BTS Monuments Ep. 2 (REACTION) Adolescence
🕑 Added 2023-12-30 01:00:04 +0000 UTCWhat an eye opening episode! It was good to hear the guys perspective surrounding some of the events that occurred in the past, but it was heartbreaking at the same time. Wow...
We had a lot to say during this reaction FAM. Hope you're okay with a lot of pausing, rewinding and discussion π€

There I was having this random thought that it'd be so cool if one or all of BTS watched your reactions and then WHAM....you two bust into a full fledged thumb wrestle.....with body twists and all.....oh my lordy.....lol As for Episode 2 - I am so envious of ARMY who were with them from the beginning. We know BTS and ARMY's journey is of course deeply intertwined, but to be there at the beginning to celebrate ALL their successes, amazing!! Then I want to say how much I admire Bang PD, who (by all accounts) chose to step down from the CEO position to continue producing music. He chose his personal happiness and his passion for music over....well.....power. This is his message I got from this episode - Prioritize Your Personal Happiness!!! Saying that though, for me he will always be the big head honcho there. As an ARMY (since just before Butter came out....so that makes me a Butter Baby....lol) hearing, knowing, seeing their experiences with depression, stress, anxiety, etc was alarming. Thank goodness they have each other, Bang PD, their families and friends, and their music as support systems, outlets......inlets.....and Awesome ARMY.....like us!!!

I guess there official concert would be in Korea. I also thought there first concert was the free one that performed in front of a handful of people.

Being at a theater concert I felt the same way I didn't want it to end.

ππHey Nico and Blaze! π A quick snack and handy dandy π notebooks at the ready. π I'm down for βͺ ALOT Blaze. Y'alls ARMY... π€Veterans? π BTS Monuments Beyond The Star: Episode 2! π€ COME ON!!! π I'm not gonna blame y'all if the Watch "Schedule" goes side ways. TOO MUCH drops happening in 2024: Hope On The Street, Jimin & JK's Camping content, Suchwita, whatever RM was working on that we have no dets on, Jin-aggedeon and eventual solo album drop, Hobi is done with military service in October AND whatever else Big Hit/HYBE gonna drown us with. π TROLLS be TROLLing... π° ALL this NONSENSE the guys had to go through. πππ SHOUT OUT to Bang PD! A rare πgem in the industry. π€· What can I say Nico... willful blatant ignorance is a thing... peeps be writing their own narratives in their heads instead of paying attention to what's in front of their eyes. π―hhh... Blaze be dropping π dem gems again π A REAL Artist EXPOSES the TRUE nature of a fan.

Is everything okay with Blaze? He appears to be preoccupied!!

You guys would dig Khalid 100%

I love rewatching this with you guys and hearing your thoughts. I appreciate your thoughtfulness, sensitivity, and love for BTS. I love that you guys are nerds and take notes! And youβre nerds about artistry, music, storytelling. Happy New Year, fam! π

I'm so thankful to Bang PD for bringing these 7 amazing people together. Obviously, the man has trust in BTS. No one ever knows what hardships within themselves BTS is going through until they tell us.

I agree with your hearing protection advice. I went to the Agust D concert and wore earplugs. I'm thinking I will also wear over the ears headset too. I had a fan right behind me who screamed the entire time. I just hope if I'm lucky enough to get a ticket, I'm not near another over enthusiastic fan like that again.

I agree with everything you guys are saying. I mean i could rant on for days about some of this stuff...haha (But i won't) What I will say Is that I am so tired of Solo stans, Haters, ect going on about how members should just go solo, or how this or that member is being treated a certain why or how they BTS should go with another label, or start their own label. One BTS has always stated that they don't want to break up, 2 They put so much work into BigHit and Hybe why would they leave. Also, they have a great management team behind them. 3 I don't think people realize how much work goes into starting a label. Bang PD has been so great with the guys and the guys have soo much respect for him. The other of how sincere and real BTS has been over the yrs and how others talk crap about them for them being themselves, I love what you guys said about that. I think more recently Namjoon and JK have been really talking out about that. I feel like there are still so many people that expect them to be perfect and not have any flaws. Like the thing with JK and Namjoon smoking and how they were getting so much backlash for it. I mean you can disagree with what they are doing, but that also doesn't give anyone the right to look down on or talk down on them or even start telling them what to do. I personally don't agree with it but i would never feel it was my responsiblity to tell them what they can or can't do. They are human and we should treat them as such. Like you guys said we don't own them and they don't owe us anything. They already do so much for us and have given us so much of themselves for over 10 yrs. BTS are good people and they have shown us that many times, we as ARMY don't need to add on to their hardships. This episode had me crying a few times. Only wishing for the guys' happiness and more happy memories for BTS and ARMY.

Thank god Bang PD was there as a father figure and not a money grubbing manager. He was there for them and saw how they were struggling and wanted to make sure they were happy and mentally strong before moving forward. We as Army should be proud they have this man and all the staff to support them as human beings first and musicians second, so many others do not have this kind of support

I think the 1st place RM was talking about wasn't the Artist of the Year Award - I think it was 1st place for music show wins. They seem to be talking about things in chronological order. They finally started to win first place on music shows in 2015 with The Most Beautiful Moment in Life series. Then they were able to perform at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena on their Most Beautiful Moment in Life tour - the Epilogue performance. I think that's why he said they finally got 1st place, but it was getting to perform at the Arena that made them feel like they made it. The first MAMA Artist of the Year award happened after both of those things (at the end of 2016)

I appreciate the fact that BTS are willing to share their growing pains as it helped and encourages me grow as an individual too, I'm so grateful that I have the honour to still grow alongside some of the best people that I had the pleasure to meet in my early 20's π«‘π
LazySass
The fear being a real artist revealed the true nature of the fan - Blaze and this gem so π₯ Fam π«‘ Lπ
LazySass
I love when BTS are transparent so much I'm all for and completely respect it π
LazySass
Bang PD has learnt a lot before he started Big Hit but also continued to learn after but the biggest thing is that after and while learning he's willing to apply it in the hopes for better results π€π
LazySass
Yes, Bang PD happiness for oneself as an individual is also crucial part of life too π«‘ Bang PD π

That Artist of the Year award made me so jealous of BTS like why can't I look that fine while crying π RIP Us Fugly criers π€£
Sarah
Canβt wait to watch the reaction guys. Iβm sure it will be as great as always π
LazySass
I despise the fans with the owners mentality like touch some grass, save your money and return to yourself π I'll hold the rest of my words about this subject π«‘
LazySass
Definitely the 1st time I heard BTS perform 2! 3! Live became even more emotional for me when ARMY's were singing with them π now even listening to it now I still hear it even though it's the actual CD audio π€£ and not the concert

I learned yesterday that Steve Aoki's dad is the founder of Benihana.
Rae Avilez
I should be going grocery shopping but I'm going to procrastinate and watch you guys instead. Lol! 2!3! holds a very special place in my heart. It is a record of that time and a really special moment in BTS history. I love Steve! He was so ready to run with the music. It's so freaking cute! BangPDnim is an ulti. He and Namjoon are my ults. Because I wouldn't have any of my groups if it wasn't for that man. And my groups would not be as healthy as they are if it wasn't for that man.
LazySass
2! 3! π This song helped me overcome so much
LazySass
As always blame Big Hit and BTS like us ARMY's be too damn busy and the OT7 have been on hiatus for how long now!?! π€£

I wonder what the KPop equivalent of Madison square garden is π€ hmm... Interesting

I don't mind dubbed but my patience can only wait for subbed π€£ also I've gotten too used to subs that my brain feels like there's something missing when watching stuff but the only time I realised that it became a problem was when I was expecting and looking for subs in a real life conversation to see if I understood correctly what I had just heard π
LazySass
Liked for more journals ππ
LazySass
Nico you sure Blaze liked that apple thing or was just not trying to waste your food π€£ finishing it respectfully π€£
LazySass
Looking forward to watching this with you guys, sorry been slacking on catching up on content π even when I do have time let alone focus I've been watching old BTS content currently watching Bon Voyage and BTS Summer packages π€£ and will be watching BTS's concerts for my end of year party and New Year's celebrations π₯³
