies who would write favourable reviews and stories that would then be automatically placed on the trending sections of websites to be seen by the masses and form public opinions. With unfavourable articles being written about the competitors where every opportunity to create a scandal for them was used. The corruption and nepotism by the big 3 was legendary. They would even send journalists on their payroll to the press conferences of other competitors to ask purposefully controversial questions. It’s only now and in the last couple of years where the big three or two to be more precise are getting their comeuppance. The head former head of YG is currently undergoing trial in South Korea as part of a big scandal, he’s facing racketeering charges amongst other charges and it all started with stories of intimidating witness and journalists to not publish stories of a drug scandal of one of their artists etc. things that during their height of influence and power they had previously been able to hide. SM entertainment’s heads are just now being accused with Kakao of conspiring and colluding to fix share prices and prevent the takeover by Hybe etc. Despite this the media-play the big three especially YG and SM to a lesser undertake is still prevalent. To give other examples of big 3 privilege we would be here all day… but to also simplify the mentality of the fans, 8 out of 10 at that time would be a fan of the big three company artists with all choosing one company. Basically the loyalty was to the company and whatever groups or artists that debuted from them. Being a multi-stan was not a thing then and would not even be considered… the rivalry was seriously seriously bitter… artists from the companies at that time wouldn’t even be seen to be friends. YG vs SM was legendary. BTS and Bighit however came and disrupted all that eventually and also changed the landscape. To the point that I find it so strange to nowadays see multi-stans become normalised and more a thing because BTS broke the big 3 monopoly. It would be unimaginable before… even international fans who were removed from it and slightly more immune to it still adhered to some of the rules. The reason BTS was able to disrupt that was because they were doing things that were new… Also the MV concept of I need you and then the others after had never ever been done before BTS and the special ‘most beautiful moment in life’ series. Lumpens subsequently from I need you became their main director for all these years. It’s only in chapter 2 that other directors are being used in the boys solo’s. Sorry for the long comment and I’m sure I’ve forgotten a lot of other info etc, but hope some of this context helps to understand the landscape of that time a little clearer. 💜

Lauren L .

I am so damn excited for this. Don’t worry about BU spoilers. These things just file away. A lot of the info is in some of the BTS bombs and Behinds. Even in the lives. Isthmus it’s everywhere. I was so thankful when the explanation videos started coming out 😂😂😂

Kecia ⁷

I had a rough day today. I have a very sick dog and got little sleep last night staying up with him. I really needed this. To see your reaction to "the spoiler" and trying to recall Bugs Bunny - it was great escapism. Dog is crying again. Got to go, but thanks as always.

Lauren L .

Every time I hear your cat start to meow, I think one of my kids are calling me. This time I yelled “what?’ And everyone looked at me weird. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Catia🇵🇹⁷

Hi my favorite people. Thank you so very much for this reaction to rise of bangthan. I think you are safe to watch episode 9 because you have already reacted to Dope. I also whant to thank you for ready army s coment at the end. Its touching and so very true about a lot of us. BTS is our escape inspiration and they guive us something to look up to....Life is hard. Borahae💜💜💜💜💜🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹

Silvia

I’m in the middle of writing midterm evaluations for my students and as soon as I got the notification I promised myself I’d watch this reaction only if I hit my goal for the day. Most productive work session I’ve had in a while 😂 I love TRoB…are we safe for episode 9? I think so, right? Finish that album and let’s do it!

LizP⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷

Hey guys, excuse me while I gain my composure after yelling at the screen BUGS BUNNY!!! 🐰🥕😆 So, thanks for another great reaction!! I feel you inching closer and deeper into the discography. Please keep in mind that everything up to that point, BTS were the "unknowns" and underdogs. Bighit wasn't even on the map at that time. Love Is Not Over is such a jam I knew it would be right up your fortae, especially Jared's. As many patrons have already said, the "vacation" was part of their sumner package so while they did work, it was so nice watching them take advantage to have fun and relax. And by now I'm sure you know, JHope is scared of, well, just about everything 😆😆 However I'd run if someone tried to put that big ass snake anywhere near me. It looked like it was about to break him, but he got thru it and it was hilarious to watch. 😆😆 I can't wait till you dive into all the packages, Bon Voyages and other vlogs. To your patron Jaeyi, I commend your strength by sharing your story, and I'm so sorry you had to go thru that. I hope you have a life full of positivity, love and success. 🫶💜 Thanks again guys!!! 💜🫶💜🫶 p.s. sending hearts for the kitty of the house 💜🫶😻 Oh and BTW what's the news you said you wanted to share in the Boys With Fun reaction video???? I'm aging here waiting 👵👩‍🦳

JenR

Ah man I never wanted this reaction to end. It was so fun and I missed Rise of Bangtan more than I thought! I remember reading Jaeyi's comment months ago after the last chapter and being so happy that BTS found them and they were now in a place where they could share that information. Those stories are so important and I feel so special to understanding the power of BTS.

soyaspinsxxx

Missed these RoB reactions so much! 😭 It's always good to remember how relatively unknown bts were around this point, and how much work I need u did for them to catapult them to the mainstream. With dark & wild, they barely broke even, according to what they say in their book. So you can feel the desperation to make it and get their number 1 throughout this album. From here on out, it's when bangtan really rises!! For chapter 9, I would wait until you've finished the whole HYYH pt1 album and watched prologue BU video since there are snippets of that and some songs from HYYH pt2 (though you already know all of them!) Can't wait for RM mixtape part 2 🥰🥰

Glaseon_711

I've missed this documentary series so much. And your thoughts. I’ve been writing very few comments in recent months and I’m sorry :( I hope that you will check out Discord when you have some free time) 💜

claudia lecusascu ⁷

ooooo i missed rise of bangtan 🥹🥹 the father spoiler isn’t really a spoiler but more of a piece of evidence as Jared said. I think the boys do it through out the whole BU to give more context since we often don’t know what specifically happens in every scene.

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

That’s a lovely sentiment as many of us survive family violence so Jaeyi is very brave for sharing and trusting us to understand and support them. I wish them peace. 🫂💜 Seriously though Bugs Bunny 😂😂. I wouldn’t have stayed in the room with that snake! Why do they do these things to Hobi 😳😂

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

Prayers for your sweet pup for a speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

Healing is an ongoing struggle for most of us. I’m so glad you found some Liz. 🫶🏻🫂💜

viperine

I just want to say that JHope so often gets (mostly good-humored) razzing for how many things scare him.. but damn he's so inspiring.. Even when he's scared he still does these things. Often because he doesn't want to let the team down, but later in years he admits it's to push himself to learn more about his boundaries. I look up to him so much for that.

Jordyn

Love is Not Over (esp. the full version) is THAT song 🤩

LaNita Starr⁷

Ok...First... The biceps 💪🏾 👏🏽 Secondly, JK is in yellow and always in boots/Timbs...third this gave me feels. This was a good chapter, I remember hearing some of this when I did a dive on BTS. What I didn't see... the Ding Dong VLive and I use that meme all the time lol. Also I have seen and used the Jimin crying with Lipstick and never knew where ut came from, my heart 🥹 if you guys did not get Bugs... we were gonna have to have a conversation haha!! I am thuroughly enjoying going through this journey with you guys! I never expected to still have such strong emotions watching what BTS has been through, and its a deeper ocean than I expected. And its nice to see I'm not alone, just like you guys felt with other reactors to the MV. I can't wait for the full album reaction and chapter 9. And whichever videos win from that very, very, VERY unfair poll you guys just dropped. 😮‍💨 Love you guys! 💜💜💜💜 Borahae 💜💜💜 P.S. Love is not over... I thought we talked about this 🤔 And Converse High..Good Good stuff!! 👏🏽👏🏽

Saphy

Hi guys, as always, I'm enjoying the BTS journey with you. I don't want to miss anything you post. This is just a heads up for TROB Chap 9: The Most Beautiful Moment in Life. You'll hear an OST that RM did for the film 'Fantastic 4', called Fantastic feat. Mandy Ventrice. I just thought you might want to listen to it before the chapter, but course, it's up to you.

NotFunny ButFunny

pause. Dylans in Trouble??? when did he listen to bts

Sam💐M

Let me introduce you to the first time BTS performed in front of a crowd in the US. I would love for you to react to it and see how they where received by the crowd. Their is a fan cam on YouTube 27:33 long it was posted by CmegaMighty [Archives] 9 years ago. BTS-KCON 2014 in LA.. KCON is a summer concert series that features various bands from SK, BTS has just turn 1 year old as a group, this fmv captures the audience very well..

Maya

a long time ago he had a reaction chanel called Dylan Will Not Participate

just jamie⁷

Hi Jared, Jordan!!! Now that you have started i need you.. i think you gotta listen to the demo versions. See each of the members have some kind of demo versions of different songs and then they pick the best ones that will go to the album. I love the demo version for i need you. They’ve put it in cd 3 of proof album. Hope you can get to listen. You’ll love it im sure https://youtu.be/IdZWXVFmkQg?si=oZeADshqtMt1y2HH Here’s a link for boys with fun demo version too: https://youtu.be/mVZj8ODnh6E?si=8s8AuToTCJEWg5SL Thanks!!!!

Marta Sanchez

I thought Blood Sweat and Tears was their prime... I mean "blonde V" was.... 🫠 And then Tear, then ON, then RUN. They have like an eternal prime period. I can't even imagine what they'll bring when their military service comeback arrives. But I know it'll take us all to another place...
