Hey Primos!

Welcome back and Happy Friday! Today we are watching Episode 86 of Run BTS! Hangul Day Special Part 1. In this episode the guys are celebrating Korean Alphabet Day or Hangul Day.

Today's mission is to collect stickers! Oh and only speak Korean while playing a trivia game. 😁 Even though we couldn't understand it all, it was still just as funny. Now we are on a mission to learn Hangul by next Friday for Part 2. If not, by Part 3 for sure.

Hope you enjoy!

I also have no idea whats going on. Just here for the vibes

The month question: Koreans usually just use 1왈, 2왈, 3왈, etc. (Pronounced eel-wol, ee-wol, saam-wol respectively, so just the number in Korean and then “wol” for “month”) So kind of like saying “Month 1, Month 2, Month 3”. In this case they were looking for a more traditional/culturally specific way to say the month, kind of like how Daniel was saying with the stories and such behind it, for example, Thursday for “Thor’s Day”.

Thank you @CCW, I enjoyed this one more watching with you. It'll be so good if we can we get 87&88 together next week!

tbh...learning Hangul is quite easy. Its everything that comes after that's difficult LOL

Min Yun-Hee

Rap line teasing Jimin, it's so funny and cute 🤣🥰💜

Sasha-Kay Adams

That's true, I learned the letters and how to write them, arrange and sound out the blocks in about 30 minutes. After that though.....

LondonNicole

Same! I learned Hangul years ago and still can only tell you about two sentences in Korean.

Tiffany

25:13 Hangul is the Korean alphabet just like we have our alphabet. Instead of being called letters they’re referred to as “characters.” So it’s not that they’re moving the shapes around to form new shapes, it’s that each character represents a certain consonant or vowel. And just like our letters you put them together to form words.

val

Lol love these episodes! Hangul is a phonetic alphabet so it’s fairly easy to read if you memorize the sound each letter makes bc it almost never changes. And all the words are made up of syllables. So kim nam joon is three syllables written as 김 남 준. And each syllable is *usually* made up of three letters written in the shape of an inverted triangle so kim = ㄱ ㅣㅁ = 김. When bts ask for the first consonants of the word as a hint it’s bc each syllable is usually written as (consonant - vowel - consonant) so they’re just asking for the first letter of each syllable and they try to guess the rest, ex. the hint is k n j = ㄱ ㄴ ㅈ = 김 남 준 = kim nam joon. Hope that helps a little! Looking forward to the rest of the episodes!

poor jimin, my baby 🥺

Crossing my fingers for both ep 87 and 88 next week!

corinne

ahhhh i really hope you guys post part 2 and 3 next week 😭 just in case you guys didn’t catch the subs at the end and they don’t explain it well enough in the next ep, i’ll try to do my best (spoiler-free!!!): they called it hide and seek but they’re not really hiding. firstly, idk if you guys caught it but at the end of pt1 aka this episode (i’ll refer to them as pt 1,2,3) the yellow paper they picked out at the end is the name of the person they’ll be the “tagger” of. the primary objective of the main game in pt2-3 is basically to put as many stickers on the back of the person you picked (i’ll just call them prey lol) without your prey or any other person knowing. if they find out (who your prey is or what color your stickers are), you’re disqualified (this is an important rule that they do mention at the end of this ep!) (staff says you can’t let others know what color stickers you have; yoongi asks what if they do; staff says you have to fake it or you’re out) the stickers come from: the hangul quiz from pt1 (joon starts with the most while jimin starts with the least), but also they can earn more stickers to put on their prey by walking around the entire venue finding hangul letters and making pure korean words. you show them to the staff and if they’re pure korean, you get more stickers. all of them will be wearing a pink sheet taped on their back where the stickers will go. they all have distinct colors of stickers so that’s where the “don’t let others find out” rule comes in. for instance, if summer sees she has blue stickers on her back and she knows that blue is daniel’s color, even if daniel put a lot of stickers on her back, he’s still disqualified (btw i swear none of this is a spoiler because the staff literally explained it to them prior) (but i won’t say any other specifics about the stickers) (iykyk). of course people will probably see you put stickers on other people’s backs but you have to make sure they can’t guess which color yours is or you’re disqualified. the person who puts the most stickers on their prey’s back without anyone guessing and knowing their color (including their prey) wins! of course there could be some people that are like let them watch how they want to! let them be confused just like everyone else when we watched it for the first time! but as somebody who fortunately had an army friend explain to me when i watched the first time basically everything that i just explained, i appreciated it so much because i enjoyed it probably more than i would have if i didn’t know what was going on half the time. it’s up to them whether or not to read this and use it for the next 2 eps 👍🏼

Manda

Ayyy I see you Gabriel wearing hobis shirt! 😝 I just went last night to day 2 in SA! ❤️‍🔥

Alice Smith

Are they saying Jimin's name correctly..the first i is pronounced as e..so his name is Je-min. I just noticed .

Randi

oh my gosh thank you. i wish i had this explanation when i first watched it.

Makayla Vante

well it can be said either way, it doesn't really matter...? the E pronunciation is the more Korean way to say it but they can say the I pronunciation in the English way

Makayla Vante

yeahhh ive learned to read korean and know what some words are (if ive heard them in BTS songs, when they talk, or K-dramas) but most of the time i dont know what they mean... but at least i can read them lol

corinne

hahaha glad it made sense :) we could always watch it again for the 20th time 🤭

Alice Smith

You explained it very well..l just hope they read your comment and aren't going in blind. Because sometimes they just blow off ready the instructions and say "we will figure it out" .lol..but you really did good.

Jeonstastic

They say it in English which is also correct

thh

I'm not native korean but I study linguistics so the way I see it is that all languages (except dead languages like Latin) are in a way 'alive' they keep on changing and evolving. The english language of today is different than the english in for example shakespearean times. We actually don't even need to go that far because comparing english now to 50 years ago would already be different. The same of course applies to Korean and any other language. So the things they have difficulty knowing in the game are either not commonly used sayings and phrases, dialects (dialects in KR can kinda be compared to normal german and swiss german vastly different but still same(?)) or words that are not commonly used anymore and have been forgotten by society. (Hope this kinda helped? Idk sorry english is in fact not my first language hahaaha)

Makara

In my culture, we don't say anything when someone sneezes. There is no such thing as "bless you." Some may say "Get the f away from me if you sneeze."

Kearyce Moore

They use characters in their korean alphabet, which took me awhile to learn during that time

Maya

the 'good job' comment: yes we say it in english, but korean phrase is more nuanced and it doesn't really translate that well. It's more like "you've worked really hard". In general, korean has so many words for expressions and feelings, that english language just doesn't have an equivalent. Example; han (meaning a sense of deep sorrow, resentment, rage, or regret) in just one simple word.

Lana

"This is not Jimin's day" 😭

Nira

So true, you can learn it within 1 hour, but learning the vocabulary, sentences and pronunciation is sooo hard

Charmaine

this episode harder to follow bc it’s centered around korean but the next 2 some of my favs

CJ

Ah. I feel their pain. I’m trilingual- (we often use our mother/first tongue, second language and the official language is English) So in school we learn all three. I precisely remember learning “names of the months” in our first language and what a disaster it was! Because we use integrated words colloquially. For example: January (in English) would colloquially be “Jana-vari”, which is very close to English and what we use everyday. But in our first language January was “Duruthu” - WAY off base from what we are used to 😅 That was a trip. Moral of the story; Studying in Asia can be a battle because not only are you learning multiple “alphabets” - you are also expected memorise completely different linguistic concepts and vocabulary.

Very interesting episode & don't worry CCW - like Daniel said it's entertaining even if one doesn't really know korean (& I'm korean & I didn't know any of these words (although... I immigrated when I was 8 so my family always jokes that I only have 2nd grade vocabulary in Korean lol) & I wholeheartedly agree - those bracket captions are SO FUNNY! Big Hit's editors are so good!

TheEmpurpler⁷

A few things about Korean language if you were curious (& it might be helpful to know for future stuff): 1) whenever they mention Chinese, it's similar to what Abby said- how some english words have Latin roots, korean words have Chinese roots. 2) korean words have evolved so many of the Qs about pure korean, even some (esp younger) Koreans won't know them (for example, last time I was in korea I noticed the highway signs said "the way out" & I asked my MiL (mother-in-law) why it doesn't say "exit" (i said the Korean word for "exit") & she said people are trying to use simpler korean words 😆 3) when they mention dialect (like there was a Q asking something in Jeju dialect) - each korean province has their own dialect & with that comes some words the people of that province use (so in English, imagine that Q would equate to asking "in Southern slang, what does y'all mean?") 4) Koreans also LOVE to use English words phonetically said in Korean - for example, the first time I visited korea, I asked my MiL for some batteries & I said the actual korean word for "battery" (건전지 "gun-jun-ji") & she was so surprised bc she said people nowadays just say 배터리 "bae-tuh-ree" & I was like Why? Why not use the actual korean word? 🤷🏻‍♀️ (Wow, sorry so long!)

Brit

Imagine trying to speak “pure” English without any loner words We have so much french

TheEmpurpler⁷

So true about how easy it is to phonetically get it (understanding it is a whole other story lol) I taught my non-Korean friend how to read (just decode) korean in about an hour by making him a conversion chart to the English sounds. So he was able to read it aloud, but not understand it obviously. Hangul/Korean is a very phonetic alphabet/language

TheEmpurpler⁷

Koreans LOVE to use English words. It's really a daily habit that has now just been built into their language. (Not just with their simple OK & go! Lots of everyday words are just English said in Korean syllables.) In fact, variety shows can have a "no English" game & Korean people would lose in only a few minutes probably!

TheEmpurpler⁷

P.S. the July Q - the translation said July but in Korean, there are no name words for the months of the year. Koreans just say month 1, month 2, or 1st month, 2nd month, etc. So in Korean, I say 4th month when saying my birthday in April.

I can't wait for the next 2 episodes, they are hilarious. Also I understand their struggle in this episodes as someone who speaks 3 languages it really gives you a headache sometimes. A lot of languages have loan word from other languages and there can be many reasons behind that. For Korean there is words with Chinese roots and English loan words. English for example has a lot of french loan words.

claudia

I hope you can watch episodes 87 and 88 next week!!

Maya

and korean language not only has chinese loan words. before hangul, koreans would use hanja (chinese characters). each hanja character also has it's meaning. I'd assume, some korean names were influenced by the meaning of hanja as well.

Maya

Seokjin is 석진 bc Jin is only his stage name so if we're writing names it should be Seokjin

HalSonyeondan

I love them teasing jimin lol cause he often teases his members too 🤣 A taste of his own medicine

Len C

Can you also do BTS FESTA Thank you

army.syaza

OMG THE HIDE AND SEEK IS ONE OF THE ICONIC ONESSS 😭😭😭😭😭😭 SOOOO EXCITED

D

I saw this the second time, and the question "What is July in Korean": in most Asian countries we followed the lunar calendar, but everything is as per the Gregorian calendar now since maybe 1940s or earlier. So urbanized millenials and Gen Zs mostly don't know the lunar months. So to answer Daniel's question, being older definitely helps as you may have listened to more such usages from the previous generation. Also the rapline and Jin were doing better because they study the language. The one where Jimin considers V ____(JK and RM caught up from the director's expression) made me laugh so much! YKIYK😋

Lindy

If Jimin would have asked me something so cutely like this, I would have literally given him ALL THE STICKERS THAT I HAD. 😭💜Why he is so cute in this all over video?

ParkMinJeon

One day , can we get a whole week or two of RUN ? 🙏🙏 You guys still have like 69 episodes left and the boys will be back soon which means new episodes of RUN and I want you guys to be caught up 😭😭

메리입니다

Oh my god, thank you for making the caption more bigger, I was like squinting my eyes and getting my face near my phone

Ss

Some random/trivial stuff that I wanna explain: the "good job" one is really difficult to translate into English. It usually is translated as good job but the nuance is off. (I'm not saying the translation is wrong, it's just cultural differences. Translate the phrase as good job would be a localization tactic, making it easier for English speaking audience to comprehend the situation.) That phrase's literal meaning would be more like "you've worked hard", "thank you for your efforts", "you must be tired" (again, none of the literal translation above is "100% correct", every one of them feels off, lol). (BTW, in normal context, good job/great work is the best choice for translating that phrase, because it fits the situation.)

kayeonii

in short, you can try to get Korean consonants are essentially distinct sounds, and the Hangul alphabets reflects the shape of the speech organs used to produce them. And the consonants can be in different combinations to produce a word in different sound, e.g. ㄴ(n) + ㅔ(eh) = 네 (neh) which means “Yes” in Korean, the consonants themselves do not have any meanings.

Seii Ami

I think you guys need to finish all Run BTS before all BTS members has comeback 🥺

Rainbow

The 'bless you' came from during the Black death era in Europe. When someone sneezes, that means they got that virus and soon will die, so others told them 'Bless you'. Since Koreans didn't have the Black death era, they don't say anything when ppl sneeze.

Lisa M T

Why would they need to watch all RUN BTS before June? That's silly, they can keep watching it after the guys are out of the military.

Lizzie

Yeah, Jimin's Hangul is always so neat. He makes it very easy to read.
