BTS - IDOL Explained by a Korean

Loved the explanation! This is my favorite BTS song, and now I like it even more! I'm curious about the scenario and clothes when RM starts singing and dancing "can call me artist, can call me idol". The arcs look like capitals (a type of arc that reminds ancient rome), so I don't know if it is a reference to the western culture, or maybe if it gives the idea of exploration of the world or sth (does that make sense?). Anyone know? Thanks 😊

I love u chanel..thank for indonesia subtitle

Thanks for taking out time to explain this clearly and precisely. Makes me imagine how much time and energy was put into this.

I like its idool

How smart they are ..

No group will ever be as good as NTS

I love your breakdowns of these bts videos ❤

I love these videos. Sorry I’m so late to discover them.

Wow I didn’t realize that BTS was such a smart Alec 😉

Wow

Mind blowing up explanation! 👏 There’s a lot reference in the vid but I don’t understand it. Now i know. Thank you David.

BTS's songs are good but the story behind them are more amazing. That's why i love them the most

Just wow. This explanations are more unique and fulfilling than finding treasure during a hunt! Well hidden meaning, such articulations of words and synonym sounds. Im blown away by the amount of knowledge I get from one song after another by BTS. Thank you again. I love that you helping us Army's to understand the depth and fun factor on BTS songs💜 . Keep them coming. Borahae!

Wao, muchas cosas que no lo habia tomado en cuenta ahora se entiende muchísimo mejor la canción

I LOVE YOUR videos when you explain everything . Jnhave always loved Korean history ans folk lore . I wanr you to keep doing them .

I LOVE YOUR explaination

About the shooky drawing there is an explanation to it in one of bts bomb episode.
Suga explain that it's not shooky but a man eating monster (a monster that eat human) , that is 18meters tall and 13 meters wide. Sorry for my bad english

It's interesting that a whale is the symbol for a rich, powerful person in the Korean culture because in Las Vegas, where I live, a whale is a top tier wealthy gambler often from Asia but can be anywhere. When a whale comes to visit the city the resort he stays in becomes particularly attentive to him.

Thx so much for the video

well damn, every word has a theory 💜😬

I keep watching this explanation. It's just so amazing. Just love it.

Thank you for this interesting theory!

Sooooo beautiful 😍💜.
Such detailings make them the best.

i love bts and dkdktv

The Sun never sets on the BANGTAN empire. Periodt

es fascinante

This explanation was really something...wow...I never knew idol mv had so many references..with regards to Korean tradition,legend, culture etc...perfect👌

Wow 👏👏👏💜💜💜

BTS each song/music video seems to have so much deep meaning. My mind is blown away. They are really so talented. I hope in western industry and many haters will see this kind of videos and understand the vibe of BTS: that it's not all about their appearance and dance

Wow, siento que aprender más el transfondo de las canciones te hace darte cuenta que no son tan "simples" las canciones de bts SINO MUUUUUUY PROFUNDAS, ME ENCANTA

well explained. the cultural references are very much appreciated after your explanation.

i'll never look at the cute innocent kore drawing the same way again damn

Omg! I had no idea they was so deep!! I wanna know MORE!!!

7 weeks back I heard some portion of idol song on amazon radio while working in office. The portion that took my focus from work was -"ursu jiwajah" and I was about to change the song since it was not a language I was able to understand though catchy.. same time I also heard "deonggideok kungdeoreoreo"(thanks for providing the spelling), I was stuck mid way smiling what was THATTT!.. then I listened to the song from first ... lovedd it.. but didnt undergand that specific 2 or 3 words.. I was flabbergasted because I am someone who catch on repeating words very fast... again and again I kept hearing it until I came home. Then during dinner I saw the song.. it was mind blowing.. saw the translation... wanted to know artists...who what etc... within a span of 2 days I was bingeing bts thru out the day .. performances, interviews, why what who how ... all their songs lyrics tunes .. the impact was so good... I was confused if was alive for 5 yrs and how I had never known this group 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 now all 3 of my friends and full family know about bts 😅. They are such mood lifters and love their songs, love how they carry the ethics and responsibility towards society. Overall they are doing amazing amazing job. Being a nerd I am someone who plays songs and gets work done or listen to audiobooks while solving issues and number crunching at office. I never have never been this addicted to any specific singer or group of artists before to the point where I spent my entire christmas leaves to know about them and watch their songs and performances.😅😅God bless the guys, they are hard working and committed to quality content.
P.s - Since 2 days now I realised they are samsung galaxy ambassadors after seeing few ad ... 🤣🤣🤣 I am suddenly proud about my phone x earbuds etc

I am LOVING your BTS explanations! I am a new fan of BTS as learning as much as I can but I will admit that much of their music goes over my head because, I know that despite reading the lyrics in English, there is so much nuance that I am missing. Your videos help me understand and appreciate BTS and their brilliance on another level. Thank you! It would be awesome if you had a BTS Explained playlist where it was easy to find all the BTS song explanations in one place :)

SO. GOOD.
Thank you for all the cultural insider info that I had no idea about. The rabbit in the moon always puzzled me. Like "I know it means SOMETHING! Theres ALAWAYS a meaning!" Thank you!

Like in "Cypher 4" RM rapps "Even if you don’t like me, you know me

Even if you don’t like me, you know me

I like hate comments more than no comments

I don’t know you

But you know my name."

Both songs are saying "keep talking about us.
That keeps our name on people's toungs. Keeps us part of the global conversation.
We will live on in peoples memories long after we & you are gone. But no one will remember you."

...or sometging like that.😉💜

Wow, this was so interesting, I had no idea!! thanks! :)

Thanks for clearly explanation.

"what are you chit chatting about mind ur own business" only Koreans will understand
me an Indian who clearly understands: ma I'm a Korean now lamo
I have been in this fandom since 2015 but I only came across this channel now TT and I'm in love with listening to the explanations now
