It’s interesting that you talk about being burned out on music and losing hope, because that is exactly what this song is about. The shadow on the wall is a metaphor for BTS’s fear that one day they will be burned out and lose their passion for making music. It’s like a giant black shadow that is looming over them. The lyrics are, “that would be my first death, I’ve been always afraid of.” But as the song continues they realize that nothing could completely sever their love for music, and at the end of the video Jungkook looks back and the Shadow shrinks down to nothing. I think you would also enjoy their music video for the song I Need You, and any of the solo music videos from Agust D, but especially the trilogy of Daechwita, Haegeum, and Amygdala. Those might be the most movie like music videos I have ever seen. Wildflower by RM also has a visually stunning video.

This was filmed in an actual theater once called the Million Dollar Theater, located in downtown LA. Created for theatre impresario Sid Grauman as his first Los Angeles venue, the 1918 Million Dollar Theatre was one of the earliest and largest movie palaces in the country, boasting 2,345 seats. Over the years it has been used for multiple movies and music videos.

Respectfully, this was filmed at the Los Angeles Theatre in downtown LA on South Broadway. The stairway in the grand lobby is the dead giveaway. You can also notice the difference in architecture as the LA Theatre matches the French baroque style in the video as opposed to the Spanish colonial of the million dollar theatre.

I've tried to reply to your comment twice but apparently KZitem no longer allows links in the comment section... Your information is incorrect. Black Swan WAS NOT filmed at the Million Dollar Theater. It was filmed at the Los Angeles Theatre. These are two different theatres in two different locations. You can google both websites. None of the pictures on the Million Dollar site match the rooms in the video while pictures on the Los Angeles Theatre site will verify that this is the correct location by the staircase in the lobby, RM's filmed in the Ballroom and Jin filmed in the Ladies Room. The stage pictures are unmistakable. Also Wikipedia verifies the filming location as the Los Angles Theatre.

I'm not even interested in music, yet I have listened to a lot of artists, bands, or any music acts around the world regardless of their language or popularity. So technically I have listened to a lot of different kinds of Western & Eastern music regardless of genre, whether it's pop, hip-hop, R&B, Rock, ballads, EDM, metal, etc. Whether they are a group or soloist. Yet very very very few has ever moved me. Which is kinda disappointing. Which of course includes BTS, back then I've only heard their popular songs so of course I only thought they're pretty generic and overrated. However, ever since I've actually came across and listened to their actual music, and UNDERSTOOD them. It turned my life upside down. I never thought Music can be this powerful.

Black Swan is inspired by a quote: “A dancer dies twice. The first time is when he stops dancing and this first death is much more painful” by a choreographer Martha Graham. “Black swan” is about their fear that some day they’ll lose their passion for music and this would be their first death. the small guy with swag is suga and i would definitely recommend his solo "Daechwita" As for Next BTS song "ON" will be amazing

After listening to "No More Dreams", and "We are Bullletproof pt 2", I fell in love with music again. Their music had meaning and depth to it. There were messages that gave hope to those who were lost. It was a far cry from what American music had turned into. Thank you for your reactions.

After Black Swan, many reactors do their song On, which is from the same album. On has two music videos The Kinetic Manifesto Film, which is just a choreography video with no scene changes and which I recommend to most people because the choreography for On is so intense. But also the regular music video which I think is a better recommendation for you. It only has a small bit of choreography in it, but the cinematography is insane. I actually feel a little bad for BTS, because they obviously spent the big bucks on the movie like music video, but the simple kinetic manifesto video has way more views.

Watching someone who knows video enjoy Black Swan is so satisfying. It's a gorgeous video... made by someone who really, really loves light. I really loved when they surprised you with the angled choreography, the asymmetry when you were expecting symmetry. Love seeing a pro being surprised, that moment is so special. BTS doesn't just restore faith in music, they go a good long ways toward restoring faith in humanity. They're good people. Your shorter swaggier homie is Suga. To make things more complicated, he's also Agust D when he's a soloist. His real name is Min Yoongi and we often call him Yoongi to refer to both stage names. He is pretty much the king of swag, you're reading him right. If you do his trilogy of videos... You'll really enjoy them. That's Daechwita, Haegeum, Amygdala. The first two are cinematic, basically very short movies. The third is a very different but seriously perfect (in my opinion) work of art. I also think you'd love Jimin's Set Me Free pt 2 video. It's a dance performance video but... Honestly probably unlike anything you've ever seen. I think it's really powerful and would love to see you react to it, especially because you love the dancing and Jimin really shows off in it.

This is the MV that sent me toppling down the rabbit hole (and made Jimin - blue hair - my bias because I love contemporary dance). One of the things I love about this MV is that someone involved knows how to light dance. It's a specific skill and they really got it. It wouldn't have worked nearly as well without that. And it wasn't just placement. It was how they worked with the color temperature, switching from cool to warm. I know it's probably not the case here although the warm moments have the appearance, but back when I did lighting, one of my favorite ways to light dance was to not use gel. Simply manipulate the color temperature with the lamp level. Anyway, once I watched the MV enough, I really dug into the lyrics and was blown away. And then it was all over. Best rabbit hole ever. 😃 Loved your reaction!

Both of them have multiple solo albums and amazing MVs. Agust D albums: Agust D, D2, D-Day. j-hope albums: Hope World, Jack in the Box. "Tall Rappy Dude" is RM.

As a visual storyteller you really should look into the stories and meanings behind the songs and MVs as there is so much storytelling going on in those dope shots you enjoy. This song is about their fear of falling out of love with their art and was written during a period where they felt very burned out. They talk about feeling trapped, under pressure, in the dark, and about how it would be like a death for them. At rhe start they are on the stage with a large negative space above them, echoing the later lyrics about being stuck on the ocean floor, feet dragging, which is also illustrated in the choreography happening when those lines are sung. The black and white themes, and the swan wings call back the Black Swan theme, which is both a refernce to the ballet/movie and to the notion of a Black Swan, which means a rare and negative event. The corsets on Jimin and Jungkook illustrate the theme of being constricted or under pressure. The shadows represent their fears, large, looming and animated at the start and growing more under their control towards the end. There is more but thats a few highlights.

I believe your ‘shorter swaggy homie’ is Yoongi, stage name in bts is Suga, solo alter ego Agust D. He was the one you liked and pointed out his swag in blood, sweat and tears. His solo mv’s are very much like mini movies, and visually gorgeous. He not only writes and produces his own music but comes up with the concepts and storylines for his videos. I would like to recommend another bts mv which I think you’ll like that is very different from what you have seen which is Save Me. It’s done with one shot, outside on a barren looking field, with the members moving in and out of frame, and the camera moving around, while in a choreographed routine. There’s also a behind the scenes of how it was shot too.

This reaction caused me to click subscribe so fast! Joee, my dear, this is the song for your feelings of losing your passion for your art. It's literally what this song is about. ARMY has a saying that "BTS finds you when you most need them." I think you're going to be further proof of that. A couple side notes for you: Shorter Swag Master is: Suga aka AGUST D (for his solo works) real name Min Yoongi. He has several solo works and a few solo music videos. AGUST D, Give It to Me, Deschwita, Haegeum, and Amygdala. The blue haired guy: Park Jimin. His dancing background is nothing short of phenomenal. The types of dance he's studied range from street style pop n lock/b boying to contemporary to ballet and a few styles in between. He also incorporates tumbling and martial arts movements (black belt in taekwondo, 8 years of hapkido and other mixed martial arts) into his choreography. He also has solo works: Set Me Free PT 2 and Like Crazy All members have solo music, and solo songs within the band itself. I've only shared the solo works separate from BTS. The BTS music videos I would like to see you react to are on opposite ends of the spectrum: Save Me (simple, one shot style) and ON: Kinetic Manifesto (It's also a single location, but it's overflowing with EVERYTHING)

As well as videography you also seem to love dance so you will love the dance practice for this. There is also a couple of behind the scenes shooting sketches for this. One of the m/v and one for just Jimin on his own I think. (LUMPENS produced many BTS videos) It is easy to transition between BTS dance scenes as they dance so precisely, if it wasn't for hair or clothes changing, you wouldn't know. You can see this if you watch a 'stage mix' where they mash together 2 or 3 BTS stage performances and they mesh perfectly, despite being different performances.💜

I laughed so much at your nickname for SUGA - “my short, swaggier homie” haha. ARMY sometimes also refers to him as “our lil cat rapper” - and yea, he’s fine with the nicknames 😂 When you talked about losing hope in your favorite genres of music - rap and hip hop - I think its extremely fortunate that you found BTS. Their roots are in hip-hop as they were originally going to be a hip hop group. Over their ten years (so far) they’ve done a multitude of genres, but their early albums and a lot of their solo stuff is firmly rooted in hip hop and rap. I was never a person who explored those genres because I figured they weren’t for me, and a lot of what I found I couldn’t relate to. But getting to know BTS and especially the three rappers - SUGA, RM (tall rapper guy) and J-Hope, I really have embraced the genres and even discovered other amazing artists through them. For SURE if you are a rap fan, check out the rapline solos and subunit songs. SUGA goes by Agust D in his solo work - Anthony has already told you about some of his songs and you are going to absolutely be blown away by his music videos. He has a lot to do with the concepts and ideas behind them and they are some of the most beautifully shot, movie-like MVs I have ever seen. If you react to them, do all three together if you can - “Daechwita”, “Haegeum” and then “Amygdala” in that order. The story is going to confuse you at first, but ARMY will help you out in the comments. It all boils down to SUGA (Agust D, Yoongi) battling the darker aspects of himself across these MVs. RM has two solo mixtapes and a solo album Indigo with two beautiful MVs. J-Hope released Jack in the Box and his videos for Arson and More are really cool, too - plus a collab with J Cole called On the Street that I’ve always felt has beautiful, beautiful colors, but I think you’ll also enjoy his other solo MVs “Ego” and “Daydream”. There’s just So. Much. Stuff. So many videos. For a group song, maybe try “On” next. I think you’ll appreciate both the original MV (very cinematic) and the Kinetic Manifesto film (more performance based). And also, while the SONG “Boy With Luv” may not be your thing (it’s very happy poppy cute) I think the MV may interest you as it is an homage to classic Hollywood (specifically “Singing in the Rain”) and the colors are beautiful in it. Either way I’m here for your journey!

Black Swan was the 1st BTS video I saw. The music, lyrics,dance, and video is entrancing. I am glad you have not fallen into the trap of asking "who is the Justin Timberlake" meaning which member is the star with all the other members playing supporting roles. When all 7 members perform a song, they all have fairly equal roles. Unlike Western groups, BTS sings can feature all 7, just the 3 rappers, ie just the 4 vocalist. The BTSbalbums have themes that all the songs relate to. There are solos on the albums but that solo has to serve the overarching theme of the album. Lastly, they have totally solo projects. I believe that the group can stay together because they have so many opportunities to perform different genres and solos.and group songs.

When you check out the Agust D (SUGA backwards preceded by Dt for "Daegu Town" his rap crew in his hometown of Daegu before joining BTS--... the swaggy guy) trilogy set of MVs... I HIGHLY recommend doing all three at once, even if you upload them at different times. First is "Daechwita" (an ancient style of Korean traditional music played when royalty or the royal military were marching through to let the people know), followed by "Haegeum" (a traditional Korean two-stringed instrument and it also means breaking-away-from or liberation), and the third is "Amygdala", which ties all three together and is autobiographical. All are amazing MVs on their own, but the layers and depth that they reach together is unrivaled.

There is so much beauty in their performances and in their message. Your insight into the awesomeness of their music videos is a valuable addition to enjoyment of them. I’m a fan of you pausing to analyze them. I’ve watched them dozens of times, so I’m not bothered by the pauses. And if I want to watch them uninterrupted, it’s easy to get the originals on ytube. You’ve picked a good assortment of vids to cover so far. For some more of a hip-hop vibe you might want to go back o some of their earlier vids like “Danger” or “NO”. Or for some moving imagery, check out “Spring Day.” There’s a tragic story behind it. If you want to learn more about the members, there are dozens of Getting to Know, type thing on YTube. There are also some good “Making of” background vids there. I hope you will continue on your BTS journey.

Most are saying that the guy you were talking about as the Swag dude, is Suga, though according to when you stopped the video the last person to do their part was actually Jhope, Suga jad just started his, and barely so. But either way, all of BTS is absolutely amazing, without a doubt!💜 But speaking about jhope and Suga, they are both part of the rapline. They are both incredible and have a lot of swag, but in their own very unique ways. For me mostly I would probably put swag associated with Suga more. Suga's delivery just often just pulls me right in. And he definitely seems to give off this down to earth, straight forward, swaggy feel. Jhope, I would say je is a bit harder to put just one word on to discribe him, especially when performing. Well, to start, jhope is our Dance/Performance Leader. He was a well known dancer in certain parts of South Korea even before joining BigHit and BTS. Bit I don't want to tell you too much because if you eatch Taylor's Guide to the Members, that many people, including myself, have recommended you will learn a lot of this first hand. But anyways... Jhope is our 👑 King of Performance! His stage presence is just insane, and I was told very early on after first becoming Army, that apparently at BTS's concerts, jhope's performance and stage presence is just as incredible if not more so, right there live in person. More specifically, I was told no matter who your bias is when you go to the concert, jhope will be your bias by the time you leave☺️ Sadly, haven't been able to go to any of their concerts yet. But I truly hope and pray to be able to go to one of their concerts and than I can find out for myself!! *Will always be OT7 first and foremost though!💜💜💜 -Thank you for the reaction!

I’m enjoying your reactions. BTS (and K-pop in general) pull out all the stops for their music videos. Some of them are very elaborate sets & some almost stark. There are nearly always behind the scenes videos which give a hint of how the MVs are shot.

Some other mvs that I think are cool by BTS: and members: I NEED U, DNA, Not Today, Amygdala, Daechwita, Haegeumm , Airplane, Wildflower, Set Me Free Pt. 2, Joke, and for fun, check out their very first music video where they had no budget but lots of dreams-No More Dream. There are plenty of others but these are the ones that came to mind right away. Oh and ARSON too.

Sounds like your new to BTS. If you haven't been told yet, everything in BTS's videos is intentional and has meaning. Some music videos have explanations which are good to watch and you won't believe how deep they get. Keep going down the BTS rabbit hole. There is so much to see and learn.

If you are wanting to see something a little bit more “simple” but also very impressive, I would suggest their MV for “Save Me”. I put quotes around “simple” because it’s not as flashy as their other music videos, but I think you’ll be impressed by the videography. You’ll see when you watch - NO SPOILERS, y’all!

Thanks for this reaction.:) I recommend ON kinetic manifesto film after Black Swan. Black Swan is a song that expresses their fear of losing their passion for music. And ON is their determination to overcome that fear and move on to the future. :) BTS member Jin said in his acceptance speech at the 2018 MAMA that BTS suddenly became famous worldwide and had a hard time for a year due to great pressure and fear. They even thought about disbanding. However, after a year of talking and contemplating with the members, they decided to stay in the industry only for the fans and members, and move forward. The albums that have been released since then are Map of the Soul series. The albums are filled with songs that reconsider their inner self, the relationship between the seven members, and the relationship between them and fans. Black Swan, ON, Boy with Luv, and We are Bulletproof : the Eternal are one of those songs. Boy with Luv contains a message that they will fly toward fans, not the sun, with wings attached by ARMY. After listening to Black Swan, you can better understand how they feel by reading ON's lyrics. :) And at the last October's concert in Busan, SUGA told ARMY to grow old together because they will make music for another 20 or 30 years.😭 The lyrics of BTS' songs are based on their own experiences, and their albums are organic because they contain their growth narrative. It will also be fun to listen to their albums in order and analyze them. :) Oh, there're many good Black Swan live performances. These are my favorite lives. :) BTS: Black Swan | The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon kzitem.info/news/bejne/yGdj2XqkZpxmd2U This video is one of BTS week's five live performances by Jimmy Fallon Show, which was taken in Korea non-face-to-face during the pandemic. 2020 MMA Black swan & On & Life goes on & Dynamite kzitem.info/news/bejne/saqXtmiLpIx8rJg Suga couldn't participate in the performance due to rehabilitation after his shoulder surgery, but this is one of the masterpieces. Actually, I recommend this the most, but the official video is blocked now. I think we'll see this again soon. It sometimes happens. :) BTS Black swan The Late Late Show with James Corden kzitem.info/news/bejne/joqal3VtZnSSgHo The official video is here. 😅 kzitem.info/news/bejne/2ImEymRopIina6Q

At some point I'd recommend watching A guide to BTS members: The Bangtan 7. It shows their start from literally nothing, to the success they've achieved today, despite the odds. Amazingly well done video. As far as the next music video, I'd say ON KInetic Manifesto.

Jungkook is in the balancy of the Theatre at the end. It's a complete threatre with drama studio with a dance floor and mirrors, entrance huge stair case. It'll have all the function room's with a extremely posh bar area for champagne drinks before the performance etc etc.

I would suggest either "On" (came out before Covid started) or "No" (goes way back - 2013). "No" has amazing visuals even though the boys are young, you can see the talent. "On" is titled "Kinetic Manifesto Film: Come Prima" so the visuals are meant to blow you away. Plus, BTS has hit their stride and provide an amazing ride.

Next I’d suggest BTS’s On Kinetic Manifesto 💜 Also, swaggy lil rapper is Suga aka Agust d, I’d highly recommend his solo work. Starting with Daechwita I also think you’d love deep diving BTS’s rap line stuff🤌 I suggest starting with my fav tracks Ddaeng & Ugh! Neither has a music video, but there are subtitled performances. And the word play is insane I always enjoy when reactors pair them with lyric analysis videos, the DKDKTV ones are good.

I'm glad you liked this video! I was pretty sure you would. It's in such a beautiful location! Jimin (blue hair) is probably the best of the group at modern dance, he really stands out here. The shorter, swag rapper is Suga (aka Agust D) while the tall rapper is RM (aka Namjoon). Namjoon is the leader of the group and basically who the group was built around.
